In order to advance the commercialization of rechargeable Li-air batteries, it is of importance to explore cathode catalyst with efficient catalytic activity. Transition metal oxides have poor electrical conductivity, while cobalt phosphide has excellent electrical conductivity and large specific surface area. Nevertheless, its application in organic Li-air batteries has been much less studied, and the electrocatalytic activity desires to be further elevated. Here, CoP/Co₂P heterojunction composite with higher polarity was fabricated. The discharge product of high-polarity CoP/Co₂P had a new porous box-like morphology, which was easy to be decomposed and exposed more active sites. The highly polar CoP/Co₂P heterostructure composite had homogeneous pores, the synergistic effect existed between CoP and Co₂P, and the discharge product was porous box mixed with Li₂O₂ and LiOH, which made CoP/Co₂P achieve high specific capacity of 14632 mAh/g and cycle stably 161 times when used as air electrode cathode catalyst. This work furnished a thought for the construction of cathode catalysts with efficient catalytic activity for Li-air batteries.
