Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of zinc-air battery technology, and particularly relates to a high-entropy alloy nanoparticle-supported carbon fiber cathode catalyst, its preparation method, and its application in all-solid-state high and low temperature zinc-air batteries. Background Technology
[0002] With the ever-increasing demand for traditional fossil fuels, humanity urgently needs to develop new energy sources to replace them. Zinc-air batteries possess a high theoretical energy density (1086 Wh / kg). -1 Zinc-air batteries, characterized by low cost, high safety, and eco-friendliness, are among the most promising new chemical power sources. Due to the diversity of human activities, such as daily life in cold and hot regions, the ability of zinc-air batteries to survive and operate at extreme temperatures (-50 to 60°C) is highly desirable. The fundamental reactions at the cathode of a zinc-air battery under alkaline conditions include the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) during discharge and the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) during charging. The high potential and low activity of existing oxygen catalysts result in slow ORR / OER reaction kinetics, limiting the overall efficiency of zinc-air batteries. Therefore, finding non-precious metal bifunctional electrocatalysts with high kinetics and low cost is crucial for the practical application of zinc-air batteries.
[0003] High entropy alloys (HEAs) are typically solid solution alloy phases composed of five or more near-equimolar principal elements with nearly equal atomic ratios. The different atomic sizes of each component can lead to lattice distortion and provide a wide variety of multi-element active sites on a single surface. Furthermore, the presence of multiple components promotes the formation of the solid solution phase and inhibits dislocation movement. These properties endow HEAs with unique characteristics such as corrosion resistance, strong fracture toughness, and high mechanical strength. The goal of HEAs is to adapt these characteristics by utilizing virtually unlimited combinations of elements to achieve any desired response. In catalysis, the adsorption behavior of reactants, intermediates, and products on the catalyst surface plays a crucial role. Compared to traditional alloy electrocatalysts, HEAs possess unique multi-element arrangements, exhibiting a variety of exotic structure-activity relationships, allowing for the tuning of catalytic performance under different limiting conditions.
