Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of lithium electrode preparation, in particular to a lithium ion battery with Li 3 N artificial SEI film lithium electrode and its preparation method and application.
Background
The practical capacity of the existing lithium ion battery taking graphite as a negative electrode is saturated and approaches to the theoretical limit (372 mAh g) -1 ) Greatly limits the development of the electric energy storage industry, and makes it easy to find the next-generation negative electrode material with high specific capacity and high cycle stability. Among the promising candidate materials, lithium metal materials have low density (0.59 g cm) due to their lowest electrochemical potential (-3.04V vs. standard hydrogen electrode) -3 ) And an ultra-high theoretical capacity (3860 mAh g -1 ) Is outstanding. However, lithium metal has various problems such as accumulation of Solid Electrolyte Interface (SEI), growth of lithium dendrite, and huge volume change in the cycling process of the lithium metal as a negative electrode, so that the coulomb efficiency of the Lithium Metal Battery (LMB) is reduced, the actual capacity of the negative electrode is reduced, and safety accidents such as battery short circuit and even explosion caused by the penetration of the lithium dendrite growth through a diaphragm are reduced, thereby impeding the commercialization process of the Lithium Metal Battery (LMB).
In view of the above problems, there are a number of improvement strategies: firstly, constructing a three-dimensional main body; secondly, the solid electrolyte replaces the organic electrolyte; thirdly, the SEI film is constructed on the surface of lithium metal. The three-dimensional main body has high mass occupation, so that the energy density of the lithium metal anode can be greatly sacrificed, and even is lower than that of graphite used as the anode; compared with organic electrolyte, the solid electrolyte has the advantages that the effective contact area between the solid electrolyte and the electrode is reduced, the interface resistance is high, and the transmission performance of lithium ions is greatly reduced; in contrast, designing an SEI film with higher ionic conductivity and high interfacial energy is the most effective improvement strategy, lithium nitride (Li 3 N) because of its high lithium ion conductivity (2.3X10) -3 S cm -1 ) The advantages of high Young's modulus, stability to electrochemical window of lithium metal, low solubility in electrolyte and the like are important points of current research. At present Li 3 The preparation method of the N artificial SEI film mainly comprises the following steps: (1) electrolyte modification: adding nitrate such as (LiNO) to the electrolyte 3 ) To form Li 3 N, the generated SEI film is thinner, the ion conductivity is high,however, the organic electrolyte is volatile, has high toxicity and LiNO 3 The nitrate belongs to dangerous chemicals, is dangerous and forms Li 3 The mechanical properties of the N film are poor; (2) Rolling method: to be commercialized Li 3 N powder is ground and then put on Li foil and rolled, which causes non-uniform thickness of the lithium foil and Li is obtained 3 N artificial SEI film has poor integrity and uniformity; (3) high temperature melting method: exposing molten Li in a nitrogen glove box, or using g-C 3 N 4 And reacting with molten lithium metal at high temperature to obtain Li 3 N, li formed by the method 3 N thickness is uncontrollable, uniformity is poor, operation is inconvenient in a glove box, and high temperature is easy to cause damage of rubber gloves, so that economic loss is caused.
