Problems solved by technology

Repeated charge and discharge cycles will aggravate this phenomenon, resulting in deformation of the zinc electrode and affecting the discharge capacity
In addition, part of the zincate does not deposit on the zinc electrode during charging, but deposits on the outside of the electrolyte and in the diaphragm, forming dendrites, which easily penetrate the battery diaphragm and cause an internal short circuit of the battery, reducing the cycle life and affecting the battery cycle.

Abstract

The invention discloses a negative material of a zinc-nickel rechargeable battery which is a composite material containing Sn6O4(OH)4-surface-modified ZnO, metal Zn powder and nano-carbon fiber, the quality percentage is 85-95 percent and 4-13 percent for Sn6O4(OH)4-surface-modified ZnO and metal Zn powder respectively, and the rest is for nano-carbon fiber, wherein the quality percentage of Sn6O4(OH)4 in ZnO is 1-25 percent. PTFE, CMC and PVA are added in the present negative material as binder, stirred uniformly with deionized water and then coated in the current collector foam nickel, and by the processes of drying and pressing, a Zn cathode is fabricated. By using the material to fabricate zinc-nickel rechargeable batteries, the batteries have long service life, stable circulation performance, and can be applied to electric tools, transportation means, electric toys, household appliances, communication instruments and lighting equipment etc.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a negative electrode material of a zinc-nickel secondary battery and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Zinc-nickel secondary batteries have the advantages of high specific energy, high specific power, rich raw materials, low cost and no environmental pollution. Compared with lead-acid batteries, nickel-cadmium batteries, and nickel-hydrogen batteries, they are ideal green power sources. However, the cycle life of zinc-nickel secondary batteries is short, which limits the wide application of such batteries. The deformation and dendrite growth of the negative zinc electrode are the main reasons for the short cycle life of the battery. The discharge product ZnO or Zn(OH) of the zinc electrode 2 It can dissolve into the alkaline electrolyte and has a high solubility. The resulting zincate tends to the middle and lower parts of the battery due to its high density, and is reductively deposited on the middl...
