Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of battery anode material technology, and in particular to a composite carbon anode material, anode, preparation method and application thereof. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of renewable energy and electric vehicles, lithium-ion batteries face challenges from lithium resource scarcity and rising costs. Sodium-ion batteries, due to the abundance, wide distribution, and low cost of sodium resources, have become a research hotspot in the energy storage field. However, the ionic radius of sodium ions is significantly larger than that of lithium ions, resulting in slow insertion / extraction kinetics and low capacity in traditional graphite anodes, which fails to meet practical needs. Therefore, developing high-performance sodium-ion battery anode materials has become a key technological breakthrough.
[0003] Hard carbon materials, due to their disordered microcrystalline structure and large interlayer spacing, can achieve high sodium storage capacity through mechanisms such as adsorption, intercalation, and pore filling, making them a mainstream candidate material for sodium-ion battery anodes. However, their disordered structure may lead to problems such as low initial coulombic efficiency and poor long-term cycling stability. Researchers have proposed a strategy of combining soft and hard carbon to achieve complementary advantages: hard carbon provides high-capacity sodium storage sites, while soft carbon constructs a continuous conductive network and suppresses structural collapse during cycling. For example, a core-shell structure (hard carbon as the core and soft carbon as the shell) can balance high capacity and interfacial stability, improving cycle life through synergistic effects. Nevertheless, the large-scale preparation process of composite materials and the screening of low-cost precursors remain key challenges in current research.
[0004] Patent CN202410780528.9 describes a soft-hard carbon composite negative electrode active material for sodium-ion batteries, its preparation method, and its application. The raw materials for preparing the composite negative electrode active material include asphaltene, carbonized reed straw, a pore-forming agent, and a sodium supplement. By using carbonized reed straw as the hard carbon, encapsulated within asphaltene soft carbon, a core-shell structure is formed. With the presence of the pore-forming agent and sodium supplement, the negative electrode active material has a high specific surface area and numerous active sites, resulting in batteries with advantages such as high specific capacity and low first-cycle loss. However, the preparation process requires the use of toluene as a solvent and a freeze-drying process to obtain the core-shell powder. After carbonization, it is thoroughly ground and sieved to obtain the soft-hard carbon composite negative electrode active material for sodium-ion batteries. The process of obtaining the core-shell structure is complex, and the final grinding is also required, making large-scale production difficult. Summary of the Invention

[0036] The samples obtained in the examples and comparative examples were tested using the following methods, and the data are listed in Table 1: (1) Nano-mesophase pitch particle size D v 50: Tested using Malvern Zetasizer (DLS); (2) Particle size D of composite carbon anode material v 50: Tested using a Baxter laser particle size analyzer; (3) Specific surface area: The specific surface area (BET) of the sample shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of GB / T 19587; (4) XRD pattern: The sample was scanned by XRD pattern.

The spectral information was obtained by analysis software such as HighScore Plus and Jade to obtain the interlayer spacing d corresponding to the (002) peak. 002 ; (5) Electrochemical performance testing of sodium-ion battery system: According to the composite carbon anode material:CMC:SBR:SP=95:1.5:2.5:1.0, after slurry preparation, coating, drying, and rolling, a coin cell was prepared, and the counter electrode was a sodium metal sheet. The first delithiation capacity and first coulombic efficiency performance of carbon material were tested. The coin cell was discharged at 0.1C to 0.05 V, discharged at a constant voltage of 0.05V to 0.01C, and left to stand for 10 min; then charged at 0.1C to 2.0 V and left to stand for 10 min to obtain the reversible specific capacity and the first coulombic efficiency; the cycle was repeated for 300 cycles to obtain the capacity retention rate after 300 cycles. Rate performance testing was conducted by discharging at 1 C to 0.01 V, then discharging at a constant voltage of 0.01 V to 0.01 C, and allowing it to stand for 10 min; charging at 1 C to 2.0 V, allowing it to stand for 10 min; discharging at 3 C to 0.01 V, then discharging at a constant voltage of 0.01 V to 0.01 C, and finally charging at 3 C to 2.0 V. The sodium intercalation capacity under 1 C and 3 C conditions was obtained, and the 3 C / 1 C ratio was obtained. This ratio represents the rate performance of the material. (6) Micro-area analysis of carbon materials was performed using a laser Raman spectrometer coupled with a laser wavelength of 532 nm. The obtained Raman spectra were analyzed, and R=I D / I G I D I represents the peak intensity value of peak D. G The peak intensity of peak G is given, and the Raman shift of peak D is at 1350 cm⁻¹. -1 Nearby, the Raman shift of peak G is at 1580 cm⁻¹. -1 The sample was scanned nearby, and the scanning results consisted of 100 single-point Raman spectra. The average value of the R value was obtained by statistical calculation.
[0037] Table 1 The data from the composite carbon anode material samples obtained in Examples 1-7 show that the D of the samples... v The micrometer diameter (μm) of the 50 series ranges from 6.5 to 9.6 μm, and the specific surface area ranges from 1.14 to 2.87 m². 2 / g, average interlayer spacing d 002The range is 0.3629-0.3815, the R value range is 0.74-1.06, the first reversible capacity range is 287.1-311.8 mAh / g, and the first coulombic efficiency range is 87.5-91.4%.
[0038] As can be seen from Examples 1-1 and 1-2, by raising the temperature to above the softening point of the mesophase asphalt, the mesophase asphalt melts, causing the asphalt to bind tightly with the hard carbon precursor (hard carbon) to form a core-shell structure. This helps to reduce the specific surface area, reduce sodium ion loss during the cycle, and improve the cycle performance.
[0039] In Examples 1-3 and 1-4, the temperature was raised to about 5-10°C below the softening point of the mesophase asphalt. The mesophase asphalt micro-melted to form nanospheres, which were tightly bonded to the hard carbon precursor. The nano-mesophase asphalt powder was wrapped on the surface of the hard carbon precursor due to micro-melting, forming a discontinuous asphalt layer.
[0040] Subsequently, by oxidizing the mesophase pitch, a cross-linking structure is introduced. During the subsequent high-temperature carbonization process, the mesophase pitch will not foam. After high-temperature carbonization, it is completely coated on the surface of the hard carbon precursor or hard carbon particles, ultimately forming a core-shell structure soft-hard carbon composite carbon anode material with a hard carbon core and a soft carbon shell.
[0041] Among them, the asphalt must be 100% mesophase asphalt. If the mesophase content is low, it will easily lead to insufficient soft carbon content in the shell layer, thus affecting the electrochemical performance. If the size of the nano-asphalt is too large, it will easily lead to uneven soft carbon coating. If the size of the nano-asphalt is too small, it will place too demanding requirements on the sand milling equipment and increase production costs. In addition, it is not conducive to the formation of soft carbon film.
[0042] Before being coated with nano-mesophase bitumen slurry, hard carbon precursor powder needs to undergo low-temperature carbonization treatment, with the organic matrix carbonization temperature being 450-650℃. If the first carbonization temperature of the hard carbon precursor powder is too high (high-temperature carbonization treatment), the soft carbon coating layer formed after coating the mesophase bitumen will have weak bonding strength with the hard carbon particles, thus affecting cycle life. This phenomenon is due to the significant shrinkage that occurs when bitumen undergoes high-temperature carbonization, while the hard carbon particles have already undergone high carbonization, leading to a mismatch in shrinkage between the two carbon precursors during high-temperature carbonization. Conversely, if the first carbonization temperature of the hard carbon precursor is too low (low-temperature carbonization treatment), the total content of non-carbon elements retained in the hard carbon precursor will be too high. During subsequent simultaneous high-temperature carbonization of the mesophase bitumen and the hard carbon precursor, the hard carbon precursor will release excessive gas due to heating, affecting the interfacial bonding between the soft carbon coating layer and the hard carbon particles, resulting in adverse effects.
[0043] The high-temperature carbonization temperature is 1250-1350℃. If the temperature is too high, the capacity will decrease significantly, causing the sodium-ion battery to exhibit low capacity. If the temperature is too low, the initial coulombic efficiency will be too low, thus affecting the overall energy density and cycle life of the sodium-ion battery.
[0044] In sodium-ion battery applications, core-shell carbon materials offer several advantages. The soft carbon shell, being easily graphitized, forms a continuous conductive network, reducing the overall electrode resistance. The hard carbon core serves as the main sodium storage component. The soft carbon shell directly contacts the current collector or conductive agent through surface coating, reducing interfacial electron transport losses. The chemically inert surface of the soft carbon facilitates the formation of a stable SEI film, minimizing capacity decay during cycling. Simultaneously, the core-shell structure buffers the sodium storage volume changes of the hard carbon through the mechanical flexibility of the soft carbon shell, forming a stable support structure and thus improving structural stability. Consequently, the cycle retention rate of the battery after 300 cycles is ≥87.5%.
[0045] By sand milling mesophase pitch using a sand mill, nano-sized mesophase pitch nano-slurry is obtained. The slurry is then mixed with a pre-carbonized hard carbon precursor. The hydrophobic chains of SDS are adsorbed onto the surface of the pre-carbonized hard carbon precursor or hard carbon particles. SDS is also adsorbed onto the surface of the nano-sized mesophase pitch. The hydrophilic sulfate ions face the aqueous phase, preventing particle aggregation through charge repulsion. SDS molecules achieve a dynamic equilibrium on the pitch and hard carbon surfaces. During the dispersion process, the particle surface is continuously covered with an active agent layer. Combined with physical dispersion methods such as mechanical stirring, the nano-sized mesophase pitch particles are dispersed on the hard carbon surface.
[0046] Data from Examples 1 and 5 show that the soft carbon d 002 As the carbonization temperature increases, the interlayer spacing decreases, the sp² carbon ratio increases, and a more ordered graphite-like microcrystalline structure is formed. High temperature causes the mesopores and some micropores of soft carbon to close, resulting in a decrease in specific surface area. The reduction in interlayer spacing is not conducive to sodium ion insertion and reduces capacity, but it is beneficial to improve the first efficiency.
[0047] As can be seen from the data of Examples 1 and 7, as the proportion of nano-asphalt slurry increases, the nano-asphalt particles attached to the core surface become more abundant. After melting, the nano-asphalt completely coats the surface of the hard carbon precursor (or hard carbon), resulting in a lower specific surface area of the carbon material. The soft carbon shell formed has more support when sodium ions are inserted and extracted, which is beneficial to cycle stability.
[0048] As can be seen from the data of Example 1 and Comparative Example 1, when micron-sized asphalt is used for coating, the micron-sized asphalt particles cannot completely cover the surface of the hard carbon precursor (or hard carbon) due to the particle size, resulting in an increased specific surface area. Therefore, the probability of particle adhesion increases during subsequent carbonization, which leads to an increase in the particle size of the carbon material and a decrease in the coating effect. During the sodium ion insertion and extraction process, more sodium ions are consumed, resulting in a decrease in the initial coulombic efficiency and cycle retention rate.
[0049] Data from Example 1 and Comparative Example 2 show that without direct carbonization after melting and oxidation, the specific surface area of the carbon material increases, the thickness of the soft carbon structure increases, and the core surface is not coated with soft carbon, resulting in a reduced coating effect and decreased initial coulombic efficiency and cycle retention rate.
[0050] Data from Example 1 and Comparative Example 3 show that mesophase pitch without an oxidation step and without stabilization treatment during subsequent high-temperature carbonization results in foaming. Consequently, the specific surface area of the carbon material increases, surface defects increase, and the initial coulombic efficiency and cycle retention rate are poor.

Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features.
