TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application relates to the technical field of sodium ion batteries, in particular to a sodium ion battery hard carbon negative electrode material and a preparation method thereof, and a sodium ion battery. BACKGROUND
[0002] At present, energy storage technologies mainly include physical energy storage, chemical energy storage and electrochemical energy storage. Among them, electrochemical energy storage technologies mainly include lithium ion batteries, sodium ion batteries and lead-acid batteries. Compared with lithium ion batteries, sodium ion batteries have the advantages of high abundance of sodium elements, low production cost, excellent high and low temperature performance and good safety, and are expected to become the main force of electrochemical energy storage.
[0003] In a sodium ion battery, the negative electrode material has a significant influence on the electrochemical performance of the sodium ion battery, therefore, developing a high-performance negative electrode material is of great significance to the commercialization of the sodium ion battery. Alloys, metal sulfides, metal oxides and carbon-based materials are common negative electrode materials for sodium ion batteries, which have attracted widespread attention. Among them, carbon-based materials have excellent comprehensive electrochemical performance and low cost, and have broad industrial application prospects. Carbon-based materials can be further divided into graphite and amorphous carbon (soft carbon and hard carbon), wherein hard carbon material has a complex structure, rich sodium storage sites and high capacity, and is one of ideal negative electrode materials.
[0004] However, the excessively complex and disordered microstructure of hard carbon and the relatively high cost compared with soft carbon hinder the further commercialization development of sodium ion batteries. Improving the sodium storage performance of hard carbon and reducing its production cost are important topics in the research of negative electrode materials for sodium ion batteries.
[0005] The structure of carbon material is closely related to the properties of the precursor. If the precursor is a thermoplastic macromolecule rich in H-deficient O, soft carbon material is easily formed by graphitization during carbonization, such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC), pitch, coal and aromatic compounds such as benzene. If it is a thermosetting material, the thermosetting precursor is rich in O-deficient H, and it is difficult to graphitize at high temperature and form hard carbon, such as glucose, sucrose and some biomass materials.
[0006] By contrast, the soft carbon precursor can be converted into hard carbon by pretreatment such as oxygenation or dehydrogenation during high-temperature calcination; and the soft and hard carbon precursors can be crosslinked in a certain proportion to prepare hard carbon with more excellent performance. The process of crosslinking soft and hard carbon has become a commonly used method in industry.
[0007] However, in the traditional process, there are a series of mixing steps before the soft and hard carbon cross-linking reaction, usually the powdery raw materials are first physically hot-pressed or isostatic pressed into blocks, then physically broken, and then cross-linked by fluidized bed oxidation reaction, the raw materials cannot achieve sufficient contact at the molecular or atomic level, resulting in that the subsequent cross-linking reaction only occurs locally between the surfaces of large particles of soft and hard carbon in the closely contacted areas. Moreover, the above-mentioned traditional process is complicated, the investment in hot-pressing or isostatic pressing and breaking equipment is large, and the energy consumption is also high, which brings high cost. Moreover, the cross-linking of the reaction raw materials is not sufficient, the areas not contacted by soft and hard carbon particles cannot occur sufficient cross-linking reaction, the uniformity and sufficiency of the cross-linking reaction are obviously insufficient, resulting in that in the subsequent high-temperature carbonization reaction, the soft carbon precursors not sufficiently cross-linked are carbonized to form a large number of graphitized regions, causing the specific capacity of the product to be low. SUMMARY
[0008] The purpose of the present application is to provide a sodium ion battery hard carbon negative material and a preparation method thereof, and a sodium ion battery, which have the characteristics of good uniformity, excellent electrochemical performance and simple process.
[0009] The present application can be realized by the following technical solutions:
[0010] The present application discloses a preparation method of a sodium ion battery hard carbon negative material, comprising the following steps:
[0011] S1, preparation of a precursor suspension: add pitch and glucose into an aqueous solution containing a dispersant and stir until they are uniformly dispersed, then add inorganic acid and graphitization inhibitor to form a precursor suspension;
[0012] S2, preparation of cross-linked precursor particles: use spray drying granulation on the precursor suspension in step S1, adjust the outlet temperature to a temperature interval, adjust the gas speed, make the mixed particles continuously rotate in high-speed and high-temperature air, and realize solid-phase oxidation of pitch and glucose by using oxygen in the air to obtain cross-linked precursor particles;
[0013] S3, high-temperature carbonization: carbonize the cross-linked precursor particles obtained in step S2 under a protective atmosphere to obtain solid-phase oxidized sodium ion battery negative hard carbon material.
[0014] In step S1, the mass ratio of asphalt in the two precursors is 10%-90%. If the asphalt ratio is higher than 90%, it will increase the difficulty of cross-linking, resulting in soft carbon with poor sodium storage capacity after high-temperature calcination; if the ratio is lower than 10%, the material cost is too high, which is not conducive to industrial production. The mass ratio of dispersant in the precursor suspension is 1-10%. If the dispersant ratio is higher than 10%, its organic structure will hinder the cross-linking of the precursor; if the ratio is lower than 1%, the asphalt cannot be uniformly dispersed, resulting in uneven cross-linking. The mass ratio of inorganic acid in the precursor suspension is 0.1-10%. If the inorganic acid ratio is higher than 10%, it will erode the structure of the carbon material, reducing the sodium storage capacity of the material; if the ratio is lower than 0.1%, it cannot provide an effective acidic environment to complete the cross-linking. The mass ratio of graphitization inhibitor in the precursor suspension is 0.1-10%. If the graphitization inhibitor ratio is higher than 10%, it will result in fewer graphitic domains in the final material, and will cause serious ash problems, reducing the sodium ion insertion capacity of the material; if the ratio is lower than 0.1%, the inhibition effect is weak, and soft carbon material is easily formed.
[0015] Further, in step S2, the conditions for spray drying are: outlet temperature 90-150℃, mixed particle rotation time 0.5-2h. If the outlet temperature is higher than 150℃, the precursor will carbonize during the spraying process, sticking to the instrument and causing loss of raw materials; if it is lower than 90℃, the material cannot form a spherical structure. If the rotation time is higher than 2h, the cross-linking effect will not be significantly improved, increasing the processing cost; if it is lower than 0.5h, the cross-linking cannot be fully carried out.
[0016] Further, in step S3, the conditions for high-temperature carbonization are: carbonization temperature 1000-1400℃, carbonization time 1-3h. If the carbonization temperature is higher than 1400℃ and the time is longer than 3h, it will result in too low interlayer spacing of the graphitic domain carbon layer, hindering the insertion of sodium ions; if the temperature is lower than 1000℃ and the time is shorter than 1h, it cannot form a stable carbon structure.
[0017] Further, in step S3, the protective atmosphere is one or more of argon, hydrogen, carbon monoxide, and nitrogen, and the gas flow range of the protective atmosphere is 50-150sccm. If the gas flow is greater than 150sccm, the material will be lost with the gas flow during high-temperature sintering due to the lightness of the carbon material; if the gas flow is less than 50sccm, it cannot provide an effective inert gas environment, and the carbon material is easily oxidized.
[0018] Further, the dispersant is one or more of polyvinyl alcohol, F127 polyether ester, and dextran.
[0019] Further, the inorganic acid is one or more of phosphoric acid solution, nitric acid solution, and boric acid particles.
[0020] Further, the graphitization inhibitor is a substance containing one or more of the elements of Nb, W, Mn, S, Cr, V, Mg, Ce, B, Al, Si, Ti.
[0021] Another aspect of the present application is to protect a sodium ion battery hard carbon anode material prepared by the above preparation method.
[0022] Another aspect of the present application is to protect a sodium ion battery using the above hard carbon anode material as the anode.
[0023] The present application is a sodium ion battery hard carbon anode material, its preparation method and sodium ion battery, which has the following advantages:
[0024] First, good uniformity. Dispersants are a class of surfactants that can convert bitumen from hydrophobic to hydrophilic, allowing it to mix uniformly with glucose, promoting the uniformity of soft and hard carbon precursor crosslinking. Spray drying not only provides a constantly updated oxidation atmosphere, but also provides a high-speed, high-temperature oxygen-containing air column that is conducive to the unfolding of bitumen and glucose molecular chains, making them less obstructive to each other and more uniform in crosslinking.
[0025] Second, excellent electrochemical performance. The acidic environment provided by the inorganic acid can protonate the hydroxyl groups of the glucose molecules, increasing their electrophilicity. In addition, under the action of the acid, the molecular chains of bitumen and glucose tend to unfold, exposing functional groups. Therefore, after using inorganic acid, the oxidation crosslinking of soft and hard carbon in the air atmosphere is strengthened, the graphitization process is inhibited, and the carbon chain structure is more stable; at the same time, the inorganic acid can also act as a pore-forming agent and a dopant, increasing the active sites for sodium ion storage. The graphitization inhibitor reacts with the hydroxyl groups on the bitumen molecules to form a -C-O-C structure, increasing the steric hindrance during graphitization and inhibiting the polymerization of adjacent fragments, thereby inhibiting the graphitization process and increasing the disorder of bitumen-based carbon materials, promoting hard carbonization. The graphitization inhibitor, in combination with the spray drying method, can fully disperse the inhibitor uniformly inside the particles, fully inhibit the graphitization of each particle, and greatly reduce the amount of inhibitor used, to less than 1% or even lower, reducing the impact of impurities on the final product. For some preferred graphitization inhibitors, the content can be further reduced to eliminate the need for subsequent ash removal, thereby simplifying the overall process.
[0026] Third, simple process. Spray drying can simultaneously achieve oxidation crosslinking, granulation, and drying, among other processes. This process does not require the complex operations of traditional processes such as mixing, granulation, drying, and re-heating for oxidation crosslinking, greatly simplifying the production process. The temperature control range of spray drying is wide, which is conducive to controlling the crosslinking at the appropriate temperature, avoiding the phenomenon of insufficient crosslinking at too low a temperature or excessive carbonization at too high a temperature.
[0027] Fourth, low cost. Because the process is simple, the energy consumption in the whole process is reduced; the addition of inhibitors and inorganic acid is complementary, synergistic effect, which can greatly improve the hard carbon efficiency, improve the utilization of raw materials, and reduce the production cost.
