In the description herein, it is to be noted that, unless otherwise specified, "above" and "below" are inclusive, and "one or more" of "a plurality" means two or more (including two).
The above summary of the present application is not intended to describe each disclosed embodiment or every implementation of the present application. The following description more particularly exemplifies illustrative embodiments. At various points throughout this application, guidance is provided through a list of embodiments that can be used in various combinations. In each instance, the list is provided only as a representative group and should not be construed as exhaustive.
The lithium ion battery cathode material mainly comprises artificial graphite, hard carbon material and the like. Artificial graphite is the most mature anode material applied in the current lithium ion battery, but the energy density is close to the theoretical limit. With the iterative upgrade of new energy technologies, the urgency of resolving mileage anxiety is increasing, and the demand for high energy density cells (e.g., 400 Wh/kg) is increasing. Compared with graphite, the hard carbon material has a larger intercalation structure and more defects, so that the hard carbon material has higher gram capacity and becomes a new research hotspot of the cathode material. However, the hard carbon material has insufficient lithium storage space. Researchers are urgently required to develop hard carbon materials having high lithium storage space.
For hard carbon materials, a gram capacity of up to about 800mAh/g is required to achieve an energy density requirement of 400 Wh/kg. However, the gram capacities of today's preferred hard carbon materials are on the order of 400-500mAh/g, making it difficult to achieve the design requirements of 400Wh/kg high energy density. Therefore, a low CB value (ratio of negative electrode surface capacity to positive electrode surface capacity) (CB value may be 0.6, for example) system design becomes an indispensable choice at present. In a low CB value system, a part of lithium is intercalated into the carbon material in a lithiated form, and the other part of lithium is precipitated on the surface of the pole piece in a lithium metal form because no more lithium storage space exists in the carbon material, so that the cycle life is ensured. However, lithium precipitated on the surface of the pole piece in the form of lithium metal has serious dendrite growth during the circulation process, and is rapidly lost in direct contact with the electrolyte, causing rapid decay of the cycle life.
For the system with low CB value, in order to reduce the occurrence of lithium precipitation on the surface of the pole piece, the inventor carries out intensive research and proposes a solution, namely, the lithium storage space in the carbon material is increased. Specifically, the inventor designs a porous carbon material, the porous carbon material has a pore structure inside, and lithium-philic substances with lower nucleation overpotential are introduced into pores of the porous carbon material, so that lithium can be induced to be precipitated in the pores in an alloy form with the lithium-philic substances in the charging process, and the pores in the porous carbon material become lithium storage spaces, and lithium metal which is originally precipitated on the surface of a pole piece in a low CB value system can be precipitated in the pores, so that the lithium storage spaces of the carbon material are improved, and if the lithium metal is precipitated in the pores, a battery cell basically does not expand. However, in the prior art, the pores of the porous carbon material do not contain lithium-philic substances, so that the porous carbon material cannot become a lithium storage space.
In addition, through forming the coating on the surface of the porous carbon material, the electrolyte can be prevented from entering the porous carbon material, and the loss caused by contact reaction between the electrolyte and the precipitated lithium alloy is avoided. Meanwhile, by reasonably designing the ratio of the mass of the lithium-philic substances to the volume of the holes, the holes containing the lithium-philic substances can be completely filled with the lithium alloy which is induced to be precipitated as much as possible, and the capacity of the holes is fully utilized.
For a 400Wh/kg energy density design, a CB value of 0.6 may be used herein. Of course, the magnitude of the CB value can be designed according to the specific energy density, and generally, the higher the energy density, the smaller the CB value can be.
The technical scheme described in the embodiment of the application is suitable for a porous carbon material, and is also suitable for a preparation process of the porous carbon material, a lithium ion battery using a negative electrode plate made of a porous carbon material, a battery module using the lithium ion battery, a battery pack using the battery module, and an electric device using at least one of the lithium ion battery, the battery module and the battery pack.
In a first aspect, according to some embodiments of the present application, there is provided a porous carbon material having pores therein. The pores contain a lithium-philic substance. The mass of the lithium-philic substance to volume of the pores is 3:1-32. The surface of the porous carbon material is provided with a coating layer.
In the technical scheme of this application embodiment, through the lithium affinity nature substance that has lower nucleation overpotential of downthehole introduction at porous carbon material for can induce lithium and form the form of alloy with lithium affinity nature substance and separate out in downthehole in charging process, therefore make the inside hole of porous carbon material become and store up lithium space, make among the low CB value system originally can separate out lithium metal that can separate out on the pole piece surface can separate out with the lithium alloy form in downthehole, thereby improved porous carbon material's lithium storage space. However, in the prior art, the pores of the porous carbon material do not contain lithium-philic substances, so that the porous carbon material cannot become a lithium storage space. In addition, through forming the coating on the surface of the porous carbon material, the electrolyte can be prevented from entering the porous carbon material, and the loss caused by contact reaction between the electrolyte and the precipitated lithium alloy is avoided. Meanwhile, by reasonably designing the ratio of the mass of the lithium-philic substances to the volume of the holes, the holes containing the lithium-philic substances can be completely filled with the lithium alloy which is induced to be precipitated as much as possible, and the capacity of the holes is fully utilized. In addition, since the lithium-philic substance is filled in the pores of the porous carbon material, the porous carbon material also has a high compacted density. Therefore, the use of the porous carbon material of the present application also enables an increase in the volumetric energy density of the battery.
In some embodiments, the porous carbon material is preferably a porous hard carbon material. The hard carbon material has a large interlayer distance, which facilitates the intercalation and deintercalation of lithium ions, and thus has excellent charge and discharge properties.
In some embodiments, the pores containing the lithium-philic substance in the porous carbon material are typically of a micron-scale pore structure. The micro-scale pore structure is in a closed pore form observed from a micro scale (i.e. from a macro scale), and in the prior art, the closed pores cannot transport lithium ions, so that electrochemical reaction cannot be carried out in the closed pores, and belong to ineffective pores. According to the invention, the lithium-philic substance with lower nucleation overpotential is introduced into the closed pores, and the power transmission parameters of the closed pores are changed, so that the closed pores are used as lithium storage spaces and become effective electrochemical reaction sites. From the analysis on the nanometer scale (i.e. from the microcosmic scale), in principle, a nanometer-scale pore canal communicated with the micron-scale pore structure exists around the micron-scale pore structure, one end of the nanometer-scale pore canal is communicated with the micron-scale pore structure, and the other end of the nanometer-scale pore canal extends to the surface of the porous carbon material. The nanoscale pore channels are formed by gas overflow in the pyrolysis carbonization treatment process, and lithium-philic substances are not included in the nanoscale pore channels. In order to thoroughly solve the risk that the electrolyte permeates into the micron-scale pore structure through the nanometer-scale pore channel, the inventor forms a coating layer on the surface of the porous carbon material.
In some embodiments of the present application, the microscale pore structure may be an irregular or regular sphere, such as an ellipsoid.
In some embodiments, according to the first aspect, which proposes the first example of the first aspect, the ratio of the mass of the lithium-philic substance to the volume of the pores may be 10.
In the design, the ratio of the mass of the lithium-philic substance to the volume of the pores is further optimized, so that the pores containing the lithium-philic substance can be completely filled with the lithium alloy which is induced to be precipitated as far as possible, and the lithium storage space of the porous carbon material is improved.
In some embodiments of the present application, the mass of the lithium-philic species to volume of the pores may be 10.
In some embodiments, according to the first aspect, which proposes the second example of the first aspect, the lithium-philic substance is one or more of metals Zn, ag, au, ga, in, sn and oxides thereof.
In the design, the lithium-philic substances have lower nucleation overpotential, so that lithium metal can be induced to be separated out in the hole in a lithium alloy form in the charging process, and the lithium metal simple substance is prevented from being separated out on the surface of a pole piece or on the surface of a coating layer of a porous carbon material, so that the lithium metal simple substance is prevented from being contacted with electrolyte and being subjected to irreversible reaction to be consumed, the capacity is reduced, and even the battery core is prevented from losing efficacy.
In some embodiments of the present application, the lithium-philic substance may be one or more of the metals Zn, ag, sn, and oxides thereof. In some embodiments, the lithium-philic substance may be one or more of a mixture of a metal Zn and an oxide thereof, a mixture of a metal Ag and an oxide thereof, and a mixture of a metal Sn and an oxide thereof. Preferably, the lithium-philic substance may be a mixture of metallic Zn and its oxides.
In some embodiments, according to the first aspect, which proposes the third example of the first aspect, the clad layer may have a thickness of 50 to 350nm.
In the design, through optimizing the thickness of the coating layer, the electrolyte can be more effectively prevented from entering the porous carbon material, and the contact reaction of the electrolyte and the precipitated lithium alloy is avoided. In addition, a coating layer is formed on the surface of the porous carbon material, so that holes on the surface of the porous carbon material can be filled, the specific surface area of the porous carbon material is reduced, a better SEI (solid electrolyte interphase) film layer is favorably formed, and the first effect and the cycle life of the battery are improved.
In some embodiments of the present application, the coating may have a thickness of 80-310nm, for example, 80nm, 90nm, 100nm, 110nm, 120nm, 130nm, 140nm, 150nm, 160nm, 170nm, 180nm, 190nm, 200nm, 210nm, 220nm, 230nm, 240nm, 250nm, 260nm, 270nm, 280nm, 290nm, 300nm, or 310nm.
In some embodiments of the present application, the material of the coating layer may be graphite or resin, such as epoxy resin, phenolic resin, and polyamide resin.
In some embodiments according to the first aspect which proposes the fourth example of the first aspect, the pores have a pore diameter of 0.1 to 10 μm.
In the design, the small aperture can lead to insufficient lithium storage space, the requirement of high energy density of the battery cell 400Wh/kg is difficult to meet, and the large aperture can cause difficulty increase of the phase transmission process of lithium precipitation and lithium removal in the hole.
In some embodiments of the present application, the pores may have a pore size of 0.1 μm, 0.5 μm, 1 μm, 2 μm, 3 μm, 4 μm, 5 μm, 6 μm, 7 μm, 8 μm, 9 μm, 10 μm. In principle, many pores of different pore diameters exist inside the porous carbon material. Thus, the pore size of the pores is in a certain range, for example, may be in the range of 0.1 to 10 μm or 1 to 5 μm.
In some embodiments, according to the first aspect which proposes the fifth example of the first aspect, the mass ratio of the lithium-philic substance to the porous carbon material is 9:1 to 1.5.
Since the amount of the lithium-philic substance determines the amount of lithium deposition, the content of the lithium-philic substance, that is, the mass ratio of the lithium-philic substance to the porous carbon material can be increased as appropriate in order to increase the amount of lithium deposition and further increase the lithium storage space of the porous carbon material.
In some embodiments of the present application, the mass ratio of the lithium philic substance to the porous carbon material may be 8:1-2:1, for example 8:1, 7:1, 6:1, 5:1, 4:1, 3:1, or 2:1.
In some embodiments, according to the first aspect, it is provided that the porous carbon material is in a granular form. The particle diameter of the particulate porous carbon material is 10 to 30 μm.
In this design, by optimizing the particle diameter of the particles, it is more favorable to form pores containing the lithium-philic substance inside the particles.
The principle of lithium deposition on the porous carbon material negative electrode will be analyzed below.
The lithium precipitation on the porous carbon material negative electrode comprises: and (3) precipitating lithium in the pores and precipitating lithium on the surface of the pole piece or the surface of the carbon material. In the present application, the principle of lithium deposition in the pores is: firstly, lithium ions obtain an electron to form a metallic lithium simple substance, and then the lithium simple substance reacts with a carbon simple substance in a porous carbon material to generate LiC 6 Finally, the lithium-philic substance is reacted with LiC 6 Reacting to produce the lithium alloy. The principle of lithium precipitation on the surface of the pole piece or the surface of the carbon material is as follows: the lithium ions obtain an electron to form a metallic lithium simple substance. Because the lithium-philic substance has lower nucleation overpotential, lithium metal can be induced to be separated out in the hole in a lithium alloy form in the charging process, and the separation of the lithium metal simple substance on the surface of a pole piece or the surface of a carbon material is avoided, so that the situation that the lithium metal simple substance is contacted with electrolyte and generates irreversible reaction to be consumed, the capacity is reduced, and even the battery core is invalid is avoided.
A second aspect of the present application provides a method for producing a porous carbon material, comprising:
mixing resin, lithium-philic chloride salt, a pore-forming agent and a solvent to obtain a mixture;
curing the mixture to obtain a carbon precursor;
carrying out pyrolysis carbonization treatment on the carbon precursor, and after acid washing, obtaining a porous carbon material; and
and coating the surface of the obtained porous carbon material to form a coating layer.
