Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of batteries, in particular to a positive electrode material and a preparation method thereof, a positive electrode sheet and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] After the crystal water of the Prussian blue material is completely removed, the crystal structure is converted into a rhombic crystal system. The Prussian blue material in the rhombic crystal system is easy to absorb water when exposed to air, and is reconverted into a monoclinic structure containing crystal water. Therefore, how to reduce the content of crystal water of the Prussian blue material and how to reduce the hygroscopic property of the Prussian blue material become technical problems to be solved.

[0003] In the prior art, neutral ligands L are often used to participate in the coordination of transition metals M, and partially or completely replace the coordinated water, so as to reduce the water absorption property of the Prussian blue positive electrode material. However, the neutral ligands in this method cannot exchange with the water (crystal water) in the interstitial site, and the content of the water in the interstitial site is much greater than that of the water in the defect site, so this method cannot completely solve the problems of water removal and moisture absorption. Moreover, the exchanged ligands H3CN, NH3, CO and C5H5N are easy to be electrochemically oxidized and decomposed at high potential, which may damage the material structure and cause the performance of the battery to decay.

[0004] Therefore, the present application is proposed. SUMMARY

[0012] The positive electrode material is treated with CO2 under specific conditions, and CO2 occupies the pore position or defect position of the original crystal water of the Prussian blue material, thereby reducing the moisture absorption rate of the Prussian blue material.

[0013] According to another aspect of the present application, the present application also relates to a preparation method of a positive electrode tab, comprising the following steps:

[0016] The positive electrode tab substrate comprises a positive electrode current collector and a positive electrode slurry layer arranged on at least one side surface of the positive electrode current collector, and the positive electrode slurry layer comprises a positive electrode material.

[0017] The positive electrode material is a Prussian blue material, or the positive electrode material is prepared by the preparation method of the positive electrode material.

[0018] The preparation method of the positive electrode tab is simple and easy to operate, does not need to rely on complex instruments and equipment, has low preparation cost, and the prepared positive electrode tab has low moisture absorption and good quality.

[0019] According to another aspect of the present application, the present application also relates to a positive electrode tab, which is mainly prepared by the preparation method of the positive electrode tab.

[0025] (3) The positive electrode material or the positive electrode tab for the preparation of the sodium ion battery can improve the coulomb efficiency and reversible capacity of the battery, and can also improve the cycle performance of the sodium ion battery and reduce the probability of battery swelling. The first mixing treatment does not need to increase additional equipment, and the operation is simple, which brings great benefits to the processing performance of the Prussian blue material in the sodium / potassium ion battery.

Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative labor are within the scope of protection of the present application. The specific conditions are not specified in the embodiments, which are carried out according to the conventional conditions or the conditions recommended by the manufacturer. The reagents or instruments used are not specified by the manufacturer, which are conventional products that can be purchased on the market.

[0027] According to one aspect of the present application, the present application relates to a preparation method of a positive electrode material, comprising the following steps:

[0028] The Prussian blue material is first dried under a closed condition, and then subjected to a first mixing treatment with CO2;

[0029] The pressure of the first mixing treatment is 50-200 KPa;

[0030] The time of the first mixing treatment is 30-240 min;

[0031] The temperature of the first mixing treatment is 20-30℃.

[0032] The preparation method of the positive electrode material provided by the present application mixes the dried Prussian blue material with CO2 under a specific pressure condition, which is simple and easy to operate.

[0033] In one embodiment, the pressure of the first mixing treatment may, for example, be, but is not limited to, 50 KPa, 60 KPa, 700 KPa, 80 KPa, 90 KPa, 100 KPa, 110 KPa, 120 KPa, 130 KPa, 140 KPa, 150 KPa, 160 KPa, 170 KPa, 180 KPa or 200 KPa.

[0034] In an embodiment, the first mixing process can be, for example, but not limited to, 30 min, 40 min, 50 min, 60 min, 70 min, 80 min, 90 min, 100 min, 120 min, 140 min, 160 min, 170 min, 180 min, 200 min, 210 min, 230 min or 240 min.

[0035] In an embodiment, the temperature of the first mixing process can be, for example, but not limited to, 20℃, 22℃, 24℃, 26℃, 28℃ or 30℃.

[0036] The molecular formula of Prussian blue is A x M y M’ 1-y [Fe(CN)6] 1-z nH2O, wherein A is Na or K; M is at least one of Fe, Co, Mn, Ni and Cu; M’ is at least one of Fe, Co, Mn, Ni and Cu; 0≤x≤2; 0<y≤1; 0≤z<1; 0≤n≤3.5.

[0037] The Prussian blue crystal has a three-dimensional framework structure formed by FeC6 and (M y M’ 1-y )N6 octahedrons connected by C≡N, and the alkali metal ions A and the water molecules in the interstitial sites are located in the three-dimensional channels of the framework structure. The ion content of A, the defect concentration of Fe(CN)6, and the presence of water molecules in the interstitial sites and defect sites (collectively referred to as crystal water) in the structure will affect the crystal symmetry of Prussian blue. Generally, the structure is cubic, monoclinic or rhombic.

[0038] The Prussian blue positive electrode material prepared using the aqueous solution coprecipitation method contains about 2 moles of water in the interstitial sites per mole (n=2) and a small amount of coordination water in the defect sites. The higher the concentration of A, the higher the specific capacity of the material, and the smaller the defect z. About 10% of the crystal water can be removed during high-temperature drying (>100℃), and the crystal structure is monoclinic. The crystal water of the Prussian blue material with monoclinic structure needs to be completely removed before the battery is injected with liquid electrolyte. The residual crystal water will enter the electrolyte during the charging process as the alkali metal ions are removed, causing capacity decay and increased gas production.

[0039] The present application utilizes the strong adsorption capacity of Prussian blue material for CO2 gas. After the Prussian blue material is vacuum baked to remove the crystal water, a certain pressure of CO2 is introduced into the oven. The CO2 adsorbs and occupies the pore sites or defect sites of the original crystal water, which can reduce the re-hydration rate of the Prussian blue material. After the processing process is exposed to water vapor in the air, the baking time of the electrode can be shortened.

[0054] Preferably, the first drying is performed at a vacuum degree of ≤ 100 Pa (e.g., 100 Pa, 90 Pa, 80 Pa, 70 Pa, or 60 Pa).

[0055] Preferably, the first drying is performed for 12-72 h (e.g., 12 h, 16 h, 20 h, 24 h, 28 h, 32 h, 36 h, 40 h, 44 h, 48 h, 52 h, 56 h, 60 h, 64 h, 68 h, or 72 h).

[0057] The positive electrode material provided by the present application has excellent quality and significantly reduced water absorption.

[0058] According to another aspect of the present application, the present application also relates to a method for preparing a positive electrode sheet, which comprises the following steps:

[0059] The positive electrode sheet substrate is subjected to a second drying under a closed condition, and then subjected to a second mixing treatment with CO2.

[0063] The method for preparing a positive electrode sheet provided by the present application is mixed with CO2 under specific conditions, which is simple in operation, easy to implement, and can prepare a positive electrode sheet with excellent quality.

[0064] In an embodiment, the pressure of the second mixing treatment can be, but is not limited to, 50 KPa, 60 KPa, 70 KPa, 80 KPa, 90 KPa, 100 KPa, 110 KPa, 120 KPa, 130 KPa, 140 KPa, 150 KPa, 160 KPa, 170 KPa, 180 KPa, or 200 KPa.

The baking can be performed when the Prussian blue powder is dried, or the Prussian blue positive electrode sheet is baked, or the battery roll core containing the Prussian blue positive electrode sheet is baked. After baking, it is usually necessary to operate in a low-humidity environment to prevent the Prussian blue material from reabsorbing moisture.

After a small amount of moisture absorption, the crystal water in the Prussian blue material can be removed again by vacuum baking, thereby reducing the baking time.

[0068] Preferably, the second drying temperature is 100-200°C (for example, 100°C, 110°C, 120°C, 130°C, 140°C, 150°C, 160°C, 170°C, 180°C, 190°C, or 200°C).

[0070] Preferably, the second drying vacuum degree is ≤100Pa (for example, 100Pa, 90Pa, 80Pa, 70Pa, 60Pa, or 50Pa).

[0135] Experimental Example

[0136] The Prussian blue materials prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Example 1 are placed in an atmospheric environment with a humidity of 60% and a temperature of 25°C, and the water absorption rate of the Prussian blue materials is tested by using a balance weighing method and a moisture content instrument-Karl-Fischer moisture meter. The water content test cutoff temperature is 200°C, and the results are shown in Table 1.

[0137] Table 1 Moisture absorption rate of different treatments

[0138]

[0139]

[0140] As can be seen from the test data in Table 1, the Prussian blue material of Comparative Example 1 has not been subjected to carbon dioxide adsorption, and after drying and dehydration, it is quickly absorbed when exposed to a high humidity environment. The Prussian blue materials of Examples 1-3 have adsorbed carbon dioxide, and when placed in a high humidity environment, their water absorption rate is significantly reduced.

[0141] When the adsorption pressure of CO2 is larger, the adsorption capacity of the Prussian blue material is stronger, and after a short time of adsorption, the water absorption of the Prussian blue material can be greatly reduced. After the dried Prussian blue positive electrode sheet is treated under the same conditions, similar effects are also obtained.

[0142] The positive electrode sheets and hard carbon negative electrode sheets of Examples 4-6 and Comparative Example 2, polyethylene separators, were laminated to form soft pack batteries in an environment with a relative humidity of 20%, the assembled roll cores were placed in a vacuum oven and baked at 100°C for 24h, then injected with electrolyte, formed, and divided. The performance of the batteries was measured, and the results are shown in Table 2.

[0143] Table 2 Performance of different treatments

[0144]

[0145] As can be seen from the data in Table 2, the soft pack sodium ion batteries assembled from the positive electrode sheets of Examples 4-6 after CO2 adsorption have lower moisture content in the positive electrode sheets before liquid injection, higher formation coulombic efficiency and reversible capacity, and improved cycle performance.
