“…[6] Zinc-ion batteries (ZIBs), which are mainly composed of cathodes containing zinc ions, zinc metal anodes and water electrolytes, have recently become a research hotspot in the field of energy storage due to their safety, environmentally friendliness, abundant natural resources (75 parts per million in earth's crust), high theoretical capacity (820 mAh g À 1 or 5855 mAh cm À 3 ), and low redox potential (À 0.76 V vs. standard hydrogen electrode) (Figure 1). [11][12][13][14] However, ZIBs face several drawbacks, such as side reactions of Zn anode and Zn dendrites, cathode dissolution, poor conductivity and volume change during charge-discharge, narrow potential window, and high cost and poor durability of separator materials, which hinder their large-scale applications.…”

Zinc‐ion batteries (ZIBs) are a promising alternative for large‐scale energy storage due to their advantages of environmental protection, low cost, and intrinsic safety. However, the utilization of their full potential is still hindered by the sluggish electrode reaction kinetics, poor structural stability, severe Zn dendrite growth, and narrow electrochemical stability window of the whole battery. Graphene‐based materials with excellent physicochemical properties hold great promise for addressing the above challenges foe ZIBs. In this review, the energy storage mechanisms and challenges faced by ZIBs are first discussed. Key issues and recent progress in design strategies for graphene‐based materials in optimizing the electrochemical performance of ZIBs (anode, cathode, electrolyte, separator and current collector) are then discussed. Finally, some potential challenges and future research directions of graphene‐based materials in high‐performance ZIBs are proposed for practical applications.

“…Recently, rechargeable batteries based on sodium, 8 potassium, 9 magnesium, 10 calcium, 11 zinc 12 and aluminum ions 13 have been proposed as promising alternatives to LIBs. Among them, rechargeable aqueous aluminum-ion batteries (AIBs) are the most promising alternatives because of the following advantages: (1) AIBs can be assembled under ambient conditions and do not require harsh oxygen-free and water-free conditions; this reduces their raw material and manufacturing costs; (2) the electrolyte used in AIBs is non-toxic, non-volatile, non-flammable, and hence environmentally friendly; (3) the high ionic conductivity of the electrolyte affords AIBs a fast charging and discharging capability; (4) AIBs have high intrinsic safety and tolerance against external impact and misoperations.…”

“…4 The improved safety, simple operating conditions, resourcefulness, and cost-effectiveness of rechargeable aqueous Zn-ion batteries (ZIBs) make them promising alternatives to LIBs. [5][6][7][8] In addition, owing to their high theoretical capacities (820 mA h g −1 and 5854 mA h cm −3 ), low redox potential (−0.763 V vs. the standard hydrogen electrode (SHE)), high safety, and abundant zinc resource, ZIBs are promising candidates for next-generation battery systems. 9 In contrast to other active metals (Li, Na, K, Ca, etc.…”
