Description

Metal hydrogen-storing/nickel-based battery preparation method of negative material
Affiliated field
The present invention relates to a kind of Metal hydrogen-storing/nickel (MH/Ni) battery, particularly a kind of Metal hydrogen-storing/nickel (MH/Ni) negative electrode battery material and preparation method.Belong to the battery electrode material field.
Background technology
Traditional energies such as current oil are exhausted day by day, and because give off a large amount of carbon dioxide in using, produce greenhouse effect, cause serious threat and destruction for the biological environment of the earth.People are above the novel clean energy resource hydrogen of the numerous and confused trend of purchasing of eye.The MH battery is because have a specific capacity height, the characteristics of cleanliness without any pollution and obtain to produce widely and use, and widely used cell negative electrode material is with CaCu 5AB for principal phase 5The type rare earth alloy and is a principal phase with Laves mutually, the AB that is made of Ti, Zr, V and Ni 2The type titanium-base alloy.AB 5Its capacity of type rare earth alloy is near its theoretical limit, AB 2Though the type titanium-base alloy has high capacity, activation is difficulty, and cost is also higher, so people are at the novel MH cell negative electrode material of the cheap high power capacity of active development.There is report to study the LaMg that replaces the rare earth in rare earth-Ni alloy with Mg the earliest 2Ni 9System [K.Kadir, J.of Alloys and compounds 284 (1999) 145], this system is to belong to PuNi 3The system of type has the LaNi of ratio 5High hydrogen.The patent [JP11 264041A+ (TOSHIBA CORP), 28 September 1999] of Toshiba's application has afterwards been mentioned AB 3And AB 3.5The rare earth of type-Ni system alloy has high capacity and multiplying power discharging characteristic preferably, and that study in the patent of Panasonic is AB 3.5And AB 5Rare earth-Ni system that type mixes has higher capacity and good cyclical stability.But the Mg-Ni-rare earth-based alloy exists also that reversible to put hydrogen low, and cyclical stability is poor, composition and structure problem more rambunctious.
Summary of the invention
The hydrogen storage material and the preparation method that the purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of new construction, with the negative material of using in metal current storage hydrogen/nickel (MH/Ni) battery mutually the specific capacity high life long.
For realizing purpose of the present invention, a kind of Metal hydrogen-storing/nickel provided by the invention (MH/Ni) negative electrode battery material is A 2B 7Type or AB 3.5Type (Ce 2Ni 7Type crystal structure) material, the composition general formula of negative material is (Mm xMg (1-x)) (Ni yCo zAl mR (1-y-z-m)) n, 0.4≤x<1 wherein; 0.5≤y≤1; 0≤m≤0.2,0<z≤0.3; 3.3≤n≤3.7, main component are rare-earth and Mg-transition metal.A 2B 7The type hydrogen-storage alloy is than AB 5The type alloy has higher theoretical capacity, and the raising that is added with the capacity of being beneficial to and the Ce of light metal magnesium 2Ni 7The formation of type structure.Magnesium corrodes in the alkaline solution of battery easily, improves the cycle life of alloy by the addition of restriction magnesium, the proportioning of adjustment B side element (Ni, Co, Al etc.), mixes middle rare earth La 〉=25wt%.
Because the fusing point of Mg is low, the fusing point of other elements differs bigger in vapour pressure height and the system, if with the direct melting of Mg simple substance, the inevitable a large amount of evaporations of Mg make alloying component be difficult to control.Use MgNi in the present invention 2Intermediate alloy, about 1143 ℃ of its fusing point, can better controlled in melting the evaporation of Mg.
Generate Ce 2Ni 7The reaction of type crystal structure is a peritectic reaction.In generative process, may produce AB 3Type and AB 5The dephasign of type is so melted alloy must obtain purer single phase by heat treatment.
Mg corrodes in alkaline solution easily, by adding elements such as Co, Al; The ratio of adjusting each rare earth composition in the rare earth of A side improves cyclical stability, prevents that the Mg corrosion from causing structural damage, and causes the very fast decline of capacity.
Below technical scheme of the present invention is described in further detail:
The Mg hydrogen is very big, but because generate stable hydride with hydrogen, is difficult to emit hydrogen at normal temperatures and pressures, so reversible hydrogen storage amount is very little under the normal temperature and pressure.Alloy among the present invention is the alloy of Mg-Ni-rare earth system, and its principal phase structure is Ce 2Ni 7Type, the alloy with this structure just has higher reversible hydrogen at normal temperatures and pressures, theoretical electrochemistry capacity height.Mg is in the stable structure, so more generally be difficult to corrosion; Add other as elements such as Co, Al after, form the coating of protectiveness at alloy surface, also can protect Mg not to be corroded.
The fusing point of Mg is low, and vapour pressure is very high, thus with high-melting-point alloy such as Ni together directly during melting, evaporation is violent, be difficult to control composition accurately, and Mg is very active, directly and other compositions together during melting, easily generation is splashed because reaction is violent.So melting the time to adopt the intermediate alloy of Mg.MgNi 2Stable in properties, fusing point have more than 1040 ℃, are more or less the same with the fusing point of other compositions in the alloy, evaporation that can better controlled Mg.
According to 1: 2 mixed Mg powder of amount of substance and Ni powder.At 0.5-2T/cm 2It is 10mm that the powder that following of the pressure of ton mixes is pressed into diameter, and thickness is about the disk of 5mm, puts into the airtight stainless steel tube that is filled with the 0.6MPa argon gas, 960 ℃ of following sintering 6 hours, and the back proves that with the XRD detection that obtain is MgNi 2
, concrete with the foundry alloy of Mg and Ni and rare earth and other composition elements by forming general formula (Mm by the proportioning weighing xMg (1-x)) (Ni yCo zAl mR (1-y-z-m)) n, 0.4≤x<1 wherein; 0.5≤y≤1; 0≤m≤0.2,0<z≤0.3; 3.3≤n≤3.7.Behind the batching mixing, the water jacketed copper crucible melting of under argon shield, putting into the high frequency suspension smelting furnace.Smelting temperature is controlled at 1700 ℃-2200 ℃, and the upset melting makes it even for 2 times.
The alloy that obtains after the melting contains many CaCu 5Equate dephasign, for obtaining the purer Ce that contains 2Ni 7The alloy of principal phase must be heat-treated.Mg volatilizees easily, and the easy oxidation of rare earth, so must control heat-treat condition well.Be evacuated down to 1 * 10 earlier during annealing -5Pa, be warmed up to 300 ℃ after the insulation 0.3-1.2 hour.After charge into an atmospheric argon gas, be warmed up to the temperature that needs again, generally be 600 ℃-1300 ℃.Be incubated 0.5-10 hour.Temperature and temperature retention time are lacked very much and are oversize all bad, and too short diffusion is incomplete, can't obtain the phase of needs, long Mg evaporation, and composition changes, and rare-earth oxidation influences performance.
