CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION
The present application claims priority to European application No. 17306836.2 filed on December 19, 2017, the whole content of this application being incorporated herein by reference. Should the disclosure of any patents, patent applications, and publications which are incorporated herein by reference conflict with the description of the present application to the extent that it may render a term unclear, the present description shall take precedence.
TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The invention relates to an electrochemical energy storage device, in particular an electrochemical capacitor. Furthermore, the invention relates to the use of certain poly cationic compounds in such electrochemical energy storage devices.
BACKGROUND
Electrochemical capacitors play an intermediate role between traditional electrostatic capacitors and batteries in terms of energy density and power density.
Electrochemical capacitors can generally be divided into one of two subcategories: double-layer capacitors in which the interfacial capacitance at the electrode/electrolyte interface can be modeled as two parallel sheets of charge; and pseudocapacitor devices in which charge transfer between the electrolyte and the electrode occurs over a wide potential range, and is the result of primary, secondary, and tertiary oxidation/reduction reactions between the electrode and the electrolyte. These types of electrochemical capacitors are, for example, developed for high-pulse power applications.
As the chare and discharge rates of electrochemical capacitors are orders of magnitude faster than batteries, there have been considerable efforts to increase the energy density of pseudocapacitor materials. Metal oxides have gained significant interest owing to their reversible Faradaic surface reactions that allow for up to an order of magnitude greater energy storage than carbon-based electrochemical double-layer capacitors.
For example, US 5,392,191 describes a multi-face anode material for an aqueous electrochemical capacitor, having at least one amorphous phase and having the formula: TMaObXc, wherein TM is a transition metal selected from Y, Zr, Ti, Hf, Nb, and Sc; O is oxygen, X is a halogen modifier element; and a is between 0.1 and 3.0, b is between 1.0 and 7.0, and c is between 0.0 and 5.0.
US 2017/0084401 Al discloses a hybrid electrochemical energy storage device which can be a pseudocapacitor with a cathode having a coated activated carbon powder which is coated with metal oxides, metal nitrides, metal sulfites, metal phosphates, polymers, and ion conducting or solid electrolytes. The metal oxides may be selected among classic pseudocapacitor materials, such as Ru02, Mn02, etc.
However, classic pseudocapacitor materials including Ru02, Mn02 and
Ni(OH)2 are limited by high costs, low capacities or limited potential windows, respectively.
In an effort to overcome these deficiencies, J.T. Mefford, et al. in Nature Materials, vol. 13, 2014, 726-732 investigate the mechanism of
oxygen- vacancy-mediated redox pseudocapacitance for a nanostructured lanthanum-based perovskite, namely LaMnCfi. The authors claim that this was the first example of anion-based intercalation pseudocapacitance as well as the first time that oxygen intercalation has been exploited for fast energy storage.
In view of the increasing power and energy demands for next-generation electronic devices, there is still a demand for improved energy storage devices. There is therefore a need for new pseudocapacitor materials exhibiting improved energy density, high operating voltage, and exceptional behavior in cycling. SUMMARY
The present inventors found that a certain class of polycationic compounds solves the above problems. It was found that these compounds exhibit a large energy density, a high surface oxygen diffusion coefficient and an oxygen deficiency which makes them useful as pseudocapacitors in electrochemical energy storage devices. The present invention therefore relates to an
electrochemical energy storage device, comprising
a first electrode comprising a polycationic compound of the Formula

0 < delta < 0.33,

an electrolyte, wherein the electrolyte is in ionic contact with the first electrode and the second electrode.
Furthermore, the present invention relates to the use of the above polycationic compounds in an electrochemical energy storage device, preferably an electrochemical capacitor.
Furthermore, the invention relates to a method of manufacturing an electrochemical energy storage device, preferably an electrochemical capacitor, which comprises mixing the above polycationic compound with a carbonaceous material and optionally a binder material to obtain an electrode.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
Figure 1 shows a cycle life up to 8000 cycles and a capacity of about 20 F/g for CeNb04+deita (Example 1). Figure 2 shows a cycling behavior for LaMnCh (Comparative Example) between 0.3 V and 0.8 V, which was conducted at a rate of 10 mV. s 1.
EXAMPLES
For the following examples, the structure, morphology and chemical composition of the prepared nanoparticles of the polycationic compounds were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD, PANalytical X'Pert Pro with an X’Celerator detector and Cu Ka radiation), transmission electron microscopy (TEM, Hitachi H9000-NAR) and energy-dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX, Oxford Instrument). Brunauer-Emmett-T eller (BET) surface area measurements were performed with a Quantachrome Nova 4200e operated with nitrogen gas.
The electrochemical performance was measured by cyclic voltammetry (CV) with a VMP3 galvanostat-potentiostat from Biologic run under ECLab software. The experiments were conducted in a 3 electrode cell assembly, using Ag/AgCl (3M NaCl) as the reference electrode, a platinum grid as the counter electrode, and 5M L1NO3 as the electrolyte.
Capacities of the electrodes were calculated by integrating the reductive part of the CVs. The voltammetric charge related to the presence of carbon black in the composite electrodes was subtracted prior to di vide by the width of the potential window to calculate the electrode capacitance. Finally, the capacitance was divided by the mass of active material to evaluate the specific capacitance of the powders. The volumetric capacitance was obtained by multiplying this value by the density that was calculated from the refined XRD lattice parameters.
In each example, the working electrode was prepared as follows:
The working electrodes were prepared by mixing 60 wt.% of the polycationic compound with 30 wt.% of "Superior Graphite" and 10 wt.% of PTFE. The mixture was homogenized in ethanol with magnetic stirring and heated to total evaporation of the solvent. The solid suspension was rolled manually to obtain a basis weight of about 5 to 10 mg/cm2. A 12 mm diameter sample was taken by punch and pressed between two stainless steel grids serving as a current collector under a pressure of 900 MPa.
Example 1
CeNb04 was synthesized by hydrothermal route starting from cerium nitrate in water and niobium chloride in ethanol. Precipitate was obtained by mixing these two solutions and adjusting the pH at 10 by ammonia addition. This precipitate was sealed in a polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)-lined autoclave which was maintained at at 240°C during 12 h before being centrifuged and washed sequentially in water and ethanol and then dried.
From the obtained powder an electrode was prepared (see previous section) and a cycling between -0.7 V and 0,9V was conducted at a rate of 20 mV. s 1.
The behavior is presented in Figure 1 showing a capacity of ~20 F/g and a good stability for 7000 cycles.
Comparative Example
LaMnCF was synthesized by autocombustion route starting from lanthanum nitrate and manganese tetrahydrate. Citric acid (AC) and ethylene glycol (EG) were added in the proportion [AC]/[Metallic Cations] = 3 and [EG]/[AC] = 2. Gel was obtained by dehydration, followed by heat treatment at 300°C (10 h under air) before a heating treatment at 700°C during 5 hours, leading to a specific surface of 10 m2/g.
From the obtained powder an electrode was prepared as explained above and a cycling between 0.3 V and 0.8 V was conducted at a rate of 10 mV. s 1.
The behavior is presented in Figure 2.
Capacitance was measured below 30 pF/cm2 which was attributed to electrochemical double layer capacitance and not pseudocapacitance.
