[0071] (3) Example 3 successfully prepared 0.84 Na 4 Fe 3 (PO4 ) 2 (P 2 O 7 )·0.16Na 3.12 Fe 2.44 (P 2 O 7 ) 2 / C.

[0072] In order to illustrate the electrochemical performance of the composite sodium iron phosphate pyrophosphate positive electrode material prepared in Examples 1 to 3 of the present application, the positive electrode materials prepared in Examples 1 to 3 and Comparative Examples 1 to 3 are made into positive electrode sheets and used for the assembly of sodium ion batteries, specifically comprising:

[0073] Step 1: The positive electrode materials prepared in the embodiment and the comparative example are respectively mixed with conductive carbon black and a binder in a mass ratio of 8:1:1, and an organic solvent N-methylpyrrolidone is added and mixed thoroughly to form a slurry. A 50 μm scraper is used to evenly coat the slurry on an aluminum foil, and the slurry is dried and cut into discs with a diameter of 12 mm to obtain positive electrode sheets.

[0074] Step 2: Each positive electrode sheet is used as the positive electrode of the battery, the sodium sheet is used as the counter electrode, the electrolyte is 1M sodium perchlorate dissolved in a solvent with a volume ratio of propylene carbonate to ethylene carbonate of 1:1, and 5% of the total volume fraction of fluoroethylene carbonate is added, and glass fiber is used as a separator to assemble a sodium ion button cell, and the obtained button cell is subjected to electrochemical testing, and the results are as follows: Figures 4 to 5 As shown. Among them, Figure 4 This is the rate test diagram of button batteries in the voltage range of 1.7~4.3V; Figure 5 This is the charge and discharge curve of the button battery at 0.1 C.

[0075] according to Figure 4 It can be seen that the positive electrode materials prepared in Examples 1 to 3 of the present application have better rate performance and improved specific capacity than those in Comparative Examples 1 to 3. Specifically, the first cycle specific capacity of the button cell assembled with the composite sodium iron phosphate pyrophosphate positive electrode materials prepared in Examples 1 to 3 at 0.1C is 90.6 mAh·g -1 、96.4mAh·g -1 、106.4mAh·g -1 , which is higher than 76.4 mAh g in comparative example 1. -1 , 74.3 mAh·g in Comparative Example 2 -1 and 75.3 mAh·g in Comparative Example 3 -1 Therefore, the present invention adds excessive Na and P elements during the calcination process to in-situ derive Na 3.12 Fe 2.44 (P 2 O7 ) 2 active phase and form xNa with heterojunction 4 Fe 3 (PO 4 ) 2 (P 2 O 7 )·(1-x)Na 3.12 Fe 2.44 (P 2 O 7 ) 2 / C can effectively improve the rate performance of sodium iron pyrophosphate positive electrode materials.

[0076] according to Figure 5 It can be seen that the second phase Na 3.12 Fe 2.44 (P 2 O 7 ) 2 The introduction of it has good electrochemical performance while maintaining the original higher charge and discharge voltage platform.

[0077] In addition, this application also explores the second phase Na 3.12 Fe 2.44 (P 2 O 7 ) 2 The influence of the proportion of on the electrochemical performance of the composite phase sodium iron pyrophosphate positive electrode material is as follows:

[0078] Table 1: Electrochemical performance test results of composite cathode materials with different proportions of the second phase

[0079]

[0080] According to Table 1, the composite sodium iron phosphate pyrophosphate positive electrode material provided by the present application has a high discharge specific capacity and excellent cycle stability, especially when x is 0.84, it exhibits the most excellent electrochemical performance. The reason for this phenomenon may be that the present application generates a heterojunction at the interface of the two phases through targeted ratio regulation, thereby improving the material conductivity and sodium ion diffusion coefficient, and improving the specific capacity and cycle performance. At the same time, it can be seen from the table that when the proportion of the introduced second phase is relatively small, the performance improvement is limited, and the improvement effect is difficult to play; when the proportion of the introduced second phase is too large, the specific capacity of the overall material is close to the second phase with a smaller theoretical capacity, resulting in a decrease in the specific capacity, and it is easy to generate large internal stress at the interface of the two phases during the charge and discharge process, destroying the structural integrity of the material, and thus affecting the cycle performance.
