Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. It is to be understood that the embodiments described are only a few embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the described embodiments of the invention, are within the scope of the invention.
First, a copper manganese-based layered oxide material and a method for preparing the same according to an embodiment of the present invention will be specifically described.
For sodium ion batteries, which are one of the hot spots in current research, much research is currently conducted on the NaTMO of the P2 phase 2 NaTMO with O3 2 There is a problem that the electrochemical cycle performance and the first-cycle charge capacity cannot be compatible. In view of the above, the present inventors have found that the P3 phase copper-manganese-based layered oxide can be compatible with each other through extensive studies.
According to the first aspect of the invention, the provided copper-manganese-based layered oxide material is used for a sodium-ion battery, and the molecular formula of the copper-manganese-based layered oxide material is Na x M y Cu a Mn 0.7 O 2+α Wherein M is one or more of alkali metal and alkaline earth metal elements, x is more than or equal to 0.75 and less than or equal to 1,0<y≤0.3,0<a is less than or equal to 0.3, alpha is more than or equal to-0.02 and less than or equal to 0.02, and the space group of the copper-manganese based layered oxide material is R3m.
According to the copper-manganese-based layered oxide material disclosed by the embodiment of the invention, good air stability and safety are realized by using copper element, and by means of high activity of M metal (namely alkali metal or alkaline earth metal), divalent to trivalent copper is converted, and the valence change from three-point pentavalent to tetravalent manganese can realize higher first-cycle charge capacity, excellent cycle performance and rate performance. And no metal (such as Fe) causing material instability is introduced, and the cycling stability under high voltage can be realized. In addition, the space group of the copper-manganese-based layered oxide material is R3m, namely P3 phase, and more Na is introduced compared with P2 phase (the repulsion between the adjacent transition metal layers of P3 phase is weaker than that of P2 phase, so that more sodium ions can be accommodated), so that the stability in the electrochemical cycle process is better, and the charging capacity is further improved while the higher electrochemical cycle performance is maintained.
According to some embodiments of the invention, wherein M is any one or more selected from the group consisting of sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, beryllium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, barium. The M metal is more preferably potassium, magnesium, calcium, or barium, in consideration of the combination of binding activity, economy, and abundance of resources.
Further, y + a =0.3. That is, 30at% of Mn is replaced by M together with Cu. The component proportion is favorable for further improving the stability of the composite material in the air, and simultaneously, the first-week charge capacity and the electrochemical cycle performance can be considered.
As an example, the copper manganese-based layered oxide material according to the present invention may include Na, for example 0.75 K 0.2 Mn 0.7 Cu 0.1 O 2 、Na 0.8 K 0.1 Mn 0.7 Cu 0.2 O 2 、Na 0.8 Mg 0.05 Mn 0.7 Cu 0.2 O 2 、Na 0.8 Mg 0.1 Mn 0.7 Cu 0.1 O 2 、Na 0.8 Mg 0.1 Mn 0.7 Cu 0.1 O 2 、Na 0.8 K 0.1 Mn 0.7 Cu 0.2 O 2 、Na 0.8 K 0.1 Mn 0.7 Cu 0.2 O 2 And the like. Of course, the above are merely examples, and the present invention is not limited thereto.
The following describes the above-described method for producing a copper-manganese-based layered oxide material, that is, the method for producing a copper-manganese-based layered oxide material according to an embodiment of the present invention.
The preparation method of the copper-manganese-based layered oxide material comprises the following steps:
s1, weighing a sodium source, a copper source, a manganese source and an M metal source in proportion, wherein M in the M metal source is one or more of alkali metal and alkaline earth metal elements.
That is, first, various starting materials were weighed.
The sodium source is selected from one or more of sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, sodium nitrate, sodium acetate, sodium oxalate and sodium citrate;
the copper source, the manganese source and the M metal source are respectively selected from one or more of oxides, chlorides, nitrates, sulfates, carbonates, acetates, oxalates and citrates of all metals.
More specifically, as the copper source, for example, one or more of copper oxide (in the present invention, a generic name of copper oxide and cuprous oxide), copper chloride, copper nitrate, copper sulfate, copper carbonate, copper acetate, copper oxalate, copper citrate, and the like can be selected.
Similarly, as the manganese source, for example, one or more of manganese oxide (in the present invention, a general term of manganese monoxide and manganese dioxide), manganese chloride, manganese nitrate, manganese sulfate, manganese carbonate, manganese acetate, manganese oxalate, manganese citrate, and the like can be used.
The source of M metal may be selected from one or more of oxides, chlorides, nitrates, sulfates, carbonates, acetates, oxalates, citrates of alkali metals, and oxides, chlorides, nitrates, sulfates, carbonates, acetates, oxalates, citrates of alkaline earth metals.
The various raw materials can be appropriately selected according to a specific processing method (specifically, step S2 to be described later). The specific details will be further described later in conjunction with step S2.
Further, in some embodiments of the invention, the sodium source is used in an amount of 100 to 108wt% of the stoichiometric amount based on the sodium therein. That is, a slight excess of Na was used. This is because, considering that the Na source is partially lost during the alloying process, a slight excess amount of the Na source may be appropriately added in order to achieve a predetermined chemical composition. In addition, a slight excess of the sodium source helps to promote the formation of a stable P3 phase.
And S2, fully mixing the sodium source, the copper source, the manganese source and the M metal source to obtain precursor powder.
That is, the starting materials were weighed and then sufficiently mixed to obtain a precursor powder for producing a target copper-manganese-based layered oxide material.
In some embodiments of the present invention, the precursor powder may be obtained by treating each raw material by a dry mixing method, a spray drying method, a sol-gel method, or a coprecipitation method, for example.
Next, each processing method will be described.
(1) Dry mixing process
In the dry mixing method, the raw material powders are dry-mixed as they are without adding a solvent or a dispersion liquid thereto, and are dispersed by, for example, a ball mill method or a planetary mill to obtain a precursor powder.
For dry mixing treatment, the sodium source may be one or more selected from sodium carbonate, sodium acetate, sodium bicarbonate, sodium oxalate, or sodium citrate; as the copper source, for example, one or more of oxides, copper chloride, copper nitrate, copper sulfate, copper carbonate and the like can be used; the manganese source may be, for example, one or more of manganese oxide (which is a generic term for manganese monoxide and manganese dioxide in the present invention), manganese chloride, manganese nitrate, manganese sulfate, and manganese carbonate; the M metal source may be one or more selected from alkali metal oxides, chlorides, nitrates, sulfates, carbonates, and alkaline earth metal oxides, chlorides, nitrates, sulfates, and carbonates.
Specifically, the weighed powder and grinding balls are put into a ball milling tank for ball milling.
Wherein the mass ratio of the ball-milling mixed powder to the grinding balls is (1-50): 1. preferably, the powder-to-ball ratio is 3. By selecting a proper powder-ball ratio, the mixing effect can be improved, and sufficient surface energy is given to the powder in the ball milling process, so that the subsequent solid-phase sintering reaction is facilitated to be promoted.
The rotation speed is, for example, 200 to 1000rpm, preferably 400rpm. Appropriate rotation speeds may improve mixing efficiency.
The ball milling time is, for example, 1 to 24 hours, preferably 6 hours. The proper ball milling time can ensure the full mixing and improve the production efficiency.
Wherein the particle size of the precursor powder is 1-15 μm, preferably 1-10 μm. If the powder is too coarse, the powder is not beneficial to forming the anode active material powder by subsequent solid-phase sintering, and if the powder is too fine, the powder is easy to agglomerate, thereby affecting the uniformity.
(2) Spray drying method
That is, each raw material powder is dispersed in a dispersion to form a uniform slurry, and thereafter the slurry is subjected to spray drying to form a precursor powder.
Wherein, during the process of forming the slurry, for example, wet ball milling can be combined, so that the slurry is more stable and is more uniformly dispersed.
Further, in the wet ball milling, a certain dispersant such as PAA (polyacrylic acid), PMAA (polymethacrylic acid), and the like may also be incorporated.
Among them, water, ethanol, and the like can be used as the dispersion liquid. The use of ethanol for dispersion is preferred because it is less likely to cause re-agglomeration during the spray drying process.
Further, for the spray drying method, there is no particular requirement for each powder, and all of the above-mentioned raw material powders can be arbitrarily selected.
(3) Sol gel process
The sol-gel method is a method in which each raw material powder is first made into a sol in a solvent, then evaporated to dryness to form a precursor gel, and finally the precursor gel is degreased by heating to obtain a precursor powder.
Specifically, for example, each raw material powder may be dispersed in water or ethanol to form a precursor solution; adding appropriate amount of chelating agent such as citric acid, stirring at 50-100 deg.C, and evaporating the dispersion (i.e. water or ethanol) to obtain precursor gel; and finally, presintering for 1-4 hours at the temperature of 200-500 ℃ to obtain precursor powder.
Among them, for the sol-gel method, organic salts having a relatively larger molecular weight are preferable in order to be more stable in the process of forming a gel, thereby enabling better dispersion uniformity. Specifically, for example, the sodium source may be one or more selected from sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, sodium oxalate, or sodium citrate; copper source, such as copper acetate, copper oxalate, citric acid copper or more; as the manganese source, similarly, for example, one or more of manganese acetate, manganese oxalate, manganese citrate, and the like; the metal source of M can be selected from one or more of acetate, oxalate and citrate of alkali metal and acetate, oxalate and citrate of alkaline earth metal.
(4) Coprecipitation method
The coprecipitation method is a method in which each raw powder except a sodium source is dissolved in a solvent, acetone is coprecipitated by adjusting the pH of the solution, and then the solution is mixed with the sodium source (for example, dry ball milling, etc.), thereby obtaining a precursor powder.
Specifically, for example, each raw material powder is dissolved in water to form a solution having a predetermined concentration; then, slowly dripping the solution into alkaline aqueous solution with certain concentration and pH value, such as ammonia water, by a peristaltic pump to generate coprecipitate; and then washing the coprecipitate with water, drying, and fully mixing with sodium source powder to obtain precursor powder.
Among them, for the sol-gel method, the sodium source is not limited, and any of the above-mentioned sodium sources can be appropriately selected. The other raw materials are preferably highly soluble, and specifically, the copper source may be one or more selected from copper chloride, copper nitrate, copper sulfate, and the like; the manganese source can be one or more of manganese chloride, manganese nitrate and manganese sulfate; the M metal source may be one or more of chlorides, nitrates, sulfates, carbonates of alkali metals, chlorides, nitrates, sulfates of alkaline earth metals, and the like.
And S3, sintering the precursor powder at the sintering temperature of 550-850 ℃ for 10-15h to obtain the copper-manganese-based layered oxide material.
That is, it is necessary to mix and obtain a precursor powder, and the precursor powder is subjected to solid-phase sintering to cause a solid-phase reaction, thereby producing a positive electrode active material that can be used as a sodium ion battery.
Wherein, in order to obtain stable P3 phase, the heating rate is preferably 3-5 ℃/min during sintering, and the sintering temperature is preferably 700-800 ℃.
The proper temperature rise rate is beneficial to the full release of the by-products generated by the thermal decomposition reaction of the precursor powder, and the proper sintering temperature and the proper heat preservation time are beneficial to controlling the crystalline phase and being suitable for the growth of the crystal grains without abnormal growth.
In addition, in order to facilitate further forming a slurry with good dispersibility to be coated on the positive electrode current collector, the preparation method preferably further comprises the following steps:
and S4, grinding and sieving the sintered powder to obtain copper-manganese based layered oxide material powder.
Thus, the copper-manganese-based layered oxide material powder according to the present invention can be prepared.
Next, a positive electrode obtained using the above copper-manganese-based layered oxide material is described.
The positive electrode according to an embodiment of the present invention includes:
a positive current collector;
the positive electrode active material layer is arranged on the surface of the positive electrode current collector and contains the copper-manganese-based layered oxide material in any one of the embodiments.
Further, the positive electrode active material layer further contains a conductive agent and a binder. Among them, the conductive agent can improve its conductivity, and the binder helps to improve the bonding strength between the positive active material layer and the positive current collector.
Specifically, the conductive agent is selected from any one or more of conductive carbon black, conductive graphite, carbon nanotubes, carbon fibers and graphene.
In addition, the binder is any one or more of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), sodium Alginate (SA), sodium carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) and Styrene Butadiene Rubber (SBR).
One or more of PVDF, PTFE, sodium alginate, CMC and SBR are selected as the binder, so that the interface contact performance and the battery performance of the positive active material layer and the positive current collector can be further improved.
Specifically, PVDF has a high dielectric constant, good chemical stability and temperature characteristics, and has a positive effect of improving the adhesion between the positive active material layer and the positive current collector.
PTFE is a high molecular chemical material containing polytetrafluoroethylene. Polytetrafluoroethylene is produced by radical polymerization of tetrafluoroethylene. The polytetrafluoroethylene PTFE has the advantages of high temperature resistance (the working temperature is up to 250 ℃), low temperature resistance (5 percent of elongation can be kept even if the temperature is reduced to-196 ℃), corrosion resistance (inertia to most chemicals and solvents, strong acid and alkali resistance, water and various organic solvents resistance), and the like.
Sodium Alginate (SA) was used as a binder to form metal ion-coordinated sodium alginate on the surface of metal fluoride particles during electrode fabrication, successfully inhibiting dissolution into the layered oxide material. Namely, the copper-manganese-based layered oxide can be crosslinked with the SA adhesive in situ to form a conformal complex layer on the surface of the copper-manganese-based layered oxide particles, so that the dissolution of metal ions in the copper-manganese-based layered oxide in electrolyte can be effectively inhibited, and the reversibility of the anode is enhanced.
CMC is widely used as a binder of a negative electrode material of an aqueous system, and can obtain larger battery capacity, improve the cycle life of the battery and reduce the internal resistance of the battery.
The SBR binder has high binding strength, good mechanical stability and operability, is used as a binder in the battery industry, and has good binding effect and stable quality.
With respect to the method of providing the positive electrode active material layer on the surface of the positive electrode collector, there is no particular limitation, and for example, may include:
the copper-manganese-based layered oxide material may be prepared by dispersing 60 to 100 parts by mass, 0 to 10 parts by mass of a conductive agent, and 0 to 10 parts by mass of a binder in a solvent (for example, water, methanol, ethanol, or the like) to form a positive electrode slurry, and then coating the positive electrode slurry on the surface of a positive electrode current collector.
The positive electrode obtained as described above can be used to form a sodium ion battery.
The preparation of the copper-manganese-based layered oxide material, the positive electrode, and the sodium ion battery according to the present invention are further illustrated by examples below.
