Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a lithium air battery that is used for a long period of time with little degradation due to effect by moisture in the air without inhibiting supply of oxygen to a porous positive electrode due to air electrode collector. SOLUTION: The lithium air battery includes: an oxygen permselective membrane 80 hardly permeable to water vapor and selectively permeable to oxygen; an oxygen chamber 88 for storing therein oxygen; the air electrode collector 62 formed of a porous material; a diffusion layer 50 arranged between the air electrode collector and the porous positive electrode and formed of a conductive material; the porous positive electrode 10 for containing the conductive material and a catalyst material; a separator 30 hardly passing the water vapor therethrough; nonaqueous electrolyte 40; a negative electrode 20 for emitting lithium ions; and a negative electrode collector 64. The lithium air battery may also include a water-repellent layer. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT
