	Aqueous rechargeable Zn-metal batteries (AZMBs) are promising energy storage aids due to their inherent safety, low cost, and competent performance, with prospects in stationary and portable applications. In this regard, one of the critical requirements is developing electrodes that can adapt to mechanical deformation without compromising the charge storage performance. The current work demonstrates the development of a binder-free and mechanically flexible composite cathode film (VP/fCNT-F, where `F' stands for the film) based on VOPO4 (VP) and functionalized carbon nanotubes (fCNTs). The VP/fCNT-F film processing involves simple vacuum filtration of the composite obtained from the in-situ reaction of the fCNTs and the VP precursor in an aqueous medium. The functionalization of carbon nanotube (CNT) is important for the homogenous dispersion of VP and fCNT. The VP/fCNT-F electrode is used as a monolithic electrode in AZMB cells in combination with both liquid and quasi-solid-state gel polymer electrolytes. Besides, the utility of the VP/fCNT-F electrode in a flexible battery configuration is also demonstrated. Interestingly, in both the coin-cell and flexible configurations, the VP/fCNT-F electrode delivers a comparable discharge capacity of 90 and 78 mAh g(-1), respectively (at 0.1 A g(-1)), validating the advantage of the binder-free VP/fCNT-F electrode for AZMBs.&lt;/p&gt;

	Aqueous rechargeable batteries are promising grid-scale energy storage devices because of their affordability, operational safety, and environmental benignity. Among these, Zn-ion batteries (ZIBs) have unfolded new horizons. Designing superior cathodes for ZIBs is crucial. Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) can be made redox active with a high storage surface. Here, for the first time, a chelating COF with redox-active ZnI2 in a ZnSO4(aq) electrolyte is combined. Including iodide harvests an approximately threefold enhancement in capacity from 208 to 690 mAh g(-1) at 1.5 A g(-1), the highest among all the COF-derived ZIBs. Remarkably, a charge-discharge curve at 1.3 V exhibits very limited dropout voltage and super-flat platform, with a remarkable capacity of 600 mAh g(-1) at 5 A g(-1) stable up to 6000 cycles, confirming that the polyiodide generation and storage are sustainable. The COF's dual-ion storage (Zn2+ and polyidode) delivers a ZIB with the highest energy density. Spectro-electrochemical measurements coupled with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy unambiguously unveil the existence of multiple polyiodide species, with I-3(-) and IO3- ions as the prominent species. The latter gets reduced at the COF electrode under an applied potential, leaving I-3(-) as the major species stored on the COF. The prospect of COF-polyiodide((aq)) is a windfall for metal-ion batteries.&lt;/p&gt;
