Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of alkali metal batteries, and in particular to a sodium ion battery positive electrode active material and a preparation method thereof, and a sodium ion battery. Background Art
[0002] Among various energy storage technologies, sodium-ion batteries (Na-ion batteries) are a promising alternative to lithium-ion batteries due to their low cost, abundant sodium content, and compatibility with existing production equipment.
[0003] The cathode materials for sodium ion batteries include layered transition metal oxides, polyanionic compounds, Prussian blue analogs and organic materials. Among the many candidate materials, layered transition metal oxides (Na x TMO2) has obvious advantages such as high energy density, simple synthesis and low cost, and is a promising commercial cathode material for SiBs, especially NaO3 structure x TMO2 cathode materials have a relatively high initial sodium content (x≥0.8), which means they have a relatively high initial gram capacity. Although this type of material has obvious advantages in energy density and discharge capacity, its application is hindered by complex phase transitions, particle breakage, and side reactions with the electrolyte in the high voltage charge and discharge range, especially in fast charge mode, where the bulk transfer rate cannot keep up with the Na+ transfer caused by interfacial ion transfer. + Concentration gradients can exacerbate surface phase transitions. Therefore, interfacial modification of O3-structured sodium cathode materials to enhance stability has become a research focus. Summary of the Invention

[0060] In order to better explain the technical solution provided by this application, the technical solution will be described as a whole before the specific implementation methods are described.
[0061] In a first aspect, the present application provides a positive electrode active material for a sodium ion battery, the positive electrode active material for a sodium ion battery comprising a base material and a coating layer, wherein the coating layer is coated on the base material;
[0062] The chemical formula of the matrix material is Na a Ni x Fe y Mn z M 1-x-y-z O2, wherein 1.05≥a≥0.8, 1.0≥x>0, 1.0≥y>0, 1.0≥z>0, 1.0>1-xzy≥0; wherein the M element includes at least one of Cu, Zn, and Ti.
[0063] The coating layer includes a first coating layer and a second coating layer, wherein the second coating layer is coated on the first coating layer; the first coating element in the first coating layer includes at least one of Ca, W, Al, and Zr; and the second coating element in the second coating layer includes F.
[0064] The first coating layer belongs to the inner interface of the particle, and the elements used are W and Ca. 2+ The ionic radius of Na + Close to, occupying the oxygen octahedral coordination of the alkali metal layer can alleviate the slip of the transition metal layer caused by the electrostatic repulsion generated by the sodium ion escape, and reduce the volume change of the positive electrode material during the charge and discharge process, while W 6+ The ionic radius of Ni 2+ 、Mn 4+ 、Fe 2+ Close, more inclined to occupy the oxygen octahedral coordination of the transition metal, and the WO bond energy is stronger, which is conducive to shortening the interlayer spacing of the transition metal layer and expanding the interlayer spacing of the alkali metal layer. The thickness of the second coating layer is increased by using the more electronegative F - Ion replacement of O 2- , due to F - The greater electronegativity of the ions makes them more attractive to electrons from transition metals, shortening the ionic bond length of the F-TM and lengthening the Na-O bond, reducing the diffusion barrier for sodium ions. This increases the sodium ion diffusion rate in the first coating layer and further promotes the sodium ion deintercalation rate within the particle. This double-layer coating design and control mechanism not only maintains the surface ion transport rate but also addresses the surface phase transition problem (i.e., the transition from layered to spinel phase to salt rock phase) of the cathode material in a highly desodiumated state, preventing HF corrosion in the electrolyte and reducing the dissolution of transition metal elements.
[0065] In an optional embodiment, the thickness of the first coating layer is 0.5-20 nm; the thickness of the second coating layer is 0.1-0.5 nm.

[0067] Optionally, the thickness of the second coating layer may be 0.1 nm, 0.2 nm, 0.3 nm, 0.4 nm, 0.5 nm, or any value between 0.1-0.5 nm.
[0068] In an optional embodiment, the angle difference of the 003 characteristic peak of the sodium ion battery positive electrode active material is △≤0.2θ.
[0069] From a technical perspective, the position of the 003 peak directly reflects the c-axis parameters for layered oxides. Converted to interplanar spacing, the d value fluctuates by less than 0.0005 nm. Sodium-ion battery cathodes and active materials often have layered structures, and their (003) interplanar spacing directly influences the insertion and extraction kinetics and structural stability of Na⁺. A 003 peak shift of ≤0.2θ before and after charge and discharge indicates good structural stability.

[0214] The performance of the sodium ion batteries prepared in the examples and comparative examples of the present application is shown in Table 1:

[0216]
[0217] As can be seen from Table 1, the present invention compares each embodiment with comparative examples 1-3 by using O3 structure Na a Ni x Fe y Mn z M 1-x-y-z The double-layer coating on the surface of the O2 positive electrode material has a good first discharge specific capacity and a low initial DCR value. This is mainly because the surface diffusion rate of sodium ions is increased by anion doping, while the internal interface coating layer of W and Ca reduces the contact area between the electrolyte and the interior of the positive electrode material, thereby slowing down the occurrence of side reactions. The XRD spectra of the positive electrode materials of Example 1 and Comparative Example 2 after 1000 cycles are shown in Figure 2. Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 The XRD spectrum of the local magnification in the range of 16-17 is as follows Figure 4 As shown, compared with the 003 peak position in the XRD spectrum, the overall offset angle difference of the embodiment is ≤0.12, indicating that the double-layer coating effectively enhances the stability of the material crystal structure. Since the comparative example does not have a sophisticated coating design, the first discharge specific capacity and cycle capacity retention rate in the high voltage window are worse than those of the embodiment.
