Hydrogel Electrolytes for Flexible Rechargeable Zinc-Air Batteries

该项目旨在通过创新功能水凝胶作为固态电解质来推进柔性可充电锌空气电池（ZABs）的发展。柔性可充电zab是新兴柔性电子器件中最有前途的电源，但缺乏高性能柔性电解质是其应用的关键瓶颈。基于水凝胶的创新，该项目将解决柔性可充电ZABs中柔性电解质的最关键挑战。该项目的研究成果将创造多学科研究产生的新知识，并为实现新一代柔性可充电ZABs作为高效耐用的柔性储能技术铺平道路。

This project aims to advance the development of flexible rechargeable zinc-air batteries (ZABs) by innovating functional hydrogels as solid-state electrolytes. Flexible rechargeable ZABs are the most promising power source for emerging flexible electronics, but lacking of high-performance flexible electrolytes is a critical bottleneck for their applications. Based on hydrogel innovation, this project will address the most critical challenges of flexible electrolytes in flexible rechargeable ZABs. Findings from this project will create new knowledge generated from multidisciplinary research and pave the way to realise a new generation of flexible rechargeable ZABs as a highly efficient and durable flexible energy storage technology.
