The Cover Feature illustrates a zinc‐air battery using crosslinked poly(acrylic acid)‐based electrolyte. Gels with lower crosslinker content have higher conductivity and better water retention, while higher crosslinker content in the gel network can help reduce zinc electrode dendrite formation and shape change.
