Problems solved by technology

[0005] (2) The positive electrode of micron-sized silver powder is thick and the specific surface area is small, so it is difficult to improve the specific energy and rapid discharge performance of the battery
[0006] (3) The volume resistance of the positive electrode of micron-sized silver powder is large, and the battery is prone to overheating during charging and discharging, especially during rapid discharging
Micron-sized silver powder is molded and sintered at a temperature lower than the melting point. The physical contact between silver powders is still dominant, the contact resistance is large, and the contact surface between the granular silver powder and the current collector is small, and a good conductive network cannot be formed. The surface layer of the silver powder after charging is Silver oxide with poorer conductivity further increases the volume resistance of the electrode, and the battery is prone to overheating during rapid discharge, which affects its performance
[0007] (4) Micron-sized silver powder electrodes have very low strength and poor structural integrity
Silver powder is mainly in physical contact, and there is a phenomenon of powder falling, which not only increases the difficulty of battery assembly, but also makes it difficult to guarantee the stability of battery performance.

preparation example Construction

[0038] A method for preparing a positive electrode of silver nanowires for a zinc-silver battery of the present invention comprises the following steps: laying pretreated silver nanowires on the upper and lower sides of the current collector, and obtaining silver nanowires after compression molding and vacuum sintering positive electrode.

[0039] The invention adopts the silver nanowire to prepare the silver nanowire positive electrode, and the extremely small diameter of the silver nanowire is beneficial to improving the specific energy of the battery. When charging, the silver nanowires with extremely small diameters are converted into silver oxide, and their thickness is much smaller than that generated by micron-sized silver powder, so the O -2 The hindrance of ion and electron migration is limited, the oxidation reaction of the silver nanowire core is sufficient, and the conversion rate of silver oxide is improved. Vacuum sintering realizes the welding between silver nan...
