Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of sodium batteries, and in particular to a negative electrode material for a sodium ion battery having a zinc cyanamide / zinc sulfide heterostructure, a preparation method and application thereof, and a sodium ion battery. Background Art

[0002] With the development of renewable energy and electric transportation, the global demand for efficient, safe, and low-cost energy storage systems is becoming increasingly urgent. Although lithium-ion batteries have achieved widespread application in portable electronic devices and electric vehicles, their sustainability in large-scale energy storage is severely constrained by limited lithium reserves, rising prices, and uneven geographical distribution. Sodium-ion batteries, due to their abundant sodium resources, low cost, and similar electrochemical properties to lithium, are becoming a promising technology to replace or complement lithium batteries.

[0003] In sodium-ion batteries (SIBs), anode materials play a critical role in overall battery performance. In recent years, anode material research has focused on overcoming the kinetic hysteresis and volume expansion issues caused by the large radius of sodium ions. Currently, the most studied anode material systems include hard carbon, metal oxides / sulfides, and alloys. Hard carbon, the anode with the greatest commercial potential, typically offers a reversible specific capacity of 250-300 mAh / g. Through pore manipulation and surface functional group modification, its first-cycle coulombic efficiency can be increased to over 88%, while also exhibiting excellent cycle life. However, challenges with hard carbon include poor rate capability and the risk of sodium precipitation at very low voltages (near 0 V) ​​under deep charging conditions. In contrast, metal oxides / sulfides and alloys (such as Sn, Sb, and Bi) offer higher theoretical capacities, but these materials generally suffer from severe volume expansion, structural pulverization, and poor cycling stability during Na-ion insertion and extraction. For example, although layered transition metal sulfides MoS2 have a high capacity of 400-600 mAh / g, their cycling stability is typically less than 500 cycles. Meanwhile, alloy metals such as tin and antimony can experience volume expansion rates exceeding 300% during charge and discharge, causing severe mechanical stress and electrode cracking, limiting their long-cycle performance. Therefore, developing new anode materials that combine high capacity, high rate performance, and excellent structural stability is of great significance for promoting the development of sodium-ion batteries.

[0004] The main technical challenges facing sodium-ion battery anode materials currently include: 1. How to effectively suppress the volume effect and structural collapse of high-capacity materials; 2. How to optimize the stability of the electrode / electrolyte interface and construct a uniform and stable SEI film; and 3. How to achieve low-cost, controllable, and scalable material preparation. Future development trends will focus on multi-scale collaborative design strategies, including atomic-level doping, nanostructuring, and micron-scale morphology, to promote the comprehensive performance improvement of sodium-ion battery anode materials.

[0005] In recent years, transition metal cyanamide compounds have attracted widespread attention due to their high theoretical specific capacity, low polarization and good reaction kinetics. However, this type of material still faces problems such as irreversible structural changes during the reaction, poor conductivity and rapid capacity decay during the charge and discharge process. In order to overcome the above challenges, constructing heterostructures has been proven to be a feasible and effective strategy. Heterostructures can effectively promote the rapid migration of electrons / ions, enhance structural stability and improve overall electrochemical performance by regulating the interface structure and electronic state of the material. However, there is a lack of a simple and effective in-situ construction method for heterostructures for this type of material. Summary of the Invention
