Tailoring Solvation Chemistry towards Concurrent Hydrolysis-Free I -/I + Redox and Reversible Zn Anode in Zn-I 2 Batteries

Chem. Commun., 2026, Accepted Manuscript DOI: 10.1039/D6CC00648E, Communication Zhihao Zhao, Fanglin Wu, Huihua Li, Huang Zhang A multicomponent hybrid electrolyte enables a reversible four-electron I⁻/I⁺ redox process in Zn–I2 batteries. Composed of N,N dimethylacetamide, NaCl, ZnSO4, and tetramethylammonium iodide, this electrolyte redesigns the solvation structure to...
