The key challenges in aqueous zinc-manganese dioxide batteries(MnO_(2)//Zn)are their poor electrochemical kinetics and stability,which are mainly due to low conductivity and the inevitable dissolution of MnO_(2).A syn-ergistic combination of a Co-doped𝜎σ-MnO_(2)electrode(Co-MnO_(2))and a Co(CH_(3)COO)_(2)•4H_(2)O(CoAc)electrolyte additive is here developed to design a high-performance aqueous MnO_(2)//Zn battery(denoted as a Co-MnO_(2)//Zn battery with CoAc).The introduction of Co ions(Co^(3+)/Co^(2+))into the𝜎σ-MnO_(2)electrode is achieved via a facile one-step electrodeposition *** from the synergistic coupling effect of the Co-MnO_(2)electrode and the CoAc electrolyte additive,the fabricated Co-MnO_(2)//Zn battery with CoAc shows a commendable dis-charge capacity of 313.8 mAh g^(−1)at 0.5 A g^(−1),excellent rate performance,excellent durability over 1000 cycles(∼92%capacity retention at 1.0 A g^(−1))and admirable energy density(439.3 Wh kg^(−1)),which is a significant improvement compared with an un-doped𝜎σ-MnO_(2)//Zn battery.
