Cycle number: the cycle performance of the battery is tested by charging and discharging at a current density of 50mA/g on a battery cycle test system, the cycle performance of the battery is represented by the number of cycles when the discharge depth (DOD) of the battery is reduced to 80%, the battery is kept still for 600s and then subjected to charge and discharge cycles, and the cycle steps are the same as the cycle charge and discharge.

As can be seen from table 7, the zinc ion battery having the positive electrode made of niobium oxide or a composite material thereof has a high specific capacity and a long cycle life. Therefore, the niobium oxide or the composite material thereof has a stable crystal structure, has a rapid zinc ion transmission channel, and can realize rapid intercalation and deintercalation of zinc ions. The zinc ion battery made of positive active materials such as manganese oxide, vanadium oxide or Prussian blue has lower specific capacity, and the vanadium oxide or Prussian blue has certain toxicity.
Comparative example 4 using an oxide of niobium or a composite material thereof in a magnesium ion battery system, it can be seen that the performance of the magnesium ion battery is not very good, being inferior to that of the zinc ion battery.
Comparison of examples 2-4 with example 1 shows that Nb is2O5The crystal form influences the performance of the zinc ion battery, wherein T-Nb2O5The zinc ion battery prepared by the crystal form has better performance. The zinc ion battery performance of the examples 5-13 is further improved after other metals or nonmetals are compounded. Examples 14-17 use Nb with varying carbon content2O5Examples 18 to 21 using Li with different Li doping amountsxNb2O5The performance of zinc ion batteries varies. The comparison of examples 22-27 with example 1 shows that the use of zinc hexafluorophosphate triflate is more effective. Comparison of examples 28-31 with example 1 shows that the separator has an effect on the battery performance, and the effect is better with the glass fiber separator.
