Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of hard carbon technology, specifically relating to a bamboo-based and lignin-based hard carbon composite material, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, sodium-ion battery technology is undergoing rapid evolution and innovation. Benefiting from its advantages such as low cost, long cycle life, fast charging, environmental friendliness, excellent high and low temperature performance, and safety, sodium-ion batteries are continuously developing towards lower cost, higher energy density, and longer lifespan. Despite these advantages, sodium-ion batteries have a lower energy density than lithium-ion batteries, approximately 160Wh / kg, only two-thirds that of lithium iron phosphate batteries. This means that sodium-ion batteries store less energy per unit weight or volume, thus providing shorter driving ranges for sodium-electric vehicles.
[0003] The main reasons for the low energy density of sodium-ion batteries are: sodium ions have a larger ionic radius, affecting phase stability during the reaction process and resulting in slower ion transport and diffusion; sodium ions have a high mass-to-charge ratio, reducing the theoretical specific capacity of the material; and sodium has a high standard electrode potential. Given these reasons, the energy density of sodium-ion batteries can be improved by optimizing the battery structure and the energy density of the materials. A sodium-ion battery mainly consists of four parts: a positive electrode, a negative electrode, an electrolyte, and a separator. The structure and performance of the positive and negative electrode materials determine the overall sodium storage performance of the battery. The negative electrode material accounts for approximately 16% of the total battery mass and has a significant impact on the battery's energy density, which ultimately manifests as the battery's sodium storage capacity. The higher the compaction density of the negative electrode material, the greater the mass of active material that can be stored per unit volume, resulting in higher battery capacity and energy density.
[0004] Therefore, it is particularly important to improve the capacity of hard carbon anode materials by designing a low-cost, high-pressure anode material. Summary of the Invention

The water washing process includes: washing with deionized water multiple times until the filtrate is close to neutral; then filtration and drying at a temperature of 60-120°C for 6-24 hours.
[0035] In one embodiment of the present invention, when preparing bamboo-based coated hard carbon and lignin-based coated hard carbon, the purified material is soaked in a phosphoric acid solution. The parameters of the soaked material include: the concentration of phosphoric acid is 3-30%, the soaking time is 3-24 h, and the solid-liquid mass ratio is 1:1.2-3. The material is stirred while soaking, and after soaking, it is filtered and dried at a temperature of 60-120°C for 4-24 h.
[0036] In one embodiment of the present invention, when preparing bamboo-based coated hard carbon and lignin-based coated hard carbon, the parameters for uniformly mixing the soaked material with a modifier and then performing high-temperature coating carbonization under a protective atmosphere include: the modifier includes at least one of asphalt and resin, the mass of the modifier accounts for 1 to 10 wt% of the mass of the soaked material, and the mixing time is 0.5 to 3 hours.
[0037] The high-temperature coating carbonization is a high-temperature segmented carbonization process: the first stage is low-temperature carbonization, with a temperature of 800-1000℃, a heating rate of 4-6℃ / min, and a holding time of 1-2h; the second stage is high-temperature carbonization, with a temperature of 1200-1400℃, a heating rate of 1-2℃ / min, and a holding time of 2-4h; the third stage is cooling, with the temperature reduced to 800-1100℃, a cooling rate of 3-5℃ / min, and then naturally cooled to 25-30℃ under a protective atmosphere.

[0044] The aforementioned negative electrode sheet and battery utilize bamboo-based and lignin-based hard carbon composite materials.
[0045] The beneficial effects of this invention are:
[0046] 1. Environmentally Friendly Raw Materials: The bamboo-based and lignin-based biomass raw materials used in this invention are abundant, short-cycle, renewable, and green materials. They possess excellent characteristics such as wide distribution, rapid growth, early maturity, and high strength. They represent the largest biomass resources on Earth, with billions of tons of bamboo-based and lignin-based biomass raw materials produced annually through photosynthesis, ensuring a stable supply of raw materials. Furthermore, as sustainable and environmentally friendly materials, bamboo-based and lignin-based biomass raw materials exhibit low energy consumption and low emissions during their preparation process, aligning with current green development requirements. Therefore, using bamboo-based and lignin-based biomass raw materials to prepare hard carbon anodes not only improves energy efficiency but also helps reduce dependence on fossil fuels, promoting energy transition.
[0047] 2. The process of this invention is reasonable, including pretreatment, acidic oxidant pretreatment, pre-oxidation, pre-carbonization, pulverization, acid washing followed by water washing, acid soaking followed by filtration and drying, modifier modification, high-temperature coating carbonization (high-temperature segmented carbonization), and CVD carbon coating, as detailed below:
[0048] (1) Due to the complex and dense cell wall structure of lignocellulose in lignin-based biomass raw materials, it is difficult to dissolve and utilize. Therefore, the lignocellulose of this invention adopts a pretreatment method combining oxidant and acid. The green strong oxidant can oxidize and degrade lignocellulose into aldehydes, phenols, organic acids, and small molecule compounds, thereby achieving the separation of carbohydrates, cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin in lignocellulose. The acid can promote the decomposition of lignocellulose under mild reaction conditions without high temperature or high pressure, which reduces energy consumption, reduces the risk of side reactions, and improves the usability of lignocellulose. The synergistic effect of the oxidant and acid breaks down the connection between cellulose, lignin, and hemicellulose, achieving the separation of lignocellulose components. This is beneficial for reducing crystallinity and removing impurities by acid washing, increasing porosity, hydrolysis efficiency, and raw material utilization, thereby increasing the active sites of hard carbon composite materials, increasing interlayer spacing, and greatly improving the reversible specific capacity of the battery, ultimately improving energy density and specific capacity. This invention does not use a single pretreatment technology, but overcomes the shortcomings of a single method by combining the pretreatment of oxidant and acid, enhancing the pretreatment technology, and thus effectively improving the resource utilization efficiency of biomass raw materials.
[0049] (2) The biomass raw materials used in this invention are bamboo-based and lignin-based, with lignocellulose as the main component. Lignocellulose is mainly composed of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, with cellulose accounting for approximately 30-50%, lignin and hemicellulose accounting for 10-20% and 15-35%, respectively. Cellulose in lignocellulose forms microfibers, constituting a three-dimensional network framework of fiber cell walls, while hemicellulose and lignin fill the spaces between fibers and microfibers in the form of covalent bonds. Their unique structure, pore channels, and abundant aromatic carbon rings give them a significant advantage as precursors for hard carbon materials in sodium-ion batteries. However, lignocellulose hard carbon materials obtained through direct carbonization cannot exhibit good electrochemical performance due to their relatively low conductivity, cross-linking degree, and limited sodium ion storage sites. Therefore, this invention introduces oxygen-containing, hydroxyl, and carbonyl functional groups and enhances the cross-linking degree between lignocellulose molecules through ester groups by adding a low-temperature pre-oxidation process before pre-carbonization, generating a large number of disordered structures, expanding the carbon interlayer spacing, and promoting Na+ ion storage. + The transmission of gases during heating and the release of small molecule gases during heating induce the formation of nanopores within the amorphous carbon, significantly improving the electrochemical performance of hard carbon composite materials.
[0050] (3) The present invention uses phosphoric acid soaking, which can not only further dissolve and decrystalline cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin, but also introduce P element doping modification, thereby enhancing the reactivity and adding additional Na + The increased number of storage sites improves conductivity and wettability, thereby increasing the specific capacity of hard carbon anode materials.
[0051] (4) This invention does not employ the method of mixing first and then coating with a modifier for carbonization. Instead, it employs the method of coating and carbonizing the two materials separately with a modifier first, and then mixing the two carbonized materials. This is because different hard carbon precursors have different internal microstructures, pore sizes, pore structures, surface areas, and surface functional groups, resulting in different optimal coating ratios for each. The composite material obtained by coating and carbonizing the precursors separately and then mixing the carbonized precursors allows the synergistic effect of the two to fully utilize their respective advantages. This results in a more uniform and denser coating of the hard carbon precursor, while maintaining the high capacity of bamboo-based biomass and the high compaction of lignin-based biomass.
[0052] (5) The reason for the high-temperature segmented carbonization of the present invention: During the first stage of low-temperature carbonization, pyrolysis occurs, which rapidly releases a large number of organic molecules, which is conducive to the formation of a rich porous structure; During the second stage of high-temperature carbonization, the degree of graphitization can be improved and a large interlayer spacing can be retained, which is conducive to the insertion and extraction of sodium ions in the material, thereby improving the initial coulombic efficiency and reversible capacity. However, the heating rate in the high-temperature stage should not be too fast, otherwise it will easily cause insufficient volatilization of small molecules and increase the specific surface area; During the third stage of cooling, the temperature should be kept to decrease slowly, otherwise internal cracks will appear and the performance will be reduced.
[0053] (6) Compared with solid phase coating, the present invention uses CVD to perform carbon coating. High-temperature pyrolysis causes carbon source gas to be deposited on the surface and pores of bamboo-based and lignin-based hard carbon composite materials, resulting in uniform carbon material composition and dense structure. The coating layer can not only increase the conductivity of composite materials, but also reduce the decomposition of electrolyte on the electrode surface, and has good cycle characteristics.
[0054] 3. The powder compaction density of the bamboo-based and lignin-based hard carbon composite material of the present invention is 0.8900~1.2000 g / cm³. 3 When applied to negative electrode sheets and sodium-ion batteries, it can improve the energy density of sodium-ion batteries. Under charge and discharge tests at a current density of 0.1C, the initial charge specific capacity of sodium-ion batteries is greater than 330mAh / g, and the initial coulombic efficiency is greater than 90%.

[0072] S4. Use an air jet mill to pulverize the pre-carbonized material. After pulverization, the particle size D50 of the particles is controlled at 5μm to obtain pulverized material.
[0073] S5. Place the pulverized material in a 30% acid solution (HCl (hydrochloric acid) and HF (hydrofluoric acid) and react at 80°C for 12 hours. The solid-liquid mass ratio is 1:3. After purification, wash the material several times with deionized water until the filtrate is nearly neutral. Then filter the filtrate and place it in a drying oven at 80°C for 24 hours to obtain the purified material. It should be noted that a 30% concentration of hydrochloric acid and hydrofluoric acid is sufficient. The individual concentrations of hydrochloric acid and hydrofluoric acid are not key characteristics or affect the experimental results, and therefore will not be described in detail.
[0074] S6. Add 10% phosphoric acid to the purified material and soak it at room temperature while stirring. After soaking for 6 hours, filter it first and then place it in a drying oven at 80°C for 24 hours. The solid-liquid mass ratio is 1:2 to obtain the soaked material.

Add an appropriate amount of deionized water and stir for 8 hours until a uniform slurry is formed. Use a four-sided coating apparatus to evenly coat the slurry onto the surface of copper foil. Dry in a vacuum drying oven at 80℃ for 8 hours. Cut the Cu foil with active material into circular negative electrode sheets and transfer them to a glove box for later use.
[0080] The coin cell assembly was carried out in an Ar atmosphere glove box. The prepared bamboo-based and lignin-based hard carbon composite material was used as the negative electrode, and a 1.0 mol / L commercial electrolyte was used. The commercial electrolyte was prepared by adding NaPF6 to a volume ratio of EC:DMC = 1:1. Na metal sheets or sodium metal blocks were used as the counter electrode. The CR2032 coin cell was assembled, and then charge-discharge tests were carried out at a current density of 0.1C.
[0081] It should be noted that using Na metal sheets or sodium metal blocks as counter electrodes does not affect the final experimental results in this invention.

[0161] Table 1 Electrochemical performance of sodium-ion batteries
[0162]
[0163]
[0164] According to the test results of Examples 1-12 in Table 1, the present invention uses bamboo-based or lignin as biomass raw materials, which are pretreated with acidic oxidant, pre-oxidized and pre-carbonized, acid-washed and soaked, and then coated with high-temperature segmented carbonization. Finally, the bamboo-based and lignin-based coated carbonized materials are mixed to prepare a bamboo-based and lignin-based hard carbon composite material with high sodium storage capacity and compaction density.
[0165] Compared with Example 1, Example 3 has a lower concentration of formic acid and H2O2, while Example 2 has a higher concentration of formic acid and H2O2. The higher concentration of formic acid and H2O2 makes the connection between cellulose, lignin and hemicellulose more thoroughly broken, and the separation of each component more complete. This is beneficial to improving the carbon yield after subsequent acid washing and carbonization, thereby greatly improving the reversible specific capacity and compaction density, and ultimately improving the initial coulombic efficiency, specific capacity and energy density.
[0166] Compared with Example 1, Example 4 had a lower pre-oxidation temperature, which prevented the introduced oxygen-containing, hydroxyl, and carbonyl functional groups from forming good cross-linking effects with lignocellulose molecules. As a result, a large number of disordered structures were not generated, and the number of nanopores was small, leading to lower capacity and compaction density of the hard carbon composite material.
[0167] Compared with Example 1, Example 5 shows that the particle size of the pulverized material is larger, the flowability and compressibility of the powder particles are worse, the filling between powder particles is not tight, and the porosity between powder particles is large, which reduces the compaction density and ultimately leads to a lower capacity of the hard carbon material.
[0168] Compared to Example 1, Example 6 shows an increased concentration of phosphoric acid, which not only leads to greater dissolution and decrystalline formation of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, but also introduces more doped phosphorus, resulting in enhanced reactivity and additional Na+. + The increased number of storage sites improves conductivity and wettability, thereby increasing the specific capacity of hard carbon anode materials.
[0169] Compared with Example 1, Examples 7 and 8 use different amounts of modifiers to coat the bamboo-based and lignin-based materials after soaking. Compared with Example 1, Examples 9, 10, 11, and 12 use different composite ratios. Due to the different hard carbon precursors, their internal microstructure, pore size, pore structure, surface area, and surface functional groups are different, resulting in inconsistent optimal ratios for high-temperature coating carbonization and composite after coating carbonization. Coating and carbonizing the precursors separately can make the coating more uniform and dense, and the composite hard carbon material after coating carbonization can produce a synergistic effect to give full play to their respective advantages, maintaining both the high capacity of the bamboo-based material and the high compaction of the lignin-based material.
[0170] According to Table 1, compared with Examples 1-12, the bamboo-based and lignin-based hard carbon composite materials in Comparative Example 1 were not pretreated with acidic oxidants. The bonds between cellulose, lignin and hemicellulose in the biomass raw materials were mostly not destroyed, and the separation of each component was not well achieved. This was not conducive to subsequent acid washing and impurity removal and the utilization rate of raw materials. As a result, the active sites of the hard carbon composite materials were reduced, the interlayer spacing was reduced, and the initial coulombic efficiency, specific capacity and compaction density were ultimately reduced.
[0171] According to Table 1, compared with Examples 1-12, the bamboo-based and lignin-based hard carbon composite materials in Comparative Example 2 were not pre-oxidized. The lignocellulose hard carbon materials obtained by direct carbonization exhibited poor electrochemical performance due to their relatively low conductivity and crosslinking degree and fewer sodium ion storage sites.
[0172] According to Table 1, compared with Examples 1-12, the bamboo-based and lignin-based hard carbon composite materials in Comparative Example 3 did not undergo a phosphoric acid soaking process, and there was no further dissolution and decrystalline cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin, nor was P element doping introduced. This resulted in reduced reactivity, fewer storage sites, and reduced conductivity and wettability, thereby reducing the specific capacity of the hard carbon composite material.
[0173] According to Table 1, compared with Examples 1-12, the bamboo-based and lignin-based hard carbon composite materials in Comparative Example 4 changed the high-temperature segmented carbonization to one-step high-temperature carbonization. The release of organic molecules was insufficient, which was not conducive to the formation of a rich porous structure. It also could not improve the degree of graphitization and expand the interlayer spacing, which was not conducive to the insertion and extraction of sodium ions in the material, thus resulting in a decrease in capacity, initial coulombic efficiency and compaction density.
[0174] According to Table 1, compared with Examples 1-12, Comparative Examples 5 and 6 did not combine bamboo-based and lignin-based hard carbon materials, which prevented them from having a synergistic effect to fully utilize their respective advantages and prevented them from maintaining both the high capacity of bamboo-based materials and the high compaction of lignin-based materials.
[0175] According to Table 1 and Figure 2 Compared with Examples 1-12, the bamboo-based and lignin-based hard carbon composite materials in Comparative Example 7 were mixed first and then coated and carbonized. Because the hard carbon precursors are different, their internal microstructure, pore size, pore structure, surface area and surface functional groups are different, which makes the optimal coating ratio inconsistent. This results in uneven and non-dense coating of the mixed material, which cannot give full play to their respective advantages and make it possible to maintain both the high capacity of bamboo-based materials and the high compaction of lignin-based materials.
[0176] According to Table 1, compared with Examples 1-12, Comparative Example 8 did not have CVD coating, and Comparative Example 9 used VC mixed coating. Due to the uneven and non-dense coating, the electrical conductivity of its composite material was poor, resulting in low capacity and compaction.
[0177] according to Figure 1 The composite material exhibits two distinct characteristic peaks in the ranges of 25°–30° and 45°–50°, corresponding to the (002) crystal plane and the (101) crystal plane, respectively, indicating that the composite material of Comparative Example 1 and Example 1 is a bamboo-based and lignin-based hard carbon composite material.
