Title: Dendrite-Free Lithium Anode via a Homogenous Li-Ion Distribution Enabled by a Kimwipe Paper

Journal Article · · Advanced Sustainable Systems

In this study, kimwipe (KW) paper is utilized, for the first time, to realize a dendrite-free Li-electrode surface. The polar functional groups of KWs facilitate a homogeneous Li-ion distribution and smooth Li redeposition. Therefore, placing a sheet of KWs on the top of a Li anode significantly improves the reversibility of Li anode.
