続いて、電解質9を、以下の方法で調製した。水酸化カリウムと純水とを、重量比にて、水酸化カリウム:純水=3:7となるように混合し、これらの合計重量100mgに対して、ゲル化剤として1mgのポリ(アクリル酸ナトリウム)を加え、電解質9としてのゲル化された水溶液を得た。この水溶液をセパレータ6に含浸させた。
正極触媒層は、導電材としてアセチレンブラックと、酸素の還元を促進する触媒としての電解MnO2と、結着剤としてのPTFE粉末とにより構成した。重量比として、アセチレンブラック:電解MnO2:PTFE=10:10:1とし、縦40mm×横30mm、厚み0.3mmの正極触媒層4を成形した。また、ステンレスメッシュ製の放電用の正極集電体3(縦40mm×横30mm×厚み0.1mm)の端部に外部接続用のニッケルリボン端子5(縦50mm×横3mm×厚み0.20mm)を接続した。そして、放電用の正極集電体3に正極触媒層4を当接し、これらを圧着し、放電用正極13を得た。
充電用正極72としては、ニッケルメッシュを用い、充電用正極集電体72の端部に、外部接続用のニッケルリボン端子73(縦50mm×横3mm×厚み0.20mm)を接続した。
上記放電用正極13と、ニッケルリボン端子73を有する上記充電用正極72とを、セパレータ71を介して図3の(a)の順序で積層した。
酸素拡散膜2としては、連続する空孔を有するポリプロピレン多孔膜(日本バイリーン社製、縦60mm×横30mm×厚み0.1mm、水との接触角100°)を用い、放電用正極3上に積層した。
また、充放電用のニッケルリボン端子5、11および73を容器10の外部に引き出した。
(充放電試験)
上述のようにして作製した空気二次電池を、充放電試験機(東洋システム社製、製品名TOSCAT-3000U)にニッケルリボン端子11、73で接続し、30mAでCC(コンスタントカレント:定電流)充電を5時間行った。次にニッケルリボン端子5、11に接続を変えて、10mAでCC放電を行い、終止電圧0.5Vでカットオフした。その結果、120mAhの放電容量を確認した。
負極活物質7を水素吸蔵合金から亜鉛に変更した以外は、実施例1と同様に空気二次電池を作製した。この電池の電池反応式は上記式(1)~(4)に示す通りである。
このようにして作製した空気二次電池を、30mAでCC充電を20時間行い、10mAでCC放電を行い、終止電圧0.5Vでカットオフした。
充放電試験機に接続する端子については、実施例2以降の充放電においても、実施例1と同様に充電と放電とで接続する端子を変えた。
その結果、485mAhの放電容量を確認した。
実施例1で用いたものと同じ酸素拡散膜2に、撥水スプレー(ダイキン株式会社製、商品名:ノヴァテック)を吹き付け、超撥水性を有する酸素拡散膜2を作製した。当該酸素拡散膜2の水に対する接触角は151°であった。超撥水性を有する酸素拡散膜2を用いた以外は実施例1と同様にして、空気二次電池を作製した。
このようにして作製した空気二次電池を、30mAでCC充電を5時間行い、10mAでCC放電を行い、終止電圧0.5Vでカットオフした。
その結果、122mAhの放電容量を確認した。
負極活物質7の水素吸蔵合金を(縦40×横30mm×厚み1.2mm)に変更した以外は、実施例1と同様に空気二次電池を作製した。
このようにして作製した空気二次電池を、30mAでCC充電を48時間行い、10mAでCC放電を行い、終止電圧0.5Vでカットオフした。
その結果、1150mAhの放電容量を確認した。
図9に示すように、酸素拡散膜2の一部が、大気と接していない以外は、実施例1と同様に空気二次電池を作製した。その結果、充電は可能であったが、放電は1mAhだけであった。
実施例1、3の電池について、サイクル試験を行った。
サイクル試験の設定電流は以下のようにした。30mAでCC充電を5時間行い、10mAでCC放電を行い、終止電圧0.5Vでカットオフした。この条件を100回繰り返した。
その結果、100サイクル後の容量維持率は、1サイクル目を100%とした時、実施例1の電池が60%、実施例3の電池が75%であった。
(空気電池スタックの作製)
実施例1の発電体20’(空気電池1)を4つ積層し、ポリプロピレン製の容器10に入れ、図5に示すような空気電池スタックを作製した。この時、酸素拡散膜2の周縁部2cが、容器10の開口15から外部に突出するように配置した。突出部は2箇所あり、容器外方向への突出長さを0.5cmとした。
また、充放電用のニッケルリボン端子5、11および73の各4本、合計12本を容器10の外部に引き出した。
上述のようにして作製した空気二次電池を、120mAでCC充電を5時間行い、40mAでCC放電を行い、終止電圧0.5Vでカットオフした。その結果、485mAhの放電容量を確認した。
このように本発明の構成にすることで、空気電池のスタック化が容易にできることが確認できた。
