Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of catalysts, and in particular to an Fe and N co-doped flower-shaped carbon material and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, the rapid development of smart communications devices and electric vehicles has spurred the development of next-generation rechargeable batteries, particularly new batteries with high energy density and lower costs. Among the many new battery systems being developed, lithium-sulfur (Li-S) secondary batteries, constructed with elemental sulfur as the positive electrode and metallic lithium as the negative electrode, boast a theoretical energy density of up to 2600 Wh / kg, far exceeding that of currently commercialized lithium-ion batteries. Furthermore, sulfur, with its abundant reserves, low cost, and environmental friendliness, is considered a promising candidate for the next generation of high-energy-density energy storage systems and has become a hot topic of research (Adv. Energy Mater, 2025, 2405890).

[0003] However, the Li-S battery system still faces many scientific problems, including: ① poor conductivity of elemental sulfur; ② the long-chain lithium polysulfide (Li2S x ) dissolves in the electrolyte, diffuses through the diaphragm to the negative electrode and reacts with it to form short-chain lithium polysulfide. Subsequently, some short-chain lithium polysulfide diffuses to the positive electrode area and is oxidized to become long-chain lithium polysulfide. This cycle leads to the formation of a "shuttle effect"; ③ The reaction kinetics of soluble long-chain lithium polysulfide converted into solid-phase Li2S2 / Li2S are slow, which hinders the reaction. The interaction and influence of these factors have seriously restricted the comprehensive performance improvement of Li-S batteries and the development of practical battery systems (Small, 2024, 20, 2309146.). To this end, researchers have also proposed a variety of improvement plans, among which diaphragm modification is one of the effective methods to improve the performance of Li-S batteries.

[0004] Using carbon materials to modify the separator is a common method. The carbon coating not only has excellent conductivity, but also has a developed pore structure that can adsorb Li2S x , hindering Li2S x However, pure carbonaceous materials and Li2S x The physical adsorption between them is weak, and it is difficult to effectively anchor polar Li2S during long cycles. x Furthermore, the researchers increased the polar sites of carbon materials by doping heterogeneous atoms (such as N, S, etc.) to improve the carbon-based materials and Li2S xThe interaction between the carbon matrix and the carbon substrate effectively suppresses the “shuttle effect.” Although the polarity of the carbon matrix can be effectively improved by introducing heteroatoms, the current heteroatom doping level is generally low. Even if the doping level can be increased through special design, high doping levels will reduce the conductivity of the carbon material and cause structural instability (Electrochim. Acta, 2024, 496, 144487.).

[0005] Studies have shown that highly dispersed metal atoms (such as Fe, Co, Ni, etc.)-nitrogen atoms co-doped carbon materials (MNCs) have abundant active sites, which can not only significantly adsorb the intermediate product lithium polysulfide, but also accelerate the redox conversion of lithium polysulfide, improve the conversion kinetics of sulfur, and enhance the electrical performance of Li-S batteries (J.Energy Chem., 2022, 73, 513-532.). Generally, the preparation of MNCs materials is obtained by cracking a mixture of metal salts, nitrogen sources and carbon sources and post-treatment (acid washing). However, during the high-temperature calcination process, it is difficult to avoid the agglomeration of the metal and the irregularity of the morphology, and the active sites cannot be exposed, which is not conducive to the high performance of the material; in addition, the preparation method usually obtains a low Fe atom doping amount. How to further improve the comprehensive performance of metal atom-nitrogen atom co-doped carbon materials is a difficult problem faced by this field.

[0006] In summary, there is an urgent need to develop a new technical solution to address the deficiencies in the existing technology. Summary of the Invention

[0070] Other components and steps are the same as those in Example 3.

[0071] Test Case

[0072] Test method:

[0073] (1) The Fe and N co-doped flower-structured carbon materials prepared in Examples 1-4 and the comparative example were characterized.

[0074] (2) Using the Fe and N co-doped flower-like carbon materials prepared in Example 3 and the comparative example as the separator modification material, a button cell was assembled with metallic lithium as the negative electrode and a sulfur / carbon material as the positive electrode (see Chem. Eng. J., 2021, 415, 129001). The device performance was tested.

[0075] The test results are as follows Figure 1-10 shown.

[0076] Figure 1 This is the XRD pattern of the precursor obtained in step S1 of Example 1-4.

[0077] Figure 2 This is the XRD pattern of the Fe and N co-doped flower-structured carbon material prepared in Example 1-4.

[0078] Figure 3 This is the XPS graph of the Fe and N co-doped flower-structured carbon material prepared in Example 3.

[0079] Figure 4 This is the fine spectrum of N and Fe elements of the Fe, N co-doped flower-structured carbon material prepared in Example 3;

[0080] in, Figure 4 (a) is the fine spectrum of N element; Figure 4 (b) is the fine spectrum of Fe element.

[0083] Figure 7 This is a rate performance diagram of the Fe and N co-doped flower-structured carbon material prepared in Example 3 as a membrane modification material.

[0084] Figure 8 This is a graph showing the 400-cycle long-cycle performance of the Fe and N co-doped flower-structured carbon material prepared in Example 3 as a diaphragm modification material.

[0085] Figure 9 This is a rate performance diagram of the Fe and N co-doped flower-structured carbon material prepared in comparative example as a diaphragm modification material.

[0086] Figure 10 This is a graph showing the 400-cycle long-cycle performance of the Fe and N co-doped flower-structured carbon material prepared in the comparative example as a diaphragm modification material.

[0087] according to Figure 1 It can be seen that with the addition of FeCl3, the diffraction peak of the complex Zn2Fe(CN)6 appears in the precursor, and with the increase of the amount of FeCl3 added, the intensity of the diffraction peak also increases, indicating that the condensation reaction of formamide molecules in the solvent thermal process forms a molecular chain containing rich C / N bonds, and further chelates the metal Zn 2+ with Fe 3+ ions, forming a complex Zn2Fe(CN)6, which effectively stabilizes the metal atoms.

[0088] according to Figure 2 As can be seen, when the FeCl3 addition amounts were 0.083, 0.166, and 0.333 mmol, two typical broad peaks of carbon appeared in the resulting product. When the addition amount was increased to 0.666 mmol, characteristic diffraction peaks of Fe / Fe3C appeared in the resulting product. These results indicate that the amount of iron source significantly affects the composition of the product.

[0089] according to Figure 3 It can be seen that when the addition amount of FeCl3 is 0.333 mmol, the obtained product contains C, N, O, and Fe elements, indicating that the preparation method of the present invention can achieve Fe and N co-doped carbon materials.

[0090] according to Figure 4 It can be seen that the present invention can achieve co-doping of N and Fe atoms, and can also adjust the composition of the obtained material by changing the content of the iron source.

[0091] according to Figure 5 It can be seen that the precursor prepared in the comparative example and the calcined product both exhibit irregular spherical structures, and the size of the calcined product is about 1 μm. This may be due to the excessive chlorine introduced into the zinc chloride affecting the morphology and structure of the product.

[0092] according to Figure 6 It can be seen that with the addition of FeCl3, an obvious flower-like structure is formed during the solvent thermal process, which should be the Fe 3+ 、Zn 2+ The ions coordinate with the polymerized polyformamide molecules to form a complex. After calcination, when the FeCl3 addition level is not high, the flower-like structure morphology is still maintained; when the addition level is too high, a tubular structure is generated. This is because the high content of metal can catalyze the formation of carbon nanotube structures under high temperature conditions.

[0093] according to Figure 7 、 8 It can be seen that the lithium-sulfur battery assembled with the separator modified with this material can discharge up to about 1190 mAh / g at a 0.2C rate, and after 400 cycles at a 0.5C rate, the capacity retention rate can still reach about 67%, showing stable rate and cycle performance.

[0094] according to Figure 9 、 10 It can be seen that the electrochemical catalytic performance of the Fe, N co-doped flower-structured carbon material prepared by replacing zinc gluconate with glucose and zinc chloride is not ideal, and the device performance is significantly reduced.
