Background
The metal-air battery has the characteristics of high energy density, small volume, long discharge life, simple structure and the like, and is an ideal electrochemical energy storage and conversion device. Among them, the magnesium air battery is a typical metal air battery, and has the advantages of high energy density, high theoretical voltage, large theoretical specific capacity, low cost, light weight, environmental friendliness, abundant reserves and the like. In addition, abundant raw materials, low cost, high safety and environmental protection are also inherent advantages of the magnesium air battery, and the magnesium air battery has great application potential.
The magnesium air battery consists of an air cathode, electrolyte and a magnesium anode, has simple structure and is beneficial to realizing industrial application. In theory, the magnesium air battery is a very ideal power source, but the limiting factors of slow reaction kinetics progress, higher overpotential, low coulombic efficiency caused by self-corrosion of the anode and the like still exist. The oxygen reduction potential is generally low, the reduction reaction is carried out in multiple steps, which can lead to slow cathode oxygen reduction reaction (Oxygen Reduction Reaction, ORR) in the magnesium air battery, cause the problems of higher overpotential, low coulombic efficiency and the like, restrict the performance of the whole battery, and become an important influencing factor for the development and the realization of commercial production of high energy density. The performance of the cathode oxygen reduction catalyst affects the performance of the whole air battery system to a great extent, including energy efficiency, cycle life, cost and the like, and directly determines the energy conversion efficiency of the air battery. Therefore, the search for high performance, efficient, durable, low cost, stable ORR catalysts is critical to the development of metal-air batteries. However, most of the ORR catalysts with better performance are noble metal catalysts such as Pt, and the like, so that the materials have small reserves and high cost, and are difficult to meet the requirements of mass industrial production and industrial application thereof. Therefore, the ORR catalyst with low price, abundant resources and high efficiency is developed to replace noble metal catalysts such as Pt and the like, and has important significance for the research and development and application of the magnesium air battery.
