Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of silicon cutting waste recycling technology, and particularly to a nano-silicon@SiO2 method. x / MXene composite anode material and its preparation method. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, advancements in silicon-based photovoltaic (PV) technology have significantly reduced power generation costs, making large-scale solar energy applications possible. However, the intermittency and volatility of solar power generation severely limit its further development. Therefore, the integration of PV power generation with advanced energy storage is considered the ultimate solution for future energy needs. Global PV power generation is growing at a rate exceeding 35% annually, leading to a steady increase in silicon wafer consumption. In the PV industry, silicon wafers are produced through diamond wire slicing of solar-grade silicon ingots. During the production process, approximately 35% of SoG-Si is cut into silicon cutting waste. Currently, my country's annual output of silicon cutting waste exceeds 400,000 tons, and the effective recycling of silicon cutting waste faces significant challenges.

[0003] The most common strategy for recycling silicon cutting waste is to use it directly as a high-purity silicon raw material. However, recent studies have recognized difficulties in melting and impurity removal from silicon cutting waste due to the naturally occurring ultrafine-grained amorphous silicon oxide layer. Silicon materials possess a high theoretical specific capacity (4200 mAh·g). -1 ), and the discharge potential is relatively low (for lithium / lithium + With its advantages such as a discharge potential of <0.5V and abundant reserves on Earth, silicon has become one of the most attractive anode materials for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), providing another value-added pathway for the recycling of silicon cutting waste. However, past research has mainly focused on traditional loose abrasive slurry sawing of waste silicon, while research on using current diamond wire-cut silicon waste is relatively limited.

[0004] With the increasing demand for high-energy-density energy storage, silicon is one of the most promising anode materials for lithium-ion batteries. However, the main challenge facing silicon-based anodes is their enormous volume expansion (approximately 300%), which causes silicon particles to fission or turn into powder, resulting in loss of contact between the active material and the conductor during lithiation / delithiation. Furthermore, the repeated formation and thickening of the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) layer and the low conductivity of silicon lead to rapid capacity loss, low initial coulombic efficiency (ICE), and poor electrochemical performance, which have become major limiting factors for silicon-based anodes. Therefore, this study investigates a nano-silicon@SiO2 anode. x The discovery of MXene composite anode materials and their preparation methods is of great significance for improving the initial coulombic efficiency and electrochemical performance of silicon-based anodes.
