“…According to the previous analyses, [16][17][18] the costs of electrodes and electrolyte components in AZBs are substantially lower (<US$65/kW•h based on the Zn|Zn 0.25 V 2 O 5 ⋅nH 2 O battery) than that of commercial LIBs (≈US$81-91/kW•h based on the graphite|LiNi 0.6 Co 0.2 Mn 0.2 O 2 (NCM 622) system). [19] Due to these unique merits, AZBs have a long history of development, starting from the first Voltaic cell in 1799, [20] to the Daniell cell (1836), to the Leclanché cell (1866), and finally to alkaline Zn-MnO 2 primary batteries. [21] In recent years, active research efforts have been placed in employing the zinc ion chemistry in the rechargeable battery system, for example, successfully switching from primary to secondary AZBs using MnO 2 cathode and Zn metal anode in ZnSO 4 aqueous electrolyte.…”

Rechargeable aqueous zinc batteries (AZBs) are one of the promising options for large‐scale electrical energy storage owing to their safety, affordability and environmental friendliness. During the past decade, there have been remarkable advancements in the AZBs technology, which are achieved through intensive efforts not only in the area of electrode materials but also in the fundamental understandings of non‐electrode components such as electrolytes, solid electrolyte interphase (SEI), current collectors, binders, and separators. In particular, the breakthroughs in the non‐electrode components should not be underestimated in having enabled the AZBs to attain a higher energy and power density beyond that of the conventional AZBs, proving their critical role. In this article, the recent research progress is comprehensively reviewed with respect to non‐electrode components in AZBs, covering the new‐type of electrolytes that have been introduced, attempts for the tailoring of SEI, and the design efforts for multi‐functional current collectors, binders and separators, along with the remaining challenges associated with these non‐electrode components. Finally, perspectives are discussed toward future research directions in this field. This extensive overview on the non‐electrode components is expected to guide and spur further development of high‐performance AZBs.

Aqueous zinc ion batteries (AZIBs) with metallic Zn anode have the potential for large‐scale energy storage application due to their cost‐effectiveness, safety, environmental‐friendliness, and ease of preparation. However, the concerns regarding dendrite growth and side reactions on Zn anode surface hamper AZIB's commercialization. This review aims to give a comprehensive evaluation of the protective interphase construction and provide guildance to further improve the electrochemical performance of AZIBs. The failure behaviors of Zn metal anode including dendrite growth, corrosion, and hydrogen evolution are analyzed. Then, the applications and mechanisms of the constructed interphases are introduced, classified by the material species. The fabrication methods of the artificial interfaces are summarized and evaluated, including the in‐situ strategy and ex‐situ strategy. Finally, the characterization means of the interphases are discussed to give a full view for the study of Zn anode protection. Based on the analysis of this review, a stable and high‐performance Zn anode could be designed by carefully choosing applied material, corresponding protective mechanism, and appropriate construction technique. Additionally, this review for Zn anode modification and construction techniques for anode protection in AZIBs may be helpful in other aqueous metal batteries with similar problems.
