Ternary Eutectic Electrolyte for Flexible Wide‐Temperature Zinc‐Ion Batteries from −20 °C to 70 °C

Abstract Aqueous Zn‐ion batteries (ZIBs) have attracted attention for grid applications due to their cost‐effectiveness and high security. However, their lifespan decreases at high temperatures due to declining interfacial stability and increased side reactions. To address these challenges, a ternary deep eutectic solvent‐based flexible electrolyte, comprised of Zn(ClO 4 ) 2 ⋅ 6H 2 O, butanedinitrile (BD), and LiCl in an amphoteric polymer matrix, was developed to enable wide‐temperature ZIBs working from −20 °C to 70 °C. The interactions among BD, Li + , and zinc hydrate alongside the amphoteric groups on the polyelectrolyte matrix could effectively suppress the interfacial side reactions and Zn dendrites formation. Consequently, the symmetric Zn cell demonstrates exceptional stability across a wide‐temperature range, with the ability to survive up to 2780 hours (1 mA cm −2 ) at 50 °C. Furthermore, the flexible Zn||PANI battery can operate stably over 1000 cycles at 50 °C, boasting an initial specific capacity of 124.8 mAh g −1 and capacity retention rate of 87.9 % (3 A g −1 ). This work presents an effective strategy for designing high‐stability energy storage devices with excellent security features that can function reliably across diverse temperature conditions.
