In the field of lithium-based batteries, there is often a substantial divide between academic
research and industrial market needs. This is in part driven by a lack of peer-reviewed …

Growth in intermittent renewable sources including solar and wind has sparked increasing
interest in electrical energy storage. Grid‐scale energy storage integrated with renewable …

Solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) and hydrogel electrolytes were developed as electrolytes
for zinc ion batteries (ZIBs). Hydrogels can retain water molecules and provide high ionic …

Abstract In the literature, Zn–Mn aqueous batteries (ZMABs) confront abnormal capacity
behavior, such as capacity fluctuation and diverse “unprecedented performances.” Because …

Recent years have witnessed the renaissance of aqueous Zn-ion batteries (AZIBs).
Nevertheless, the current development of high-performance AZIBs is confronted by the rapid …

Aqueous zinc batteries are appealing devices for cost-effective and environmentally
sustainable energy storage. However, the zinc metal deposition at the anode strongly …

The unstable Zn interface caused by undesired dendrites and parasitic side reactions
greatly impedes the deployment of aqueous Zn metal batteries. Herein, an efficient …

In situ formation of a stable interphase layer on zinc surface is an effective solution to
suppress dendrite growth. However, the fast transport of bivalent Zn-ions within the solid …

Aqueous zinc metal batteries are appealing candidates for grid energy storage. However,
the inadequate electrochemical reversibility of the zinc metal negative electrode inhibits the …

Zn metal as one of promising anode materials for aqueous batteries but suffers from
disreputable dendrite growth, grievous hydrogen evolution and corrosion. Here, a polycation …
