Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of electrode material preparation, and specifically relates to a covalent organic framework material based on polybenzimidazoles, a preparation method and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Since the beginning of the 21st century, science and industry have rapidly advanced worldwide, leading to a growing demand for energy. The development of renewable clean energy sources, such as wind, hydrogen, and solar, has become an inevitable requirement for human progress. However, these renewable energy sources lack sustainable and stable access or are difficult to transport, hindering their large-scale application. Using energy storage devices to store, convert, and integrate these renewable energy sources into the national power grid is a key solution to this problem.

[0003] Aqueous zinc-ion batteries are considered to be large-scale energy storage devices with good development prospects due to their low cost, eco-friendliness, and high safety. Metallic zinc has a large theoretical specific capacity (820 mAh g -1 ) and a low redox potential (-0.76V). Therefore, aqueous zinc-ion batteries are expected to achieve higher energy density. The most commonly used electrode materials for zinc-ion batteries are inorganic electrode materials. However, most inorganic materials contain transition metals, which are resource-scarce, difficult to prepare, and environmentally unfriendly, making them difficult to recycle and reuse. Therefore, scientists have turned their attention to green and environmentally friendly organic electrode materials.

[0004] Organic materials have the characteristics of high specific energy, designability, economy and environmental friendliness, which give them many advantages in the application of battery electrode materials. When metal ions are inserted and removed from organic molecular materials, the molecular structure tends to be stable, and there is no restriction on the type of metal ions, which is very beneficial for the cycle stability of the battery over a long period of time. Organic electrode materials usually adopt electron-deficient systems, and common functional groups include carbon-nitrogen double bonds and carbon-oxygen double bonds. The structure of organic materials can also be precisely molecularly designed, which is very important for improving the performance of rechargeable aqueous zinc-ion batteries. Therefore, the design and development of organic electrode materials with multiple active sites and structural diversity is crucial for the construction of energy storage devices with high capacity, long cycle life and high energy density.
