Making Batteries Fearless of High-Temperature Tests

Driven by the global energy transition and the “dual carbon” goals, the development of large-scale energy storage technologies featuring high safety, low cost and long cycle life has become a shared focus of the scientific research and industrial communities. Aqueous zinc-metal batteries are regarded as one of the most promising next-generation energy storage systems due to their intrinsic safety, abundant raw material resources, environmental friendliness and high theoretical energy density. However, their industrialization has long been hindered by a critical bottleneck—severe performance degradation under high-temperature conditions. Elevated temperatures accelerate water activity and side reactions, leading to uncontrollable dendrite growth and corrosion of the zinc anode, which drastically shortens battery lifespan. […]
