Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a method for preparing Prussian blue sodium battery cathode material by transition metal ion doping, belonging to the technical field of sodium-ion battery cathode materials. Background Technology

[0002] The development of cathode materials is a key factor in sodium-ion battery research, as they largely determine the overall energy density and cycle life of the battery. Iron-based Prussian blue analogues (Fe-PBA, chemical formula Na2Fe[Fe(CN)6]) have attracted considerable attention due to their open framework structure and high theoretical capacity (~170 mAh / g). However, their practical application has long been limited by the following inherent drawbacks: (1) Lattice defects lead to deterioration of sodium ion transport kinetics: In Fe-PBA materials prepared by the traditional co-precipitation method, the Fe(CN)6 vacancy defect rate is as high as 15%-20%, which seriously hinders the diffusion channels of sodium ions. Moreover, during the charging and discharging process, defect sites will cause local stress concentration, which accelerates the pulverization of materials.

[0003] (2) Residual water of crystallization causes structural collapse: Fe-PBA crystals are prone to encapsulating large amounts of water of crystallization. These water molecules cause harm in the following two ways: Electrochemical side reactions: Under high voltage (>3.5V vs Na) + / Na) decomposes into OH- - It reacts with the electrolyte to form an inert interface layer (such as Na2CO3), which leads to increased interfacial impedance and deterioration of mechanical stability: the dehydration-rehydration process causes lattice volume fluctuations.

[0004] (3) Irreversible phase transition during cycling: Fe-PBA undergoes a transformation from cubic phase (Na2FeFe(CN)6) to sodium-depleted phase (NaFeFe(CN)6) during sodium ion insertion / extraction. Due to insufficient Fe-N bond strength (bond energy approximately 250 kJ / mol), this phase transition is accompanied by lattice distortion.

[0005] Although researchers have attempted to improve the performance of Fe-PBA through transition metal doping (such as Mn and Co) or surface coating, a key bottleneck remains: poor dopant element matching, particularly with Mn. 2+ (Ionic radius 0.83 Å) and Fe 2+ The radius difference of (0.78Å) is >6%; the introduction of lattice stress leads to insufficient process controllability of crack generation, and conventional co-precipitation methods are difficult to precisely control the nucleation rate; the material has a wide particle size distribution and the dehydration process is crude. Although direct high-temperature calcination (>300℃) can remove crystal water, it leads to the decomposition of CN skeleton and a decrease in specific surface area. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the aforementioned technical problems of Prussian blue sodium cathode materials, this invention provides a method for preparing Prussian blue sodium cathode materials by transition metal ion doping. This method reduces lattice defects through metal doping with matching ion radii, precisely controls the crystal nucleation rate by complexing agent-assisted co-precipitation to improve morphological uniformity, and selectively removes adsorbed water and lattice water through gradient heat treatment to enhance the cycle stability of the cubic phase structure.

The mixture is then aged at room temperature for 12~48h, and the solid and liquid are separated. The solid is washed with deionized water and anhydrous ethanol in sequence, and then dried under vacuum to obtain the precursor. (4) The precursor is heat-treated under a protective atmosphere to obtain a Prussian blue sodium cathode material with transition metal ion doping control.

[0008] Preferably, in step (1), the molar ratio of the complexing agent added to sodium ferrocyanide is 1~1.7:1, the molar ratio of sodium salt to sodium ferrocyanide is 0.8~17:1, and the concentration of sodium ferrocyanide in solution A is 0.05~0.1mol / L.

[0009] Preferably, the complexing agent in steps (1) and (2) is sodium citrate, disodium ethylenediaminetetraacetate, sodium pyrophosphate, or sodium acetate, and the sodium salt is sodium nitrate, sodium chloride, or sodium sulfate.

[0010] Preferably, the iron salt in step (2) is one or more of ferric chloride, ferric sulfate, ferric nitrate, and ferric acetate, and the transition metal salt is one or more of Ni, Cu, Co, and Zn.

[0011] More preferably, the transition metal salt is one or more of chloride, sulfate, nitrate, and acetate.

[0012] Preferably, the molar ratio of the transition metal salt in step (2) to the sodium ferrocyanide in step (1) is 1.5~4.0:10.

[0013] Preferably, the molar ratio of iron salt to sodium ferrocyanide in step (2) is 0.6~0.8:1, the molar ratio of the amount of complexing agent added to iron salt is 20~50:15, and the molar ratio of sodium salt to iron salt is 1.5~3:1.

[0014] Preferably, the concentration of iron salt in solution B in step (2) is 0.035~1.7 mol / L.

[0015] Preferably, in step (3), the dropping rate of solution B is 25~38 ml / h; the vacuum drying temperature is 60~85℃, and the time is 12~18h.

[0016] Preferably, the protective atmosphere in step (4) is nitrogen or an inert gas, the heat treatment temperature is 135~180℃, and the time is 15~20h.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this invention are: (1) The present invention uses a complexing agent-assisted coprecipitation method to improve structural stability and cycle performance by precisely controlling the molar ratio of iron salt and copper salt; (2) This invention uses three strategies in synergy: transition metal ion doping, complexing agents (reduction / complexation), and sodium salts (ionic strength / co-ionizing agents) to achieve multi-dimensional and precise control of Prussian blue analogue (PBAs) synthesis. The complexing agent slows down the reaction kinetics through complexation, reducing lattice vacancies from the source; the sodium salt utilizes high Na+... + The concentration is stable and the open framework inhibits defect generation; the doped ions directly occupy the vacancy sites, and the three form a defect eradication closed loop of "reaction inhibition-environmental stabilization-physical filling", resulting in a near-ideal stoichiometry and ultra-low water content structure. (3) The synergistic effect of this invention endows PBAs with ultra-high specific capacity (retaining all active sites + doping with multi-electron reaction), excellent rate performance (unobstructed ion channels + pre-sodiumization optimized diffusion), and ultra-long cycle life (defect / water content approaching zero + lattice strengthening). At the same time, by flexibly customizing the voltage platform and functional characteristics through doping, it establishes itself as the "gold standard" for high-performance sodium battery cathodes. (4) Compared with single-element iron-based Prussian blue, the Prussian blue sodium electrode material of the present invention, which is controlled by transition metal ion doping, reduces structural distortion and improves cycle stability; moreover, the preparation process is simple, the required equipment is not complicated, and the raw material cost is low, which makes the material have great potential for industrial production; the present invention combines laboratory-level defect control strategy (transition metal doping / complexing agent / sodium salt synergy) with industrial-friendly process, which solves the biggest bottleneck in the industrialization of Prussian blue material (short lifespan caused by structural defects).

The co-precipitation reaction was carried out for 8 h under nitrogen atmosphere, temperature of 25 °C and stirring. The mixture was then aged at room temperature for 24 h. The solid and liquid were separated. The solid was washed three times each with deionized water and anhydrous ethanol and then dried under vacuum at 80 °C for 12 h to obtain the precursor. (4) The precursor was heat-treated at a protective atmosphere (argon atmosphere) and a temperature of 180°C for 18 hours to obtain a transition metal ion doped Prussian blue sodium cathode material, denoted as FeCu-PBA1.

[0021] Comparative Example 1: The difference between the comparative example and Example 1 is that the molar amount of transition metal salt (CuSO4·5H2O) in step (2) is completely replaced with iron salt (FeSO4·7H2O) to prepare Prussian blue sodium electrode material, denoted as FeCu-PBA0.

[0022] Example 2: The difference between this example and Example 1 is that the molar ratio of transition metal salt (CuSO4·5H2O) to sodium ferrocyanide in step (1) is 3:10, and the molar ratio of iron salt (FeSO4·7H2O) to sodium ferrocyanide in step (1) is 7:10; Prussian blue sodium electrode material was prepared and denoted as FeCu-PBA2.

The mass ratio of active materials, SuperP carbon black (conductive additive), and PVDF in the mixture was 7:2:1. N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) solvent was gradually added and stirred to obtain a uniformly dispersed cathode slurry. The cathode slurry was uniformly coated onto a clean aluminum foil current collector, and the N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone solvent was removed by vacuum drying to obtain an electrode film. The electrode film was subjected to cold pressing to improve the adhesion between particles, and then stamped into a disc electrode. The average mass loading of the active material (Prussian blue sodium cathode material) on the disc electrode was 1.2~1.5 mg / cm³. 2 The disk electrode was quickly transferred to an argon-filled glove box (H2O / O2<0.1ppm), and a CR2032 button cell was assembled using sodium metal as the counter electrode and glass fiber as the positive electrode.

The capacity retention graphs of the Prussian blue sodium cathode materials in Comparative Examples and Examples 1-3 at a current density of 0.5C are shown below. Figure 3 The initial specific discharge capacity of the undoped comparative sample was 132.63 mAh g. −1 However, after 200 cycles, only 38% of the capacity was retained, mainly due to structural degradation caused by lattice water and Fe. 2+ Dissolve; Cu 2+ The doped electrodes of Examples 1-3 exhibited significantly enhanced stability, attributed to reduced lattice water content and enhanced framework structure; specifically, the Cu-doped Prussian blue sodium cathode material with a molar amount of 20% in Example 1 achieved an initial capacity of 151.81 mAh g⁻¹. −1 The initial capacities of the Cu-doped Prussian blue sodium cathode materials in Example 2 (30% molar content) and Example 3 (40% molar content) were relatively low (148.61 mAh g⁻¹, respectively). −1 and 120.39mAhg −1 This may be due to an excess of non-reactive Cu. 2+ Occupying redox-active Fe sites, hindering Na + Intercalation / delamination kinetics, SEM image of Prussian blue sodium cathode material after 200 cycles in Example 1 is shown below. Figure 4 ,from Figure 4 As can be seen from the data, the Prussian blue sodium electrode material exhibits good particle morphology and minimal surface erosion after cycling, demonstrating excellent structural integrity and resistance to cyclic degradation. Example 1: The charge-discharge curves of the Prussian blue sodium electrode material FeCu-PBA1 are shown in the figure. Figure 5 ,from Figure 5 It can be seen that FeCu-PBA1 has two distinct redox peaks in the 2.461-3.254 V range, which are attributed to the redox process of high-spin Fe (FeHS) coordinated with the nitrogen atom in the cyanide group; the voltage range above 3.5 V corresponds to the low-spin Fe (FeLS) Fe bonded to the carbon atom within the cyanide framework. 3+ / Fe 2+ Redox transition.
