Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of sodium ion batteries, in particular to a positive electrode material, a preparation method thereof, a positive electrode sheet and a sodium ion battery. BACKGROUND

[0002] Prussian blue (PB) and its analogues (PBAs) are composed of a three-dimensional framework structure, which can provide a wide channel for the insertion and extraction of sodium ions, and PB and its analogues are an ideal positive electrode material for sodium ion batteries (SIBs). However, there are a large number of water molecules and vacancies in PBAs materials, which greatly reduces the storage sites of sodium ions, and the transition metal ions in the metal-organic framework are prone to be precipitated during the cycle process, resulting in limited sodium storage capacity and poor cycle stability of the PBAs positive electrode material. In recent years, various PBAs modification technologies have been researched, which have significantly improved the electrochemical sodium storage performance.

[0003] Among them, metal element doping is a basic method for adjusting capacity, life, rate performance and production cost, and has been widely used in the preparation of SIB materials. Metal ions are usually doped at M sites or Na sites, and transition metal ions such as Ni 2+ , Co 2+ , Cu 2+ , Mn 2+ , Sn 4+ , etc. partially replace the metals at M sites, and K + is usually doped at Na sites. However, the doping of metal cations cannot reduce the content of crystallization water in PBAs, and the doping of expensive metals will also increase the production cost of SIB products. SUMMARY

[0004] In view of the technical problems in the background art, the present application provides a positive electrode material, a preparation method thereof, a positive electrode sheet and a sodium ion battery, aiming to solve the technical problem that the rate performance and cycle performance of Prussian blue sodium battery material are poor due to too high crystallization water content.

[0005] In a first aspect, the embodiments of the present application provide a positive electrode material, which comprises a Prussian blue material, and the molecular formula of the Prussian blue material is Na x Fe y Fe(CN) z F 6-z ·nH2O·mHCl, wherein 1.90≤x≤2.20, 0.9≤y≤1.2, 4.20≤z≤5.50, 1.00≤n≤1.75, and 0.001≤m≤0.007.

[0006] In the technical scheme of the embodiment of the present application, by controlling the chemical composition of the Prussian blue material, fluorine elements are introduced to replace part of the cyanide ions to reduce the content of crystal water and the crystal water vacancy is occupied by HCl, thereby effectively improving the stability of the positive electrode material and improving the electrochemical performance of the positive electrode material.

[0007] In some embodiments, the diffusion coefficient of sodium ions in the Prussian blue material described above is 3.00*10 -13 cm 2 / s~1.00*10 -10 cm 2 / s.

[0008] In this embodiment, the diffusion coefficient of sodium ions in the Prussian blue material is controlled to be within the above range, which is beneficial to improve the transmission speed of sodium ions, so that sodium ions can be embedded and extracted in the positive electrode material faster, which is beneficial to improve the rate performance and cycle performance of the sodium ion battery using the positive electrode material and other improvements in electrochemical performance.

[0010] In the technical scheme of the embodiment of the present application, in the high-concentration fluorine ion environment of the base solution, the fluorine ions with strong complexing ability form complexes with the added ferrous ions and replace part of the cyanide ions, thereby partially introducing fluorine ions into the Prussian blue material. Aging treatment is beneficial to the full crystallization of the Prussian blue material, and reaction treatment further reduces the crystal water inside the Prussian blue material, which is beneficial to improve the stability of the positive electrode material and improve the electrochemical performance of the positive electrode material in terms of cycle stability and rate performance.

[0012] In this embodiment, the formation step of the base solution and the composition, ratio, and concentration of each solution are controlled within the above-mentioned ranges, which is conducive to optimizing the synthesis conditions of the positive electrode material, thereby improving the overall performance of the positive electrode material; at the same time, controlling the pH value within the above-mentioned range is conducive to improving the effectiveness of fluorine ion doping. In addition, by optimizing the above-mentioned parameters, not only is the uniform doping of fluorine ions promoted, but also the structural integrity of the positive electrode material is improved, thereby improving the overall performance of the positive electrode material.

[0014] Controlling the temperature and time of the aging treatment, and controlling the concentration of the above-mentioned solutions and the molar ratio of the solutes in the above-mentioned solutions within the above-mentioned corresponding ranges, is more conducive to improving the efficiency and effectiveness of fluorine ion doping, thereby being conducive to improving the structural stability of the positive electrode material and improving the electrochemical performance of the positive electrode material.

[0016] The step of controlling the slurry treatment is as described above, which is beneficial to improve the dispersion effect of the slurry; at the same time, the conditions of the controlling and reaction treatment are within the above-mentioned corresponding ranges, which is beneficial to fully utilize the ethanol-hydrogen chloride system to erode the intermediate product and to co-boil and replace the partial crystal water at high temperature, so as to further reduce the content of the crystal water in the positive electrode material and to improve the stability and the electrochemical performance of the positive electrode material.

[0017] In some embodiments, the intermediate product is sequentially subjected to a second washing and a second drying before the slurry treatment, wherein the conductivity of the washing water after the completion of the second washing is ≤150 μS / cm, and the water content in the intermediate product is lower than 0.2%.

[0018] By controlling the conditions of the second washing and the second drying, it is beneficial to reduce the water content of the reaction slurry obtained after the slurry treatment of the intermediate product, so as to be more beneficial to further reduce the content of the internal crystal water in the positive electrode material through the reaction treatment and to improve the stability and the electrochemical performance of the positive electrode material.

[0019] In some embodiments, the product obtained through the reaction treatment is sequentially subjected to a second solid-liquid separation treatment, a first washing, a first drying and a crushing to obtain the positive electrode material; and / or, the first washing is performed using alcohol, and the pH value of the washing liquid after the washing is 5.5 or higher; the first drying is performed under the protection of a protective gas, the mass fraction of ethanol in the material is less than 0.1%, the temperature of the first drying is 110-150°C, and the oxygen content in the environment during the first drying is less than 1000 ppm; and the particle size of the positive electrode material after the crushing is 1-5 μm.

[0022] In this embodiment, thanks to the low content of crystal water of the positive electrode material, the positive electrode tab comprising the positive electrode material is prepared by the positive electrode material of the present application, and thus the positive electrode tab has better electrochemical performance such as cycle stability and rate capability.

[0023] In a fourth aspect, the embodiments of the present application provide a sodium ion battery comprising the positive electrode tab, which is the positive electrode tab described above.

[0024] In this embodiment, since the sodium ion battery is prepared by the positive electrode tab of the present application, the sodium ion battery not only has higher cycle performance and rate capability, but also the low content of crystal water of the positive electrode material reduces the risk of hydrolysis of the electrolyte of the sodium ion battery, thereby improving the stability and electrochemical performance of the sodium ion battery.

[0068] A pH value that is too low is not conducive to the stability of the material structure, and a pH value that is too high is not conducive to the embedding of fluoride ions. Controlling the pH value within the above range is beneficial to improving the effectiveness of fluoride ion doping.

[0069] In some embodiments, the pH value of the above base solution can be 2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 2.8, 2.9, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4 or 3.5, etc., or other values within the above range, which are not limited herein.

[0070] In some embodiments, the molar ratio of the solute of the sodium ferrocyanide solution, the solute of the ferrous salt solution and the solute of the sodium salt solution is 1:(1.2-1.5):(2-3).

[0071] Controlling the above molar ratio is helpful to more accurately control the chemical composition of the final positive electrode material, so that the molecular formula of the positive electrode material is closer to Na xFe y Fe(CN) z F 6-z The optimal ratio of nH2O.mHCI. Such a ratio helps to optimize the structural stability and ion diffusion channels of the positive electrode material, thereby improving the capacity and cycle stability of the positive electrode material.

[0072] In some embodiments, the molar ratio of the solute of the sodium ferrocyanide solution, the solute of the ferrous salt solution, and the solute of the sodium salt solution can be 1:1.2:2, 1:1.3:2, 1:1.4:2, 1:1.5:2, 1:1.2:2.5, 1:1.3:2.5, 1:1.4:2.5, 1:1.5:2.5, 1:1.2:3, 1:1.3:3, 1:1.4:3, or 1:1.5:3, etc., and can also be other values within the above ranges, which are not limited herein.

[0073] In some embodiments, the concentration of the sodium ferrocyanide solution is 1 mol / L-2 mol / L.

[0074] In some embodiments, the concentration of the ferrous salt solution is 1.5 mol / L-2.5 mol / L; the ferrous salt solution is selected from any one or more of ferrous chloride solution, ferrous sulfate solution, and ferrous acetate solution. In some embodiments, the concentration of the sodium ferrocyanide solution can be 1 mol / L, 1.1 mol / L, 1.2 mol / L, 1.3 mol / L, 1.4 mol / L, 1.5 mol / L, 1.6 mol / L, 1.7 mol / L, 1.8 mol / L, 1.9 mol / L, 2.0 mol / L, 2.1 mol / L, 2.2 mol / L, 2.3 mol / L, 2.4 mol / L, or 2.5 mol / L, etc., and can also be other values within the above ranges, which are not limited herein.

[0075] The concentration of the sodium ferrocyanide solution and the concentration of the ferrous salt solution are controlled within the above corresponding ranges based on the consideration of reaction kinetics and chemical equilibrium, so as to facilitate efficient reaction, while reducing the risk of side reactions or material structure damage caused by excessive reactants. The preferred above-mentioned ferrous salt has a wide source and a moderate price, which helps to improve the economy of the entire production process, and at the same time, they have good solubility in solution, which is convenient for control and operation, and is conducive to the stability and cost control of the production process.

[0076] In some embodiments, the ferrous salt solution further includes a reducing agent and a complexing agent.

[0077] Fe 2+is the key to constitute the framework of Prussian blue type materials, keeping its reduced state is essential to form the correct crystal structure, the presence of reducing agent is conducive to ensure that ferrous ions remain in the divalent state during the synthesis process, to avoid oxidation to trivalent iron ions (Fe 3+ ). Complexing agent helps to form a stable complex with ferrous ions, reducing the risk of premature precipitation or oxidation of ferrous ions in solution, thereby improving the uniform dispersion and stable existence of ferrous ions during the reaction process, conducive to the formation of uniform crystal structure.

[0078] In some embodiments, the reducing agent is sulfite and / or hydrazine hydrate.

[0079] Sulfite and / or hydrazine hydrate as a reducing agent helps to facilitate the progress of the synthesis reaction, especially the step involving sodium ferrocyanide solution and the bottom liquid reaction.

[0080] In some embodiments, the concentration of the reducing agent in the ferrous salt solution is 0.1 mol / L to 0.5 mol / L.

[0081] Too high concentration of reducing agent may produce unnecessary side reactions, consume too much resources, while too low concentration may not be able to effectively promote the reduction reaction, affecting the quality of the material and the progress of the reaction, controlling the concentration of reducing agent in the above range helps to balance the efficiency of the reducing agent in the reaction and the use cost problem.

[0082] In some embodiments, the concentration of the reducing agent in the ferrous salt solution can be 0.1 mol / L, 0.15 mol / L, 0.20 mol / L, 0.25 mol / L, 0.30 mol / L, 0.35 mol / L, 0.40 mol / L, 0.45 mol / L or 0.50 mol / L, etc. It can also be other values within the above range, which is not limited here.

[0083] In some embodiments, the complexing agent is ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and / or citric acid.

[0084] The above kind of complexing agent helps to form a more stable complex with ferrous ions, thereby facilitating the formation of a uniform crystal structure, thereby improving the stability of the structure of the positive electrode material.

[0085] In some embodiments, the concentration of the complexing agent in the ferrous salt solution is 0.01 mol / L to 0.2 mol / L.

[0086] Controlling the concentration of the complexing agent in the above range is more conducive to improving the effectiveness of the complexing reaction and the controllability of the material structure.

[0087] In some embodiments, the concentration of the complexing agent in the ferrous salt solution can be 0.01 mol / L, 0.02 mol / L, 0.03 mol / L, 0.04 mol / L, 0.05 mol / L, 0.06 mol / L, 0.07 mol / L, 0.08 mol / L, 0.09 mol / L, 0.1 mol / L, 0.11 mol / L, 0.12 mol / L, 0.13 mol / L, 0.14 mol / L, 0.15 mol / L, 0.16 mol / L, 0.17 mol / L, 0.18 mol / L, 0.19 mol / L, or 0.2 mol / L, etc., and can also be other values within the above range, which are not limited herein.

[0088] In some embodiments, the concentration of the sodium salt solution is 3-5 mol / L, the mass fraction of sodium fluoride in the solute of the sodium salt solution is 10-20%, and the remaining sodium salt in the solute of the sodium salt solution is selected from any one or more of sodium chloride, sodium sulfate, sodium acetate, and sodium citrate. In some embodiments, the concentration of the sodium salt solution can be 3 mol / L, 3.1 mol / L, 3.2 mol / L, 3.3 mol / L, 3.4 mol / L, 3.5 mol / L, 3.6 mol / L, 3.7 mol / L, 3.8 mol / L, 3.9 mol / L, 4.0 mol / L, 4.1 mol / L, 4.2 mol / L, 4.3 mol / L, 4.4 mol / L, 4.5 mol / L, 4.6 mol / L, 4.7 mol / L, 4.8 mol / L, 4.9 mol / L, or 5 mol / L, etc., and can also be other values within the above range, which are not limited herein.

[0089] By controlling the concentration of the sodium salt solution, the mass fraction of sodium fluoride, and selecting different sodium salts, the synthesis conditions of the positive electrode material can be optimized, the efficient reaction can be promoted, the microstructure of the positive electrode material can be controlled, the electrochemical performance of the positive electrode material can be improved, and the cost and performance can be balanced at the same time.

[0090] In summary, by controlling the formation step of the base solution and the composition, ratio, and concentration of each solution within the above range, the synthesis conditions of the positive electrode material can be optimized, thereby improving the overall performance of the positive electrode material. At the same time, by optimizing the above parameters, not only the uniform doping of fluorine ions is promoted, but also the structural integrity of the positive electrode material is improved, thereby improving the overall performance of the positive electrode material.

[0091] In some embodiments, the steps of mixing the base solution, the sodium ferrocyanide solution, the ferrous salt solution, and the sodium salt solution include:

[0092] The temperature of the sodium ferrocyanide solution, the ferrous salt solution, and the sodium salt solution is maintained respectively;

[0098] In some embodiments, the first mixing time is 30-60 minutes, for example, it can be 35 minutes, 40 minutes, 45 minutes, 50 minutes, 55 minutes, etc.

[0101] The aging treatment in the above temperature range and time range helps to reduce the risk of generating excessive agglomeration or too small particles, thereby facilitating the formation of a uniform and orderly crystal structure, improving the electrical conductivity and ion diffusion efficiency of the positive electrode material, and thus enhancing the sodium storage capacity and cycle stability of the battery. In some embodiments of the present application, the temperature of the above aging treatment can be 70℃, 72℃, 74℃, 75℃, 76℃, 78℃, 80℃, 82℃, 84℃, 85℃, 86℃, 88℃, or 90℃, etc., and can also be other values within the above range, which are not limited herein; the time of the aging treatment can be 1h, 1.1h, 1.2h, 1.3h, 1.4h, 1.5h, 1.6h, 1.7h, 1.8h, 1.9h, or 2h, etc., and can also be other values within the above range, which are not limited herein; the amount-of-substance ratio of sodium fluoride to iron fluoride in the first solution can be 1:0.1, 1:0.11, 1:0.12, 1:0.13, 1:0.14, 1:0.15, 1:0.16, 1:0.17, 1:0.18, 1:0.19, or 1:0.2, etc., and can also be other values within the above range, which are not limited herein.

[0102] In some embodiments, the total concentration of fluoride ions in the first solution is 2mol / L-4mol / L.

[0103] By controlling the amount-of-substance ratio of sodium fluoride to iron fluoride in the first solution within the above range, it is beneficial to the uniform doping of fluoride ions in the positive electrode material. In some embodiments, the total concentration of fluoride ions in the first solution can be 2mol / L, 2.1mol / L, 2.2mol / L, 2.3mol / L, 2.4mol / L, 2.5mol / L, 2.6mol / L, 2.7mol / L, 2.8mol / L, 2.9mol / L, 3.0mol / L, 3.1mol / L, 3.2mol / L, 3.3mol / L, 3.4mol / L, 3.5mol / L, 3.6mol / L, 3.7mol / L, 3.8mol / L, 3.9mol / L, or 4mol / L, etc., and can also be other values within the above range, which are not limited herein.

[0104] In some embodiments, the concentration of the second solution is 5mol / L-8mol / L.

[0105] The concentration of the second solution is controlled within the above range, which helps to inhibit side reactions, improve the purity and performance of the positive electrode material, and is conducive to the structural stability of the positive electrode material. In some embodiments, the concentration of the second solution can be 5 mol / L, 5.2 mol / L, 5.4 mol / L, 5.5 mol / L, 5.7 mol / L, 5.8 mol / L, 6.0 mol / L, 6.2 mol / L, 6.4 mol / L, 6.5 mol / L, 6.7 mol / L, 6.8 mol / L, 7.0 mol / L, 7.2 mol / L, 7.4 mol / L, 7.5 mol / L, 7.7 mol / L, 7.8 mol / L, or 8 mol / L, etc., and can also be other values within the above range, which are not limited herein.

[0106] The temperature and time of the aging treatment, the concentration of the above solution, and the amount of substance ratio of the solute in the above solution are controlled within the corresponding ranges, which is more conducive to improving the efficiency and effect of fluorine ion doping, thereby improving the structural stability of the positive electrode material and improving the electrochemical performance of the positive electrode material.

[0107] In some embodiments, the first solid-liquid separation treatment can be performed by normal pressure filtration, pressure filtration, suction filtration, centrifugal separation, etc.

[0108] In some embodiments of the present application, the above intermediate product and the acid solution are mixed and slurried to obtain a reaction slurry.

[0109] The above steps help to reduce the amount of crystal water, optimize the sodium ion diffusion path, improve the purity of the material, improve the dispersibility of the intermediate product, and control the microstructure, which plays a role in improving the performance of the positive electrode material, such as high sodium storage capacity, good cycle stability, and rate performance.

[0110] In some embodiments, the temperature of the reaction treatment is 110°C to 130°C, and the time of the reaction treatment is 30 min to 60 min.

[0111] Controlling the temperature and time of the reaction treatment within the above range helps the crystal water to fully escape in the form of water vapor, while maintaining the integrity and stability of the positive electrode material structure. In some embodiments, the temperature of the reaction treatment can be 110°C, 112°C, 115°C, 117°C, 120°C, 122°C, 125°C, 128°C, or 130°C, etc., and can also be other values within the above range, which are not limited herein; the time of the reaction treatment can be 30 min, 32 min, 35 min, 38 min, 40 min, 42 min, 45 min, 48 min, 50 min, 52 min, 55 min, or 60 min, etc., and can also be other values within the above range, which are not limited herein.

[0112] In some embodiments, the stirring speed of the reaction treatment is 100 r / min to 300 r / min.

[0113] Controlling the above stirring speed helps to promote uniform mixing of the reactants, improve reaction efficiency, control the particle size of the positive electrode material, and reduce the generation of by-products, thereby helping to synthesize a positive electrode material with excellent performance. In some embodiments, the stirring speed of the reaction treatment can be 100 r / min, 120 r / min, 150 r / min, 200 r / min, 250 r / min, or 300 r / min, etc., or other values within the above range, which are not limited herein.

[0114] In some embodiments, the acid solution is a hydrochloric acid-ethanol solution, and the concentration of hydrogen ions in the acid solution is 0.5 mol / L to 1 mol / L.

[0115] The present application utilizes the ethanol-hydrogen chloride system at high temperature to realize the corrosion of the positive electrode material and the azeotropy and replacement of part of the crystal water. Specifically, the reaction treatment of the reaction slurry in the present application utilizes the ethanol-hydrogen chloride system at high temperature to corrode the intermediate product and realize the azeotropy and replacement of part of the crystal water. At high temperature, part of the crystal water and hydrogen chloride form azeotropy, thereby removing the intermediate product, and the vacancy position generated thereby is occupied by hydrogen chloride. This reduces the crystal water content of the Prussian blue material and effectively reduces the collapse of the structure of the Prussian blue material caused by the removal of water.

[0116] Further, hydrogen ions can accelerate the formation of vacancies in the positive electrode material, and these vacancies are subsequently occupied by chloride ions. Controlling the concentration of hydrogen ions within the above range helps to optimize the diffusion channel of sodium ions and improve the diffusion coefficient of sodium ions while removing the crystal water, which helps to form the complex structure unique to the Prussian blue material and improve the rate performance and cycle stability of the positive electrode material. In addition, the presence of ethanol can act as a dispersant, which helps to reduce the excessive aggregation of positive electrode material particles. In some embodiments, the concentration of hydrogen ions in the acid solution can be 0.5 mol / L, 0.55 mol / L, 0.6 mol / L, 0.65 mol / L, 0.7 mol / L, 0.75 mol / L, 0.8 mol / L, 0.85 mol / L, 0.9 mol / L, 0.95 mol / L, or 1 mol / L, etc., or other values within the above range, which are not limited herein.

[0117] In some embodiments, the mass ratio of solids to liquids in the reaction slurry is 1:(3-4), i.e., the solid-liquid ratio in the reaction slurry is 1:(3-4).

[0118] The above mass ratio is not only conducive to the removal of the crystallization water in the intermediate product, but also conducive to reducing the agglomeration and improving the electrochemical performance, production efficiency and reducing the cost of the positive electrode material. In some embodiments, the mass ratio of the solid to the liquid in the reaction slurry can be 1:3, 1:3.1, 1:3.2, 1:3.3, 1:3.4, 1:3.5, 1:3.6, 1:3.7, 1:3.8, 1:3.9 or 1:4, etc., and can also be other values within the above range, which is not limited herein.

[0119] In summary, by controlling the slurry treatment within the above corresponding range, the dispersion effect of the slurry is improved. At the same time, by controlling the conditions of the reaction treatment within the above corresponding range, the ethanol-hydrogen chloride system is fully utilized to erode the intermediate product and to azeotrope and replace the partial crystallization water at high temperature, so as to further reduce the content of the crystallization water in the positive electrode material and improve the stability and electrochemical performance of the positive electrode material.

[0120] In some embodiments, the intermediate product is sequentially subjected to the second washing and the second drying before the slurry treatment.

[0121] In some embodiments, the washing liquid of the second washing can be at least one of deionized water, secondary water, distilled water, pure water, ultrapure water. The conductivity of the washing water after the completion of the second washing is less than or equal to 150 μS / cm, i.e., the conductivity of the washing liquid after the completion of the second washing is less than or equal to 150 μS / cm.

[0122] In some embodiments, the water content in the intermediate product after the completion of the second drying is less than 0.2%.

[0123] In some embodiments, the second drying can adopt vacuum drying.

[0124] In some embodiments, the temperature of the second drying can be lower than the temperature of the reaction treatment.

[0125] In some embodiments of the present application, the product obtained by the reaction treatment is sequentially subjected to the second solid-liquid separation treatment, the first washing, the first drying and the crushing to obtain the positive electrode material.

[0126] In some embodiments, the crushed positive electrode material is sequentially subjected to the screening, the iron removal and the packaging to obtain the final positive electrode material.

[0127] Through the screening, the iron removal and the packaging, the quality of the positive electrode material in the particle size, the purity and the storage state is improved, so as to improve the comprehensive performance of the positive electrode material in the sodium ion battery, including improving the cycle stability, the rate performance, the energy density and prolonging the battery life, etc.

[0128] In some embodiments, the second solid-liquid separation treatment can be performed by using normal pressure filtration, pressure filtration, suction filtration, centrifugal separation, etc.

[0129] In some embodiments, the pH value of the washing liquid after the first washing using alcohol is 5.5 or above; the first drying is performed under the protection of a protective gas, the mass fraction of ethanol in the material is less than 0.1%, the temperature of the first drying is 110-150°C, and the oxygen content in the environment during the first drying is less than 1000 ppm; and the particle size of the positive electrode material after crushing is 1-5 μm.

[0130] The alcohol washing is beneficial to effectively removing residual impurities, improving the purity of the positive electrode material, reducing the risk of impurities in the sodium ion battery, and improving the stability and life of the sodium ion battery. Washing to a pH value of 5.5 or above helps to ensure that the positive electrode material can be used in a neutral or nearly neutral environment, which is beneficial to improving the cycle performance and stability of the battery.

[0131] The first drying under the protection of a protective gas is beneficial to effectively reducing the risk of oxidation reaction of the positive electrode material with oxygen in the air, reducing by-products, and maintaining the electrochemical activity of the positive electrode material. By controlling the temperature of the first drying to be 110-150°C, it is helpful to quickly evaporate ethanol and control the mass fraction of ethanol to be less than 0.1% and as much as possible to reduce the content of crystal water in the positive electrode material, improve the structural stability of the positive electrode material, and reduce the negative impact of water precipitation in the battery cycle process on the performance of the sodium ion battery. Controlling the oxygen content in the environment during the first drying to be less than 1000 ppm helps to provide a nearly oxygen-free environment for the first drying, further reducing the possibility of oxidation. In some embodiments, the temperature of the first drying can be 110°C, 115°C, 120°C, 125°C, 130°C, 135°C, 140°C, 145°C, or 150°C, etc., or other values within the above range, which are not limited herein; the particle size of the positive electrode material after crushing can be 1 μm, 1.5 μm, 2 μm, 2.5 μm, 3.0 μm, 3.5 μm, 4.0 μm, 4.5 μm, or 5 μm, etc., or other values within the above range, which are not limited herein.

[0132] Controlling the particle size of the positive electrode material after crushing within the above range is beneficial to improving the particle size uniformity and the compaction density of the positive electrode material. Through the synergistic effect of the above steps, it is more beneficial to improve the electrochemical performance of the sodium ion battery.

[0133] In addition, in some embodiments, the protective gas for the above first drying is nitrogen, the first drying is performed in an oven, and the oxygen content in the environment during the first drying refers to the oxygen content in the oven.

[0134] In a third aspect, the application provides a positive electrode tab, which comprises the positive electrode material or the positive electrode material prepared by the preparation method.

[0135] In this embodiment, thanks to the low crystallization water content of the positive electrode material, the positive electrode tab comprising the positive electrode material is prepared by the positive electrode material of the application, and thus the positive electrode tab has better electrochemical properties such as cycle stability and rate capability.

[0136] In a fourth aspect, the application provides a sodium ion battery comprising the positive electrode tab, which is the positive electrode tab described above.

[0137] In this embodiment, since the sodium ion battery is prepared by the positive electrode tab of the application, the sodium ion battery not only has higher cycle performance and rate capability, but also the low crystallization water content of the positive electrode material reduces the risk of hydrolysis of the electrolyte of the sodium ion battery, thereby improving the stability and electrochemical performance of the sodium ion battery.

[0138] In a fifth aspect, the application provides an electric device comprising the sodium ion battery, which is the sodium ion battery described above. In this embodiment, the electric device contains the sodium ion battery described above, and thus has good stability and electrochemical performance.

[0139] The electric device provided by the embodiments of the application can be, but is not limited to, a mobile phone, a tablet, a notebook computer, an electric toy, an electric tool, an electric vehicle, an electric automobile, a ship, a spacecraft, etc. The electric toy can include a fixed or mobile electric toy, such as a game console, an electric automobile toy, an electric ship toy, an electric aircraft toy, etc. The spacecraft can include an airplane, a rocket, a space shuttle, a spacecraft, etc.
