Background technology
Al-H
2O
2Semi-fuel cell maximum system energy density is high, is particularly suitable for long-time discharge.At Al-H
2O
2In the semi-fuel cell, because H
2O
2Catholyte contacts with positive plate direct chemical reaction can occur, this side reaction can not produce foreign current, but can consume the active material more than 50%, reduce the output energy of battery, therefore usually adopt and such as the Nafion cation-exchange membrane cathode and anode is kept apart.Al-H

2Main chemical reactions equation as shown in table 1 occurs during battery discharge, and along with the carrying out of exoelectrical reaction, the negative electrode negative electrical charge is on the increase, because the Nafion cation-exchange membrane is that selectivity sees through Na
+, stop simultaneously anion to see through, so Na
+Be transferred to the catholyte from anolyte, realize the charge conservation of battery; Usually can there be following three drawbacks when adopting cation-exchange membrane: at first, because H

2Electrode one side will constantly generate OH
-, OH
-Continuous accumulation the pH value of solution is raise, and under alkali condition, along with the increase of pH value, H
2O
2Decompose and produce O
2Speed can obviously increase, therefore cause H

2Utilance significantly reduces.Secondly, because cation-exchange membrane can't be blocked the Al in the anode part
3+To the diffusion of negative electrode, Al
3+Understand the OH with negative electrode
-Form Al (OH)
3Colloidal precipitation, the catalytic performance of reduction cathod catalyst affects the regular picture reaction of negative electrode, and the generation of precipitation also can reduce ionic conductivity and the useful life of amberplex greatly.At last, for 6e
