Description

Ionic liquid-like electrolyte for aluminum secondary battery and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of battery materials, in particular to an ionic liquid-like electrolyte and a preparation method thereof, and the ionic liquid-like electrolyte is applied to an aluminum secondary battery.
Background
Under the rapid promotion of the economic globalization process and the continuous development of the human society, the human demand for energy is increased year by year, and 70 percent of the total energy consumed in the world every year comes from fossil fuels such as petroleum, coal, natural gas and the like. In view of the ever increasing demand for fossil fuels and the limited availability of non-renewable resources, stable energy supply is a crucial global issue. Meanwhile, a large amount of greenhouse gases generated when fossil fuels are burned are problematic in terms of climate change caused by an increase in atmospheric concentration. Increased awareness of the environment and concerns about energy safety have prompted society to seek ways to generate, utilize, and store energy in a more sustainable and efficient manner.
Nowadays, sustainable renewable energy sources such as wind energy, light energy, tidal energy, chemical power sources and the like are actively developed all over the world, and batteries can store and convert energy sources whether the renewable energy sources are renewable energy sources or non-renewable energy sources, so that the batteries play an increasingly important role. Since the first commercialization of lithium ion batteries by sony corporation in 1991, lithium ion batteries have been the leading position in the market of portable electronic products, and show great prospects in large-scale applications such as electric vehicles and smart grids. The lithium ion battery has the advantages of high specific energy, low self-discharge, no memory effect, environmental friendliness and the like, gradually becomes a novel chemical power supply which is developed fastest at present, and has very wide application in a plurality of fields such as new energy automobiles, aerospace, 3C digital codes and the like. However, due to the astronomical demand for lithium and other key elements (e.g., metallic cobalt, etc.) and the uneven distribution of lithium resources around the world, it remains an urgent task to develop a replacement system that is abundant and cost-advantageous. Because the aluminum ions can realize three-electron conversion in the electrochemical processThe aluminum has the characteristic of extremely low density, and can provide the highest volume specific capacity (8050 mAh/cm)3). Although aluminum has a higher electrochemical redox potential than other metals (-2.71V compared to a common hydrogen electrode (NHE)), its theoretical specific mass capacity (2980mAh/g) is second only to lithium, and is third in the earth's crust, with very low cost and a cation radius even smaller than that of lithium ions. In addition to the above advantages, the high stability of aluminum in air and moisture leads to a significant improvement in safety compared to lithium ion batteries. Aluminum secondary batteries with a wide application prospect are considered to be one of the most promising next-generation energy storage systems.
In recent years, aluminum secondary batteries have attracted much attention, and most of the existing aluminum secondary batteries are made of ionic liquid aluminum trichloride/1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride (AlCl)3EMImCl) as an electrolyte. Ionic liquids are salts consisting of organic cations and inorganic/organic anions that are liquid at room temperature. Due to its low flammability, high thermal stability, negligible vapor pressure, wide voltage window, ionic liquids have attracted extensive attention. However, the high viscosity of the extremely expensive ionic liquid at normal temperature and the compatibility of the electrode material of the battery have been problems, which have hindered the development of aluminum secondary batteries. The cheap and stable ionic liquid analogue (similar ionic liquid) is applied to the aluminum secondary battery and becomes a hotspot of battery research work in recent years, has the characteristics of the ionic liquid, has the advantages of easily available raw materials, low price, simple and convenient synthesis and the like, and is an aluminum secondary battery electrolyte system with high performance, high safety, long cycle life and low cost and great prospect.
Ionic liquid-like liquids, which may also be referred to as ionic liquid analogs, eutectic solvents, refer to two-or three-component eutectic mixtures of hydrogen bond acceptors (e.g., quaternary ammonium salts) and hydrogen bond donors (e.g., amides, carboxylic acids, and polyols) in stoichiometric proportions, with freezing points significantly below the melting points of the pure materials of the individual components. The physicochemical properties of the ionic liquid were very similar to those of the ionic liquid, as first reported by Abbott et al in 2003. The organic solvent is a new green solvent due to unique properties such as easy synthesis, low cost, environmental friendliness, low volatility, high dissolving capacity, high biodegradability and feasibility of structural design. Unlike ionic liquids in the conventional definition, ionic liquids refer to liquids composed entirely of ions, substances composed of ions that are liquid at or around room temperature. The ion-like liquid not only contains ions, but also contains neutral ligand groups in molecular form and cationic groups formed by heterolysis, and the eutectic temperature of the ion-like liquid is more widely defined and is not limited to the range of room temperature and the range near the room temperature. Compared with ionic liquid, the ionic liquid has the advantages of low cost, easy preparation, low toxicity, environmental friendliness and the like.
