Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application belongs to the field of new energy materials technology, and in particular relates to a biomass-based hard carbon material and its preparation method, and a sodium-ion battery. Background Technology
[0002] As a main group element, sodium possesses similar physicochemical properties to lithium, and its abundant reserves and low cost have made sodium-ion batteries the best complement to lithium-ion batteries in large-scale energy storage in recent years. Hard carbon holds a similar position in sodium-ion battery anode materials as graphite in lithium-ion batteries; however, currently, high-performance hard carbon materials are mainly resin-based, whose high cost limits their commercialization. Biomass-based hard carbon, on the other hand, has broad commercial application prospects due to its widely available and inexpensive raw materials.
[0003] Currently, biomass-based hard carbon materials still suffer from low capacity and low initial coulombic efficiency. Due to the complex composition of biomass, the influence of each component on the carbon structure and performance is unclear. How to accurately modify the composition of biomass to control the pore structure and carbon layer spacing of the final carbon and improve the sodium storage performance of hard carbon has become a key issue. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In view of this, embodiments of this application provide a biomass-based hard carbon material, which aims to solve the problems of low capacity and low initial coulombic efficiency of existing biomass-based hard carbon materials.
[0005] The first aspect of this application provides a biomass-based hard carbon material, wherein the biomass-based hard carbon material has an irregular block shape and a microporous structure on its surface; wherein the size of the irregular block shape is 5-10 μm; and the pore diameter of the microporous structure is less than 1 μm.
[0006] The biomass-based hard carbon material has a microstructure characterized by short-range order and long-range disorder.
[0007] In one possible implementation of the first aspect, the biomass-based hard carbon material is prepared by using lignocellulose-containing biomass as a precursor, treating it with a 2%-10% hydrogen peroxide solution at a temperature of 25-80°C for 1-6 hours, controlling the pH of the solution to be 3-9, and then carbonizing it under an inert atmosphere after washing and drying.
[0008] A second aspect of this application provides a method for preparing the biomass-based hard carbon material described in the first aspect above, comprising:
[0009] The pretreated biomass containing lignocellulose was treated with 2%-10% hydrogen peroxide solution at 25-80℃ for 1-6 hours, and the pH of the solution was controlled at 3-9 to obtain the reaction solution.
[0010] After the reaction solution is filtered, the resulting powder is washed until neutral and then dried.
[0011] The dried powder is carbonized under an inert atmosphere to obtain biomass-based hard carbon anode material.
[0012] A third aspect of this application provides an electrode material, characterized in that the electrode material comprises a conductive additive, a binder, and the biomass-based hard carbon material described in the first aspect above.
[0013] A fourth aspect of this application provides a negative electrode sheet for a sodium-ion battery, the negative electrode sheet comprising a current collector, a conductive additive coated on the current collector, a binder, and the biomass-based hard carbon material described in the first aspect above.
[0014] A fifth aspect of this application provides a sodium-ion battery, the sodium-ion battery including the negative electrode sheet described in the fourth aspect above.
[0015] The beneficial effects of the embodiments in this application compared with the prior art are:
[0016] This application provides a biomass-based hard carbon material with short-range ordered and long-range disordered microstructure characteristics. Its morphology is an irregular block shape with microporous structure on the surface. The size of the irregular block is 5-10 μm, and the pore diameter of the microporous structure is less than 1 μm, which is much smaller than the pore diameter of existing hard carbon materials. Compared with existing hard carbon materials, this biomass-based hard carbon material can achieve rapid diffusion of sodium ions, which is beneficial to improving the rate performance of hard carbon.
[0017] Furthermore, this application also provides one method for preparing the aforementioned biomass-based hard carbon material, using widely available lignocellulose-containing biomass as raw material. The preparation process is simple and inexpensive. On one hand, by changing the pH, the selective oxidation of lignin and cellulose by hydrogen peroxide can be controlled, thereby controlling the pore structure of the hard carbon and directionally improving its plateau capacity and ramp capacity. On the other hand, by changing the reaction temperature, reaction time, and hydrogen peroxide concentration, the degree of oxidation can be controlled, thereby controlling the specific surface area of the hard carbon and improving the initial coulombic efficiency.
[0018] Furthermore, the sodium-ion battery using the biomass-based hard carbon material provided in the embodiments of this application has high capacity and initial coulombic efficiency, and stable cycle performance. Attached Figure Description

[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.
[0028] This application provides a biomass-based hard carbon material, which has an irregular blocky morphology and a microporous structure on its surface; wherein the size of the irregular blocky morphology is 5-10 μm; the pore diameter of the microporous structure is less than 1 μm; and the biomass-based hard carbon material has a microstructure characterized by short-range order and long-range disorder.
[0029] Optionally, the biomass-based hard carbon material uses lignocellulose-containing biomass as a precursor, is treated with 2%-10% hydrogen peroxide solution at 25-80℃ for 1-6 hours, controls the pH of the solution to be 3-9, and then carbonized under an inert atmosphere after washing and drying.
[0030] Optionally, the selection requirements for lignocellulose-containing biomass in this application are limited to biomass materials containing lignin and cellulose, such as one or more selected from bamboo, cork, coconut shell, walnut shell, poplar, apricot shell, lignin, cellulose, and tea oil shell. The selected biomass material is then dehulled and mechanically crushed; for example, bamboo powder can be obtained by drying and dehulling 2-3 year old bamboo, followed by mechanical crushing and passing through a 50-mesh sieve. Although this application uses bamboo as an example in specific embodiments, this should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this application. Those skilled in the art can also use one or more of other materials selected from cork, coconut shell, walnut shell, poplar, apricot shell, lignin, cellulose, and tea oil shell to replace bamboo and achieve the same effect.
[0031] This application also provides a method for preparing biomass-based hard carbon materials with high sodium storage capacity and high energy density, which has a simple preparation process, low cost, and adjustable platform capacity, including the following steps:
[0032] Step S1: Treat the pretreated biomass containing lignocellulose with a 2%-10% hydrogen peroxide solution at 25-80℃ for 1-6 hours, and control the pH of the solution to 3-9 to obtain the reaction solution.
[0033] In the embodiments of this application, pretreatment of biomass containing lignocellulose refers to removing impurities and sterilizing the biomass. As an example, the pretreatment method can be to crush the biomass into powder, pass it through a 50-mesh sieve, and then boil it in deionized water for 30 minutes.
[0034] In the embodiments of this application, pH conditions can be controlled by adding an acid or a base to the system solution. For example, the acid used to control pH can be selected from one or more of hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, acetic acid, citric acid, phosphoric acid, and nitric acid; the base used to control pH can be selected from one or more of potassium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, potassium carbonate, sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, and potassium bicarbonate. It is worth noting that pH control is particularly critical, as changing the pH can control the selective oxidation of lignin and cellulose by hydrogen peroxide, thereby controlling the pore structure of hard carbon and directionally increasing its plateau capacity and slope capacity. Therefore, the pH is preferably controlled between 3 and 7, more preferably 3.
[0035] In this embodiment, the control of reaction temperature, reaction time, and hydrogen peroxide concentration is also crucial. By changing the reaction temperature, reaction time, and hydrogen peroxide concentration, the degree of oxidation can be controlled, thereby controlling the specific surface area of hard carbon and improving the initial coulombic efficiency. Therefore, the reaction temperature is preferably controlled at 60-70°C, and since the temperature may fluctuate within ±5°C during the reaction, it is preferably controlled at 65±5°C; the reaction time is preferably controlled at 1-3 hours, more preferably 3 hours; and the concentration of the hydrogen peroxide solution is preferably controlled at 2%-6%, more preferably 6%.
[0036] Step S2: After the reaction solution is filtered, the resulting powder is washed until neutral and then dried.
[0037] Optionally, the above reaction solution is filtered, the powder is washed with deionized water until neutral, and then dried in an oven at 105°C until constant weight.
[0038] Step S3: The dried powder is carbonized under an inert atmosphere to obtain the biomass-based hard carbon anode material.
[0039] Optionally, the dried powder is placed in a tube furnace and protected with inert gas. It is then treated at 1100-1500℃ for 1-3 hours to carbonize the material. After cooling to room temperature, the carbon powder is crushed at high speed to obtain a biomass-based hard carbon material with an irregular blocky macroscopic morphology and a porous surface. The typical size of the irregular blocky material is 5-10 μm, and the pore diameter of the porous structure is less than 1 μm. This biomass-based hard carbon material has a microstructure characterized by short-range order and long-range disorder.
[0040] Optionally, the inert gas can be one or more of argon and nitrogen.
[0041] Optionally, the heating rate is 2 to 10 °C / min.
[0042] The carbonization temperature, time, and heating rate can all be set with reference to existing technology. Although the following specific embodiments use only a single parameter as an example, they should not be used to limit the scope of protection of this application. Those skilled in the art can adjust the setting of carbonization temperature, time, and heating rate according to existing technology.
[0043] The biomass-based hard carbon material provided in this application embodiment can be used to prepare electrode materials. Specifically, the electrode material includes conductive additives, binders, and the above-mentioned biomass-based hard carbon material.
[0044] The biomass-based hard carbon material provided in this application embodiment can be used to prepare the negative electrode sheet of sodium-ion battery, and further applied in sodium-ion secondary battery; specifically, the negative electrode sheet includes a current collector, a conductive additive coated on the current collector, a binder, and the above-mentioned biomass-based hard carbon material.
[0045] The selection of the conductive additives, binders, and current collectors can refer to existing technologies. For example, the conductive additives can be carbon materials, including one or more of carbon black, acetylene black, carbon fiber, conductive graphite, carbon nanotubes, and graphene; the binders can be one or more of polyvinylidene fluoride, sodium alginate, sodium polyacrylate, and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose; and the current collectors can be copper foil or aluminum foil.
