Popis: | A rechargeable zinc-air battery shows great promise because of its high energy density, low cost, greater safety, and its environment-friendly properties. However, rechargeable zinc-air battery development has been hindered by the lack of a satisfactory bi-functional electrode. In this research, we report on a solution which uses electro-deposition to dope nickel into manganese on the stainless-steel mesh. The result shows the hydroxyl group on the prepared samples improving its oxygen reduction reaction and oxygen evolution reaction performance, as well as boosting the ion diffusion rate and stabilizing the zinc-air battery charge-discharge performance (overall potential gap dropped from 0.84 V to 0.82 V after 1000 cycles). This study contributes to our understanding of a new method for the improvement of bi-functional electrodes. |
