Abstract
A metal-air battery with a high discharge capacity is provided. Discharge capacity can be increased by a metal-air battery that includes an air electrode, a negative electrode and an electrolyte layer, where the electrolyte layer includes a porous separator, and a liquid electrolyte infiltrated in the separator, and a contact angle between the liquid electrolyte and a negative electrode side-face of the separator is smaller than that between the liquid electrolyte and an air electrode side-face of the separator.
