Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of secondary battery materials, and particularly relates to a method for preparing a hard carbon negative electrode material. Background Art

[0002] Lithium-ion batteries have excellent electrical performance and are one of the most commercially successful secondary batteries, with a very wide range of applications, from mobile phones and watches to cars and energy storage. However, the low reserves of lithium elements in the earth's crust limit the further wide application of lithium-ion batteries. Sodium-ion and potassium-ion batteries have become a research hotspot today due to their rich resources and low cost. The diameters of sodium ions and potassium ions are relatively large, and graphite used as the negative electrode in lithium-ion batteries is not suitable for sodium / potassium-ion batteries. The negative electrode materials for sodium / potassium-ion batteries are mainly hard carbon materials, which are widely sourced and easy to prepare, making them the first choice for sodium / potassium-ion battery negative electrode materials. However, their research is not yet mature, especially the low specific capacity and first efficiency, which seriously affect the battery energy density and urgently need to be further improved.

[0003] Patent CN109301246B selects high-sulfur coal as the carbon source to prepare the hard carbon material for potassium-ion batteries. Sulfur atom doping can obtain a larger interlayer spacing, and the uniformly distributed pore structure is suitable for the insertion / extraction of potassium ions. However, the specific surface area of this hard carbon material is very large, and it shows only about 40% first Coulomb efficiency in the coin cell performance test, and it does not have industrial application value. CN116281939B improved it by using organotin, cerium nitrate, and lanthanum nitrate. However, these substances are relatively expensive, increasing the preparation cost.

[0004] Patent CN115881919A dopes boron, sulfur, phosphorus, and nitrogen elements on the surface of hard carbon to improve the conductivity of the material itself, making the prepared biomass composite hard carbon negative electrode material have a higher first efficiency, superior rate performance, and cycling performance. The sulfur source used is magnesium sulfate, and the sulfate radical basically does not change after high-temperature treatment and remains in the product in the form of ash, reducing the product performance.

[0005] Patent CN109911878A provides a method for preparing a high-capacity asphalt / epoxy resin-based modified hard carbon negative electrode material, which uses a sulfonic acid derivative. This substance provides an acidic medium to play a catalytic role, without being consumed or converted into reaction products. Patent CN115849337A introduces sulfur elements with a surfactant-based doping source. The surfactant has two main functions. One is to enhance the wetting of the carbonaceous surface and pores, expand the range of element doping and deposition amount, and the other is to increase the interlayer spacing to provide more active sites, that is, to increase the positions for storing lithium ions. In this method, the surfactant is added after pickling, without precipitation or stratification, and cannot be separated by solid-liquid separation in an efficient pressure filtration manner, and can only remove water by evaporation. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To overcome the above disadvantages, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] The present invention provides a method for preparing a hard carbon negative electrode material. First, a carbon source is crushed to a certain fineness to obtain a precursor 1, which is dispersed in water dissolved with a sulfur-containing surfactant; then a mixed acid is added for purification and impurity removal, and the mixture is washed and filtered with pure water multiple times until the filtrate is close to neutral, and then dried to obtain a precursor 2; finally, under the protection of an inert atmosphere, the precursor 2 is carbonized at a high temperature and subjected to post-treatment to obtain a high-performance hard carbon negative electrode material.

[0008] The carbon source can be coal or biomass carbonized material. The preparation method of the biomass carbonized material is as follows: the biomass raw material is broken into granular or flaky shapes and carbonized in a carbonization furnace at 400-750°C for 1-4 hours.

[0009] The carbon source is crushed, and the crushing fineness is D 50 of 5-10 μm, and the crushing method is mechanical crushing or air flow crushing.

[0010] The sulfur-containing surfactant is a sulfonate-type anionic surfactant, selected from at least one of alkylbenzene sulfonate, α-olefin sulfonate, α-sulfo monocarboxylic acid ester, fatty acid sulfalkyl ester, sulfosuccinate, alkyl naphthalene sulfonate, petroleum sulfonate, lignin sulfonate, and alkyl glycerol ether sulfonate, and the dosage is 0.2-2% of the weight of the carbon source powder.

[0011] For the purification and impurity removal, the acids used are any combination of hydrochloric acid, nitric acid or hydrofluoric acid, and the reaction conditions are: acid concentration of 1-20%, reaction temperature of 25-100°C, solid-liquid ratio of 1:2-10, and stirring time of 1-10 hours.

[0012] The inert atmosphere is protected by nitrogen, or it can also be argon, helium or xenon.

[0013] The high-temperature carbonization is carried out by heating to 1000-1600°C at a rate of 0.5-10°C / min and holding for 2-10 hours.

[0014] The post-treatment includes crushing, sieving, demagnetization, packaging, etc.

[0015] In the present invention, the sulfonate-type anionic surfactant can significantly enhance the wetting effect of the raw carbon powder, greatly shorten the dispersion time of the powder in water, effectively improve the efficiency of purification and impurity removal, and also obtain a precursor with lower ash content. The surfactant selected in the present invention is uniformly mixed with precursor 1 in the liquid phase to form a slurry. After adding the acid solution, the surfactant becomes ineffective and precipitates and layers with the carbon powder. Through pressure filtration, solid-liquid separation can be quickly achieved, and finally a mixture precursor 2 of carbon powder and sulfur-containing organic matter is obtained. During the high-temperature carbonization process, the sulfur-containing organic matter loses H and O, and C-S chemical bonds are formed on the surface of the carbon powder to obtain a sulfur-doped hard carbon negative electrode material.

[0016] The sulfur atom has a larger radius than the carbon atom, which can increase the interlayer spacing of the hard carbon material, provide a fast channel for lithium, sodium, and potassium ions, and is beneficial to the high-rate performance; in the C-S bond on the material surface, S has a stronger electronegativity, which acts on Li + / Na + / K + to generate inorganic compounds similar to Li2S / Na2S / K2S. During the first charge and discharge of the battery, it promotes the SEI component to mainly consist of inorganic salts LiF / NaF / KF, reducing the irreversible capacity loss caused by the formation of SEI to a certain extent, improving the first Coulombic efficiency of the hard carbon material, and the coin cell test results also prove this point.

[0017] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: The present invention uses a sulfonate-type anionic surfactant as an additive in the pickling process, which not only improves the wetting and dispersion efficiency of the precursor powder in water, but also significantly improves the purification and impurity removal effect, that is, reduces the ash content of the product; further, the formation of C-S bonds on the surface of the hard carbon material realizes S atom doping, increases the interlayer spacing of graphite microcrystals, obtains better rate performance, and promotes the SEI component to mainly consist of inorganic salts during the first charge and discharge of the battery, thereby improving the first cycle charge and discharge Coulombic efficiency and the reversible specific capacity of the material.
