Abstract:
Aqueous rechargeable battery has been an intense topic of research recently due to the significant safety issues of conventional Li-ion batteries (LIBs). Amongst the various candidates of aqueous batteries, aqueous zinc ion battery (AZIB) holds great promise as a next generation safe energy storage device, due to its low cost and abundance in nature, low-toxicity, environmental friendliness, low redox potential, and high theoretical capacity. Yet, the promise has not been realized due to their limitations such as lower capacity compared to traditional LIB, dendrite growth, detrimental degradation of electrode materials structure as ions intercalate of de-intercalate, gas evolution/corrosion at the electrodes, which remains a significant challenge. To address the challenges, various 2D materials with different physiochemical characteristics have been utilized. This review explores fundamental physiochemical characteristics of widely used 2D materials in AZIB including graphene, MoS2, MXenes, 2D metal organic framework, 2D covalent organic framework, and 2D transition metal oxides and how their characteristics have been utilized or modified to address the challenges in AZIB. The review also provides insights and perspectives on how 2D materials can help to realize the full potential for AZIB for next-generation safe and reliable energy storage devices.
