Problems solved by technology

However, the currently used non-dry charging alkaline zinc-air batteries use zinc paste as the negative electrode, and sufficient electrolyte solution has been added during the manufacturing and assembly process, which restricts its large-scale application in the field of portable mobile device power supplies. :
Due to the instability of the zinc electrode in the electrolyte, the battery self-discharges and hydrogen evolution corrosion occurs. Long-term storage will affect the electrical performance of the battery. It is also easy to cause problems such as leakage of the electrolyte solution of the battery
[0005] 2. There is a problem of carbonation of the electrolyte solution
The precipitation of carbonate on the air diffusion electrode will reduce the air diffusion performance and electrocatalytic performance of the air diffusion electrode, and will also affect the electrical performance of the battery
[0006] 3. There is a problem of water loss or moisture absorption
When the ambient humidity is high, the electrolyte solution is easy to absorb moisture, so that the electrolyte solution is diluted, resulting in a decrease in the alkalinity of the electrolyte solution, and at the same time causing a decrease in the conductivity of the electrolyte solution and prompting the battery to leak, etc.; when the ambient humidity When it is small, the solvent of the electrolyte solution will diffuse and evaporate to the external environment, which will cause the concentration of the electrolyte solution to become thicker, and even dry up to cause the battery to fail
[0007] 4. There are problems of alkali climbing and leakage
Because the alkaline electrolyte solution will permeate along the negatively charged metal surface, the battery will experience alkali climbing, which will affect the performance and quality of the battery

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of zinc-air batteries, in particular to a dry-charged zinc-air battery. Background technique [0002] Zinc-air battery is a high-tech product in the current field of chemical power sources, known as "green energy for the 21st century". It is a chemical power source that uses oxygen in the air as the positive electrode active material, metal zinc as the negative electrode active material (usually zinc paste), and generates electrical energy through a chemical reaction under the catalysis of an electrocatalyst. Since air does not account for the volume and weight of the battery, the battery system theoretically has a high specific energy. Its theoretical specific energy is as high as 1350mWh / g, and its actual specific energy is over 300mWh / g. Zinc-air batteries are widely used in military radio transmitters, electric vehicles and other fields because of their cheap and easy-to-obtain ...
