Abstract

A separator (UiO-dcbdt-Zn@GF) modified by Zn-thiocatecholate functionalized MOF is proposed. Benefiting from the unique [S-‒Zn–S-] zincophilic moieties, UiO-dcbdt-Zn@GF ensures a uniform distribution of zinc ion flux, enhances ion migration kinetics and assists in the desolvation of hydrated zinc ions, thereby promoting the reversibility of Zn anode in Zn ion batteries.
