Problems solved by technology

However, since the slow kinetic progression of oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) limits the efficiency of metal-air batteries, it is urgent to develop bifunctional catalysts with high activity and stability.
Dai et al. prepared cobalt oxide / carbon nanotubes and nickel-iron-layered double hydroxide electrocatalysts for rechargeable zinc-air battery cathodes, but still remained in pure oxygen conditions, and the battery model was complicated [Nature Communications , 2013, 249, 1805-1806]
Electrocatalytic activity and stability of certain cobalt-like spinel oxides, such as Co 3 o 4 [J.Mater.Chem.A2014,2,3794-3800] and CoMn 2 o 4 [A.Chem.Soc.2014,6,16545-16555], nickel cobaltate and nickel oxides and NiCo 2 o 4 / Graphene and other studies have been reported, but it is mainly used in oxygen reduction (ORR) [J.Power.Sou.2014,272,808-815], and the direct application of catalysts to metal zinc-air batteries should be rare [J.Mater .Chem.2013,1,4754–4762]
In addition, the preparation process of the above-mentioned catalysts is complicated, which is not conducive to industrial scale preparation
