이차전지란 화학에너지가 전기에너지로 변환되는 방전과 역방향인 충전 과정을 통하여 반복적으로 사용할 수 있는 전지를 말한다. 이 중, 리튬 이차전지는 노트북, 휴대폰 등 다양한 휴대용 전자기기에 사용할 수 있으며, 향후 전기 자동차와 에너지 저장용으로 그 시장이 크게 확대될 것으로 예측된다. 그러나 리튬 이차전지의 시장이 확대됨에도 불구하고, 리튬의 매장량은 한정되어 있어 이를 대체할 수 있는 이차전지가 요구되고 있다.A secondary battery is a battery that can be used repeatedly through a charging process that is reverse to the discharge where chemical energy is converted into electrical energy. Among these, lithium secondary batteries can be used in various portable electronic devices such as laptops and mobile phones, and the market is expected to expand greatly in the future for electric vehicles and energy storage. However, despite the expansion of the market for lithium secondary batteries, lithium reserves are limited and thus secondary batteries are required.

As an alternative to lithium, it is abundantly buried in the world with even distribution of alkali metals belonging to group 1 of the periodic table, and is of interest as a next-generation sodium secondary battery with a high energy density with redox potential equal to that of lithium. This is concentrated.
그러나, 나트륨 이온은 리튬 이온보다 사이즈가 커 이동속도가 느리며, 나트륨의 반응활성 또한 우수하지 않아, 기존의 리튬 이차전지에서 사용되었던 전극 소재를 적용하는 경우 리튬이온 이차전지에서 나타내었던 특성에 비하여 용량이 발현되지 않거나, 급격한 용량퇴화 및 특성저하를 가져오는 경우가 대부분이다. However, since sodium ions are larger in size than lithium ions, they move slowly and do not have good reaction activity. So, when the electrode material used in the conventional lithium secondary battery is applied, the capacity is higher than that of the lithium ion secondary battery. In most cases, this is not expressed or results in rapid capacity deterioration and deterioration.

이하, 본 발명에 의한 나트륨 이차전지용 음극활물질, 이를 이용한 전극의 제조방법 및 이를 포함하는 나트륨 이차전지에 대하여 도면을 참조하여 상세히 설명하도록 한다.Hereinafter, a cathode active material for a sodium secondary battery according to the present invention, a method of manufacturing an electrode using the same, and a sodium secondary battery including the same will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
본 발명의 나트륨 이차전지용 음극활물질은, 인-탄소 복합체를 포함하여 이루어진다. 인은 가역적으로 나트륨 이온을 저장/배출할 수 있는 능력이 있지만, 전기전도도가 매우 낮아서 전극재료로 활용할 수 없으나, 본 발명에서는 전기전도도가 높은 탄소와 복합화하여 인의 낮은 전기전도도 문제를 해결하였다. The negative electrode active material for sodium secondary battery of the present invention comprises a phosphorus-carbon composite. Phosphorus has the ability to reversibly store / discharge sodium ions, but it is very low in electrical conductivity and cannot be used as an electrode material. However, the present invention solves the low electrical conductivity problem of phosphorus by complexing with carbon having high electrical conductivity.
인은 다양한 동소체를 가지고 있으며, 본 발명에서 탄소와의 복합물질로서 적린, 흑린, 백린, 황린 중 어느 것을 사용하여도 무방하나, 적린이 가장 효과적이다.Phosphorus has various allotropes, and red phosphorus, black phosphorus, white phosphorus, or sulfur phosphorus may be used as a composite material with carbon in the present invention, but red phosphorus is most effective.
나트륨 이온은 리튬 이온보다 반응성이 매우 낮으며, 이온의 확산속도도 느리기 때문에 활물질의 일차 입자의 크기도 작아야 하며, 활물질 내에서의 확산속도도 커야 한다. 따라서, 인과 탄소의 복합체를 구성함에 있어서도 인의 일차 입자 크기를 충분히 감소시키는 것이 중요하며, 전기전도성이 우수한 탄소와 균일한 복합체가 구성되도록 하여야 한다. 적린의 경우 백린의 P4분자에서 P-P 결합 하나가 깨어지면서 사슬형 구조를 가지며, 결정성이 없는 비정질 구조로, 밀도는 2.2 내지 2.34g/㎝3 정도를 나타내, 흑린의 밀도 2.69 g/㎝3보다작은값을가진다. 즉, 적린은 흑린, 백린, 황린과 비교하였을 때, 결정성이 없는 비정질상을 지니기 때문에 이온의 확산 속도에 큰 장점을 가지며, 더욱이 낮은 밀도로 치밀하지 않은 구조를 형성하고 있으므로 이온 확산에 더욱 유리하다.Since sodium ions are much less reactive than lithium ions, and the diffusion rate of ions is also slow, the size of primary particles of the active material should be small, and the diffusion rate within the active material should be large. Therefore, it is important to sufficiently reduce the primary particle size of phosphorus in forming a composite of phosphorus and carbon, and to make a uniform composite with carbon having excellent electrical conductivity. For red phosphorus having a binding chain-like structure PP As one wakes up from P 4 molecule of the WP, with an amorphous structure with no crystallinity, density represents a degree of 2.2 to 2.34g / ㎝ 3, heukrin density of 2.69 g / ㎝ 3 Has a smaller value. That is, red phosphorus has a great advantage in the diffusion rate of ions because it has an amorphous phase without crystallinity, compared with black phosphorus, white phosphorus, and yellow phosphorus, and is more advantageous for ion diffusion because it forms a dense structure with low density. .
인-탄소 복합체의 인과 탄소의 중량비는 1:0.1 내지 1:2.5인 것이 바람직하고, 더 바람직하게는 1:0.4 내지 1:1 인 것이 효과적이다. 인과 탄소의 중량비가 1:0.1 미만인 경우에는 전기전도도가 낮은 문제가 있으며, 1:2.5를 초과하는 경우에는 가역용량이 작아 활물질로 적합하지 않다.The weight ratio of phosphorus to carbon of the phosphorus-carbon composite is preferably 1: 0.1 to 1: 2.5, more preferably 1: 0.4 to 1: 1. If the weight ratio of phosphorus and carbon is less than 1: 0.1, there is a problem of low electrical conductivity, and if it exceeds 1: 2.5, the reversible capacity is small and is not suitable as an active material.
또한, 상기 인-탄소 복합체는 평균 입경이 0.01 내지 10㎛인 것이 바람직하며, 더 바람직하게는 0.1 내지 3㎛인 것이 효과적이다. 평균 입경이 0.01㎛ 미만이면 나트륨과의 반응성이 감소하여 전극의 형성이 어렵고, 10㎛를 초과하는 경우에는 나트륨 이온의 확산이 어려워지고 전극 제조시 거대 입자로 인한 불량이 발생할 가능성이 높아지는 문제가 있다.In addition, the phosphor-carbon composite preferably has an average particle diameter of 0.01 to 10 μm, more preferably 0.1 to 3 μm. If the average particle diameter is less than 0.01 μm, the reactivity with sodium decreases, making the electrode difficult. If the average particle diameter exceeds 10 μm, the diffusion of sodium ions becomes difficult and the possibility of defects caused by the large particles in the electrode manufacturing increases. .
상기 인-탄소 복합체의 1차 입경은 5 내지 500㎚인 것이 바람직하며, 더 바람직하게는 10 내지 100㎚인 것이 효과적이다. 1차 입경이 10㎚ 미만이거나 100㎚를 초과하는 경우에는 나트륨과의 반응성이 오히려 감소할 뿐만 아니라, 전극형성이 어려운 문제가 있다.The primary particle diameter of the phosphorus-carbon composite is preferably 5 to 500 nm, more preferably 10 to 100 nm. When the primary particle size is less than 10 nm or more than 100 nm, not only the reactivity with sodium is rather reduced, but also there is a problem that electrode formation is difficult.
여기서, 1차 입경은 1차 입자의 지름을 의미하는 것으로, 1차 입자는 분체 및 응집체를 구성하는 입자로, 분자간의 결합을 파괴하지 않고 존재하는 최소단위의 입자이며, 개개의 입자가 다른 입자와 응집하지 않고 단독으로 존재하고 있는 상태의 입자를 의미한다. 또한, 2차 입자는 1차 입자가 복수 개로 응집하여 형성된 입자, 즉 응집 입자를 의미한다.Here, the primary particle diameter refers to the diameter of the primary particles, the primary particles are particles constituting the powder and aggregate, particles of the smallest unit that does not break the bond between molecules, each particle is a different particle It means the particles in a state of being present alone without aggregation with. In addition, the secondary particle means a particle formed by aggregation of a plurality of primary particles, that is, aggregated particles.
결과적으로, 입자의 형상을 관찰할 때 갈라져있지 않은 덩어리를 나타내는 단위를 1차 입자라 하며, 이러한 1차 입자들이 뭉쳐서 분체를 형성하는 경우를 2차 입자라 한다. As a result, when observing the shape of the particles, the unit representing the unbroken mass is called primary particles, and the case where these primary particles aggregate to form powder is called secondary particles.

Graphene has excellent electrical conductivity, a large surface area of more than 2600 m 2 / g, and is chemically stable. In addition, since the space between the graphene can buffer the volume expansion and contraction of the electrode generated during the charging / discharging process, it can improve the cycle efficiency of the battery when implementing the negative electrode active material further comprising graphene . The content of graphene is preferably 0.1 to 10 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the phosphorus-carbon composite. The carbon of the phosphorus-carbon composite preferably has a specific surface area of 10 to 3000 m 2 / g, more preferably 10 to 100 m 2 / g.
상기에서 설명한 바와 같이, 인-탄소 복합체의 인은 적린인 것이 가장 바람직하며, 적린은 비정질상인 것을 특징으로 한다.As described above, the phosphorus of the phosphorus-carbon complex is most preferably red phosphorus, which is characterized in that the amorphous phase.
여기서, 비정질상이란, X선 회절분석을 분당 1o/min내지 16o/min의 주사속도로, 20o에서 70o까지 0.01o간격으로 측정하였을 때, 특성 피크가 나타나지 않는 것는 것을 의미한다. 상기 본 발명의 적린-탄소 복합체는 결정화도가 낮을수록 유리하며, 결정화의 정도는 X선 회절분석(XRD)의 실험결과로 판단이 가능하다. 따라서, 수차례의 실험결과, 상기와 같은 조건에서 X선 회절분석을 실시하여 특성 피크가 나타나지 않는 경우에 본 발명의 효과를 발휘할 수 있는 것으로 확인되었다.Here, the amorphous phase means that the characteristic peak does not appear when the X-ray diffraction analysis is measured at 0.01 o intervals from 20 o to 70 o at a scanning speed of 1 o / min to 16 o / min per minute. The red phosphorus-carbon composite of the present invention is advantageous as the crystallinity is lower, the degree of crystallization can be determined by the experimental results of X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD). Therefore, the results of several experiments confirmed that the effect of the present invention can be exerted when the characteristic peak does not appear by performing X-ray diffraction analysis under the above conditions.
또한, 상기 특성 피크의 존재여부는 베이스 라인에서 나타나는 잡음에 비하여 충분히 큰 특성피크의 신호가 발생하는지 여부로 판단할 수 있다. 잡음에 대하여 충분히 큰 신호가 발생하여 신호 대 잡음비(S/N ratio)가 50 이상인 경우에는 특성 피크가 존재하는 것으로 판단하였다. 잡음의 크기는 특성 피크가 발생하지 않는 영역에서의 베이스 라인의 진폭을 의미하며, 표준편차를 기준으로 잡는 것도 가능하다.In addition, the presence of the characteristic peak can be determined by whether a signal having a characteristic peak sufficiently larger than the noise appearing in the base line is generated. When a sufficiently large signal was generated for the noise and the signal-to-noise ratio (S / N ratio) was 50 or more, it was determined that a characteristic peak existed. The magnitude of the noise refers to the amplitude of the base line in the region where no characteristic peak occurs, and it is also possible to set the standard deviation as a reference.
상기 신호 대 잡음비란, 베이스 라인에 나타나는 신호의 진폭을 기준으로 하는 잡음의 크기에 대비하여, 발생되는 신호의 크기 비율을 나타내는 값으로, 더욱 바람직하게는 상기 신호 대 잡음비가 10 이상인 신호가 발생하지 않는 것이 가장 효과적이다. 수차례의 실험결과, 본 발명의 효과를 만족시키기 위해 상기 조건이 가장 바람직하다.The signal-to-noise ratio is a value representing the magnitude ratio of the generated signal relative to the amount of noise based on the amplitude of the signal appearing on the baseline. More preferably, the signal having the signal-to-noise ratio of 10 or more does not occur. Is most effective. As a result of several experiments, the above conditions are most preferable to satisfy the effects of the present invention.

상기 본 발명의 인-탄소 복합체 음극활물질은 나트륨 이차전지의 음극활물질로 구현되는 것이 가장 바람직하나, 이는 다른 전지에 대한 적용을 제한하지 않는다.The phosphorus-carbon composite anode active material of the present invention is most preferably implemented as a cathode active material of sodium secondary battery, but this does not limit the application to other batteries.
다음으로, 본 발명의 의한 인-탄소 복합체 음극활물질을 이용한 전극의 제조방법은, 도 1에 나타난 바와 같이, 페이스트 준비단계(S10), 도포단계(S20) 및 건조단계(S30)를 포함하여 이루어진다.Next, the method of manufacturing an electrode using the phosphorus-carbon composite anode active material according to the present invention, as shown in Figure 1, comprises a paste preparation step (S10), coating step (S20) and drying step (S30). .
페이스트 준비단계(S10)는 인-탄소 복합체로 이루어지는 음극활물질 분말에, 결합제 및 분산액을 혼합하여 페이스트를 제조하는 단계이다. 여기서, 인-탄소 복합체로 이루어지는 음극활물질은 상기에서 설명한 바와 같다. 또한, 음극활물질, 결합제는 페이스트로 만들기 용이하도록 분말형태로 사용된다. 혼합은 교반공정을 통해 이루어지는 것이 바람직하나 고르게 혼합될 수 있는 방법이면 어떠한 방법을 사용해도 무방하다.Paste preparation step (S10) is a step of preparing a paste by mixing a binder and a dispersion in a negative electrode active material powder consisting of a phosphorus-carbon composite. Here, the negative electrode active material composed of the phosphorus-carbon composite is as described above. In addition, the negative electrode active material, the binder is used in the form of a powder to make easily into a paste. Mixing is preferably performed through a stirring process, but any method may be used as long as it can be mixed evenly.
인-탄소 복합체는 인과 탄소를 기계적 밀링법을 이용하여 복합체를 합성한다. 기계적 밀링법은 인과 탄소를 볼과 함께 장입하여 고에너지 볼밀링기에 장착시켜 분당 200 내지 500회 이상의 회전속도로 기계적 합성을 수행하는 것으로, 산소 또는 수분의 영향을 최소화하기 위하여 아르곤 가스 분위기에서 수행하는 것이 바람직하다. 이러한 밀링은 상온에서 수행할 수 있어, 인-탄소 복합체를 별도의 공정없이 간단한 공정으로 용이하게 합성할 수 있다. 상기에서 설명한 바와 같이 그래핀을 더 포함하여 복합체를 형성할 수도 있다.Phosphorus-carbon composites synthesize phosphorus and carbon using mechanical milling. Mechanical milling method is loaded with phosphorus and carbon together with a ball and mounted in a high-energy ball mill to perform mechanical synthesis at a rotation speed of 200 to 500 or more times per minute, which is performed in an argon gas atmosphere to minimize the effects of oxygen or moisture. It is preferable. This milling can be performed at room temperature, so that the phosphor-carbon composite can be easily synthesized in a simple process without a separate process. As described above, graphene may be further included to form a complex.
상기 결합제는 폴리테트라플루오르에틸렌, 폴리비닐리덴플루오라이드, 셀룰로오스 스타이렌부타다이엔러버, 폴리이미드, 폴리아크릴릭산, 폴리아크릴산 알칼리염, 폴리메틸메타크릴레이트 또는 폴리아크릴로나이트릴 중 적어도 하나를 포함할 수 있다. The binder comprises at least one of polytetrafluoroethylene, polyvinylidene fluoride, cellulose styrenebutadiene rubber, polyimide, polyacrylic acid, alkali alkali salt, polymethyl methacrylate or polyacrylonitrile can do.
상기 결합제의 함량은 음극활물질 100중량부에 대하여, 3 내지 50중량부를 포함하는 것이 효과적이다. 결합제가 3중량부 미만인 경우에는 결합제의 역할을 충분히 수행할 수 없으며, 50중량부를 초과하는 경우에는 음극활물질의 반응성을 저해시키는 문제가 있다.The amount of the binder is effective to include 3 to 50 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the negative electrode active material. If the binder is less than 3 parts by weight, the binder may not fully serve, and if it exceeds 50 parts by weight, there is a problem of inhibiting the reactivity of the negative electrode active material.
상기 분산액은 N-메틸피롤리돈, 이소프로필알콜, 아세톤 또는 물 중 적어도 하나를 포함할 수 있다. 이는 음극활물질과 결합제가 용이하게 분산되도록 하는 역할을 한다. The dispersion may include at least one of N-methylpyrrolidone, isopropyl alcohol, acetone or water. This serves to easily disperse the negative electrode active material and the binder.
상기 분산액의 함량은 상기 음극활물질 100중량부에 대하여, 10 내지 200중량부를 포함하는 것이 바람직하며, 더 바람직하게는 50 내지 100중량부를 포함하는 것이 효과적이다. 분산액이 10중량부 미만인 경우에는 분산작용이 충분히 일어나지 않아 혼합이 어려운 문제가 있으며, 200중량부를 초과하는 경우에는 너무 묽어져 건조 과정이 오래 걸리는 등의 경제성이 떨어지는 문제가 있다.The content of the dispersion is preferably 10 to 200 parts by weight, more preferably 50 to 100 parts by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the negative electrode active material. If the dispersion is less than 10 parts by weight, there is a problem that the mixing action is difficult because the dispersion action does not occur sufficiently, if it exceeds 200 parts by weight, there is a problem that the economic efficiency, such as too thin to take a long drying process.
페이스트 준비단계(S10)에서, 도전재를 추가로 첨가할 수 있다. 도전재는 음극활물질, 결합제, 분산액과 함께 혼합되며, 전극의 저항을 더욱 줄임으로써 전지의 출력을 높이는 효과를 가져온다.In the paste preparation step S10, a conductive material may be further added. The conductive material is mixed with the negative electrode active material, the binder, and the dispersion, and further reduces the resistance of the electrode, thereby increasing the output of the battery.
상기 도전재는 카본블랙, 기상성장탄소섬유(vapor grown carbon fiber) 또는 흑연 중 적어도 하나이고, 분말상일 수 있다. 도전재는 음극활물질 100중량부에 대하여 1 내지 30중량부를 첨가하는 것이 바람직하며, 더 바람직하게는 10 내지 20중량부를 첨가하는 것이 효과적이다. 도전재가 1중량부 미만인 경우에는 전극의 저항을 줄여주는 효과가 미미하며, 30중량부를 초과하는 경우에는 경제성이 떨어질 뿐만 아니라, 오히려 음극활물질의 효과를 감소시킬 수 있는 문제가 있다.The conductive material is at least one of carbon black, vapor grown carbon fiber, or graphite, and may be powdery. It is preferable to add 1-30 weight part with respect to 100 weight part of negative electrode active materials, More preferably, it is effective to add 10-20 weight part. If the conductive material is less than 1 part by weight, the effect of reducing the resistance of the electrode is insignificant, and if it exceeds 30 parts by weight, not only economic efficiency is reduced, but rather there is a problem that can reduce the effect of the negative electrode active material.
다음으로, 도포단계(S20)는 페이스트를 전극용 집전체에 도포하는 단계이다. 전극용 집전체는 전도성이 높은 금속으로써, 상기 페이스트에 용이하게 접착될 수 있어야 한다. 이러한 성능을 가진 금속이라면 사용상 제한은 없으나, 구리, 알루미늄, 스테인리스, 니켈 중 적어도 하나를 사용하는 것이 뛰어난 성능을 구현할 수 있다. Next, the applying step (S20) is a step of applying the paste to the electrode current collector. The current collector for the electrode is a highly conductive metal, and should be easily adhered to the paste. If the metal having such a performance is not limited in use, but at least one of copper, aluminum, stainless steel, nickel can be implemented to excellent performance.
상기 페이스트 준비단계(S10)에 의해 준비된 페이스트를 상기 전극용 집전체에 균일하게 도포하는 방법은 다양한 방식으로 가능하나, 페이스트를 전극용 집전체 위에 분배시킨 후 닥터 블레이트(doctor blade) 등을 사용하여 균일하게 분산시키는 것이 가장 바람직하며, 경우에 따라서는 분배와 분산 과정을 하나의 공정으로 실행하는 방법도 사용 가능하다. 이 외에도 다이캐스팅(die casting), 콤마코팅(comma coating), 스크린 프린팅(screen printing) 등의 방법이 사용가능하며, 별도의 기재 위에 성형한 후 프레싱(pressing) 또는 라미네이션 방법에 의해 집전체와 접합시킬 수 도 있다.The method of uniformly applying the paste prepared by the paste preparation step (S10) to the electrode current collector is possible in various ways, but after dispensing the paste on the electrode current collector, a doctor blade or the like is used. It is most preferable to uniformly disperse the liquid, and in some cases, a method of distributing and dispersing in one process may be used. In addition, methods such as die casting, comma coating, and screen printing may be used, and may be formed on a separate substrate and then bonded to the current collector by pressing or lamination. Can also be.
마지막으로, 건조단계(S30)는 상기 페이스트를 건조시키는 단계이다. 건조 온도는 50 내지 200℃인 것이 바람직하며, 더욱 바람직하게는 100 내지 150℃인 것이 효과적이다. 50℃ 미만인 경우에는 건조 시간이 증가되어 경제성이 떨어지는 문제점이 있으며, 200℃를 초과하는 경우에는 페이스트가 탄화되거나 급속히 건조되어 전극의 저항이 증가되는 문제가 있다. 건조단계(S30)는 열풍이 부는 영역을 통과시키며 분산매 또는 용매를 증발시키는 과정이며 상압에서 이루어질 수 있다.Finally, the drying step (S30) is a step of drying the paste. The drying temperature is preferably 50 to 200 ° C, more preferably 100 to 150 ° C. If the temperature is less than 50 ° C., there is a problem in that the drying time is increased and the economy is inferior. If the temperature is more than 200 ° C., the paste is carbonized or rapidly dried to increase the resistance of the electrode. Drying step (S30) is a process of evaporating the dispersion medium or the solvent passing through the hot air blowing region may be made at atmospheric pressure.

또한, 라만 분광법을 이용하여 실시예 9 및 비교예 1, 5에 의한 음극활물질에 대한 구조의 규칙성을 분석하였다.In addition, the regularity of the structure of the negative electrode active material according to Example 9 and Comparative Examples 1 and 5 was analyzed using Raman spectroscopy.
실시예 1의 X선 회절분석 결과와 투과전자현미경으로 관찰한 입자 형태를 도2a와 도2b에 각각 도시하였다. 실시예 1의 인-탄소 복합체 음극활물질의 인과 탄소는 모두 비정질상으로 나타났으며, 평균 입경이 0.1 내지 3㎛ 크기임을 알 수 있다.X-ray diffraction analysis results and the particle shape observed by transmission electron microscope of Example 1 are shown in Figs. 2a and 2b, respectively. Phosphorus and carbon of the phosphorus-carbon composite anode active material of Example 1 both appeared to be in an amorphous phase, and it can be seen that the average particle diameter is 0.1 to 3 μm in size.
실시예 2의 X선 회절분석 결과와 주사전자현미경으로 관찰한 입자 형태를 도3a와 도3b에 각각 도시하였다. 실시예 1과 마찬가지로, 실시예 2 또한 인-탄소 복합체 음극활물질의 인과 탄소 모두 비정질상으로 나타났으며, 평균 입경이 0.1 내지 3㎛ 크기임을 알 수 있다.X-ray diffraction analysis results and the particle shape observed with a scanning electron microscope of Example 2 are shown in Figs. 3a and 3b, respectively. As in Example 1, Example 2 also appeared in both the phosphorus and carbon of the phosphorus-carbon composite anode active material in an amorphous phase, it can be seen that the average particle size is 0.1 to 3㎛ size.
비교예 1의 X선 회절분석 결과와 투과전자현미경으로 관찰한 입자 형태를 도4a와 도4b에 각각 도시하였다. 비교예 1 또한 비정질상이나, 평균 입경이 0.01 내지 10㎛로 분포가 넓게 나타났다. 즉, 적린의 경우, 적린 자체가 전기전도도가 낮아 활물질로 적합하지 않을뿐더러, 평균 입경이 범위가 넓어 나트륨 이온의 확산이 어렵다는 문제가 생길 수 있어 음극활물질로 사용하기 어렵다.X-ray diffraction analysis of Comparative Example 1 and the particle shape observed by transmission electron microscope are shown in Figs. 4a and 4b, respectively. Comparative Example 1 was also amorphous, but the average particle diameter was widely distributed in the range of 0.01 to 10 µm. That is, in the case of red phosphorus, red phosphorus itself is not suitable as an active material due to its low electrical conductivity, and the average particle diameter may be wide so that diffusion of sodium ions may be difficult, making it difficult to use as a negative electrode active material.
실시예 9의 X선 회절분석 결과와 주사전자현미경, 집속 이온빔으로 가공하여 준비된 단면이 주사전자현미경으로 관찰한 입자 형태를 도 14 및 도 15에 각각 도시하였다.X-ray diffraction analysis results of Example 9 and the particle shape observed by scanning electron microscopy prepared by scanning electron microscope and focused ion beam are shown in Figure 14 and 15, respectively.
수백 나노미터 크기의 입자가 뭉쳐서 수 마이크로 미터 크기의 이차 입자를 형성하고 있었다. 또한 단면에서의 에너지 분산형 X선분광의 결과를 보면 활물질 내부까지 인과 탄소가 균일하게 혼합되어 인-탄소 복합체 음극활물질이 제조되었음을 알 수 있다.Hundreds of nanometers of particles joined together to form secondary microparticles of several micrometers in size. In addition, the results of the energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy in the cross section shows that phosphorus and carbon are uniformly mixed up to the inside of the active material to prepare a phosphorus-carbon composite anode active material.

In the graph of Example 9, it can be seen that the characteristic peaks shown in Comparative Examples 1 and 5 were synthesized in the disappeared amorphous state.
실시예 9와 비교예 1에 대한 라만 분광 분석 결과를 도 17에 나타내었다. X선 회절분석에서는 어떠한 피크도 나타나지 않은 실시예 9의 음극활물질도 짧은 구간에서는 규칙성이 있음을 알 수 있었다. 탄소의 흑연 구조에 해당하는 1582cm-1의 파수에서 피크가 나타나고 있으며, 이 피크는 다이아몬드 구조에서 나타나는 1332cm-1의 파수에서의 피크보다 더욱 크다.Raman spectroscopic analysis results of Example 9 and Comparative Example 1 are shown in FIG. 17. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that the negative electrode active material of Example 9, which did not show any peak, was regular in a short period. The peak appears at a wavenumber of 1582 cm -1 corresponding to the graphite structure of carbon, which is larger than the peak at 1332 cm -1 at the diamond structure.

<실험 2> 재료의 반응전압 및 용량 확인<Experiment 2> Confirmation of reaction voltage and capacity of material
상기 실시예 3 내지 8, 11 내지 13과 비교예 2에 의해 제조된 전기화학 셀을 정전류 조건에서 충방전 실험을 수행하였다. 활물질 무게를 기준으로 143mA/g 또는 286mA/g 크기의 전류밀도를 사용하였다.Charge and discharge experiments were performed under the constant current conditions of the electrochemical cells prepared in Examples 3 to 8, 11 to 13, and Comparative Example 2. A current density of 143 mA / g or 286 mA / g was used based on the weight of the active material.
실시예 3의 정전류 충방전 곡선은 도 5에 나타내었다. 도 5에서 보는 바와 같이, 첫 번째 사이클의 충전용량은 1557mAh/g, 방전용량은 1323mAh/g으로 용량이 매우 크고 초기효율도 85%로 매우 높다. 두 번째 사이클에서도 첫 방전용량과 유사한 값을 보이며 충방전하고 있다. 방전용량을 적린에 대비하여 환산해 보면, 1890mAh/g으로 인(P)의 이론용량의 73%에 해당하는 높은 가역성을 지니고 있음을 알 수 있다. 또한 대부분의 충방전이 0.3 내지 0.8V 범위에서 일어남을 볼 수 있는데 이는 나트륨 이차전지의 음극으로 바람직한 특성이다. 즉, 음극으로서 충전전압이 너무 낮으면 충전시 나트륨의 전착(electroplating)이 일어나 전지의 안전성에 치명적인 문제가 있으며, 음극으로서 방전전압이 너무 높으면 완전지의 출력전압이 낮아진다. 따라서, 실시예 4의 경우, 충방전 전압이 0.3 내지 0.8V 범위 내에 있어 나트륨의 전착 문제와 완전지의 출력전압 감소 문제가 없음을 알 수 있다.The constant current charge and discharge curves of Example 3 are shown in FIG. 5. As shown in FIG. 5, the charge capacity of the first cycle is 1557 mAh / g and the discharge capacity is 1323 mAh / g, which is very large and has an initial efficiency of 85%. The second cycle is charging and discharging with a value similar to the first discharge capacity. In terms of the discharge capacity compared to the green, it can be seen that the 1890mAh / g has a high reversibility corresponding to 73% of the theoretical capacity of the phosphorus (P). In addition, it can be seen that most of the charge and discharge occurs in the range of 0.3 to 0.8V, which is a desirable characteristic as the negative electrode of the sodium secondary battery. In other words, if the charging voltage is too low as the negative electrode, the electroplating of sodium occurs during charging, which causes a fatal problem in the safety of the battery. If the discharge voltage is too high as the negative electrode, the output voltage of the battery is low. Therefore, in the case of Example 4, it can be seen that the charge-discharge voltage is in the range of 0.3 to 0.8V, so that there is no problem of electrodeposition of sodium and a problem of decreasing the output voltage of the complete cell.
실시예 4의 정전류 충방전 곡선은 도 6에 나타내었다. 도 6에서 보는 바와 같이, 첫 번째 사이클의 충전용량은 903mAh/g이고, 방전용량은 683mAh/g로 완만한 기울기의 곡선 형태를 나타낸다. 실시예 5는 실시예 4에 비하여 적린의 함량이 적어 용량과 초기 효율이 다소 낮게 나타난 것으로 보이나, 초기효율이 75%에 달하며, 충방전 전압이 0.3 내지 0.8V 범위 내에 있다.The constant current charge and discharge curves of Example 4 are shown in FIG. 6. As shown in FIG. 6, the charge capacity of the first cycle is 903 mAh / g, and the discharge capacity is 683 mAh / g, showing a gentle slope curve. In Example 5, the content of red phosphorus was lower than that of Example 4, so the capacity and initial efficiency appeared to be somewhat lower, but the initial efficiency reached 75%, and the charge / discharge voltage was in the range of 0.3 to 0.8V.
실시예 6의 경우 286mA/g의 정전류로 충방전 하였을 때, 방전용량이 1117mAh/g을 나타내며, 이는 탄소가 부족하여 전기전도성이 높지 않기 때문에 인의 함량에 대비하여서는 충분하지 않은 용량을 나타내고 있으나, 높은 용량을 보인다. 또한 실시예 5의 경우에는 286mA/g의 정전류로 충방전하였을 때, 방전용량이 1428mAh/g으로 가장 높게 나타나며 이는 실시예 6보다는 전기전도성이 높고 실시예 3과 4에 비하여는 인의 함량이 높아졌기 때문이다.In Example 6, when the battery was charged and discharged at a constant current of 286 mA / g, the discharge capacity was 1117 mAh / g, which is not sufficient for the phosphorus content because the electric conductivity is not high due to the lack of carbon, but the capacity is not high. Shows capacity. In addition, in the case of Example 5, when the charge and discharge at a constant current of 286mA / g, the discharge capacity was the highest to 1428mAh / g, because the electrical conductivity is higher than in Example 6 and the phosphorus content is higher than in Examples 3 and 4 to be.
실시예 7의 정전류 충방전 곡선은 도 7에 나타내었다. 도 7에서 보는 바와 같이, 첫 번째 사이클의 충전용량은 1208mAh/g 이고, 방전용량은 1016mAh/g이다. 실시예 4에 비하여 전극에 그래핀이 추가되어 전체 무게당 용량이 감소하였으며, 초기 효율은 84%로 실시예 4와 유사한 값을 보이고 있다.The constant current charge and discharge curves of Example 7 are shown in FIG. 7. As shown in FIG. 7, the charge capacity of the first cycle is 1208 mAh / g, and the discharge capacity is 1016 mAh / g. Compared to Example 4, graphene was added to the electrode to decrease the capacity per weight, and the initial efficiency was 84%, which is similar to that of Example 4.
실시예 8의 정전류 충방전 곡선은 도 8에 나타내었다. 첫 번째 사이클의 충전용량은 1698mAh/g이고, 방전용량은 1473mAh/g으로서, 초기 효율이 86%로 우수한 효과를 나타낸다. 두번째 사이클에서의 용량 유지율 또한 우수하게 나타났다. The constant current charge and discharge curves of Example 8 are shown in FIG. 8. The charge capacity of the first cycle is 1698 mAh / g and the discharge capacity is 1473 mAh / g, which shows an excellent effect with an initial efficiency of 86%. Capacity retention in the second cycle was also excellent.
실시예 10의 정전류 충방전 곡선은 도 18에 나타내었다. 첫 번째 사이클의 충전용량은 1730mAh/g이고, 방전용량은 1350mAh/g으로서 인의 함량이 높지 않음에도 불구하고 높은 용량을 나타내었으며 초기 효율도 78%로 비교적 높게 관찰되었다.The constant current charge and discharge curves of Example 10 are shown in FIG. 18. The first cycle had a charge capacity of 1730 mAh / g and a discharge capacity of 1350 mAh / g, which showed a high capacity despite the high phosphorus content and a relatively high initial efficiency of 78%.
실시예 11의 정전류 충방전 곡선은 도 20에 나타내었다. 첫 번째 사이클의 충전용량은 1870mAh/g이고 방전용량은 1492mAh/g으로서 높은 용량을 나타내었으며, 초기 효율은 80%로 불화에틸렌카보네이트를 추가하여 사용하는 경우 초기 용량이 증가함을 알 수 있다.The constant current charge / discharge curve of Example 11 is shown in FIG. 20. The charge capacity of the first cycle was 1870mAh / g and the discharge capacity was 1492mAh / g, indicating a high capacity, and the initial efficiency was 80%, and it can be seen that the initial capacity is increased when ethylene carbonate is added.
실시예 12의 정전류 충방전 곡선은 도 22에 나타내었다. 첫 번째 사이클의 충전용량은 1670mAh/g이고 방전용량은 1100mAh/g으로서 높은 용량을 나타내었으며, 초기 효율도 66%로 실시예 10보다는 다소 낮은 용량과 효율을 나타내었다.The constant current charge and discharge curves of Example 12 are shown in FIG. 22. In the first cycle, the charging capacity was 1670mAh / g and the discharge capacity was 1100mAh / g, which was a high capacity, and the initial efficiency was 66%, which was somewhat lower than that in Example 10.
실시예 13의 정전류 충방전 곡선은 도 24에 나타내었다. 첫 번째 사이클의 충전용량은 1730mAh/g이고 방전용량은 1520mAh/g으로 높은 용량을 나타내였으며, 초기 효율도 88%로 매우 높게 나타내고 있어, 용매로 테트라에틸렌글리콜 디메틸이써(TEGDME)를 사용하는 경우 성능이 향상됨을 알 수 있다.The constant current charge and discharge curves of Example 13 are shown in FIG. 24. In the first cycle, the charge capacity was 1730mAh / g and the discharge capacity was 1520mAh / g, showing a high capacity, and the initial efficiency was also very high at 88%. When using tetraethylene glycol dimethyl ether (TEGDME) as a solvent, It can be seen that the performance is improved.
비교예 2의 정전류 충방전 곡선은 도 9에 나타내었다. 도 9에서 보는 바와 같이, 첫 번째 사이클의 충전용량은 1718mAh/g이고, 방전용량은 250mAh/g으로서 효율이 15%로 매우 낮다. 두번째 사이클부터는 충방전 용량이 급격히 감소함을 알 수 있다. 비교예 2는 초기 충방전 과정에서 부피가 팽창 및 수축하며 일부 인(P)이 전기적으로 고립되어 저장된 나트륨이 빠져 나오지 못하여 초기 효율이 낮은 것으로 보인다. 이는 인이 탄소와 복합화되지 않은 경우 전기적 고립현상이 심각해지기 때문이다. 비교예 3의 경우의 가역용량은 347mAh/g, 비교예 4의 경우의 가역용량은 115mAh/g으로 측정되었으며, 인-탄소 복합체에서 나트륨을 저장하는 역할을 주로 담당하는 인의 함량이 낮거나 없기 때문에 나트륨 이온의 배출 및 저장 능력이 현저히 떨어져 매우 낮은 값의 용량을 가짐을 알 수 있다.The constant current charge and discharge curves of Comparative Example 2 are shown in FIG. 9. As shown in Fig. 9, the charge capacity of the first cycle is 1718mAh / g, the discharge capacity is 250mAh / g, and the efficiency is very low, which is 15%. From the second cycle it can be seen that the charge and discharge capacity is drastically reduced. Comparative Example 2 seems to have a low initial efficiency because the volume is expanded and contracted during the initial charging and discharging process, and some phosphorus (P) is electrically isolated so that the stored sodium does not escape. This is because the electrical isolation becomes serious when phosphorus is not complexed with carbon. The reversible capacity of Comparative Example 3 was 347 mAh / g, and the reversible capacity of Comparative Example 4 was 115 mAh / g, since the phosphorus content mainly responsible for storing sodium in the phosphorus-carbon composite was low or absent. It can be seen that the discharge and storage capacity of sodium ions is significantly lowered and has a very low value capacity.
따라서, 본 발명에서와 같이 음극활물질로 인과 탄소의 복합체를 구성함으로써, 나트륨을 저장할 수 있는 인의 함량을 확보하면서도 전기적 고립현상을 억제하여 저장된 나트륨을 모두 배출할 수 있게 하여, 높은 용량, 높은 효율의 구현이 가능해진다.Therefore, by forming a composite of phosphorus and carbon with a cathode active material as in the present invention, while ensuring the content of phosphorus to store sodium, it is possible to discharge all stored sodium by suppressing the electrical isolation phenomenon, high capacity, high efficiency Implementation is possible.

실시예 3에서 제조된 전기화학 셀을 정전류·정전압 방식으로 충전하고 정전류 방식으로 방전하여 전지의 수명 특성을 측정하고 그 결과를 도 10에 나타내었다. The electrochemical cell prepared in Example 3 was charged by the constant current and constant voltage method and discharged by the constant current method to measure the life characteristics of the battery, and the results are shown in FIG. 10.
정전류 충전시 인-탄소 복합체 음극활물질의 무게를 기준으로 143mA/g의 전류에서 0V(vs. Na/Na+)전압영역까지 충전을 수행하였다. 정전류 방전은 활물질의 무게를 기준으로 143mA/g의 전류 하에 1.5V(vs. Na/Na+)까지 방전하여 용량의 감소를 확인하였다. 실험 결과, 30 사이클까지도 용량의 감소가 거의 없으며, 적린 몰당 2몰 이상의 나트륨 이온이 가역적으로 저장/배출되며 약 1250mAh/g 이상의 높은 가역 용량을 나타냈다.During constant current charging, charging was performed from a current of 143 mA / g to a 0 V (vs. Na / Na + ) voltage region based on the weight of the phosphorus-carbon composite anode active material. The constant current discharge was discharged to 1.5 V (vs. Na / Na + ) under a current of 143 mA / g based on the weight of the active material to confirm the decrease in capacity. As a result of the experiment, there was almost no reduction in capacity up to 30 cycles, and more than 2 moles of sodium ions per mole of red were reversibly stored / exhausted and showed a high reversible capacity of about 1250 mAh / g or more.
실시예 10에서 제조된 전기화학 셀을 정전류·정전압 방식으로 충전하고 정전류 방식으로 방전하여 전지의 수명 특성을 측정하고 그 결과를 도 19에 나타내었다. 초기 10사이클까지 용량의 감소가 조금 발생하지만 이 이후에 60사이클까지도 용량의 감소가 일어나지 않으며 오히려 초기에 감소된 용량이 모두 회복되어 안정한 용량을 유지하고 있다. 이를 볼 때, 인-탄소 복합체 음극활물질의 제조시에 흑연을 사용하는 것은 우수한 초기용량의 구현 및 안정된 수명의 확보가 가능함을 알 수 있다.The electrochemical cell prepared in Example 10 was charged in a constant current / constant voltage method and discharged in a constant current method to measure the life characteristics of the battery, and the results are shown in FIG. 19. There is a slight decrease in capacity up to the first 10 cycles, but there is no decrease in capacity even after 60 cycles. Rather, all of the initially reduced capacity is recovered to maintain a stable capacity. In view of this, it can be seen that the use of graphite in the preparation of the phosphorus-carbon composite anode active material can realize the excellent initial capacity and ensure a stable lifetime.
실시예 11에서 제조된 전기화학 셀을 정전류·정전압 방식으로 충전하고 정전류 방식으로 방전하여 전지의 수명 특성을 측정하고 그 결과를 도 21에 나타내었다. 초기용량이 실시예 10보다 증가하였을 뿐만 아니라 초기에 용량이 감소하는 부분이 사라지고 이후에 지속적으로 용량이 증가하여 30사이클 이후에는 1700mAh/g 이상의 용량이 나타났다. 전해질에 불화에틸렌카보네이트를 첨가하는 경우 더욱 안정되고 우수한 성능의 구현이 가능함을 알 수 있다.The electrochemical cell prepared in Example 11 was charged by the constant current and constant voltage method and discharged by the constant current method to measure the life characteristics of the battery, and the results are shown in FIG. 21. Not only did the initial capacity increase than that of Example 10, but the portion where the capacity decreases initially disappears and then the capacity continuously increases, and after 30 cycles, a capacity of 1700 mAh / g or more appears. When ethylene carbonate is added to the electrolyte, it can be seen that more stable and superior performance can be achieved.
실시예 12에서 제조된 전기화학 셀을 정전류·정전압 방식으로 충전하고 정전류 방식으로 방전하여 전지의 수명 특성을 측정하고 그 결과를 도 23에 나타내었다. 초기의 용량은 다소 낮았으나 실시예 9에서 준비된 시료는 모두 안정된 사이클이 진행되었고 NaPF6염을 사용하는 경우에 초기용량은 다소 낮더라도 수명 특성에서는 여전히 우수하게 관찰되었다.The electrochemical cell prepared in Example 12 was charged by the constant current and constant voltage method and discharged by the constant current method to measure the life characteristics of the battery, and the results are shown in FIG. 23. Although the initial dose was somewhat low, all of the samples prepared in Example 9 had a stable cycle, and when NaPF 6 salt was used, the initial capacity was still excellent even though the initial dose was somewhat low.
실시예 13에서 제조된 전기화학 셀을 정전류·정전압 방식으로 충전하고 정전류 방식으로 방전하여 전지의 수명 특성을 측정하고 그 결과를 도 25에 나타내었다. 높은 초기효율을 구현하고 초기용량의 감소나 점진적인 용량의 변화없이 안정한 용량이 나타나고 있어 전해질에서 용매로 테트라에틸렌글리콜 디메틸이써를 사용하는 경우에 안정되니 성능이 구현 가능함을 알 수 있다.The electrochemical cell prepared in Example 13 was charged by the constant current and constant voltage method and discharged by the constant current method to measure the life characteristics of the battery, and the results are shown in FIG. 25. High initial efficiency and stable capacity are shown without decreasing initial capacity or gradual change of capacity. Therefore, it is stable when tetraethylene glycol dimethyl ether is used as solvent in electrolyte.

실시예 3에서 제조된 전기화학 셀을 정전류로 충방전하며 ex-situ 방법으로 X선 회절분석을 수행하였다. 0.0~1.5V(vs. Na/Na+)전압영역에서 143mA/g 의 전류를 사용하였다. X선 회절분석은 첫 번째 사이클 충전시 0.2V, 0.0V에서 충전을 중단하고, 1.5V에서 방전을 중단한 전극을 각각 준비하여 아르곤 분위기의 글러브 박스에서 전기화학 셀을 분해하여 전극을 얻어낸 후, 이 전극을 베릴륨(Be) 윈도우에 캡톤 테이프로 접착하여 수행하였다.The electrochemical cell prepared in Example 3 was charged and discharged with a constant current, and X-ray diffraction analysis was performed by ex-situ method. A current of 143 mA / g was used in the 0.0-1.5 V (vs. Na / Na + ) voltage range. In the X-ray diffraction analysis, when the first cycle charging was stopped at 0.2V and 0.0V, the electrodes were stopped at 1.5V, and each electrode was prepared by decomposing an electrochemical cell in an argon glove box to obtain an electrode. This electrode was performed by adhering Kapton tape to a beryllium (Be) window.
실험 결과를 도 11에 나타내었다. 충전 전에 비정질상이었던 인-탄소 복합체는 충전이 0.2V까지 진행되어 피크가 나타나지 않았지만, 0.0V에서 충전을 중단하고 X선 회절분석으로 얻어낸 회절 패턴에서는 Na3P에 해당하는 특정 피크가 관측되었다. 이를 1.5V까지 방전시킨 후 측정한 X선 회절 패턴에서는 다시 비정질로 확인되었다. 이 결과를 통해 인-탄소 복합체는 충전 과정 중에 비정질이었던 인이 결정질 Na3P상으로 변화하였다가, 방전 과정에 다시 비정질상 인으로 복원되는 것을 확인할 수 있었다. The experimental results are shown in FIG. 11. The phosphorus-carbon composite, which was in an amorphous phase before charging, showed no peak due to the charging progressing to 0.2V, but specific peaks corresponding to Na 3 P were observed in the diffraction pattern obtained by X-ray diffraction analysis after stopping charging at 0.0V. It was confirmed to be amorphous again in the X-ray diffraction pattern measured after discharging this to 1.5V. This result confirms that the phosphorus-carbon composite is changed to the crystalline Na 3 P phase which was amorphous during the charging process, and then restored to the amorphous phosphor again during the discharge process.

A dose of% is shown.
또한, 실시예 3 내지 6에서의 충전 및 방전전류에 따른 용량을 도 13에 비교하여 나타내었다. 이를 보면 용량은 인의 함량이 높을수록 속도 특성은 탄소의 함량이 높아질수록 유리하기 때문에 용량과 속도 특성을 모두 고려하여 고용량과 고출력 특성을 조합할 수 있으며, 특히 실시예 3의 조성의 경우 전류 속도에 따른 충방전 특성에 있어서, 가장 우수한 효과가 나타남을 알 수 있었다.In addition, the capacity according to the charge and discharge current in Examples 3 to 6 is shown in comparison with FIG.
