Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of composite lithium anode materials, and particularly relates to a self-supporting composite lithium anode material with controllable lithium loading and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Lithium metal anodes have the highest theoretical specific capacity and the lowest electrochemical potential, and are ideal anode materials for simultaneously achieving high energy density and efficient fast charging requirements.

[0003] Lithium metal anodes have attracted extensive research attention due to their ultra-high theoretical capacity, lowest redox potential and low weight density. However, problems such as lithium dendrite growth and volume change of the lithium anode during the lithium stripping / deposition process lead to low Coulomb efficiency and poor cycle life; secondly, during the lithium stripping process, due to the reduction of lithium thickness, a gap is generated between the separator and the lithium metal, thereby generating separator stress, posing a serious safety hazard; in addition, in traditional lithium metal batteries, due to lithium dendrite growth and uncontrolled reactions with liquid electrolytes, active lithium metal is continuously consumed. Therefore, in order to ensure performance, lithium metal is usually in excess, which greatly reduces the energy density of the battery and increases the cost of the battery, hindering the practical application of lithium metal batteries.

[0004] Currently, there are many designs for the negative electrode current collector. Among them, carbon materials have the advantages of light weight, adjustable physical and chemical properties, high electronic conductivity, low cost, etc., and are considered to be perfect hosts for lithium. The carbon nanofiber membrane prepared by electrospinning has characteristics such as high porosity, large specific surface area, and controllable diameter, which can enhance the wettability of the electrolyte and form a matrix similar to a three-dimensional network storage library for storing active substances, and functional carbon fibers with adjustable properties can be synthesized by reasonably adjusting the composition of the spinning solution. However, the carbon nanofiber membrane has problems such as low strength, poor toughness, and poor lithium affinity, which limit its use as a negative electrode current collector. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a self-supporting composite lithium anode material with controllable lithium loading and a preparation method thereof to solve one or more of the above-mentioned technical problems. The present invention prepares a flexible carbon fiber membrane by electrospinning using a soluble polymer as a carbon source, uniformly loads metal oxide particles on its surface, and then prepares a composite lithium anode by melt lithium injection. The carbon fiber has a three-dimensional network structure, which alleviates the volume change during lithium stripping / deposition as a self-supporting skeleton. The interaction between the lithiumophilic metal oxide on the surface of the carbon fiber and lithium enables lithium to be uniformly deposited on the surface of the carbon fiber, inhibits the generation of lithium dendrites, and improves the cycle stability of the battery.

[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions: A preparation method of a self-supporting composite lithium anode material with controllable lithium loading amount, comprising the following steps: Weigh a soluble polymer, a metal acetate and a pore former with a mass ratio of 1:0.1~0.4:0.1~0.2:10, dissolve them in a dimethylformamide solution for mixing treatment to obtain a precursor solution; Transfer the precursor solution to an electrospinning experimental platform to obtain an organic polymer fiber membrane; Pre-oxidize the organic polymer fiber membrane in a muffle furnace, then put it into a tube furnace and heat it under a nitrogen atmosphere to complete carbonization to obtain a flexible carbon fiber membrane; during this process, the metal acetate thermally decomposes and is reduced to a metal single substance coated inside the carbon fiber; Soak the obtained carbon fiber membrane in a metal salt solution with a concentration of 0.2~1mol / L, dry it and then put it into a tube furnace and heat it under a nitrogen atmosphere. The metal salt thermally decomposes into metal oxide particles attached to the surface of the carbon fiber to obtain a flexible carbon fiber membrane loaded with metal oxide particles; Heat the carbon fiber membrane, and combine different masses of lithium with the flexible carbon fiber membrane loaded with metal oxide particles by the method of molten lithium injection to obtain a self-supporting composite lithium anode material with controllable lithium loading amount.

[0007] A further improvement of the present invention is that the selected soluble polymer is polyacrylonitrile, polyvinylidene fluoride or polystyrene; the selected metal acetate is zinc acetate, copper acetate or aluminum acetate; the selected pore former is urea, ammonium bicarbonate or ferrocene.

[0008] A further improvement of the present invention is that the mass ratio of the soluble polymer to the metal acetate is 3:1~3.

[0009] A further improvement of the present invention is that the selected metal oxide particles are zinc oxide, lead oxide, molybdenum oxide or titanium oxide.

[0010] A further improvement of the present invention is that the voltage of electrospinning is set to 12~17kV.

[0011] A further improvement of the present invention is that the pre-oxidation temperature is 200~300°C and the heat preservation time is more than 2h.

[0012] A further improvement of the present invention is that the carbonization temperature under a nitrogen atmosphere is 600~1000°C and the heat preservation time is more than 2h.

[0013] A further improvement of the present invention is that the heat treatment temperature under a nitrogen atmosphere is 400~600°C and the heat preservation time is more than 3h.

[0014] A further improvement of the present invention is that when injecting lithium into the carbon fiber, the molten lithium temperature is 200~300°C.

[0015] A self-supporting composite lithium anode material with controllable lithium loading, which is prepared by the described preparation method.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following beneficial technical effects: 1. The carbon fiber membrane prepared in the present invention is prepared by an electrospinning process, and has characteristics such as high porosity, large specific surface area, and controllable diameter. It can enhance the wettability of the electrolyte, and the carbon fiber has a three-dimensional network structure to play a self-supporting role, which can effectively avoid volume changes during the lithium deposition and stripping process, and no gap will be generated between the separator and the anode, thereby eliminating the separator stress and effectively improving safety.

[0017] 2. A small amount of metal acetate is added to the carbon fiber membrane prepared in the present invention. During the heat treatment process, the metal acetate decomposes and is reduced to metal nanoparticles coated inside the carbon fiber, making the carbon fiber have good flexibility and still can remain intact after multiple bending and winding.

[0018] 3. A pore-forming agent in a set proportion is added during the preparation process of the metal salt solution of the present invention. The aim is to form a more uniform and suitable pore structure during the subsequent treatment process through the action of the pore-forming agent. These pores not only provide more attachment sites for metal oxide particles, but also ensure that the particles can be evenly and firmly attached to the surface of the carbon fiber membrane. This uniform attachment method greatly increases the contact area between the metal oxide and the carbon fiber membrane, thereby enhancing the interaction force between them. In addition, the use of the pore-forming agent is also beneficial to the diffusion and transmission of lithium ions in the carbon fiber membrane, promoting the effective combination of lithium and the carbon fiber membrane. It provides a better material choice for application fields such as lithium-ion batteries.

[0019] 4. In the present invention, a carbon fiber membrane loaded with metal oxide is obtained by soaking in a lithiophilic metal salt solution and then performing high-temperature heat treatment. The metal oxide can effectively improve the lithiophilicity of the carbon fiber, and at the same time retains the advantage of low density of the carbon fiber. The equipment in the preparation process is simple, avoiding complex process flows, and the raw material cost is low.

[0020] 5. The present invention adopts a low-temperature molten lithium injection method, and lithium injection can be completed at 200 - 300 °C. And a composite anode with different lithium loadings is obtained by controlling the mass of the molten lithium block. Description of the Drawings

[0034] The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

[0035] A preparation method of a self-supporting composite lithium negative electrode material with controllable lithium loading amount in an embodiment of the present invention, wherein the preparation method includes the following steps: I. Preparation of flexible carbon fiber membrane by electrospinning 1. Preparation of precursor solution: Metal acetate and pore-forming agent are added to dimethylformamide solution in a set ratio, and after ultrasonic dispersion and dissolution, a clear and transparent solution is formed; then the solution is transferred to a magnetic stirrer, the rotation speed is set to 300 - 400 rpm, and at the same time, soluble polymer powder is slowly added; when the soluble polymer powder is completely dissolved to obtain a clear solution, the precursor solution can be obtained.

[0036] 2. Preparation of flexible carbon fiber membrane: The spinning dope is transferred to a syringe on an electrospinning experimental platform. After electrospinning is completed, the organic fiber membrane is transferred to a forced-air drying oven to remove the unevaporated dimethylformamide solvent; then it is pre-oxidized by heating to 200 - 300 °C. The pre-oxidized fiber membrane is transferred to a tubular furnace. After exhausting the air in the quartz tube, it is kept at 600 - 1000 °C for 2 - 6 h to complete carbonization, and a flexible carbon fiber membrane is obtained.

[0037] II. Preparation of self-supporting composite lithium negative electrode material with controllable lithium loading amount 1. Flexible carbon fiber composite metal oxide particles: Prepare a zinc acetate solution (or metal salt solutions such as lead nitrate and molybdenum acetate solution) with a concentration of 0.2 - 1 mol / L. Immerse a certain mass of carbon fiber membrane in the above solution, take it out and dry it, then transfer it to a tubular furnace. Pass nitrogen at a rate of 100 - 200 ml / h as a protective atmosphere, heat it to 450 - 600 °C at a rate of 10 °C / min, and keep it for 2 - 6 h. During this process, the metal salt is completely decomposed into metal oxide and evenly distributed on the surface of the carbon fiber.

[0038] 2. Flexible carbon fiber molten lithium injection: The process of melting lithium is carried out in a glove box under an argon atmosphere. Place the lithium block on the carbon fiber membrane maintained at 200 - 300 °C for melting preparation. By controlling the respective masses of the lithium block and the carbon fiber membrane, composite anodes with different lithium loadings are prepared. According to the above operation, a self-supporting composite lithium anode material with controllable lithium loading is prepared.

[0039] Furthermore, the selected soluble polymer is polyacrylonitrile, polyvinylidene fluoride or polystyrene; the selected metal acetate is zinc acetate, copper acetate or aluminum acetate; the selected pore-forming agent is urea, ammonium bicarbonate or ferrocene. The selected metal oxide particles are zinc oxide, lead oxide, molybdenum oxide or titanium oxide.

[0040] Among them, polyacrylonitrile is commonly used to prepare the precursor of carbon fiber and is also used to prepare ultrafiltration membranes and nanofiltration membranes, etc. Polyvinylidene fluoride has excellent chemical corrosion resistance, thermal stability and electrical insulation, and is widely used in fields such as battery separators, microfiltration membranes and nanofiltration membranes. Polystyrene is a commonly used plastic material with good processing performance and transparency, and can be used to prepare foam materials, packaging materials, etc.

[0041] Among metal acetates, metal acetates such as zinc acetate, copper acetate and aluminum acetate are usually used as metal sources and play an important role in the preparation of nanomaterials such as metal oxides and metal sulfides. They can be converted into corresponding metal oxides or sulfides by methods such as thermal decomposition or chemical precipitation.

[0042] Among pore-forming agents, pore-forming agents such as urea, ammonium bicarbonate and ferrocene play a key role in the preparation of porous materials. They can generate gas or volatilize during the material preparation process, thus leaving pores in the material, increasing the specific surface area and porosity of the material. This is of great significance for improving the adsorption performance, catalytic performance, etc. of the material.

[0043] Among metal oxide particles, metal oxide particles such as zinc oxide, lead oxide, molybdenum oxide and titanium oxide have unique physical and chemical properties and are widely used in fields such as photocatalysis, electrocatalysis, sensors and energy storage materials. For example, zinc oxide and titanium oxide are commonly used photocatalysts and can be used to degrade organic pollutants and prepare solar cells, etc.

Add copper acetate and urea into 10 g of dimethylformamide solution, and form a clear and transparent solution through ultrasonic dispersion and dissolution. Then transfer the solution to a magnetic stirrer, set the rotation speed to 400 rpm, and slowly add polyacrylonitrile powder at the same time. Wait until the polyacrylonitrile powder is completely dissolved to obtain a blue-green clear solution, marked as #1, #2, #3 samples.

[0045] Transfer the #1, #2, #3 samples to the syringe in the electrospinning experimental platform, and set the solution injection speed to 0.8 mL / h, the distance between the needle tip and the roller to 15 cm, the voltage to 16 kV, and the roller rotation speed to 60 rpm. After the electrospinning is completed, transfer the polyacrylonitrile fiber to a blast drying oven to remove the unevaporated dimethylformamide solvent; then pre-oxidize it by heating to 260 °C. Transfer the pre-oxidized fiber membrane to a tube furnace, evacuate the air in the quartz tube, and keep it at 700 °C for 2 h to complete carbonization, obtaining a flexible carbon fiber membrane.
