Abstract

The severe corrosion of Al-anode is the main barrier preventing the application of Al for air battery with alkaline solution. In this paper, the influence of organic/inorganic compound inhibitor of L-Cysteine/ZnO on the corrosion and electrochemical performance of 3102 Al-alloy were examined in 4 mol/L alkaline solutions. Results show that the corrosion of 3102 Al-alloy is significantly restrained by the L-Cysteine/ZnO compound inhibitor. The dissolution of Al-anode is mainly controlled by the charge-transfer in NaOH and NaOH L-Cysteine solutions, but in NaOH/ZnO and NaOH/L-Cysteine/ZnO solutions, the discharge is mainly controlled by the diffusion of the zincate ions and corrosion products. By adding L-Cysteine/ZnO compound inhibitor in 4 mol/L NaOH alkaline solution, the discharging performance of aluminum air battery with 3102 Al-anode was improved obviously.

Key words: 3102 Al-alloy air battery corrosion inhibitor L-Cysteine ZnO
