Abstract
Under the background of the energy crisis and the expansion of human activities, developing low-temperature batteries is of significance to provide electricity in cold conditions. Due to their low cost and high energy density, zinc-air batteries are recognized as potential batteries to overcome the disadvantage of traditional batteries. Gel electrolytes have been widely applied in low-temperature zinc-based batteries, and their anti-deforming capability makes them compatible with flexible devices. This work illustrates an A-PAA gel electrolyte with KOH solution in flexible zinc-air batteries, and with the introduction of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), the cycling stability and specific capacity of the batteries at -20 °C increase. This work discusses the SDS compatibility with the gel and explores its improvement effect in low-temperature batteries for the first time. The result of this work can inspire the discovery of the applicability of more conventional electrolyte additives in cold conditions, which can improve low-tempeature battery performance via easy methods.

Abstract
Increasing pursuit of next-generation wearable electronics has put forward the demand of reliable energy devices with high flexibility, durability, and enhanced electrochemical performances. Flexible aqueous zinc-air batteries (FAZABs) have attracted great interests owing to the high energy density, safety, and environmental benignity, for which quasi-solid-state gel polymer electrolytes (QSGPEs) are state-of-the-art electrolytes with high ionic conductivity, flexibility, and resistance to leakage problems of traditional liquid electrolytes. Compared to commonly used PVA-KOH electrolyte with poor electrolyte retention capability and cycling stability, a new type of sulfonate functionalized nanocomposite QSGPE is applied in FAZABs with high ionic conductivity, strong alkaline tolerance, and high zinc anode stability. Notably, the existence of (1) strong anionic sulfonate groups of QSGPEs, contributing to the exposure of preferred Zn (002) plane that is more resistant to zinc dendrite formation, and (2) nano-attapulgite electrolyte additives, beneficial for the enhancement of ionic conductivity, electrolyte uptake, and retention capability, endows a ultralong cycling life of 450 h for the fabricated FAZAB. Furthermore, flexible energy belts and knittable energy wires fabricated with a series/parallel unit of several FAZABs can be used to power various wearable electronics.

Abstract
Here we present an innovative, universal, scalable, and straightforward strategy for cultivating a resilient, flexible lithium-ion battery (LIB) based on the bacterial-based self-growing approach. The electrodes and separator layers are integrated intrinsically into one unity of sandwich bacterial cellulose integrated film (SBCIF), with various active material combinations and tailored mechanical properties. The flexible LIB thereof showcases prominent deformation tolerance and multistage foldability due to the unique self-generated wavy-like structure. The LTO|LFP (Li4Ti5O12 and LiFePO4) SBCIF-based flexible LIB demonstrates reliable long-term electrochemical stability with high flexibility, by exhibiting a high capacity retention (>95%) after 500 cycles at 1C/1C after experiencing a 10 000 bending/flattening treatment. The LTO|LFP SBCIF battery subjected to a simultaneous bending/flattening and cycling experiment shows an extraordinary capacity retention rate (>68%) after 200 cycles at 1C/1C. The biobased self-growing approach offers an exciting and promising pathway toward the tailored, integrated high-performance flexible LIBs.

Abstract
Since flexible devices are being used in various states of charge (SoCs), it is important to investigate SoCs that are durable against external mechanical deformations. In this study, the effects of a mechanical fatigue test under various initial SoCs of batteries were investigated. More specifically, ultrathin pouch-type Li-ion polymer batteries with different initial SoCs were subjected to repeated torsional stress and then galvanostatically cycled 200 times. The cycle performance of the cells after the mechanical test was compared to investigate the effect of the initial SoCs. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was employed to analyze the interfacial resistance changes of the anode and cathode in the cycled cells. When the initial SoC was at 70% before mechanical deformation, both electrodes well maintained their initial state during the mechanical fatigue test and the cell capacity was well retained during the cycling test. This indicates that the cells could well endure mechanical fatigue stress when both electrodes had moderate lithiation states. With initial SoCs at 0% and 100%, the batteries subjected to the mechanical test exhibited relatively drastic capacity fading. This indicates that the cells are vulnerable to mechanical fatigue stress when both electrodes have high lithiation states. Furthermore, it is noted that the stress accumulated inside the batteries caused by mechanical fatigue can act as an accelerated degradation factor during cycling.

Abstract
Flexible power sources are critical to achieve the wide adoption of portable and wearable electronics. Herein, a facile and general strategy of fabricating a fibrous electrode was developed by 3D active coating technology, in which a stepping syringe with electrode paste was synchronously injected onto a rotating conductive wire, distinguished from the conventional direct-write 3D printing without a current collector. A series of such electrodes with different coating weight can be fabricated accurately and efficiently by adjusting critical process parameters following a set of derived equations. The demonstrated fibrous Zn-MnO2 battery with a high commercial ε-MnO2 loading of 14.9 mg cm-2 onto a stainless steel wire shows a reasonable energy density of 108 mWh cm-3, while the fiber-shaped supercapacitor with commercial porous graphene exhibits a high capacitance of 142.9 F g-1 and good durability for bending 10,000 cycles. This work constructs a bridge between materials and fiber-shaped electrodes for flexible energy storage devices.

Abstract
With the rapid evolution of wearable electronics, the demand for flexible energy storage devices is gradually increasing. At present, the commonly used energy storage devices in life are based on rigid frames, which may lead to failure or explosion when mechanical deformation occurs. The main reason for this phenomenon is the insufficient elastic limit of the metal foil current collector with a simple plane structure inside the electrodes. Obviously, the design and introduction of innovative structural materials in current collectors is the key point to solving this problem. Several recent studies have shown that metal nanowires can be used as novel current collector materials to fabricate flexible energy storage devices. Herein, we review the applications of metal nanowires in the field of flexible energy storage devices by selecting the three most representative metals (Au, Ag, and Cu). By the analysis of the various typical literature, the advantages and disadvantages of these three metal nanowires (Au, Ag, and Cu) are discussed respectively. Finally, we look forward to the development direction of one-dimensional (1D) metal nanowires in flexible energy storage devices and show the personal opinions with a reference value, hoping to provide the experience and ideas for related research in the future.

Abstract
Lithium-oxygen (Li-O2 ) batteries possess the highest theoretical energy density (3500 Wh kg-1 ), which makes them attractive candidates for modern electronics and transportation applications. In this work, an inexpensive, flexible, and wearable Li-O2 battery based on the bifunctional redox mediator of InBr3 , MoS2 cathode catalyst, and Fomblin-based oxygen permeable membrane that enable long-cycle-life operation of the battery in pure oxygen, dry air, and ambient air is designed, fabricated, and tested. The battery operates in ambient air with an open system air-breathing architecture and exhibits excellent cycling up to 240 at the high current density of 1 A g-1 with a relative humidity of 75%. The electrochemical performance of the battery including deep-discharge capacity, and rate capability remains almost identical after 1000 cycle in a bending fatigue test. This finding opens a new direction for utilizing high performance Li-O2 batteries for applications in the field of flexible and wearable electronics.

Abstract
An elastic and safe electrolyte is demanded for flexible batteries. Herein, a stretchable solid electrolyte comprised of crosslinked elastic polymer matrix, poly(vinylidene fluoride-hexafluoropropylene) (PVDF-HFP), and flameproof triethyl phosphate (TEP) is fabricated, which exhibits ultrahigh elongation of 450%, nonflammability and ionic conductivity above 1 mS cm-1. In addition, in order to improve the interface compatibility between the electrolyte and Li anode and stabilize the solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI), a protecting layer containing poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) is designed to effectively prevent the anode from reacting with TEP and optimize the chemical composition in SEI, leading to a tougher and more stable SEI on the anode. The LiFePO4/Li cells employing this double-layer electrolyte exhibit an 85.0% capacity retention after 300 cycles at 1 C. Moreover, a flexible battery based on this solid electrolyte is fabricated, which can work in stretched, folded, and twisted conditions. This design of a stretchable double-layer solid electrolyte provides a new concept for safe and flexible solid-state batteries.

Abstract
Lithium-sulfur batteries have ultrahigh theoretical energy densities, which makes them one of the most promising next-generation energy storage systems. However, it is still difficult to achieve large-scale commercialization because of the severe lithium polysulfide (LiPS) shuttle effect and low sulfur loading. Here, we report a flexible lithium-sulfur battery of a high sulfur loading with the assistance of NiCo2O4 nanofiber array grown carbon cloth. The NiCo2O4 nanofibers are ideal electrocatalysts for accelerating LiPS conversion kinetics through strong chemical interactions. Therefore, the composite cathode delivers a high specific capacity of 1280 mAh g-1 at 0.2 C with a sulfur loading of 3.5 mg cm-2, and it can maintain a high specific capacity of 660 mAh g-1 after 200 cycles, showing a good cycle stability. The "layer-by-layer" stacking strategy enables the Li-S battery with a high S loading of ∼9.0 mg cm-2 to deliver a high areal capacity of 8.9 mAh cm-2.

Abstract
Flexible batteries, which maintain their functions potently under various mechanical deformations, attract increasing interest due to potential applications in emerging portable and wearable electronics. Significant efforts have been devoted to material synthesis and structural designs to realize the mechanical flexibility of various batteries. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have a unique one-dimensional (1D) nanostructure and are convenient to further assemble into diverse macroscopic structures, such as 1D fibers, 2D films and 3D sponges/aerogels.

Abstract
Flexible and high-performance batteries are urgently required for powering flexible/wearable electronics. Lithium-sulfur batteries with a very high energy density are a promising candidate for high-energy-density flexible power source. Here, we report flexible lithium-sulfur full cells consisting of ultrastable lithium cloth anodes, polysulfone-functionalized separators, and free-standing sulfur/graphene/boron nitride nanosheet cathodes. The carbon cloth decorated with lithiophilic three-dimensional MnO2 nanosheets not only provides the lithium anodes with an excellent flexibility but also limits the growth of the lithium dendrites during cycling, as revealed by theoretical calculations. Commercial separators are functionalized with polysulfone (PSU) via a phase inversion strategy, resulting in an improved thermal stability and smaller pore size. Due to the synergistic effect of the PSU-functionalized separators and boron nitride-graphene interlayers, the shuttle of the polysulfides is significantly inhibited. Because of successful control of the shuttle effect and dendrite formation, the flexible lithium-sulfur full cells exhibit excellent mechanical flexibility and outstanding electrochemical performance, which shows a superlong lifetime of 800 cycles in the folded state and a high areal capacity of 5.13 mAh cm-2. We envision that the flexible strategy presented herein holds promise as a versatile and scalable platform for large-scale development of high-performance flexible batteries.

Abstract
Conventional carbonate-based liquid electrolytes have safety issues related to their high flammability and easy leakage. Therefore, it is essential to develop alternative electrolytes for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). As a potential candidate, solid-polymer electrolytes (SPEs) offer enhanced safety characteristics, while to be widely applied their performance still has to be improved. Here, we have prepared a series of UV-photocrosslinked flexible SPEs comprising poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate (PEGDA), trimethylolpropane ethoxylate triacrylate (ETPTA), and lithium bis(trifluoromethane sulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI) salt, with the addition of polydimethylsiloxane with acrylated terminal groups (acryl-PDMS) to diminish the crystallinity of the poly(ethylene glycol) chain. Polysiloxanes have gained interest for the fabrication of SPEs due to their unique features, such as decrement of glass transition temperature (Tg), and the ability to improve flexibility and facilitate lithium-ion transport. Freestanding, transparent SPEs with excellent flexibility and mechanical properties were achieved without any supporting backbone, despite the high content of lithium salt, which was enabled by their networked structure, the presence of polar functional groups, and their amorphous structure. The highest ionic conductivity for the developed cross-linked SPEs was 1.75 × 10−6 S cm−1 at room temperature and 1.07 × 10−4 S cm−1 at 80 °C. The SPEs demonstrated stable Li plating/stripping ability and excellent compatibility toward metallic lithium, and exhibited high electrochemical stability in a wide range of potentials, which enables application in high-voltage lithium-ion batteries.

Abstract
Zinc-based electrochemistry attracts significant attention for practical energy storage owing to its uniqueness in terms of low cost and high safety. In this work, we propose a 2.0-V high-voltage Zn–MnO2 battery with core@shell Co3O4@MnO2 on carbon cloth as a cathode, an optimized aqueous ZnSO4 electrolyte with Mn2+ additive, and a Zn metal anode. Benefitting from the architecture engineering of growing Co3O4 nanorods on carbon cloth and subsequently deposited MnO2 on Co3O4 with a two-step hydrothermal method, the binder-free zinc-ion battery delivers a high power of 2384.7 W kg−1, a high capacity of 245.6 mAh g−1 at 0.5 A g−1, and a high energy density of 212.8 Wh kg−1. It is found that the Mn2+ cations are in situ converted to Mn3O4 during electrochemical operations followed by a phase transition into electroactive MnO2 in our battery system. The charge-storage mechanism of the MnO2-based cathode is Zn2+/Zn and H+ insertion/extraction. This work shines light on designing multivalent cation-based battery devices with high output voltage, safety, and remarkable electrochemical performances.

Abstract
Due to its highly in-plane oriented crystal structure, the flexible graphite film (GF) possesses excellent electrochemical corrosion resistance, high planar electrical conductivity, and considerable mechanical strength. In this work, the laser-drilled integrated graphite film (porous-GF, PGF) is unprecedentedly used as a key to fabricate a high-performance high-energy 5 V-class flexible PGF/PGF-LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 full cell, where the flexible PGF is a self-standing flexible graphite anode for lithium-ion intercalation/deintercalation and a high-voltage resistance cathode current collector. This unique design based on the flexible PGF will endow the future flexible batteries with excellent characteristics of thin, lightweight, simple fabrication, and high energy. More encouragingly, unlike previously reported flexible electrodes using carbon nanomaterials as the nonmetal current collector, the mass production and processability of the flexible GF and PGF are feasible with the aid of commercially available roll-to-roll laser drilling technology.

Abstract
Thin and lightweight flexible lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) with high volumetric capacities are crucial for the development of flexible electronic devices. In the present work, we reported a paper-like ultrathin and flexible Si/carbon nanotube (CNT) composite anode for LIBs, which was realized by conformal electrodeposition of a thin layer of silicon on CNTs at ambient temperature. This method was quite simple and easy to scale up with low cost as compared to other deposition techniques, such as sputtering or CVD. The flexible Si/CNT composite exhibited high volumetric capacities in terms of the total volume of active material and current collector, surpassing the most previously reported Si-based flexible electrodes at various rates. In addition, the poor initial coulombic efficiency of the Si/CNT composites can be effectively improved by prelithiation treatment and a commercial red LED can be easily lighted by a full pouch cell using a Si/CNT composite as a flexible anode under flat or bent states. Therefore, the ultrathin and flexible Si/CNT composite is highly attractive as an anode material for flexible LIBs.

Abstract
A flexible and wearable aqueous symmetrical lithium-ion battery is developed using a single LiVPO4 F material as both cathode and anode in a "water-in-salt" gel polymer electrolyte. The symmetric lithium-ion chemistry exhibits high energy and power density and long cycle life, due to the formation of a robust solid electrolyte interphase consisting of Li2 CO3 -LiF, which enables fast Li-ion transport. Energy densities of 141 Wh kg-1 , power densities of 20 600 W kg-1 , and output voltage of 2.4 V can be delivered during >4000 cycles, which is far superior to reported aqueous energy storage devices at the same power level. Moreover, the full cell shows unprecedented tolerance to mechanical stress such as bending and cutting, where it not only does not catastrophically fail, as most nonaqueous cells would, but also maintains cell performance and continues to operate in ambient environment, a unique feature apparently derived from the high stability of the "water-in-salt" gel polymer electrolyte.

Abstract
Most of the existing flexible lithium ion batteries (LIBs) adopt the conventional cofacial cell configuration where anode, separator, and cathode are sequentially stacked and so have difficulty in the integration with emerging thin LIB applications, such as smart cards and medical patches. In order to overcome this shortcoming, herein, we report a coplanar cell structure in which anodes and cathodes are interdigitatedly positioned on the same plane. The coplanar electrode design brings advantages of enhanced bending tolerance and capability of increasing the cell voltage by in series-connection of multiple single-cells in addition to its suitability for the thickness reduction. On the basis of these structural benefits, we develop a coplanar flexible LIB that delivers 7.4 V with an entire cell thickness below 0.5 mm while preserving stable electrochemical performance throughout 5000 (un)bending cycles (bending radius = 5 mm). Also, even the pouch case serves as barriers between anodes and cathodes to prevent Li dendrite growth and short-circuit formation while saving the thickness. Furthermore, for convenient practical use wireless charging via inductive electromagnetic energy transfer and solar cell integration is demonstrated.

Abstract
The development of portable and wearable electronics has promoted increasing demand for high-performance power sources with high energy/power density, low cost, lightweight, as well as ultrathin and flexible features. Here, a new type of flexible Ni/Fe cell is designed and fabricated by employing Ni(OH)2 nanosheets and porous Fe2O3 nanorods grown on lightweight graphene foam (GF)/carbon nanotubes (CNTs) hybrid films as electrodes. The assembled f-Ni/Fe cells are able to deliver high energy/power densities (100.7 Wh/kg at 287 W/kg and 70.9 Wh/kg at 1.4 kW/kg, based on the total mass of active materials) and outstanding cycling stabilities (retention 89.1% after 1000 charge/discharge cycles). Benefiting from the use of ultralight and thin GF/CNTs hybrid films as current collectors, our f-Ni/Fe cell can exhibit a volumetric energy density of 16.6 Wh/l (based on the total volume of full cell), which is comparable to that of thin film battery and better than that of typical commercial supercapacitors. Moreover, the f-Ni/Fe cells can retain the electrochemical performance with repeated bendings. These features endow our f-Ni/Fe cells a highly promising candidate for next generation flexible energy storage systems.

A flexible hybrid anode from graphite and thin film silicon is realized by the concept of a 3D sandwich current collector by the combination of micro-contact printing and RF magnetron sputtering. Flexible lithium-ion batteries with a new hybrid anode demonstrate not only enhanced specific capacity but also improved rate capability compared to that of a conventional graphite anode under bending deformation.
