Abstract
Aqueous zinc-ion batteries(AZIBs)have become a hotspot for electrochemical energy storage owing to the high safety,low cost,environmental friendliness,and favorable rate performance.However,the seri-ous dissolution of cathode materials in aqueous electrolytes would lead to poor cyclability,which should be addressed before commercialization.Herein,we designed a Ti-doped V2O5 with yolk-shell microspher-ical structure for AZIBs.The Ti doping stabilizes the crystal structure and relieves the dissolution of V2O5 in aqueous ZnSO4 electrolyte.The optimized sample,Ti0.2V18O4.9,delivers a high capacity(355 mAh/g at 0.05 A/g)as well as good capacity retention(89%after 2500 cycles at 1.0 A/g).This work provides an ef-fective strategy to mitigate the dissolution of cathode material in aqueous ZnSO4 electrolyte for cyclability enhancement.
