Problems solved by technology

However, these PBA-type cathodes, such as cyanoferric hexacyanoferrate (FeHCF), suffer from short lifetime, low rate capability, and low operating voltage.
Significant specific capacity decay within short lifetime ≤ 1000 cycles prevents practical application of PBA-cathode
In addition, compared with the initial current density, at a current density of about 1 A g -1 , the ratecapability even experienced a severe capacity reduction of up to 50%
The insufficient lifetime and lower rate performance are attributed to the limited utilization of redox-active sites (Fe(III / II)), which is caused by the close-fitting effect exerted by six cyano groups per unit

Abstract

The invention provides a method for activating ferric ferricyanideand a zinc ion battery prepared by the method. The method comprises the following steps ofcarrying out high-voltage scanning on a Zn-FeHCF battery, after high-voltage scanning, carrying out program standing on the Zn-FeHCF battery, carrying out program discharging on the Zn-FeHCF battery after the Zn-FeHCF battery is subjected to program standing,and completing a high-voltage scanning period after the battery is subjected to program discharge, and continuously carrying out 100-1000 periods to complete the activation. The invention also provides a zinc ion battery adopting the ferric ferricyanide activated by the method as a cathode. According to the activation method disclosed by the invention, an electrochemical more stablestructure is generated, so that the Zn-FeHCF battery can realize the cycle performance of creating records with a relatively high capacity retention rate after an ultra-long cycle.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for activating ferricyanide and a zinc ion battery prepared therefrom, belonging to the technical field of batteries. Background technique [0002] Zinc ion batteries (Zinc ion batteries, ZIBs), which store divalent zinc ions in the cathode body, are being intensively studied due to the high energy density and inherent safety of metallic zinc anodes. Zinc has a favorable plating / stripping voltage (approximately -0.76V vs SHE) and is electrochemically stable in water, which enables ZIBs to avoid the use of toxic organic electrolytes and complex assembly in glove boxes compared to their lithium and sodium counterparts process. This advantage of the zinc anode has led researchers to pay more attention to the development of cathode host materials. Among these materials, MnO with various crystalline phases has been developed 2 Based on the cathode, the Mn(IV) / Mn(III)-based single-electron transfer reaction provides high ...
