Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of new energy, and specifically relates to a CuS composite material, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] In potassium-ion batteries, transition metal sulfides have attracted widespread attention due to their moderate theoretical potassium storage capacity and excellent redox reversibility. Among them, copper-based sulfides (such as CuS and Cu2S) have high theoretical capacity, low cost, and are environmentally friendly, making them promising anode materials for potassium-ion batteries. However, due to the large radius of potassium ions, the significant volume changes during potassium insertion / extraction can damage the electrode material structure, leading to a rapid decline in the potassium storage performance of the anode material. Meanwhile, K... + The slow reaction kinetics also limit the potassium storage performance of the anode material. Therefore, designing a suitable potassium-ion battery anode material with high potassium storage performance is an extremely challenging task.

[0003] Lifang Jiao et al. designed CuS-C@Nb2O5-C nanofibers with a core-shell structure. (Adv.Funct.Mater., doi.org / 10.1002 / adfm.202007712) In this structure, copper sulfide nanoparticles are distributed in the core layer of carbon nanofibers, while Nb2O5 is distributed on the surface of the carbon nanofiber shell. At 0.1A g... -1 After 100 cycles at a current density, the reversible capacity remains at 259.2 mA hg. -1 ; 2.0A g -1 After 2000 cycles at a current density, the reversible capacity remains at 95.1 mA hg. -1 However, the limited contact sites and uncontrollable buffer volume during potassium insertion / extraction lead to poor electron / ion transport efficiency and material structure degradation. Therefore, a combination of good structural integrity and superior charge transport is crucial for designing high-performance potassium-ion battery anodes. Summary of the Invention

[0029] The outermost hollow spherical carbon shell has a porous structure on both its inner and outer surfaces;

[0030] The outermost hollow spherical carbon shell is composed of carbon.

[0032] The CuS content relative to the composite material is 48 wt%, more preferably 48-86 wt%.

[0033] This invention provides CuS composite materials for use in potassium-ion batteries.

[0034] This invention provides a secondary battery containing CuS composite material, the secondary battery including a potassium-ion battery, the potassium-ion battery including a positive electrode, a negative electrode and an electrolyte; the negative electrode including a current collector and a negative electrode material loaded on the current collector; wherein, the negative electrode material contains the CuS composite material.

[0035] A method for preparing CuS composite materials includes the following steps:

[0036] 1. Copper metal ions and organic ligands self-assemble in solution to form copper-organic framework compounds (Cu-MOF);

[0037] 2. Cu-MOF was coated with 2-methylimidazolium zinc salt (ZIF-8) to obtain ZIF-8-encapsulated Cu-MOF complex (Cu-MOF@ZIF-8);

[0038] 3. Cu-MOF@ZIF-8 is pre-annealed and carbonized under an inert atmosphere to obtain Cu@C1@ZIF-8; the pre-annealing and carbonization step includes: holding at an inert atmosphere and at a temperature of 350℃ or 400℃ or 450℃ for 1-3 hours.

[0039] 4. Selectively etch the internal components of ZIF-8 in Cu@C1@ZIF-8 with a tannic acid solution to obtain a rattle-shaped composite YS Cu@C1@ZIF-8 with internal pores; the solvent in the tannic acid solution is a water-alcohol mixture.

[0040] 5. Annealing and carbonization in an Ar / H2 atmosphere while removing Zn simultaneously yields YS Cu@C1@C2;

[0041] 6. YS Cu@C1@C2 is vulcanized under a sulfur vapor atmosphere to obtain YS CuS@C1@C2 composite material, which is the CuS composite material.

[0042] Optionally, step 1 includes: dissolving copper salt and tricresyl peroxide in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and reacting them fully, then adding the mixture dropwise to a polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) solution. After the reaction is fully completed, the reaction solution is centrifuged to remove the mother liquor, and the precipitate is washed with methanol to obtain a methanol dispersion of Cu-MOF.

[0047] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: This invention modulates the internal interface of the material to a certain extent, designing a CuS / carbon interface. In this invention, Cu-MOF is used as a precursor. After carbonizing the MOF, an internal carbon layer can be directly introduced into the material, shortening the diffusion path of electrons and ions in the CuS core and enhancing electron / ion transport from the outer carbon shell to the CuS core. The abundant porosity and large specific surface area of ​​the MOF itself also contribute to improved reaction kinetics. Furthermore, the CuS@C1 core is confined within a ZIF-8 derived hollow carbon shell, providing sufficient internal void space to buffer the volume expansion during potassium ion insertion / extraction, resulting in a unique bell-shaped structure. The outer carbon shell structure, to some extent, reduces the aggregation between active materials.

[0059] Figure 11 A schematic diagram of the preparation process in Example 1. Detailed Implementation

[0060] Example 1:

[0061] 1) Dissolve 2.44 g of copper nitrate trihydrate and 0.58 g of trimesic acid in 5.0 g of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), sonicate for 30 min, and then place in a 65 °C oven overnight. Then, add 1.0 ml of the above liquid dropwise to 10 ml of methanol containing 100 mg of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) (Mw = 40000), and stir vigorously in an oil bath at 55 °C for 90 min. Wash the product three times by centrifugation with methanol, dry to obtain Cu-MOF nanoparticles, and then disperse in 10 ml of methanol for later use.

[0062] 2) The dispersion containing 20 mg of Cu-MOF nanoparticles was added to 20 ml of methanol solution containing 100 mM zinc nitrate hexahydrate, stirred for 20 s, and immediately poured into 20 ml of methanol solution containing 200 mM dimethylimidazole, stirred for 20 s, and allowed to stand for 24 h. After filtration and washing with methanol and drying, Cu-MOF@ZIF-8 was obtained.

[0063] 3) Place Cu-MOF@ZIF-8 in a tube furnace under an argon atmosphere for pre-annealing and carbonization. The pre-annealing temperature is 400℃ and the annealing time is 1h.

[0064] 4) Disperse the annealed sample in a mixed solution of 0.47 ml anhydrous ethanol and 8.05 ml water. While stirring, quickly pour in 8.75 ml of an aqueous solution containing 87.5 mg tannic acid, stop stirring, let stand for 10 min, wash with ethanol and water by centrifugation, and dry to obtain Y-SCu@C1@ZIF-8.

[0065] 5) The obtained YS Cu@C1@ZIF-8 was placed in a tube furnace under an Ar / H2 atmosphere for annealing and carbonization while removing Zn. The annealing temperature was 650℃ and held for 5 hours. After natural cooling, YS Cu@C1@C2 was obtained.

[0066] 6) The obtained YS Cu@C1@C2 was sealed in a tube with sulfur powder at a mass ratio of 1:1 and placed in a muffle furnace. It was first kept at 155℃ for 6 hours, and then heated to 250℃ and kept for 3 hours. After natural cooling, the product was placed in a tube furnace under an argon atmosphere and kept at 200℃ for 6 hours to remove excess sulfur powder, thus obtaining YS CuS@C1@C2.

[0067] In step 3), the pre-annealing and carbonization temperature should not exceed 450°C. Excessive temperature will cause excessive damage to the structure of the outer ZIF-8 layer, thereby causing the failure of subsequent selective corrosion of the internal components of ZIF-8 by tannin acid.

[0068] In step 5), the annealing and carbonization temperature needs to be above 600℃, otherwise Zn will not be completely removed.

[0069] Figure 1 The image shows a scanning electron microscope (SEM) image of the bell-shaped carbon-based CuS composite material (Y-SCuS@C1@C2) prepared in Example 1. It can be seen that the composite material has a bell-shaped structure (with a bell-shaped core-shell structure). The core is a CuS compound and is well confined within the inner carbon shell. The inner carbon shell is in close contact with the outer surface of the core CuS. The outer carbon shell is a hollow carbon shell, and there is a hollow gap between the inner and outer carbon shells. The outer carbon shell is a ZIF-8 derived hollow carbon shell.

[0071] Figure 3 Thermogravimetric analysis of the YS CuS@C1@C2 composite material prepared in this embodiment, with a content of 48 wt%.

[0072] 7) The product from step 6), YS CuS@C1@C2 composite material (70wt%), conductive carbon black (15wt%), and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC 15wt%), were thoroughly ground in an agate mortar, with deionized water used as a dispersant. The resulting slurry was coated onto a prepared nickel foam current collector and vacuum-dried at 80°C for 12 hours. The electrode was then weighed. The mass of the slurry on each current collector was determined based on the mass difference before and after drying. After weighing, the electrode was again dried in a vacuum drying oven at 80°C for 2 hours and then placed in a glove box in preparation for coin cell assembly.

[0073] 8) The button cell was assembled in an argon-filled glove box, with a potassium metal sheet as the negative electrode, glass fiber as the separator, and the electrode sheet made as the positive electrode.

[0074] 9) The constant current charge-discharge test mainly examines the charge-discharge specific capacity, cycle performance, and rate performance of potassium-ion half-cells under different currents. Initially, the positive electrode material in the potassium-ion half-cell lacks potassium ions; therefore, constant current discharge is required at the beginning to allow potassium ions to embed into the positive electrode. After discharge, the positive electrode material is in a potassium-rich state, and the charging test begins. This cycle is repeated. The test voltage range for the potassium-ion half-cell is 0.05-2.8V, and the charge-discharge current density is set to 100mA g based on experimental conditions. -1 ~20A g -1 Not equal.

[0075] Figure 4 The image shows the charge-discharge cycle performance of the YS CuS@C1@C2 nanocomposite material prepared in this embodiment in a potassium-ion battery. Its performance at 1 A g... -1 At the specified current density, the capacity remained at 190 mA hg after 1000 cycles. -1 ;

[0076] Figure 5 The image shows the charge-discharge rate performance of the YS CuS@C1@C2 nanocomposite material prepared in this embodiment in a potassium-ion battery. Rate performance testing was performed by starting the charge-discharge current from 0.1 A g / g. -1 Increased to 20A g -1 In 20A g -1Its capacitance is 195 mA hg at a current density. -1 When the current density increases from 20 A g -1 Return to 0.1A g -1 At that time, its reversible capacity remained at 399 mA hg -1 It exhibits excellent rate performance.

[0077] Figure 11 The diagram illustrates the synthesis process in this embodiment. First, a ZIF-8 layer is coated onto the surface of Cu-MOF to construct a Cu-MOF@ZIF-8 structure. Due to the difference in stability between the two MOFs, HKUST-1 is first converted to Cu / Cl during the pre-carbonization process, while ZIF-8 retains its crystalline structure. Then, ZIF-8 is etched with tannic acid to form a hollow structure, yielding Y-SCu / Cl@ZIF-8. Subsequently, the sample is calcined at high temperature in a reducing atmosphere to carbonize ZIF-8 and remove metallic Zn. Finally, after sulfidation treatment, the YS CuS@Cl@C2 composite material is obtained.

[0078] Example 2 (Comparative Example):

[0079] 1) Dissolve 2.44 g of copper nitrate trihydrate and 0.58 g of trimesic acid in 5.0 g of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), sonicate for 30 min, and then place in a 65 °C oven overnight. Then, add 1.0 ml of the above liquid dropwise to 10 ml of methanol containing 100 mg PVP (Mw = 40000), and stir vigorously in an oil bath at 55 °C for 90 min. Wash the product three times by centrifugation with methanol and dry to obtain Cu-MOF.

[0080] 2) The obtained Cu-MOF was placed in a tube furnace under an argon atmosphere and annealed at 400℃ for 1 h, and then heated to 650℃ and held for 5 h to obtain Cu / Cl.

[0081] 3) After sealing the obtained Cu / Cl with sulfur powder at a mass ratio of 1:1, place it in a muffle furnace and maintain it at 155℃ for 6 hours, then raise the temperature to 250℃ and maintain it for 3 hours. After natural cooling, place the product in a tube furnace under an argon atmosphere and maintain it at 200℃ for 6 hours to remove excess sulfur powder, thus obtaining CuS / Cl. Figure 6 The image shown is a scanning electron microscope image of the CuS composite material (CuS / Cl) prepared in Example 2. It can be seen that the composite material has a bell-shaped structure with a core of CuS and an outermost carbon shell derived from Cu-MOF.
