[0064] The pretreatment process of CarbonPapers (carbon paper) is:

[0065] Cut the carbon paper without leveling layer into a square piece of 5cm×5cm.

[0066] The preparation process of carbon-based cathode CNT@CarbonPapers is:

[0067] First, weigh 50 mg of CNT and 5.56 mg of PVDF according to the mass ratio of CNT:PVDF=9:1, put them in an agate mortar and grind them for 20 minutes while mixing them, then pour them into a 100 mL beaker, add 50 mL of absolute ethanol, magnetically stirred for 30 minutes, so that PVDF can be fully dissolved in absolute ethanol. Then the mixture was placed in an ultrasonic cell disruptor for 30 min so that the CNTs could be fully dispersed in absolute ethanol. Use an ultrasonic sprayer to evenly spray the mixture of CNT, PVDF and absolute ethanol on the surface of the pretreated Carbon Papers, and then place the Carbon Papers in an oven to dry for 12 hours to form the positive electrode sheet CNT@Carbon Papers. Finally, according to the spe...

[0070] Cutting and cleaning of nickel foam:

[0071] The untreated nickel foam was cut into discs with a diameter of 4 cm, rinsed repeatedly with deionized water three times, and then soaked in a hydrochloric acid solution with a mass fraction of 15% for 30 minutes to remove the oxide layer covered on the surface of the nickel foam. The nickel foam after the oxide layer was removed was repeatedly rinsed with deionized water and then dried in a vacuum oven for 12 hours.

[0072] The cleaned nickel foam can provide a cleaner adhesion surface for the hydroxide deposited in the hydrothermal process.

Abstract

The invention is suitable for the field of electrochemical energy, and provides a lithium-air battery amorphous carbon anode, a preparation method thereof and a lithium-air battery. The preparation method comprises the steps of forming a cobalt manganese hydroxide on nickel foam through hydrothermal reaction; annealing in air, and converting the cobalt manganese hydroxide into MnCo2O4 to obtain Ni-supported MnCo2O4; performing hydrothermal reaction to enable the Ni-supported MnCo2O4 to compound with nickel hydroxide; annealing in air, and converting the nickel hydroxide in Ni-supported MnCo2O4 compound nickel hydroxide into NiO, thus obtaining the lithium-air battery amorphous carbon anode. According to the lithium-air battery amorphous carbon anode, the preparation method thereof and the lithium-air battery, provided by the invention, the MnCo2O4 is tightly combined onto a nickel foam substrate through a high-temperature high-pressure hydro-thermal synthesis process and an annealing and calcining process thereafter, so as to form porous amorphous carbon anode MnCo2O4@Ni which is of a three-dimensional structure and takes mesoporous as the dominant, and then the NiO is compounded to the MnCo2O4@Ni through a further high-temperature high-pressure hydro-thermal synthesis process and an annealing and calcining process thereafter, so as to form a NiO / MnCo2O4@Ni amorphous carbon anode finally.

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of electrochemical energy, and in particular relates to a non-carbon positive electrode of a lithium-air battery, a preparation method thereof, and a lithium-air battery. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the rapid development of the economy, environmental problems and oil energy crisis have become increasingly serious, and people's demand for clean energy has become increasingly urgent. Lithium-air batteries have good application prospects in the field of clean energy due to their high energy density, environmental friendliness, and electrochemical reversibility, and are expected to surpass lithium-ion batteries as a new generation of energy storage battery systems. [0003] In a lithium-air battery, the air positive electrode has a porous structure to provide a channel for external oxygen to enter the battery.
