Problems solved by technology

[0004] At present, compared with zinc anode materials, aluminum anode materials for air batteries have the primary problem of self-corrosion in alkaline solution, which greatly reduces the utilization rate of anodes and hinders the commercial application of aluminum-air batteries.
However, when the above-mentioned aluminum alloy materials are used as anodes of aluminum-air batteries, the self-corrosion rate in alkaline solutions is still relatively high, and the open circuit potential is insufficient, which cannot meet the requirements of high current density discharge of alkaline aluminum-air batteries.
