Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of secondary batteries, specifically to the technical field of sodium ion battery negative electrodes, and in particular to a sodium ion battery hard carbon negative electrode material prepared by biomass-based cross-linking and its application. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of electric vehicles, electronic products, and energy storage devices, lithium-ion batteries have dominated the energy storage technology field due to their high energy density and excellent cycle stability. However, the high cost and uneven distribution of lithium resources have greatly limited their application in large-scale energy storage grids and low-cost energy storage devices. In contrast, sodium, with chemical properties similar to lithium, has gradually come into people's attention. Due to its low cost, wide distribution of sodium, and abundant reserves in my country, sodium-ion batteries can alleviate the shortage of lithium resources to a certain extent and can also gradually replace lead-acid batteries, which have safety risks.

[0003] At present, achieving high-performance and low-cost sodium-ion batteries is still a huge challenge. In particular, hard carbon anode materials for sodium-ion batteries are considered to be the best choice for electrochemical performance, cost control, and sustainable resource development. As one of the non-graphite carbons, hard carbon has a large interlayer spacing, rich defects, and porosity, which can provide Na + It provides abundant active sites. More importantly, hard carbon as a negative electrode material for sodium ion batteries has a lower operating voltage and higher capacity, meeting the safety and functionality of battery applications.

[0004] China University of Petroleum (East China) provides a hard carbon material, its preparation method and application in sodium ion batteries in CN115124025A. First, the carbon source particle size is controlled to ensure uniform particle size. Then, a "salt crystal hydrothermal-flash burning" synergistic method is adopted to infiltrate the transition metal salt into the carbon source precursor through the salt crystal hydrothermal process. During the flash burning carbonization process, the salt crystals are used as templates to accurately control the microscopic pore structure, surface chemical composition and degree of graphitization of the hard carbon material, forming a more stable structure that is beneficial to improving electrochemical performance. The flash burning carbonization process can make the local temperature around the salt crystals higher than that of the hard carbon matrix material, and the metal cations can catalyze the atomic rearrangement of carbon atoms at high temperature, so that the local graphitization degree around the salt crystals is increased, thereby instantaneously increasing the degree of graphitization of the hard carbon material, while limiting the defects of the hard carbon material and improving the specific capacity of the sodium ion battery.

[0005] Huizhou Yiwei Lithium Energy Co., Ltd., in CN115321514A, provides a hard carbon material, its preparation method, and application. The hard carbon material is doped with heteroatoms, including nitrogen and nitrogen atoms, and the nitrogen atoms are a combination of at least two of As, Se, Sb, or Te. The hard carbon material can be prepared through a simple synthesis process and doped with at least three heteroatoms. The synergistic effect between the heteroatoms increases the interlayer spacing of the hard carbon material and introduces defect sites, significantly distorting the structure of the hard carbon material. This increases the sodium ion insertion and adsorption capacity, resulting in high gram capacity and high rate performance.

[0006] In general, existing methods for preparing hard carbon materials derived from biomass are limited, and they often suffer from poor structural control and performance. The present invention aims to overcome these issues by selecting a suitable method for cross-linking biomass materials, rationally controlling surface defects on the hard carbon, and improving the reversible capacity and initial coulombic efficiency of hard carbon anode materials. Summary of the Invention

This cross-linked biomass macromolecular structure prevents the release of small molecule gases during pyrolysis, reduces the formation of surface defects on the hard carbon, facilitates electron transfer, and improves the reversible capacity and first-cycle coulombic efficiency of the hard carbon negative electrode material.

The slurry was then applied on copper foil using a coating device to ensure that the active material mass was 1-1.5 mg / cm 2 , and obtain a hard carbon negative electrode sheet for sodium ion batteries.

[0129] Application and performance testing

[0130] The hard carbon material prepared in the above-mentioned embodiments and comparative examples is used as the negative electrode active material for sodium ion batteries to prepare the electrode sheet. The specific method is as follows: the sodium ion battery hard carbon negative electrode material, the conductive agent acetylene black, and the binder sodium carboxymethyl cellulose are ground into a uniform slurry in a mass ratio of 8:1:1, and then coated on the copper foil with a coater to ensure that the active material surface loading is 1-1.5 g / cm 2 , a hard carbon negative electrode sheet for sodium ion batteries was obtained, and sodium ion button batteries were prepared in a glove box, and the electrochemical performance of the button batteries was tested.

[0131] Table 1 shows the battery performance of the sodium ion battery hard carbon negative electrode material prepared in each embodiment and comparative example. Compared with the comparative example, the embodiment has a higher reversible capacity and first-week coulombic efficiency. This is because the biomass base as a macromolecule extends the molecular chain structure through chemical cross-linking, which can effectively prevent the release of small molecule gases during high-temperature pyrolysis, minimize the formation of surface defects of hard carbon, promote electron transfer, and give it excellent rate performance. Table 2 shows the electrochemical performance of Example 2 at different current densities (50-1000mA / g). As shown in Table 2, Example 2 still has a reversible capacity of 227mAh / g at a current density of 500mA / g and a reversible capacity of 209mAh / g at a current density of 1000mA / g, showing the excellence of the present invention at high current density. Figure 1 The scanning electron microscope image of Example 2 shows that it is amorphous. Figure 2 and Figure 4This shows that the battery prepared by the present invention has a longer platform area. Figure 3 This is the rate performance of Example 2, indicating that the present invention has good cycle stability at different current densities. Figure 5 The long cycle performance of Example 2 at a larger current density (1 A / g) shows that 80% of the capacity is still maintained even after 750 cycles, demonstrating its excellent cycle stability.
