Abstract

The rechargeable alkaline aqueous zinc-air batteries (ZABs) are prospective candidates to supply the energy demand for their high theoretical energy density, inherent safety, and environmental friendliness. However, their practical application is mainly restricted by the unsatisfactory efficiency of the air electrode, leading to an intense search for high-efficient oxygen electrocatalysts. In recent years, the composites of carbon materials and transition metal chalcogenides (TMC/C) have emerged as promising alternatives because of the unique properties of these single compounds and the synergistic effect between them. In this sense, this review presented the electrochemical properties of these composites and their effects on the ZAB performance. The operational fundamentals of the ZABs were described. After elucidating the role of the carbon matrix in the hybrid material, the latest developments in the ZAB performance of the monometallic structure and spinel of TMC/C were detailed. In addition, we report topics on doping and heterostructure due to the large number of studies involving these specific defects. Finally, a critical conclusion and a brief overview sought to contribute to the advancement of TMC/C in the ZABs.

碳基过渡金属硫族化合物作为可充电锌-空气电池双功能阴极电催化剂的最新进展

可充电碱性水锌空气电池(ZABs)具有理论能量密度高、固有安全、环境友好等优点，是满足能源需求的理想选择。然而，它们的实际应用主要受到空气电极效率不理想的限制，导致对高效氧电催化剂的强烈寻求。近年来，碳材料与过渡金属硫族化合物(TMC/C)的复合材料由于其单一化合物的独特性质和它们之间的协同作用而成为很有前途的替代材料。本文综述了这些复合材料的电化学性能及其对ZAB性能的影响。介绍了zab的操作基本原理。在阐述了碳基体在杂化材料中的作用后，详细介绍了TMC/C的单金属结构和尖晶石的ZAB性能的最新进展。此外，由于涉及这些特定缺陷的大量研究，我们报告了掺杂和异质结构的主题。最后，一个关键的结论和一个简短的概述，试图促进TMC/C在ZABs的进步。
