The cathode material synthesized with 1:3 zinc to manganese ratio has the highest initial capacity and also best rate performance. Then, gelatin modified separator was introduced into the battery system to prolong the battery cycle life. The capacity retention achieves 91.3% after 500 cycles at the current density of 300mA·g-1, which is an unimaginable improvement.enaqueous zinc ion batterygelatincation deficientMaster Thesis
