Description

Preparation method and application of metal sodium negative electrode material
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of sodium metal batteries, and particularly relates to a preparation method and application of a metal sodium cathode material, in particular to a preparation method and application of a metal sodium cathode material rich in a C-O-Na structure lignin organic sodium salt protective layer.
Background
The sodium metal cathode has very high theoretical capacity (approximatively 1166 mAh.g) -1 ) Low redox potential (voltage is-2.71V compared with SHE), high energy density and the like. In addition, the sodium metal cathode can be coupled with a high-potential anode without element sodium, so that the selection range of the battery anode is widened. Based on the above multiple advantages, the sodium metal negative electrode can be used for developing the next generation of high energy density secondary sodium metal battery, and thus has received much attention. However, sodium metal batteries still need to overcome some of the challenges before practical commercial use. The highly active sodium metal negative electrode inevitably reacts with the electrolyte to spontaneously form a Solid Electrolyte Interface (SEI) layer on the surface thereof. During charging and discharging, due to the large volume change of the sodium metal cathode, the interface layer is easy to break in the cycle process, and newly exposed sodium metal can continuously react with the electrolyte to form a new SEI layer so as to consume the electrolyte, so that the battery has low coulombic efficiency and short cycle life. Secondly, sodium dendrites are easily formed on the negative electrode surface of the sodium metal due to uneven sodium ion deposition, and the sodium dendrites penetrate through the diaphragm to cause short circuit inside the battery, so that safety accidents are caused. Sodium dendrites are also susceptible to structural collapse during sodium metal stripping to form "dead sodium" into the electrolyte. The above problems are seriously hinderedPreventing further development of sodium metal batteries.
To overcome the inherent disadvantages and safety problems of rechargeable sodium metal batteries, various methods have been developed to optimize the sodium metal negative electrode to improve its electrochemical stability. Among them, constructing a stable artificial SEI protective layer on the surface of a sodium metal negative electrode has proven to be one of the most effective methods. The main basis is that a protective layer capable of isolating the metal sodium cathode from electrolyte is constructed on the surface of the metal sodium cathode, so that the metal sodium cathode can be prevented from being corroded by the electrolyte in the circulating process and inhibits the growth of dendrites, and the safety and the cycle life of the metal sodium battery are effectively improved. Therefore, how to design a stable and efficient artificial SEI protective layer to realize uniform reversible deposition of sodium ions on the surface of the sodium metal negative electrode has important significance.
American academy reported a method of coating a Na metal surface with a thin layer of Al by a low temperature atomic layer deposition process 2 O 3 Layer, which can enhance its cycling stability. However, the method has the defects of complex process, high cost and difficulty in batch preparation; korean scholars reported a self-supporting thin film directly coated on the surface of sodium metal, the thin film being made of Al 2 O 3 And polyvinylidene fluoride-hexafluoropropylene (PVDF-HFP). Although the method is simple and easy to operate, the film is easy to fall off after multiple cycles, and the problem of the sodium metal cathode cannot be completely solved. Therefore, it is very urgent to develop a protective layer with low cost, simple preparation method and easy operation, so that the sodium metal has high coulombic efficiency and long cycle life.

Verification example 1
The sodium metal negative electrode material prepared in example 1 was analyzed by an infrared spectrometer, and the result is shown in fig. 2. The result showed 1709cm -1 The peak at (corresponding to-C = O) becomes less broad, 1597 and 1035cm -1 The peak at the position (corresponding to Ar-OH) is shifted to a low wave number, which shows that carbonyl and phenolic hydroxyl in the lignin functional group react with metal sodium to form a lignin organic sodium salt protective layer rich in a C-O-Na structure on the surface of the sodium metal cathode.
Subsequently, the metallic sodium negative electrode material of example 1 was analyzed by an electron scanning microscope, and the result is shown in fig. 3. The results show that the lignin organic sodium salt layer completely covers the metal sodium and the surface distribution is uniform.
Further, by analyzing the distribution of young's modulus of the surface of the metal sodium negative electrode material in example 1, it can be seen that the elastic modulus of the artificial protective layer is 12.5 GPa, which can effectively alleviate the side reaction between sodium metal and the electrolyte, ensure the rapid ion transmission, uniform electroplating and low voltage hysteresis, and prevent the dendrite from puncturing the diaphragm (see fig. 4).
Verification example 2
Taking the sodium metal negative electrode materials prepared in the example 1 and the comparative example 1 respectively, cutting the sodium metal negative electrode materials into circular sheets with the diameter of 10mm as electrodes to assemble a symmetrical battery, wherein the electrolytic liquid system is 1M NaClO 4 EC: PC (1: 1) +5% FEC. The cell assembly process was carried out in an inert atmosphere glove box, with all water oxygen content values maintained at 0.1 ppm.
Through detection, the battery cycle performance of the metallic sodium cathode rich in the C-O-Na structure lignin organic sodium salt protective layer in the comparative example 1 and the battery cycle performance of the pure metallic sodium cathode not covered by the protective layer in the comparative example 1 can be seen, the metallic sodium cathode rich in the C-O-Na structure lignin organic sodium salt protective layer can realize uniform deposition of sodium ions, and the uniform deposition of sodium ions is keptLow overpotential and no dendrite growth at 0.5mA cm -2 ,0.5mA·cm -2 Can stably circulate for more than 1500h under the condition of 1mA cm -2 ,1mA·cm -2 Can stably circulate for more than 1300h under the condition. This indicates that the SEI interface is highly stable. The voltage polarization of the pure metal sodium sheet electrode without the protective layer is increased, the potential fluctuation is severe during the circulation process, and the short circuit occurs after about 200-300h of circulation (see figure 5).
Subsequently, by observing the morphology of the electrode surface after 10 cycles of the sodium negative electrode in comparative example 1 and comparative example 1, it can be seen that the metallic sodium negative electrode rich in the lignin organic sodium salt protective layer of the C-O-Na structure still maintains a flat surface after the end of the cycle (see fig. 6), while the pure metallic sodium sheet of comparative example 1 shows many cracks and dendrites after the cycle (see fig. 7). According to prior studies, the bulk structure with sodium dendrites generally has a high specific surface area, which further leads to electrolyte consumption, resulting in low coulombic efficiency during cycling. The results show that the lignin organic protective layer constructed by the invention has obvious improvement on the stability of the sodium metal battery.
Further, the metal sodium electrode materials prepared in example 1 and comparative examples 2 to 4 were taken and tested for cycle performance. The test results are shown in table 1 below.

The result shows that compared with the metallic sodium cathode material prepared by the conventional method in the prior art, the lignin organic sodium salt protective layer rich in the C-O-Na structure, which is obtained according to the invention, can effectively inhibit dendritic crystal growth and realize uniform deposition of sodium in long circulation.

Meanwhile, unstable SEI components can be prevented from being generated in the circulation process, so that the SEI components are more compact, and meanwhile, the corrosion of the electrolyte can be inhibited. The preparation method has good guiding significance in the aspect of modification of the metal battery cathode, particularly the metal sodium battery cathode, and the method is beneficial to large-scale application of the dendrite-free alkali metal cathode.
