Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of sodium-ion batteries, and more particularly to a sodium-ion battery negative electrode sheet and a sodium-ion battery. Background Technology

[0002] Sodium-ion batteries, as a promising type of electrochemical energy storage device, leverage the widespread distribution of sodium resources, economical manufacturing costs, and safe and reliable operation, demonstrating significant practical value in large-scale stationary energy storage facilities and lightweight electric vehicles. The negative electrode material, as a key component of the battery system, fundamentally impacts the battery's energy storage capacity, charge / discharge speed characteristics, lifespan, and environmental adaptability.

[0003] Hard carbon materials are widely recognized as the most promising anode material for sodium-ion batteries at present due to their moderate preparation cost, convenient raw material acquisition, reasonable sodium ion intercalation potential range, and high theoretical sodium storage capacity. The sodium storage behavior of hard carbon materials is mainly achieved through the reversible intercalation and deintercalation of sodium ions between graphite-like microcrystalline layers, accompanied by surface adsorption and pore filling mechanisms in defect regions and microporous structures within the material. However, current mainstream hard carbon anode manufacturing processes generally employ a single particle size or a simple physical mixture of hard carbon particles to form a highly homogeneous electrode coating. This homogeneous structure results in a lack of functional gradient distribution in the electrode's spatial dimension, making it impossible to effectively balance the contradiction between high-rate charge / discharge capability and long-term cycle stability in practical applications. Specifically, under high-current conditions, the uniformity of ion transport paths easily leads to local concentration gradient imbalances, while during repeated charge / discharge processes, the non-uniformity of volume changes easily induces stress concentration and structural damage within the electrode. While existing research has explored optimizing the performance of hard carbon through surface chemical modification or the introduction of auxiliary components, these methods primarily focus on homogenizing the overall material properties. They fail to establish a spatially ordered functional gradient system at the macroscopic structural level of the electrode and lack systematic structural design tailored to the performance requirements of different regions. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a novel negative electrode structure that can achieve synergistic optimization of multiple performance parameters through a spatially gradient layout, thereby significantly improving the overall electrochemical performance of sodium-ion batteries.

[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, existing technologies urgently need improvement. Summary of the Invention

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this application include: The sodium-ion battery anode sheet provided in this application employs a gradient design of the particle size and interlayer spacing of hard carbon particles, resulting in structural differences between the inner and outer hard carbon materials. This synergistically optimizes the overall performance of the sodium-ion battery anode sheet. By sequentially stacking a first hard carbon layer and a second hard carbon layer on both sides of a substrate, and by gradient-designing the particle size and interlayer spacing of the two hard carbon layers, the problem of homogenization of electrode microstructure in existing technologies can be effectively solved. This structural design enables differentiated transport and storage of sodium ions in different active layers, thereby synergistically optimizing the energy density, rate performance, and cycle stability of the anode material, and comprehensively improving the overall performance of the sodium-ion battery.

The terms "comprising", "including", "having", "containing", or any other variations thereof as used herein are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion. For example, a composition, step, method, article, or apparatus that includes the listed elements is not necessarily limited to those elements, but may include other elements not expressly listed or elements inherent to such composition, step, method, article, or apparatus.

[0020] The conjunction "composed of..." excludes any unspecified elements, steps, or components. If used in a claim, this phrase makes the claim closed, excluding materials other than those described, except for associated conventional impurities. When the phrase "composed of..." appears in a clause of the body of a claim rather than immediately following it, it limits only the elements described in that clause; other elements are not excluded from the claim as a whole.

[0084] The electrical performance of the sodium-ion batteries provided in the examples and comparative examples is shown in Table 2: Table 2 shows the electrical performance of the sodium-ion batteries provided in the examples and comparative examples.

[0085] As can be seen, the embodiment not only has high capacity and first-time efficiency, but also good room temperature cycling performance and low temperature cycling performance. This is due to the directional design of the electrode. The hard carbon on the surface has excellent kinetic performance. During charging and discharging, the surface layer with the largest ion flux first inserts or de-inserts sodium ions, improving kinetic performance. The hard carbon at the bottom layer has good electronic conductivity. During charging and discharging, the bottom layer with the largest electron flux quickly transfers electrons, reducing battery polarization. Furthermore, its high first-time efficiency and capacity help to improve the battery capacity.

[0086] Comparative Example 1 uses the opposite approach, resulting in poorer battery cycle performance and lower initial efficiency. Comparative Examples 2 and 3 use a single structure, which cannot simultaneously meet the requirements of capacity and cycle stability. Comparative Example 4 uses a direct mixing method, which achieves some balance, but the overall effect is not as good as the examples. Comparative Example 5 uses graphite hard carbon 4, which has a larger particle size. Although the design is similar to Example 1, due to insufficient material kinetics, sodium precipitation is still easy during cycling, leading to poor cycle stability.
