Abstract: Aqueous Zn-ion batteries (AZIBs) are promising for the next-generation large-scale energy storage. However, the Zn anode remains facing challenges. Here, we report a cyclodextrin polymer (P-CD) to construct quasi-single ion conductor for coating and protecting Zn anodes. The P-CD coating layer inhibited the corrosion of Zn anode and prevented the side reaction of metal anodes. More important is that the cyclodextrin units enabled the trapping of anions through host-guest interactions and hydrogen bonds, forming a quasi-single ion conductor that elevated the Zn ion transference number (from 0.31 to 0.68), suppressed the formation of space charge regions and hence stabilized the plating/striping of Zn ions. As a result, the Zn//Zn symmetric cells coated with P-CD achieved a 70.6 times improvement in cycle life at high current densities of 10 mA cm-2 with 10 mAh cm-2. Importantly, the Zn//K1.1V3O8 (KVO) full-cells with high mass loading of cathode materials and low N/P ratio of 1.46 reached the capacity retention of 94.5% after 1000 cycles at 10 A g-1; while the cell without coating failed only after 230 cycles. These results provide novel perspective into the control of solid-electrolyte interfaces for stabilizing Zn anode and offer a practical strategy to improve AZIBs.
