Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of negative electrode materials for lithium metal batteries. Specifically disclosed is a rambutan shell-like 3D lithium-philic composite current collector, including a 3D porous metal current collector and a rambutan-like shell-like lithium-philic metal phosphide layer compounded on the surface of the 3D porous metal current collector in situ. The invention also discloses that the 3D lithium-friendly composite current collector is applied to the preparation of lithium metal composite electrodes. Thanks to the rich specific surface, good electrical conductivity, and excellent lithiophilicity of the lithium-philic composite current collector, the local current density is effectively reduced, the polarization voltage and the nucleation overpotential of lithium deposition are greatly reduced, The continuous and uniform deposition / dissolution of lithium metal under high current density is realized, the growth of lithium dendrites is effectively inhibited, and the cycle life of lithium metal batteries is significantly improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium metal batteries, and in particular relates to a current collector and a negative electrode of a lithium metal battery. Background technique [0002] The negative electrode of a lithium metal battery is usually a single substance of lithium metal. The mechanism of action in the battery is the deposition and dissolution of lithium metal. The charging and discharging mechanism is: charging: Li + +e=Li; discharge: Li-e=Li + ; What is different from the negative electrode of the conventional lithium ion battery is the intercalation and extraction of lithium ions in the graphite negative electrode. Lithium metal batteries and lithium ion batteries are new battery systems with different mechanisms. [0003] Lithium metal has a very high theoretical specific capacity of 3860mAh g -1 , and the lowest electrochemical potential -3.04V (relative to the standard hydrogen electrode), has been considered the ...
