Problems solved by technology

However, due to the small lattice constant of manganese dioxide, it is difficult to intercalate and deintercalate zinc ions, resulting in a slow rate of intercalation and deintercalation of zinc ions in the battery during charging / discharging, so that the performance of zinc ion batteries needs to be further improved.

Abstract

The invention discloses an aqueous electrolyte rechargeable zinc ion battery, belonging to the technical field of battery preparation. The battery disclosed herein is characterized in that: the cathode active material mainly comprises zinc ions (Zn<2+>)- intercalated and -removed copper (nickel) ferricyanide, the anode active material mainly comprises zinc, and the electrolyte which is liquid or gel comprises soluble salts of zinc as the solute and water as the solvent. According to the invention, the zinc ions can be intercalated in the copper (nickel) ferricyanide cathode material lattices or be removed from the copper (nickel) ferricyanide cathode material lattices, simultaneously the anode material mainly comprising zinc is subject to oxidation or reduction, thus the battery has the characteristics of high specific capacity and rapid charging, and the battery can be widely applied in the fields of portable mobile terminal, equipment, miniature electric vehicle and automobile starting battery, etc.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of battery preparation, and in particular relates to a rechargeable zinc-ion battery with aqueous electrolyte. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of the global economy, the supply of fossil fuels and environmental issues have become increasingly prominent. Therefore, the comprehensive and efficient development and utilization of new green energy has become a key link to ensure the security of national energy resources and implement the national energy sustainable development strategy. Compared with primary batteries, secondary batteries can repeat charge and discharge cycles many times and can make full use of raw materials, so they are more economical and practical. The most widely used rechargeable battery is the lithium-ion battery. Lithium-ion batteries use lithium ions as an energy storage medium to store electrical energy, and the charging and discharging of the battery is realiz...
