Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of sodium ion batteries, and more particularly to a positive electrode material for a single crystal sodium ion battery, a method for producing the same, and a battery. [Background technology]

[0002] As the competition for lithium-ion batteries intensifies, the price of lithium salts is rising in addition to supply and demand relations and resource restrictions, and sodium-ion batteries, which have cost advantages, are gradually becoming the focus of research by major companies and universities. Sodium-ion batteries operate on the same principle as lithium-ion batteries, but compared to lithium-ion batteries, sodium ions have a larger ionic radius and a slower diffusion rate, so sodium ions have some disadvantages in terms of energy density and cycle characteristics.

[0003] After extensive research in various fields over the past decade, sodium-ion batteries have been developed into a system of products mainly consisting of transition metal oxides, Prussian blue, polyanion phosphates, etc. Among them, transition metal oxides have a relatively high specific capacity, making them popular. However, their poor cycle performance and low energy density are important factors affecting the application of positive electrode materials for sodium-ion batteries.

[0004] Transition metal oxides currently available on the market are primarily divided into two types: nickel-manganese-iron-copper oxides containing copper, and nickel-iron-manganese oxides. In either type, varying the ratio of nickel, iron, manganese, and copper elements can produce cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries with different performance characteristics. The different element ratios also affect the stability of the materials when in contact with the electrolyte. Factors that affect the cycle life of cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries are: 1) the restructuring of the surface crystalline structure during cycling; and 2) the destruction of agglomerated particles due to anisotropic volume expansion during cycling. Research has shown that the interparticle interconnection structure within agglomerated particles leads to localized increases in current density, which generates significant stress and thereby affects the cycling characteristics of the material. Furthermore, mismatches in the state of charge between different parts of the particles also affect the electrochemical performance of the electrode.

[0005] In addition, when the amount of desodium in the positive electrode material for sodium-ion batteries is relatively large, the structure becomes very fragile, and the active metals and oxygen in the lattice are displaced. At a certain high temperature and pressure, the atomic rearrangement and reorganization gradually intensifies, and the volume and material phase of the crystal grains change significantly. Meanwhile, when the positive electrode material is desodiumed, its oxidizing power becomes strong, and it is very easy to cause chemical and electrochemical reactions with the electrolyte, which makes the material easy to deoxidize, and the transition metals dissolve. Especially under high voltage, the electrolyte is oxidized, and H + is generated, which increases the acidity of the electrolyte, causing the surface film of the electrode material to be destroyed by HF, further changing the composition and structure of the interface, and seriously affecting the electrochemical and cycling performance of the material. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0058] The raw materials and instruments used in the following examples and comparative examples are as shown in Table 1.

[0059] [Table 1]

[0060] [Table 2]

[0061] Example 1 The molar ratio of Na:Mn:Ni:Fe:B was 0.92:0.34:0.30:0.35:0.01, and the total weight was 1.63 kg. The corresponding weights of sodium carbonate, manganese carbonate, nickel carbonate, iron trioxide, and boric acid were weighed and mixed in an ultra-high-speed multi-function mixer at 3300 r / min for 20 minutes. The homogeneously mixed material was placed in a muffle furnace and heated to 885°C in an air atmosphere for 18 hours. Then, after natural cooling, it was pulverized in an airflow mill at a pulverization pressure of 0.60 MPa to obtain single-crystalline sodium-ion battery cathode material C1.

[0062] The cathode materials were characterized and analyzed according to the following methods. 1) Component analysis The components of the positive electrode material were analyzed using ICP. (1) Sample pretreatment Weigh 0.2000-0.2100g (accuracy from 0.001g) of sample into a 100mL quartz beaker, add 10mL of aqua regia (1:1) to the quartz beaker along the beaker wall, cover the surface dish, heat at 180°C for 30min, transfer the entire solution to a 50mL measuring flask, add deionized water to the volumetric solution and shake well, then aspirate 1mL of the solution from the well-shaken 50mL measuring flask into a 100mL measuring flask, add 5mL (25%) of nitric acid to the measuring flask, and add deionized water to the volumetric solution. (2) Component analysis tests were conducted using the calibration curve method. According to the above method, the single-crystal sodium ion battery positive electrode material C1 has the chemical formula Na 0.92 Ni 0.30 Mn 0.34 Fe 0.35 B 0.01 It was measured to be O2.

[0063] 2) Specific surface area The measurement was performed according to the national standard GB / T19587-2006, the method for measuring the specific surface area of ​​solids by gas adsorption BET method. Analytical instrument: Tristar II 3020 fully automatic specific surface area and pore distribution measuring device, Test parameters: adsorbate N2, 99.999%, coolant liquid nitrogen, P0 actual measurement, volume measurement mode, adsorption pressure deviation 0.05 mmHg, equilibration time 5 s, relative pressure point selection P / P0: 0.05, 0.1, 0.15, 0.2, 0.25, 0.30, Sample preparation: An empty sample tube and plug were weighed, and 3.8-4.2 g of sample was added to a 9.5 mm specific surface area sample tube with a 3 / 8 inch ball valve. The tube was heated to 200 °C using a FlowPrep 060 degassing station, purged with inert gas, and degassed for 0.5 h. The tube was then removed and cooled to room temperature. The combined sample tube, plug, and sample mass, M2, was weighed. The sample mass, M = M2 - M1, was then measured on-machine and the BET value recorded. The results are shown in Table 3.

[0064] 3) Particle size The particle size distribution was measured according to the national standard GB / T19077-2016 laser diffraction method, and the results are shown in Table 3. Testing instrument: Malvern, Master Size 2000 laser particle size analyzer. Test procedure: 1g of powder was weighed and added to 60ml of pure water, and then externally ultrasonicated for 5 minutes. The sample was then injected into the sample injector, the test was performed, and the test data was recorded. Test conditions: The test principle was Mie theory (light scattering), the detection angle was 0-135°, the external ultrasonic intensity was 40KHz, 180W, the particle refractive index was 1.692, the particle absorption coefficient was 1, the sample test time was 6 seconds, the background test snap count was 6,000 times, and the light blocking rate was 8-12%.

[0065] 4) pH value The measurement was performed using a PHSJ-3F lightning-magnetic pH meter. The specific method was as follows: 5g ± 0.05g of sample was accurately weighed and placed in a beaker. Deionized water was added at a material / water ratio of 1:9 by mass to form a 10% suspension. The magnetic material was placed in the beaker, which was then placed on the magnetic stirrer tray. The magnetic stirrer was rotated at 880 r / min and stirred for 5 minutes. The mixed solution was filtered using qualitative filter paper and a funnel, and then placed in a thermostatic water bath set at 25°C and thermostatically filtered for 20 ± 5 minutes. The electrode was then rinsed with the sample solution. After rinsing, the electrode and temperature sensor were inserted into the sample solution. The pH value was recorded when the reading stabilized and the temperature reached 25°C. The results are shown in Table 3.

[0066] 5) XRD test XRD testing of the sodium ion cathode materials in the examples of the present invention employed an X'Pert PRO MPD analyzer. Test principle: The Bragg equation reflects the relationship between the direction of diffraction rays and crystal structure. For diffraction to occur, the Bragg equation must be satisfied: 2dsinθ=nλ (d: crystal plane spacing, θ: Bragg angle, λ: X-ray wavelength, n: reflection series). When X-rays are irradiated onto a sample, the scattered X-rays from each atom in the crystal interfere with each other, generating strong X-ray diffraction rays in a specific direction. When X-rays are irradiated onto a sample from different angles, diffraction occurs at different crystal planes, and the detector receives the number of diffracted photons reflected from the crystal planes, thereby obtaining a spectrum showing the relationship between angle and intensity. Test conditions: light pipe is Cu target material, wavelength is 1.54060, Be window, incident light path: Soller slit 0.04 rad, divergence slit 1 / 2°, light shielding plate 10 mm, anti-scattering slit 1°, diffraction light path: anti-scattering slit 8.0 mm, Soller slit 0.04 rad, large Ni filter, scanning range 10~90°, scanning step 0.013°, dwell time for each step 30.6 s, voltage 40 kV, current 40 mA. Powder sample preparation: Use a clean sampling spoon to place the powder into the groove of a glass slide (for large particle samples, the powder needs to be polished to <50 μm). Place one side of the blade (>20 mm) on the surface of the glass slide and slightly lift the other side (included angle <10°). Use the edge of the blade to scrape the surface of the powder sample flat, rotate the glass slide 90°, and scrape it flat again. Repeat this process in both directions several times until there is no texture on the surface of the sample. Remove excess powder around the glass slide and place it in the powder diffraction analyzer. Sample analysis: The sample file was opened using the High-Score Plus analysis software. The background was determined, peak detection was selected, peak confirmation was performed, and then iterative fitting was performed. The Williamson-Hall plot was recorded to calculate the grain size. The corresponding phase was selected, phase matching and unit cell refinement were performed, and the half-width of the (110) diffraction peak at a diffraction angle 2θ of approximately 64.9° was recorded. The results are shown in Table 3.

[0067] 6) Moisture The measurement was performed in accordance with the GB / T 11133-2015 Karl Fischer coulometric titration method. 899 Coulometer + 885 Compact Oven SC coulometer was used to test. 0.5-0.8g of sample was weighed using a water bottle. The accuracy was within 0.0001g. The gas flow rate was 50-60ml / min, the heating temperature was 170℃, the initial drift was ≦10μg / min, the final drift was 20μg / min, and the extraction time was 400s. The test results were accurate to one decimal place. The results are shown in Table 3.

[0068] 7) Green density [1] The circular mold was placed on the stage of an electronic pressure tester, and the pressure was slowly increased manually to 1000 kg, after which the displacement and deformation were zero. [2] Weigh out the powder (5.0000±0.1000) and place it in a circular mold. Shake gently to flatten it. Then, place the upper pad of the mold on the sample. Be careful that both pads face the sample with the non-cut surface to prevent the sample from spilling. [3] After filling the sample, the mold was placed on the stage of the electronic pressure tester, and a program was edited to increase the pressure to 8000 kg at a rate of 5 mm / min, hold the voltage constant for 30 s, and then reduce the pressure to zero. [4] When the sample was pressurized to 8000±10 kg (approximately 15-25 s after the pressure reached 8000 kg), the pressure on the sample was recorded and the sample height was read, with an accuracy of 0.001 cm. [5] After the reading was completed, the stage of the electronic pressure tester was manually lowered and the sample was removed using the remover. [6] After removing the sample, the inside of the sample mold was cleaned with alcohol-soaked clean paper to ensure that the inside of the mold was clean, and the experiment was completed. [7] Calculations were made using the formula below, and the results are shown in Table 3.

[0103] (Experimental Example 1) Fabrication and performance evaluation of sodium-ion batteries.

[0104] CR2430 button cell batteries are manufactured according to the following method. Positive electrode preparation: The positive electrode materials for sodium ion batteries prepared in Examples 1 to 6 of the present invention and Comparative Example 1, respectively, were thoroughly mixed with polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) as a binder and conductive carbon black (SP) in a weight ratio of 7:2:1, stirred to form a uniform slurry, which was then applied to an aluminum foil current collector, dried, and pressed to form tabs, which were designated as PE-C1, PE-C2, PE-C3, PE-C4, PE-C5, PE-C6, and PE-D1, respectively. The pressed positive electrode tab was punched out, weighed, and sintered. The battery was then assembled in a vacuum glove box. First, the bottom of the button battery case was placed on top of it, followed by a 2.5mm nickel foam sheet and a negative electrode metallic sodium sheet (manufacturer: Shenzhen Youken Technology Co., Ltd.). 0.5g of electrolyte was then poured into the battery under a relative humidity of less than 1.5%. The electrolyte was a 1 mol / L sodium hexafluorophosphate solution, made from a 1:1:1 mixed solvent of ethylene carbonate (EC), diethyl carbonate (DEC), and dimethyl carbonate (DMC). A separator and a positive electrode tab were then placed on the battery case, and the battery case was then sealed to obtain button batteries with model number CR2430. These batteries are designated BA-C1, BA-C2, BA-C3, BA-C4, BA-C5, BA-C6, and BA-D1, respectively.

[0105] The battery was subjected to a performance test on a battery test system according to the following method, and the results are shown in Table 4. 1) Capacity test The manufactured button cell battery was mounted on a test stand and the test program was started. The test temperature was set to 25°C, the battery was left standing for 4 hours, the battery was charged at a constant current of 0.1C to 4.0V, the battery was paused, the battery was left standing for 5 minutes, and the battery was discharged at a constant current of 0.1C to 2.0V, and the capacity at the current and voltage was obtained. 2) Cycle test The battery that has undergone the above capacity test is mounted on a test stand, and the test program is started. The set steps are: test temperature is set to 45°C, left to stand for 4 hours, constant current charging at 0.1C to 4.0V, constant voltage charging at 4.0V for 2 hours, left to stand for 5 minutes, and then constant current discharging at 0.1C to a cutoff voltage of 2.0V, left to stand for 5 minutes. The previous constant current charging start step is repeated to perform a cycle test, and the capacity retention rate according to the number of cycles can be obtained.

[0106] [Table 4]

[0107] As can be seen from Table 4, the sodium ion batteries manufactured using the positive electrode materials for single crystalline sodium ion batteries manufactured in Examples 1 to 6 had capacities of 133.0 to 140 mAh / g at a current of 0.1 C and a voltage of 4.2 V (cut-off voltage of 2.0 V), and had capacity retention rates of 90.05 to 94.24% after 50 cycles under conditions of 4.0 V to 2.0 V and 0.1 C / 0.1 C. The sodium ion battery manufactured using the positive electrode material for single crystalline sodium ion batteries manufactured in Comparative Example 1 had a capacity retention rate of only 77.64% after 50 cycles under conditions of 4.0 V to 2.0 V and 0.1 C / 0.1 C. FIG. 15 also shows that the capacity retention rates during cycle testing of the sodium ion batteries manufactured using the positive electrode materials for single crystalline sodium ion batteries manufactured in Examples 1 to 6 were clearly superior to those of Comparative Example 1.

[0108] After 50 cycles of battery BA-C1, the battery was disassembled and the positive electrode tab was taken out for SEM examination, as shown in Fig. 16. From Fig. 16, it can be seen that the single crystal particles remain intact even after cycling without any particle cracks.
