In article number 2005406, Esther S. Takeuchi, Yimei Zhu, and co‐workers demonstrate the dissolution‐mediated reaction mechanism of Zn/α‐MnO 2 system for aqueous zinc‐ion batteries via transmission electron microscopy. It involves α‐MnO 2 dissolution that activates the cell by inducing the reversible formation of Zn 4 SO 4 (OH) 6 · x H 2 O and ZnMn 3 O 7 ·3H 2 O upon electrochemical cycling via (de‐)insertion of Mn and Zn ions.
