Problems solved by technology

However, most of the elements with high hydrogen evolution overpotential contain toxic heavy metals, which will pollute the environment and cause harm to the human body, and should be avoided in metal alloys
At the same time, under the working condition of high current density, the aluminum alloy anode is severely polarized, and the stable working potential is relatively positive, which cannot meet the technical requirements of the power supply, which seriously hinders the application of alkaline aluminum-air batteries in actual industrial production.

Abstract

The invention provides an aluminum alloy electrode material. The aluminum alloy electrode material comprises 0.1-3 wt% of Mg, 0.05-1 wt% of Sn, 0.01-0.5 wt% of Ga, 0.02-0.1 wt% of RE and the balance Al. According to the aluminum alloy electrode material, an aluminum substrate is doped with a certain amount of magnesium, stannum, gallium and the rare earth element, on the basis of improving the activity of an aluminum anode, through the refining function of the rear earth element on grains, corrosion of the aluminum anode is evener, and the corrosion rate is lowered; meanwhile on the one hand, due to addition of the elements, the electrochemical performance of the aluminum alloy is good; on the other hand, the added elements are free of contamination; and the rare earth element is added in the form of an aluminum rare earth master alloy, and the price is low. The invention further provides a preparation method of the aluminum alloy electrode material and application of the aluminum alloy electrode material in air batteries.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of air batteries, in particular to an aluminum alloy electrode material, its preparation method and its application. Background technique [0002] Metal-air battery (MAB) has the characteristics of high energy density, low cost, green and pollution-free, long discharge life and safe use, and is called "green energy for the 21st century". The energy density of MAB depends only on the metal electrode, the greater the energy density of the metal electrode, the greater the energy density of the battery. Aluminum-air batteries have become a research hotspot in the field of MBA recently because of their high energy density (2980Ah / kg, second only to lithium), low price, and abundant reserves. [0003] Aluminum is a good battery anode material. The standard electrode potential is -1.65V (vs. SCE) in a neutral electrolyte environment and -2.35V (vs. SCE) in a strong alkaline electrolyte environment, but aluminum T...
