Abstract: | Aqueous Zn-iodine (I2) batteries are attractive for large-scale energy storage. However, drawbacks include, Zn dendrites, hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), corrosion and, cathode 'shuttle' of polyiodines. Here we report a class of N-containing heterocyclic compounds as organic pH buffers to obviate these. We evidence that addition of pyridine /imidazole regulates electrolyte pH, and inhibits HER and anode corrosion. In addition, pyridine and imidazole preferentially absorb on Zn metal, regulating non-dendritic Zn plating /stripping, and achieving a high Coulombic efficiency of 99.6% and long-term cycling stability of 3,200 h at 2 mA cm⁻², 2 mAh cm⁻². It is also confirmed that pyridine inhibits polyiodines shuttling and boosts conversion kinetics for I-/I₂. As a result, the Zn-I₂ full battery exhibits long cycle stability of > 25,000 cycles and high specific capacity of 105.5 mAh g⁻¹ at 10 A g⁻¹. We conclude organic pH buffer engineering is practical for dendrite-free and shuttle-free Zn-I₂ batteries. |
