[0002] Ethylene (C2H4) as a marker gas in the gas production system of a lithium ion battery is mainly derived from the irreversible decomposition of a solid electrolyte interface (SEI) film of the lithium ion battery and a reduction reaction of a lithiated graphite negative electrode directly exposed to an electrolyte with ethylene carbonate (EC), ethylene gas as a marker gas of abnormal decomposition of the electrolyte on the negative electrode side will show a clear change trend in the very early stage of thermal runaway, and accounts for about 8% in the total gas production amount of the lithium ion battery in the whole life cycle, therefore, ethylene gas can be used as an important target gas for early safety monitoring of the battery.

[0003] The semiconductor type ethylene sensor has the advantages of simple preparation process and low cost, and is of great significance for monitoring ethylene gas released in the early stage of thermal runaway of the lithium battery. However, the traditional semiconductor ethylene sensor has the disadvantages of high working temperature (usually > 250 DEG C), large power consumption, long response recovery time, poor stability and being easily disturbed by environmental temperature and humidity. Therefore, it is urgent to develop an ethylene sensor with fast response and low power consumption to realize accurate early warning of thermal runaway of the lithium battery.

[0004] Therefore, development of an ethylene gas sensing material and device with high sensitivity, fast response and complex environment anti-interference ability can significantly improve the early warning ability of thermal runaway, and provide key data support for prolonging the cycle life of the battery and optimizing the risk control strategy of the energy storage system, and has important significance for building a whole life cycle battery safety guarantee system. The ternary heterojunction further improves the electron mobility by regulating the energy band structure of the interface, reduces the reaction energy barrier of the catalytic layer, and significantly enhances the response sensitivity to ethylene gas, thereby providing key technical support for early warning of thermal runaway of the lithium battery.

[0052] Step 2: Preparation of nano-Pt / PtO2 / SnO2 ternary heterostructure sensing material: Pretreated SnO2 powder was placed in a mortar and mixed with PtO2, then ground to obtain PtO2 / SnO2 sensing material. Subsequently, the ground PtO2 / SnO2 sensing material was sintered to obtain the Pt / PtO2 / SnO2 ternary heterostructure sensing material.

[0053] Example 3: Specific preparation process of sensitive materials based on Pt / PtO2 / SnO2 ternary heterostructure;

[0054] Step 1: Preparation of nano-SnO2 matrix material: 1.5071g of nano-tin dioxide powder was dispersed in a mixed solution of 40mL ethanol and 20mL deionized water. The suspension was sonicated for 1h using an ultrasonic cell disruptor at 57% power. Then, it was washed by centrifugation with alcohol and deionized water. The centrifuge parameters were set to 8000r / min, 3min each time, for 3 times. The white solid was then dried in an oven at 60℃ for 10h to obtain white powder. Finally, the obtained white powder was sintered in a muffle furnace at 600℃ for 3h to obtain the desired nano-SnO2 matrix material powder.

[0055] Step 2: Preparation of nano-Pt / PtO2 / SnO2 ternary heterostructure sensing material: 0.1507g of pretreated SnO2 powder was placed in a mortar and mixed with PtO2 at an atomic ratio of 1%, 3%, 5%, and 7%. Anhydrous ethanol was added to form a slurry, which was then manually ground for 6 minutes each time, for a total of 5 times, to obtain the PtO2 / SnO2 sensing material. The PtO2 / SnO2 sensing material was then sintered at 700℃ with a heating rate of 5℃ / min and a holding time of 2 hours. After furnace cooling, the Pt / PtO2 / SnO2 ternary heterostructure sensing material was obtained.

[0056] Example 4: Construction of an ethylene gas sensor based on a Pt / PtO2 / SnO2 ternary heterostructure sensitive material;

[0057] Step 1: Sensor fabrication: The Pt / PtO2 ternary heterostructure sensing material (after grinding and before sintering) is mixed with anhydrous ethanol and ground for 5 minutes to prepare a sensing material slurry. The slurry is then evenly coated onto an alumina ceramic tube printed with gold electrodes using a fine brush. The tube is then placed in a muffle furnace and sintered at 700°C. The heating rate of the muffle furnace is 5°C / min, and the sintering time is 2 hours.

[0058] Step 2: Sensor welding and aging: Next, the ceramic tube is soldered to the resin base. A Ni-Cr heating wire is inserted into the ceramic tube to provide the required operating temperature for the sensitive material. The resistance of the Ni-Cr heating wire is 27Ω. The sensor is placed on the aging table for aging. The aging voltage of the sensor is 4.40V and the aging time is 7 days. Finally, a C2H4 gas sensor based on a 700℃-3%Pt / PtO2 / SnO2 ternary heterostructure sensitive material is obtained.

[0059] Example 5: Basic characterization of the sensor's sensitivity to C2H4 gas;

[0060] Figure 1 (a) Shows the relationship curves between ethylene gas concentration and sensor devices modified with PtO2 atomic ratios of 1%, 3%, 5%, and 7% (1%-PtO2 / SnO2, 3%-PtO2 / SnO2, 5%-PtO2 / SnO2, and 7%-PtO2 / SnO2). Specifically, the sensor devices exhibit sensitivity to C2H4 gas concentrations of 300-3000 ppm at 120 °C show that the 3%-PtO2 / SnO2 sensing material exhibits the best sensitivity to ethylene gas. Subsequently, the 3%-PtO2 / SnO2 sensing material is sintered at 700 °C to obtain a 700 °C-3%-Pt / PtO2 / SnO2 sensing material. Figure 1(b) shows the relationship between the 3%-Pt / PtO2 / SnO2 sensitive material obtained by sintering at 600℃, 700℃, and 800℃ and the concentration of ethylene gas. That is, the sensitive response to C2H4 gas with a concentration of 300-3000ppm at a temperature of 120℃ shows that the 700℃-3% Pt / PtO2 / SnO2 sensitive material has the best sensitivity to ethylene gas.

[0061] Repeatability and selectivity tests of ethylene gas were performed on the 700℃-3% Pt / PtO2 / SnO2 sensitive material at 120℃. Figure 1 (c) is the response recovery time curve of the 700-3% Pt / PtO2 / SnO2 sensing material of the device at 120℃ to 500ppm ethylene gas. The response / recovery time of the sensor to 500ppm ethylene gas is 2.6s / 155.5s, which shows that the ternary heterojunction sensor has a fast response speed. Figure 1 (d) shows the five-cycle test curves of the device at 700℃-3% Pt / PtO2 / SnO2 against 500ppm C2H4 gas. It can be seen that this sensitive material exhibits rapid response and recovery to ethylene gas, as well as good repeatability. Furthermore, Figure 1 (e) is the selectivity test curve of the device at 700℃-3% Pt / PtO2 / SnO2 for 500ppm C2H4 and other interfering gases, which shows that the device has excellent selectivity for C2H4. Figure 1 (f) shows the long-term stability test curve of the 700℃-3%-Pt / PtO2 / SnO2 sensing material against 500ppmC2H4 at 120℃ for 30 days, indicating that the sensor has good stability.

[0062] Example 6: Monitoring gas generation in lithium-ion batteries using a ternary heterojunction gas sensor;

[0063] A polymer lithium-ion battery with a nominal voltage of 3.7V and a capacity of 1500mAh was placed in a forced-air drying oven and heated to 150℃ for 20 minutes to induce gas production. Upon contact with the lithium-ion battery and the resulting gas production, the sensor's resistance dropped significantly, indicating that the sensor can detect the gas production in real time. Furthermore, the gas sensor's resistance recovered to its initial value, demonstrating good resilience. This high-performance C2H4 gas sensor can assess the health of lithium-ion batteries by monitoring their gas production, which is significant in the field of lithium-ion battery safety monitoring.

[0064] Example 7: Monitoring gas generation during overvoltage thermal runaway of lithium-ion batteries using a ternary heterojunction gas sensor;

[0065] A polymer lithium-ion battery with a nominal voltage of 3.7V and a capacity of 1000mAh was overcharged to produce gas, and the gas produced by the lithium-ion battery was released by needle puncture. Figure 2 (b) shows the changes in battery temperature, voltage, and gas sensor resistance before the lithium-ion battery thermal runaway. It can be seen that the sensor resistance drops significantly after contact with the lithium-ion battery's gas generation, indicating that the sensor can achieve real-time detection of lithium-ion battery gas generation. Furthermore, Figure 2 (a) The sensitivity test curve of the 700-3%-Pt / PtO2 / SnO2 sensor to gas generation in a 1.5Ah lithium-ion battery further verifies the sensor's response performance to lithium-ion battery gas generation. This ternary heterojunction sensitive material gas sensor provides an early warning of 57s and 66s earlier than voltage and temperature sensors, respectively. Therefore, this high-performance C2H4 gas sensor can be applied to monitor thermal runaway gas generation in lithium-ion batteries, providing a critical safety intervention window for lithium-ion batteries and having significant application value for preventing thermal runaway and ensuring energy storage safety.
