Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of electrochemical materials, and particularly relates to an In-Sn-Bi ternary eutectic alloy anode material, a preparation method thereof, and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] The deficiencies of traditional energy in terms of environmental protection, cost, and sustainability are becoming increasingly prominent. Renewable clean energy is an inevitable trend for future development. Among existing chemical power source technologies, lithium-ion batteries are widely used in electric vehicles, electronic devices, and grid energy storage fields. However, lithium-ion batteries still struggle to meet the growing demands for safety and energy density, and the available lithium reserves in the earth's crust are limited. There is still a lack of economically effective lithium recovery technologies, and the continuous consumption of lithium resources will inevitably lead to an increase in the cost of lithium-ion batteries. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop new green secondary batteries with high specific energy, high safety, and low cost.

[0003] The magnesium reserve in the earth's crust (2.9 wt%) is much higher than that of lithium (0.002 wt%). It is a low-cost material, and the melting point of magnesium is 660 °C, which is more stable than lithium in the atmosphere and easier to handle. The redox potential of magnesium is low (-2.37 V vs. H + / H2), and the theoretical volume capacity of metallic magnesium is 3833 mAh / cm 3 which is nearly twice that of lithium-ion batteries. This is because one redox center of magnesium carries two charges, thus having a higher capacity storage ability within the same volume. And the magnesium ion radius is similar to that of lithium ions and the expansion caused by replacing two lithium ions with one magnesium ion inserted into the host lattice will also be reduced. Different from the easy formation of dendrites by lithium metal, alkaline earth metal ions have a lower diffusion energy and weaker bond binding, so it is easier to form a smooth deposition layer, making magnesium-ion batteries safer. Therefore, rechargeable magnesium batteries with metallic magnesium as the anode have potential advantages in terms of cost, energy density, and safety. They are considered to be a very promising green secondary battery and have become an important research and development direction for new rechargeable batteries. However, the incompatibility between the cathode, electrolyte, and anode is one of the main obstacles to the development of rechargeable magnesium batteries. Metallic magnesium is prone to form a passivation film on the surface in traditional simple electrolytes, making it difficult for magnesium ions to deposit / dissolve reversibly, which limits the development of rechargeable magnesium batteries. Finding a substitute anode with good compatibility is one of the important solutions.

[0004] In recent years, although substitute anodes for rechargeable magnesium batteries have been widely concerned and studied, there is currently no anode material with high cycle stability, and various developed substitute anodes for rechargeable magnesium batteries generally still have problems such as high production cost and complex preparation process, which are not suitable for large-scale production and seriously hinder their commercial application process.

[0051] Example 3

[0052] The In-Sn-Bi ternary eutectic alloy negative electrode material provided by the present invention is obtained through the following preparation method. Specifically:

[0053] Weigh 1.236 g of indium powder with a purity of 99.99%, weigh 0.639 g of tin powder with a purity of 99.99%, and 1.125 g of bismuth powder with a purity of 99.9%.

Figure 5 is for In 50 Sn 25 Bi 25X-ray diffraction pattern of the alloy powder, as shown in Figure 5 It can be seen that the In-Sn-Bi ternary eutectic alloy negative electrode material is composed of a Bi phase with a hexagonal crystal system, a Sn phase with a tetragonal crystal system, and an InBi phase with a tetragonal crystal system.

[0055] The method for assembling the half-cell and testing the performance is the same as that in Example 1. The In in this example 50 Sn 25 Bi 25 The reversible charge / discharge results after the alloy electrode is activated are as shown in Figure 6 The reversible discharge capacity is 172.3 mAh / g, and the reversible charge capacity is 161.4 mAh / g. The In 50 Sn 25 Bi 25 The cycle performance of the alloy electrode is as shown in Figure 7 At a current density of 0.05 mA / cm 2 The reversible capacity is 172.3 mAh / g, showing excellent electrochemical behavior. After 80 cycles, the capacity is 94 mAh / g.

[0056] Comparative Example 1

[0057] For the In-Sn-Bi ternary alloy negative electrode material in this comparative example, its formulation and ratio are basically the same as those in Example 2, except that the molar ratio of In to Sn is 1:8. Its preparation method is the same as that in Example 2, and finally, the In 10 Sn 80 Bi 10 alloy is obtained.

[0058] Comparative Example 2

[0059] For the negative electrode material in this comparative example, its formulation and ratio are basically the same as those in Example 2, except that its formulation only contains bismuth powder with a purity of 99.99%; its preparation method is the same as that in Example 2, and finally, micron-sized Bi powder is obtained.

[0060] Comparative Example 3

[0061] For the negative electrode material in this comparative example, its formulation and ratio are basically the same as those in Example 2, except that its formulation only contains tin powder with a purity of 99.99%; its preparation method is the same as that in Example 2, and finally, micron-sized Sn powder is obtained.

[0062] Comparative Example 4

[0063] For the negative electrode material in this comparative example, its formulation and ratio are basically the same as those in Example 2, except that its formulation only contains indium powder with a purity of 99.99%; its preparation method is the same as that in Example 2, and finally, micron-sized In powder is obtained.

[0064] The test results of the cycling performance of the negative electrode material prepared in Comparative Example 1 at a rate of 0.02C are as follows Figure 7 shown. When In and Sn are in a molar ratio of 1:8, the cycling performance is very poor because a fine ternary eutectic structure cannot be formed at a large molar ratio of In and Sn. For the negative electrode materials prepared in Example 1, Example 2, and Example 3, charge-discharge tests were carried out at rates of 0.02C, 0.05C, 0.1C, and 0.33C respectively, and the test results are as follows Figure 8 shown. When In and Sn are in a molar ratio of 1:1 and the atomic proportion of Bi is 80%, the rate performance is the best. When the proportions of In and Sn are increased simultaneously, the rate performance does not improve and decreases. Therefore, based on the In-Sn-Bi ternary alloy phase diagram, comparing Example 1, Example 2, and Example 3, increasing the proportions of In and Sn simultaneously may form a certain In-Sn eutectic structure but cannot combine with Bi to form a fine ternary eutectic structure at the same time, and will reduce the Bi content that provides most of the specific capacity, resulting in a decrease in electrochemical performance.

[0065] For the negative electrode materials prepared in Comparative Examples 2, 3, and 4, the method for assembling and testing the performance of the half-cell was the same as that in Example 1, and the results are as follows Figure 9 shown. From Figure 9 it can be seen that micron-sized In and Sn electrodes cannot provide capacity, and the capacity of the Bi electrode is limited by its own theoretical capacity (385 mAh / g) and cannot be further improved. The experimental capacities of the In 10 Sn 10 Bi 80 , In 40 Sn 20 Bi 40 and In 50 Sn 25 Bi 25 electrodes are all significantly higher than those of In, Sn, and Bi electrodes.

[0066] Figure 10 For the In and Sn with the optimal performance in Example 1, with a ratio of 1:1 and both being 10% of In 10 Sn 10 Bi 80 at a rate of 0.02C, the actual specific capacity and its retention rate at 50 cycles and 80 cycles respectively. From Figure 10 it can be seen that the In 10 Sn 10 Bi 80 ternary eutectic alloy negative electrode material in this application has excellent specific capacity and capacity retention rate.
