Abstract

The invention discloses a high efficient air electrode carbon material of a lithium-air battery and a preparation method thereof. The air electrode carbon material has a composite structure, and comprises a support layer made of carbon and a catalytic layer made of carbon, wherein the catalytic layer completely or partially covers the support layer. The composite structure maintains the micro-porous structure and good conductivity of the carbon material of the support layer, and has the catalytic performance of the carbon material of the catalytic layer at the same time, so the electrochemical property of the lithium-air battery is prominently improved, and the primary discharge capacity is improved by 30% or more. The invention further provides a controllable preparation method of the air electrode carbon material. A composite electrode carbon material with a controllable catalytic layer thickness, nitrogen-carbon structure, and nitrogen content can be obtained by the provided preparation method, which has the characteristics of low cost and simple technology process.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of batteries, in particular to the field of lithium-air batteries, and in particular to an air electrode carbon material. Background technique [0002] Li-air battery is the energy storage device with the highest theoretical energy density, and it is the development direction of chemical power source. Its positive electrode active material is oxygen, which comes directly from the air and is inexhaustible. Even if it is used on a large scale, there will be no resource crisis; the negative electrode active material is metal lithium, with the highest capacity, which can reach 3.81Ahg -1 , the reaction potential is only slightly higher than that of the calcium metal system. Therefore, lithium-air batteries have the potential to achieve 1000Whkg -1 The above device energy density is close to that of gasoline. Under this energy density, the cruising range of electric vehicles can reach more than 600 kilometers. In addit...
