Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of polymer electrolyte preparation and relates to a phthalonitrile dual-continuous phase solid electrolyte and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] As the demand for lightweight and high-strength materials in high-tech fields such as aerospace becomes more and more urgent, structural multifunctional integrated composite materials with both mechanical bearing and energy storage functions have become an important research direction. Compared with traditional energy storage materials, structural-energy storage integrated composite materials have significant advantages in terms of quality, volume, cost, etc. By developing the design potential of composite materials in terms of structure and function, it is expected to integrate the structural components and power supply components of aerospace equipment as a whole to solve the problems of large volume, large mass, and low efficiency of energy storage devices. At present, the average energy storage density of structural-energy storage integrated carbon fiber composite materials is about 20Wh / kg, which is only 1 / 5 of that of ordinary lithium-ion energy storage structures, and its cycle charge and discharge stability is poor; at the same time, due to its poor mechanical properties, it cannot be used as a load-bearing structure, that is, there is currently no structural-energy storage integrated carbon fiber composite material that takes into account both excellent energy storage and bearing capacity.
[0003] From a technical point of view, solid structure electrolyte is a material that is responsible for both lithium ion conduction and the load transfer capacity of the entire multifunctional solid. Therefore, resin solid structure electrolytes with both high ionic conductivity and excellent mechanical properties are the key factors in preparing structural-energy storage integrated composite materials with excellent comprehensive performance. The all-solid polymer electrolytes currently studied have high mechanical properties due to the lack of solvents, but low ionic conductivity; gel polymer electrolytes have ionic conductivity similar to that of liquid electrolytes, but due to the presence of solvents, the electrolytes have poor mechanical properties. In response to the above problems, in 2010, Ji et al. (Ji J, Li B, Zhong WH. Simultaneously enhancing ionicconductivity and mechanical properties of solid polymer electrolytes via acopolymer multi-functional filler [J]. Electrochimica Acta, 2010, 55 (28): 9075-9082.) proposed the concept of dual continuous phase electrolytes, one phase provides mechanical properties and the other phase provides ion transport. However, dual-continuous phase solid electrolytes are basically based on epoxy resin, the resin matrix is of a single type, and the epoxy resin has a low temperature resistance grade, and still cannot meet the requirements of practical applications in terms of mechanical properties and ionic conductivity.

Compared with epoxy resin, the excellent flame retardancy of phthalonitrile resin can ensure the safety performance of structural energy storage materials during use. It has the following advantages: (1) Compared with the double-continuous phase solid electrolyte with epoxy resin as the matrix, the present invention has better heat resistance. In non-isothermal thermogravimetry, the T d5% decomposition temperature in air and nitrogen is above 360 °C, and the T d10% decomposition temperature is above 380 °C; (2) Cyano is a high dielectric constant group, which can promote the dissociation of lithium salts. When the proportion of liquid electrolyte is 50%, compared with the ionic conductivity of 0.0456 mS / cm and tensile strength of 373 MPa of the epoxy resin-based double-continuous phase solid electrolyte, the ionic conductivity of the phthalonitrile resin-based double-continuous phase solid electrolyte is as high as 0.674 mS / cm, and the tensile modulus is as high as 534 MPa, having high ionic conductivity and excellent mechanical properties.

[0078] Figure 1 are the infrared spectra of the phthalonitrile resin material prepared in Comparative Example 1 and the double-continuous phase solid electrolyte 3 with phthalonitrile resin as the matrix prepared in Example 3. The structure in the figure shows that the -CN peak of the phthalonitrile resin material prepared in Comparative Example 1 and the double-continuous phase solid electrolyte with phthalonitrile resin as the matrix prepared in Example 3 significantly weakens at 2230 cm -1 and at 1010 cm-1 、There are phthalocyanine and isoindoline peaks generated at around 1720 cm -1 . This indicates that the addition of the liquid electrolyte has no effect on the crosslinking and curing of the phthalonitrile resin.
[0079] Figure 2 is the differential scanning calorimetry spectrum of the phthalonitrile-based monomer of Comparative Example 1 and the cyanide liquid electrolyte precursor solutions of Examples 1, 2, and 3. The results in the figure show that: compared with Comparative Example 1, the addition of the liquid electrolyte in Examples 1, 2, and 3 shifts the curing peak of the phthalonitrile resin to the left, indicating that the liquid electrolyte has a catalytic effect on the curing of the phthalonitrile resin.
[0080] Figure 3 is the schematic diagram of the thermogravimetric curve of the bicontinuous phase solid electrolyte 3 based on the phthalonitrile resin prepared in Example 3. The results in the figure show that: in non-isothermal thermogravimetry, the T d5% decomposition temperature of the solid electrolyte 3 in air and nitrogen is above 360 °C, and the T d10% decomposition temperature is above 380 °C. This indicates that the phthalonitrile bicontinuous phase solid electrolyte prepared in the present invention has excellent thermal stability.
[0081] Figure 4 is the scanning electron microscope schematic diagram of the bicontinuous phase solid electrolytes 1, 2, and 3 based on the phthalonitrile resin prepared in Examples 1, 2, and 3. The results in the figure show that: as the proportion of the liquid electrolyte increases, the porosity of the solid electrolyte increases, the pore diameter increases and the pores gradually become continuous, thus proving the formation of a bicontinuous structure, and the increase of the pores is beneficial to the transmission of the liquid electrolyte, thereby improving the ionic conductivity of the solid electrolyte.
[0082] Figure 5 is the electrochemical impedance schematic diagram of the bicontinuous phase solid electrolyte 3 based on the phthalonitrile resin prepared in Example 3. The test frequency range is 1000 kHz to 0.01 Hz, and the internal inset is the enlarged view of the high-frequency region. The intersection value of the curve of this figure with the abscissa is small, indicating that the solid electrolyte 3 has a small internal resistance. According to the formula, the ionic conductivity is as high as 0.674 mS / cm, indicating that the preparation obtained in the present invention has a high ion transport rate.
[0083] Figure 6 is the comprehensive schematic diagram of the tensile strength and ionic conductivity of the bicontinuous phase solid electrolytes 1, 2, 3, and 4 based on the phthalonitrile resin prepared in Comparative Example 1 and Examples 1, 2, 3, and 4. The results in the figure show that: as the proportion of the liquid electrolyte increases, the mechanical properties of the solid electrolyte decrease, and the ionic conductivity increases. When the proportion of the liquid electrolyte is too large, a three-dimensional skeleton cannot be formed during the curing of the phthalonitrile, resulting in poor mechanical properties.
[0084] Figure 7 Charge-discharge performance graph of the phthalonitrile bicontinuous phase solid electrolyte structure energy storage carbon fiber composite (single-layer battery) prepared in Example 5. The current density is 8.5 μA / mg. The results in the figure show that the charging capacity of the structure energy storage carbon fiber composite is 12.19 mAh / g, and the discharging capacity is 7.47 mAh / g, and normal charge and discharge can be achieved, indicating that the bicontinuous phase solid electrolyte based on phthalonitrile resin can be successfully applied to the structure energy storage carbon fiber composite and has good charge-discharge performance.
