A Si<sub>3</sub>N<sub>4</sub>-modified cellulose/glass fiber hybrid separator inhibiting zinc dendrites and cathode dissolution for aqueous zinc-ion batteries
A sandwich-structured separator with Si<sub>3</sub>N<sub>4</sub>-modified cellulose nanofiber layers on glass fiber is designed. The modified separator inhibits zinc dendrites through the zincophilicity of Si<sub>3</sub>N<sub>4</sub> and cathode dissolution through weak interactions with VO<sub>2</sub><sup>+</sup>. Benefiting from this dual-functional design, the full cells exhibit excellent electrochemical performance at low current densities.
