Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the field of sodium ion batteries, and relates to a sodium ion battery electrode material, in particular to a phosphoric pyrophosphate composite polyanion compound electrode material, a preparation method and application of the electrode material in a sodium ion battery electrode material. BACKGROUND
[0002] Developing clean and renewable energy has become an important strategy for the development of countries around the world. In order to realize the continuous and stable integration of renewable energy into the power grid system, it is necessary to develop supporting energy storage technology. Lithium ion batteries are widely used in large-scale energy storage fields due to high energy density and long cycle life. However, in recent years, the limitation of lithium source has led to high prices of lithium ion battery cathode materials. Sodium is more abundant and more evenly distributed in the earth's crust, so it has a much lower price. Sodium ions and lithium ions have similar physical and chemical properties and storage mechanisms. Therefore, sodium ion batteries have great application potential in user-side energy storage and large-scale energy storage fields. The cathode material is one of the key components that determine the performance of sodium ion batteries, so designing a cathode material with high specific capacity and high stability is the key to realizing the practicality of sodium ion batteries in large-scale energy storage.
[0003] Polyanion sodium ion battery cathode materials such as phosphoric pyrophosphate iron (manganese vanadium) sodium have become the preferred cathode material for sodium ion batteries due to their advantages of structural stability, high safety, high redox potential, etc. In this structure, the oxidation and reduction potentials of manganese ions and vanadium ions are high, which can improve the overall charge and discharge voltage of the material, thereby improving the energy density of the sodium ion battery full cell. However, manganese ions and vanadium ions undergo a Jahn-Teller distortion process during charging and discharging, which causes a series of adverse changes in the crystal structure at the level of sodium ion diffusion channels, transition metal dissolution, and alkali metal ion and transition metal ion mixing, thereby causing problems such as decreased rate performance and poor cycle stability. SUMMARY
[0004] In view of the defects of existing sodium ion battery cathode materials, the application provides a novel phosphoric pyrophosphate composite polyanion compound. The co-doping of manganese ions, vanadium ions and other transition metal ions precisely regulates the cathode cell structure, improves the redox potential of the material, and improves the ionic and electronic conductivities. By using different types of carbon sources and reducing agents to construct a good carbon coating layer interface, the dissolution behavior of manganese ions during the cycle process is inhibited, and the sodium ion transmission rate is improved. Therefore, the rate performance and cycle stability of the material are improved as a whole.
[0005] ADVANTAGEOUS EFFECTS

[0247] Conclusion
[0248] A novel structure of phosphoric acid pyrophosphate composite polyanion compound and a preparation method thereof are provided in the present application. By accurately controlling the ratio of iron, manganese, vanadium and transition metal ions, the redox potential of the material is improved, the ionic conductivity and electronic conductivity of the material are improved, and the unit cell structure is stabilized. Therefore, the actual gram capacity, rate performance and cycle stability of the material in the application process as a sodium ion battery positive electrode material are further improved. The prepared Na4Fe 0.65 Mn 1.75 V 0.3 Cr 0.05 Al 0.05 (PO4)2P2O7@C has a discharge gram capacity of 156 mAh / g at 0.2C and a median voltage of 3.7V. The discharge gram capacity is 122 mAh / g at 1C and 109 mAh / g at 5C. The capacity retention rate is as high as 90% after 200 cycles of charging and discharging at 1C.
[0249] The doping of transition metal sites (iron, manganese, vanadium) in the unit cell structure has a great influence on improving the ionic conductivity and electronic conductivity of the material, stabilizing the unit cell structure, and reducing the band gap of the material. By appropriate doping, such as Cr 3+ (containing unpaired electrons), Al 3+(Al-O covalent bond stable cell structure) can help the reversible electrochemical de-intercalation of inert sodium ions in the structure, realize multi-electron transfer of more than three electrons, and improve the specific capacity and cycle stability of the material. However, excessive transition metal site doping will reduce the redox active site in the electrochemical process, resulting in a decrease in specific capacity. Through the examples and comparative examples in the present application, it is found that when Na4Fe 3-x-1.5y-z Mn x V y A z In the structure of (PO4)2P2O7@C, when x is 1.75, y is 0.3, and z satisfies 0.25≥z≥0.1, the prepared material has excellent rate performance and capacity retention rate, the discharge specific capacity at 0.2C can reach 137-156 mAh / g, the median voltage is 3.52V-3.7V, the discharge specific capacity at 1C can reach 109-122 mAh / g, the discharge specific capacity at 5C can reach 100-109 mAh / g, and the capacity retention rate is as high as 89%-94% after 200 cycles of charge and discharge at 1C. (For example: Examples 1-4, Comparative Examples 1-4)
[0250] When the proportion of the doping elements is fixed, the proportion of iron, manganese and vanadium three active transition metal ions has a more significant influence on the electrochemical behavior of the material, thereby affecting the rate performance and capacity retention rate of the material under the cycle condition. When Na4Fe 3-x-1.5y-z Mn x V y A z In the structure of (PO4)2P2O7@C, when x is 1.75, z is 0.2, and y satisfies 0.5≥y≥0.1, the prepared material has excellent rate performance and capacity retention rate, the discharge specific capacity at 0.2C can reach 135-150 mAh / g, the median voltage is 3.43V-3.52V, the discharge specific capacity at 1C can reach 108-119 mAh / g, the discharge specific capacity at 5C can reach 100-111 mAh / g, and the capacity retention rate is as high as 89%-94% after 200 cycles of charge and discharge at 1C.
