Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of solid electrolytes, and in particular to a polysiloxane-based solid electrolyte with enhanced interface compatibility and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] Solid-state electrolytes, as a core component of lithium-ion batteries, have received widespread attention in recent years. They offer advantages such as improved battery safety and suppression of lithium dendrite growth, making them key materials for achieving high-energy-density batteries. However, existing solid-state electrolytes still have shortcomings in terms of interface compatibility, ionic conductivity, and thermal stability. Traditional solid-state electrolytes exhibit high interfacial impedance with electrode materials, leading to reduced battery charge-discharge efficiency. Simultaneously, the limited ion transport efficiency of solid-state electrolytes restricts battery power density and cycle stability. Furthermore, the chemical stability and mechanical properties of solid-state electrolytes at high temperatures need further improvement to meet the application requirements of batteries under extreme conditions. Therefore, developing novel solid-state electrolyte materials to improve their overall performance has become a current research hotspot. Summary of the Invention
[0003] In view of the technical problems existing in solid electrolytes, such as insufficient interfacial compatibility, limited ionic conductivity, and the need to improve thermal and chemical stability, this invention provides a method for preparing a polysiloxane-based solid electrolyte with enhanced interfacial compatibility, in order to solve these problems and improve the overall performance of solid electrolytes. Through innovative chemical modification and material composite strategies, this invention aims to achieve better electrolyte-electrode interface adhesion, improved ion transport efficiency, enhanced mechanical and chemical stability, and ensure reliability under wide voltage and high temperature environments, meeting the requirements of high energy density and high safety batteries.
[0004] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is:
[0005] A method for preparing a polysiloxane-based solid electrolyte with enhanced interface compatibility, the preparation method comprising the following steps:
[0006] S1: subjecting 2,3,7,8-phenazinetetramine hydrochloride to an amine protection reaction, then subjecting the reaction product to a substitution reaction with trialkylsilane bromide and alkyllithium, and finally subjecting the substitution reaction product to a Boc protection group removal reaction to obtain a phenazinetetramine derivative shown in structural formula I;
[0007] In the formula, R1 is an alkane group with 2 to 5 carbon atoms; R2 is an alkane group with 3 or 4 carbon atoms; R3 is a methyl group or an ethyl group;
[0008] S2: using the phenazine tetramine derivative obtained in step S1 as a first COF monomer and a second COF monomer containing an aldehyde group in the presence of a catalyst, heating and reacting, and forming trialkylsilane-grafted COF particles after precipitation and separation;
[0009] S3: The COF particles obtained in step S2 are uniformly mixed with polysiloxane, lithium salt and solvent by high-energy ball milling, and then coated on a substrate, and cured to obtain the polysiloxane-based solid electrolyte.
[0010] Step S1 of the present application achieves specific chemical modification of phenazine tetramine hydrochloride through amine group protection and deprotection steps, thereby not only enhancing interfacial adhesion but also significantly improving the interfacial compatibility between the electrolyte and the electrode material, thereby reducing interfacial impedance and improving ion transfer efficiency. Furthermore, the introduction of phenazine tetramine derivatives increases the mechanical strength and chemical stability of the electrolyte, helping to maintain the structural integrity of the battery during charge and discharge, and improving the battery's cycling stability.
[0011] Furthermore, step S2 of the present application forms trialkylsilane-grafted COF particles by reacting a phenazine tetramine derivative with an aldehyde-containing monomer under the action of a catalyst. The COF material has a highly ordered porous structure. These structures are linked by stable Schiff bases, thereby significantly enhancing the chemical and thermal stability, providing a guarantee for the application of batteries in high temperature environments. At the same time, the introduction of COF particles further enhances the mechanical strength of the solid electrolyte, optimizes the pore structure, and improves the diffusion rate and transmission performance of ions. The grafting of trialkylsilane further enhances the interfacial compatibility between COF particles and polysiloxane-based electrolytes, reduces the interfacial impedance, and improves the charge and discharge performance of the battery. In addition, the high specific surface area and porosity of COF particles provide more transmission channels for ions, thereby improving the charge and discharge efficiency and cycle stability of the battery.
[0012] In step S3 of this application, COF particles, polysiloxane, lithium salt, and solvent are mixed by high-energy ball milling to prepare a uniform composite material, which is then coated and cured on a substrate to form a polysiloxane-based solid electrolyte. This not only enhances the interfacial compatibility of the polysiloxane-based solid electrolyte but also improves the ionic conductivity of the electrolyte. In addition, the solid electrolyte of this application exhibits better thermal and electrochemical stability, allowing the battery to operate safely over a wider voltage range and in high-temperature environments.
[0013] As a preferred technical solution, the amino protection reaction is to react the 2,3,7,8-phenazinetetramine hydrochloride with BOC anhydride in the presence of an alkaline substance to obtain an N-Boc phenazinetetramine reaction product.
[0014] As a preferred technical solution, the alkaline substance is at least one of triethylamine, diisopropylethylamine, potassium bicarbonate, sodium bicarbonate, and sodium hydroxide.
[0015] As a preferred technical solution, the brominated trialkylsilane is at least one of (3-bromopropyl)triethoxysilane, 4-bromobutyltrimethoxysilane, and 3-bromopropyltrimethoxysilane.
[0016] As a preferred technical solution, the alkyl lithium is at least one of n-butyl lithium, sec-butyl lithium, tert-butyl lithium, isopropyl lithium, and ethyl lithium.
[0017] As a preferred technical solution, the Boc protecting group removal reaction is carried out under acidic conditions.
[0018] As a preferred technical solution, the acidic substance in the acidic condition is hydrochloric acid or trifluoroacetic acid.
[0019] As a preferred technical solution, the second COF monomer containing an aldehyde group is at least one of glyoxal, succinyl dialdehyde, terephthalaldehyde, furan dicarboxaldehyde, and glutaraldehyde.
[0020] As a preferred technical solution, the above-mentioned is at least one of LiClO4, LiPF6, LiBF4, LiTaF6, LiCF3SO3, LiN(SO2CF3)2, LiTFSI, and LiTf.
[0021] Another aspect of the present invention is to provide a polysiloxane-based solid electrolyte with enhanced interface compatibility, wherein the polysiloxane-based solid electrolyte is prepared using the above-mentioned method for preparing a polysiloxane-based solid electrolyte with enhanced interface compatibility.
[0022] Beneficial effects of the present invention:
[0023] The present invention's method for preparing a polysiloxane-based solid electrolyte with enhanced interfacial compatibility introduces a phenazine tetramine derivative to form a COF structure, which not only achieves chemical bonding between the electrolyte and electrode materials but also significantly improves interfacial adhesion and ion transport efficiency. This design enhances the electrolyte's mechanical strength and chemical stability, as well as its thermal stability and electrochemical window, helping to improve the overall performance and safety of the battery.
[0024] In general, the polysiloxane-based solid electrolyte of the present invention not only exhibits excellent interface compatibility and ionic conductivity, but also ensures application reliability in a wide voltage and high-temperature environment. It has strong overall comprehensive performance and can meet the long-term durability and stability requirements of high-energy density and high-safety batteries. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
