ABSTRACT
We report zinc cobalt-layered double hydroxides (ZnCo-LDH) as the active cathode materials for the development of high-performance Zn-ZnCo batteries. Electrochemical investigations show the battery's capacity increases linearly with increasing the ZnCo-LDH loading (up to 60 mg cm-2). The resulting Zn-ZnCo battery exhibits excellent rate performance and cycle stability, retaining 86% of its capacity even after 5000 cycles of testing. By incorporating ZnCo-LDH with a Pt/C-coated gas diffusion layer to form an integrated multifunctional air-cathode, we demonstrate a hybrid Zn battery, which combines the merits of Zn-ZnCo and Zn-air batteries to show a characteristic two-stage charge-discharge voltage profile. The current work demonstrates the linear relationship between the battery capacity and the active material loading. The results also highlight that a greater battery capacity requires further increasing of loading though very challenging.
