Elucidating Synergistic Mechanisms of Anion–Cation Electrolyte Additive for Ultra–Stable Zinc Metal Anodes Uncontrollable dendrite formation and rampant parasitic reactions in Zinc (Zn) metal anodes obstruct the practical application of aqueous Zn–metal batteries (AZMBs). Herein, we demonstrate a synergistic cation–anion regulation strategy to stabilize Zn metal anodes using NaI as a proof–of–concept additive for the ZnSO4 electrolyte system.
