The Influence of Catalysts on Discharge and Charge Voltages of Rechargeable Li-Oxygen Batteries

Lu YC, Gasteiger HA, Parent MC, Chiloyan V, Shao-Horn Y

This study revealed the strong influence of carbon, Au/C, and Pt/C catalysts on the charge and discharge voltages of rechargeable Li-O-2 batteries. Li-O-2 single-cell measurements showed that Au/C had the highest discharge activity, while Pt/C exhibited extraordinarily high charging activity. (C) 2010 The Electrochemical Society.
