“…Another advantage of our wet‐spun battery is flexibility, which is important for wearable applications. In the case of a battery system with a solid electrolyte, efficiency and stability of the battery were considered more important than higher capacity and energy density by using the full voltage window of the Ag−Zn battery . Therefore, in this paper, the galvanostatic charging/discharging curves of the battery were measured between 1 and 1.8 V. Another advantages of our wet spun battery with solid gel electrolyte is that it is mechanically stable under deformation.…”

“…[6][7][8][9] One-dimensional yarn-or fiber-based batteries have been studied steadily due to their light weight, small size, and flexibility, which provide huge advantages over heavy, bulky, and rigid three-dimensional batteries. Although some progressive research groups have reported a variety of fiberstructured batteries, [10][11][12][13][14][15][16] developing fiber-structured batteries to a practical stage remains a challenge. Unfortunately, the diameters of previously reported fiber batteries were too large (1-3 mm).…”

Yarn‐ or fiber‐structured batteries have been studied steadily due to their huge advantages such as light weight, small size and flexibility. Although some fiber structured batteries were reported, large size and complicated fabrication process still remain to be major challenges in developing practical battery systems. In order to address these problems, we fabricated a micro‐sized and continuous Ag−Zn fiber battery using wet spinning and electrodeposition. This simple and easy process enables to obtain MWNT fiber electrodes with a length of more than 30 cm and a diameter of about 80 μm. Silver and zinc were deposited and formed nano‐porous structures on the as‐prepared wet spun fiber electrodes. Consequently, the Ag−Zn aqueous fiber battery showed an areal capacity of 0.063 mAh/cm2. Our fiber structured battery could be applicable as energy source of portable, wearable, and micro‐sized electronics.

“…When this battery is experienced processes of bent, twisted and straight, the capacity ratio is only decreased slightly without any damage. Ag–Zn batteries with PVA‐based electrolyte in alkaline solution were also developed 135–137. Besides flexibility, cycling stability can also be boosted by PVA‐based electrolyte.…”

Aqueous rechargeable zinc ion batteries (ZIBs) have been deemed to be possible candidates for large‐scale energy storage due to their ecoefficiency, substantial reserve, safety, and low cost. However, the challenges inherent in aqueous electrolytes, such as water splitting reactions, water evaporation, and liquid leakage, have greatly hindered their development in energy storage. Fortunately, polymer electrolytes would be able to overcome the abovementioned challenges. Moreover, the flexible properties of polymer electrolytes can facilitate their future application in wearable electronics. Recently, increasing attention has been attracted to the polymer electrolyte‐based zinc ion batteries. However, the development of polymer electrolytes for ZIBs is still in the early stages due to numerous challenges. Therefore, substantial research effort is required to overcome the challenges of polymer electrolyte‐based ZIBs. In this review, the current progress in developing polymer electrolytes, including solid polymer electrolytes, gel polymer electrolytes, and hybrid polymer electrolytes, as well as the interactions between electrodes and polymer electrolytes for ZIBs is comprehensively reviewed, analyzed, and discussed in terms of their synthesis, characterization, and performance validation. To facilitate further research and development of polymer electrolytes for ZIBs, the relevant challenges are summarized and analyzed, and some underlying approaches to overcome these challenges are also proposed.

Flexible fibrous batteries have attracted unprecedented attention, owing to the development of wearable electronic devices, which have the advantages of flexibility, weavability, and miniaturization compared with conventional bulky batteries. In this Minireview, we summarize the latest developments in flexible fibrous batteries, including lithium‐ion batteries, lithium–sulfur batteries, sodium‐ion batteries, and so forth. We also discuss the future directions and challenges of flexible fibrous batteries.
