Abstract: This paper reviewed the state-of-art of the potassium-ion batteries, including the electrochemical properties and their existing issues of Prussian blue and P2, P3 phase layered cathode materials, the electrochemical properties and potassium storage mechanism of carbon-based anode materials (graphite, hard carbon, soft carbon, etc.), and the current advantage and disadvantage of the electrolyte. And the analysis revealed that some current attempted materials, including the Prussian blue analogues and non-graphite carbon, had shown the high specific capacity and long cyclic performance, while large volume variation had been detected for the general oxides cathodes and graphite anode during the intercalation/removal process of the potassium cation, and a high compatible electrolyte had also not been obtained for both cathode and anode material. Therefore, there are still urgent needs on developing better electrode materials and electrolyte formulas for potassium-ion batteries.

Key words: potassium ion battery, cathode material, anode material, electrolyte, electrochemistry
