Comparative example 4 was tested on sodium source and Ni 0.4 Fe 0.2 Mn 0.4 (OH) 2 The porosity of the mixed particles was 2.7%, and the compressive strength of the calcined particles was 81.3MPa.
Ni obtained in step 1) of example 1 was subjected to a field emission Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) (JSM-7800F) 0.4 Fe 0.2 Mn 0.4 (OH) 2 Particles obtained by crushing the precursor slurry obtained in the step 3) and NaNi obtained in the step 4) 0.4 Fe 0.2 Mn 0.4 O 2 The particles and surface morphology of the layered oxide were examined as shown in fig. 1 to 4. It can be seen that Ni obtained in example 1 0.4 Fe 0.2 Mn 0.4 (OH) 2 The porous structure of the spheroid secondary particles is characterized in that the morphology of the primary particles is flaky, the pores among the primary particles are covered after being filled by a sodium source and a thickener, and the spheroid with a polycrystalline structure is obtained after calcination, so that the particle size distribution is uniform.
For NaNi prepared in comparative example 1 0.4 Fe 0.2 Mn 0.4 O 2 SEM characterization is carried out on the particle surfaces of the layered oxide, and as shown in fig. 6, the secondary particles have no specific morphology, and the particle structure collapses, which is detrimental to the processing performance of the material.
NaNi obtained in example 1 and comparative example 1 was subjected to XRD diffractometer (Panalytical X' PERT PRO MPD, netherlands) 0.4 Fe 0.2 Mn 0.4 O 2 The phase structure of the layered oxide cathode material was examined, and as shown in fig. 5 and 7, the XRD pattern of the material prepared in example 1 showed that it had higher crystallinity, no impurity phase, and the same crystal form as the target product, whereas the XRD pattern of the material prepared in comparative example 1 had poor crystallinity and had a plurality of impurity phases.
The nickel-iron-manganese layered oxides prepared in examples 1 to 4 and comparative examples 1 to 4 were subjected to sodium content detection using a German Stek ICP-OES plasma emission spectrometer GREEN, and the loss amount of sodium was obtained, and the results are shown in Table 1.
Table 1 sodium loss rates for examples and comparative examples
Category(s) Sodium content/Atom% Sodium loss rate/%
Example 1 25.03 0.22%
Example 2 25.12 0.13%
Example 3 24.99 0.26%
Example 4 25.06 0.19%
Comparative example 1 23.04 2.21%
Comparative example 2 23.47 1.78%
Comparative example 3 24.67 0.58%
Comparative example 4 26.06 0.19%
As can be seen from Table 1, the material calcined by the technical scheme of the invention has relatively higher sodium content, can reduce the loss of sodium element, and is compared with the material calcined by solidMixing the sodium source and the precursor Ni x Fe y Mn z (OH) 2 The mixing can better optimize the proportioning and the calcining process.
The nickel-iron-manganese layered oxides prepared in examples 1-4 and comparative examples 1-4 are used as positive electrode materials of sodium ion batteries, are respectively mixed with SP and PVDF in a dry room with humidity less than 10% according to a mass ratio of 85:10:5, homogenized, coated on an aluminum foil current collector with solid content of 45%, vacuum baked at 110 ℃ for 8 hours, and rolled and punched to prepare positive electrode plates of sodium ion batteries. The button half cell is assembled in a glove box filled with argon, a counter electrode is a metal sodium sheet, a used diaphragm is a PE diaphragm, and an electrolyte is NaPF of 1mol/L 6 EC/DMC (volume ratio 1:1). The button cell test equipment was a commercial LAND cell test system from blue electric electronics Inc. of Wuhan, at a test temperature of 25 ℃. The charge and discharge test is carried out on the button cell, the 0.1C capacity test flow is that the 0.1C constant current and constant voltage charge is carried out to 4.0V, the 0.1C constant current and constant voltage discharge is carried out to 2.0V, the first charge and discharge curve of the material is measured, the 1C cycle test flow is that the 1C constant current and constant voltage charge is carried out to 4.0V, the 1C constant current and constant voltage charge is carried out to 2.0V, and the cycle is carried out for 100 times, thus obtaining the cycle life curve. The results of the 0.1C capacity test and the 1C cycle 100 capacity retention test are shown in table 2, and the 1C cycle test life curve of the positive electrode material prepared in example 1 is shown in fig. 7.
Table 2 results of capacity test and cyclic capacity retention test of examples and comparative examples
Figure BDA0004123084570000101
As can be seen from Table 2, the positive electrode material of the sodium ion battery prepared by the technical scheme of the invention has higher specific capacity and cycle capacity retention rate. From the results of morphology and XRD characterization of example 1 and comparative example, the compressive strength of the particles after calcination of comparative example 1 was significantly reduced, the structure collapsed, the crystallinity was poor, and a plurality of impurity phases appeared, so that the electrochemical properties thereof were significantly reduced. Comparative example 2 the porosity of the particles after drying the precursor slurry was slightly reduced from the precursor particles without introducing a thickener, and more sodium remained on the surface of the material after calcination without entering the interior of the crystal, forming an impurity phase. The slurry in comparative example 3 had a reduced solids content to 20% and a low viscosity resulted in settling of the precursor during drying of the slurry and uneven sodium distribution on the surface of the precursor, again forming a more impurity phase. Comparative example 4 sodium source was added in excess and calcined to form residual alkali, resulting in poor processability of the material and poor cycling stability of the late battery.
The foregoing is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and it should be noted that modifications and adaptations to those skilled in the art may be made without departing from the principles of the present invention, which are intended to be comprehended within the scope of the present invention.
