Electrochromism induces reversible changes of coloration in specific organic and inorganic materials through electrical charge/discharge reactions. When processed into thin films, electrochromic metal oxides can be integrated into glazing applications such as displays, rearview mirrors, goggles and, most notably, smart windows in energy-efficient buildings. Over the years, the use of spray coating as a liquid-based approach has been acknowledged for its cost-efficient, high-throughput samples production with a low volume consumption. It represents an interesting alternative to vacuum processes and to other wet methods, suitably responding to the current limitations of electrochromic thin films production by offering improved control over deposition parameters and capacities of up-scaling, together with lowered energetic and economic costs. The present review summarizes the main theoretical and practical aspects of spray coating, notably distinguishing room-temperature methodologies from pyrolysis-based, under heating protocols. The main families of functional electrochromic metal oxides are then screened and discussed, establishing how spray processing can challengingly lead to higher levels of optical contrast, commutation kinetics, coloration efficiency and cycling durability, and how low-toxic and environment-friendly precursors can be favored while sustaining large deposition areas.

“…On the contrary, vanadium-based materials have a very low discharge platform despite their high specific capacity, which results in low power density and energy density of these two materials [25,26]. Compared with the other two materials, manganese-based materials have the moderate specific capacity and discharge platform advantages, but it is still difficult to show outstanding electrochemical performance [25,27]. Similarly, zinc anode materials are prone to produce zinc dendrites under non-uniform electric fields, leading to short circuits and battery failure.…”

Porous materials as electrode materials have demonstrated numerous benefits for high-performance Zn-ion batteries in recent years. In brief, porous materials as positive electrodes provide distinctive features such as faster electron transport, shorter ion diffusion distance, and richer electroactive reaction sites, which improve the kinetics of positive electrode reactions and achieve higher rate capacity. On the other hand, the porous structures as negative electrodes also exhibit electrochemical properties possessing higher surface area and reducing local current density, which favors the uniform Zn deposition and restrains the dendrite formation. In view of their advantages, porous electrode materials for ZIB are expected to be extensively applied in electric and hybrid electric vehicles and portable electronic devices. In this review, we highlight the methods of synthesizing porous electrode materials and discuss the mechanism of action of porous structures as electrodes on their electrochemical properties. At the end of this review, the perspectives on the future development of porous materials in the field of electrochemical energy storage are also discussed.
