[0048] Specifically, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0049] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a negative electrode material, which includes WO x -W2C heterojunction nanoparticles and MXene material;

[0050] The MXene material has an accordion-like layered structure, and the WO x -W2C heterojunction nanoparticles are loaded on the surface of the MXene material and between its layered structures.

[0051] In the present invention, the MXene material in the negative electrode material is a novel two-dimensional material, which has excellent electrical conductivity, excellent mechanical properties and adjustable layer spacing. Its layered structure is used as a conductive support, significantly enhancing the electron conductivity, restricting the volume change of WO x -W2C, and preventing WOx -W2C pulverization attenuation. The two-dimensional structure of MXene is beneficial to the rapid diffusion of ions and the effective transport of charges, improving the ion diffusion rate and charge-discharge performance of the battery.

[0052] WO in the anode material x The surface contains abundant oxygen vacancies, defects, and tungsten ions with different valence states. These characteristics make WO x have a strong adsorption capacity for Na + . When Na + migrates to the electrode surface in the electrolyte, WO x can quickly and effectively capture these ions, forming a stable heterointerfacial layer, thereby improving the cycle stability and rate performance of the battery; the W2C material has high conductivity, which not only provides a fast channel for electron transport but also enhances the overall structural stability of the composite material. This enables electrons to be quickly transported throughout the electrode material during charge and discharge, reducing resistance losses and improving energy conversion efficiency. When the WO x and W2C are combined in the present invention, the interfacial effect between them will generate a large number of binding sites, which can serve as both the adsorption centers for Na + and the channels for electron transfer. In addition, due to the difference in the electronic structures between WO x and W2C, an internal built-in electric field may be formed at the interface, further promoting the migration and insertion / extraction processes of Na + .

[0053] The anode material of the present invention combines the complementary advantages of WO x -W2C and MXene, showing a high reversible specific capacity (the capacity is 673.3 mA h g -1 after 500 cycles at 0.5 A g -1 ) and excellent ultra-long cycle stability (the capacity is 492.4 mA h g -1 after 10,000 cycles at 8 A g -1 , and the capacity decay per cycle is only 0.002%), which can significantly improve the electrochemical performance of sodium-ion batteries.

[0054] Preferably, the WO x -W2C heterojunction nanoparticles have an amorphous / crystalline heterointerfacial layer. The amorphous / crystalline (A / C) heterointerfacial layer can achieve the optimization of the electronic structure, improve the adsorption capacity of Na + ; in addition, it induces the generation of abundant local built-in electric fields, significantly improving the charge transfer ability and promoting the reaction kinetics.

[0055] In the embodiment of the present invention, WO x-W2C heterojunction nanoparticles include tungsten oxide (WO x ), and tungsten carbide (W2C), where x is from 0.5 to 2. Exemplarily, x is any value among 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2 or any value within the range formed by any two of the above values.

[0056] In the embodiments of the present invention, the chemical formula of the MXene material is M n+1 X n T y , where M is at least one of the transition metal elements Ti, V, Nb, Cr, Sc, Mo, Y, Zr, Ta, W, Hf, X is the element C and / or N, and T y is at least one of the surface functional groups -O, -Cl, -OH, -F, and n is the number of layers, and n is selected from 1, 2 or 3.

[0057] In the specific embodiments of the present invention, the MXene material can be Ti3C2T y , V4C3T y , Ta4C3T y , Nb4C3T y , Mo2C3T y at least one of them.

[0058] Preferably, the molar ratio of WO x -W2C heterojunction nanoparticles to the MXene material is (2 - 6):(4 - 8). Exemplarily, the molar ratio of WO x -W2C heterojunction nanoparticles to the MXene material is any value among 1:4, 3:7, 1:2, 2:3, 3:4, 1:1, 3:2 or any value within the range formed by any two of the above values. When the proportion of WO x -W2C heterojunction nanoparticles is too small, the heterojunction effect is not significant. At the same time, the insufficient addition of WO x -W2C nanoparticles results in the inability to exert the modification effect on the MXene material; when the proportion of WO x -W2C heterojunction nanoparticles is too large, WO x -W2C nanoparticles cause the overall dispersibility of the material to deteriorate, affecting the uniformity and stability of the material.

[0059] Preferably, in the WO x -W2C heterojunction nanoparticles, the molar ratio of WO x to W2C is (1.5 - 5):(3.5 - 5). Exemplarily, the molar ratio of WO x to W2C is any value among 1.5:5, 1:2, 1:1, 1.5:3.5, 5:3.5 or any value within the range formed by any two of the above values. When WOx When the proportion is too small, the heterojunction is not completely formed, affecting the catalytic and stability of the material. At the same time, too little WO x affects the antioxidant property of the material; when the proportion of WO x is too large, the conductivity of the material decreases, affecting the electrochemical performance of the material.

[0060] Preferably, the crystallinity of the WO x -W2C heterojunction nanoparticles is 55% - 85%. Exemplarily, the crystallinity of the WO x -W2C heterojunction nanoparticles is any value among 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85% or any value within the range formed by any two of the above values. When the crystallinity is lower than 55%, the hardness and strength of the material become poor; when the crystallinity is higher than 85%, the material becomes brittle and hard, reducing the toughness and plasticity of the composite material.

[0066] S2. In an inert gas atmosphere, subject precursor C to Joule heating treatment to obtain an MXene material loaded with amorphous WO x -W2C heterojunction nanoparticles, denoted as A-WO x -W2C / MXene.

[0067] In step S1, under the action of the reducing agent, the tungsten source undergoes a reduction reaction to generate low-valence tungsten oxides (WO x ), carbides (W2C); among them, MXene participates in the reaction as a carrier or catalyst, and forms a new complex with the above reduction reaction products. The reaction equations of WO x and W2C are as follows:

[0068] (NH4)2WO4 + reducing agent → WO x

[0069] (NH4)2WO4 + reducing agent + CH4 → W2C. (Condition: high-temperature heating)

[0070] Preferably, the molar ratio of the pH regulator, the first reducing agent, the MXene material, the tungsten source, and the second reducing agent is (1.5 - 3.5):(6 - 10):(2 - 4):(1 - 4):(0.5 - 2). Exemplarily, the molar ratio of the pH regulator, the first reducing agent, the MXene material, the tungsten source, and the second reducing agent is any value among 2.5:10:4:1:1, 1.5:10:2:4:0.5, 3.5:6:4:1:2, 2:5:3:2:1 or any value within the range formed by any two of the above values.

[0071] In the embodiments of the present invention, the pH regulator includes at least one of sodium sulfite (Na2SO3), sodium bisulfite (NaHSO3), sodium carbonate (Na2CO3), sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3), acetic acid (CH3COOH).

Preferably (NH4)2WO4 because (NH4)2WO4 has more excellent reactivity and selectivity, can better meet the process requirements, and improve the yield and purity of the product.

[0074] In an embodiment of the present invention, the second reducing agent includes at least one of hydroxylamine hydrochloride (NH2OH·HCl), sodium bisulfite (NaHSO3), ascorbic acid (C6H8O6), hydroxylamine sulfate (H8N2O6S), and hydroxylamine nitrate (NH2OH·HNO3). The above-mentioned second reducing agent has strong reducibility and nucleophilicity and can participate in various chemical reactions to help promote the reduction of tungstate ions (such as WO4 2- ), and stabilize the dispersion of MXene. NH2OH·HCl is preferred because NH2OH·HCl has the characteristics of stable chemical properties, strong reducibility, high reactivity, good solubility, and easy preparation and purification.

[0075] Preferably, in step S1, the temperature of the hydrothermal reaction is 200 - 400 °C. Exemplarily, the temperature of the hydrothermal reaction is any value among 200 °C, 250 °C, 300 °C, 350 °C, 400 °C or any value within the range formed by any two of the above values.

[0084] Preferably, in step S3, the cooling rate of the annealing treatment is 1-5 °C min -1 . Exemplarily, the cooling rate of the annealing treatment is 1 °C min -1 , 2 °C min -1 , 3 °C min -1 , 4 °C min -1 , 5 °C min -1 or any value within the range formed by any two of the above values.

HF is preferred because HF has selectivity for the etching of the MAX phase and can preferentially select the M—A bond with weaker bond energy, so that the M-X layer connected by A atoms is gradually separated to generate the corresponding MXenes material; in addition, the HF etching method has been widely used in the etching of various MAX phases.

[0089] Preferably, the mass percentage concentration of the etching solution is 20% - 60%. If the concentration range is too low (less than 20%), the etching effect is insufficient and the etching rate becomes slow, increasing the preparation cost and time; if the concentration is too high (more than 60%), the etching effect is too strong, which may lead to over-etching of MXene and damage its crystal structure and properties. The optimal choice is 40%. After the concentration exceeds 40%, HF will start to evaporate and form gas, which not only increases the volatile loss during the preparation process, but also may cause corrosion and pollution to the experimental environment and equipment.

[0091] In the embodiments of the present invention, the stirring time is 12 - 24 h to ensure that the MAX phase fully reacts with the etchant in the etching solution and is converted into MXene material.

[0171] Test Example:

[0172] I. Preparation of the battery:

[0173] (1) Preparation of the negative electrode sheet:

[0174] The negative electrode sheets were prepared using the negative electrode materials prepared in the examples and comparative examples. The process for fabricating the negative electrode sheets was as follows: The prepared negative electrode material, conductive agent acetylene black, and binder polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) were mixed uniformly at a ratio of 7:2:1 to form a mixture. Solvent N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) was added to the above mixture, and stirring was continued until a homogeneous slurry was formed. The solid content of the slurry was 50%. The slurry was uniformly coated on the current collector copper foil using a coating device, and the coating thickness was 150 nm. The coated current collector was placed in a drying device for drying treatment.

[0175] (2) Assembly of sodium-ion coin half-cells:

[0176] The prepared negative electrode sheet was used as the working electrode, a sodium metal sheet was used as the reference electrode, Whatman GF / D glass fiber was used as the separator, and 1 mol L -1 NaPF6 / DIGLYME (DIGLYME is diethylene glycol dimethyl ether, which is the solvent) was used as the electrolyte, and 100 μL was added dropwise. The half-cell was assembled in the order of the positive electrode shell, negative electrode sheet, separator, sodium sheet, gasket, spring piece, and negative electrode shell. The assembled half-cell was clamped on a sealing machine with insulating tweezers for sealing treatment. Finally, the sealed battery was taken out of the glove box and left to stand for 12 hours to allow the electrolyte to fully infiltrate before performing relevant electrochemical tests.

[0177] II. Performance testing of the battery:

[0178] (1) First-cycle capacity test:

[0179] A sodium-ion coin half-cell was taken and subjected to a first-cycle capacity test under the test conditions of a current density of 0.5 A g -1 at 26 °C, a charging cut-off voltage of 3.0 V, and a discharging cut-off voltage of 0.01 V to obtain the first-cycle discharge specific capacity and the first-cycle Coulombic efficiency.

[0180] (2) 8 A g -1 Cycle life test:

[0181] A sodium-ion coin half-cell was taken and subjected to a cyclic test at a current density of 8 A g -1 at 26 °C (charging cut-off voltage 3.0 V, discharging cut-off voltage 0.01 V) to obtain the number of cycles and the capacity retention rate at a current density of 8 A g -1

[0182] (3) Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy test:

[0183] An electrochemical impedance spectroscopy test was performed on the sodium-ion coin half-cell using a Letpub electrochemical workstation at a test frequency of 0.01 Hz to 100 kHz to obtain the charge transfer resistance of the new battery.

[0184] (4)Galvanostatic Intermittent Titration Technique Test:

[0185] The sodium-ion button half-cell was tested using a Neware battery test system. At 26 °C, the galvanostatic intermittent titration technique test was carried out (charging cut-off voltage 3.0 V, discharging cut-off voltage 0.01 V) to obtain the sodium-ion diffusion coefficient of the new battery.

[0186] Table 1 Performance Comparison of Half-Cells

[0187]

[0188] In Examples 1-7, the addition of MXene significantly improved the conductivity of the material and reduced the resistance of the battery. Secondly, the two-dimensional structure of MXene is beneficial to the rapid diffusion of ions and the effective transmission of charges, improving the ion diffusion rate and charge-discharge performance of the battery.

[0189] Among them, in Examples 1-5, the synergistic effect of amorphous / crystalline WO x -W2C and MXene provides more active sites and a more stable structure, enabling the anode material to maintain excellent performance during the battery cycle.

[0190] In Example 6, since WO x -W2C is an amorphous material, the amorphous structure leads to slightly poor structural stability, making the material more likely to undergo structural changes during the charge-discharge cycle, and the cycle life of the battery is worse than that of Examples 1-5.

[0191] In Example 7, WO x -W2C is a crystalline material. The crystalline structure will limit the rapid diffusion of ions to a certain extent because the diffusion path of ions in the ordered structure may be restricted by the lattice. During the battery cycle, the crystalline structure may be more stable, but it may cause lattice fatigue and damage to a certain extent due to the repeated insertion and extraction of ions. In terms of resistance, the conductivity of the crystalline structure is usually high, but the resistance also increases due to the presence of grain boundaries. The cycle life of the battery is worse than that of Examples 1-6.

[0192] In Comparative Example 1, the absence of MXene will significantly reduce the conductivity of the material and increase the resistance of the battery. At the same time, as a high-performance two-dimensional conductive material, MXene can also provide structural support and stability. Its absence may cause the material to easily undergo structural changes during the battery cycle, thus affecting the cycle life of the battery. In terms of ion diffusion, the absence of MXene may also lead to a decrease in the ion diffusion rate.

[0193] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the principle of the present invention, several improvements and modifications can be made, and these improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
