Zinc–air battery

OverviewHistoryReaction formulasStorage densityStorage and operating lifeDischarge propertiesCell typesMaterials

A zinc–air battery is a metal–air electrochemical cell powered by the oxidation of zinc with oxygen from the air. During discharge, a mass of zinc particles forms a porous anode, which is saturated with an electrolyte. Oxygen from the air reacts at the cathode and forms hydroxyl ions which migrate into the zinc paste and form zincate (Zn(OH) 4), releasing electrons to travel to the cathode. The zincate dec…
