Air electrodes performance in zinc-air batteries for portable devices [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
Zinc-air batteries operate by using oxygen from the air at the positive electrode and oxidation of zinc metal at the negative electrode. Oxygen from the air is reduced at the air electrode and the zinc electrode oxidizes to form zinc oxide (ZnO). This process generates the electrochemical energy of the system. The zinc-air system is unique in that zinc-air cells must be exposed to air in order to discharge. This exposure to ambient air, if not properly controlled, can severely shorten the system's operating life due to the negative effects of water vapor transpiration and carbon dioxide adsorption on the electrolyte and the air electrode.
