[0197] Example 1

[0198] (1) Limiting the porosity ratio and pore volume V

Taking the lattice spacing of soft carbon as the standard value of 0.345 nm and the lattice spacing of hard carbon as the standard value of 0.39 nm, and letting the content of soft carbon phase be x and the content of hard carbon phase be y, the following equation can be obtained:

[0209] x+y=1

[0210] 0.345x + 0.39y = d

[0211] Where d is the value obtained by testing, the x and y values ​​can be obtained by solving the quadratic equation in one variable, and the results are recorded in Table 2.

After that, they were discharged to 1.5V with a constant current of 0.5Ah. The above process is recorded as one charge-discharge cycle. After three consecutive charge-discharge cycles, the average discharge capacity of the three cycles is recorded as C.

[0216] For lithium-ion batteries:

[0217] The 1Ah soft-pack battery prepared in Example 10 was charged at a constant current of 0.5Ah to 4.25V, and then charged at a constant voltage of 4.25V until the current decayed to 0.01Ah.

[0224] 2. Storage performance test

[0225] The 1Ah (design capacity) pouch cells prepared in each embodiment and comparative example were activated and capacity-tested according to the following steps:

[0226] For sodium-ion batteries and potassium-ion batteries:

[0227] The 1Ah soft-pack batteries prepared in Examples 1-9, Example 11, and Comparative Examples 1-3 were charged to 3.5V with a constant current of 0.5Ah, and then charged at a constant voltage of 3.5V until the current decayed to 0.01Ah. After that, they were discharged to 1.5V with a constant current of 0.5Ah. The above process is recorded as one charge-discharge cycle. After three consecutive charge-discharge cycles, the average discharge capacity of the three cycles is recorded as C.

[0228] For lithium-ion batteries:

[0229] The 1Ah soft-pack battery prepared in Example 10 was charged at a constant current of 0.5Ah to 4.25V, and then charged at a constant voltage of 4.25V until the current decayed to 0.01Ah. After that, it was discharged at a constant current of 0.5Ah to 2.5V. The above process is recorded as one charge-discharge cycle. After three consecutive charge-discharge cycles, the average discharge capacity of the three cycles is recorded as C.

[0230] The above-mentioned activated and capacity-graded pouch cells were subjected to the following storage performance tests:

[0231] At 25°C, the soft-pack battery that has undergone the above activation and capacity testing is calibrated with a 0.33C rate current and recorded as C0. Then, the battery is stored at a high temperature of 60°C. After that, the battery is taken out every 7 days and its capacity is tested at room temperature and recorded as C1, C2, ..., Cn. The number of days until Cn first falls below 80% of C0 is used as the standard for measuring storage capacity. The results are recorded in Table 3.

[0232] 3. Full charge expansion

[0233] (1) The thickness of the negative electrode sheet prepared in the example and the comparative example was measured with a micrometer and recorded as the initial thickness;

[0234] (2) For sodium-ion batteries and potassium-ion batteries

[0235] The 1Ah soft-pack batteries prepared in Examples 1-9, Example 11, and Comparative Examples 1-3 were charged with a constant current of 0.5Ah to 3.5V, and then charged with a constant voltage of 3.5V until the current decayed to 0.01Ah. After that, they were discharged with a constant current of 0.5Ah to 1.5V. The above process is recorded as one charge-discharge cycle. After two consecutive charge-discharge cycles, the batteries were charged with a constant current of 0.5Ah to 3.5V and then charged with a constant voltage of 3.5V until the current decayed to 0.01Ah. The batteries were then immediately moved back to the glove box and carefully disassembled.

[0236] For lithium-ion batteries:

[0237] The 1Ah soft-pack battery prepared in Example 10 was charged at a constant current of 0.5Ah to 4.25V, and then charged at a constant voltage of 4.25V until the current decayed to 0.01Ah. After that, it was discharged at a constant current of 0.5Ah to 2.5V. The above process is recorded as one charge-discharge cycle. After two consecutive charge-discharge cycles, the battery was charged at a constant current of 0.5Ah to 4.25V again, and then charged at a constant voltage of 4.25V until the current decayed to 0.01Ah. The battery was then immediately moved back to the glove box and carefully disassembled.

[0238] Then clean the electrode. Gently pick up the fully charged graphite electrode with tweezers and use lint-free paper to very gently absorb the residual electrolyte on the surface. Do not wipe it, so as not to damage the surface structure of the electrode or the SEI film.

[0239] Next, measure the thickness: Immediately use a micrometer to measure the thickness of the fully charged electrode at five points, including the four corners and the center of the rectangular electrode, and record the average value as the "full charge thickness".

[0240] (3) Calculate the full-fill expansion rate according to the following formula, and record the results in Table 3.

[0241] Full charge expansion rate = (Full charge thickness - Initial thickness) / Initial thickness × 100%

[0242] 4. Initial discharge capacity and initial coulombic efficiency

[0243] (1) The carbon composite material prepared in the examples and comparative examples was mixed with CMC, super P and SBR in a mass ratio of 95.5:1.5:1.5:1.5. The mixture was prepared into a slurry using NMP solvent. The slurry was then coated onto one surface of a copper foil using a scraper. After drying, a sheet was obtained. The sheet was then stamped into a film with a diameter of 16 mm.

[0244] Electrolytes of Examples 1-9 and Comparative Examples 1-3: EC, DMC and EMC were mixed in a volume ratio of 1:1:1, and then dried NaPF6 was added to prepare an electrolyte with a sodium salt concentration of 1 mol / L.

[0245] Electrolyte of Example 10: EC, DMC and EMC were mixed in a volume ratio of 1:1:1, and then dried lithium hexafluorophosphate was added to prepare an electrolyte with a lithium salt concentration of 1 mol / L.

[0246] Electrolyte of Example 11: EC, DMC and EMC were mixed in a volume ratio of 1:1:1, and then dried KPF6 was added to prepare an electrolyte with a potassium salt concentration of 1 mol / L.

[0247] (2) Place the nickel mesh in the center of the negative electrode shell, then place the lithium sheet (19 mm in diameter) flat in the center of the nickel mesh, use a pipette to add an appropriate amount of electrolyte to the center of the lithium sheet, then place the separator (PP separator, 26 mm in diameter) on the upper layer of the lithium sheet, add electrolyte again, and then place the membrane and positive electrode shell obtained in step (1) on the upper layer of the separator in sequence to assemble into a CR2430 button cell;

[0248] (3) The button cell obtained in step (2) was tested on the Blue Electric System, and the discharge capacity and initial coulombic efficiency were directly output. The results are shown in Table 3.

[0251] As can be seen from the data in Table 3, the carbon composite material provided by this invention, when applied to sodium-ion batteries, exhibits excellent cycle performance, with over 4700 cycles at 0.5C room temperature (attenuation to 80% SOH) and over 2500 cycles at 0.5C high temperature. It also has excellent storage performance and capacity, with a storage life of over 390 days and an initial discharge capacity of over 330mAh / g.

[0252] As can be seen from Examples 10 and 11, the carbon composite material of the present invention also exhibits good initial efficiency, cycle performance and storage performance when applied to lithium-ion batteries and potassium-ion batteries.

[0253] The carbon composite materials prepared in Comparative Examples 1 to 3 do not simultaneously meet the requirements of this invention in terms of the defined porosity ratio, pore volume, equivalent average pore diameter, and ultimate compaction.

[0254] The difference between Comparative Example 1 and Example 1 is that no pore-forming agent was added during the preparation process of Comparative Example 1. The resulting hard carbon composite material has very small defined porosity, pore volume, equivalent average pore size, and ultimate compaction, all of which are outside the scope of this invention. When applied to sodium-ion batteries, its 0.5C room temperature cycle count decreased by 33.1%, its 0.5C high temperature cycle count decreased by 40.2%, and its storage days decreased by 23.1%. It can be seen that the hard carbon composite material of Comparative Example 1 significantly deteriorates both the cycle performance and the storage days.

[0255] The difference between Comparative Example 2 and Example 1 is that the mass ratio of raw coal and pore-forming agent in Comparative Example 2 is not within the scope of this invention. The resulting hard carbon composite material has a larger defined porosity and pore volume, and a smaller ultimate compaction. When applied to sodium-ion batteries, its capacity performance, cycle performance, and storage performance are all reduced to a certain extent. Specifically, the initial discharge capacity decreased by 10.1%, the number of cycles at 0.5C room temperature decreased by 27.2%, the number of cycles at 0.5C high temperature decreased by 32.8%, and the number of storage days decreased by 18.5%.

[0256] The difference between Comparative Example 3 and Example 1 is that Comparative Example 3 has a different coking value and a different nitrogen flow rate (and cooling rate). The flow rate is smaller, that is, the cooling rate is slower. The resulting hard carbon composite material has a smaller defined porosity and pore volume, and a larger ultimate compaction. When it is applied to sodium-ion batteries, the capacity performance, cycle performance and storage performance are reduced to a certain extent. Specifically, the initial discharge capacity decreased by 10.1%, the number of cycles at 0.5C room temperature decreased by 22.0%, the number of cycles at 0.5C high temperature decreased by 30.4%, and the number of storage days decreased by 23.1%.

[0257] The mass ratio of raw coal to pore-forming agent differs in Examples 1-3. A higher proportion of pore-forming agent is more beneficial for improving the defined porosity, pore volume, and equivalent average pore size. When the mass ratio of raw coal to pore-forming agent increases from 4:1 to 2:1, both cycle performance and storage performance are improved. Examples 1 and 7 use different types of pore-forming agents, indicating that using sodium iron oxalate as a pore-forming agent is more beneficial for improving battery performance.

[0258] The asphalt in Examples 1, 4, and 5 has different coking values. A higher coking value is more beneficial for improving ultimate compaction. When the coking value increases from 15% to 23%, both cycle performance and storage performance improve. Examples 1 and 8 use different types of hard carbon sources, indicating that using asphalt as a hard carbon source has a more significant advantage in high-temperature cycle performance. Examples 1 and 9 use different amounts of hard carbon source, showing that excessive amounts of hard carbon source are detrimental to battery cycle performance and storage performance.

[0259] The specific embodiments described above further illustrate the purpose, technical solution, and beneficial effects of the present invention. It should be understood that the above descriptions are merely specific embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
