For lithium‐ion batteries, iron‐based oxides are expected to be the next generation of anode materials because of their high theoretical capacity, environmental friendliness, and affordability. Although, like most transition metal oxides, iron‐based oxides suffer from poor electrical conductivity and cycling performance, volume expansion during charging and discharging, and easily agglomerated. g‐C3N4 has a graphene‐like layered structure consisting of nitrogen‐linked C6N7 repeating units. The abundant nitrogen content can improve the wettability of the electrode and electrolyte, thus improving the lithium charge transfer process, and secondly g‐C3N4 is less expensive and easier to prepare than graphene. Here, we report composites with metal oxide nanosheets (ZnFe2O4−Fe2O3) attached to softly curved g‐C3N4 nanosheets. When used as an anode material for lithium‐ion batteries, after 300 cycles at the current density of 500 mA g−1, ZFO‐Fe2O3/g‐C3N4 offers the discharge specific capacity (1518.5 mAh g−1) and can still deliver 639.2 mAh g−1 at the high current density (10 A g−1). Due to the introduction of g‐C3N4 alleviated the volume change of the electrode, shortened the diffusion distance of Li+ and provided more reactive sites, resulting in excellent electrochemical performance of ZFO‐Fe2O3/g‐C3N4.

“…[7][8] Therefore, high-performance anodes for LIBs have attracted extensive attention by researchers during the past several decades. [9][10][11][12] In recent years, various anode materials, such as transition metal oxide-based, [13][14][15] silicium-based, [16][17][18] seleniumbased [19] and so on, have been far-ranging probed and caught the attention of researchers due to their high theoretical specific capacities. Among them, transition metal oxides (TMOs) as anodes usually exhibit much higher theoretical specific capacities than commercial graphite-based materials.…”

ZnCo2O4 has been attracted wide research attention as a promising anode material for lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs) in recent years based on its high theoretical specific capacity, low toxicity as well as stable chemical properties. However, the further large‐scale application of pristine ZnCo2O4 anode have been impeded because of its undesirable Li+ ion conductivity, low electronic conductivity, and finite stability of electrolytes at high potentials. Recently, optimizing the micro/nano structure, modification with carbonaceous materials, incorporation with metal oxides and constructing a binder‐free structure on conductive substrate for ZnCo2O4‐based materials have been verified as promising effective routes for solving the above problems. In this review, the recent advances in underlying reaction mechanisms, synthetic methods and strategies for improving the performance of ZnCo2O4 anodes are comprehensively summarized. The factors affecting the electrochemical properties of ZnCo2O4‐based materials are mainly discussed, and paths to promote the specific capacity and cyclic stability are proposed. Finally, several insights into the future developments, challenges, and prospects of ZnCo2O4‐based anode materials of LIBs are proposed.

Lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs) are currently the predominant energy storage power source. However, the urgent issues of enhancing electrochemical performance, prolonging lifetime, preventing thermal runaway‐caused fires, and intelligent application are obstacles to their applications. Herein, bio‐inspired electrodes owning spatiotemporal management of self‐healing, fast ion transport, fire‐extinguishing, thermoresponsive switching, recycling, and flexibility are overviewed comprehensively, showing great promising potentials in practical application due to the significantly enhanced durability and thermal safety of LIBs. Taking advantage of the self‐healing core–shell structures, binders, capsules, or liquid metal alloys, these electrodes can maintain the mechanical integrity during the lithiation–delithiation cycling. After the incorporation of fire‐extinguishing binders, current collectors, or capsules, flame retardants can be released spatiotemporally during thermal runaway to ensure safety. Thermoresponsive switching electrodes are also constructed though adding thermally responsive components, which can rapidly switch LIB off under abnormal conditions and resume their functions quickly when normal operating conditions return. Finally, the challenges of bio‐inspired electrode designs are presented to optimize the spatiotemporal management of LIBs. It is anticipated that the proposed electrodes with spatiotemporal management will not only promote industrial application, but also strengthen the fundamental research of bionics in energy storage.
