[0028] Further, the set atmosphere is one or a combination of several of nitrogen, argon, helium, carbon dioxide, chlorine, water vapor, and air.

[0029] Further, the hard carbon forming the three-dimensional carbon matrix is formed by high-temperature carbonization of an organic thermosetting precursor; the regulating of the reaction conditions under a set atmosphere refers to, during the carbonization process of the organic thermosetting precursor, adjusting the pore structure and open-closed pore ratio of the carbonization product by controlling the temperature rising curve, system pressure, and system atmosphere, to further control the true density of the carbonization product.

[0030] Further, the hard carbon includes one or more of pitch, cellulose, sucrose, glucose, phenolic resin, starch, coal, and heavy oil.

[0031] Further, the X-ray diffraction pattern of the hard carbon negative electrode material has characteristic peaks specific to hard carbon in the range of 20° to 30° and 35° to 50°.

[0032] The preparation method of the hard carbon negative electrode material comprises the following steps:

[0033] (1) crushing the carbon matrix raw material to a set particle size;

[0034] (2) mixing the carbon matrix raw material, and then pre-carbonizing at a temperature of 200 to 1000°C in an atmosphere of inert gas / air / carbon dioxide / water vapor;

[0035] (3) dispersing the pre-carbonized carbon matrix to 3 to 20 microns to obtain a negative electrode material precursor;

[0036] (4) high-temperature carbonizing the negative electrode material precursor at a temperature of 1000 to 1800°C, and in this process, precisely controlling the pore structure of different negative electrode material precursors by controlling the temperature, pressure, and reaction atmosphere; and finally obtaining a hard carbon negative electrode material with a closed pore volume of 0.01 cm 3 / g cp <0.5 cm 3 / g.

[0037] Further, the carbon matrix raw material comprises one or more of biomass and modified products thereof, coal and modified products thereof, pitch and modified products thereof, resin and modified products thereof.

[0038] The sodium ion battery comprises the hard carbon negative electrode material.

[0039] The hard carbon negative electrode material has a three-dimensional porous carbon matrix with a controllable closed pore structure, and the proportion of the closed pore volume of the hard carbon negative electrode material is: 0.5 cm 3 / g cp / cm OP+CP <1 cm 3 / g; in the formula, V cp is the closed pore volume of the hard carbon negative electrode material, and the unit is cm 3 / g; V OP+CP is the total pore volume of the sum of the open pores and the closed pores of the hard carbon negative electrode material, and the unit is cm 3 / g.

[0040] Further, the range of V cp is 0.01 to 0.5 cm 3 / g; and the range of V OP+CP is 0.01 to 2 cm 3 / g.

[0041] Preferably, the closed pore volume V cp satisfies: 0.1 cm 3 / g < V cp ≤ 0.5 cm 3 / g, for example, can be 0.1 cm 3 / g, 0.15 cm 3 / g, 0.2 cm 3 / g, 0.25 cm 3 / g or 0.3 cm 3 / g, etc., but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values within the range are also applicable.

[0042] Generally, hard carbon is synthesized by high-temperature carbonization of organic thermosetting precursors such as cellulose, sucrose, glucose, phenolic resin, starch, coal, heavy oil, etc. During pyrolysis, the precursor carbon layer is prone to form a vortex layer and disordered microstructure graphite clusters composed of surface defects, nanopores or voids. In this process, sodium ions first appear in the defect sites of the inclined region hard carbon and are adsorbed (0.1-1 V vs Na / Na + ), and then sodium clusters are formed in the platform region (0-0.1 V vs Na / Na + ). The closed pores are mainly responsible for sodium storage in the low-pressure platform. Increasing the number of closed pores and the size of nanopores can maximize the capacity of the platform to generate hard carbon, and the number and proportion of closed pores are characterized and measured by the true density of the negative electrode material.

[0043] In the present application, the empirical relationship between the closed pore volume and the true density of the hard carbon negative electrode material is as follows: V cp = 1 / ρ 真 - 1 / (2.26 x 0.3354 / d002 act )

[0044] In the formula, ρ 真 is the true density of the hard carbon negative electrode material, with a unit of g / cm 3 .

[0045] In the present application, the true density ρ 真 of the hard carbon negative electrode material can be 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8, 1.9, 2.0, 2.1 or 2.2, etc.

[0046] During the carbonization process of the organic thermosetting precursor, molecular rearrangement and gas escape occur. By controlling the temperature rise curve, system pressure and system atmosphere, the present application adjusts the pore structure and open / closed pore ratio of the carbonization product, and further controls the true density of the carbonization product, i.e. ρ 真= (0.75T / 620) p0- 0.25 (T / 1000) (P / P0) 0.3 .

[0047] When the true density and the closed pore volume satisfy the relationship of the present application, the capacity and the coulombic efficiency of the negative electrode material can be improved. When the true density is lower than the limited range of the relationship, the characteristic pores will collapse due to the insufficient strength of the pore wall, thereby reducing the specific capacity; and when the true density is higher than the limited range of the relationship, no suitable characteristic pores will be generated, or the generated characteristic pores are insufficient, thereby reducing the specific capacity.

[0048] Preferably, the carbon matrix of the present application comprises hard carbon.

[0049] Preferably, as shown in Figure 1, the hard carbon negative electrode material of the present application has a characteristic peak in the range of 20°-30° in the X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectrum, and the half-peak width of the characteristic peak is 5-20, for example, it can be 5, 7, 10, 12, 15, 17 or 20, etc., but is not limited to the listed values, and other values not listed in this range are also applicable. The characteristic peak in the range of 20°-30° in the present application reflects the carbon layer spacing and the degree of interlayer order.

[0050] Preferably, the hard carbon negative electrode material of the present application has a characteristic peak in the range of 35°-50° in the X-ray diffraction spectrum, and the characteristic peak in the range of 35°-50° reflects the degree of carbon layer order and the grain size.

[0051] Preferably, the preparation method of the hard carbon negative electrode material of the present application is as follows:

[0052] (1) crushing the carbon matrix raw material to a set particle size;

[0053] (2) mixing the carbon matrix raw material, and then pre-carbonizing at a temperature of 200-600°C in an inert gas / air / carbon dioxide atmosphere;

[0054] (3) dispersing the pre-carbonized carbon matrix to 3-20 microns to obtain a negative electrode material precursor;

[0055] (4) high-temperature carbonizing the negative electrode material precursor at a temperature of 1000-1800°C to obtain the hard carbon negative electrode material.

[0057] Preferably, the carbon matrix raw material includes any one or a combination of two or more of biomass and modified products thereof, coal and modified products thereof, pitch and modified products thereof, resin and modified products thereof.
