Description

Alkaline zinc battery composite additive and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to a manufacturing technology of an alkaline zinc battery, in particular to a composite additive of the alkaline zinc battery, a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
China is a large country of production and consumption of alkaline zinc batteries including alkaline zinc-manganese batteries, zinc-silver batteries, zinc-nickel batteries and zinc-air batteries. However, due to the high activity of zinc, zinc is easily corroded in alkaline solution, and the corrosion of Zn is the result of the conjugate reaction of Zn anode dissolution and hydrogen cathode precipitation. The conjugation reaction is as follows:
anodic oxidation reaction:
Zn+2OH - ~2e - →ZnO+H 2 O
ZnO+OH - →HZnO 2 - or ZnO 2 2- +H 2 O
Cathode reduction reaction:
2H 2 O+2e - →2OH - +H 2
the total reaction is as follows:
Zn+H 2 O→H 2 ↑+ZnO
the self-discharge of negative zinc powder is the main reason of the self-discharge of alkaline zinc battery. The self-discharge of the battery easily causes the problems of battery capacity reduction, service life shortening, battery leakage and even battery failure.
In order to solve the problem of self-discharge of the battery and simultaneously not affect the activation and dissolution of zinc during the discharge of the battery, people have made extensive research for a long time on inhibiting the self-discharge of negative zinc powder: for example, chinese patent (or patent application) with patent number ZL200410026985.1 and patent application number 200610037178.9 adopts the technical means that a certain amount of metal and compound thereof with higher hydrogen overpotential, such as indium, indium hydroxide, indium oxide, bismuth, tin and the like, are added into zinc paste; the technical means adopted by Chinese invention patents with patent numbers of ZL200410026835.0, ZL200620057487.8, ZL200420045131.3, ZL200410026834.6 and the like is to plate metal or alloy with higher hydrogen overpotential, such as indium, tin cobalt, copper tin zinc alloy and the like, on the negative electrode cover; also, the technology is a combination of the two, such as chinese inventions (or patent applications) with patent numbers ZL01234722.1, ZL200620063306.2, patent application numbers 200610035286.2, 200610037177.4, etc.; the patent number is 200410019885.6, and calcium zincate, transition metal and rare earth metal oxide are added into the secondary alkaline zinc cathode.
Indium or zinc-indium alloy is plated on the current collector of the negative electrode, and mercury, lead, cadmium, indium and other rare metals which pollute the environment or are precious are added into zinc paste, so that the production process of the battery is relatively complex, the cost is relatively high, and the battery obviously does not accord with the environmental protection, production and consumption concepts of the modern society. Although mercury substitute additives or mercury-free technologies are developed, the cost is high, the corrosion inhibition effect is greatly influenced by the working environment of the battery, or the process is complex, which is extremely unfavorable for the sustainable development of the alkaline zinc battery.
