Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium ion batteries, and particularly relates to a metal lithium composite negative electrode material, a preparation method thereof and a lithium ion battery.
Background
The lithium ion battery has been developed for more than half a century, and has the advantages of high energy density, small self-discharge, long service life and the like. However, with the rapid development of the modern society, it has become increasingly unable to meet the demand of people for high energy density batteries.
Compared with lithium ion batteries which are close to the theoretical specific energy limit, the lithium metal is considered to be an ideal negative electrode material of next generation high energy density lithium batteries due to the ultrahigh theoretical specific capacity (3860mAh/g) and the extremely low potential (-3.04V, relative to a standard hydrogen electrode). However, the uneven deposition/peeling behavior of lithium metal during charging and discharging is very likely to induce the growth of lithium dendrites, resulting in lower coulombic efficiency and potential safety hazard of the battery, which makes the secondary lithium metal battery to be not commercialized.
In order to solve the problem of lithium dendrite, researchers have tried various methods, and currently, the commonly used methods include adding functional additives (such as Cs salt, DTD, etc.) into an electrolyte, constructing an SEI film on the surface of lithium metal (including an in-situ method and an ex-situ method, wherein the in-situ method is a method of spontaneously forming SEI on the surface of a negative electrode by using lithium salt, functional additives, etc., and the ex-situ method is an artificial SEI), and constructing a three-dimensional framework structure. However, these methods all have certain limitations, and the electrolyte functional additives such as Cs salt have extremely high requirements on concentration accuracy. Artificial SEI film construction methods such as Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) require the use of special equipment, are complicated in flow and expensive. And the methods mainly used for constructing the 3D negative electrode include electrochemical pretreatment, a melting method, and the like. Among them, electrochemical pretreatment requires the battery to be reassembled and disassembled, which is difficult to realize large-scale application, the melting method requires lithium to be in a molten state, the danger coefficient is large, and the material compounded with the lithium-philic pretreatment needs to have lithium-philic property.
In comparison, the method for preparing the composite cathode material by the rolling method is more convenient and more expected to realize large-scale production and application, and researchers directly roll and compound lithium metal with carbon paper, a copper/nickel net and the like by the method to obtain the composite material with excellent performance, but the materials such as the copper net/nickel net and the carbon paper are not superior in the aspects of weight, thickness and the like. There are also researchers who repeatedly fold and roll materials by sprinkling a metal oxide or the like on lithium, but it is obviously difficult to obtain a material with a uniformly distributed composite by this method. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop a simple preparation method of composite material which can be produced and applied in large scale.

And (3) performance testing:
1. the battery of example 1 and comparative example 1 was subjected to constant current charging to 4.3V at 0.2C at an ambient temperature of 25 ℃ on a blue tester, followed by charging to 0.05C under a constant voltage of 4.3V, respectively, followed by discharging to 3.0V at 0.5C, and the above-described charge and discharge processes were repeated N times to perform charge and discharge cycle life tests, the test results of which are shown in fig. 4;
2. the batteries prepared in examples 1 to 5 and comparative example 1 were subjected to constant current charge and discharge tests at 0.2C charge and 0.5C discharge rate, respectively, and the number of cycles at which the thickness of the battery increased by 0.2m, 0.5mm, 0.8mm, 1mm and short circuit occurred was recorded, and the test results are shown in table 1.
TABLE 1
As can be seen from table 1, the battery prepared by using the metal lithium composite electrode material prepared by the present invention as a negative electrode can well inhibit the increase of the thickness of the battery, because the metal lithium composite electrode material contains a three-dimensional structure, which can provide an attachment site for the particle lithium, so that the lithium is not directly contacted with the electrolyte under the protection of the three-dimensional framework, and the generation of lithium dendrites is avoided, thereby inhibiting the increase of the thickness, and further avoiding the short circuit caused by the penetration of the diaphragm by the excessively long-grown lithium dendrites. Moreover, as can be seen from examples 1 to 5, when the weight parts of the carbon powder, the conductive agent and the three-dimensional structure material are controlled to be 6:2:3, the prepared lithium metal composite electrode material and the battery have more excellent performance, better inhibit thickness growth, are not easy to short circuit and have long service life.
As can be seen from fig. 4, in comparative example 1, a 50 μm metal lithium tape is used as a negative electrode, in comparative example 2, a metal lithium composite electrode material prepared without a three-dimensional structure material is used as a negative electrode, and a battery prepared by using the metal lithium composite electrode material prepared in example 1 of the present invention as a negative electrode is subjected to a charge-discharge cycle test, when the comparative example 1 is charged and discharged for about 120 times, the capacity retention rate of the capacitor of the comparative example 1 is 90%, the capacity protection rate of the capacitor of the comparative example 2 is 98%, and the capacity retention rate of the battery is 98% in this embodiment, which means that the battery capacity protection rate can be effectively improved by adding a conductive agent and carbon powder into the lithium tape, when the number of charge and discharge times is increased to about 180 times, the capacity retention rate of the battery of the embodiment 1 is 92.5%, and the capacity protection rate of the comparative example 2 falls to 84%, which means that the carbon powder, the conductive agent and the three-dimensional structure material are compounded according to a certain weight portion, the prepared battery has good endurance, long battery performance, difficult occurrence of lithium dendrite and short circuit, and long service life.
Variations and modifications to the above-described embodiments may also occur to those skilled in the art, which fall within the scope of the invention as disclosed and taught herein. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, and any obvious improvement, replacement or modification made by those skilled in the art based on the present invention is within the protection scope of the present invention.
