Dendrite formation severely compromises further development of zinc ion batteries. Increasing the nucleation overpotential plays a crucial role in achieving uniform deposition of metal ions. However, this strategy has not yet attracted enough attention from researchers to our knowledge.

Although transition metal-based anodes for batteries are preferred owing to their higher energy density, the potential for structural collapse due to volume expansion has hindered their development. Herein, a simulated cellular structured anode composed of uniform nanoparticles and wrapped polydopamine is designed to direct the electronic/ionic diffusion channel and effectively address the volume expansion problem. The controlled-release effects of the polymer between the nano-interface protect the three-dimensional (3D) structures from collapsing during the electrochemical process.

In particular, we examined the association of family resilience profiles with the psychosocial adjustment of children, and identified the socio-demographic correlates of these latent profiles.
Design And Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted at comprehensive hospitals and children hospitals in three cities (Hangzhou, Ningbo and Wenzhou) of Zhejiang province, China.
