Problems solved by technology

Therefore, current concentration occurs inside the active material layer and a passive state occurs, thereby reducing Coulombic efficiency and deteriorating battery characteristics.
In addition, if the electrode density of the active material layer is increased, the voids inside the active material layer will decrease, and the conduction path of ions required for the battery reaction will decrease. Therefore, the ion conduction resistance will increase and the battery characteristics will decrease.

Embodiment approach 1

[0024] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0025] figure 1 It is a diagram showing a schematic structure of the metal negative electrode (negative electrode for battery) 10 of the first embodiment. figure 1 (a) is a three-dimensional view, figure 1 (b) is a cross-sectional view. Metal negative electrode 10 such as figure 1 As shown, active material layers 12 are formed on both sides of the current collector 11. The current collector 11 is arranged at the center of the thickness direction of the active material layer 12 so that when the metal negative electrode 10 is used in a battery, the electrode distance between the metal negative electrode 10 and the positive electrode of the battery is kept constant.

[0026] The current collector 11 transfers electrons between the active material layer 12 and the battery terminal (not shown). Examples of the material of the current collector 11 include copper alloys ...

Embodiment approach 2

[0052] In the second embodiment, a more specific method will be described with respect to the elution step described in the first embodiment. In the method of the second embodiment, the battery is assembled using the metal negative electrode 10 before the elution step in which the polarization step has been completed, and an electrolyte is injected into the assembled battery. In this case, the auxiliary agent 122 is eluted in the electrolyte solution injected into the battery, thereby forming a space 125 in the active material layer 12 of the metal negative electrode 10. In addition, when the method of the second embodiment is used, in the completed battery, the components of the eluted auxiliary agent 122 are contained in the electrolyte.

[0053] Furthermore, a battery using the metal negative electrode 10 of the present invention can be used as a metal-air battery, and examples thereof include zinc-air batteries, magnesium-air batteries, aluminum-air batteries, and iron-air ba...

Embodiment approach 3

[0059] In the third embodiment, a more specific method will be described with respect to the elution step described in the first embodiment. In the method of the third embodiment, a battery is assembled using the metal negative electrode 10 after the elution step in which the elution step has been completed, and an electrolyte is injected into the assembled battery. When the method of the third embodiment is used, the components of the eluted auxiliary agent 122 are not included in the electrolyte in the completed battery.

[0060] In the method of the third embodiment, the material of the auxiliary agent 122 and the type of the solution used in the elution step can be made the same as those of the second embodiment. That is, the solution can be the same alkaline aqueous solution as the electrolytic solution, and the auxiliary agent 122 can be a material that elutes in the alkaline aqueous solution. However, in the third embodiment, the types of materials and solutions of the au...

Abstract

According to the present invention, an active material layer (12) of a metal negative electrode (10) comprises: active material particles (121) which contain a negative electrode active material; andan assistant agent (122) which is in the form of particles that have a larger average particle diameter than the active material particles (121), or empty spaces (125) which are formed in places wherethe assistant agent (122) was present by immersing the metal negative electrode (10) in an aqueous alkaline solution, thereby having the assistant agent (122) dissolved into the solution.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a battery negative electrode, a battery, and a method for manufacturing a battery using metals such as zinc as the negative electrode active material. Background technique [0002] The negative electrode for a battery used in a zinc-air battery or the like is composed of an active material layer and a current collector, and the current collector is provided in the center of the active material layer. In addition, the active material layer is configured as a mixture of a negative electrode active material, a conductive auxiliary agent, and a binder as materials, and voids are formed between the materials. When working as a battery, the void formed in the active material layer is filled with the electrolyte, and the void becomes the OH required for the battery reaction - The conduction path of ions. [0003] In order to increase the capacity of the zinc-air battery, the thickness of the active material layer needs to be increas...
