Aluminium Air Battery

High energy density and low cost. The aluminium anode and air cathode along with an aqueous electrolyte, generate power through the oxidation of aluminium by oxygen from the air. However, a major issue is the corrosion of the aluminium anode thus reducing capacity and compromising calendar life.

The aluminium air battery is a primary battery.
