Uncovering ZnS growth behavior and morphology control for high-performance aqueous Zn-S batteries.
Article in Chemical science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Aqueous Zn-S batteries provide competitive energy density for large-scale energy storage systems. However, the cathode active material exhibits poor electrical conductivity especially at the discharged state of ZnS. Its morphology generated in cells thus directly determines the cathode electrochemical activity. Here, we reveal the ZnS growth behavior and control its morphology by the anion donor number (DN) of zinc salts in electrolytes. The anion DN affects the salt dissociation degree and furthermore sulfide solubility in electrolytes, which finally determines ZnS growth preference on existing nuclei or carbon substrates. As a result, 3D ZnS is realized from the high DN ZnBr
