Abstract
Zinc dendrite, active iodine dissolution, and polyiodide shuttle caused by the strong interaction between liquid electrolyte and solid electrode are the chief culprits for the capacity attenuation of aqueous zinc-iodine batteries (ZIBs). Herein, mullite is adopted as raw material to prepare Zn-based solid-state electrolyte (Zn-ML) for ZIBs through zinc ion exchange strategy. Owing to the merits of low electronic conductivity, low zinc diffusion energy barrier, and strong polyiodide adsorption capability, Zn-ML electrolyte can effectively isolate the redox reactions of zinc anode and AC@I2 cathode, guide the reversible zinc deposition behavior, and inhibit the active iodine dissolution as well as polyiodide shuttle during cycling process. As expected, wide operating voltage window of 2.7 V (vs Zn2+/Zn), high Zn2+ transference number of 0.51, and low activation energy barrier of 29.7 kJ mol-1 can be achieved for the solid-state Zn//Zn cells. Meanwhile, high reversible capacity of 127.4 and 107.6 mAh g-1 can be maintained at 0.5 and 1 A g-1 after 3 000 and 2 100 cycles for the solid-state Zn//AC@I2 batteries, corresponding to high-capacity retention ratio of 85.2% and 80.7%, respectively. This study will inspire the development of mineral-derived solid electrolyte, and facilitate its application in Zn-based secondary batteries.

Abstract
Recently, aqueous zinc-ion batteries with conversion mechanisms have received wide attention in energy storage systems on account of excellent specific capacity, high power density, and energy density. Unfortunately, some characteristics of cathode material, zinc anode, and electrolyte still limit the development of aqueous zinc-ion batteries possessing conversion mechanism. Consequently, this paper provides a detailed summary of the development for numerous aqueous zinc-based batteries: zinc-sulfur (Zn-S) batteries, zinc-selenium (Zn-Se) batteries, zinc-tellurium (Zn-Te) batteries, zinc-iodine (Zn-I2) batteries, and zinc-bromine (Zn-Br2) batteries. Meanwhile, the reaction conversion mechanism of zinc-based batteries with conversion mechanism and the research progress in the investigation of composite cathode, zinc anode materials, and selection of electrolytes are systematically introduced. Finally, this review comprehensively describes the prospects and outlook of aqueous zinc-ion batteries with conversion mechanism, aiming to promote the rapid development of aqueous zinc-based batteries.

Abstract
Aqueous zinc-iodine batteries are considered to be one of the most promising devices for future electrical energy storage due to their low cost, high safety, high theoretical specific capacity, and multivalent properties. However, the shuttle effect currently faced by zinc-iodine batteries causes the loss of cathode active material and corrosion of the zinc anodes, limiting the large-scale application of zinc-iodine batteries. In this paper, the electrochemical processes of iodine conversion and the zinc anode, as well as the induced mechanism of the shuttle effect, are introduced from the basic configuration of the aqueous zinc-iodine battery. Then, the inhibition strategy of the shuttle effect is summarized from four aspects: the design of cathode materials, electrolyte regulation, the modification of the separator, and anode protection. Finally, the current status of aqueous zinc-iodine batteries is analyzed and recommendations and perspectives are presented. This review is expected to deepen the understanding of aqueous zinc-iodide batteries and is expected to guide the design of high-performance aqueous zinc-iodide batteries.

The structural knowledge of metal-organic frameworks is crucial to the understanding and development of new efficient materials for industrial implementation. This review classifies and discusses recent advanced literature reports on phase transitions that occur during thermal treatments on metal-organic frameworks and their characterisation. Thermally activated phase transitions and procceses are classified according to the temperaturatures at which they occur: high temperature (reversible and non-reversible) and low temperature. In addition, theoretical calculations and modelling approaches employed to better understand these structural phase transitions are also reviewed.

Abstract
Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal borides (MBenes), new members of the 2D materials family, hold great promise for use in the electrocatalytic and energy storage fields because of their high specific area, high chemical activity, and fast charge carrier mobility. Although various types of MBenes are reported, layered MBenes featuring redox-active terminal groups for high energy output are not yet produced. A facile and energy-efficient method for synthesizing MBenes equipped with redox-active terminal groups for cascade Zn||I2 batteries is presented. Layered MBenes have ordered metal vacancies and ─Br terminal groups, enabling the sequential reactions of I-/I0 and Br-/Br0. The I2-hosting MBene-Br cathode results in a specific energy as high as 485.8 Wh kg-1 at 899.7 W kg-1 and a specific power as high as 6007.7 W kg-1 at 180.2 Wh kg-1, far exceeding the best records for Zn||I2 batteries. The results of this study demonstrate that the challenges of MBene synthesis can be overcome and reveal an efficient path for producing high-performance redox-active electrode materials for energy-dense cascade aqueous batteries.

Abstract
Aqueous zinc-iodine batteries stand out as highly promising energy storage systems owing to the abundance of resources and non-combustible nature of water coupled with their high theoretical capacity. Nevertheless, the development of aqueous zinc-iodine batteries has been impeded by persistent challenges associated with iodine cathodes and Zn anodes. Key obstacles include the shuttle effect of polyiodine and the sluggish kinetics of cathodes, dendrite formation, the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), and the corrosion and passivation of anodes. Numerous strategies aimed at addressing these issues have been developed, including compositing with carbon materials, using additives, and surface modification. This review provides a recent update on various strategies and perspectives for the development of aqueous zinc-iodine batteries, with a particular emphasis on the regulation of I2 cathodes and Zn anodes, electrolyte formulation, and separator modification. Expanding upon current achievements, future initiatives for the development of aqueous zinc-iodine batteries are proposed, with the aim of advancing their commercial viability.

Abstract
Rechargeable aqueous zinc iodine (ZnǀǀI2) batteries have been promising energy storage technologies due to low-cost position and constitutional safety of zinc anode, iodine cathode and aqueous electrolytes. Whereas, on one hand, the low-fraction utilization of electrochemically inert host causes severe shuttle of soluble polyiodides, deficient iodine utilization and sluggish reaction kinetics. On the other hand, the usage of high mass polar electrocatalysts occupies mass and volume of electrode materials and sacrifices device-level energy density. Here, we propose a "confinement-catalysis" host composed of Fe single atom catalyst embedding inside ordered mesoporous carbon host, which can effectively confine and catalytically convert I2/I- couple and polyiodide intermediates. Consequently, the cathode enables the high capacity of 188.2 mAh g-1 at 0.3 A g-1, excellent rate capability with a capacity of 139.6 mAh g-1 delivered at high current density of 15 A g-1 and ultra-long cyclic stability over 50,000 cycles with 80.5% initial capacity retained under high iodine loading of 76.72 wt%. Furthermore, the electrocatalytic host can also accelerate the [Formula: see text] conversion. The greatly improved electrochemical performance originates from the modulation of physicochemical confinement and the decrease of energy barrier for reversible I-/I2 and I2/I+ couples, and polyiodide intermediates conversions.

Abstract
With the increasing requirement for high capacity energy storage systems, a large amount of recent work has focused on the development of zinc-iodine batteries (ZIBs) on account of high energy density, fast redox kinetics, and excellent reversibility. Nevertheless, low electron conductivity, the shuttle effect, and highly soluble iodine species (I2, I-, and I3-) have impeded their widespread application. In this study, metal organic framework-5 (MOF-5)-derived mesoporous carbon (MPC) loaded iodine (MPC/I2) cathode and the single-sided ketjen black modified cotton fiber (KB@CF) separator are designed to solve the problems mentioned above. That is, the double fixation strategy using MPC and KB@CF separators for iodine species suppresses the shuttle effect. Therefore, the ZIBs constructed with the MPC/I2 cathode and the KB@CF separator can exhibit excellent electrochemical performance. At the current density of 0.1 A g-1, a high discharge specific capacity of 137 mAh g-1 is still available after 300 cycles. Meanwhile, it exhibits a low capacity decay rate at long cycling (0.030% per cycle over 2000 cycles).

Abstract
Rechargeable aqueous metal||I2 electrochemical energy storage systems are a cost-effective alternative to conventional transition-metal-based batteries for grid energy storage. However, the growth of unfavorable metallic deposition and the irreversible formation of electrochemically inactive by-products at the negative electrode during cycling hinder their development. To circumvent these drawbacks, herein we propose 3,4,9,10-perylenetetracarboxylic diimide (PTCDI) as negative electrode active material and a saturated mixed KCl/I2 aqueous electrolyte solution. The use of these components allows for exploiting two sequential reversible electrochemical reactions in a single cell. Indeed, when they are tested in combination with an active carbon-enveloped I2 electrode in a glass cell configuration, we report an initial specific discharge capacity of 900 mAh g−1 (electrode mass of iodine only) and an average cell discharge voltage of 1.25 V at 40 A g−1 and 25\documentclass[12pt]{minimal}

Abstract
Nickel–zinc (Ni-Zn) secondary battery that is environmentally friendly and inexpensive has been regarded as a promising rechargeable battery system. However, the generation of deformation and dendrites of the traditional zinc anode during the cycling can cause capacity degradation and impede its practical application. Herein, we design a hierarchical ZnO nanosphere coated with an inherently derived ZIF-8 porous carbon shell (ZnO@CZIF-8) using a simple controllable method. The conductive carbon shell and porous ZnO core can provide more active sites, allow the fast transfer of electrons, and buffer the volume expansion of the electrode effectively. Benefiting from the synergistic effect amid the inherently ZIF-8–derived carbon shell and ZnO core, ZnO@CZIF-8 nanospheres exhibit a satisfying capacity of 316 mAh g−1 at a current density of 1 A g−1 after 50 cycles and an outstanding rate capacity when acting as the anode for a Ni-Zn secondary battery with merchant agglomerative Ni(OH)2 as the cathode. These results imply that the ZnO@CZIF-8 nanosphere is a hopeful anode for a high-energy Ni-Zn secondary battery.
