AbstractHigh-energy-density and low-cost calcium (Ca) batteries have been proposed as ‘beyond-Li-ion’ electrochemical energy storage devices. However, they have seen limited progress due to challenges associated with developing electrolytes showing reductive/oxidative stabilities and high ionic conductivities. This paper describes a calcium monocarborane cluster salt in a mixed solvent as a Ca-battery electrolyte with high anodic stability (up to 4 V vs. Ca2+/Ca), high ionic conductivity (4 mS cm−1), and high Coulombic efficiency for Ca plating/stripping at room temperature. The developed electrolyte is a promising candidate for use in room-temperature rechargeable Ca batteries.

MXene, a class of 2D transition metal carbide/nitride materials, has attracted widespread attention since its first discovery in 2011. Due to its high electronic conductivity, large specific surface area, good mechanical stability, and adjustable surface functional groups, MXene-based nanomaterials have shown great potential in energy storage devices. Meanwhile, zinc-based aqueous energy storage devices became a hotspot recently in energy storage field on account of their high security and low cost. In this review, the research progress on the preparation routes, preserving method, related structure and properties of MXene is first summarized. Followed by is an introduction of the recent state-of-the-art development of MXene-based electrodes for zinc-based aqueous energy storage devices, including zinc ion batteries (ZIBs), zinc-air batteries (ZABs), and zinc-halide batteries (ZHBs). Finally, the major bottleneck and perspectives for MXene-based nanomaterials in zinc-based aqueous energy storage devices are pointed out.

Sodium-ion batteries are promising alternative electrochemical energy storage devices due to the abundance of sodium resources. One of the challenges currently hindering the development of the sodium-ion battery technology is the lack of electrode materials suitable for reversibly storing/releasing sodium ions for a sufficiently long lifetime. Redox-active polymers provide opportunities for developing advanced electrode materials for sodium-ion batteries because of their structural diversity and flexibility, surface functionalities and tenability, and low cost. This review provides a short yet concise summary of recent developments in polymer electrode materials for sodium-ion batteries. Challenges facing polymer electrode materials for sodium-ion batteries are identified and analyzed. Strategies for improving polymer electrochemical performance are discussed. Future research perspectives in this important field are projected.
