Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, magnesium-air batteries still face many problems, mainly including low anode efficiency and slow oxygen reduction reaction kinetics at the cathode.
Among them, when the magnesium used as the anode is polarized to a value higher than its self-corrosion potential during the discharge process, it is very easy to self-corrode in the electrolyte, resulting in self-discharge and discharge loss, reducing the efficiency of the anode and reducing the service life of the battery.

Abstract

The invention discloses a magnesium-air battery anode material and a preparation method thereof, and relates to the technical field of magnesium-air batteries. The magnesium-air battery anode materialis prepared from the components: 2.0-3.0 wt.% of Al, 0.8-1.1 wt.% of Zn, 1.0- 7.5 wt.% of Gd and the balance of magnesium.

Hydrogen evolution reaction of a metal anode in a NaCl neutral solution is inhibited, the formation of a needle-like Al2Gd second phase optimizes the discharge process, the falling of discharge products on the surface of an electrode is accelerated, the peeling of anode metal particles is reduced, the discharge reaction area is increased, and the specificcapacity and power density are improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of magnesium-air batteries, in particular to an anode material for a magnesium-air battery with high anode efficiency and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] In response to the increasing demand for energy supply and the increasingly serious environmental pollution problems, safe and pollution-free magnesium-air batteries, as a new type of energy storage and conversion device, have attracted widespread attention. [0003] Magnesium alloy is not only the lightest metal structure material, but also non-toxic, non-polluting, abundant in reserves and low in price. Magnesium has a low standard electrode potential (-2.37V vs. SHE), a high theoretical specific capacity (2200m Ah g -1 ), higher energy density (6800mW h g -1 ) and low density (1.74g·cm -3 ) and other characteristics, it is an extremely ideal anode material for air batteries. When the battery is assembled, the anode reactan...
