Abstract

The invention discloses a magnesium-air battery cathode material and a preparation method thereof, and relates to the technical field of magnesium-air batteries. The magnesium-air battery cathode material comprises the following components in percentages by weight: 1.0-5.0wt% of Zn, 0.1-2.0wt% of Ca and the balance of magnesium. The preparation method comprises the following steps: (1) weighing pure magnesium, pure zinc and Mg-Ca intermediate alloy according to 1.0-5.0wt% of Zn, 0.1-2.0wt% of Ca and the balance of magnesium, and removing oxide skin on the surface; (2) placing an alloy treatedin the step (1) in a crucible to be preheated, and sequentially placing the alloy in the crucible to be melted; and (3) casting molten liquid in the step (2) in a metal mold at a proper temperature for cooling. According to the preparation method, a hydrogen evolution reaction of a metal cathode in an NaCl neutral solution is relieved, the discharging process is optimized at the forming position of the second phase of dotted Ca2Mg6Zn3, the stacking thickness of a discharging product on the surface of the cathode is reduced, and product falling is accelerated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of magnesium-air batteries, in particular to an anode material for a magnesium-air battery with high anode efficiency and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] In response to the depletion of fossil fuels and the increasingly serious pollution problems, safe and pollution-free magnesium-air batteries, as a new type of energy conversion and storage device, have attracted widespread attention. [0003] Magnesium alloy is not only the lightest structural material among metals, but also non-toxic, non-polluting and abundant in reserves. It is well known that the magnesium anode has a standard electrode potential (-2.37V vs. SHE), a high theoretical electrochemical equivalent (2200mAh g -1 ), higher energy density (6.800Wh·kg -1 ). After the battery is formed, the anode reactant is magnesium alloy, and the cathode reactant is oxygen in the air, which greatly saves the space inside the bat...
