Problems solved by technology

[0003] The catalyst in the positive electrode in the metal-air battery plays the role of catalytic reduction of oxygen. The catalyst types used are noble metal catalysts, mainly platinum, gold, silver or their alloys, metal chelates, etc., and its disadvantage is that it is expensive; The disadvantage of metal chelates is that the manufacturing process is complicated, and it is difficult to store the batteries produced for a long time; there is also manganese oxide catalyst, whose disadvantage is that the current density is low, which is not only suitable for mass production, but also has Catalyst with high current density, which is one of the important factors restricting the mass production of metal-air batteries
