Aqueous rechargeable Zn-ion batteries (ARZIB) are promising candidates for next-generation batteries because of their high safety, low cost, and relatively high capacity. In this study, we developed hydrated and potassium-doped manganese dioxide (MO) nanowires mixed with carbon nanotubes (CNT) on a graphene substrate (hydrated KMO-CNT/graphene) for ARZIB. A simple polyol process using poly(ethyl glycol), KMnO4, CNT, and graphene was utilized to fabricate hydrated KMO-CNT/graphene. MnO2 nanowires with diameters of 15-25 nm possess a high specific capacity with a short diffusion path. The intercalated K ions and hydrates in the layered MnO2 nanowires maintained the MO structure during the charge and discharge processes, whereas carbon nanomaterials (CNT and graphene) enhanced the conductivity of the material. Consequently, hydrated KMO-CNT/graphene demonstrated good ARZIB performance. A high capacity of 359.8 mAh g(-1) at 0.1 A g(-1), and at a high current density of 3.0 A g(-1), a capacity of 129 mAh g(-1) with 77% retention after 1000 cycles, were achieved.
