Frontiers and Structural Engineering for Building Flexible Zinc–Air Batteries

With the development of flexible devices, the demand for wearable power sources has increased and gradually become imperative. Zinc–air batteries (ZABs) have attracted lots of research interest due to their high theoretical energy density and excellent safety properties, which can meet the wearable energy supply requirements. Here, the flexibility of energy storage devices is discussed first, followed by the chemistries and development of flexible ZABs. The design of flexible electrodes, the properties of solid‐state electrolytes (SSEs), and the construction of deformable structures are discussed in depth. The researchers working on flexible energy storage devices will benefit from the work.
