Description

Skeleton composite material, preparation method thereof, negative plate and battery
Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of new energy, in particular to a skeleton composite material and a preparation method thereof, a negative plate and a battery.
Background
Along with the development of lithium ion battery technology, a lithium ion battery system which takes lithium iron phosphate and ternary materials as an anode and takes artificial graphite and natural graphite as a cathode is formed, but the energy density can only reach 300wh/kg at most, and the breakthrough of 350wh/kg is difficult to continue to be improved. Lithium metal is considered the final negative electrode material for high density electrochemical energy storage technology due to its ultra-high specific capacity (3860 mAh/g), lowest redox potential (-3.04V (vs. she)). In addition, since lithium metal negative electrodes themselves contain lithium, many positive electrodes that do not contain lithium, such as sulfur, oxygen, etc., can be used, enabling lithium metal batteries to achieve higher energy densities (> 500 Wh/kg).
However, the development of metallic lithium negative electrodes has not been widely used so far, and many problems remain to be solved. On the one hand, lithium dendrites are easy to generate due to uneven deposition of lithium ions on the surface of metal lithium, so that the positive electrode and the negative electrode are short-circuited due to the fact that the separator is pierced. In addition, lithium dendrites have poor mechanical stability and may be separated from the metallic lithium matrix during cycling, forming "dead lithium" which results in loss of electrochemically active lithium and affects cycling efficiency. On the other hand, due to the volume expansion effect of the metal lithium, the generated stress causes continuous rupture and regeneration of the SEI film on the surface of the electrode, and the metal lithium is in direct contact with the electrolyte, so that the electrolyte and the metal lithium in the battery are continuously consumed, meanwhile, the structure of the negative electrode is unstable, and the cycle performance is further reduced.
The existing lithium metal negative electrode is mainly divided into a plurality of categories such as directly adopting metal lithium foil, three-dimensional current collector to load lithium, lithium metal and other elements to prepare alloy composite materials, and the three-dimensional current collector and the composite materials have potential in order to avoid volume change and continuous rupture/generation of SEI films in the circulation process from the practical application point of view.
Three-dimensional current collection is embodied by mainly adopting a metal base, a carbon base and an organic base. The high porosity of the three-dimensional current collector can provide a larger lithium storage space, relieve the volume expansion effect in the process of depositing/dissolving metallic lithium, reduce the generation of lithium dendrites and inhibit the growth of the lithium dendrites. However, for the metal-based current collector, the energy density of the anode can be greatly reduced because of the higher density of the metal base, and the advantage of high energy density brought by the metal lithium anode is weakened. Although the density of the carbon-based material is smaller, the carbon material is generally electrochemically active, lithium intercalation and deintercalation can occur in the circulation, SEI can be formed, the circulation coulomb efficiency of the lithium metal cathode is reduced, and the service life of the battery is influenced. The general organic matrix material is a membranous porous current collector material, and the conductive agent and the conductive ion material added in the modification process of the membranous porous current collector material are not only distributed in the pore canal of the current collector, but also distributed on the surface of the organic matrix film, so that metal lithium can be deposited in the pore and also deposited on the surface, and the surface metal lithium and electrolyte can continuously react to generate dead lithium and dendrite, thereby influencing the cycle life of the battery.

(2) Adding 5g of the polymer core microsphere into 100 mL of 0.5 mol/L formaldehyde, adding 0.05g of cetyltrimethylammonium chloride as a surfactant, soaking for 2 h, performing suction filtration, adding the suction filtration product into 100 mL of 3mol/L urea solution, stirring, adding hydrochloric acid to adjust the pH to about 2, reacting for 2 h, performing suction filtration, washing to be neutral, and finally washing and drying to obtain the porous polymer microsphere of comparative example 3.
The skeleton composite material does not contain conductive substances, and a conductive agent needs to be added during coating.
Preparing a lithium battery:
button type half cell: coating the obtained skeleton material with conductive agent and binder LA133 on copper foil, slicing, and assembling half cell with metal lithium foil with electrolyte of 1.0M LiPF 6 in EC:DMC:EMC=1:1:1Vol%。
Deposition at 0.1C of 4mAh/cm 2 And testing the expansion rate of the pole piece by using metal lithium.
Discharging at 0.1C, depositing 4mAh/cm 2 Metallic lithium was then charged to 1.5V and tested for first week coulombic efficiency.
Comparative example 4
The skeleton composite material obtained in comparative example 1 is used as a negative electrode material to prepare an assembled full battery, and the specific steps are as follows:
(1) Coating the obtained skeleton composite material with a conductive agent and an adhesive LA133 on a copper foil, and drying;
(2) Compounding the lithium metal pole piece with metal lithium through mechanical rolling;
(3) The whole cell was sliced and assembled with lithium iron phosphate.
Table 1 shows the comparison of the semi-battery performances of examples 1-2, examples 4-9 and comparative examples 1-2, and shows that the expansion rate of the pole pieces of examples 1-2 and examples 4-9 is much lower than that of comparative examples 1 and 2, because the matrix composite material is distributed from the inside to the surface of the microsphere from a large amount to a small amount, the electric conductive agent is distributed differently, so that the porous polymer microsphere has larger internal charge density and small external charge density, the metal lithium is preferentially deposited in the pores inside the microsphere, the volume expansion of the metal lithium deposition is reduced, the volume expansion effect after the lithium metal deposition can be effectively relieved, excessive contact between the metal lithium and the electrolyte is avoided, and the generation of SEI and dead lithium is reduced.
And the first-week coulomb efficiency of examples 1-2 and examples 4-9 is much higher than that of comparative examples 1 and 2, because dendrites of the negative electrode materials in comparative examples 1 and 2 are largely generated, a large amount of dead lithium is formed in the cycle, resulting in loss of active lithium, and lowering the first-week coulomb efficiency of the battery; in the embodiment, lithium metal is deposited in pores inside the polymer, lithium dendrites are not formed to generate dead lithium, and contact with electrolyte is isolated to a certain extent, so that the coulomb efficiency is higher.
Meanwhile, the skeleton composite material has higher porosity and can improve the wettability of electrolyte; the higher specific surface area can provide more reaction sites, so that the charge and discharge efficiency of the battery under high current is enhanced, and the polarization is reduced.
Table 1 comparison of half cell performance of examples and comparative examples
SEM pictures of the pole piece surfaces after depositing the metallic lithium in comparative example 1 and example 1 are shown in fig. 7 and 8, respectively, and from the characterization results, it can be seen that a great amount of lithium dendrites are generated on the pole piece surfaces of the material in comparative example 1, because the conductivity of the outer layer of the microsphere is consistent with that of the inner layer, and the lithium metal does not have a driving force for inward deposition, so that the lithium metal grows on the surfaces of the microsphere to generate dendritic lithium metal; in example 1, since lithium metal was induced to deposit into the microsphere, dendrites were hardly observed on the surface of the electrode sheet, and the effect of suppressing dendrite generation was exhibited.
The performance of the full cells of example 3 and comparative example 4 is shown in fig. 9 and 10, respectively, and it can be seen from fig. 9 and 10 that, after the full cells are assembled, the cell of example 3 can stably cycle for more than 500 cycles at a rate of 0.5C, the capacity retention rate reaches 80%, and the cycle life is far longer than that of the full cell assembled from the material of comparative example 4.
