Dynamic Axial Ligand Dissociation Drives Solvent Trapping and Solvation-Shell Reconstruction for Ultra-Long-Life Aprotic Zinc Batteries.

Organic electrolytes can circumvent the hydrogen evolution reaction of aqueous electrolytes, but their high desolvation energy results in slow electrochemical kinetics. Here, an axial ligand dissociation mechanism guided by a dual-descriptor framework combining Mulliken charge and maximum values of electrostatic potent...
