Abstract

The invention discloses an air cathode of an aluminum air battery, and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method comprises the following steps: firstly, carrying out ultrasonic dispersion, hydrothermal treatment, centrifugal washing and drying on GO, KMnO4 and MnSO4 to obtain an alpha-MnO2@MnO(OH)@GO composite material in which alpha-MnO2 nanorods, MnO(OH) nanorods and flaky GO are uniformly distributed, then pressing a slurry obtained by mixing the alpha-MnO2@MnO (OH)@GO composite material, conductive carbon black and polytetrafluoroethylene emulsion (with the solid content of 58-63%) according to a mass ratio of (1-1.5): (2-3): (1-2) as a catalyst layer, a foamed nickel current collection layer coated with the catalyst layer slurry and a waterproof breathable layer together to obtain the air cathode. According to the air cathode, the discharge voltage and the discharge stability of the aluminum air battery can be remarkably improved, the performance of the air cathode is close to that of a commercial 20% Pt / C air cathode, and the air cathode has a wide commercial application prospect.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of air cathode preparation of aluminum-air batteries, and specifically relates to a novel α-MnO 2 @MnO(OH)@GO composite material as electrocatalyst for aluminum-air battery air cathode and its preparation method. Background technique [0002] With the intensification of environmental pollution and energy consumption, the demand for clean and renewable energy is becoming more and more urgent. Among various metal-air batteries, aluminum-air batteries have attracted extensive attention due to their low cost, light weight, non-toxicity, non-pollution, high safety, and recyclability, and are a promising energy storage device. However, aluminum-air batteries are still in their infancy, and there are still many problems to be solved, such as the slow oxygen reduction reaction rate of the air electrode, the high self-corrosion rate of aluminum, the Al 2 o 3 and Al(OH) 3 The deposits hinder the performance of the battery. ...
