Problems solved by technology

Since such cathode materials (such as MnO 2 , NiO and Co 3 o 4 ) is based on the conversion reaction mechanism and can achieve high discharge capacity, but its non-rechargeability severely limits its application
At the same time, in aqueous zinc-based secondary batteries, most of the reported positive electrode materials (vanadate and polymer) are mainly based on the embedded reaction mechanism, but they generally have low reversible capacity (-1 ) problem, resulting in low energy density of the battery (-1 )

Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of aqueous solution zinc-based batteries, and more specifically relates to an aqueous solution-based zinc-based battery cathode material, its preparation and application. The active material is elemental iodine, chalcogenide elements or compounds formed by chalcogenide elements; the conductive material is conductive and has a porous structure; wherein the conductive material not only plays a conductive role, but also utilizes its porous structure It can absorb or coat the active material, and prevent the active material from being dissolved and invalidated. It is used as a positive electrode material for zinc-based batteries based on aqueous solutions, especially as a positive electrode material for rechargeable aqueous zinc-based batteries, with high reversible capacity, energy density and cycle stability.

Description

Technical field[0001]The present invention belongs to the field of aqueous zinc-based batteries, and more specifically, relates to an aqueous solution-based zinc-based battery cathode material, preparation and application thereof.Background technique[0002]Aqueous zinc-based batteries are a type of aqueous batteries that use metallic zinc as the negative electrode material. They have attracted much attention due to their low cost, safety, reliability, cleanliness and environmental protection.[0003]According to the rechargeability of the battery, aqueous zinc-based batteries can be divided into aqueous zinc-based primary batteries and aqueous zinc-based secondary batteries. In aqueous zinc-based primary batteries (such as remote control dry batteries), the cathode material is mainly transition metal oxides (such as MnO2, NiO and Co3O4). Because this type of cathode material (such as MnO2, NiO and Co3O4) Is based on the conversion reaction mechanism, which can achieve higher discharge ...
