NOTE EDITORE
Metal-air batteries (MABs) have attracted attention because of their high specific energy, low cost, and safety features. This book discusses science and technology including material selection, synthesis, characterization, and their applications in MABs. It comprehensively describes various composite bifunctional electrocatalysts, corrosion/oxidation of carbon-containing air cathode catalysts, and how improvements can be achieved in the catalytic activities of oxygen reduction reaction and oxygen evolution reaction and their durability/stability. This book also analyzes, compares, and discusses composite bifunctional electrocatalysts in the applications of MABs, matching the fast information of commercial MABs in requirements. Aimed at researchers and industry professionals, this comprehensive work provides readers with an appreciation for what bifunctional composite electrocatalysts are capable of, how this field has grown in the past decades, and how bifunctional composite electrocatalysts can significantly improve the performance of MABs. It also offers suggestions for future research directions to overcome technical challenges and further facilitate research and development in this important area.SOMMARIO

Dr. Yan-Jie Wang obtained his M.S. in Materials from North University of China in 2002 and his Ph.D. in Materials Science & Engineering from Zhejiang University, China in 2005. Subsequently, he conducted two and a half years of postdoctoral research at Sungkyunkwan University, Korea, followed by two years as a research scholar at Pennsylvania State University, USA, studying advanced functional materials. In April 2009, he was co-hired by the University of British Columbia, Canada, and the National Research Council of Canada to research advanced materials. During November 2012 and August 2017, he worked as a senior research scientist for the University of British Columbia and Vancouver International Clean-Tech Research Institute Inc. (VICTRII), researching core–shell structured materials. From September 2017, he started as an academic leader in the School of Environment and Civil Engineering at the Dongguan University of Technology. Also, he is an adjunct professor at Fuzhou University in China. Dr. Wang has published 60 papers in peer-reviewed journals, conference proceedings and industry reports.
