![]() We report that competing Faradaic reactions occurring on the electrode surface is the source of the phenomenon. ![]() Here we use electroanalytical Rotating-Disk Electrode (RDE) studies in a three-electrode electrochemical cell to elucidate the fundamental origin of moss-like growth of metals. The moss-like deposits are fragile and cause premature failure of batteries by chemical, physical, and mechanical pathways. Uncontrolled crystal growth during electroreduction of reactive metals in liquid electrolytes produces porous, low-density, mossy metal deposits that grow primarily along the surface normal vector to a planar electrode substrate. ![]()
