Description

Aqueous electrolyte and application thereof
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of electrochemical energy storage. More particularly, to an aqueous electrolyte and its use.
Background
The super capacitor is an electrochemical energy storage device between a traditional capacitor and a secondary battery, and has wide application in the fields of intelligent instruments, new energy vehicles, military high-power supplies and the like. The super capacitor has ultrahigh power density which is more than tens times of that of the secondary battery; the service life is very long, and can reach more than 50 ten thousand cycle life and more than ten years calendar life; however, the super capacitor also has the disadvantage of low energy density, which restricts the development and application thereof. In order to increase the energy storage density of the super capacitor, researchers usually work on both developing high specific volume electrode materials and increasing the operating voltage of the device.
The working voltage of the device is improved, and the super capacitor can also play a significant role in improving the energy density of the super capacitor. From the capacitive storage calculation formula E ═ CU2And 2, the energy storage of the super capacitor can be obviously improved by increasing the working voltage U. The working voltage of the super capacitor is mainly determined by the electrochemical stability window of the electrolyte and the matching performance between the electrolyte and the electrode material. The electrolyte of the super capacitor generally comprises a water-based electrolyte and an organic electrolyte. The aqueous solution system electrolyte is the electrolyte which is applied to the super capacitor at the earliest time, and has the main advantages of high conductivity, effective reduction of internal resistance of a device, small electrolyte molecule diameter, easy full infiltration with micropores, convenient full utilization of surface area and low price. However, the conventional aqueous electrolyte is limited by low decomposition voltage (1.23V) of water, small electrochemical window, and strong acid or strong alkali has strong corrosivity, so that the packaging requirement is severe and the operation is not facilitated. At present, most of commercial super capacitors adopt organic system electrolyte, and the working voltage of the super capacitor adopting the organic system electrolyte to replace water system electrolyte can be improved from 0.9V to 2.5-2.7V. The electrolyte salt commonly used in the organic electrolyte generally adopts quaternary ammonium salt, the production cost is high, and the adopted organic solvent is inflammable and safeThe integrity is poor.
In comparison, the aqueous electrolyte has the advantages of lower impedance, high power, environmental protection, safety and the like, but due to a smaller electrochemical stable voltage window, the commercial application in the field of supercapacitors is behind that of an organic system. Inspiring breakthrough in the research on high-voltage aqueous electrolytes in recent years, the discovery of Suo et al was reported in the journal of Science (Science,2015,350,938.) by the end of 2015, and the water-in-salt system proposed by the invention can greatly improve the electrochemical window of the electrolytes, indicating that the aqueous electrolytes are expected to obtain a working voltage close to that of organic systems. However, the method still faces the problems of high cost, poor interface compatibility, poor high pressure resistance, poor low temperature resistance and the like.
