AI Technical Summary
In existing technologies, when asphalt is used as a carbon source to prepare hard carbon materials, there are problems such as agglomeration, uneven coating or local phase separation, which leads to random pore structure, loose interface and uncontrolled defect distribution, affecting its performance as a negative electrode material for sodium-ion batteries.
Using limonene as a medium solvent, asphalt is dissolved and dispersed under mild conditions, so that it is uniformly coated on the surface of lignin particles, forming a composite precursor with continuous structure and stable interface. Through heat treatment, microphase separation and interface vacancies are induced to form a controllable microporous and mesoporous structure.
The prepared pitch-coated lignin-derived hard carbon material exhibits high initial coulombic efficiency and good rate performance as a negative electrode material for sodium-ion batteries. The initial coulombic efficiency is 81.76%, and the capacity retention rate at 3C is 75.05%. It has the advantages of simple process, strong scalability and controllable cost.
