Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of sodium ion batteries, in particular to a sodium ion battery electrolyte and a sodium ion battery. BACKGROUND

[0002] As a potential substitute for lithium ion batteries, sodium ion batteries have attracted much attention due to their abundant sodium resources and low cost. As a core component of the battery, the electrolyte directly affects the electrochemical performance, safety and life of the battery. The electrolyte of the sodium ion battery mainly consists of sodium salt, organic solvent and additive. The main problems are as follows:

[0003] (1) The sodium ion battery usually needs to be aged after the liquid injection process, which is to promote the infiltration of the electrolyte on the surface of the electrode sheet. The aging process is generally carried out at high temperature, and the aging time is more than 36h. Therefore, the production energy consumption of the aging process is high, and the time cost is high. It increases the manufacturing cost of sodium ion batteries, which is not conducive to large-scale production.

[0004] (2) The existing electrolyte additives form a CEI film with special protective effect on the surface of the positive electrode during the first charging (formation) stage of the battery, thereby avoiding the continuous decomposition of the electrolyte. However, these additives cannot avoid the side reactions of electrolyte solvent molecules on the electrode surface, so the formed CEI film is too thick, the sodium ion conductivity is reduced, the battery resistance is increased, and a part of the active capacity of the positive electrode is irreversibly lost, ultimately resulting in low first coulomb efficiency of the battery, and reducing the reversible capacity and energy density of the sodium ion battery.

[0005] (3) The side reactions of sodium ion electrolyte solvent molecules on the electrode surface produce a series of organic by-products, hydrogen gas, short-chain alkanes, alkenes and other gases, which destroy the stability of the electrode electrolyte interface, resulting in a decrease in the reversible capacity of the battery; the generated gas will cause the battery to swell and bulge, which poses a safety hazard.

[0006] Therefore, it is urgent to improve the composition of the electrolyte of the sodium ion battery to improve the electrochemical performance of the sodium ion battery while reducing the gas production of the battery.

[0007] In view of this, the present application is proposed. SUMMARY

[0008] The purpose of the present application is to provide a sodium ion battery electrolyte and a sodium ion battery, which aims to improve the electrochemical performance of the sodium ion battery while reducing the gas production of the battery.

[0017] In an optional embodiment, in the sodium-ion battery electrolyte, the solvent has a mass fraction of 78%-85%, the sodium salt has a mass fraction of 10%-20%, the first additive has a mass fraction of 0.2%-1.0%, and the second additive has a mass fraction of 1.0%-4.0%.

[0018] In an optional embodiment, the solvent is selected from at least one of vinyl carbonate, propylene carbonate, butylene carbonate, dimethyl carbonate, diethyl carbonate, methyl ethyl carbonate, methyl propyl carbonate, tetrahydrofuran, 1,3-dioxolane, ethylene glycol dimethyl ether, ethylene glycol diethyl ether, diethylene glycol dimethyl ether, triethylene glycol dimethyl ether, tetraethylene glycol dimethyl ether, trimethyl phosphate and triethyl phosphate.

[0019] In an optional embodiment, the solvent is a mixed solvent formed by vinyl carbonate and diethyl carbonate, and the volume ratio of the vinyl carbonate to the diethyl carbonate is 1:(0.5-1.5).

[0020] In an optional embodiment, the sodium salt is selected from at least one of sodium hexafluorophosphate, sodium perchlorate, sodium tetrafluoroborate, sodium nitrate, sodium acetate, sodium triflate, sodium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide, sodium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide, and sodium difluoro(oxalato)borate.

[0021] In a second aspect, the present application provides a sodium ion battery comprising the sodium ion battery electrolyte of any one of the preceding embodiments.

[0022] The present application has the following beneficial effects: the present application uses a novel organic anion sodium salt with conjugated estrogen as a mother nucleus as an additive, which can make the formed CEI interface film have high sodium ion conductivity and good toughness, is conducive to reducing the battery interface impedance, and improves the electrochemical performance of the sodium ion battery; during the formation process, due to the self-assembled adsorption layer formed by the additive molecules at the interface, solvent molecules cannot contact the electrode, so that the solvent molecules are prevented from participating in the formation of the CEI, and therefore the gas production of the battery can be reduced, and the cycle stability and safety of the sodium ion battery are improved. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the embodiments of the present application more clear, the technical scheme of the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below. If the specific conditions are not specified in the embodiments, the conventional conditions or the conditions recommended by the manufacturer are used. If the reagents or instruments used are not specified by the manufacturer, they are all conventional products that can be purchased on the market.

[0024] The embodiments of the present application provide a sodium ion battery electrolyte, which comprises a solvent, a sodium salt and a first additive, and the structural formula of the first additive is:

[0025]

[0026] In the formula, R1, R2, R3 and R4 are each independently selected from any one of (C1-C6)alkyl, alkenyl, alkynyl, aryl, ether, ester, halogen, amino, nitro, cyano, amide, sulfonic acid, etc., and R1, R2, R3 and R4 can be the same or different and can be any one of the above independently.

[0027] It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application use a novel organic anion sodium salt with conjugated estrogen as a mother nucleus as an additive, and the organic anion part of the additive moves to the surface of the positive electrode by electromigration, and then the conjugated part in the additive interacts with the SP 2The pi electrons on the track form a conjugated electron environment, so that the additive molecules are chemically adsorbed on the electrode surface to form a molecular adsorption layer. Therefore, during the first charging process, the adsorbed additive molecules will preferentially decompose into a film. In addition, the sulfonic acid anion group on the benzene ring has high reactivity and will decompose to form inorganic substances such as Na2S / Na2SO4 / Na2SO3. The double bond part in the parent nucleus will eventually form an inorganic-organic hybrid CEI interface film through self-polymerization. This layer interface has high sodium ion conductivity and good toughness. The following advantages are provided:

[0028] (1) This special interaction can enhance the affinity between the electrolyte and the electrode interface, promote the rapid wetting of the electrolyte on the positive and negative electrode surfaces, shorten the battery aging time, reduce the aging temperature, reduce the production cost, and improve the production efficiency.

[0029] (2) The molecular layer formed during the battery formation process preferentially participates in film formation. The sulfonic acid anion in the structure of the additive decomposes into a film during the film formation process and combines with sodium ions to form inorganic sodium salts, while the main body of the additive molecule decomposes to form organic interface components, ultimately forming an inorganic-organic hybrid CEI interface film, further improving the sodium ion conductivity of the CEI, reducing the battery interface impedance, and improving the electrochemical performance of the sodium ion battery.

[0030] (3) During the formation process, due to the self-assembled adsorption layer formed by the additive molecules on the interface, solvent molecules cannot contact the electrode, thereby avoiding the participation of solvent molecules in the formation of the CEI. Therefore, the amount of gas produced by the battery can be reduced, and the cycle stability and safety of the sodium ion battery can be improved.

[0031] In some embodiments, the mass fraction of the first additive is 0.1%-5.0%, such as 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.5%, 1.0%, 2.0%, 3.0%, 4.0%, 5.0%, etc., and preferably 0.2%-1.0%. The mass fraction of the first additive in the electrolyte is preferably controlled within the above range to further improve the electrochemical performance of the battery while reducing the amount of gas produced.

[0032] In some embodiments, the sodium ion battery electrolyte further includes a second additive selected from at least one of vinyl carbonate (VC), fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC), 1,3-propanesulfonic acid lactone (PS), vinyl sulfate (DTD), acetonitrile (AN), and succinonitrile (SN). The first additive provided in the embodiments of the present application can better cooperate with the above several commonly used sodium ion battery electrolyte additives, which is conducive to further improving the electrochemical performance of the sodium ion battery.

[0033] In preferred embodiments, the second additive comprises vinylene carbonate, vinyl sulfate and succindionitrile, and the mass ratio of vinylene carbonate, vinyl sulfate and succindionitrile is 1:(0.5-1.5):(0.3-0.8), such as 1:0.5:0.3, 1:0.8:0.5, 1:1.0:0.6, 1:1.2:0.7, 1:1.5:0.8, etc. By optimizing the composition of the second additive, the electrochemical performance of the sodium-ion battery is more optimal after being used in cooperation with the first additive.

[0034] In some embodiments, in the sodium-ion battery electrolyte, the mass fraction of the solvent is 60%-85%, the mass fraction of the sodium salt is 10%-30%, the mass fraction of the first additive is 0.1%-5.0%, and the mass fraction of the second additive is 0.1%-5.0%. The content of each component is more suitable within the above range, and if the amount of the additive is too large or too small, it is not conducive to the improvement of the electrochemical performance of the battery. Preferably, in the sodium-ion battery electrolyte, the mass fraction of the solvent is 78%-85%, the mass fraction of the sodium salt is 10%-20%, the mass fraction of the first additive is 0.2%-1.0%, and the mass fraction of the second additive is 1.0%-4.0%. By optimizing the amount of the solvent, the sodium salt, the first additive and the second additive, it is beneficial to further reduce the gas production and improve the cycle stability of the battery.

[0035] Specifically, the mass fraction of the solvent can be 60%, 70%, 78%, 80%, 85%, etc.; the mass fraction of the sodium salt can be 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, etc.; the mass fraction of the first additive can be 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.5%, 1.0%, 2.0%, 3.0%, 4.0%, 5.0%, etc.; and the mass fraction of the second additive can be 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.5%, 1.0%, 2.0%, 3.0%, 4.0%, 5.0%, etc.

[0036] In some embodiments, the solvent is selected from at least one of vinyl carbonate (EC), propylene carbonate (PC), butylene carbonate (BC), dimethyl carbonate (DMC), diethyl carbonate (DEC), methyl ethyl carbonate (EMC), methyl propyl carbonate (MPC), tetrahydrofuran (THF), 1,3-dioxolane (DOL), ethylene glycol dimethyl ether (DME), ethylene glycol diethyl ether (DEE), diethylene glycol dimethyl ether (G2), triethylene glycol dimethyl ether (G3), tetraethylene glycol dimethyl ether (G4), trimethyl phosphate (TMP) and triethyl phosphate (TEP), and the solvent of the electrolyte can be any one or several of the above.

[0037] In a preferred embodiment, the solvent is a mixed solvent formed by ethylene carbonate and diethyl carbonate, and the volume ratio of ethylene carbonate and diethyl carbonate is 1:(0.5-1.5), such as 1:0.5, 1:0.8, 1:1.0, 1:1.3, 1:1.5, etc. By optimizing the composition of the solvent, the electrolyte can be better infiltrated into the electrode sheet, and the aging time can be reduced.

[0038] In some embodiments, the sodium salt is selected from at least one of sodium hexafluorophosphate (NaPF6), sodium perchlorate (NaClO4), sodium tetrafluoroborate (NaBF4), sodium nitrate (NaNO3), sodium acetate (NaOAc), sodium triflate (NaOTf), sodium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (NaFSI), sodium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide (NaTFSI), and sodium difluoro(oxalato)borate (NaDFOB), and the sodium salt in the electrolyte can be any one or several of the above.

[0074] Test Example 1

[0075] The performance of the prepared sodium-ion battery electrolyte of the test examples and the comparative examples was tested, and the results are shown in Tables 1, 2 and 3.

[0076] Battery preparation method:

[0077] Preparation of the positive electrode: the positive electrode powder sodium iron pyrophosphate phosphate (NFPP) and conductive carbon black (SP), binder polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) were uniformly dispersed in N-methyl pyrrolidone (NMP) in a mass ratio of 96:1.2:2.8 to obtain a positive electrode active material slurry with a solid content of 60-65%, and then the positive electrode active material slurry was uniformly coated on both sides of the aluminum foil current collector.

[0078] Preparation of the negative electrode: hard carbon and conductive carbon black (SP), binder polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) were uniformly dispersed in N-methyl pyrrolidone in a mass ratio of 96:1:3 to obtain a negative electrode active material slurry with a solid content of 60-65%, and then the negative electrode active material slurry was uniformly coated on both sides of the aluminum foil current collector.

The bare cell was placed in an aluminum plastic film outer package to obtain a dry cell. Subsequently, the processes of liquid injection, aging, formation and aging were carried out to obtain the finished battery.

[0081] Table 1 first cycle data of comparative examples and examples

[0082]

[0083]

[0084] As shown in Table 1, the discharge capacity of the sodium-ion battery of Example 1 using the electrolyte described in the example is significantly better than Comparative Examples 1 and 2, and the first cycle coulombic efficiency is increased to 84.30%. In addition, increasing (Examples 2, 7) or decreasing (Examples 3, 6) the content of the first additive can still increase the first discharge capacity of the battery. Examples 4 and 5 prove that introducing other functional groups to the conjugate additive mother nucleus can also improve the electrochemical performance of the sodium-ion battery. Examples 8, 9 and 10 show that changing the content and type of the second additive has little effect on the conjugate additive, and the first cycle coulombic efficiency of the battery is significantly higher than that of the comparative example.

[0085] Table 2 Comparative example and example room temperature cycle data

[0087] As shown in Table 2, the electrolyte of Examples 1-10 exhibits a high capacity retention rate (>94%) in the long cycle test. In contrast, the reversible capacity of the electrolyte without the first additive decreases to less than 85% after cycling, with a capacity decay of more than 15%. This further proves that the additive can form a self-assembled protective layer on the electrode surface by conjugation with the electrode surface, which hinders the redox side reaction of the solvent molecules, thus effectively improving the cycle ability of the battery.

[0090] As shown in Table 3, due to the protective effect of the additive, the battery gas production problem is effectively inhibited, and after 7 days of high temperature (45°C) storage, the gas production of Examples 1-10 is only ~12 mL. On the contrary, due to the continuous contact reaction of the solvent molecules with the electrode surface, the gas production volume of Comparative Examples 1 and 2 is about twice that of the examples, and more than 20 mL of byproduct gas is produced.

For those skilled in the art, the present application can have various modifications and changes. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
