Abstract The high redox potential of Zn0/2+ leads to low voltage of Zn batteries and therefore low energy density, plaguing deployment of Zn batteries in many energy-demanding applications. Though employing high-voltage cathode like spinel LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 can increase the voltages of Zn batteries, Zn2+ ions will be immobilized in LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 once intercalated, resulting in irreversibility. Here, we design a polymer hetero-electrolyte consisting of an anode layer with Zn2+ ions as charge carriers and a cathode layer that blocks the Zn2+ ion shuttle, which allows separated Zn and Li reversibility. As such, the Zn‖LNMO cell exhibits up to 2.4 V discharge voltage and 450 stable cycles with high reversible capacity, which are also attained in a scale-up pouch cell. The pouch cell shows a low self-discharge after resting for 28 days. The designed electrolyte paves the way to develop high-voltage Zn batteries based on reversible lithiated cathodes. |
