Description

Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of carbon materials, in particular to a lignin-based porous carbon material, a preparation method and application thereof and a lithium ion energy storage device.
Background
Lignin is one of the main organic components of plants, the content of which in lignocellulosic biomass is next to cellulose. In industrial processes lignin is discarded as a by-product, such as black liquor from paper mills and residues from the ethanol fermentation industry. Lignin molecules are mainly composed of three aromatic compounds, and the molecules have a high-content benzene ring structure, so that the lignin molecules are ideal carbon material precursors. Therefore, the preparation of the lignin-based carbon material is an effective way for the high-value utilization of lignin.
The porous carbon is widely applied to the fields of energy storage, environmental purification and the like due to the characteristics of high specific surface area, high chemical stability and the like. The porous carbon prepared from biomass such as lignin is generally obtained by directly carrying out pyrolysis activation (physical activation or chemical activation) on raw materials, and the prepared lignin-based porous carbon has higher specific surface area. However, in practice, because of the high pyrolysis reaction activity of lignin and the existence of inorganic impurities in industrial lignin, severe pyrolysis and activation reactions easily damage the pore structure of porous carbon, and finally cause the reduction of the specific surface area and the deterioration of the pore structure of lignin-based porous carbon materials, thereby damaging the performance of lignin-based porous carbon materials in various application fields.

mixing positive electrode active materials (lignin-based porous carbon obtained in examples 1 to 3 and comparative example), a conductive agent (conductive carbon black, super C45), a binder (polyvinylidene fluoride, PVDF) and a solvent (N-methylpyrrolidone, NMP) to obtain positive electrode slurry (wherein the mass ratio of positive electrode active materials, conductive agent and binder is 8:1:1); coating positive electrode slurry on a current collector (carbon-coated aluminum foil), drying in a blast drying oven at 80 ℃ for 12 hours, transferring to a vacuum drying oven, and drying at 60 ℃ for 12 hours; cutting the dried positive pole piece into a circular piece with the diameter of 11mm, standing for 10s under the pressure of 15MPa by using a hydraulic press, taking out, weighing, and transferring into a glove box protected by argon atmosphere for later use.
The lithium metal plate (diameter 15.6mm, thickness 450 μm) was used as the negative electrode, and the above positive electrode plate, separator (Celgard 2400) and electrolyte (ethylene carbonate (EC), dimethyl carbonate (DMC) and diethyl carbonate (DEC) were mixed in a volume ratio of 1:1:1, and 1mol/L LiPF was added 6 As an additive) are assembled together into a CR2032 type button cell; and placing the assembled button cell on a Xinwei charge-discharge tester for constant-current charge-discharge test, wherein the voltage window is 2.0-4.2V, and a series of current densities are set for testing the multiplying power performance.
FIG. 6 is a graph showing the rate performance of half cells of lithium ion capacitors assembled using the lignin-based porous carbons obtained in examples 1 to 3 and comparative example 1 as positive electrode active materials, wherein cells using PDLPC-3 were tested at current densities of 0.5A/g, 1A/g, 2A/g, 3A/g, 5A/g and 8A/g, and cells using other lignin-based porous carbons were tested at current densities of 0.5A/g, 1A/g, 2A/g, 3A/g, 5A/g and 10A/g. As can be seen from fig. 6, the lignin-based porous carbon prepared after the pre-carbonization of the example shows higher specific discharge capacity and better rate performance at different current densities than the lignin-based porous carbon prepared without the pre-carbonization of comparative example 1, and specific performance data are shown in table 1:
