Abstract
Abstract Aqueous zinc‐ion batteries (AZIBs), have been identified as one of the most promising aqueous rechargeable metal‐ion batteries (ARMIBs) for grid scale electrochemical energy storage application, and as such have received much attention by virtue of their unique properties including the high abundance of metallic zinc resources, their intrinsic safety, and cost effectiveness. Among the cathode materials used in AZIBs, Prussian Blue Analogues (PBAs) represent the most promising active materials in view of their improved cyclability and rate performance. Here, we provide a comprehensive review on recent progress on AZIBs obtained using PBAs cathodes with a particular focus on the present understanding of the structure‐property correlation of different PBAs, which in turn guides further developments of improved cathode materials and optimization strategies to ensure an extended cyclability and capacity retention.
