Advanced Cobalt Phosphide and Derivatives Air-Cathode Catalysts for
Zinc-Air Batteries
Abstract
In recent years, with the increasing demand for energy storage
technology, there is an urgent need for more efficient, lower cost, and
more stable Zinc-Air Batteries (ZABs) devices to adapt. Therefore, how
to improve the air cathode catalyst is a problem that cannot be
bypassed. In order to solve this key problem, the synthesis and
application of ZABs air cathode catalysts, especially cobalt phosphide
materials (2019 to early 2024), are discussed in this paper. The
synthesis scheme and purpose of cobalt phosphide and its derivatives are
briefly evaluated in the selected literature. The performance of ZABs
devices assembled with air cathode catalyst is also reviewed. Finally,
the development in recent years is described, and the future development
is prospected. this work may be for the future air cathode catalyst
cobalt phosphate and its derivatives ZABs studies provide some guidance.
