Abstract

The invention relates to a composite catalyst of an air electrode of a lithium-air cell. The composite catalyst comprises a metal catalyst, and a support for performing synergic catalysis with the metal catalyst. The metal catalyst is uniformly distributed on the surface of the support via in-situ loading. The metal catalyst accounts for 0.01 wt%-99.9 wt% of the composite catalyst, preferably 0.1 wt%-60 wt%, and more preferably 0.5 wt%-5 wt%. By utilizing the metal catalyst and the support with synergic effect on the metal catalyst, the composite catalyst of the air electrode is formed, the dispersibility and the stability of the original metal catalyst are improved, and also the catalytic activity not owned or unreached by the single metal catalyst is induced to generate.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a catalyst that can be used for an air electrode of a lithium-air battery, and belongs to the field of chemical power sources. Background technique [0002] Regardless of the development of portable electronic products or electric vehicles, there is an urgent need for an energy storage battery that is lighter and thinner than the existing battery system and has a higher energy density to support it. Due to the limitation of its structure, the currently used lithium-ion battery has a low specific capacity, and the space for further improvement is limited. Therefore, a new battery system must be found as a substitute. Lithium-air batteries are a strong candidate. The positive active material is oxygen, which does not need to be stored in the battery. It is directly provided by the air in the environment during the discharge process, which reduces the total mass of the battery system, thereby increasing the energy density. Its t...
