Here, by revisiting vanadium\u2010oxide synthesis history and nucleation mechanisms, we establish a nucleation\u2010kinetics\u2013driven, pH\u2010controlled supersaturation strategy that enables mild and scalable NVO synthesis. Moreover, this method provides a reliable platform for systematic interlayer chemistry studies. A comparative investigation of cations\u2010intercalated NVO establishes a unified descriptor, weighted ionic potential, \u03b4 = Z\/r \u00d7 EN(\u2005(valence\/radius) \u00d7 electronegativity), which quantifies the effective polarizing power and metal\u2013oxygen interaction of interlayer cations. Experimental correlation and theory analysis identify the most effective stabilizing species. To further enhance capacity without sacrificing stability, redox\u2010active molecules are co\u2010intercalated into Al\n                    <jats:sup>3+<\/jats:sup>\n                    \u2010stabilized NVO.
