Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of secondary battery materials, and in particular to a composite sodium supplement material, a sodium supplement positive electrode and a sodium ion battery. Background Art

[0002] Lithium-ion batteries are widely used in 3C, electric vehicles, power tools and other products due to their many advantages such as high energy density, long cycle life and no memory effect. However, the limited reserves of lithium metal on the earth will restrict the long-term application of lithium batteries. Sodium and lithium are both alkali metal elements. They have similar chemical properties and applications in many aspects. Compared with lithium metal, sodium metal is abundant in the earth's crust, and its mining and utilization are relatively simple and low in cost. Therefore, sodium-ion batteries have the potential to become a substitute for lithium-ion batteries. However, during the first charge and discharge process of sodium-ion batteries, the electrolyte will be reduced and decomposed on the surface of the negative electrode to form a solid electrolyte interface film (SEI), which will permanently consume part of the sodium ions from the positive electrode, resulting in a low coulombic efficiency (ICE) of the first cycle, reducing the capacity and energy density of sodium-ion batteries. On the other hand, during the cycle storage of the battery, the consumption of active sodium will also cause the battery capacity to decay, further reducing the battery life.

[0003] In the related art, in order to solve the above problems, it can be solved by additionally supplementing active sodium. At present, there are mainly two ways of supplementing sodium at the positive electrode and supplementing sodium at the negative electrode. Among them, supplementing sodium at the negative electrode is less used due to low safety and other reasons, while supplementing sodium at the positive electrode is more commonly used. However, simply supplementing sodium at the positive electrode of sodium-ion batteries also has shortcomings: given that one of the reasons for the attenuation of cyclic capacity is the consumption of active sodium by SEI reforming and repair, simply supplementing sodium at the positive electrode cannot improve the stability of SEI and cannot reduce the consumption rate of active sodium.

[0004] Therefore, it is of great significance to solve the problem that the current positive electrode sodium supplement materials cannot improve the stability of SEI and provide a composite sodium supplement material that can improve the stability of SEI and reduce the cycle attenuation rate.

[0111] Performance Testing

[0112] Gram Capacity Test

[0113] Ten sodium ion secondary batteries in the comparative example and the example were taken, and charged at room temperature at a constant current of 0.1C until the voltage reached 3.7V, and further charged at a constant voltage of 3.7V until the current was lower than 0.05C. Then, they were discharged at a constant current of 0.1C until the voltage reached 2.5V.

[0114] Cyclic performance test

[0115] Take 10 sodium ion secondary batteries prepared in the comparative example and the example, and repeatedly charge and discharge the lithium sodium ion secondary batteries through the following steps, and calculate the cycle capacity retention rate of the sodium ion secondary batteries: in an environment of 45°C, perform the first charge and discharge, perform constant current and constant voltage charging at a charging current of 0.1C (i.e., the current value of completely discharging the theoretical capacity within 10h) until the upper limit voltage is 3.7V, and then perform constant current discharge at a discharge current of 1C until the final voltage is 2.5V, and record the discharge capacity of the first cycle; then perform 200 charge and discharge cycles, and record the discharge capacity of the 200th cycle.

[0116] Cycle capacity retention rate C200=(discharge capacity at the 200th cycle / discharge capacity at the first cycle)×100%.

[0117] The test data is shown in Table 2:

[0120] From Table 1 and Examples 1-3, it can be seen that different ratios of sodium-supplementing and magnesium-supplementing materials within the scope of the present invention can also achieve similar effects; at the same time, Example 2 illustrates that further increasing the sodium-supplementing material cannot further increase the capacity and improve the lifespan.

[0121] It can be seen from Table 1, Example 1 and Examples 4-8 that one of the different sodium supplementation + lithium supplementation / magnesium supplementation / zinc supplementation / calcium supplementation / potassium supplementation materials can achieve similar effects.

[0122] It can be seen from Table 1, Example 1 and Examples 9-13 that the combined supplementation of sodium supplementation + lithium supplementation / magnesium supplementation / zinc supplementation / calcium supplementation / potassium supplementation can achieve better results.

[0123] It can be seen from Table 1, Example 1 and Comparative Examples 2-4 that when the content of sodium supplement and magnesium supplement is too high, the active material of the battery cell decreases, and the gram capacity of the battery cell will deteriorate.

[0124] From Table 1, Example 1 and Comparative Example 1, Comparative Examples 5-6, it can be seen that simple magnesium supplementation can also replenish SEI to consume active Li and improve SEI, thereby improving lifespan; however, the method of combined sodium supplementation + magnesium supplementation is better than simple sodium supplementation or simple magnesium supplementation, and is better than no supplementation.

[0125] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present invention, and the description thereof is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary technicians in this field, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, which all belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
