摘要
锌锰电池问世以来,由于其结构简单、安全、无毒、成本低廉且环保等特点得以广泛应用。在传统的碱性电解液中的循环稳定性差,难以实现连续多次充放循环,限制了锌锰电池的应用。而在中性电解液中,锌锰电池可以有上千次的循环寿命。在介绍不同电解液中电池工作机理的基础上,阐述了电解液对锌锰电池可充性的影响,并对可充锌锰电池技术未来的发展进行了展望。
Since the advent of the Zn/MnO_2 battery, it has been widely used because of its simple structure, safety, nontoxic, low cost and environmental friendly. In the traditional alkaline batteries, the stability is poor, and it is difficult to realize the continuous charging of long circulation to limit more applications of the batteries. While in mild electrolyte, the battery shows thousands of cycle life. On the basis of introducing the mechanism in different electrolyte, the effects of electrolyte on the rechargeability for the Zn/MnO_2 battery were discussed and its future development was proposed.
