Description

Sodium ion battery anode material precursor and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of sodium ion batteries, and relates to a precursor of a positive electrode material of a sodium ion battery, and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Lithium, sodium and potassium are similar to alkali metal elements belonging to group IA of the periodic table of elements in physical and chemical properties, and can be theoretically used as metal ion carriers of secondary batteries. Among them, lithium has a smaller ionic radius, a higher standard potential, and a much higher specific capacity than sodium and potassium, and thus has been used earlier and more widely in secondary batteries. However, the global reserve of lithium resources is limited, the demand of batteries is greatly increased along with the development of new energy automobiles, the bottleneck of the resource end is gradually revealed, and the large-scale application of lithium ion batteries is limited by higher cost.
Sodium resources are very abundant, crust abundance is 2.64%, which is 440 times of lithium resources, and sodium resources are widely distributed and are simple to refine. The role of sodium as a substitute for lithium has emerged and has gained increasing attention in the battery field. Through development in recent years, the comprehensive performance and demonstration application of the sodium ion battery achieve remarkable effects, the sodium ion battery as a beneficial supplement of the lithium ion battery is greatly developed in the fields of large-scale energy storage and miniature electric vehicles, and an electrode material with high specific energy is still a target required by people for cumin.
The key technology of the sodium ion battery is mainly material technology, and the key of the battery with long service life is to develop a material with high stability. Because of the difference of ion characteristics, it is not suitable to directly change lithium in the electrode material of the lithium ion battery into sodium, so finding an electrode material suitable for the sodium ion battery is a key to the practical realization of the lithium ion battery.
In recent decades, cathode materials, which are one of the key components of sodium ion batteries, such as layered oxides, polyanion-based compounds, prussian blue-based compounds, organic compounds, and the like, have been widely studied. Sodium ion layered transition metal oxide (Na x TMO 2 TM is generally transition metal, x is less than or equal to 1), is similar to a lithium ion layered oxide successfully applied in commercialization, has the advantages of higher specific capacity, simple preparation, high compaction density, adjustable voltage range and the like, and is greatly studied. However, when the sodium ion layered oxide positive electrode material realizes more reversible extraction/intercalation of sodium ions, the system faces complex structural evolution, and the capacity retention rate in the long-cycle process is seriously affected.
Although doping or replacing transition metal sites can significantly inhibit phase transition, inhibit transition metal ion migration, and improve the chemical and electrochemical stability of the sodium-free material, the content of the redox couple of the system is inevitably reduced, thereby affecting the energy density of the system, and the content of doped ions is too small to stabilize the structure of the layered oxide material. In addition, K can be doped with sodium ion + 、Mg 2+ 、Ca 2+ Or Zn 2+ The method has the advantages that the method plays a role of a strut, thereby effectively relieving the electrostatic repulsive force between the sodium layers O-O and inhibiting the occurrence of phase transition, but the doping amount is difficult to be large, and the energy density of the system is also sacrificed.
The coating modification has many applications and remarkable effects in lithium ion layered oxide cathode materials, but has little research in sodium-electric layered oxides. Mainly because the air and water stability of the sodium ion layered oxide is poor, the aqueous solution coating method commonly used in lithium batteries is not applicable to sodium ion batteries any more, and the preparation cost of electrode materials can be obviously increased due to the complex operation flow.
Therefore, development of a coating method which is simple and effective and can improve the cycle performance of the sodium-electricity layered oxide material under the condition of higher specific capacity is imperative.
