The invention provides a
zinc negative
electrode material, a
zinc negative
electrode and a
nickel-
zinc battery in order to solve the problem that an oxidation film generated by a negative
electrode of a
nickel-zinc battery in the prior art hinders
electron conduction and influences electrochemical performance. The zinc negative
electrode material comprises a negative electrode active material, the negative electrode active material comprises a zinc
composite material, the zinc
composite material has a core-shell structure, the core-shell structure comprises an inner core, a middle layer and a shell layer, the inner core is zinc
powder, the middle layer coats the inner core, and the shell layer coats the middle layer. According to the zinc negative
electrode material provided by the invention, the surface of the inner core zinc
powder is coated with the middle layer, so that the effect of protecting the zinc
powder is achieved,
corrosion to the zinc powder is slowed down, and the basic performance of the zinc powder is maintained; besides, the surface of the middle layer is coated with the shell layer, the property of the surface of the zinc powder can be changed, meanwhile, the shell layer can cover
hydrogen evolution reaction active sites on the surface of the middle layer, the shell layer can adjust the
reduction potential of the zinc powder, the overall
hydrogen evolution
overpotential on the surface of the zinc powder is increased, the
hydrogen evolution
side reaction is reduced, and the stability of the electrochemical performance of the battery is guaranteed.
