TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application relates to the field of H01M10 / 00, in particular to a sodium ion battery cell with high cycle retention rate and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Lithium ion batteries occupy the main market of secondary batteries due to high energy density and long cycle life. At present, most advanced energy storage systems adopt lithium ion battery technology. However, lithium ion batteries are high in price and short in lithium resources. As a new type of chemical power supply, sodium ion batteries have advantages of rich resource reserves and low cost, and have broad application prospects in large-scale energy storage fields.

[0003] Chinese patent CN102544514B discloses a surface carbon modified lithium ion battery positive electrode material and a preparation method thereof. The positive electrode material obtained after carbonization by modifying LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 with hydroxy aldehyde resin has excellent rate performance, but the raw material cost of the lithium ion battery is high, and the cycle retention rate needs to be improved. Chinese patent CN112563484A discloses a sodium ion battery positive electrode material, a preparation method thereof and a sodium ion battery. The sodium ion battery positive electrode material with a layered structure is obtained by controlling the reaction of the precursor mixed solution under high temperature and high pressure. However, due to the limitation of some intrinsic properties of sodium ions, the cycle life and rate performance cannot meet the needs of current large-scale energy storage technology, and the existing sodium ion battery mostly uses ester organic electrolyte. Since the ester organic electrolyte contains a large amount of organic flammable solvent, when the battery is out of control, explosion and combustion will occur, which brings great safety hazards to the battery.

[0004] Therefore, the application provides a sodium ion battery cell with high cycle retention rate and low cost to solve the problems of non-environmental protection and safety hazards of organic solvent type, effectively improve the cycle life and rate performance of the sodium ion battery, meet the actual use requirements of products such as mobile phones and computers which need multiple charging and discharging, and have important practical research significance and application value. SUMMARY

[0005] In order to solve the above problems, the application provides a sodium ion battery cell with high cycle retention rate, which mainly comprises a positive electrode material, a negative electrode material and an electrolyte.

[0006] As a preferred technical solution, the positive electrode material comprises a positive electrode sheet, a positive electrode active material, a conductive material A, a bonding material A and a solvent A.

[0007] As a preferred technical solution, the positive pole piece is selected from any one of aluminum foil and copper foil; the thickness of the positive pole piece is 5-8 μm; preferably, the positive pole piece is copper foil, and the thickness of the positive pole piece is 6 μm. By adopting the copper foil with a thickness of 6 μm as the positive pole piece, the rebound of the thickness of the pole piece in the processing process is avoided, and the performance of the battery is ensured.

[0008] In the processing of the sodium ion battery cell, the selection of the material affects the processing effect and difficulty, and further affects the performance of the final sodium ion battery cell. The positive electrode material of the sodium ion battery cell is the key to determining the energy density, power density, cycle life and safety performance and other indicators of the sodium ion battery cell. As a preferred technical solution, the positive electrode material includes, by weight, 25-33 parts of positive electrode active material, 5-8 parts of conductive material A, 6-10 parts of bonding material A, 30-40 parts of solvent A, which provides a positive electrode slurry with high stability, suitable viscosity and good flowability, and helps to ensure the capacity, cycle life and safety of the sodium ion battery cell.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution, the positive electrode active material is selected from at least one of layered oxide material, polyanion type positive electrode material and Prussian blue positive electrode material.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution, the positive electrode active material is selected from at least one of MnO2, Na x MnO2, Na3V2(PO4)3, NaFePO4, Na2FeP2O7, Na2NiFe(CN)6; preferably, the positive electrode active material is Na3V2(PO4)3, which has good kinetics and cycle stability, effectively improves the specific capacity of the sodium ion battery cell, makes the sodium ion battery cell have excellent rate performance, and prolongs the cycle life of the sodium ion battery cell. This may be due to the fact that the Na3V2(PO4)3 crystal structure with large volume has high stability, which is beneficial to the reversible insertion / extraction of sodium ions, and the insertion / extraction reaction does not cause structure collapse and amorphization.

[0011] The Na3V2(PO4)3 type is NVP-20 μm, and is purchased from Shenzhen Kexin Zhida Technology Co., Ltd.

[0012] The sodium ion superconductor Na3V2(PO4)3 has a strong ion diffusion rate, but the electronic conductivity is insufficient. As an optimal technical solution, the conductive material A is selected from at least one of single-walled carbon nanotubes, multi-walled carbon nanotubes, multi-walled carbon nanotubes, carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes, and fullerene carbon nanotubes. Preferably, the conductive material A is single-walled carbon nanotubes, which makes up for the insufficient conductivity of the sodium ion superconductor Na3V2(PO4)3. In the exploration process, it is found that when the tube diameter of the single-walled carbon nanotubes is 1-5 nm and the length is 20-50 μm, the conductivity of the positive electrode material is significantly improved, and the ability of sodium ions to re-embed after de-embedding is promoted, thereby improving the cycle retention rate of the sodium ion battery.

[0013] The CAS number of the single-walled carbon nanotubes is 308068-56-6, and the purity is 99.9%. They are purchased from Zhejiang Yamei Nanometer Technology Co., Ltd.

[0014] The selection of the binding material relates to whether the slurry can be well coated on the pole piece. As an optimal technical solution, the binding material A is selected from at least one of styrene-butadiene rubber, polyvinyl alcohol, and sodium alginate. Preferably, the binding material A is a combination of polyvinyl alcohol and sodium alginate. When the mass ratio of the polyvinyl alcohol to the sodium alginate is (0.5-1.2):(2-4), the positive electrode slurry provided by the combination of the positive electrode active material, the conductive material A, and the solvent A has high stability, suitable viscosity, and good fluidity, which helps to ensure the capacity, internal resistance, cycle life, and safety of the sodium ion battery. In addition, the introduction of the biobased degradable material polyvinyl alcohol improves the degradation performance of the battery, making the provided sodium ion battery more environmentally friendly. In the exploration process, it is found that when the viscosity (25°C) of the polyvinyl alcohol is 54.0-66.0 mPa.s and the viscosity (25°C) of the sodium alginate is 200±20 mpa.s, the positive electrode slurry has the most suitable viscosity and fluidity, which helps to coat the pole piece smoothly and avoid cracks and shedding on the surface of the pole piece, thereby ensuring the capacity, internal resistance, cycle life, and safety of the sodium ion battery and meeting the usage requirements of products such as mobile phones and computers that need multiple charging and discharging.

[0015] As an optimal technical solution, the solvent A is deionized water.

[0018] As a preferred technical solution, the negative pole piece is selected from any one of aluminum foil and copper foil; the thickness of the positive pole piece is 5-8 μm; preferably, the negative pole piece is copper foil, and the thickness of the negative pole piece is 6 μm. By adopting the copper foil with a thickness of 6 μm as the negative pole piece, the rebound of the thickness of the pole piece in the processing process is avoided, and the performance of the battery is ensured.

[0019] As a preferred technical solution, the negative pole material includes, by weight, 18-25 parts of a negative active material, 4-6 parts of a binder material B, and 20-30 parts of a solvent B, so as to provide a negative pole slurry with high stability, suitable viscosity, and good fluidity, which helps to ensure the capacity, cycle life, and safety of the sodium ion battery.

[0020] The negative active material is selected from at least one of MoO3, activated carbon, expandable graphite, NaTi2(PO4)3, lithium titanate, sodium superionic conductor, and manganese-based Prussian blue; preferably, the negative active material is MoO3, activated carbon, and expandable graphite, and preferably, the mass ratio of the MoO3, activated carbon, and expandable graphite is (4-6):(2-3):(1-3), which helps to improve the cycle retention rate of the sodium ion battery, so that the provided sodium ion battery has high cycle stability and capacity retention rate. In the exploration process, it is found that although the layered structure of MoO3 is beneficial to the embedding and extraction of sodium ions, it greatly improves the cycle number and capacity retention rate of the sodium ion battery, but the electronic conductivity of MoO3 is insufficient, and when the activated carbon with a specific surface area of 1982 m 2 / g and the expandable graphite with a particle size of 48 μm are used in combination, the problem of insufficient conductivity of the negative electrode material is compensated, the cycle life and rate performance of the sodium ion battery are ensured, and the sodium ion battery is especially suitable for products such as mobile phones and computers that need to be charged and discharged multiple times.

[0021] The CAS number of the MoO3 is 1313-27-5, the product number is M104354, and it is purchased from Shanghai Aldrin Biochemical Technology Co., Ltd.; the model of the activated carbon is SAC-18, and it is purchased from Shenzhen Kexing Zhida Technology Co., Ltd.; the expandable graphite is purchased from Shenzhen Kexing Zhida Technology Co., Ltd.

[0023] The polyvinyl alcohol has a CAS number of 9002-89-5, a model number of P139541, and is purchased from Shanghai Aldrich Biochemical Technology Co., Ltd.

[0024] As a preferred technical solution, the solvent B is deionized water.

As a preferred technical solution, the electrolyte is selected from any one of carbonate electrolyte, ether electrolyte, aqueous electrolyte, and ionic liquid electrolyte. The film layer generated by the electrolyte on the surface of different electrodes has different compositions and properties, thereby affecting the electrochemical stability of the sodium-ion battery. In order to match the above-mentioned positive electrode material and negative electrode material, the cycle life and rate performance of the sodium-ion battery are maximized. As a preferred technical solution, the electrolyte is an aqueous electrolyte, which has high ionic conductivity, realizes high efficiency and energy density, solves the problem of non-environmental protection and safety hazard of organic flammable solvents in the existing organic electrolyte of sodium-ion battery, is rich in resources, low in cost, simple in production process, and has great potential for large-scale industrial application.
