Abstract

The invention relates to a polypyrrole-clad nano spherical zinc oxide material with a core-shell structure and a preparation method. The polypyrrole-clad nano spherical zinc oxide material takes nano spherical zinc oxide as a core and polypyrrole as a shell cladding the surface of a zinc oxide particle. The preparation method comprises the steps of adding a precipitant such as hexamine to a zinc source, preparing a nano spherical zinc oxide particle by a hydrothermal reaction, adding nano zinc oxide to a solution containing a surfactant to form zinc oxide sol, adding a pyrrole monomer and an oxidant, performing in-situ oxidation polymerization, and forming a polypyrrole-clad layer on the surface of the zinc oxide particle. The prepared polypyrrole-clad nano zinc oxide material with the core-shell structure has a larger specific surface area; the activity of the nano zinc oxide material is improved; aggregation of the nano zinc oxide particle can be well avoided; existing of the polypyrrole-clad layer effectively alleviates pine-tree crystal forming of the zinc oxide particle in charging and discharging processes; and the cycle life of an electrode is significantly prolonged.

Description

technical field

[0001] The invention relates to a polypyrrole-coated nano-zinc oxide material and a preparation method, which can effectively improve the reversibility and Coulomb efficiency of the electrode when applied to the negative electrode of a nickel-zinc alkaline secondary battery, and improve the cycle life of the electrode. The technical field of anode materials for secondary nickel-zinc batteries. Background technique

[0002] As the most widely used anode material in aqueous primary battery systems, zinc electrodes have many advantages, such as high energy density, high open circuit voltage, no pollution to the environment, abundant reserves and low cost. Therefore, attempts to apply zinc electrodes in alkaline secondary batteries have been attracting attention. However, when used as a negative electrode material for a secondary battery, since its discharge product is easily soluble in the electrolyte, the dissolved active material will be unevenly deposited on...
