The ZIP membranes demonstrate excellent physicochemical and electrochemical properties, including an electrochemical stability window of >2.4 V versus Zn|Zn2+ and dendrite-free plating/stripping processes in symmetric Zn||Zn cells. Besides, a UV-polymerization-assisted in situ process is developed to produce ZIP (abbreviated i-ZIP), which is adopted for the first time to fabricate a nonaqueous zinc-metal polymer battery (ZMPB; VOPO4 |i-ZIP|Zn) and zinc-metal hybrid polymer supercapacitor (ZMPS; activated carbon|i-ZIP|Zn) cells. The VOPO4 cathode employed in ZMPB possesses a layered morphology, exhibiting a high average operating voltage of ≈1.2 V. As compared to the conventional polymer cell assembling approach using the ex situ process, the in situ process is simple and it enhances the overall electrochemical performance, which enables the widespread intrusion of ZMPBs and ZMPSs into the application domain. Indeed, considering the promising aspects of the proposed ZIP and its easy processability, this work opens up a new direction for the emergence of the zinc-based energy storage technologies.Polyionenes (PI) with stable positive charges and tunable hydrophobic spacers in the polymer backbone, are shown to be particularly efficient regarding antimicrobial properties. This effect can be modulated since it increases with the length of hydrophobic spacers, i.e., the number of methylene groups between quaternary ammoniums. Now, to further explore these properties and provide efficient antimicrobial surfaces, polyionenes should be grafted onto materials. Here a robust grafting strategy to covalently attach polyionenes is described. The method consisted in a seque
