Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of new energy materials, and particularly relates to a conductive protective coating for a manganese dioxide positive electrode of an aqueous zinc-ion battery and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Aqueous zinc-ion secondary batteries (ZIBs) have received increasing attention in recent years due to their high safety, abundant and inexpensive resources, and environmental friendliness, and are considered to be one of the strong competitors for the next generation of new energy batteries.

[0003] Aqueous zinc-ion batteries usually use metallic zinc as the negative electrode and an aqueous solution containing Zn 2+ as the electrolyte. There are various positive electrode materials, such as manganese-based compounds, vanadium-based compounds, Prussian blue analogs, etc. Among them, manganese-based oxides have the advantages of rich resources, high working potential, and high theoretical capacity, and are one of the most promising positive electrode materials for aqueous zinc-ion batteries and are widely used in the positive electrode materials of zinc-ion batteries. However, during the charge and discharge process of the battery, the manganese-based positive electrode material is limited by manganese dissolution and crystal structure collapse caused by the Jahn-Teller effect, resulting in problems such as capacity decay. For example, during the battery cycle, due to the repeated deintercalation and intercalation of H + / Zn 2+ in the manganese-based compound, its structure changes, resulting in serious structural damage and large volume changes, leading to problems such as the dissolution of active Mn in the manganese dioxide positive electrode into the electrolyte and irreversible phase transformation; in addition, the characteristic of low conductivity of the manganese dioxide positive electrode as a semiconductor material also hinders the further development of the manganese dioxide positive electrode material in aqueous zinc-ion batteries.

[0004] In view of this, the present invention aims to provide a conductive protective coating for a manganese dioxide positive electrode of an aqueous zinc-ion battery and a preparation method thereof. Based on the research on the surface modification mechanism of the manganese dioxide positive electrode, an ultrathin conductive protective coating is constructed on the surface of the manganese dioxide positive electrode. This coating endows the manganese dioxide positive electrode with better conductive performance to a certain extent, can reduce the impedance during the reaction process, and enables Zn 2+ to deintercalate and intercalate faster in the manganese structure, indirectly improving the charge and discharge specific capacity of the battery. Summary of the Invention

[0005] Aiming at the deficiencies of the prior art, a conductive protective coating for a manganese dioxide positive electrode of an aqueous zinc-ion battery and a preparation method thereof are provided. Based on the research on the surface modification mechanism of the manganese dioxide positive electrode, an ultrathin conductive protective coating is constructed on the surface of the manganese dioxide positive electrode. This coating endows the manganese dioxide positive electrode with better conductive performance to a certain extent, can reduce the impedance during the reaction process, and enables Zn 2+It can be deintercalated and intercalated faster in the manganese structure, indirectly improving the charge-discharge specific capacity of the battery.

[0006] To solve the above problems, the technical solution of the present invention is as follows:

[0007] A conductive protective coating for a manganese dioxide positive electrode of an aqueous zinc-ion battery. By weight percentage, the protective coating includes 60% - 90% of a conductive agent, 0.01% - 1% of a dispersant, 9.99% - 39% of a binder, and 0.2% - 1% of a water repellent.

[0008] As an improvement to the conductive protective coating for the manganese dioxide positive electrode of the aqueous zinc-ion battery of the present invention, the binder is at least one of polyvinylidene fluoride, styrene-butadiene rubber, and polyacrylate;

[0009] The conductive agent is at least one of carbon nanotubes, carbon black, SuperP, acetylene black, graphene, and graphene oxide;

[0010] The dispersant is at least one of polyvinylpyrrolidone and polyacrylate;

[0011] The water repellent is at least one of silane coupling agent and silicone resin.

[0012] As an improvement to the conductive protective coating for the manganese dioxide positive electrode of the aqueous zinc-ion battery of the present invention, the thickness of the conductive protective coating is 0.1 - 2 μm.

[0013] The present invention also provides a preparation method for a conductive protective coating of a manganese dioxide positive electrode of an aqueous zinc-ion battery. The preparation method includes the following steps:

[0014] S1. Weigh the conductive agent, dispersant, binder, and water repellent according to the ratio;

[0015] S2. After mixing the weighed conductive agent, dispersant, and solvent evenly, add the binder and mix evenly, and then add the water repellent and mix evenly to obtain a protective coating slurry; wherein, the solvent is at least one of N-methylpyrrolidone, dimethylformamide, and deionized water;

[0016] S3. Build the protective coating slurry obtained in step S2 onto the surface of the manganese dioxide positive electrode sheet, dry it, and then cut it to obtain a manganese dioxide positive electrode with a conductive protective coating.

[0017] As an improvement to the preparation method for the conductive protective coating of the manganese dioxide positive electrode of the aqueous zinc-ion battery of the present invention, the addition amount of the solvent in step S2 accounts for 70% - 95% of the total mass of the materials.

[0018] As an improvement to the preparation method of the conductive protection coating for the manganese dioxide positive electrode of the aqueous zinc-ion battery of the present invention, the construction method in step S3 is spraying, brushing or roll coating.

[0019] As an improvement to the preparation method of the conductive protection coating for the manganese dioxide positive electrode of the aqueous zinc-ion battery of the present invention, when the construction method in step S3 is spraying, the spraying amount of the spray gun is 10-200 mL / min.

[0020] As an improvement to the preparation method of the conductive protection coating for the manganese dioxide positive electrode of the aqueous zinc-ion battery of the present invention, the drying method in step S3 is air drying or infrared drying, the drying temperature is 80-150 °C, the drying time is 0.1-10 min, and the thickness of the conductive protection coating is 0.1-2 μm.

[0021] The present invention also provides a manganese dioxide positive electrode for an aqueous zinc-ion battery, including a manganese dioxide positive electrode sheet and a conductive protection coating provided on the surface of the manganese dioxide positive electrode, and the conductive protection coating is the coating of the present invention.

[0022] The present invention improves the cycle stability of the manganese-based positive electrode by constructing an ultra-thin interfacial conductive protection coating on the surface of the manganese dioxide positive electrode, which can not only reduce the direct contact between the manganese dioxide positive electrode and the active water in the electrolyte, but also promote the zinc ion transport kinetics on the surface of the positive electrode. In addition, the coating can block the dissolved manganese dioxide and enable the dissolved manganese dioxide to redeposit between the positive electrode and the coating. The combination of the two can effectively solve the problems of poor conductivity, large volume change and high dissolution rate of the manganese dioxide positive electrode material in the aqueous zinc-ion battery.

[0023] By using the prepared manganese dioxide positive electrode, the rechargeable aqueous zinc-ion battery can be made into structures such as button type, column type, sheet type and soft package.

[0024] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solutions, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0025] 1. Based on the research on the surface improvement mechanism of the manganese dioxide positive electrode, the present invention constructs an ultra-thin conductive protection coating on the surface of the manganese dioxide positive electrode. This coating endows the manganese dioxide positive electrode with better conductivity to a certain extent, can reduce the impedance during the reaction, and enables Zn 2+ to be deintercalated and intercalated faster in the manganese structure, indirectly improving the charge-discharge specific capacity of the battery.

[0026] 2. In the present invention, the ultra-thin conductive protective coating covering the surface of the manganese dioxide cathode of the aqueous zinc-ion battery has a high tensile strength and elastic modulus, enabling the manganese dioxide cathode material to effectively inhibit the structural damage of the manganese-based compound during charge and discharge, reducing the volume change of the cathode material. At the same time, the coating can block the dissolved manganese dioxide, allowing the dissolved manganese dioxide to redeposit between the cathode and the coating, thereby extending the cycle life of the battery. Meanwhile, the added hydrophobic agent component improves the hydrophobicity of manganese dioxide, reducing the contact between manganese dioxide and water and enhancing the stability of the manganese dioxide material.

[0027] 3. In the present invention, the preparation process of the conductive protective coating is simple, fast, environmentally friendly, and low-cost, facilitating the development of high-performance zinc-ion batteries.

[0028] 4. The thickness of the conductive protective coating prepared in the present invention is only 0.1 - 2 μm. On the one hand, this coating has a high tensile strength and elastic modulus, which can alleviate the swelling behavior of the manganese dioxide cathode sheet and prevent structural damage caused by the detachment of the active material from the current collector. On the other hand, this coating has conductive properties, which can reduce the impedance during the electrochemical reaction process, facilitate the deposition of manganese ions during the reaction process, delay the attenuation of battery capacity, and extend the cycle life of the aqueous zinc-ion battery.
