A new battery after lithium battery- Lithium-air battery come into practice at the first time
While still with an organic solvent, but otherwise is a new composition, to improve battery energy density, the lithium – air-batteries. In this experiment, the Japanese Institute of Industrial Science and Technology and Japan Society for the Promotion has a new structure of lithium – air developed batteries.
Lithium – the concept of air batteries have long brought up. Due to the positive use of oxygen in the air as the active material, so that the infinite capacity in the theory of positive density can increase the capacity. In addition, the use of lithium metal anode, theoretical capacity than lithium-ion battery to improve name a few.
However, lithium – air battery, if not one of popularity. The reason is, there is a fatal flaw, namely, the solid reaction products, lithium oxide (Li2O) accumulate in the anode, so that the electrolyte were cut off contact with the air to meet what is not anymore.
Made in Japan & Research Institute, divided into two types of electrolyte solution to this issue. In the negative (lithium) side of the use of organic electrolyte in the cathode (air) side of the use of aqueous electrolytes. Between the two electrolyte lithium-ion only through the solid electrolyte membrane set to share them. This will prevent the electrolyte mixture, and promote responsive battery.
Use of lithium metal anode. Cathode is used in combination with the electrolyte containing organic lithium salt electrolyte. While we can not let you down the organic solvent, but it limits the use. Water-based alkaline electrolyte cathode with water-soluble gel, and after the micro-based catalyst for the formation of oxides of carbon and low-cost connection from the positive.
Generated in the cell, by the discharge reaction is not a solid Li 2 O, but readily dissolved in the aqueous electrolyte in the LiOH (lithium hydroxide). Therefore, the oxidation of lithium accumulation in the air after the electrode will not cause the work was stopped. In addition, water and nitrogen through the solid electrolyte and not next door, so there is no place with a lithium metal anode reaction risk. Moreover, competent when the configuration-specific positive charge, but also to prevent conductive load induced corrosion and deterioration of the air electrode.
To 0.1A / g discharge rate of discharge, the discharge of about 9000mAh / g. The former Lithium – air battery discharge capacity of only 700 ~ 3000 mAh / g, can be said to achieve a substantial increase in capacity.
In addition, the use of an aqueous solution is to replace the water-gel in the air are 0.1A / g discharge rate of the continuous discharge for 20 days, the discharge of approximately 50,000 mAh / g, a figure higher than the original. Since the lithium metal battery capacity had as lithium-ion battery a high number, so that the value of more than tens of lithium-ion batteries high range. High-performance solution, but in the use of even facilitate better on the gel. In the future, need to consider which of these two, one for development.
This technology could also consider using an easy-to-use batteries of different ways. If no battery charging, but replace the cathode through the electrolyte aqueous base to card boxes, etc. to the lithium metal anodes enrichment, cars will not need to charge waiting time, immediately. Through the recycling of used water-based electrolyte, the electrical means for regeneration of lithium, but also a multiple use of lithium. One can say, is a new type of lithium-powered fuel cells.dell inspiron 1100 battery,dell inspiron 1150 battery,dell inspiron 1300 battery,dell inspiron 1420 battery,dell inspiron 1501 battery,dell inspiron 1520 battery,dell inspiron 1521 battery,dell inspiron 1525 battery,dell inspiron 1526 battery,dell laptop battery .
