CATHODE INCLUDING BASE-RESISTANT COMPOUND AND LITHIUM-AIR BATTERY INCLUDING THE SAME

A cathode for an air battery includes a porous conductive material; and a base-resistant compound on a surface of the porous conductive material, the base-resistant compound having a 0 or positive Gibbs free energy at 2 V to 4.5 V vs Li/Li+ at a pH of about 7 to about 14.
