Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of secondary battery preparation technology, and in particular to a positive electrode sheet and a secondary battery. Background Technology

[0002] Secondary batteries, such as lithium-ion batteries, possess numerous advantages including high energy density, long cycle life, high nominal voltage, and low self-discharge rate. In recent years, they have been widely used in energy storage power systems for hydropower, thermal power, wind power, and solar power plants, as well as in various fields such as electric bicycles, electric motorcycles, electric vehicles, military equipment, and aerospace, demonstrating broad application prospects. These new application areas also place higher demands on the energy density, cycle performance, and rate performance of lithium-ion batteries.

[0003] The positive electrode plays a crucial role in lithium-ion batteries. Generally, the quality of the positive electrode determines its microstructure, which in turn affects the battery's internal resistance, rate capability, and cycle life. Currently, commonly used polyanionic positive electrode active materials (such as lithium iron phosphate) have advantages in safety, cycle life, and cost, but their energy density, intrinsic conductivity, and rate performance still need improvement, and they also suffer from transition metal dissolution during long cycles. In some systems that improve rate capability and cycle performance, conductive agents such as carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and vapor-grown carbon fibers (VGCF) are often added to the positive electrode to increase its conductivity; however, these materials have low dispersion uniformity. Commonly used dispersion methods, such as ultrasonic dispersion, high-speed shearing, and electrostatic dispersion using ultrafine grinding beads, can damage the material itself or introduce non-energy storage materials to some extent, thereby reducing the energy density of the lithium-ion battery. Therefore, how to optimize the positive electrode to improve the energy density and charge-discharge performance of lithium-ion batteries has become one of the challenges and bottlenecks in lithium-ion battery design.

[0034] Polyanion refers to non-metallic atoms forming negatively charged anions with oxygen through covalent bonds. These anions possess high structural stability and good coordination ability with transition metals. In secondary batteries, polyanion materials include lithium iron phosphate, lithium vanadium phosphate, lithium manganese iron phosphate, and composite sodium iron phosphate. Typical polyanion systems, such as lithium iron phosphate, suffer from poor rate performance and low-temperature performance due to the sluggish Li insertion / extraction kinetics. Furthermore, long-cycle cycling presents the problem of Fe dissolution, leading to exacerbated side reactions and significant capacity decay. The lithium manganese iron phosphate system suffers from the dissolution of both Mn and Fe under operating conditions, with harsh conditions (such as high temperatures) further intensifying the dissolution of transition metals. Composite sodium iron phosphate exhibits problems such as Fe dissolution and high solubility of the SEI (solid electrolyte interface) / CEI (chemical-electrochemical interface) film. Adding metal-organic framework materials to the cathode material layer can effectively capture dissolved metals in situ, reduce catalytic side reactions, and improve the composition of SEI / CEI by improving ion cross-interface transport kinetics, thereby optimizing the composition and enhancing the capacity performance of the secondary battery.

[0035] In addition, active metal ions (e.g., Li) + In secondary batteries, interfacial migration of active metal ions requires the removal of coordinating solvents. This process necessitates overcoming a high energy barrier of 50 kJ / mol to 70 kJ / mol for interfacial charge transfer. Therefore, compared to bulk transport within the electrode and electrolyte, desolvation is generally considered the main energy-consuming step in the transport of active metal ions. The inventors of this application have discovered that the positive electrode material layer includes a metal-organic framework (MOF) material doped with metal elements. On one hand, the porous structure of the MOF material facilitates the removal of active metal ions from the weakly coordinating solvent on the outer layer. On the other hand, the metal doping sites within the MOF material promote the dissociation of the strongly coordinating solvent in the inner layer of the active metal ions. This "assembly line" synergistic desolvation mechanism improves the rate of interfacial transport of active metal ions, enhancing the fast-charging and cycle performance of the secondary battery. Simultaneously, the abundant polar groups on the surface of the metal-doped MOF material exhibit high affinity for the electrolyte, and the porous structure allows for rapid electrolyte conduction, facilitating the wetting of the positive electrode by the electrolyte. Furthermore, due to the pore-confining effect of metal-organic framework materials doped with metal elements, TFSI in the electrolyte can be anchored. - FSI - PF6 -The presence of anions can release more active lithium ions, and faster ion transport can reduce the thickness of the positive electrode interface film and adjust the composition of the negative electrode interface film, further reducing the loss of active lithium due to the formation of the positive and negative electrode interface films, thereby promoting the capacity utilization of the secondary battery and improving the energy density of the secondary battery.

[0036] The positive electrode of this application includes metal-organic framework materials doped with metal elements within the aforementioned scope. On the one hand, the metal-doped metal-organic framework material has a porous structure, which is conducive to the removal of active metal ions from the outer weak coordination solvent. On the other hand, the metal doping sites in the metal-doped metal-organic framework material are conducive to promoting the dissociation of active metal ions from the inner strong coordination solvent. This "assembly line" synergistic desolvation mechanism is beneficial to improving the rate of cross-interface transport of active metal ions and improving the fast charging performance and cycle performance of the secondary battery. At the same time, the abundant polar groups on the surface of the metal-doped metal-organic framework material have a high affinity for the electrolyte, and the porous structure can quickly conduct the electrolyte, which is beneficial to the wetting of the positive electrode by the electrolyte.

[0037] Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are crystalline framework materials with intramolecular pores formed by the self-assembly of metal ions or clusters with organic ligands under certain conditions through coordination bonds. Compared to other nanomaterials, MOFs have advantages such as larger specific surface area, tunable pore size and shape, and ease of modification. Applying activated MOFs to the positive electrode active material layer can enhance the transport of active metal ions by enabling the interaction between the electrolyte and unsaturated open metal sites, thereby reducing the interfacial resistance of the positive electrode. Furthermore, monodisperse metals offer advantages such as high atom utilization, uniform site structure, and maximized metal-carrier interface, providing high-quality active sites for MOFs. Therefore, this application endows metal-organic framework materials with superior conductivity, specific surface area, porosity, chemical tunability, abundance of active sites, and pore structure by loading metal elements into them. Using metal-organic framework materials within the scope of this application, after loading metal elements, it is beneficial to capture metal ions dissolved from polyanionic materials in situ, reduce side reactions catalyzed by metal ions, improve the rate of cross-interface transport of active metal ions, and improve the fast-charging performance and cycle performance of secondary batteries.

[0038] Zirconium-oxygen cluster nodes in UiO series metal-organic frameworks are typically represented as Zr6O4(OH)4 (i.e., m=4, n=4), a designation that has gained industry consensus. However, during post-processing such as heating and vacuum treatment, the hydroxyl groups at the zirconium-oxygen cluster nodes may dehydrate and partially detach, potentially forming a Zr6O6 structure in extreme cases. Due to limitations in current characterization techniques, the hydroxyl content at the zirconium-oxygen cluster nodes cannot be precisely quantified. Therefore, in this application, the molecular formula of the metal-doped metal-organic framework material is expressed as "M". a Zr6O m (OH) n (OL) 6(x+y) / 2 (sol) x (blank) y N b ", where 0.01≤a≤2.3, 4≤m≤6, 0≤n≤4, 0.09≤x≤0.92, 1.8≤y≤6.02, 0.905≤b≤9.24.

[0039] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a metal-organic material doped with a metal element (with metal element M represented by Li, dicarboxylic acid conjugated organic ligand molecular framework of phenyl, and counterion of NO3). -(For example), where 1 is a dicarboxylate conjugated organic ligand, 2 is an oxygen atom, 3 is a zirconium atom, 4 is a nitrogen atom, and 5 is a lithium atom. The absence of a ligand indicates the absence of dicarboxylate conjugated organic ligand 1, forming an unsaturated coordination defect. Metal-doped metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) consist of zirconium atoms, oxygen atoms, dicarboxylate conjugated organic ligands, a metal element M, and counterions. The zirconium atoms, oxygen atoms, dicarboxylate conjugated organic ligands, and metal element M are connected by coordination bonds, while the counterions and small molecule ligands are weakly bonded to the metal framework through non-covalent interactions. Specifically, a single metal-doped MOF contains six zirconium atoms within its unit cell. These six zirconium atoms form octahedral zirconium-oxygen cluster nodes by bonding with bridging oxygen and bridging hydroxyl groups. Simultaneously, zirconium oxide clusters coordinate with dicarboxylic acid conjugated organic ligands to form an overall framework structure. In a defect-free perfect crystal, each metal-doped metal-organic framework material unit cell can coordinate with 12 dicarboxylic acid conjugated organic ligands, meaning each metal-doped metal-organic framework material unit cell can contain 6 dicarboxylic acid conjugated organic ligands. If the chemical bond to be coordinated on a zirconium atom does not coordinate with a dicarboxylic acid conjugated organic ligand, a defect is formed. The missing organic ligand is replaced by a solvent or template agent, i.e., a small molecule ligand (sol). If the missing organic ligand is not occupied by any molecule / ion, it becomes a ligand vacancy (blank). To make the charge properties of the unsaturated coordination defect electrically neutral, an antiion with the same number of charges, i.e., a counterion, needs to be introduced at the ligand-deficient site. Kinetic simulation (MD) shows that during the synthesis of metal-organic framework materials doped with metal elements, the metal element M is anchored near the defect sites of the metal-organic framework material and coordinated with the oxygen / carbon in the metal-organic framework material. At the same time, in order to conserve charge, counterions also participate in the stabilization of the metal element M, so that the metal element M exists in the coordination structure of M-O3C. One oxygen atom and carbon atom come from the organic ligand, and the other two oxygen atoms come from nitrate.

[0040] In some embodiments of this application, the molar ratio of Zr to OL in the cathode material layer is 6:(2.53~5.055), preferably 6:(2.769~4.95), or preferably 6:(2.769~4.266), or preferably 6:(2.769~3.69). For example, in metal-organic framework materials, the molar ratio of Zr to OL can be 6:2.53, 6:2.769, 6:3, 6:3.5, 6:3.69, 6:4, 6:4.266, 6:4.5, 6:4.95, 6:5, 6:5.055, or a range of any two of these values. The molar ratio of Zr to OL in the cathode material layer actually reflects the total defect rate of the material; theoretically, the total defect rate = 1 - n(OL) / n(Zr). Controlling the molar ratio of Zr to OL within the range specified in this application helps ensure that the defect rate is within a suitable range, which can guarantee sufficient lithium storage sites, effectively promote lithium-ion transport, improve interfacial contact with cathode material particles or electrolyte, reduce charge transfer impedance, increase the energy density of the secondary battery, and improve the rate and cycle performance of the secondary battery.

[0041] In some embodiments of this application, solid-state NMR phosphorus spectroscopy is used for testing. The unsaturated coordination defect rate of the metal-doped metal-organic framework material is 15%~50.1%, preferably 26.1%~50.1%, and more preferably 37%~50.1%. For example, the unsaturated coordination defect rate of the metal-doped metal-organic framework material is 15%, 20%, 22%, 25%, 26.1%, 28%, 29%, 30%, 32%, 35%, 37%, 38%, 40%, 42%, 45%, 48%, 49%, 50%, 50.1%, or a range of two of these values. Unsaturated coordination defects refer to defect structures caused by the absence of dicarboxyl conjugated organic ligands. Compared with other types of defects, unsaturated coordination defects have higher activity; exposed unsaturated metal sites have lower steric hindrance and higher site accessibility, which is more conducive to active metal ions (e.g., Li). + During interfacial transport, the coordination solvent is removed. Furthermore, unsaturated coordination sites typically have lower metal valence states, resulting in a charge distribution within the material and a charge transfer path with the substrate that differs significantly from saturated coordination structures. This unique charge distribution and transfer path are more conducive to molecular activation and electron migration, thereby increasing the rate of interfacial transport of active metal ions. Controlling the unsaturated coordination defect rate of metal-organic framework materials doped with metal elements within the range described in this application is beneficial for in-situ capture of dissolved metals in polyanionic materials, reducing catalytic side reactions, and simultaneously increasing the rate of interfacial transport of active metal ions in secondary batteries, thus improving the fast-charging and cycling performance of secondary batteries.

[0042] In some embodiments of this application, thermogravimetric analysis is used to test the total defect rate of the metal-doped metal-organic framework material, which is 20% to 53.5%, preferably 29.6% to 53.5%, and more preferably 40% to 53.5%. For example, the total defect rate of the metal-doped metal-organic framework material can be 20%, 22%, 25%, 29%, 29.6%, 30%, 32%, 34%, 36%, 38%, 40%, 42%, 45%, 47%, 49%, 50%, 53%, 53.5%, or a range of any two of these values. The defects in MOF materials possess unique spatial structures and electronic properties, which can provide active sites for chemical reactions. The total defect rate refers to the ratio of the number of defects present in the structure of the metal-doped metal-organic composite to the number of corresponding connected dicarboxyl conjugated organic ligands in the theoretically intact structure. The defects are Lewis acid sites, which have strong interactions with the solvent and anions in the electrolyte. By controlling the total defect rate of the metal-organic framework material doped with metal elements within the range of this application, the removal of coordination solvents by active metal ions can be promoted, the rate of cross-interface transport of active metal ions can be improved, and the fast charging performance and cycle performance of the secondary battery can be improved.

[0043] In some embodiments of this application, the polyanionic material includes at least one of lithium iron phosphate, lithium vanadium phosphate, lithium manganese iron phosphate, and sodium iron phosphate composite. Compared with other types of positive electrode active materials, polyanionic materials have higher safety, cycle life, and good high-temperature performance, while also being less expensive. Including polyanionic materials and metal-organic framework materials doped with metal elements in the positive electrode sheet facilitates the insertion and extraction of lithium ions during charging and discharging, while enabling the secondary battery to possess both high theoretical capacity and theoretical specific capacity, and low production cost.

[0044] In some embodiments of this application, the molar content of the metal element-doped metal-organic framework material is from 0.01 mol / mol to 2.3 mol / mol, preferably from 0.1 mol / mol to 2.3 mol / mol, based on the amount of metal element-doped metal-organic framework material. For example, the molar content of the metal element can be 0.01 mol / mol, 0.05 mol / mol, 0.08 mol / mol, 0.1 mol / mol, 0.3 mol / mol, 0.5 mol / mol, 0.8 mol / mol, 1 mol / mol, 1.3 mol / mol, 1.5 mol / mol, 1.8 mol / mol, 2 mol / mol, 2.3 mol / mol, or a range of any two of these values, based on the amount of metal element-doped metal-organic framework material. When the value of 'a' is too small, the metal loading is too low to produce an approximate effect; when the value of 'a' is too large, the metal loading is too high, and the metal will mainly exist in the form of physical adsorption, easily forming aggregates. It is also easy for the metal to detach from the pores of the metal-doped organometallic complex, and excessive metal will also occupy the pores, rendering them ineffective. Controlling the value of 'a' within the range specified in this application can further improve the abundance of active sites, pore structure, and electrical properties of the metal-doped organometallic complex.

[0045] In this application, the metal element-doped metal-organic framework (MOF) material is a compound containing a metal element, where the metal element is doped into the crystal structure of the MOF material. That is, the metal element is chemically modified into the crystal structure of the MOF material, and its crystal structure changes after doping. The metal element-doped MOF material provided in this application differs from physically adsorbing a metal element into the MOF material. If a metal element is physically adsorbed into the MOF material, during the charging and discharging process of the secondary battery, the physically adsorbed metal element will detach from the pores of the MOF material. As the electric field diffuses to the electrode interface, it can catalyze side reactions such as gas production, affecting the electrochemical performance of the secondary battery. The metal element-doped MOF material provided in this application also differs from physically mixing a metal compound with the MOF material. In physical mixing, the contact between the metal compound (such as oxides or nanoparticles) and the MOF material crystal is only a macroscopic interface, and molecular-scale bonding or electronic coupling cannot be formed. There is obvious phase separation between the two phases, and it is difficult for them to have molecular size coordination, which is not conducive to the transport of active metal ions between the two phases, thus hindering the improvement of the fast charging performance of the secondary battery.

[0046] Based on the molar amount of the metal element-doped metal-organic framework (MOF), if the molar content of the metal element is too high, some metal elements will be adsorbed into the pores of the MOF via physical adsorption. During the charging and discharging process of the secondary battery, these metal elements will detach from the pores of the MOF and diffuse to the electrode interface with the electric field, catalyzing side reactions such as gas production, thus affecting the electrochemical performance of the secondary battery. Conversely, if the molar content of the metal element in the MOF is too low, it indicates a low loading of metal elements in the MOF. Active lithium in the battery will be chemically adsorbed and bound within the framework, leading to the loss of active lithium and affecting the capacity utilization of the secondary battery. Controlling the molar amount of metal elements in the metal element-doped MOF within the range specified in this application is beneficial to further improve the rate of cross-interface transport of active metal ions, thereby improving the fast-charging performance and cycle performance of the secondary battery.

When the molecular skeleton of the dicarboxylated conjugated organic ligand is selected from imidazole and pyridyl groups, the dicarboxylated conjugated organic ligand skeleton itself contains heteroatoms, which is beneficial for adjusting the polarity of the pore walls of the metal-organic framework material doped with metal elements. This enhances the interaction between the pore walls and lithium ions, solvent, and anions in the electrolyte, promotes the dissociation of these three components within the pores, and thus improves the migration efficiency of lithium ions.

[0061] In this application, functional group X influences the steric hindrance of the metal-organic framework material. Simultaneously, functional group X itself acts as an active site for Lewis acids or bases, altering the affinity of the pores for lithium ions, solvents, and anions in the electrolyte. Furthermore, functional group X is electronegative, affecting the electronic structure at the nodes; electron-withdrawing groups enhance the Lewis acidity of the nodes, and vice versa. Within the scope of this application, suitable functional groups and dicarboxylic acid conjugated organic ligands can be selected according to actual application requirements to achieve optimal electronic and spatial structures, thereby improving the fast-charging and cycle performance of the secondary battery.

Based on the charge characteristics of the metal framework, metal frameworks in metal-doped metal-organic framework materials can be classified into cationic frameworks, anionic frameworks, and neutral frameworks. Counter ions are weakly bound to the metal framework through non-covalent interactions and are essential for maintaining the charge neutrality of metal-doped metal-organic framework materials. For cationic frameworks in metal-doped metal-organic framework materials, the counter ion is PO4. 3- NO3 - Cl - SO4 2- ,Br - acetylacetone and F -Counterions are used to balance the charge of the cationic framework caused by defects.

The metal-doped metal-organic framework material includes the counterions of this application, which can dissolve and replace other ions with the same charge in the electrolyte, such as TFSI. - FSI - PF6 - Counterions can affect the formation of the negative electrode film. The solid electrolyte interface film formed is more conducive to ion transport, thereby improving the charge transfer at the interface and improving the fast charging performance and cycle performance of the secondary battery.

[0064] In this application, since the metal-doped metal-organic framework material uses raw materials such as solvents and template agents in the preparation process, the prepared metal-doped metal-organic framework material also includes other adsorbed components, which include adsorbed solvents and / or adsorbed template agents; this application does not specifically limit the types and contents of other adsorbed components.

Controlling the mass percentage of the dispersant within the range specified in this application helps to reduce the uniform dispersion of the positive electrode active material and the metal-organic framework material doped with metal elements in the positive electrode material layer, improving the uniformity and consistency of the positive electrode sheet, and thus improving the charge-discharge efficiency and cycle stability of the secondary battery.

[0070] In some embodiments of this application, the positive electrode material layer includes a dehydrating agent, which includes at least one selected from hexamethyldisilazane, heptamethyldisilazane, dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, diisopropylcarbodiimide, trimethylsilyl isocyanate, and tert-butyl isocyanate; based on the total mass of the positive electrode material layer, the mass percentage of the dehydrating agent is 0.01% to 5%, preferably 0.1% to 1%; for example, the mass percentage of the dehydrating agent can be 0.01%, 0.05%, 0.1%, 0.3%, 0.5%, 0.8%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, or a range consisting of any two of these values. The positive electrode material layer includes a dehydrating agent within the scope of this application, and the mass percentage of the dehydrating agent is controlled within the scope of this application. This can effectively remove moisture, ensure the stability and performance of the material, thereby reducing the obstruction of moisture to electron transport and lithium ion migration, improving the charging and discharging efficiency of the battery, enabling the battery to charge and discharge quickly, improving high-rate charging and discharging performance, and reducing internal side reactions of the battery, allowing the battery to maintain a high capacity retention rate after multiple cycles.

[0071] In some embodiments of this application, the dispersant includes polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), hydrogenated nitrile butadiene rubber (HNBR), poly(ε-caprolactone), polyethylene, polyethylene glycol, and polyhydroxyethyl methacrylate. The inclusion of dispersants within the scope of this application in the positive electrode sheet helps reduce the agglomeration of solid materials in the positive electrode sheet, ensuring uniform dispersion of the positive electrode active material and metal-organic framework material doped with metal elements within the positive electrode sheet, thereby improving the uniformity and consistency of the positive electrode sheet, and ultimately enhancing the charge-discharge efficiency and cycle stability of the secondary battery.

[0072] The positive electrode sheet described in this application includes a conductive agent, a binder, and a solvent. This application does not impose any particular limitation on the types of conductive agents, binders, and solvents, as long as they achieve the purpose of this application. For example, the conductive agent includes, but is not limited to, at least one of conductive carbon black (Super P), acetylene black, Ketjen black, graphite (such as SFG-6), carbon fiber, single-walled and multi-walled carbon nanotubes, and graphene. The binder includes, but is not limited to, at least one of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), polyethylene oxide (PEO), polyvinyl chloride, polyacryl alcohol, vinylidene fluoride-tetrafluoroethylene-propylene terpolymer, vinylidene fluoride-hexafluoropropylene-tetrafluoroethylene terpolymer, tetrafluoroethylene-hexafluoropropylene copolymer, and fluorinated acrylate resins. The solvent includes, but is not limited to, at least one of N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP), diethylene glycol dimethyl ether (Diglyme), triethylene glycol dimethyl ether (Triglyme), and tetrahydrofuran (THF).

[0073] In some embodiments of this application, the average particle size of the metal-doped metal-organic framework material is 20 nm to 110 nm, preferably 20 nm to 80 nm. For example, the average particle size of the metal-doped metal-organic framework material can be 20 nm, 25 nm, 30 nm, 35 nm, 40 nm, 45 nm, 50 nm, 55 nm, 60 nm, 64 nm, 65 nm, 70 nm, 75 nm, 80 nm, 85 nm, 90 nm, 95 nm, 100 nm, 105 nm, 110 nm, or any combination of two of these values. By controlling the average particle size of the metal-doped metal-organic framework material particles within the above range, it is beneficial to increase the surface exchange sites per unit mass of the metal-doped metal-organic framework material, which is beneficial to promote the removal of coordination solvents by active metal ions, improve the rate of cross-interface transport of active metal ions, capture dissolved metals in polyanionic materials, reduce side reactions catalyzed by dissolved metals, and improve the fast-charging performance and cycle performance of secondary batteries. When the particle size of a material is too large, the bulk diffusion paths of its ions / molecules increase significantly, resulting in slow mass transfer kinetics; simultaneously, the specific surface area decreases sharply, leading to an insufficient number of effective surface reaction sites. Both of these factors jointly limit the material's performance. Correspondingly, larger particle sizes usually mean higher crystallinity and a more complete structure, thus resulting in a lower total defect rate, especially a scarcity of highly reactive unsaturated coordination defects. When the particle size is too small, on the one hand, the surface energy is too high, making agglomeration highly likely, which reduces the effective surface area; on the other hand, excessively high defect density (especially a large number of unsaturated coordination defects) may disrupt the long-range ordered structure of the material, leading to decreased structural stability and potentially inducing the continuous occurrence of side reactions. Therefore, while small particle size significantly increases both the total defect rate and the unsaturated coordination defect rate, it also introduces the risks of agglomeration and structural instability.

The inclusion of diffraction peaks on the (200) and (111) crystal planes in the XRD pattern of the metal-doped metal-organic framework material indicates that the metal-doped metal-organic framework material used in this application has a good crystal structure.

The phrase "positive active material layer disposed on at least one surface of the positive current collector" means that the positive active material layer can be disposed on one surface of the positive current collector along its thickness direction, or on two surfaces of the positive current collector along its thickness direction. It should be noted that "surface" here can be the entire surface area of ​​the positive current collector, or only a portion of the surface area; this application has no particular limitation, as long as the purpose of this application is achieved.

[0102] Test methods and equipment:

[0103] Molar content test of metal elements in metal-organic framework materials doped with metal elements:

[0104] The contents of Zr and M in the metal-organic framework material doped with metal elements were determined using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). The molar ratio of M to Zr in the metal-organic framework material was calculated and denoted as c. Based on the amount of substance of the metal-doped metal-organic framework material, the molar content of the metal element is represented by a, where a = 6c.

[0105] Specific procedures: Digest with BVIII grade nitric acid. Add 20 mg of sample and 15 mL of nitric acid to a polytetrafluoroethylene beaker. Heat at 80°C for 20 min. After the solvent has evaporated and about 2 mL remains, add 15 mL of nitric acid and continue heating for 20 min. Repeat the addition of nitric acid until the solid is completely dissolved and the residual liquid is clear and transparent. Start removing the acid, dilute with ultrapure water, and inject the sample.

[0106] Test of the number of counterions (b) in metal-organic framework materials doped with metal elements:

[0107] 25 mg of metal-doped metal-organic framework material was added to 5 mL of 1 mol / L NaOH solution. The sample was then subjected to ion chromatography (model: Dionex-7680) to determine the type and concentration (mass fraction) of counterions in the sample solution. The mass fraction of the counterion is denoted as W(N), and the molar mass of the counterion is denoted as M(N).

[0108] The mass fraction of Zr in the metal-organic framework material doped with metal elements was determined to be W(Zr), and the molar mass of Zr was determined to be M(Zr) using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). The molecular formula of the metal-organic framework material doped with metal elements is M. a Zr6O m (OH) n (OL) 6-(x+y) / 2 (sol) x (blank) y N b middle, .

[0109] Testing the total defect rate Z of metal-organic framework materials doped with metal elements:

[0110] The total defect rate of metal-organic framework materials doped with metal elements was tested using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) in a temperature range of 50℃-600℃, a heating rate of 3℃ / min, and an air atmosphere.

[0111] The results were processed as follows: The mass of the remaining material (zirconia-M) from the TGA test at 600℃ was used as a baseline, and normalization was performed, recorded as 100%. Under ideal conditions, in defect-free metal-organic framework materials, the chemical formula of the metal-organic framework material at 350°C is M. a O a / 2 Zr6O6(OL)6, the corresponding standardized weight is N (%), N (%) = MA (M a O a / 2 Zr6O6(OL)6) / MA(6ZrO2+Li a O a / 2 )×100%, where MA(M a O a / 2 Zr6O6(OL)6) represents 1 mol M a O a / 2 The mass of Zr6O6(OL)6, MA(6ZrO2+M a O a / 2 () represents 6 mol ZrO2 and 1 mol M a O a / 2 The sum of the masses. At 350°C, the normalized weight of the metal-organic framework material doped with defective metal elements is less than N (%), indicating insufficient OL connectors within the metal-organic framework material doped with defective metal elements. The total defect rate is calculated using the formula: Where w% (350℃) is the standardized weight of metal-organic framework material with defects at 350℃, i.e., w% (350℃) = weight of remaining material at test temperature of 350℃ / weight of remaining material at test temperature of 600℃, and Z is the total defect rate of metal-organic framework material with metal elements.

Defects in the metal-doped MOFs were labeled and identified using TMPO. The total defect rate and unsaturated coordination defect rate of the metal-doped MOFs were measured using a Bruker AvanceNEO 600 MHz NMR spectrometer. A 3.2 mm MAS probe was used, with a rotation speed of 15 or 18 kHz. 31 The P signal was calibrated using the NH4H2PO4 signal. Peak fitting was performed on the data between 1 and 100 using Origin, and the fitted R value was... 2 ≥99.8%. The peaks near chemical shifts 62, 58, 55, and 53 are identified as Zr-blank, μ-OH(OL), μ-OH(sol), and Zr-sol sites, respectively.

[0195] Table 2:

[0196] In Table 2, based on the total mass of the cathode material layer, the mass percentage of the metal-organic framework material doped with metal elements is represented as "W1", the mass percentage of the cathode active material is represented as "W2", the mass percentage of the conductive agent is represented as "W3", the mass percentage of the binder is represented as "W4", and the mass percentage of the dispersant is represented as "W5".

[0197] As can be seen from Examples 1-1 to 1-25 and Comparative Examples 1 to 4, the positive electrode sheets of each embodiment of this application include metal-organic framework materials doped with metal elements within the scope of this application, and the molar content of the metal elements is within the scope of this application. The prepared positive electrode sheets have high conductivity, and the secondary batteries assembled from the positive electrode sheets have high specific capacity, high rate charge-discharge performance, and high-temperature cycle capacity retention. The positive electrode sheets of Comparative Examples 1, 3, and 4 do not contain metal-organic framework materials doped with metal elements, and the positive electrode slurry of Comparative Example 2 uses metal-organic framework materials that are not doped with metal elements. The prepared positive electrode sheets have low conductivity, and the secondary batteries have low specific capacity, high rate charge-discharge performance, and high-temperature cycle capacity retention.

[0198] The total defect rate, unsaturated coordination defect rate, and average particle size of metal-organic framework (MOF) materials doped with metal elements affect the conductivity of the cathode electrode and the specific capacity, rate charge-discharge performance, and high-temperature cycle capacity retention of the secondary battery. As can be seen from Examples 1-19 to 1-23, when the total defect rate, unsaturated coordination defect rate, and average particle size of the metal-organic framework material doped with metal elements are within the range of this application, the prepared cathode electrode exhibits high conductivity, and the secondary battery exhibits high specific capacity, rate charge-discharge performance, and high-temperature cycle capacity retention. As can be seen from Examples 24 and 25, when the metal-organic framework material doped with metal elements within the range of this application is used in cathode electrodes with lithium manganese iron phosphate and sodium iron pyrophosphate as the cathode active material, the cathode electrode exhibits high conductivity, and the secondary battery assembled from the cathode electrode exhibits high specific capacity, rate charge-discharge performance, and high-temperature cycle capacity retention.

[0199] from Figure 2 It can be seen that the XRD patterns of the metal-organic framework materials doped with metal elements in Examples 1-1, 1-3, and 1-5 include diffraction peaks of the (200) and (111) crystal planes. The black vertical line in the lower part of the figure (XRD standard card) is the diffraction peak simulated based on UiO-66 single crystal, which includes diffraction peaks of the (200) and (111) crystal planes. The fact that the XRD patterns of the metal-doped metal-organic framework materials include diffraction peaks of the (200) and (111) crystal planes indicates, on the one hand, that the metal-doped metal-organic framework materials used in this application still maintain a good crystal structure; on the other hand, it can be shown that the metal-doped metal-organic framework materials used in this application have a porous structure, with 8 Å pores arranged in an orderly manner in the framework. The XRD patterns of the metal-doped metal-organic framework materials in the positive electrode sheets of Examples 1-1 to 1-23 of this application all include diffraction peaks of the (200) and (111) crystal planes.

[0200] The types and mass percentages of each component in the positive electrode material layer affect the conductivity of the positive electrode and the performance of the secondary battery. As can be seen from Examples 2-1 to 2-8, when the mass percentage of the metal-organic framework material doped with metal elements in the positive electrode material layer is within the range of this application, the prepared positive electrode has high conductivity, and the secondary battery has high specific capacity, high rate charge-discharge performance, and high-temperature cycle capacity retention.

[0201] As can be seen from Examples 2-9 to 2-10, when the type and mass percentage of the dispersant in the positive electrode material layer are within the range of this application, the prepared positive electrode sheet has high conductivity, and the secondary battery has high specific capacity, high rate charge-discharge performance, and high-temperature cycle capacity retention. As can be seen from Examples 2-11 to 2-15, when the areal density and compaction density of the positive electrode material layer are within the range of this application, the prepared positive electrode sheet has high conductivity, and the secondary battery has high specific capacity, high rate charge-discharge performance, and high-temperature cycle capacity retention. As can be seen from Example 2-16, adding a dehydrating agent to the positive electrode material layer results in a positive electrode sheet with high conductivity, and a secondary battery with high rate charge-discharge performance and high-temperature cycle capacity retention.
