Published purpose

Air cathode is a key component of e-Zn's energy storage technology. It is also the only component that cannot be obtained in the open market currently; we have been source it through another metal-air developer. In order to secure air cathode supply, we want to explore the possibility of establishing our own cathode making capability. T his project aims to 1) to assess the possibility and and the issues of making air cathode in house, 2) to see if we can make prototype air cathode with properties close to those obtained from our supplier.
