Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of electrode material technology, and in particular to sieved carbon and its manufacturing method and application. [Background technology]
[0002] Amorphous carbon materials are the most commercially promising battery anode materials due to their low cost, low operating potential, and excellent cycling stability. However, amorphous carbon materials currently face the main problem of low initial coulombic efficiency, which has significantly hindered their commercialization.
[0003] The electrochemical performance of amorphous carbon materials is closely related to their microstructure. In particular, the pore structure of a carbon material directly affects its initial coulombic efficiency. Chinese patent application publication number CN116553547A, "High-energy and high-power carbon material and manufacturing method thereof, and sodium ion battery," discloses a high-energy and high-power carbon material with a pore diameter of 0.1 to 0.4 nm. However, a pore diameter of 0.4 nm is still too large and is unfavorable to the initial coulombic efficiency, so the pore size needs to be further adjusted.
[0004] The present invention discloses a sieving carbon and its manufacturing method and application, and its pores can be made smaller than 0.33 nm after two size adjustments, and there are no pores between 0.33 nm and 0.4 nm, and its initial Coulomb efficiency is significantly improved. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0005] The object of the present invention is to provide a sieving carbon to address the problem of oversized pore size in carbon materials present in the prior art.
[0006] Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing the above sieving carbon.
[0007] A further object of the present invention is to provide an application of said sieved carbon in battery electrodes. [Means for solving the problem]
[0008] In order to achieve the object of the present invention, the technical solutions used are as follows.
[0009] A sieving carbon is obtained by depositing primary carbon deposits on the pore openings and the periphery of the pore openings of the sieving carbon, and depositing secondary carbon deposits on the pore openings on the surface of the primary carbon deposits. Neither of the two deposited carbon deposits enters the pore chambers, and the diameters of the pore openings after the two depositions are both smaller than 0.33 nm. The specific surface area of the sieving carbon obtained by CO2 adsorption and desorption tests is 0-10 m 2 / g.
[0010] In the above technical solution, the pore diameter of the sieving carbon is 0.5 to 10 nm.
[0011] According to another aspect of the present invention, a method for producing sieved carbon includes the steps of: The pores are rapidly reduced by the first chemical vapor deposition. That is, the porous carbon is placed in a chemical vapor deposition apparatus, and a protective gas is passed through at a predetermined flow rate, and the temperature is raised to 1100-1300°C. Then, the first chemical vapor deposition is passed through at a predetermined flow rate. Step 1: Passing a carbon source gas through the reactor and performing the first incubation; Step 2: finishing the hole openings by a second chemical vapor deposition until the diameter is smaller than 0.33 nm, i.e., after the first heat-holding is completed, the first carbon source gas is turned off, the temperature is lowered to 600-800°C, and a second carbon source gas is passed through at a predetermined flow rate, and a second heat-holding is performed; and step 3, stopping the second carbon source gas and lowering the temperature to room temperature at a predetermined rate to obtain the sieved carbon.
[0012] As shown in Figure 17, the temperature for the first chemical vapor deposition (rapid hole shrinkage) is 1100-1300°C. At this temperature, the carbon source gas rapidly decomposes and deposits, sacrificing the selectivity of the carbon source gas deposited at the hole mouth (some deposition occurs outside the hole), thereby rapidly shrinking the hole mouth. The hole mouth is a defective site, and the rapidly decomposed carbon source gas mainly deposits at the hole mouth, with a small amount deposited outside the hole. If the temperature is lower than 1100°C, the goal of rapidly shrinking the hole mouth cannot be achieved, and the hole mouth shrinkage speed is relatively slow, causing the deposited carbon to enter the hole. If the temperature is higher than 1300°C, the deposition speed is too fast, which may cause the hole mouth to be instantly blocked, resulting in excessive ineffective carbon deposition.
[0013] The second chemical vapor deposition (finishing the pore openings to a diameter less than 0.33 nm) is performed at a temperature of 600-800°C. At this temperature, the decomposition rate of the carbon source gas is slow, allowing selective deposition at the pore openings with no deposition outside the pores, further refining the pore opening size to less than 0.33 nm. If the temperature is higher than 800°C, the finishing goal cannot be achieved and excessive carbon deposition occurs outside the pores. If the temperature is lower than 600°C, the carbon source gas decomposes and cannot be deposited.
[0014] In the above technical solution, the porous carbon in step 1 is walnut shell-based porous carbon, bamboo-based activated carbon, coconut shell-based porous carbon, peanut shell-based porous carbon, petroleum coke-based porous carbon, needle coke-based porous carbon, or activated carbon fiber.
[0015] In the above technical solution, the first carbon source gas in step 1 is methane, benzene vapor, toluene vapor, xylene vapor, ethane, propane or acetylene; the second carbon source gas in step 2 is methane, benzene vapor, toluene vapor, xylene vapor, ethane, propane, or acetylene; Preferably, the first carbon source gas is the same as the second carbon source gas.
[0016] In the above technical solution, the flow rate of the first carbon source gas in step 1 is 10 to 500 mL / min. If the flow rate of the carbon source gas is too small, the hole opening size remaining after the first chemical vapor deposition will be relatively large, resulting in a large amount of deposited carbon entering the hole during hole opening finishing in step 2. If the flow rate of the carbon source gas is too large, the hole will be over-blocked, resulting in a large amount of ineffective deposited carbon at the hole opening, and the initial coulomb efficiency during sodium storage will be low.
[0017] In the above technical solution, the first incubation time in step 1 is 0-30 minutes, but not 0. The purpose of the first chemical vapor deposition is to rapidly shrink the pore opening and prevent deposited carbon from entering the pores. If the incubation time is too long, excessive deposition will occur, which will affect the initial coulomb efficiency of sodium storage.
[0018] In the above technical proposal, after completing step 1, the size of the pores can be adjusted so that most of the pores cannot allow N2 to enter but can allow CO2 to enter, i.e., the specific surface area according to the N2 adsorption and desorption test is 0-100m2. 2 / g, and the specific surface area measured by CO2 adsorption and desorption tests is 100-2000 m 2 / g, and the diameter of most of the pores is 0.33~0.364nm.
[0019] In the above technical solution, the flow rate of the second carbon source gas in step 2 is ≧10 mL / min. If the flow rate of the carbon source gas is too low, it will take a relatively long time to complete the hole opening.
[0020] In the above technical solution, the second incubation time in step 2 is ≥ 3 hours, and the second deposition is performed at a relatively low deposition temperature, so deposition occurs selectively only at the pore openings. After the pore openings are finished, no deposition occurs. If the deposition time is < 3 hours, the effect of pore opening finishing cannot be achieved, resulting in a relatively low initial Coulomb efficiency and a relatively low sodium storage capacity. Step 2 is performed at a relatively low reaction temperature, so the decomposition and deposition of the carbon source gas must occur at a position with a low energy barrier. In the case of porous carbon, the position with a low energy barrier is the pore opening with many defects. After all the pore opening positions are occupied by deposited carbon, there are no positions available for the decomposition and deposition of the carbon source gas, so even if the time is further extended, no deposition will occur.
[0021] In the above technical solution, after the hole opening is completed in step 2, the hole opening size of all holes is closed until CO2 cannot enter, that is, the specific surface area in the CO2 adsorption and desorption test is 0~10m 2 / g, and the pore opening diameter of all pores is smaller than 0.33 nm.
[0022] In the above technical solution, the pore size of the sieving carbon obtained in step 3 is the same as the pore size of the porous carbon in step 1.
[0023] In the above technical solution, the temperature drop rate in step 3 is 5 to 20°C / min.
[0024] Another aspect of the present invention further includes the application of the sieved carbon in a battery negative electrode.
[0025] In the above technical solution, the sodium storage capacity of the battery negative electrode is 350-600mAh / g, and the initial coulomb efficiency is 91-95%.
[0026] According to another aspect of the present invention, the battery further includes a negative electrode based on sieved carbon, the negative electrode including a negative electrode active material, a conductive agent, and an adhesive, wherein the negative electrode active material is the sieved carbon, the conductive agent is SUPER-P, KS-6, conductive graphite, carbon nanotubes, graphene, carbon fiber VGCF, acetylene black, or Ketjen black, and the adhesive is PVDF, CMC, SBR, PTFE, SA, PAA, or PAN.
[0027] According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a battery comprising a positive electrode, a negative electrode based on the sieved carbon described above, and an electrolyte, The positive electrode active material is a layered transition metal oxide, a sodium polyanion compound, Prussian blue, or Prussian white.
[0028] The electrolyte includes an organic solvent and a sodium salt, where the organic solvent includes EC, PC, DMC, DEC, EMC, EA, FEC, or VC, and the sodium salt includes NaClO4, NaPF6, NaBF4, NaFSI, or NaTFSI. [Effects of the Invention]
[0029] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: 1. This invention uses two chemical vapor deposition processes at different temperatures to produce sieve-type carbon. The first chemical vapor deposition process in step 1 rapidly seals the pores at high temperatures (1100-1300°C), preventing the deposited carbon from entering the pore chambers and rapidly shrinking the pore openings to a relatively small size at a relatively fast rate. This rapid shrinkage of the pore openings actually improves the efficiency of pore sealing at the expense of the selectivity of the deposition reaction at the pore openings, resulting in deposited carbon on the periphery of the pore openings. The second chemical vapor deposition process in step 2 is performed at low temperatures (600-800°C) to refine the pore openings to a diameter of less than 0.33 nm. Since the pore openings have already reached a relatively small extent after completing step 1, the second chemical vapor deposition process prevents the second chemical vapor deposition carbon from entering the pores. The low-temperature deposition in step 2 is selective deposition that occurs only at the pore openings and does not result in further deposited carbon outside the pores. 2. By using two chemical vapor deposition processes, the present invention can maintain the original pore size (in the two-step deposition process, none of the deposited carbon enters the pore chambers) while adjusting the pore diameter to less than 0.33 nm, effectively improving the initial Coulomb efficiency of the carbon material and facilitating the commercial application of sieving-type carbon materials.

[0031] The present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to specific examples. It should be understood that the specific examples described here are merely for the purpose of illustrating the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0032] Example 1 The method for producing sieved carbon is as follows: The porous carbon with abundant pore structure was placed in a tube furnace after the first chemical vapor deposition to rapidly reduce the pore size. The porous carbon was activated carbon fiber, and the specific surface area was 1420 m2 according to the small angle scattering test. 2 / g, and the specific surface area measured by nitrogen gas adsorption and desorption tests was 1380 m 2 / g, and the large specific surface area of the porous carbon indicates that it has a large number of pores and a large internal space, so it is a large-pore raw material. Next, argon gas is passed through as a protective gas at a flow rate of 90mL / min, and the temperature is raised to a final temperature of 1200°C at a rate of 10°C / min. At the final temperature of 1200°C, methane gas is passed through at a flow rate of 30mL / min, and the reaction is continued for 25 minutes, causing the pores to rapidly shrink. Step 1: Step 2: Finishing the pore openings by a second chemical vapor deposition to reduce the diameter to less than 0.33 nm, i.e., turning off the methane gas, lowering the temperature to 700°C, passing methane gas at a flow rate of 10 mL / min, and reacting continuously for 300 minutes to further refine the pore openings to reduce the diameter to less than 0.33 nm; and step 3 of stopping the carbon source gas and lowering the temperature to room temperature at a rate of 10°C / min to obtain the sieved carbon.
[0033] As shown in Figure 1, the specific surface area of the porous carbon in step 1 measured by small-angle X-ray scattering was 1420 m 2 / g, and the specific surface area of the sieved carbon obtained in step 3 measured by small-angle X-ray scattering was 1415 m 2 / g, which indicates that none of the deposited carbon enters the pore chambers during the two chemical vapor depositions, achieving the effect of selectively adjusting the pore openings.
[0034] As shown in Figure 2, the specific surface area of the porous carbon measured by nitrogen gas adsorption and desorption in step 1 was 1380 m 2 / g, and after the first chemical vapor deposition in step 1, the specific surface area is 30 m 2 / g, and after the second chemical vapor deposition in step 2, the specific surface area is 5 m 2 / g, indicating that after the first chemical vapor deposition, the pore diameter of most of the pores was already smaller than 0.364 nm (the molecular dynamic diameter of N2), and after the second chemical vapor deposition, the pore diameter of all pores was smaller than 0.364 nm.
[0035] As shown in Figure 3, the specific surface area measured by carbon dioxide adsorption and desorption of porous carbon in step 1 was 1358 m 2 / g, and after the first chemical vapor deposition, the specific surface area was 600 m 2 / g, and after the second chemical vapor deposition, the specific surface area was 6m 2 / g indicates that after the pore size was rapidly reduced by step 1, the diameter of most of the pores was still larger than 0.330 nm (the molecular dynamic diameter of CO2), and after the pores were finished by step 2, the diameter of all the pores was smaller than 0.330 nm.
[0036] During the first chemical vapor deposition, the rapidly decomposed carbon source gas was deposited mainly at the pore mouth, with a small amount deposited outside the pores. As shown in Figure 4, the porous carbon surface did not change significantly before and after the first chemical vapor deposition, indicating that there was no excess carbon deposited outside the pores.
[0037] During the second chemical vapor deposition, the decomposition rate of the carbon source gas was slow, and it was deposited selectively at the pore openings, not outside the pores. As shown in Figure 5, in the case of the secondary deposition, the weight gain of the deposited carbon sealed the pore openings until it was less than 0.33 nm. However, even if the reaction time was extended, the weight gain did not increase, indicating that the deposition reaction occurred only at the pore openings.
[0038] As shown in Figure 6, the structure inside the pore channel did not change before and after the two chemical vapor depositions, and the deposited carbon did not enter the pore chamber, which had a selective effect.
[0039] The sieving mold was used to prepare a battery negative electrode, and the preparation method was as follows. The sieved carbon was used as the negative electrode active material, polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) as the adhesive, and acetylene black as the conductive agent. The mixture was uniformly mixed in a mass ratio of 90:5:5 with NMP (N-methylpyrrolidone) solvent, applied to an electrode film, placed in a vacuum drying box and dried at 120°C for 12 hours, then roll pressed and punched to obtain sieved carbon negative electrode pieces. A metallic sodium sheet was used as the counter electrode, and 1 mol / L NaPF6 (EC:DEC = 1:1) was used as the electrolyte. The sieved carbon negative electrode pieces obtained above were assembled into a 2032 button cell battery in a glove box, and its electrochemical performance was measured.
[0040] As shown in FIG. 7, the sodium ion battery negative electrode prepared in this example had an initial Coulombic efficiency of 93% and a reversible specific capacity of 354 mAh / g, where the low potential platform specific capacity was found to be 280 mAh / g.

At the final temperature of 1200°C, pass methane gas at a flow rate of 30 mL / min, and react continuously for 25 minutes to rapidly shrink the pores. Step 2: Finishing the pore openings by a second chemical vapor deposition to reduce the diameter to less than 0.33 nm, i.e., turning off the methane gas, lowering the temperature to 700°C, passing methane gas at a flow rate of 10 mL / min, and reacting continuously for 300 minutes to further refine the pore openings so that the diameters of all the pore openings are less than 0.33 nm; and step 3 of stopping the carbon source gas and lowering the temperature to room temperature at a rate of 10°C / min to obtain the sieved carbon.

At the final temperature of 1300°C, pass methane gas at a flow rate of 30 mL / min for 25 minutes to react continuously, thereby rapidly sealing the pores on the porous carbon surface. Step 2: Finishing the pore openings by a second chemical vapor deposition to reduce the diameter to less than 0.33 nm, i.e., turning off the methane gas, lowering the temperature to 700°C, passing methane gas at a flow rate of 10 mL / min, and reacting continuously for 300 minutes to further refine the pore openings to reduce the diameter to less than 0.33 nm; and step 3 of stopping the carbon source gas and lowering the temperature to room temperature at a rate of 10°C / min to obtain the sieved carbon.
