摘要
In order to advance the commercialization of rechargeable Li-air batteries,it is of importance to explore cathode catalyst with efficient catalytic activity.Transition metal oxides have poor electrical conductivity,while cobalt phosphide has excellent electrical conductivity and large specific surface area.Nevertheless,its application in organic Li-air batteries has been much less studied,and the electrocatalytic activity desires to be further elevated.Here,CoP/Co_(2)P heterojunction composite with higher polarity was fabricated.The discharge product of high-polarity CoP/Co_(2)P had a new porous box-like morphology,which was easy to be decomposed and exposed more active sites.The highly polar CoP/Co_(2)P heterostructure composite had homogeneous pores,the synergistic effect existed between CoP and Co_(2)P,and the discharge product was porous box mixed with Li_(2)O_(2)and LiOH,which made CoP/Co_(2)P achieve high specific capacity of14632 m Ah/g and cycle stably 161 times when used as air electrode cathode catalyst.This work furnished a thought for the construction of cathode catalysts with efficient catalytic activity for Li-air batteries.
