Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of battery materials, and in particular to a layered double hydroxide surface-modified zinc battery negative electrode and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] With the increasing consumption of traditional fossil fuels such as coal and petroleum, the energy and environmental crises have forced people to shift their attention to renewable clean energy. However, renewable energy has problems such as intermittency and low utilization rate. How to improve the input / output stability of such energy and its intelligent grid connection, rechargeable batteries play an important role in their storage and conversion processes. Currently, lithium-ion batteries have been dominant in the application market of secondary batteries due to their high energy density and high output voltage. However, lithium-ion batteries face various problems: the safety hazards brought by the inherently flammable organic electrolyte, the shortage of lithium supply due to the insufficient lithium resource reserves, and the high prices of transition metals and organic electrolytes, etc., all of which limit their long-term use in the field of large-scale energy storage. Therefore, seeking to develop new large-scale energy storage technologies with a safer system and lower preparation cost is the key.
[0003] So far, a variety of rechargeable aqueous metal ion (such as K + , Na + , Al 3+ , Zn 2+ ) batteries have been developed and may become the main energy system in the future. Among them, aqueous zinc ion batteries (ZIBs) have attracted much attention due to their inherent advantages: the high theoretical volume specific capacity (5855 mAh / cm 3 ) and mass specific capacity (820 mAh / g) of zinc metal, the lower oxidation / reduction potential (-0.76 V vs. standard hydrogen electrode), rich resources, and the non-toxicity, simple preparation process, high ionic conductivity, and low cost of aqueous zinc salt electrolytes.
[0004] The negative electrode material of the zinc ion battery uses metallic zinc. Due to the uneven distribution of ions and electric fields on the surface of the zinc ion battery negative electrode and the direct contact between zinc metal and the electrolyte, zinc dendrites and corrosion by-products are inevitably formed on the zinc sheet during the charge and discharge process of the battery cycle, resulting in a lower Coulomb efficiency and a limited cycle life, which is the most important part restricting the development of aqueous zinc ion batteries. Currently, interfacial modification of the negative electrode is one of the most effective solutions.
[0005] Layered double hydroxide (LDH) has attracted extensive attention due to its unique properties. The general formula of LDH can be expressed as where x = M 2+ / (M 2+ +M 3+ ), M 2+ and M3+ represents divalent and trivalent cations, A n- is an interlayer anion (such as carbonate ion, nitrate ion). Therefore, layered double hydroxides increase the possibility of various anion and cation combinations and achieve relatively uniform dispersion, thus having multifunctionality. The interface modification layer of layered double metal hydroxides has abundant metal sites to induce uniform nucleation of zinc; its excellent hydrophilic property can significantly reduce the interface resistance and promote the zinc ion transport kinetics; in addition, this modification layer has good chemical stability and significantly inhibits side reactions such as interface corrosion and hydrogen evolution as a physical barrier.
[0006] Generally, layered double hydroxides are mainly prepared by two methods: hydrothermal deposition and in-situ growth. In the former technique, LDH is mainly synthesized by the hydrothermal growth method and then further deposited on the metal substrate by different methods, but this method takes up to more than ten hours of preparation time and often has poor adhesion. In the latter technique, the LDH film grows directly on the substrate, showing better adhesion performance, but the operation is not simple, and at the same time, a high-temperature and high-pressure preparation environment is required, which significantly reduces the possibility of industrial application. Therefore, further exploration is still needed to develop the zinc sheet interface modification layer material and provide a new preparation process. Summary of the Invention
[0007] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the defects of poor adhesion, long preparation time, low stability, and complex operation existing in the above two methods of hydrothermal deposition and in-situ growth, and to provide a layered double hydroxide surface-modified zinc battery negative electrode and its preparation method. The present invention electrochemically strips the zinc sheet in the form of anodic oxidation, increasing the binding force between the zinc sheet and the layered double hydroxide film, so that the layered double hydroxide film can be stably and uniformly attached to the surface of the zinc sheet.
[0008] The purpose of the present invention can be achieved by the following technical solutions:
[0009] One of the technical solutions of the present invention is to provide a preparation method of a layered double hydroxide surface-modified zinc battery negative electrode, including the following steps:

Place the ground zinc sheet in ethanol, acetone, and deionized water in sequence for ultrasonic cleaning. The ultrasonic cleaning time is 10 - 30 min respectively, and the drying temperature is 60 - 90 °C.
[0018] Further, in step S2, the constant voltage is - 0.8 - - 1.7 V; the time for electrochemical stripping is 5 - 40 min.

The mass ratio of the two nitrates is 1:5 - 5:1, and the total concentration of the two nitrates is 100 - 200 mmol / L.
[0022] Further, in step S4, the constant current density is 0.5 - 5.0 mA / cm 2 ; the electrochemical deposition time is 2 - 150 min; the drying method is selected from any one of natural air - drying, air - blowing, freeze - drying, or low - temperature drying.

[0057] Comparative Example 1:
[0058] Compared with Example 1, most of them are the same. Except that the electrochemically exfoliating step is omitted. The specific steps are as follows: Cut the commercially pure zinc sheet into small pieces of 3×3.5 cm, and polish it with 3000-mesh sandpaper until there are no obvious scratches on the surface.

[0059] Figure 1 Figure 12 is a scanning electron microscope (SEM) image of the negative electrode of the zinc battery surface-modified by the ZnAl-LDH layer of the layered double hydroxide film prepared in Example 1. The prepared ZnAl-LDH layer adheres uniformly on the zinc sheet substrate. The microscopic morphology of the material presents a nano-flower shape, and the surface structure is a three-dimensional sheet cross. It can not only increase the specific surface area but also increase the binding force between the ZnAl-LDH layer and the zinc sheet. This structure provides continuous, uniform, and abundant channels for charge transfer.
[0060] Figure 2 Figure 13 is a digital photo, SEM image, and corresponding element distribution map of the negative electrode of the zinc battery surface-modified by the layered double hydroxide film prepared in Examples 1-2 (a, c are the negative electrodes of the zinc battery surface-modified by the ZnAl-LDH layer prepared in Example 1, and b, d are the negative electrodes of the zinc battery surface-modified by the NiCo-LDH layer prepared in Example 2). On the surface of the pretreated zinc foil, the corresponding layered double hydroxide film coating is electrodeposited uniformly, showing good binding force with the substrate, which can significantly improve the charge distribution on the surface of the bare zinc under the action of the electric field and realize the uniform deposition / stripping of Zn 2+ .
[0061] The zinc battery anodes prepared in the above examples and comparative examples were assembled and tested for their electrochemical performance: The layered double hydroxide film surface-modified zinc battery anodes prepared in the above examples and comparative examples were taken. A pure zinc sheet (diameter 12 mm, purity ≥ 99.99%) was used as the positive electrode, 3 mol / L zinc sulfate solution was used as the electrolyte, and glass fiber was used as the separator. The battery was assembled in air. The assembled button battery was tested for its electrochemical performance, and the charge-discharge voltage range was 0.3 - 1.6 V (vs. Zn 2+ / Zn).
[0062] Figure 3 The long cycle performance of the zinc battery assembled with the layered double hydroxide film surface-modified zinc battery anode prepared in Examples 1 - 2 at 1 mA / cm 2 , 1 mAh / cm 2 current. By testing the cycle stability of the zinc battery anodes with ZnAl-LDH layer and NiCo-LDH layer attached, it can be seen that the cycle time of NiCo-LDH@Zn can reach about 400 h, and the cycle time of ZnAl-LDH@Zn can reach about 375 h, indicating that the zinc battery anodes with ZnAl-LDH layer and NiCo-LDH layer attached have good chemical stability and significant effects as physical barriers to inhibit side reactions such as interfacial corrosion and hydrogen evolution.
[0063] Figure 4 The XRD patterns of the layered double hydroxide film surface-modified zinc battery anodes prepared in Examples 1 - 2. Compared with the standard card, the characteristic crystal plane diffraction peaks of ZnAl-LDH@Zn and NiCo-LDH@Zn are (003), (006), and (012), and the intensities of the XRD diffraction peaks of ZnAl-LDH@Zn and NiCo-LDH@Zn become stronger, indicating that the crystallinity has increased, meeting the expected goal.
[0064] Figure 5 The long cycle performance and digital photos of the battery composed of the layered double hydroxide film surface-modified zinc battery anodes prepared in Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 at 1 mA / cm 2 , 1 mAh / cm 2 current. It can be seen from the digital photos that the green layered double hydroxide on the surface of the zinc battery anode (A) prepared in Example 1 is evenly distributed and completely covers the surface of the zinc sheet. The grayish-white layered double hydroxide on the surface of the zinc battery anode (B) obtained in Comparative Example 1 is extremely unevenly distributed, and the microscopic morphology of the zinc battery anode shows many un-deposited exposed parts. The modified layer is easy to fall off, and according to the long cycle performance test, the cycle life time of the assembled zinc battery is short. Therefore, electrochemical stripping can improve the bonding situation between the zinc sheet and the layered double hydroxide modified layer and improve the cycle performance of the zinc battery.
