Abstract Aqueous zinc‐ion batteries (ZIBs) are considered as the promising candidate of flexible energy storage devices due to their high safety, eco‐friendliness, and low‐cost. However, conventional aqueous ZIBs undergo severe capacity loss at bending subzero temperature states. Herein, an anti‐freezing hydrogel electrolyte based on zinc tetrafluoroborate (Zn(BF 4 ) 2 polyacrylamide (PAM) is developed. Owing strong electronegativity F atoms, BF − anions interact with water molecules by OH···F replace OH···O between in Zn(BF ‐PAM electrolyte, inhibiting formation ice crystal lattice low‐temperature. Therefore, remains unfrozen state, good flexibility, ionic conductivity even −70 °C, which ensures that they can act electrolytes ZIBs. As a proof concept, all‐in‐one integrated configuration assembled hydrogel. They display enhanced electrochemical performance such retention remarkable cyclic stability. Furthermore, also maintain stable under different states °C. This work broadens practical application ultralow temperature.

Aqueous zinc-ion hybrid supercapacitors (ZHSCs) represent one of the current research subjects because their flame retardancy, ease manufacturing, and exceptional roundtrip efficiency. With evolution into real useful energy storage cells, bottleneck factors corrosion dendrite growth problems must be properly resolved for largely boosting cycling life Herein, a natural polysaccharide strengthened hydrogel electrolyte (denoted as PAAm/agar/Zn(CF3SO3)2) was engineered by designing an asymmetric dual network covalently cross-linked polyacrylamide PAAm) physically loose (e.g., agar) followed intense uptake Zn(CF3SO3)2 aqueous electrolyte. In this polymeric matrix, PAAm chains are responsible constructing soft domains to immobilize water molecules, agar component boosts mechanical performance (by using its inherent reversible sacrificial bonds) favors ion transport.
