Li-air battery using current collector-catalysts monolithic 3 dimensional nanofiber network for Li-air battery and manufacturing method thereof

Abstract

Disclosed is an electrode for lithium-air batteries without using a binder and a carbon additive and a method of manufacturing the same, and more specifically, provided is a nanofiber network-based current collector-catalyst monolithic porous air electrode which has an improved specific surface area and high air permeability as the energy density per weight is increased and the diameter, porosity, and thickness of the nanofibers are controlled by utilizing a significantly light polymer and carbon based material.
