VANADIUM BORIDE AIR MULTIPLE ELECTRON HIGH CAPACITY BATTERY

摘要

A battery and methods of forming vanadium boride nanoparticles of an anode within a battery, and a method for recharging an air battery. The battery comprises an anode and a cathode in electrochemical contact with each other through an electrically neutral ionic conductor (an electrolyte). The cathode may comprise a catalyst effective for the reduction of dissolved oxygen. An electrical discharge of the anode is performed via multiple electron oxidation of vanadium boride.
