Cathode materials that possess high output voltage,as well as those that can be mass-produced using facile techniques,are crucial for the advancement of aqueous zinc-ion battery(ZIBs)applications.Herein,we present for the first time a new porous K0.5VOPO4.1.5H2O polyanionic cathode(P-KVP)with high output voltage(above 1.2 V)that can be manufactured at room temperature using straightforward coprecipitation and etching techniques.The P-KVP cathode experiences anisotropic crystal plane expan-sion via a sequential solid-solution intercalation and phase conversion pathway throughout the Zn2+stor-age process,as confirmed by in-situ synchrotron X-ray diffraction and ex-situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.Similar to other layered vanadium-based polyanionic materials,the P-KVP cathode experi-ences a progressive decline in voltage during the cycle,which is demonstrated to be caused by the irre-versible conversion into amorphous VOx.By introducing a new electrolyte containing Zn(OTF)2 to a mixed triethyl phosphate and water solution,it is possible to impede this irreversible conversion and obtain a high output voltage and longer cycle life by forming a P-rich cathode electrolyte interface layer.As a proof-of-concept,the flexible fiber-shaped ZIBs based on modified electrolyte woven into a fabric watch band can power an electronic watch,highlighting the application potential of P-KVP cathode.
