Highlights Cyclohexanedodecol (CHD) could facilitate the Zn dendrite-free plating/stripping at a nanoscale. The CHD molecules could effectively modify the hydrated Zn(H 2 O) 6 2+ structure in aqueous Zn ion batteries. The addition of CHD could establish robust protection layers on the Zn electrode s...
