Rechargeable zinc-ion batteries (RZIBs) are mostly powered by aqueous electrolytes. However, uncontrolled water interactions often confer a small voltage window and poor battery capacity retention. Here, we explore replacing water with ethylene glycol as the primary solvent in zinc electrolyte formu...
