Problems solved by technology

The most serious problem is the continuous growth of metal lithium dendrites, which leads to a series of problems: (1) The continuous growth of lithium dendrites is easy to puncture the solid electrolyte membrane (SEI film), which intensifies the side reaction with the electrolyte and the instability of the Li metal interface
(2) Lithium dendrites are prone to fracture during the cycle, resulting in the generation of a large amount of dead lithium, which reduces the coulombic efficiency of the battery
(3) The continuous growth of lithium dendrites can easily cause the diaphragm to be pierced, resulting in a short circuit in the battery, which poses a very large safety hazard
However, this method faces the problem of high production cost and difficulty in large-scale application
In addition, metal lithium protective layer is also a common lithium metal protection strategy. At present, most of the reports in the literature are in-situ growth of protective layers directly on the surface of metal lithium. However, due to the strong reactivity of metal lithium, in-situ growth is difficult, and the reaction conditions are harsh. , which also limits the practical use of the method

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of electrochemical energy systems, and in particular relates to a lithium metal negative electrode material protected by a natural high molecular polymer. Background technique [0002] With the continuous consumption of fossil energy, and the deepening of society's awareness of clean energy, environmental friendliness and sustainable development, the demand for the development of green energy and energy storage systems is becoming increasingly urgent. In recent years, with the rapid development of mobile devices, power vehicles and other fields, there are higher requirements for the capacity and energy density of lithium-ion batteries. At present, the commercial anode materials of lithium-ion batteries mostly use graphite anode, but due to its low theoretical capacity (374mAh / g), it can no longer meet the requirements of lithium-ion batteries for high energy density. Lithium metal anodes are considered to b...
