Description

Hard carbon material, preparation method thereof, negative electrode material and alkali metal ion battery
Technical Field

Background
The development of new energy technology has been attracting attention, in which electrochemical energy storage is a hot spot of research, so that alkali metal ion batteries have been widely studied. The lithium ion battery is commercialized successfully, and the technology is mature, but the lithium ion battery is limited by the problems of low lithium resource content, uneven distribution and the like, so that the cost of the lithium ion battery is increased; the sodium ion battery and the potassium ion battery are considered as complementers of the lithium ion battery, and have excellent application prospects in the energy storage field. Currently, the negative electrode material of the alkali metal ion battery is mainly a carbon-based material, such as a graphite material, but the structural stability of graphite is poor, the compatibility with electrolyte is poor, the rate performance is poor, and the negative electrode material also shows low sodium storage capacity in the sodium ion battery. Therefore, it is expected to prepare a novel anode material having high specific capacity, excellent rate performance and long cycle life. The hard carbon material belongs to non-graphitized carbon, graphite microcrystals in the hard carbon material are arranged randomly and disordered, the interlayer spacing is larger than that of graphite, and a cavity structure is formed, so that the intercalation and deintercalation of alkaline ions are facilitated. Therefore, the hard carbon material is used as a negative electrode of an alkali metal ion battery, and has high specific capacity, excellent rate performance and cycle stability.
At present, the sources of precursors of hard carbon materials are mainly classified into biomass, high molecular species, resins, petrochemical byproducts and coal-based carbon materials. The high molecular precursor is mainly extracted from biomass to obtain chemical products including glucose, sucrose, starch, cellulose, lignin and the like, and has the defects of poor conductive performance and the like, is not beneficial to the transmission of electrons, and is not suitable for preparing hard carbon materials; the resin precursor mainly comprises phenolic resin, polyaniline, polyacrylonitrile and the like, has higher carbon yield, and the prepared hard carbon material has stable structure, but organic solvents are needed in the preparation process of the hard carbon, so that the difficulty of the crosslinking reaction is effectively controlled; the petrochemical byproducts and coal-based materials are mainly coal, asphalt, petroleum coke and the like, and have the advantages of low cost, high carbon yield and the like, but graphitization is easy to occur in the high-temperature carbonization process, so that a highly ordered carbon layer structure is formed, and sodium ion storage is not facilitated; the biomass precursors are mainly agricultural and forestry plant wastes such as lotus leaves, peanut shells, shaddock peels and the like, and the hard carbon materials prepared by taking the biomass precursors as raw materials can greatly reduce the cost. Therefore, it is urgently required to develop a biomass raw material with low cost to prepare a hard carbon material, and use the hard carbon material as a negative electrode material of an alkali metal ion battery to improve the specific capacity and cycle performance of the battery.

Characterization testing of XRD was performed on the hard carbon materials prepared in example 1 and comparative examples 1 to 4, and it was found that the XRD patterns showed distinct hard carbon peaks, so that the products prepared in example 1 and comparative examples 1 to 4 were both hard carbon materials. Fig. 2 shows the XRD spectrum of the hard carbon material prepared in comparative example 1, and fig. 3 shows the XRD spectrum of the hard carbon material prepared in comparative example 4. Although the high-temperature hard carbonization treatment was not performed in comparative example 4, and only the low-temperature pre-carbonization treatment and the medium-temperature activation treatment were performed, the peaks of hard carbon were still approximately seen from the XRD image of fig. 3. Further, the interlayer spacing of the hard carbon material prepared in comparative example 1 was 0.362nm, which is 0.39nm, as compared with the interlayer spacing of the hard carbon material of example 1, indicating that the interlayer spacing of the material was also affected by the activation treatment and the acid washing treatment, and the interlayer spacing could be increased.
Fig. 5 is an SEM image of the hard carbon material prepared in comparative example 4. Comparing the micro-morphology of the hard carbon material of example 1 of fig. 5 with that of fig. 4, it is evident that the two hard carbon materials are not the same size. In particular, the hard carbon material prepared in example 1 had spherical particles therein, whereas comparative example 4 was not subjected to the high-temperature hard-carbonization treatment, wherein the spherical particles were significantly reduced as compared with the spherical particles in example 1, probably because the temperature of the hard-carbonization treatment was higher, so that a part of the material was converted into spherical shapes.
Comparing the results of the electrochemical performance tests of the sodium ion batteries of example 2 and comparative examples 1 to 4 above, it can be presumed that: the pre-carbonization treatment can remove volatile matters and moisture in the arundo donax raw material, so that the strength of the carbon material is improved, and preliminary pores are formed in the carbon material particles; the alkalization treatment can remove the residual silicon dioxide impurities in the carbon material, so as to realize the porous structure of the carbon material; the purpose of acid washing or water washing is to remove residual alkaline solute and magnetic metal impurities in the carbon material; the high-temperature hard carbonization treatment aims to convert the carbon material into a hard carbon material, regulate and control the pore structure of the hard carbon material and obtain a structure with abundant closed pores. The higher the carbonization temperature is, the slower the heating rate is, the enough energy and time are ensured, the rearrangement of the carbon layer of the hard carbon material is realized, the ordering of the hard carbon structure is increased, the pores and defects are reduced, and the first coulomb efficiency and the cycling stability of the hard carbon cathode are improved. Therefore, the technical scheme in the embodiment of the application has the advantages that after the pre-carbonization treatment, the alkalization and medium-temperature activation treatment and the high-temperature hard carbonization treatment, the prepared hard carbon material has higher specific capacity and first coulombic efficiency in the sodium ion battery.
As can be seen from the analysis, the application prepares the arundo donax-based hard carbon material by the processes of cleaning, coarse crushing, low-temperature pre-carbonization, medium-temperature activation, high Wen Yingtan treatment, fine crushing, sieving, demagnetizing, mixing and the like, and can be used as the cathode material of an alkali metal ion battery; the application has the advantages of wide sources of raw materials, simplicity, easy acquisition, low cost and simple preparation method and process, and is suitable for industrial production.
