“…Furthermore, the advantages using aluminum are it has high recyclable value and an abundant material. 2,3 Besides that, to fit the requirement of portable devices, the current aqueous liquid electrolyte used is not suitable due to the high possibility of leakage and penetration of electrolyte through channels in the porous air cathode area. Therefore, replacing the liquid electrolyte with a solid polymer membrane as an electrolyte can help to overcome this challenge.…”

Aluminum-air battery is a promising future energy storage device because it has a high energy density and is eco-friendly. The effects of zinc oxide filler on polyvinyl alcohol/alkaline solid polymer electrolyte for aluminum-air battery applications have been investigated. From the impedance measurement, the highest ionic conductivity achieved was 1.61 × 10 −2 S cm −1 by PVA/4 wt% ZnO/2 M KOH at room temperature. From XRD analysis, crystallinity intensity decreased when KOH was added into the system. The FTIR also showed that the O-H and C-O bonds shifted to a high wavenumber, from 3282 to 3383 cm −1 and 1092 to 1103 cm −1 , respectively, as the KOH concentration increased, which strengthened the bonding in the film. Thus, LSV analysis showed that the highest stability achieved by PVA/4 wt% ZnO/2 M KOH was ±2.15 V, which proved that this film is suitable in aluminum-air battery applications. Furthermore, in the aluminum-air coin cell, the longest discharge voltage time was achieved by PVA/4 wt% ZnO/2 M KOH in which the cell voltage was maintained at 1.49 to 1.53 V for almost 20 hours at 0.8 mA/cm 2 .

“…[146] According to another report, the Arabic gum electrolyte polymer membrane protects the anode surface from corrosion. [147] The flax straw extract significantly reduced Al corrosion (with 50 % efficiency) at a relatively low concentration (3 vol %) applied to the alkaline solution and may be considered a mixed-type inhibitor because it significantly reduces both anodic and cathodic electrochemical processes. [148] The formation of a protective coating on the Al surface demonstrates the exceptional corrosion prevention effect of chrysanthemum coronarium leaves extract (CCLE), a CCLE additive, on the Al anode.…”

Aluminum‐air batteries (AABs) are regarded as attractive candidates for usage as an electric vehicle power source due to their high theoretical energy density (8100 Wh kg−1), which is considerably higher than that of lithium‐ion batteries. However, AABs have several issues with commercial applications. In this review, we outline the difficulties and most recent developments in AABs technology, including electrolytes and aluminum anodes, as well as their mechanistic understanding. First, the impact of the Al anode and alloying on battery performance is discussed. Then we focus on the impact of electrolytes on battery performances. The possibility of enhancing electrochemical performances by adding inhibitors to electrolytes is also investigated. Additionally, the use of aqueous and non‐aqueous electrolytes in AABs is also discussed. Finally, the challenges and potential future research areas for the advancement of AABs are suggested.

“…For the ORR process in AAB, porous carbon can be employed as the cathode. [167] A quick impregnation-calcination technique was used to create three dimensional boron-doped carbon microspheres (B-CMs). The B atoms on the surfaces of CMs primarily took the form of boron carbide, resulting in many flaws.…”

Aluminum air batteries (AABs) are a desirable option for portable electronic devices and electric vehicles (EVs) due to their high theoretical energy density (8100 Wh K−1), low cost, and high safety compared to state‐of‐the‐art lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs). However, numerous unresolved technological and scientific issues are preventing AABs from expanding further. One of the key issues is the catalytic reaction kinetics of the air cathode as the fuel (oxygen) for AAB is reduced there. Additionally, the performance and price of an AAB are directly influenced by an air electrode integrated with an oxygen electrocatalyst, which is thought to be the most crucial element. In this study, we covered the oxygen chemistry of the air cathode as well as a brief discussion of the mechanistic insights of active catalysts and how they catalyze and enhance oxygen chemistry reactions. There is also extensive discussion of research into electrocatalytic materials that outperform Pt/C such as nonprecious metal catalysts, metal oxide, perovskites, metal‐organic framework, carbonaceous materials, and their composites. Finally, we provide an overview of the present state, and possible future direction for air cathodes in AABs.
