Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of batteries, in particular to a manganese dioxide battery based on the principle of electrochemical metallurgy. Background technique [0002] Electrochemical metallurgical batteries, that is, batteries whose positive and negative electrodes are based on electrochemical metallurgical reactions (metal dissolution / deposition reactions). Electrochemical metallurgical batteries originated from Daniel batteries, in which the zinc negative electrode and copper positive electrode continuously undergo zinc dissolution and copper deposition reactions on the electrodes during battery discharge. During the charging process of the battery, zinc deposition and copper dissolution reactions occur. The electrode of the denier cell based on the electrochemical metallurgical reaction has good cyclability. In recent years, manganese dioxide has been found to undergo reversible electrochemical metallurgical reactions in acidi...

Problems solved by technology

However, zinc cannot exist stably in acidic solution, which makes the electrochemical metallurgical zinc-manganese battery must use ion exchange membrane to introduce acidic electrolyte and alkaline electrolyte into the battery at the same time, providing the manganese dioxide electrode and zinc electrode respectively. good reaction conditions

Although the resulting electrochemical metallurgical zinc-manganese battery exhibits high discharge voltage and good cycle characteristics, the use of ion-exchange membranes increases the cost of the battery, and the use of two electrolytes also limits the energy density of the battery.
