However, the electrochemical mechanism at the cathode of aqueous zinc–manganese batteries (AZMBs) is complicated due to different electrode materials, electrolytes and working conditions. These complicated mechanisms severely limit the research progress of AZMBs system and the design of cells with better performance.

The development of zinc–manganese batteries was first started with primary alkaline batteries in the 1860s, followed by secondary alkaline batteries. Later, the development of mild neutral and weak acid batteries made a breakthrough on the AZMBs with the superiority of safety, environmental benefits and long circular life.
In recent years, manganese dioxide (MnO 2)-based materials have been extensively explored as cathodes for Zn-ion batteries. Based on the research experiences of our group in the field of aqueous zinc ion batteries and combining with the latest literature of system, we systematically summarize the research progress of Zn−MnO 2 batteries.
Therefore, refining the regulation of electrochemical processes at the interface into the regulation of mass transfer and charge transfer is an effective and feasible idea. Aqueous zinc–manganese batteries (ZMBs) are increasingly being favored as a safe and environmentally-friendly battery candidate [6–14].
Due to the characteristics of low toxicity and safety of electrode materials, constructing wearable devices with zinc–manganese batteries is also one of the current development directions of the system [35, , , , , , , ].
