Metal-oxygen batteries (MOBs) are promising for energy storage due to safety, low cost, and high energy density. However, the accumulation of discharge products during the oxygen reduction process can hinder the flow of active species, leading to increased impedance and shortened cycle life. A 3D-SOM structure of ruthenium/single-walled carbon nanotubes air electrode is shown to mitigate these effects and enhance the performance of MOBs.
Metal-oxygen batteries (MOBs) are great candidates for next-generation energy storage systems due to their high safety, low cost, environmental friendliness, and especially high volumetric energy density. However, during the oxygen reduction process in MOBs, the solid discharge products can deposit/accumulate, clog the small pores of the air electrode, and block the transport of oxygen and various ion species in aqueous or non-aqueous electrolytes, therefore leading to increased impedance and shortened cycle life of MOBs. Herein, we demonstrate that a three-dimensionally semi-ordered macroporous (3D-SOM) structure of ruthenium/single-walled carbon nanotubes air electrode can largely alleviate detrimental effects due to the accumulation of reaction products during the discharge process, facilitating the smooth flow of active species, including oxygen and ions in an air electrode during the charge/discharge processes of MOBs such as non-aqueous lithium-oxygen and aqueous zinc-oxygen batteries. As a result, the 3D-SOM structured air electrode can be used as an effective approach to reduce the overpotential and impedance of MOBs, therefore enhancing their capacity and cycle life.
