Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of water-based zinc-ion batteries, and more specifically, relates to a water-based zinc-ion battery electrolyte and a battery. Background technique [0002] The development of renewable energy urgently requires the development of high-safety, low-cost, and long-life large-scale energy storage technologies. Lithium-ion batteries are electrochemical energy storage devices widely used in portable electronic products and electric vehicles, and have the characteristics of high energy density and good cycle stability. However, the shortage of lithium resources and the flammability of organic electrolytes pose many economic challenges and safety hazards, limiting their application in large-scale energy storage. Therefore, it is urgent to explore other alternative battery systems. [0003] Aqueous zinc-ion battery is a new type of secondary battery developed in recent years, which has attracted extensive attention due to th...
