However, aqueous ZICs frequently encounter several difficulties, comprising low coulombic efficiency, low Zn anode deposition/stripping efficiency, hydrogen evolution, fast capacity decay, and Zn dendrite formation. Hence, to inhibit the formation of Zn dendrites, it is important to tune the electrolyte and the electrode/electrolyte interface. Herein, the key problems are tackled by using choline‐based electrolytes. ZIC with ZnCl 2 in the presence of choline chloride yields good capacity and inhibits Zn dendrite formation due to the adsorption of choline at the interface. To further increase the energy density of the device, redox‐active choline anthraquinone sulphonate (ChAQS) additives are synthesized and incorporated into the ChCl/ZnCl 2 system. The constructed graphene‐based aqueous ZIC with the novel (ChCl/ ChAQS /ZnCl 2 ) electrolyte system shows a high specific capacity of 460 F g −1 and a high energy density of 185 Wh kg −1 at 0.25 A g −1 . These outcomes demonstrate an innovative pathway to fabricate biobased redox electrolytes for emerging sustainable energy storage devices. 10.1002/batt.202500406 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ |
