Problems solved by technology

[0005] At present, although there are a variety of preparation methods for ZIF-8, there are few preparation methods for the preparation of copper-supported hollow hexagonal ZIF-8 materials, and the ORR activity of ZIF-8 is not high and it is difficult to be applied to zinc-air batteries. , while the hollow ZIF-8 can generate more active sites, increase the mass transfer capacity, thereby enhancing the ORR catalytic activity, and Cu as the active site can promote the ORR activity more strongly
In addition, the morphology of the ZIF-8 material prepared by the existing technology is relatively simple, and the hollow ZIF-8 material with hexagonal morphology has not been reported.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of zinc-air battery materials, in particular to a method for preparing a copper-doped hollow hexagonal ZIF-8 material for zinc-air batteries. Background technique [0002] Zinc-air batteries have attracted increasing attention due to their advantages such as abundant zinc storage, high theoretical energy density (1086Wh / Kg), high safety, and low price. Zinc-air batteries mainly include: negative electrode, positive electrode and electrolyte. Among them, the slow kinetic reaction rate of the positive electrode is the main factor hindering the performance of Zn-air batteries. Therefore, the development of cathode catalysts with excellent ORR activity is of great significance for the development of Zn-air batteries. As a traditional ORR catalyst, Pt / C has the disadvantages of high price, easy poisoning and low storage capacity. Therefore, many scholars have been studying non-noble metal materials to replace ...
