Abstract
Aqueous rechargeable batteries are prospective candidates for large-scale grid energy storage. However, traditional anode materials applied lack acid-alkali co-tolerance. Herein, we report a covalent organic framework containing pyrazine (C=N) and phenylimino (-NH-) groups (HPP-COF) as a long-cycle and high-rate anode for both acidic and alkaline batteries. The HPP-COF's robust covalent linkage and the hydrogen bond network between -NH- and water molecules collectively improve the acid-alkaline co-tolerance. More importantly, the hydrogen bond network promotes the rapid transport of H+ /OH- by the Grotthuss mechanism. As a result, the HPP-COF delivers a superior capacity and cycle stability (66.6 mAh g-1 @ 30 A g-1 , over 40000 cycles in 1 M H2 SO4 electrolyte; 91.7 mAh g-1 @ 100 A g-1 , over 30000 cycles @ 30 A g-1 in 1 M NaOH electrolyte). The work opens a new direction for the structural design and application of COF materials in acidic and alkaline batteries.

Abstract
With fast (de)coordination kinetics, the smallest and the lightest proton stands out as the most ideal charge carrier for aqueous Zn-organic batteries (ZOBs). Hydrogen-bonding networks with rapid Grotthuss proton conduction is particularly suitable for organic cathodes, yet not reported. We report the supramolecular self-assembly of cyanuric acid and 1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triamine into organic superstructures through in-plane H-bonds and out-of-plane π-π interaction. The supramolecular superstructures exhibit highly stable lock-and-key H-bonding networks with an ultralow activation energy for protonation (0.09 eV vs. 0.25 eV of zincification). Then, high-kinetics H+ coordination is prior to Zn2+ into protophilic C=O sites via a two-step nine-electron reaction. The assembled ZOBs show high-rate capability (135 mAh g-1 at 150 A g-1 ), high energy density (267 Wh kg-1 cathode ) and ultra-long life (50 000 cycles at 10 A g-1 ), becoming the state-of-the-art ZOBs in comprehensive performances.

Supramolecular Engineering of Cathode Materials for Aqueous Zinc-ion Energy Storage Devices: Novel Benzothiadiazole Functionalized Two-Dimensional Olefin-Linked COFs.

Abstract
Two-dimensional covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have emerged as promising materials for energy storage applications exhibiting enhanced electrochemical performance. While most of the reported organic cathode materials for zinc-ion batteries use carbonyl groups as electrochemically-active sites, their high hydrophilicity in aqueous electrolytes represents a critical drawback. Herein, we report a novel and structurally robust olefin-linked COF-TMT-BT synthesized via the aldol condensation between 2,4,6-trimethyl-1,3,5-triazine (TMT) and 4,4'-(benzothiadiazole-4,7-diyl)dibenzaldehyde (BT), where benzothiadiazole units are explored as novel electrochemically-active groups. Our COF-TMT-BT exhibits an outstanding Zn2+ storage capability, delivering a state-of-the-art capacity of 283.5 mAh g-1 at 0.1 A g-1 . Computational and experimental analyses reveal that the charge-storage mechanism in COF-TMT-BT electrodes is based on the supramolecularly engineered and reversible Zn2+ coordination by the benzothiadiazole units.

Abstract
A novel poly(phenazine-alt-pyromellitic anhydride) (PPPA) has been successfully designed and synthesized via a condensation polymerization strategy as promising cathode material in organic zinc-ion batteries. Electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM), FTIR and XPS characterizations verify a reversible Zn2+ -coordination mechanism in our PPPA cathode. Intriguingly, an ultrahigh Zn2+ diffusion coefficient of 1.2×10-7 cm2 s-1 was found in this large π-conjugated system, which is the highest one among all organic cathode materials for zinc-ion batteries. Theoretical calculations reveal the extended π-conjugated plane in our PPPA sample results in a significant reduction on energy gap, effectively accelerating intramolecular electron transfer during charge/discharge process. Our finding provides insights to achieve high zinc-ion transport kinetics by a design strategy on planar polymer system.

Abstract
Aqueous Zn-ion batteries (ZIBs) are regarded as alternatives to Li-ion batteries benefiting from both improved safety and environmental impact. The widespread application of ZIBs, however, is compromised by the lack of high-performance cathodes. Currently, only the intercalation mechanism is widely reported in aqueous ZIBs, which significantly limits cathode options. Beyond Zn-ion intercalation, we comprehensively study the conversion mechanism for Zn2+ storage and its diffusion pathway in a CuI cathode, indicating that CuI occurs a direct conversion reaction without Zn2+ intercalation due to the high energy barrier for Zn2+ intercalation and migration. Importantly, this direct conversion reaction mechanism can be readily generalized to other high-capacity cathodes, such as Cu2 S (336.7 mA h g-1 ) and Cu2 O (374.5 mA h g-1 ), indicating its practical universality. Our work enriches the Zn-ion storage mechanism and significantly broadens the cathode horizons towards next-generation ZIBs.
