3-D Zinc / Air Bipolar Rechargeable Battery

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((ASHT,volume 6))

Abstract

For the development of a rechargeable zinc/air battery, La0.6Ca0.4CoO3 (perovskite) catalyzed bifunctional oxygen electrodes and 3-D zinc electrodes were prepared and tested in a bipolar zinc/air battery. In addition, a numerical model for the zinc electrode was developed and the numerical calculations were compared with the experimental results. The potential drop was determined as a function of the current density, depth of discharge and the number of cycles. The maximum power of a bipolar stack containing three elements was determined.
