Abstract
An intrinsically highly stretchable and compressible Zn-air rechargeable battery with good electrochemical performance was fabricated for the first time. It exhibits the merits of 300% intrinsic stretchability and 85% intrinsic compressibility with excellently retained electrochemical performance, a decrease in catalyst cost of 40 times, the fewest number of components and facile fabrication.
