Abstract

High-efficient and long-cycle air cathodes are crucial for the development of rechargeable zinc-air batteries (ZABs). Herein, we develop a strategy of micro-spherical cobalt-doped Fe5(PO4)4(OH)3 center dot H2O (Co-FPOH), synthesized by a novel water-oil two-phase hydrothermal method, which was used as ORR/OER bifunctional electrocatalyst for ZABs. The change of local electronic distribution is identified by doping of Co into Fe5(PO4)4(OH)3 center dot H2O (FPOH), effectively improving the electrocatalytic performance of the resulted Co-FPOH. The OER overpotential of Co-FPOH (290 mV) far outperforms state-of-the-art RuO2 (350 mV); the ORR catalytic reaction of Co-FPOH is near 4e-, almost reaching the theoretical value of Pt/C (n = 4.00). The ZAB assembled with Co-FPOH as an air electrode exhibits an ultralong cycling lifetime of 450 h at 5 mA cm-2, a super high peak power density of 167.8 Wh cm- 2, a high open circuit voltage of about 1.42 V and a large discharge specific capacity of 817 mAh gZn- 1 at 10 mA cm-2. The proposed Co-FPOH is expected to outperform precious metal electrocatalysts as a potential bifunctional electrocatalyst for advanced ZABs. Also, this work offers a novel strategy to synthesize excellent bifunctional electrocatalysts for this kind of energy-related electrocatalytic reactions.
