Problems solved by technology

[0005] For example, although the lithium-oxygen battery has been successfully developed, the disordered growth of its product lithium peroxide seriously hinders the effective occurrence of the reaction during use. The volume expansion caused by the process leads to uncontrollable cracks and branch crystal growth directions. At the same time, a new solid electrolyte interface film is formed on the surface of the metal and the electrolyte, which reduces the Coulombic efficiency, increases the battery impedance, and leads to a short circuit of the battery, causing a series of safety hazards. problems, seriously hindering the large-scale industrial application

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of metal-air secondary batteries, in particular to a metal-oxygen secondary battery, in particular to a metal-oxygen secondary battery based on a lithium-sodium alloy negative electrode. Background technique [0002] Air battery is a kind of chemical battery. Its construction principle is similar to that of dry battery. The difference is that its positive electrode active material is taken from oxygen or pure oxygen in the air. It is also called oxygen battery. It is usually divided into lithium-air battery according to the negative electrode material. , Zinc-air batteries, aluminum-air batteries and magnesium-air batteries. [0003] Zinc-air batteries use zinc as the negative electrode, sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide as the electrolyte, and the positive electrode is porous activated carbon, so the positive electrode can absorb oxygen in the air to replace the oxidant in general dry batteries. Zinc...
