Description

Ultra-small molybdenum carbide @ carbon composite material and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of nano composite materials, and particularly relates to an ultra-small molybdenum carbide @ carbon composite material as well as a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
When the elemental sulfur is used as the anode material of the lithium-sulfur battery, the elemental sulfur has very high theoretical specific capacity (1675 mAh g) -1 ) And theoretical specific energy (2600 Wh kg) -1 ) It is considered to be one of the best choices for the next-generation high energy density secondary battery. However, the lithium-sulfur battery cathode material still faces many challenges on the way to commercialization, for example: 1) S 8 And Li 2 S has low conductivity. S 8 And its discharge product Li 2 S is to electricitySeed and Li + Are all insulating, which limits the redox kinetics on the positive side. This results in low sulfur utilization and ultimately low specific capacity. 2) Dissolution and shuttling effects of intermediate polysulfides (LiPSs). The intermediate LiPSs produced during cycling readily dissolved into the electrolyte and then shuttled from the positive to the negative side. This results in low coulombic efficiency and severe capacity fade. 3) From S 8 To Li 2 Volume expansion during lithiation of S. In view of S 8 (2.07g cm -3 ) And Li 2 S(1.66g cm -3 ) Of different density, S 8 A large volume expansion of about 80% is experienced upon full lithiation. This may cause pulverization of the electrode after repeated volume changes of the positive electrode during cycling, resulting in poor cycle performance. In order to solve the above problems, it is imperative to improve the conductivity of elemental sulfur and suppress the shuttle effect in the electrode reaction. The ideal sulfur positive electrode matrix should satisfy the following preconditions: 1) High electronic and ionic conductivity; 2) High specific surface area and large pore volume to accommodate sulfur and LiPS; 3) Optimal affinity for LiPS, since too weak anchoring leads to severe shuttling effects, while too strong binding leads to slow diffusion processes of LiPSs; 4) Abundant catalytic active centers to accelerate redox kinetics.
The porous carbon material with a specific topological structure is constructed, so that the porous carbon material with a specific topological structure is a common method for improving poor conductivity and relieving volume effect by utilizing good conductivity, large specific surface area and adjustable porous structure, such as one-dimensional Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) or Carbon Nanowires (CNFs), two-dimensional graphene or carbon nanosheets, three-dimensional porous carbon materials and the like. However, the nonpolar surface of such materials interacts weakly with polar polysulfides and will face problems of loss of LiPSs dissolution and rapid capacity fade when sulfur loading is increased. To suppress the problems of low sulfur utilization and capacity fade caused by the "shuttling effect", the introduction of active substances with adsorption or catalytic capabilities is an effective strategy. Metal carbides such as Mo, as compared to weakly adsorbing non-polar carbon materials and poorly conducting polar active substances 2 C has better conductivity and better chemical adsorption capacity to LiPSs, can provide a binding site for reaction and has good electronsThe transfer can effectively catalyze the conversion of the discharge end product and slow down the shuttle effect. By constructing the molybdenum carbide @ carbon composite integrated electrode with an optimized structure, the synergistic promotion effect of all materials can be comprehensively exerted, the electrochemical performance and the cycling stability are effectively improved, and the service life of the battery is prolonged. Currently, the preparation methods of molybdenum carbide generally comprise the following steps: 1. temperature programmed reaction method, namely, molybdenum oxide precursor is added into light hydrocarbon or light hydrocarbon/H 2 The mixed gas is heated and carbonized. The method is simple and easy to regulate, and the product is purer, but the method is easy to cause the surface area of the catalyst to be carbonized, and the specific surface area of the obtained molybdenum carbide is smaller; 2. the carbothermic reduction method is characterized in that molybdenum oxide and a proper amount of carbon carrier react in a protective atmosphere or a reducing atmosphere, and the obtained product has a large specific surface area, but the reaction temperature is usually high; 3. a solvent thermal reduction method, which adopts a substance (KBH) with strong reducing power 4 ) The method is simple and easy to control, the temperature is low, but the product is impure; 4. the metal precursor cracking method is prepared by using a metal organic compound and a mixture of ammonium molybdate and hexamethylenetetramine for high-temperature cracking, but the precursor is complex to prepare, and the prepared particles are large. In addition, there are reports of CVD, hydrothermal method, ultrasonic method, microwave method, etc., but these methods also have problems of small yield, insufficient reaction, large product particles, and impure product. The above methods have limitations and inherent characteristics and have great disadvantages in practical applications, particularly in mass production of catalysts.
