AIR ELECTRODE AND NON-AQUEOUS AIR BATTERY

A main object of the present invention is to provide an air cathode with great discharged capacity per unit area. The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems by providing an air cathode used for a nonaqueous air battery, comprising: an air cathode current collector having a porous structure and an air cathode layer containing a conductive material and formed on the air cathode current collector, wherein the average supporting amount of the a conductive material in a planar area of the air cathode is within a range of 0.3 mg/cmto 9.0 mg/cm.
