Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application relates to the technical field of potassium ion batteries, in particular to a silicon-based potassium ion solid electrolyte material and optimization modification thereof, and especially to a novel silicon-based potassium ion solid electrolyte material and a preparation method and application of optimization modification thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Large-scale energy storage systems can store unevenly distributed and intermittent wind and solar energy and output stable, flexible and controllable energy, which is conducive to solving energy problems and promoting sustainable economic development. In the field of large-scale energy storage systems, traditional liquid lithium ion batteries have certain limitations, including relatively high prices and difficult to fully guarantee safety. Mainly, the content of lithium resources on the earth is low and the distribution is seriously uneven, making it difficult to control and predict the cost. Secondly, liquid batteries need to use a large amount of organic solvents, which leads to safety hazards such as flammability, volatility and leakage. In the face of these problems, it is completely necessary and must be implemented to find an effective substitute for lithium ion batteries.
[0003] It is worth noting that the content of potassium in the earth's crust is high and there is no regional restriction. With the in-depth research of potassium ion batteries, potassium ion batteries are concerned due to their low cost, ecological friendliness and high energy density. Since the safety hazards of organic solvents exist in liquid lithium ion batteries, they are also reproduced in liquid potassium ion battery systems. And large-scale energy storage systems will amplify this problem, so it is particularly important to develop potassium ion solid-state batteries with higher safety and higher energy density, which have strong competitiveness in low cost, high safety and energy density, and also show great application value and business prospects.
