Abstract

The invention relates to an air electrode used in an aluminum-air battery and a preparation method of the air electrode and belongs to the technical field of batteries. The air electrode can be used in the aluminum-air battery as a positive electrode and is prepared by laminating three layers, namely, a waterproof and gas-permeable layer, a catalyst layer and a collector layer, wherein the catalyst layer comprises the following components in percentage by weight: 30-90% of an electrode catalytic material, 5-30% of a conductive material and 5-40% of a binder material, wherein the total weight of the electrode catalytic material, the conductive material and the binder material is 100% by weight. By controlling the crystal form, doping metals, compounding carbon and the like, the obtained modified manganese dioxide material has catalytic efficiency comparable to that of a noble metal catalyst and can provide higher power for the aluminum-air battery. The preparation method of the catalytic electrode provided by the invention has the characteristics that the method is simple, efficient and clean and environmental pollution cannot be caused.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of batteries, and in particular relates to an air electrode for an aluminum-air battery and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Compared with other battery systems, aluminum-air batteries have the advantage of high energy density, which is 8 times that of lead-acid batteries and 2.7 times that of lithium-ion batteries. The advantage of its high energy density is related to the properties of aluminum metal. Aluminum is a high-energy carrier with a theoretical energy density of 2980Ah / kg, second only to metal lithium at 3870Ah / kg, and a volumetric energy density of 8050Ah / m 3 , 4 times that of lithium. [0003] The research on aluminum-air batteries began in the 1960s, and S.Zaromb et al initially confirmed the theoretical feasibility of aluminum-air batteries. In the 1970s, scholars' research focused on the application of aluminum-air batteries to power sources such as navigation li...
