Description

Zinc-air battery electrocatalyst and preparation method thereof
1. Field of the invention
The invention relates to a metal composite oxide with a perovskite crystalline structure used as an electrocatalyst of a zinc-air battery and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the field of chemical power sources.
2. Background of the invention
The zinc-air battery is a battery which takes oxygen in the air as a positive active material and metal zinc as a negative active material, and the oxygen and the zinc react to release electric energy under the catalytic action of an electrocatalyst. Because the air does not occupy the volume and the weight of the battery, the battery has very high specific energy (3-4 times of that of an alkaline zinc-manganese battery with the same type and 7-8 times of that of a zinc-manganese dry battery with the same type), can utilize zinc resources to the maximum extent, and meets the requirements of sustainable development strategies in China. The zinc-air battery has the characteristics of large capacity, high specific energy, stable discharge performance, cheap and easily-obtained raw materials, no environmental pollution in the production and use processes and the like, and is called as a green power supply facing the 21 st century. As an advanced power supply product, the zinc-air battery has high cost performance, is expected to become the best matching power supply for rapidly developing portable electronic and electrical equipment, and has wide market prospect.
However, the lack of suitable air diffusion electrode electrocatalysts has led to a decrease in the discharge current density of zinc-air batteries, which has greatly limited the application area and the pace of practical use of zinc-air batteries. The materials that have been studied as electrocatalysts for air diffusion electrodes of zinc-air batteries are mainly noble metals Pt (see us 4379772 for details), ag, metal chelates, manganese oxides (see us 6368365 for details), spinel type metal oxides (see chinese 01107488.4 for details), etc. However, the above-mentioned background art has the following problems:
1. the noble metals Pt and Ag as the air diffusion electrode electrocatalyst have high electrocatalytic activity, but the noble metals have fewer resources, are expensive, have lower cost performance, and are not suitable for large-scale industrial production.
2. Manganese oxide (mainly manganese dioxide) is low in price, abundant and easily available, and is the only electrocatalyst used by button zinc-air batteries which are practically produced in batches at present. However, the catalytic activity is too low, the discharge current density per unit area is too small, and the requirement of working current of common high-power electronic appliances cannot be met.
3. Although the spinel-type crystalline structure metal oxide electrocatalyst has high initial catalytic activity, the chemical stability is not good, and the polarization degree of discharge is obviously increased after the obtained battery is stored for a period of time, so that the service life is short.
4. Although the metal chelate has higher electrocatalytic activity, the preparation process is more complex, and the structure and the quality are difficult to control, so the metal chelate is difficult to be applied to the large-scale industrial production of the zinc-air battery.
5. All other electrocatalysts of the above background art, except for the noble metal Pt, have a relatively low catalytic activity for the oxygen evolution reaction and the bifunctional air diffusion electrodes made with them as bifunctional electrocatalysts have a relatively short lifetime.
