らなかつた。 A sodium-sulfur battery is a secondary battery that separates the two active materials using a bottomed solid electrolyte tube made of sodium ion conductive β-alumina, β″-alumina, Nasicon, etc., and operates at a high temperature of approximately 350°C. FIG. 1 shows a vertical cross-sectional view of a conventional sodium-sulfur battery, and its structure, effects, problems, etc. will be explained below. 1 is a bottomed solid electrolyte tube made of β''-alumina. 2 is sodium as a cathode active material. 3 is an inner container filled with the cathode active material 2, and a hole is provided in the upper lid. Reference numeral 4 denotes an outer container surrounding the inner container 3, and the inner space communicates with the inside of the inner container 3 through a hole in the upper lid of the inner container 3.
5 is a cathode current collecting terminal, which is welded to the inner container 3 and outer container 4. 6 is a cathode cover welded to the cathode current collector terminal tube 5. The lower end of the cathode current collector terminal 5 is connected to the inner container 3
It communicates with the inside and also serves as a gas inflow path for sodium filling and after the sodium filling, the vacuum seal is broken and an inert gas is introduced.After the sodium filling and the vacuum seal is released, the upper open end is sealed. Reference numeral 7 denotes a fixing member made of α-alumina, and the solid electrolyte tube 1 is bonded to the lower structure by glass soldering. 8
is a cathode auxiliary lid, which is joined to the fixing member 7 by glass solder and welded to the cathode lid 6. Reference numeral 9 denotes an anode cover made of a metal resistant to molten sulfur and sodium polysulfide, which is bonded to the fixing member 7 by glass soldering.
Reference numeral 10 denotes a battery container made of a molten sulfur/sodium polysulfide metal that also serves as an anode current collector, and is welded to the cathode lid 9. 11 is sulfur as a cathode active material.
It is sodium polysulfide. 12 is graphite,
An anode conductive material made of fibers such as carbon.
It is impregnated with the positive electrode active material 11 and is in close contact with the surfaces of the solid electrolyte tube 1 and the battery container 10. The cathode chamber of the sodium-sulfur battery having the above structure is manufactured as follows. The inner container 3, the outer container 4, and the cathode lid 6 are welded to the cathode current collecting terminal 5,
Placed in an argon gas atmosphere at 150°C. Subsequently, molten sodium at the same temperature is vacuum-filled from the tube port of the cathode current collector terminal 5 to fill the inner container 3. After filling, the vacuum seal at the tube port of the cathode current collector terminal 5 is released to allow argon gas to flow in, thereby storing the argon gas in the outer container 4. After cooling, the tube opening of the cathode current collector terminal 5 is sealed. A hole is provided in the bottom cover of the inner container 3 to allow sodium to flow therethrough. Next, the sodium-filled container is inserted into the solid electrolyte tube 1, and the cathode cover 6 and the cathode auxiliary cover 8 are welded together under a vacuum (or reduced pressure) condition. When the conventional sodium-sulfur battery obtained in this way is heated to 350°C, which is the battery operating temperature, the sodium in the inner container 3 melts, and when the sodium in the inner container 3 is heated, The argon gas that passes through the hole and is supplied to the area between the solid electrolyte tube 1 and the outer container 4, and is inside the outer container 4, thermally expands to about 2.2 atmospheres, and further pressurizes the molten sodium in the inner container 3. Facilitate supply. The supply of molten sodium is stopped when the interior space of the solid electrolyte tube 1 (the space area formed by the solid electrolyte tube 1 and the outer container 4) is filled with molten sodium. During discharge,
As the molten sodium in the solid electrolyte tube 1 moves to the anode chamber, the inner container 3 is moved by the amount of reaction that moves.
Supplied from. However, when the molten sodium in the inner container 3 runs out, the molten sodium in the space is consumed, and as a result, the space inside the solid electrolyte tube cannot be filled, and the action area decreases, causing the current density in the solid electrolyte tube 1. Therefore, it is necessary to make only the amount of molten sodium in the inner container 3 contribute to the battery reaction. That is, while the temperature is maintained at 350°C and before electricity is applied, molten sodium is moved and supplied from the inner container 3 to the space inside the solid electrolyte tube 1, and only the amount of molten sodium remaining in the inner container 3 is used for the battery reaction. Ru. The amount of decrease in molten sodium at this time corresponds to the space area (referred to as an inert area) formed by the solid electrolyte tube 1 and the outer container 4, and due to this decrease, the sodium utilization rate is extremely poor. It was hot. Therefore, as a method to eliminate this inactive area, it is possible to fill the inactive area with sodium during manufacturing, or to fill the anode active material with sodium polysulfide, so that the amount of sodium in the sodium polysulfide is I have tried replenishing the missing amount with a battery, or even making the battery larger, but in both cases, the productivity, volumetric efficiency, and weight efficiency of the battery only worsen, so there is no definitive solution. It didn't happen.

が含まれることにもなる。 The biggest reason why the sodium utilization rate of conventional sodium-sulfur batteries is poor is due to the intervention of the outer container 4, which is due to the need to obtain sufficient gas pressure to supply molten sodium from the inner container 3 to the space inside the solid electrolyte tube. Since the outer container is formed with a certain amount of space between it and the inner container 3, and the outer container has a thick wall, the amount of sodium that can be filled into the inner container 3 is also reduced, and sodium is not allowed to enter the inactive area. The supply further reduces the amount of sodium remaining in the inner container 3 that contributes to the battery reaction. Furthermore, the inactive region within the solid electrolyte tube 1 includes all areas where sodium is not present during battery assembly.

電解質管1内空間に供給される。 The present invention solves the conventional problems by eliminating the conventional outer container, increasing the internal volume of the inner container, increasing the sodium filling amount, and minimizing the inert area within the solid electrolyte tube to utilize sodium. It also has a function to stop the supply of sodium by losing the pressurizing effect of the gas communication chamber B provided at the inner bottom of the solid electrolyte tube when the bottom of the solid electrolyte tube is damaged. It is. A longitudinal cross-sectional view of the sodium-sulfur battery of the present invention is shown in FIG.

Reference numeral 13 denotes a metal container (hereinafter referred to as container A) made of a molten sodium-resistant metal and serving as a sodium reservoir, and the inside thereof is filled with sodium. 14 is a sodium passage provided in the upper lid of container A and extending to near the bottom. 15 is a gas communication passage extending from the lower lid of the container A to the upper part. Reference numeral 16 denotes a bottom lid made of molten sodium resistant metal, which forms a chamber with the lower lid of container A (hereinafter referred to as gas communication chamber B). Furthermore, gas communication chamber B contains a substance that generates gas at a temperature higher than the battery operating temperature. , for example, is filled with a material selected from diiron mononitride, germanium nitride (, ), thallium azide, tungsten dinitride, cadmium nitride, etc. Further, a part or the entire inside of the gas communication passage 15 is sealed with a heat softening or heat melting substance. Such a structure is manufactured as follows.
Container A to which the upper lid of the container A is welded with the sodium passage 14, the metal container 13, and the gas communication passage 15 whose upper open end is sealed with a polyamide-based resin, such as Barsalon, using a heat-fusible material.
Container A is formed by welding the lower lids of each.
Next, after filling several tens to hundreds of mg of thallium azide into the gas communication chamber B, the bottom cover 16 is welded to seal the inside of the gas communication chamber B (at this time, the inside of the gas communication chamber B is
(Can be in either vacuum or inert gas atmosphere). It is necessary to consider the amount of thallium azide so that sodium can be pushed out even at the end of discharge, the internal pressure can withstand the solid electrolyte tube even at the end of charge, and the internal pressure can electrochemically return sodium to the inside of the tube. Next, the temperature of the above structure was raised to 150℃,
Molten sodium at the same temperature is vacuum filled from the upper open end of the sodium passageway 14 and then cooled. After cooling, container A is filled with solidified sodium,
The gas communication chamber B is filled with thallium azide. Next, the bottom cover 16 of the gas communication chamber B of the structure
Heat to 350℃. By heating, thallium azide is decomposed into nitrogen gas and thallium, and the nitrogen gas fills the gas communication chamber B, creating a pressurized state. Note that the nitrogen gas does not leak outside because the upper open end of the gas communication path 15 is sealed with a heat-fusible substance and solidified sodium. Next, the structure is inserted into the solid electrolyte tube 1, the cathode cover is welded, and the inside of the solid electrolyte tube is sealed under vacuum (or reduced pressure). In addition,
After welding under normal pressure, it may be evacuated from the cathode current collector terminal and sealed in vacuum. When the sodium-sulfur battery thus obtained is heated to an operating temperature of 350°C, the sodium in container A is approximately 100°C.
becomes molten sodium. At this time, the sodium does not come out from the sodium passage. Next, gas communication path 1
When the bar salon that had sealed the sodium passageway 14 began to heat soften at approximately 140°C to 150°C and could no longer withstand the gas pressure, the sealing was released and the molten sodium flowed from the lower end of the sodium passageway 14 to the upper open end. The solid electrolyte is supplied to the interior space of the solid electrolyte tube 1 through the solid electrolyte tube.

れる。 The structure of the sodium-sulfur battery of the present invention has been described above, and its effects will be described below. By eliminating the outer container 4 and using the container A, the inert area is reduced, and the gas communication chamber B is provided below the lower lid of the container A.
In addition, by filling the interior with a substance that generates gas at a temperature higher than the battery operating temperature, the required gas pressure can be easily obtained, and the volume of the gas communication chamber B can be kept as small as possible, for example, in the lower part of the container A. Since the inert area can be made extremely small, such as by allowing the lid and the bottom lid 16 of the gas communication chamber B to be in close contact with each other, the amount of sodium remaining in the container A increases and the sodium utilization rate improves. Furthermore, if the solid electrolyte tube bottom is damaged and the bottom cover 16 is destroyed by the heat of the direct reaction between Na and S, the pressurizing effect of the gas communication chamber B disappears, Na supply from the sodium passage 14 is stopped, and the direct reaction The amount of Na to be reacted is limited to the gap formed between the solid electrolyte tube 1 and the container A, and if the gap volume is made small (or filled with a filler), the amount of direct reaction is limited.

The total volume of the cathode chamber including the inside of solid electrolyte tube 1 is 162 cm 3 ,
The inactive area volume is 10 cm3 . The amount of sodium charged at 150°C was approximately 117 g. After cooling, when the gas communication chamber B, especially the bottom cover 16, was rapidly heated to 450° C., about 4.6 cm 3 of nitrogen gas was generated in the gas communication chamber B, and the gas pressure in the chamber became about 1.3 atmospheres.

On the other hand, in the case of conventional batteries, the inner volume of the inner container 3 is reduced due to the outer container 4, and the volume that can be filled with sodium is approximately 102 cm3 .
The volume of the so-called inert region formed by the outer surface of the outer container 4 and the solid electrolyte is approximately 11 cm 3 , and the amount of sodium filled at 150°C is approximately 93.3 g, which is molten sodium supplied to the inert region at 350°C. The amount of sodium is approx.
The amount of molten sodium contributing to the battery reaction was approximately 83.7 g (93.3 g - 9.6 g). At that time, the sodium utilization rate was about 89.7%, which was 83.7/93.3. From the above, the present invention was able to improve the sodium utilization rate by about 2.9% compared to the conventional method. Furthermore, in the present invention, the amount of molten sodium that can contribute to the battery reaction within the solid electrolyte tube of the same shape is approximately 108.3g, whereas in the conventional method, the amount of molten sodium that can contribute to the battery reaction is approximately 83.7g.
