Description

Water-based zinc ion battery additive and battery electrolyte
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of secondary batteries, and relates to a water-based zinc ion battery additive and electrolyte.
Technical Field
Currently, lithium ion batteries have been widely used in energy storage power stations, electric vehicles, and other various electronic devices. However, the lithium ion battery has the problems of fire explosion, higher cost, resource shortage, high waste disposal cost and the like, and the application of the lithium ion battery in the field of large-scale energy storage is restricted. Aqueous zinc ion batteries are receiving wide attention due to safe and environment-friendly aqueous electrolytes and abundant and cheap electrode materials, and are considered as one of ideal schemes for large-scale electrochemical energy storage. However, the zinc cathode of the water-based zinc ion battery has the problems of hydrogen evolution, surface passivation and dendrite growth which are mutually coupled, and the problems of battery swelling, performance degradation and short circuit failure are respectively caused. Currently, the addition of additives to the electrolyte is one of the most effective methods for inhibiting zinc dendrite growth and shorting problems. However, current electrolyte additives are mainly small molecule organics and polymers, and these two types of additives have poor dendrite inhibition effect.
Disclosure of Invention
In view of the shortcomings pointed out in the background art, the invention provides an aqueous zinc ion battery additive and a battery electrolyte, which are used for solving the problem of short circuit of a battery caused by dendrite growth of a zinc cathode.
In order to achieve the above purpose, the invention adopts the following technical scheme:
a water-based zinc ion battery additive comprises silver nitrate.
The aqueous zinc ion battery electrolyte containing the additive consists of common electrolyte and 0.001-0.1mol/L additive; the electrolyte in the electrolyte is one or two of zinc sulfate, zinc triflate, zinc perchlorate and zinc nitrate. The concentration of the ordinary electrolyte is preferably 3mol/L.
Through tests, the water system zinc ion battery electrolyte can greatly prolong the short-circuit time of a zinc cathode; according to the functions and effects, the aqueous zinc ion battery electrolyte can improve the circulation stability of the aqueous zinc ion battery.
The invention has the advantages that: the silver nitrate additive is added into the zinc ion battery water-based electrolyte, so that a silver-zinc alloy protective layer can be formed on the surface of the zinc foil. The alloy protective layer can effectively inhibit hydrogen gas precipitation and passivation of the zinc cathode by isolating the zinc cathode from electrolyte. The alloy protective layer also has high zinc affinity, is favorable for uniform migration and deposition of zinc ions on the surface of the negative electrode, thereby inhibiting formation and growth of zinc dendrites, greatly prolonging the short-circuit time of the zinc negative electrode, prolonging the service life of the device of the water-based zinc ion battery, and obviously improving the effect over the current small molecular organic matters and polymer additives. The additive has the advantages of less consumption, convenient use and less pollution.

Detailed Description
For the purpose of making the technical solution and advantages of the present invention more apparent, the present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It should be understood that the detailed description is presented by way of example only and is not intended to limit the invention.
A water-based zinc ion battery additive comprises silver nitrate.
The aqueous zinc ion battery electrolyte containing the additive consists of common electrolyte and the additive with the concentration of 0.001-0.1 mol/L; through experimental screening, the electrolyte of the common electrolyte can be one or two of zinc sulfate, zinc trifluoromethane sulfonate, zinc perchlorate and zinc nitrate, and the concentration of the common electrolyte is preferably 3mol/L.
Example 1
(1) Preparation of electrolyte:
taking ultrapure water prepared by the ultrapure water machine as a solvent, adding zinc sulfate heptahydrate, and stirring and dissolving to prepare a zinc sulfate aqueous solution with the concentration of 3mol/L. Adding the required silver nitrate solid salt into the zinc sulfate solution, stirring and dissolving to obtain the aqueous zinc ion battery electrolyte containing 0.001-0.1mol/L silver nitrate additive. In addition, a 3mol/L zinc sulfate electrolyte to which no silver nitrate was added was prepared as a control experiment.
(2) Preparation of Zn// Zn symmetric cell
Clean zinc foil (thickness 100 μm) was selected, polished with sand paper, cut into a wafer with a diameter of 10mm, used as an electrode of a symmetrical battery, glass fiber was used as a separator, the electrolyte package 2025 containing the additive described in (1) was used, and the electrolyte package 2025 containing no additive was used as a control.
(3) Additive Effect test
The symmetrical cell was set at 2mA/cm 2 Current density and 2mAh/cm 2 And (5) carrying out cyclic charge and discharge test on the electric quantity density. When a sudden change in potential is observed, the sudden change time point is taken as the short-circuit time of the symmetrical cell.
The test results were as follows: fig. 1 is a scanning electron micrograph of a polished zinc foil. FIG. 2 is a graph of a battery at 2mA/cm using 3mol/L zinc sulfate electrolyte 2 Current density and 2mAh/cm 2 Scanning electron micrographs after 18 cycles at bulk density. After a plurality of charge-discharge cycles in 3mol/L zinc sulfate electrolyte, the surface of the zinc foil cathode is severely corroded, and obvious dendrites grow on the surface. FIG. 3 is a graph of a battery at 2mA/cm using a 3mol/L zinc sulfate electrolyte containing 0.005mol/L silver nitrate additive 2 Current density and 2mAh/cm 2 Scanning electron micrographs after 18 cycles of cycling at the volume density show that after cycling in the electrolyte containing the additive, the surface of the zinc electrode sheet is relatively flat and dendrite formation and growth are significantly inhibited. FIG. 4 is an illustration of an assembled symmetrical cell using 3mol/L zinc sulfate electrolyte and 3mol/L zinc sulfate electrolyte containing 8 different concentrations of silver nitrate additives at 2mA/cm 2 Current density and 2mAh/cm 2 Cycling performance plot at capacity density. It can be seen that the zinc foil cathode has the best cycle performance in 3mol/L zinc sulfate electrolyte added with 0.005mol/L silver nitrate additive, and the short circuit of the symmetrical battery can reach 460 hours. FIG. 5 is a graph of the use of 3 containing different concentrations of silver nitrate additiveThe mol/L zinc sulfate electrolyte assembled symmetrical battery is at 2mA/cm 2 Current density and 2mAh/cm 2 Line graph of short circuit time at capacity density. It can be seen that the short-circuit time of the symmetrical cell using 3mol/L zinc sulfate electrolyte was 25 hours, whereas the cycle performance using electrolyte containing 0.005mol/L silver nitrate additive was best, and the short-circuit time could reach 460 hours, and the cycle life time was 1700% increased.
The foregoing description of the preferred embodiments of the invention is not intended to be limiting, but rather is intended to cover all modifications, equivalents, and alternatives falling within the spirit and scope of the invention.
