Problems solved by technology

Depletion of carbon electrodes leads to a drop in battery energy density
In addition, during the charging process of lithium-oxygen batteries, the generated lithium carbonate has a high decomposition potential and is difficult to completely decompose.
Accumulated lithium carbonate clogs the electrodes and eventually causes the battery to fail
Therefore, the use of carbon materials as oxygen electrodes will bring three problems to lithium-oxygen batteries: low discharge capacity, high charge-discharge overpotential (low energy conversion efficiency) and poor cycle performance (short life)
These methods have some drawbacks and limitations: the synthesis conditions are harsh and difficult to control, the powder yield is low and the cost is high
These methods are suitable for laboratory research, not suitable for industrial production

Abstract

A preparation method and application of a battery catalyst. The preparation method includes the following steps: preparing a mixed solution containing precious metals and magnesium ions; adding a complexing agent to the mixed solution to prepare a complex solution; evaporating the volatile components in the complex solution Sexual solvent is used to obtain a gel containing precious metals and magnesium ions; the gel is heat-treated to obtain a foam precursor, and the secondary heat treatment is performed to obtain precious metal / magnesium oxide composite powder or precious metal oxide / magnesium oxide composite powder; the precious metal / magnesium oxide composite powder is obtained. The composite powder or precious metal oxide / magnesium oxide composite powder is added to the etching acid solution and stirred to obtain a turbid liquid; the precious metal powder or precious metal oxide powder is extracted from the turbid liquid. The ultrafine monodisperse nanopowder prepared by the invention has controllable particle size, uniform particle size and high catalytic activity, and is an ideal lithium-oxygen battery catalyst material.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a secondary battery, in particular to a preparation method and application of a noble metal or noble metal oxide catalyst for the secondary battery. Background technique [0002] The lithium-oxygen battery has an ultra-high energy density, its theoretical energy density is equivalent to that of gasoline, and its actual energy density can also be several times that of the existing lithium-ion battery. It is expected to be used as an electric vehicle energy storage battery, and can also be used as a stationary storage power station battery. A lithium-oxygen battery cell usually consists of three parts: a lithium negative electrode, an electrolyte, and an oxygen electrode positive electrode. Carbon materials are currently the main catalyst materials for oxygen electrodes because of their low cost, high electronic conductivity and high catalytic activity. Unfortunately, carbon materials and the target product lithium peroxide (Li...
