A gel polymer electrolyte was formed by trapping an optimized Na+/Zn2+ mixed-ion aqueous electrolyte in a polyacrylonitrile nanofiber polymer matrix. This electrolyte was used in a novel aqueous sodium-ion battery (ASIB) system, which was assembled by using a zinc anode and Na4Mn9O18 cathode. The nanorod-like Na4Mn9O18 was synthesized by a hydrothermal soft chemical reaction. The structural and morphological measurement confirmed that the highly crystalline Na4Mn9O18 nanorods are uniformly distributed. Electrochemical tests of Na4Mn9O18//Zn gel polymer battery demonstrated its high cycle stability along with a good rate of performance. The battery delivers an initial discharge capacity of 96 mAh g−1, and 64 mAh g−1 after 200 cycles at a high cycling rate of 1 C. Our results demonstrate that the Na4Mn9O18//Zn gel polymer battery is a promising and safe high-performance battery.

“…The R s is the electrolyte resistance, R ct is the charge‐transfer resistance at two electrode–electrolyte interfaces, Z w is the interfacial diffusion resistance (Warburg impedance) that related to the ion diffusion in the electrode materials, and the CPE is the double layer capacitance. [ 53 ] Upon heating from 30 to 50 °C, the R ct of both modified separator and NKK separator based batteries become smaller with the impedances decrease from 119.4 to 69.47 Ω and from 111.7 to 92.6 Ω, respectively (Figure 6A,B). This is because the ion migration rate becomes faster at higher temperatures.…”

Capacity degradation and destructive hazards are two major challenges for the operation of lithium‐ion batteries at high temperatures. Although adding flame retardants or fire extinguishing agents can provide one‐off self‐protection in case of emergency overheating, it is desirable to directly regulate battery operation according to the temperature. Herein, smart self‐protecting aqueous lithium‐ion batteries are developed using thermos‐responsive separators prepared through in situ polymerization on the hydrophilic separator. The thermos‐responsive separator blocks the lithium ion transport channels at high temperature and reopens when the battery cools down; more importantly, this transition is reversible. The influence of lithium salts on the thermos‐responsive behaviors of the hydrogels is investigated. Then suitable lithium salt (LiNO3) and concentration (1 m) are selected in the electrolyte to achieve self‐protection without sacrificing battery performance. The shut‐off temperature can be tuned from 30 to 80 °C by adjusting the hydrophilic and hydrophobic moiety ratio in the hydrogel for targeted applications. This self‐protecting LiMn2O4/carbon coated LiTi2(PO4)3 (LMO/C‐LTP) battery shows promise for smart energy storage devices with high safety and extended lifespan in case of high operating temperatures.

“…Recently, Na 0.44 MnO 2 has been widely reported as a cathode material for a rechargeable aqueous sodium-ion battery (SIB) because of its stable tunnel structure, abundant resources, and environmental benignity. ,− Many works have demonstrated that Na 0.44 MnO 2 could exhibit a long cycle life in neutral aqueous solution; ,, thus, Na 0.44 MnO 2 is regarded as an ideal cathode material to match with the Zn anode in an aqueous SIB. However, a very low discharge capacity of 30–40 mA h g –1 was obtained for Na 0.44 MnO 2 in previous works because the electrochemical operation potential was limited to a narrow window to avoid an irreversible phase transition. ,, Although the discharge capacity of Na 0.44 MnO 2 was raised to 113 mA h g –1 by using hybrid electrolytes with Zn 2+ and Mn 2+ , it dramatically decreased to 40 mA h g –1 after 10 cycles .…”

A rechargeable aqueous Zn/Mn battery is a promising device for large-scale energy storage because of its abundant resources, low cost, and high safety. However, its application is plagued by a poor life cycle because of the electrochemical instability of MnO in aqueous electrolytes. Here, an alkaline Zn-NaMnO dual-ion battery (denoted AZMDIB) is developed for the first time using NaMnO as the cathode, a zinc metal sheet as the anode, and a 6 M NaOH aqueous solution as the electrolyte. When the discharge cutoff voltage is lowered to 0.3 V (vs Zn/Zn), the NaMnO cathode delivers a high capacity of 345.5 mA h g but with a poor cycling performance. The charge-discharge mechanism and structural evolution of the NaMnO cathode in an extended potential window (1.95-0.3 V) are also explored. The NaMnO electrode experiences two different electrochemical processes: Na ions insert/extract reversibly in the potential range of 1.95-1.1 V, and a phase transition occurs from NaMnO to Mn(OH) below 1.1 V. The latter irreversible reaction is probably due to proton insertion, leading to a severe capacity fade. Nevertheless, in a narrower voltage range (2.0-1.1 V), the AZMDIB full cell exhibits a high reversible capacity (80.2 mA h g at 0.5 C), high rate capability (32 mA h g at 50 C), and excellent cycling stability (73% capacity retention over 1000 cycles at 10 C). Benefiting from the merits of environmental friendliness, cost-effectiveness, and high electrochemical performance, the rechargeable AZMDIB is a promising contender for grid-scale energy storage applications.
