Engineering Self-Supported Hydrophobic-Aerophilic Air Cathode with CoS/Fe3S4 Nanoparticles Embedded in S, N Co-Doped Carbon Plate Arrays for Long-Life Rechargeable Zn-Air Batteries

Lei Yan et al.

Summary: A hydrophobic-aerophilic strategy is developed to engineer the reaction kinetics at air cathodes by fabricating a self-supported air cathode based on CoS/Fe3S4 nanoparticles encapsulated in S, N co-doped carbon plate arrays (CoS/Fe3S4@SNCP). The in situ growth of bimetallic sulfides nanoparticles on the carbon plate arrays improves the intrinsic electrocatalytic activity and electron conduction of the air cathode. The hydrophobic-aerophilic surface repels water molecules and creates abundant solid-liquid-gas three-phase reaction interfaces, promoting the diffusion of reactive molecules/ions and oxygen adsorption.

High-Density Atomic Fe-N4/C in Tubular, Biomass-Derived, Nitrogen-Rich Porous Carbon as Air-Electrodes for Flexible Zn-Air Batteries

Chuanlai Jiao et al.

Summary: Low-cost single-atom catalysts (SACs) supported on waste biomass carbon have been developed for oxygen reduction/evolution reactions (ORR/OER) to enhance the performance of metal-air batteries. The hierarchical porous structure and hollow tube morphology of Fe single atoms supported on biomass carbon play a critical role in boosting ORR/OER performance. The high-loading content of Fe single atoms and ultra-high N doping compensate for the insufficient OER performance, resulting in a promising zinc-air battery with high peak power density and stable discharge-charge voltage.
