Despite their intrinsic safety and cost-effectiveness, aqueous zinc (Zn)-organic batteries have been struggling with the rapid performance degradation arising from the poor reversibility of Zn anodes and the dissolution of cathodes. Here, we present a new aqueous eutectic electrolyte by coupling a hydrated Zn salt (Zn(ClO4)(2)center dot 6H(2)O) exclusively with a neutral ligand (succinonitrile) to mitigate these issues. The unique aqua Zn2+ solvates with a succinonitrile-assisted solvation shell enable an unusual Zn/Zn2+ reversibility of 98.4% Coulombic efficiency along with smooth Zn deposition. Moreover, all water molecules contribute to the formation of the eutectic network, resulting in a delayed oxidation and suppressed solvating ability. When a quinone-based polymermaterial (38 wt% sulfur content) is utilized as a cathode, the Zn-organic battery with this aqueous eutectic electrolyte exhibits an unprecedented cyclability with a low capacity decay rate (0.004% per cycle over 3,500 cycles) and superior low-temperature performance. |
