Problems solved by technology

However, in practical applications, since the reduction potential of tin (-0.14) is about 0.6V higher than that of zinc (-0.76), the co-deposition of tin and zinc usually results in difficult control of the deposition rate of zinc and tin, and the distribution of elements Uneven, rough coating, and even tin whiskers, etc., make the zinc-tin alloy unable to obtain the required anti-corrosion effect

Abstract

The invention discloses a porous zinc-tin alloy negative electrode material for a zinc-air battery and a preparation method of the porous zinc-tin alloy negative electrode material, belonging to the field of new energy technology development. The porous zinc-tin alloy negative material comprises a foamed nickel substrate and a zinc-tin alloy plating layer, wherein the zinc-tin alloy plating layer is uniformly coated on the foamed nickel substrate, tin and zinc in the zinc-tin alloy plating layer are uniformly distributed, and the mole ratio of tin to zinc is (0.01-0.20):1. In the porous zinc-tin alloy negative electrode material, foamed nickel is taken as a negative electrode, electroplating is carried out in an electroplating liquid containing a complexing agent to obtain the porous zinc-tin alloy negative electrode material, and the electroplating liquid containing the complexing agent is selected from one of a pyrophosphate system electroplating liquid, a gluconate system electroplating liquid, a citrate system electroplating liquid and a tartaric acid system electroplating liquid. The porous zinc-tin alloy negative electrode material has the advantages that the material structure is reasonable in design, the preparation process is simple, and industrial application and production at a large scale are promoted.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention discloses a porous zinc-tin alloy negative electrode material for a zinc-air battery and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the field of new energy technology development. Background technique [0002] As a device that can store electrical energy generated by other clean energy sources and provide it to various devices, batteries have been widely used and researched. As an aqueous metal-air battery, zinc-air battery has the advantages of high specific energy, good safety, stable discharge voltage, abundant raw materials, and environmental friendliness. These problems hinder the further development and application of zinc-air batteries. [0003] As the active material of alkaline zinc-air batteries, the zinc anode directly determines the size of the battery capacity, and also has a great impact on the safety, working voltage, power efficiency, charge and discharge power, recyclability, and storage life of the battery. Zinc anodes...
