The hydrophobic internal cavity and hydrophilic external surface of cyclodextrins (CDs) render promising electrochemical applications. Here, we report a comparative and mechanistic study on the use of CD molecules (α-, β-, and γ-CD) as electrolyte additives for rechargeable Zn batteries. The addition of α-CD in aqueous ZnSO4 solution reduces nucleation overpotential and activation energy of Zn plating and suppresses H2 generation. Computational, spectroscopic, and electrochemical studies reveal that α-CD preferentially adsorbs in parall
