    A natural solvent-based gel electrolyte for stable and sustainable zinc-ion batteries
    (Wiley, 2026) Kömürcüoğlu, Gökçe; Adhami, Sadaf; Yaman Uzunoğlu, Gülşah; Yüksel, Recep
    Natural solvent-based electrolytes are increasingly sought for zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs) as they provide a sustainable and cost-effective means to regulate water activity and electrode–electrolyte interfacial chemistry while retaining the intrinsic safety of aqueous systems. Herein, a sustainable electrolyte formulation utilizing a chia seed (CS)-based hydrogel is reported as an effective approach to improve the electrochemical stability of ZIBs. Owing to its high content of hydroxyl-rich polysaccharides and phenolic compounds, the chia seed-derived gel electrolyte (CSGE) tailors the Zn2+ solvation environment, decreases free-water activity, and restrains parasitic hydrogen evolution as well as dendritic zinc growth. Benefiting from this regulated solvation environment, the CSGE achieved a remarkably high Zn2+ transference number of 0.84. Consequently, Zn//Zn symmetric cells demonstrated outstanding electrochemical stability exceeding 4000 h at 1.0 mA cm−2 and 1.0 mAh cm−2. Moreover, Zn//V2O5 cells achieved a high discharge capacity of 337.8 mAh g−1 at 0.1 A g−1 and maintained reliable rate performance between 0.2 and 10 A g−1. In addition, ex situ SEM and XRD analyses revealed homogeneous deposition of Zn with a preferred (002) orientation. These findings demonstrate that electrolytes derived from renewable resources provide a cost-effective route for stable and sustainable ZIBs.

    Flaxseed-based green electrolyte enabling high electrochemical stability for advanced zinc ion batteries
    (Wiley, 2026) Arıkan, Yiğit Berke; Kömürcüoğlu, Gökçe; Adhami, Sadaf; Yaman Uzunoğlu, Gülşah; Yüksel, Recep
    This study presents a green and sustainable electrolyte derived from flaxseeds (FS) aimed at enhancing the electrochemical stability of zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs), thereby reducing the occurrence of free water molecules and alleviating the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) that contributes to the development of zinc (Zn) dendrites. The abundant hydroxyl groups present in polysaccharides and phenolic compounds within the flaxseeds coordinate with Zn2+, modifying the solvation sheath and reducing HER activity. Zn//Zn symmetric cells utilizing the FS-based electrolyte exhibited remarkably stable cycling for 3000 h at a current density of 1.0 mA cm−2 (1.0 mAh cm−2) and 2500 h at 2.0 mA cm−2 (2.0 mAh cm−2). Zn//V2O5 full cells delivered a discharge capacity of 233.8 mAh g−1 at 0.2 A g−1 and excellent rate capability across a wide current density range of 0.2–10 A g−1 . The ex situ SEM and XRD results confirmed uniform Zn deposition along the (002) plane without dendrite formation. This work demonstrates a biomass-derived, low-cost electrolyte formulation strategy that effectively stabilizes Zn interfaces, providing a green and efficient pathway for next-generation zinc-ion batteries.
