Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, in order to realize the wide application of lithium-oxygen secondary batteries, a series of problems need to be solved, such as high overpotential, low discharge capacity, and short cycle life.
At present, the commercially used porous carbon air cathodes are all obtained by stacking carbon materials to create pores. The utilization rate of the pores is low, the connectivity is poor, and the mass transfer capacity is poor, which affects the discharge product Li. 2 o 2 deposition, leading to an increase in the overpotential of the lithium-oxygen secondary battery, and a small number of charge and discharge cycles
On the other hand, the loading of oxygen reduction / oxygen evolution catalysts in the existing porous carbon air cathode is mainly by mechanical mixing, which cannot effectively exert the synergistic effect between the carrier and the catalyst, and further deteriorates the energy conversion efficiency of lithium-air batteries. and rate performance
[0005] Moreover, in recent years, the development of flexible energy devices such as lithium-ion batteries, supercapacitors and piezoelectric devices has laid the foundation for the field of wearable electronics, but their low energy density is difficult to meet the needs of wearable devices for long battery life.
Lithium-oxygen secondary batteries have attracted extensive attention in the field of flexible energy devices due to their high theoretical energy density, but most of the positive electrodes of lithium-oxygen secondary batteries are rigid and inflexible, and the assembled lithium-oxygen It is difficult for secondary battery devices to achieve complex twist deformation changes, which cannot meet the needs of wearable devices
