Dr. Chen Jizhang’s Team Published Two High-Level Research Papers

Recently, Prof. Chen Jizhang of the College of Materials Science and Engineering NFU and Prof. Wang Zhengping of Georgia Institute of Technology has jointly published a paper titled " Cotton-derived cellulose film as a dendrite-inhibiting separator to stabilize the zinc metal anode of aqueous zinc ion batteries " in the journal ‘Energy Storage Materials’ (Impact factor 17.789). NFU was the first completion unit. Zhou Weijun, a PhD candidate of NFU was the first author. Another research result of the team was published in ‘Advanced Materials’ (impact factor 30.849) entitled "Realizing an All-Round Hydrogel Electrolyte toward Environmentally Adaptive Dendrite-Free Aqueous Zn–MnO2 Batteries". NFU was the first completion unit. Chen Minfeng, a PhD candidate of NFU was the first author; Prof. Chen Jizhang, Prof. Yao Yagang of Nanjing University and Prof. Wang Zhengping of Georgia Institute of Technology were the co-corresponding authors.

The achievement was funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China and Nanjing Forestry University.
