Harnessing Weak Monomer Miscibility to Create Porous Microdomains in Polymer Electrolytes for Zinc-Ion Batteries

Key Points

• The central aim is to overcome challenges in zinc-ion batteries by designing an effective polymer electrolyte.
• Developed an amphiphilic ionogel electrolyte
• Analyzed dendrite growth at the anode
• Investigated parasitic reactions in the system
• The ionogel electrolyte significantly reduced dendrite formation
• Improved battery cycling stability was observed
• Indicated lower parasitic reactions compared to traditional electrolytes
