Problems solved by technology

[0004] But at present, for aluminum alloy materials, it is still easy to form a dense oxide film on the surface, which hinders the contact between aluminum and electrolyte in the electrode reaction, and passivation occurs, which makes the electrode potential drop rapidly, the electrochemical activity is reduced, and the discharge Reduced voltage and energy density
Chinese patent CN111740094A discloses an aluminum alloy in which the rare earth element Ce is combined with the elements In, Sn and Mg to refine the grains of the alloy, weaken the polarization, and improve the discharge voltage and energy density of the aluminum anode plate, but the price of the rare earth element Expensive and high production costs limit the popularization and use of aluminum-air batteries

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of aluminum air batteries, and particularly relates to a rare earth-free aluminum alloy and a preparation method and application thereof. The rare earth-free aluminum alloy comprises the following element components in percentage by mass: 0.2 to 1.0 percent of Bi, 0.05 to 0.2 percent of In, 0.2 to 1.0 percent of Mg, and the balance Al. According to the rare earth-free aluminum alloy and the preparation method and application thereof, Bi, In and Mg are added into an aluminum matrix, a compact oxide film is destroyed through hole action and eutectic melt, the resistance of the oxide film is reduced, and when the alloy is applied to an anode of an aluminum air battery, the electrochemical activity of the anode is improved, so that the discharge voltage and energy density of the aluminum air battery are further improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of aluminum-air batteries, and in particular relates to a rare earth-free aluminum alloy and its preparation method and application. Background technique [0002] As a new type of energy battery, aluminum-air batteries are widely used in transportation, industrial production, and marine emergency equipment because of their advantages such as light weight, zero pollution, high specific energy, low cost, and good safety. [0003] Traditional aluminum-air batteries use pure aluminum as the anode material, but only when the purity of aluminum reaches more than 99.999% can it be used as an anode for aluminum-air batteries, which has high requirements for the electrolytic preparation process of aluminum and increases the cost of the battery, so , usually requires alloying treatment. By adopting the alloying treatment, while reducing the cost, it can also meet the requirements for use as an aluminum-air battery an...
