The aluminum-air battery is a promising energy storage system due to its high theoretical energy density, lightweight design, and environmentally friendly characteristics. However, there is a corrosion reaction which decreases the performance of aluminum air battery. Self-corrosion reaction can be suppressed by alloying aluminum. Tin (Sn), indium (In), and manganese (Mn) were used as alloying elements to enhance these properties by optimizing anodic dissolution, stabilizing discharge potential, and reducing self-corrosion in this study. As a result, aluminum-air batteries could achieve higher efficiency, energy density, and long-term stability. By balancing the synergistic effects of these alloying elements, aluminum-air batteries can meet the demands of conventional energy storage applications with improved durability and performance.
