Abstract:
Organic carbonyl compounds as electrode materials have exhibited promising candidates for application in next -generation aqueous rechargeable batteries. However, a primary concern that is poor cycling performance are still remains due to high solubility of discharge products, which greatly limits their broader application. Herein, we developed a strategy to enhance the cyclability of aqueous zinc-organic batteries (AZOBs) by the terminal imidization and lateral pi-system extension of perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylic dianhydride (PTCDA). This strategy resulted in a perylene-based imide derivative with larger pi-conjugated structure (2PDI), significantly inhibiting the solubility in an aqueous electrolyte. As expected, 2PDI as cathode offered a discharge capacity of 72.8 mA h g-1 at a current density of 100 mA g-1, and even retaining 99.4% capacity after ultralong 50 000 cycles at 3000 mA g-1. Its mechanism of reversible co-insertion Zn2+/H+ at the carbonyl site was verified via electrochemical tests and ex-suit characterizations. Moreover, density functional theory calculation (DFT) also revealed this co-insertion mechanism.
