Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of sodium-ion battery energy storage, and specifically relates to a biomass hard carbon negative electrode material, a preparation method thereof, and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Due to the global climate change problem caused by the extensive use of fossil fuels, humans have made great efforts to find new energy storage and utilization technologies. Among the existing and efficient energy storage devices, secondary batteries are considered high-energy-density storage systems and are ideal choices for portable electronic devices, hybrid electric vehicles, and large industrial devices. Lithium-ion batteries occupy the main market of current secondary batteries. However, due to the limited lithium ore resources, the prices of lithium battery materials represented by lithium carbonate fluctuate greatly with the market. Compared with lithium, sodium resources have the advantages of rich reserves, wide distribution, and low price, and are expected to be used for large-scale energy storage.

[0003] In sodium-ion batteries, the negative electrode material plays an important role in storing sodium ions. Traditional graphite negative electrodes are difficult to be applied to sodium-ion batteries due to their low sodium storage capacity. Hard carbon materials are difficult to be graphitized even at temperatures above 2500°C. They have more pores and larger interlayer spacings inside, enabling sodium ions with larger ionic radii to freely intercalate and deintercalate, and thus have a higher sodium storage capacity. Moreover, hard carbon materials are widely sourced and low-cost, especially the hard carbon derived from biomass materials often has the property of being renewable, which has attracted the attention of researchers. Currently, reports on biomass-derived hard carbon materials mainly include Physalis peruviana shells, walnut shells, peanut shells, straw, etc. However, currently, sodium-ion batteries prepared from biomass-derived hard carbon materials all require complex hard carbon material preparation processes (such as complex pretreatment processes, organic matter coating and doping processes) to improve the performance of the prepared sodium-ion batteries, and it is difficult to meet the requirements of commercial sodium-ion battery materials for negative electrodes in large-scale production. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the above-mentioned defects and deficiencies existing in the prior art, and to provide a preparation method of a biomass hard carbon negative electrode material.

[0005] The second purpose of the present invention is to provide a biomass hard carbon negative electrode material prepared by the above-mentioned preparation method.

[0006] The third purpose of the present invention is to provide the application of the above-mentioned biomass hard carbon negative electrode material in the preparation of sodium-ion batteries.

[0007] The fourth purpose of the present invention is to provide a sodium-ion battery.

[0008] The above-mentioned purposes of the present invention are achieved by the following technical solutions:

[0009] The present invention first provides a method for preparing a biomass hard carbon anode material, comprising the following steps:

[0010] S1. Crushing and sieving the waste biomass, pretreating it with a 10-50 wt% organic acid solution to selectively remove hemicellulose while retaining cellulose and lignin, washing with water and drying to obtain a biomass hard carbon precursor;

[0011] S2. Performing pre-carbonization treatment on the biomass hard carbon precursor obtained in step S1 under an inert atmosphere to obtain a preliminary biomass hard carbon material;

[0012] S3. Sequentially performing alkali treatment and acid treatment on the preliminary biomass hard carbon material obtained in step S2, washing until neutral, drying, and performing carbonization treatment under an inert atmosphere to obtain a hard carbon anode material for sodium-ion batteries.

[0013] Wherein, the organic acid solution is a solution prepared by diluting the corresponding organic acid with deionized water, and wt% is w / w.

[0014] Biomass materials mainly include cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin components. In the present invention, selective removal of hemicellulose in different waste biomasses is achieved through pretreatment with an organic acid at an appropriate concentration while retaining cellulose and lignin. While maintaining the natural structure of the biomass, hemicellulose is removed as much as possible while retaining cellulose and lignin. The results show that after retaining cellulose and lignin and removing hemicellulose, a significant improvement in electrochemical performance can be promoted, thereby realizing the optimized regulation of the sodium storage performance of the biomass hard carbon anode material. Compared with inorganic acid pretreatment or without organic acid pretreatment, the performance of the sodium-ion battery assembled with the biomass hard carbon anode material prepared by organic acid pretreatment is improved. In particular, both the initial discharge capacity and the first Coulombic efficiency are significantly increased, and the specific capacity is high and the cycle stability is good. However, after pretreatment with a higher concentration of organic acid, cellulose in the biomass is retained, but more lignin is removed, and the performance improvement effect of the sodium-ion battery assembled with the biomass hard carbon anode material prepared is worse than that of pretreatment with a lower concentration of organic acid. Further, regulating the biomass components (selectively removing and retaining cellulose and lignin) through organic acid pretreatment to improve electrochemical performance (capacity, first-cycle Coulombic efficiency) is a general and effective method, which is suitable for optimizing the performance of hard carbon materials prepared from different biomasses. Although plant precursors have their own morphological distributions and are affected by their growth environments. Different precursors result in different proportions, distribution morphologies, and element ratios of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin in the biomass; after carbonization, the pore structures and distributions are different, and the layer spacings are different, ultimately leading to capacity differences. Although different biomasses exhibit different performances, selective removal of hemicellulose by organic acid pretreatment can improve the electrochemical performance of the biomass, but the improvement effects are different. The results of the present invention show that selective regulation of hemicellulose by pretreatment with an appropriate concentration of organic acid can be used as a universal strategy for optimizing the electrochemical performance of biomass hard carbon.

[0094] Test Example

[0095] The plant components of the biomass pretreated with organic acid in Examples 1-5 and pretreated in different ways in Comparative Examples 1-7 were determined. The contents of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin in the plant components were determined by the NREL method, and the measurement results are shown in Table 1. In addition, the assembled sodium-ion batteries in Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-7 were tested for their electrochemical performance. The sodium-ion battery was prepared by uniformly mixing the hard carbon negative electrode material and a binder (sodium carboxymethylcellulose) in a mass ratio of 9:1 using a small ball mill, and then adding an appropriate amount of deionized water and uniformly mixing to obtain an electrode slurry; the electrode slurry was coated on a current collector and vacuum-dried and then stamped to obtain a battery negative electrode sheet. The prepared battery negative electrode sheet was assembled with metallic sodium, a glass fiber separator, an electrolyte, a battery case, a gasket, a spring piece, etc. to form a sodium-ion battery. The test conditions were a current density of 50 mA / g and a voltage range of 0-3 V, and the test results are shown in Table 2.

[0097]

[0098]

[0099] Table 2 Electrochemical performance of the assembled sodium-ion batteries in Examples 1-5 and Comparative Examples 1-7

[0100]

[0101] As can be seen from Table 1, compared with the untreated organic acid (Comparative Examples 1-2, 6-7), after pretreatment with organic acid, the mass of hemicellulose in the biomass decreased significantly, while the masses of cellulose and lignin remained unchanged or decreased slightly. After pretreatment with high-concentration organic acid (Comparative Example 3) and inorganic acid (Comparative Examples 4 and 5), the masses of hemicellulose and lignin in the biomass decreased significantly. Therefore, the results show that pretreatment with an appropriate concentration of organic acid can selectively remove hemicellulose in different waste biomasses and retain cellulose and lignin, while inorganic acid and treatment with too high a concentration of organic acid cannot.

[0102] As can be seen from Table 2, the sodium-ion batteries assembled with the hard carbon anodes prepared in Examples 1-5 have excellent battery performance. Their initial discharge capacity is 286-346 mAh / g, the first Coulombic efficiency is 92-95%, and the cycling plateau capacity (2nd) (<0.1V) is 180-228 mAh / g. Comparing the hard carbon anodes prepared from the same waste biomass (Examples 1-3 vs. Comparative Examples 1-3, Examples 4-5 vs. Comparative Examples 6-7), the battery performance of the sodium-ion batteries assembled with the hard carbon anodes prepared by organic acid pretreatment is significantly higher than that of the sodium-ion batteries assembled with the hard carbon anodes without organic acid pretreatment. However, the improvement effect of the battery performance of the sodium-ion batteries assembled with the hard carbon anodes prepared by high-concentration organic acid pretreatment is not as good as that of low-concentration organic acid pretreatment. Inorganic acid pretreatment (Comparative Examples 4-5) cannot achieve selective removal of hemicellulose and is prone to destroying the natural structure of plants, resulting in hard carbon anodes with low capacity and Coulombic efficiency. Therefore, the above results show that regulating the biomass components by appropriate concentration of organic acid pretreatment (selectively removing and retaining cellulose and lignin) to improve the electrochemical performance (capacity, first-cycle Coulombic efficiency) is a general and effective method, which is suitable for optimizing the performance of hard carbon materials prepared from different biomasses.

[0103] The first charge-discharge capacity curves of the biomass hard carbon anode material for the sodium-ion battery prepared in Example 1 are as Figure 1 shown, indicating that the biomass hard carbon anode material for the sodium-ion battery has excellent cycling reversibility and a high plateau capacity. The high plateau capacity indicates that the material has a rich closed-pore structure for sodium storage (since the closed pores in hard carbon are the main sodium storage sites and the corresponding plateau capacity <0.1V; when the capacity at a voltage <0.1V is high, it can reflect that there are more closed pores in the hard carbon). Figure 2 It is the charge-discharge capacity and Coulombic efficiency curve diagram of the biomass hard carbon anode material for the sodium-ion battery prepared in Example 1, indicating its good cycling stability and high reversibility.

[0104] Figure 3 It is the XRD of the biomass hard carbon anode materials prepared in Example 1, Comparative Example 1, and Comparative Example 2. The shift of the characteristic peaks in the figure shows that the hard carbon obtained by organic acid treatment has a larger interlayer spacing. Combining the results in Table 1, it can be seen that the increase in the interlayer spacing of the biomass hard carbon anode material is beneficial to the insertion and extraction of sodium, improving the capacity of the sodium-ion battery prepared therefrom.

[0105] Figure 4Comparing the charge-discharge curves of the samples of Example 1 and Comparative Examples 4 and 5 after being treated with inorganic acids, it can be seen that the charge-discharge capacity of the hard carbon anode material treated with organic acids is higher than that of inorganic acids. Combining the results in Table 1, it shows that organic acids selectively remove the amount of hemicellulose in plants while the mass of cellulose and lignin remains unchanged or slightly decreases, constructing a microporous structure after sintering while retaining the original three-dimensional structure of the cellulose and lignin components, providing more sodium storage sites and higher capacity.

[0106] In summary, the selective removal of hemicellulose in plants can be achieved by treating with organic acids of appropriate concentration in the present invention, while retaining cellulose and lignin, which is beneficial to increasing the layer spacing and forming more micropores during the high-temperature carbonization process, promoting the improvement of electrochemical performance; compared with inorganic acid pretreatment, high-concentration organic acid pretreatment or without organic acid pretreatment, the performance of sodium-ion batteries assembled with biomass hard carbon anode materials prepared by organic acid pretreatment is improved, especially the initial discharge capacity and the first Coulombic efficiency are both significantly improved, and the specific capacity is high and the cycle stability is good. The selective regulation of hemicellulose by organic acids of appropriate concentration in the present invention can be used as a general strategy to optimize the electrochemical performance of biomass hard carbon.

[0107] The above embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention, rather than limitations on the implementation manners of the present invention. For those of ordinary skill in the art, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to list all implementation manners here.
