Abstract:
In this protocol, we present a modified gradient coating strategy for zinc anodes. We describe steps for synthesizing electrodes, measuring electrochemistry, and assembling and testing batteries. The protocol can be applied for broadening design ideas of functional interface coating. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Chen et al. (2023).1.
