Quantitative corrosion framework for anti-corrosive passivation design to extend calendar life in lithium metal batteries.
Article in Nature communications, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Reactive lithium metal renders it prone to corrosion, which severely limits calendar life and practicality in energy storage. Despite its importance, corrosion-induced degradation remains largely qualitative and lacks a clear mechanistic understanding. Here, we present a quantitatively integrated and experimentally validated framework that correlates lithium corrosion with interphase growth kinetics and interfacial morphological evolution. Guided by this model, a bi-layered anti-corrosive passivation layer composed of lithium polyacrylate embedded with lithium silver alloy-fluoride interphase is rationally designed. The outer polymer-rich layer resists swelling and blocks corrosion, while the underlying LiAg/LiF-rich interphase enhances interfacial transport kinetics. Operando X-ray microscopy reveals that calendar-aged lithium regions are particularly vulnerable to accelerated corrosion, which intensifies dendritic formation and is effectively suppressed by the passivation layer. Consequently, full-cells show a high-rate capacity of 133 mAh g
