Aqueous zinc ion batteries (AZIBs) show great prospects in large‐scale energy storage applications, whereas this technology suffers from the lack of cathode materials with high capacity and stability. Here, a cathode material of SbO2 nanoparticles decorated onto the surface of K0.43V6O13 nanobelt is presented. The SbO2 is disclosed as proton‐phile and zinc‐phobic, which thus favors H+ intercalation. In consequence, the increase of H+ intercalation can offset the lattice shrinkage caused by Zn2+ intercalation, and contribute to excellent cyclic stability of the battery. Finally, SbO2/K0.43V6O13 delivers a reversible capacity of 414.2 mAh g−1 at 1 A g−1 after 1000 cycles with a retention of 103%, and 223.5 mAh g−1 at 20 A g−1 after 20 000 cycles with a retention of 89.3%, showing long cycling life at both low current and high current densities. This study provides new insights into the effecting factors for the performance of AZIBs cathode and an effective strategy to improve its stability. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
