Abstract

The invention discloses a three-dimensional graphene-based combined electrode with a MnO2 and Au nanoparticle-coating surface. By taking three-dimensional porous foam nickel as a matrix, graphene directly grows on the matrix, and flower-shaped delta-MnO2 directly grows on the graphene and loaded with Au nanoparticles. The invention further discloses a preparation method and applications of the three-dimensional graphene-based combined electrode with the MnO2 and Au nanoparticle-coating surface. The preparation method has the advantages of being simple in preparation technology, low in cost, short in period, low in energy consumption and the like, and is suitable for industrial mass production; the prepared three-dimensional graphene-based combined electrode does not contain any conductive agent and binder, and due to the synergistic catalytic action of a special three-dimensional porous structure and the flower-shaped delta-MnO2, Au nanoparticles and graphene, the three-dimensional graphene-based combined electrode shows low polarization and better cycling stability when being used as a lithium-air battery cathode.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of composite electrodes for lithium-air batteries, in particular to a surface-coated MnO 2 Three-dimensional graphene-based composite electrode with Au nanoparticles, preparation method and application. Background technique [0002] Lithium-air battery is a new type of energy storage device that uses metal lithium as the negative electrode, air (or oxygen) as the positive electrode, and a lithium ion conductor as the electrolyte. The theoretical energy density of lithium-air batteries is as high as 11680Wh / kg (excluding O 2 , if including O 2 , then 5200Wh / kg). Considering the weight of catalyst, electrolyte, battery packaging, etc., the actual available energy density of lithium-air batteries is about 1700Wh / kg, which is comparable to the energy density of gasoline and much higher than that of nickel-hydrogen (50Wh / kg), Energy density of lithium-ion (160Wh / kg), lithium-sulfur (370Wh / kg), zinc-air (350Wh / kg) batte...
