Description

Structure and method for protecting lithium metal anode material and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium batteries, and particularly relates to a structure and a method for protecting a lithium metal negative electrode material, an application of the structure and the method, the lithium metal negative electrode material and a lithium metal battery.
Background
Modern society is highly dependent upon high performance electrochemical energy storage systems, and batteries that can be used in portable electronic devices, renewable energy sources, and electrified traffic are receiving significant attention. Metallic lithium is considered the most promising battery negative electrode material due to its ultra-high theoretical specific capacity (3830 mAh g -1), light weight (6.94 g mol -1) and lower redox potential (3.04V compared to standard hydrogen electrode). However, the lithium metal anode has two major problems of safety (dendrite growth) and cycle stability, which are application-oriented bottlenecks. During battery cycling, a Solid Electrolyte (SEI) film is formed at the lithium negative electrode interface, and the interface dendrite growth and side reactions are very related to the negative electrode SEI interfacial film properties. The non-uniform SEI film is easy to break in the battery cycle, so that the electrolyte is in direct contact with the negative electrode, and side reaction is initiated. In addition, the uneven structure of the interface can induce the local aggregation of the surface negative charge, the polarization of the interface is enhanced, the concentration of the interface ions is unevenly distributed, the growth of dendrites is accelerated, and the safety problem of the battery is caused.
To overcome the chemical and mechanical instability of the electrode/electrolyte interface, thereby developing a stable and high performance lithium metal negative electrode (LMA), precise control of the composition and characteristics of the SEI is required. Surface and interface engineering plays a key role in improving the interfacial physicochemical and electrochemical properties of LMA because of its strong ability to build a variety of functional artificial SEI. Therefore, development of an artificial interface multifunctional protective layer with functions of inhibiting lithium dendrite and uniform deposition of lithium and excellent cycle performance is particularly critical to development of lithium metal batteries.
Disclosure of Invention
In order to solve all or part of the technical problems, the invention provides the following technical scheme:
The invention aims to provide a structure for protecting a lithium metal anode material, which comprises a multifunctional protection layer, wherein the raw materials of the multifunctional protection layer comprise 3 wt-10-wt% of polyhalogenated alkyl acrylate and 5-15 wt% of lanthanide metal halide.
The lanthanide metal halide and lithium in the structure for protecting the lithium metal anode material form inorganic components such as lanthanide metal, lithium alloy, lithium halide and the like, can induce uniform deposition and growth of lithium, provide higher mechanical strength and lower lithium ion diffusion barrier, and inhibit dendrite growth from two aspects of mechanical stress and chemical diffusion; the polyhalogenated alkyl acrylate organic component not only has better flexibility and ion permeability, can buffer the volume change of lithium metal, but also can promote the dispersibility and film forming property of lanthanide metal halide and inhibit the dissolution of lanthanide metal halide and the interfacial side reaction of free solvent; under the synergistic effect of the multi-component protective layer interface, the occurrence of side reactions is effectively reduced, and the lithium intercalation/exfoliation cycle is kept under a stable interface, which greatly reduces the formation of lithium dendrites and the volume expansion effect.
In some embodiments, the polyalkyl halide acrylate is a polymerized reaction of a halogenated alkyl acrylate monomer with methacryloyl fluoride, azobisisobutyronitrile.
Further, the halogenated alkyl acrylate monomer comprises one or more of ethyl 2-bromomethacrylate, ethyl 2-chloromethacrylate, 2-chloroethyl methacrylate, 2, 3-dibromopropyl acrylate, methyl 2-bromomethacrylate, and 2, 3-dibromopropyl acrylate.
In some embodiments, the lanthanide metal halide includes a combination of one or more of LaF3、CeF3、NdF3、LaCl3、CeCl3、 NdCl3、CeI3、LaI3、NdI3.
In some embodiments, the raw material of the multifunctional protective layer further includes an organic solvent, where the organic solvent includes one or a combination of several of tetrahydrofuran, N-dimethylformamide, dimethyl sulfoxide, ethylene glycol dimethyl ether, and 1, 3-dioxolane.
In some embodiments, the structure for protecting a lithium metal anode material further includes a substrate, and the multifunctional protective layer is bonded to a surface of the substrate.
Further, the substrate comprises copper foil and/or aluminum foil.
In some embodiments, the weight average molecular weight of the polyalkyl halide acrylate is 7000 to 9000.
In some embodiments, the thickness of the multifunctional protective layer is 2-5 μm. If the protective layer is too thick, the capacity of the battery is reduced, the conductivity is poor, the internal resistance of the battery is increased, the charging speed is also reduced, in addition, the internal pressure of the battery is increased due to the excessive film thickness, and even the expansion and leakage of the battery are possibly caused, so that the safety risk is increased; if the protective layer is too thin, it may lead to a shortened battery life, and internal short circuits and leakage may be easily generated, and at the same time, the risk of overcharge and overdischarge of the battery may be increased. The inventors found that the battery has excellent comprehensive performance when the thickness of the multifunctional protective layer is 2-5 mu m.
Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for protecting a lithium metal anode material, the method comprising:

And bonding the multifunctional protective layer on the surface of the metal lithium.
The addition amount of the polymer and the lanthanide metal halide provided by the invention can effectively relieve the formation of lithium dendrite, and further improve the safety and the cycle performance of the lithium ion battery. If the concentration of the polyalkyl halide acrylate or the lanthanide metal halide in the coating liquid is low or high, the cycle performance of the battery is significantly reduced, and the polarization voltage and the internal resistance are increased.
In some embodiments, the method of preparing the polyalkyl halide acrylate includes: and (3) under the inert atmosphere condition, carrying out polymerization reaction on a mixed reactant containing halogenated alkyl acrylate monomer, methacryloyl fluoride and azodiisobutyronitrile to obtain the poly halogenated alkyl acrylate.
Further, in the mixed reactant, the mass fractions of the halogenated alkyl acrylate monomer, the methacryloyl fluoride and the azodiisobutyronitrile are 30-60 wt%, 10-wt-40 wt% and 5-wt-10 wt% respectively.
Further, the reaction temperature of the polymerization reaction is 50-80 ℃ and the reaction time is 8-16 h.
Further, the preparation method further comprises the following steps: and after the polymerization reaction is finished, drying the reaction product, wherein the drying temperature of the drying treatment is 80-100 ℃ and the drying time is 3-6 hours, and the polyhalogenated alkyl acrylate is obtained.
Further, the halogenated alkyl acrylate monomer comprises one or more of ethyl 2-bromomethacrylate, ethyl 2-chloromethacrylate, 2-chloroethyl methacrylate, 2, 3-dibromopropyl acrylate, methyl 2-bromomethacrylate, and 2, 3-dibromopropyl acrylate.
In some embodiments, the lanthanide metal halide includes a combination of one or more of LaF3、CeF3、NdF3、LaCl3、CeCl3、 NdCl3、CeI3、LaI3、NdI3.
In some embodiments, the organic solvent comprises one or more of tetrahydrofuran, N-dimethylformamide, dimethylsulfoxide, ethylene glycol dimethyl ether, 1, 3-dioxolane.
In some embodiments, the method for preparing the coating solution includes: and adding the poly-halogenated alkyl acrylate and the lanthanide metal halide into the organic solvent, and stirring for 3-6 hours at the rotating speed of 500-800 r/min.
In some embodiments, the method specifically includes: and coating the coating liquid on the surface of the substrate, and drying to obtain the multifunctional protective layer.
In some embodiments, the drying comprises: and (3) vacuum drying the coating liquid at the temperature of 60-80 ℃ for 6-10 hours to form the multifunctional protective layer.
In some embodiments, the bonding the multifunctional protective layer to the metallic lithium surface specifically includes: and laminating the multifunctional protective layer with the metal lithium, and then carrying out rolling treatment. The method of combining the multifunctional protective layer on the surface of the metal lithium through rolling treatment can enable the formation of the protective layer to be more uniform, and if the coating liquid is directly coated on the lithium foil, the protective layer can have uneven phenomenon due to the fact that the lithium foil is too soft and has higher technological requirements.
In some embodiments, the thickness of the multifunctional protective layer is 2-5 μm.

It can be seen that the protective layer based on fluoroalkyl ethyl methacrylate polymer and lanthanide metal halide can more effectively improve battery performance than the method of directly adding in the electrolyte, which may be due to poor mechanical stability and not having high modulus of the protective layer formed in situ of the electrolyte, and difficulty in mechanically suppressing dendrite growth.
Table 1 battery voltage, internal resistance battery, and cycle performance measurement results of examples and comparative examples
As can be seen from comparing the test results of examples 1 to 8 and comparative examples 1 to 6, the battery composed of the metal lithium negative electrode having the multifunctional protection structure of 3 wt% to 10% wt% of the polyalkyl halide and 5% to 15% by weight of the lanthanide metal halide can significantly improve the polarization voltage and the cycle stability of the lithium metal battery, which is mainly because the protection structure provided by the present invention can uniformly deposit and grow lithium, promote rapid lithium ion transport, and reduce side reactions between the metal lithium and the electrolyte, while the structure has good flexibility, and can suppress dendrite growth and alleviate volume changes in the cycle, so that the lithium metal battery including the negative electrode exhibits more excellent performance.
