Definitions
- This invention relates to an electrochemical element, which comprises an electrolyte, an anode, a cathode and current collectors for the anode and the cathode, wherein the anode comprises as a host material for alkali metal ions.
- the invention also relates to a process for producing such an electrochemical element and components thereof.
- Insertion compounds have widely been used in electrochemical elements as a host material of the electrodes . Examples of such insertion compounds are carbons and spinels of an alkali metal and a transition metal oxide.
- conventional lithium batteries may be based, as the cathode material, on a spinel of which the alkali metal is lithium and, as the anode material, on carbon.
- alkali metal ions are extracted from the host material of the cathode into the electrolyte and alkali metal ions are inserted from the electrolyte into the host material of the anode.
- the reverse processes take place during discharging the electrochemical element.
- spinel type material embraces the spinel in question itself and the materials, which can be formed from the spinel by electrochemical extraction/insertion of alkali metal ion such as during a charge/discharge cycle.
- Electrochemical elements also comprise metal based current collectors which are in contact with the electrodes and which connect the electrodes with the electrical circuitry which is powered by the electrochemical element during its discharge or from which the electrical element receives power during its charge.
- Many commercial operations take place under harsh conditions, such as at temperatures substantially above room temperature. Such high temperature operations take place, for example, inside processing equipment used in the chemical industry, and in down hole locations in the exploration and production of gas and oil. In such operations measuring and control devices may be used which need a source of electrical energy.
- the electrochemical elements applied in commercial operations need to be composed of materials which -as such and in combination- withstand the conditions under which they are employed, preferably for a long period of time.
- the anode current collectors are frequently made of stainless steel, nickel or copper, in particular when used in combination with a carbon-based anode.
- stainless steel, nickel and copper current collectors withstand harsh conditions, where e.g. an aluminium current collector is sensitive to corrosion, in particular in combination with a carbon based anode.
- EP-A-470492 discloses a nickel or stainless steel anode current collector used in combination with a carbon-based anode.
- EP-A-989622 discloses the use of a copper anode current collector in combination with an anode, which comprises a Li4 i5 ⁇ ]_2 spinel type material. Because stainless steel, nickel and copper are relatively high in density, these metals contribute significantly to the weight of the electrochemical element and they cause that the electrochemical element has a relatively low power density on a weight basis. Further, stainless steel, nickel and copper are relatively expensive metals. The use of nickel and copper in electrochemical elements is also disadvantageous in view of environmental concerns.
- an aluminium based current collector can be used in combination with an anode which comprises as the host material for alkali metal ions a spinel type material which is an alkali metal titanium oxide, without or with a greatly reduced danger of corrosion when the electrochemical element is used in commercial, long duration operations, in particular at a relatively high temperature. Further, the use of aluminium takes away or reduces the disadvantages seen with the stainless steel, nickel and copper based anion current collectors.
- the present invention provides an electrochemical element which comprises an electrolyte, an anode, a cathode, and current collectors for the anode and the cathode, wherein the anode comprises as a host material for alkali metal ions a spinel type material which is an alkali metal titanium oxide and wherein the current collector of the anode is an aluminium metal based current collector.
