Improved stability of oxygen evolution reaction and oxygen reduction reaction by CeO2 coating for zinc-air batteries
Currently, one of the key constraints to the industrialization of rechargeable Zinc-Air Batteries (ZABs) is the unreliability of their durability. This study tackles the issue by successfully creating a reliable bifunctional electrocatalyst. By constructing carbon nanotubes (CNTs), cobalt atoms are encapsulated within them (Co@CNT). By combining CeO2 with Co@CNT,applying a CeO2 coating on CNTs establishes a sturdy structure with good corrosion resistance (Co@CNT@CeO2). This choice prevents the loss of active substances in CNTs while supporting smooth mass transfer with the external environment. The compatibility and protective features of CeO2 in these electrocatalysts significantly improve stability, making them promising for long-cycle ZABs.
