Abstract

The invention discloses a surface-passivated ultrathin lithium foil and a preparation method thereof. The ultrathin lithium metal foil with the uniform and passivated surface is obtained by performing surface treatment on the ultrathin lithium metal foil by using argon plasma in the atmosphere containing a small amount of carbon dioxide. The ultrathin lithium foil obtained by the invention has better stability in air, and the lithium metal battery assembled with the oxide anode has longer cycle life.

Description

Lithium foil surface passivation method and application thereof in lithium metal battery
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium batteries, and particularly relates to a surface-passivated ultrathin lithium foil, a preparation method thereof and application thereof in a lithium metal battery.
Background
Lithium metal batteries, which are capable of providing higher energy densities than current lithium ion batteries, are one of the hot spots in current battery technology research. The high energy density battery needs to use a metal lithium foil with a smaller thickness to reduce the overall weight of the battery and improve the overall energy density of the battery. However, lithium metal is very active and requires a surface passivation treatment for better air stability and cycle stability.
Some lithium metal surface passivation methods have been disclosed only for preparing passivated lithium powders (particles), such as CN108176859B and CN105762328B, but the lithium reactivity is too strong, the passivation of thin lithium foil by conventional methods has a large defect, the lithium used as the active material of the battery is easily consumed too much, and the produced passivation layer is also not pure, which affects the performance of the battery. The conventional method cannot be applied to passivation of ultra-thin lithium metal foils. In order to solve the problem, the invention uses argon plasma to carry out surface treatment on the ultrathin lithium metal foil in the atmosphere containing a small amount of carbon dioxide to obtain the ultrathin lithium foil with a uniformly passivated surface. The ultrathin lithium foil obtained by the invention has better stability in air, and the lithium metal battery assembled with the oxide anode has longer cycle life.
The invention content is as follows:
the present invention has been made to solve the problems of the prior art, and an object of the present invention is to prepare a surface-passivated ultra-thin lithium foil, which improves its air stability and cycle stability in a lithium metal battery.
Characteristics of surface-passivated ultra-thin lithium foil:
1. the thickness of the metal lithium layer is not more than 50 microns;
2. the surface of the material is mainly Li 2 CO 3 The thickness is 10-30 nm.
The preparation method comprises the following steps:
the lithium metal foil was placed in a plasma cleaner (Diener, Femto model) inside an argon-protected glove box with a power of 25-75W and a treatment time of 10-20 min.
Drawings
FIG. 1 is a lithium foil after plasma treatment;
FIG. 2 shows XPS results of plasma-treated lithium foil surfaces(surface is mainly Li) 2 CO 3 );
FIG. 3 shows XPS results for lithium foil surfaces that were not plasma treated (surfaces with predominantly C-C, C-H organic contaminants).
Compared with the prior art, the surface of the ultrathin lithium foil with passivated surface, prepared by the invention, uniformly forms pure Li with the particle size of 10-30 nm 2 CO 3 The air stability of the lithium foil and the cycle stability in the lithium metal battery are improved, and the lithium metal battery assembled with the oxide positive electrode has longer cycle life.
Detailed Description
Example 1
3 lithium metal foils having a diameter of 12 mm and a thickness of 50 μm were placed in a chamber of a plasma cleaner (model Femto from Diener) placed inside an argon-protected glove box, and argon gas (containing 100 ppm of CO) was introduced into the chamber 2 ) And 3 samples 1 were obtained by treating for 20 min at a plasma power of 25W. 1 of these sheets was placed in 30% humidity air for 30min, and air stability evaluation was performed. Another 1 slice adopts X-ray photoelectron spectrum-depth analysis technique to measure Li 2 CO 3 The thickness of the layer. Example 2: 2 lithium metal foils having a diameter of 12 mm and a thickness of 30 μm were placed in a chamber of a plasma cleaner (model Femto from Diener) placed inside an argon-shielded glove box, and argon gas (containing 100 ppm of CO) was introduced into the chamber 2 ) Sample 2 was obtained by treating for 12 min at a plasma power of 50W. 1 of these tablets was placed in air of 30% humidity for 30min for air stability evaluation. Another 1 slice adopts X-ray photoelectron spectrum-depth analysis technique to measure Li 2 CO 3 The thickness of the layer.
Example 3
2 lithium metal foils having a diameter of 12 mm and a thickness of 20 μm were placed in a chamber of a plasma cleaner (model Femto from Diener) placed inside an argon-shielded glove box, and argon gas (containing 100 ppm of CO) was introduced into the chamber 2 ) Treating at a plasma power of 75WFor 10 min, sample 3 was obtained. 1 of these sheets was placed in 30% humidity air for 30min, and air stability evaluation was performed. Another 1 slice adopts X-ray photoelectron spectrum-depth analysis technique to measure Li 2 CO 3 The thickness of the layer.
Example 4
The preparation method was the same as example 1, and the obtained surface-passivated lithium metal foil and 811-type ternary cathode material (LiNi) were used 0.8 Mn 0.1 Co 0.1 O 2 ) A separator, and an electrolytic solution (1M lithium hexafluorophosphate dissolved in a volume ratio of 1: 1 dimethyl carbonate and fluoroethylene carbonate) were assembled into button cells in an argon-protected glove box and the test was terminated by charging and discharging at 0.2C rate over a voltage range of 4.3-2.8V until the capacity dropped to 80% of the initial capacity.
Comparative example 1
Lithium metal foil 2 sheets having a diameter of 12 mm and a thickness of 50 μm were purchased without surface treatment. 1 of these sheets was placed in 30% humidity air for 30min, and air stability evaluation was performed. The other 1 piece adopts X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy-depth analysis technique to measure the surface composition and the existing depth.
Comparative example 2
The surface-passivated lithium metal foil was replaced with a commercially available lithium metal foil having a diameter of 12 mm and a thickness of 50 μm without surface treatment, as in example 4
