Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of energy storage devices, and particularly relates to an aqueous zinc ion energy storage device, which comprises a positive electrode, a negative electrode, an isolating membrane and an electrolytic solution, wherein the electrolytic solution comprises a solvent and a solute, and also comprises an additive, and the additive is a water-soluble chelating agent. Compared with the prior art, by adding the low-cost chelating agent additive into the zinc salt electrolytic solution of the secondary battery system, the chelating molecules can be adsorbed on the surface of a negative electrode so as to inhibit side reaction between active metal and the electrolytic solution and improve the corrosion resistance, and the zinc ions on the surface are more difficult to separate from the chelating agent for deposition to increase the deposition overpotential so as to promote the active metal to have more uniform deposition sites in the deposition process while the water-soluble chelating agent molecules are adsorbed on the surface of the zinc negative electrode, so that surface local charges can be uniform, and then the dendrite-free metal negative electrode is obtained.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of energy storage devices, in particular to a water system zinc ion energy storage device. Background technique [0002] Currently, ZnSO 4 It is a more suitable cheap zinc salt, and its aqueous solution is due to Zn 2+ The hydrolysis is weakly acidic, and is widely used in secondary aqueous zinc-ion batteries. But in the aqueous electrolyte, due to the Zn 2+ with H 2 There is a strong solvation effect between O molecules, making Zn 2+ During desolvation, a higher energy barrier needs to be jumped to convert Zn 2+ From zinc sulfate-hydrated ion association ([Zn(H 2 O) 6 2+ SO 4 2- ]) in the solvation sheath to detach from the process of zinc deposition, resulting in low coulombic efficiency of zinc anode. At the same time, Zn 2+ During the desolvation process of the negative electrode interface, a large amount of active water molecules will be released on the negative electrode surface, which will...
