Zinc metal batteries show tremendous applications in wide-scale storages still impeded by aqueous electrolytes corrosion and interfacial water splitting reaction. Herein, a zincophobic electrolyte containing succinonitrile (SN) additive is proposed, the SN electrolyte shows a lower affinity for zinc...
