Definitions
- the invention refers to a supercapacitor obtained by assembling a plurality of particles of ceramic material , having the function of ionic conductor, coated with an electronic conductor material , with other uncoated particles of the same ceramic material .
- the present invention also refers to a method for coating said particles of ceramic material of nanometer dimensions , by means of auto-catalytic copper deposition, said ceramic substrate being an ionic conductor and said copper coating being an electronic conductor .
- a solution to the aforementioned problems is the use of devices , such as supercapacitors , capable of accumulating electric charge and which are characteri zed by high speci fic power and high capacity .
- supercapacitors usually consist of two electrodes of various materials (usually aluminum) covered with activated carbon with a high surface area (up to 2000 m 2 /g) , a separator and an electrolyte .
- the stored energy is higher than the capacity of a classic capacitor, since the charge separation occurs in the double electrode layer which occurs at molecular scale distances .
- these supercapacitors present some unresolved problems such as poor resistance to both mechanical stress and high temperature operation .
- One way of making these supercapacitors consists in the use of metal coatings, of solid state electrolyte nano-powders. In this case the powders act as an ion conductor and the metal coating acts as an electronic conductor.
- a method of auto-catalytic deposition of metals on powders developed by G. Wen et al. (Department of Materials, Queen Mary and Westfield College, University of London, Mile End Road, London El 4NS, UK 2School) , provides that zirconium dioxide (ZrO 2 ) powders are effectively coated with a pure nickel layer by auto-catalytic deposition.
- ZrO 2 zirconium dioxide
- This method includes the following steps:
- An object of the present invention is to propose a new type of supercapacitor obtained by suitably assembling said coated powders, whatever the nature of said powders and said coating material .
- Another object of the present invention is to develop a new composite material for the realization of a new generation of supercapacitors, which overcome the limits constituted by the poor resistance both to mechanical stresses and to high temperature operation .
- Said supercapacitors according to the invention will be made of solid state materials and able to function even in non-standard working conditions (high temperature and high mechanical stresses ) . They can also be designed speci fically for the chosen use without particular geometric constraints .
- said electrodes comprise a plurality of coated particles mixed with uncoated particles , wherein said particles :
- said material having the function of ionic conductor is a ceramic material , LATP and/or LAGP .
- the method for coating a ceramic substrate of nanometer dimensions , by means of auto-catalytic copper deposition, said ceramic substrate being an ionic conductor and said copper coating being an electronic conductor comprises the following steps : sensitization of the surface of the ceramic substrate by immersion of said ceramic substrate in a sensitization solution containing stannous chloride (SnCl 2 ) ; activation of said surface of the ceramic substrate by immersion of said ceramic substrate in an activation solution containing palladium dichloride (PdCl 2 ) ;
- CuSCg copper sulphate
- NTA nitrilotriacetic acid
- said nano-sized ceramic substrate comprising LAGP (Li (i +x) Al (x ) Ge ( 2-X ) (PO4) 3 ) and LATP
- the deposition of a metallic material on an ionic conducting substrate generates an interface between the two materials that allows to perform the function of accumulation of electric charge , thanks to the behavior similar to that of an EDLC supercapacitor, i . e . accumulation of electric charge through the formation of an electrical double layer at the electrode/electrolyte interface .
- the supercapacitors according to the invention have a wide range of application .
- the supercapacitors according to the invention exceed in particular the limits of current supercapacitors , as they are also suitable for prohibitive use situations such as the presence of extreme temperatures or particular atmospheric conditions (such as space vacuum) .
- Figure 1 ( a ) , (b ) shows the scheme of a supercapacitor according to the invention .
- the ion conductor represents , together with the electronic conductor, the element necessary to obtain a complete electrochemical system .
- these ionic conducting materials LAGP and LATP, in the form of nanoparticles were chosen .
- Both selected materials belong to the Li-S ICON family ( Lithium Super Ionic CONductor ) , with very similar structures but with the replacement of di f ferent elements , skeleton consisting of phosphate tetrahedra and octahedra containing the main metal atoms ( germanium for LAGP and titanium for LATP) partially replaced with aluminum atoms . This partial replacement guarantees an increase in the ion mobility of the lithium ions ( Li ) .
- Procedures must comply with laboratory safety regulations ; also for this reason the search for an auto-catalytic deposition bath has been focused on finding a composition that is as safe as possible , with the minimum number of dangerous reagents involved . In the same way, any environmental risks or risks related to the disposal of the substances used were assessed . Finally, the operating conditions and the deposition solution must ensure a chemical inertness for the substrate , for which instabilities are however reported only i f exposed to solutions with extreme pH values (between 1 and 14) , but certainly stable for intermediate values, (between 4 and 7) .
- the amounts refer to the optimal formulation obtained during the study, analyzing the variation of the deposition rate based on pH, temperature and concentration of reducing and complexing agent .
- composition variation consists in the addition of small quantities of nickel in solution .
- the additions of nickel allow the inclusion of the same metal in the coating, thus creating catalytic sites for the oxidation reaction of sodium hypophosphite , resulting in an increase in the deposition rate and uni form growths .
- nickel sul fate for example heptahydrate (NiSCg . Vl/hO) and potassium ferrocyanide (K4 Fe ( CN) e)

Description
SUPERCAPACITOR FOR ENERGY STORAGE SYSTEMS AND RELATED MANUFACTURING METHOD
The invention refers to a supercapacitor obtained by assembling a plurality of particles of ceramic material , having the function of ionic conductor, coated with an electronic conductor material , with other uncoated particles of the same ceramic material .
The present invention also refers to a method for coating said particles of ceramic material of nanometer dimensions , by means of auto-catalytic copper deposition, said ceramic substrate being an ionic conductor and said copper coating being an electronic conductor .
In some areas , such as the automotive industry, it is necessary to have systems characteri zed by high speci fic power, capable of providing large amounts of energy in short intervals of time . Most energy storage systems , such as classic lithium-ion batteries , often have to be oversi zed in order to meet the demand in
terms of energy and deliverable power . The geometries of the devices currently in use are often standardi zed, therefore not customi zable by those who have to use them within a system, so some design precautions are necessary (heat management , position, occupied volume , added mass ) to be able to make the energy storage system compatible with the actual user .
A solution to the aforementioned problems is the use of devices , such as supercapacitors , capable of accumulating electric charge and which are characteri zed by high speci fic power and high capacity .
As known, supercapacitors usually consist of two electrodes of various materials (usually aluminum) covered with activated carbon with a high surface area (up to 2000 m2/g) , a separator and an electrolyte .
The stored energy is higher than the capacity of a classic capacitor, since the charge separation occurs in the double electrode layer which occurs at molecular scale distances .
However, these supercapacitors present some unresolved problems such as poor resistance to both mechanical stress and high temperature operation .
One way of making these supercapacitors consists in the use of metal coatings, of solid state electrolyte nano-powders. In this case the powders act as an ion conductor and the metal coating acts as an electronic conductor.
A method of auto-catalytic deposition of metals on powders, developed by G. Wen et al. (Department of Materials, Queen Mary and Westfield College, University of London, Mile End Road, London El 4NS, UK 2School) , provides that zirconium dioxide (ZrO2) powders are effectively coated with a pure nickel layer by auto-catalytic deposition.
This method includes the following steps:
- sensitization and activation of the surface of said ceramic powders;
- auto-catalytic deposition of nickel by immersion in a solution comprising a nickel salt.
An object of the present invention is to propose a new type of supercapacitor obtained by suitably assembling said coated powders, whatever the nature of said powders and said coating material .
Another object of the present invention is to develop a new composite material for the realization of a new generation of supercapacitors,
which overcome the limits constituted by the poor resistance both to mechanical stresses and to high temperature operation .
Said supercapacitors according to the invention will be made of solid state materials and able to function even in non-standard working conditions (high temperature and high mechanical stresses ) . They can also be designed speci fically for the chosen use without particular geometric constraints .
These and other obj ects are achieved with a device and a method according to their respective independent claims .
The device is a supercapacitor of the type comprising two electrodes separated by an electrolyte and is characteri zed in that :
- said electrodes comprise a plurality of coated particles mixed with uncoated particles , wherein said particles :
* consist of a material having the ionic conductor function of Li ( i+x ) Al ( x ) Ge <2-X) ( PO4 ) 3 ( LAGP ) and/or Li (i+x) Al (X) Ti (2-x) ( PO4 ) 3 ( LATP ) ;
* they are coated with a metal lic material having the function of electronic conductor ; the mixture being consolidated by sintering
heat treatment thus providing a structure m which the particles of LATP and/or LAGP with metallic and agglomerated coatings are in contact and constitute a conductive network 2 , while the particles of LATP and/or LAGP do not coated and agglomerated form an ionic conductor 3 .
According to a preferred embodiment , said material having the function of ionic conductor is a ceramic material , LATP and/or LAGP .
By varying the potential of the metal , an accumulation of electric charge is generated which is compensated by a motion of ions within the solid state electrolyte . In this way, a system similar to a classic condenser is created .
By coupling two electrodes operating on the basis of this technology, an overall system can be obtained that can be assimilated to two capacitors connected in series with each other ( the two electrodes separated from the electrolyte ) .
The method for coating a ceramic substrate of nanometer dimensions , by means of auto-catalytic copper deposition, said ceramic substrate being an ionic conductor and said copper coating being an electronic conductor, comprises the following steps :
sensitization of the surface of the ceramic substrate by immersion of said ceramic substrate in a sensitization solution containing stannous chloride (SnCl2) ; activation of said surface of the ceramic substrate by immersion of said ceramic substrate in an activation solution containing palladium dichloride (PdCl2) ;
- auto-catalytic deposition of copper; wherein said auto-catalytic deposition of copper occurs by immersion in a solution for autocatalytic deposition comprising the following components :
- copper sulphate (CuSCg) , acting as a source of copper ions;
- nitrilotriacetic acid (NTA) , with the function of complexing agent for the copper ions Cu++;
- sodium hypophosphite (NaH2PO2) , with the function of reducing agent;
- sodium acetate (CHsCOONa) , with the function of buffer to keep the pH of said solution constant; said nano-sized ceramic substrate comprising LAGP (Li (i+x)Al (x) Ge (2-X) (PO4) 3) and LATP
(Li (i+x)Al (x) Ti (2-X) (PO4) 3) , alternatively or together; said auto-catalytic deposition occurs at a
temperature of 50 e 80 C and a pH substantially between 3 and 7 .
The deposition of a metallic material on an ionic conducting substrate generates an interface between the two materials that allows to perform the function of accumulation of electric charge , thanks to the behavior similar to that of an EDLC supercapacitor, i . e . accumulation of electric charge through the formation of an electrical double layer at the electrode/electrolyte interface .
Preferred embodiments and non-trivial variants of the present invention are the subj ect matter of the dependent claims .
The supercapacitors according to the invention have a wide range of application .
In particular, they deal with a technology suitable for use in any application that is characteri zed by an impulsive , non-constant energy demand and/or high power requirements , for example in the case of electric motors . Some examples are the automotive sector, the electric micro-mobility sector, electric boats , aerospace .
The supercapacitors according to the invention exceed in particular the limits of current
supercapacitors , as they are also suitable for prohibitive use situations such as the presence of extreme temperatures or particular atmospheric conditions ( such as space vacuum) .
The deposition of a metal using as substrate said ceramic particles of solid electrolyte LATP and LAGP, allows to have advantages when compared with other methods of construction of super- capacitive devices , such as :
- shorter process time ;
- better adhesion of the electronic conductor to the ionic conductor in the solid state ; electronic conductor/ ion conductor contact area equal to 100% ;
- easily scalable procedure ;
- lower resistance of the electrode interface in the device thanks to the metallic nature of the electronic conductor .
It will be immediately obvious that innumerable variations and modi fications ( for example relating to shape , dimensions , arrangements and parts with equivalent functionality) can be made to what is described without departing from the scope of the invention, as appears from the attached claims .
It is understood that all the attached claims form an integral part of the present description .
The present invention will be better described by a preferred embodiment , given by way of non-limiting example , with reference to the attached drawings , in which
Figure 1 ( a ) , (b ) shows the scheme of a supercapacitor according to the invention .
The ion conductor represents , together with the electronic conductor, the element necessary to obtain a complete electrochemical system . Given the basic requirements of good ionic conductivity at room temperature , stability of the material to exposure in air, cost of the material and high surface development , these ionic conducting materials LAGP and LATP, in the form of nanoparticles , were chosen . Both selected materials belong to the Li-S ICON family ( Lithium Super Ionic CONductor ) , with very similar structures but with the replacement of di f ferent elements , skeleton consisting of phosphate tetrahedra and octahedra containing the main metal atoms ( germanium for LAGP and titanium for LATP) partially replaced with aluminum atoms . This partial replacement guarantees an increase in the
ion mobility of the lithium ions ( Li ) .
The research carried out led to the optimi zation of a procedure for the auto-catalytic deposition of copper .
To obtain an electronic conductor with good electrical conductivity, it is necessary to make a deposit of pure metal , without the presence of precipitates or secondary phases . However, in order to obtain a fast and uni form growth of the copper coating, the presence of catalytic sites within the copper matrix is necessary, as will be speci fied below .
Procedures must comply with laboratory safety regulations ; also for this reason the search for an auto-catalytic deposition bath has been focused on finding a composition that is as safe as possible , with the minimum number of dangerous reagents involved . In the same way, any environmental risks or risks related to the disposal of the substances used were assessed . Finally, the operating conditions and the deposition solution must ensure a chemical inertness for the substrate , for which instabilities are however reported only i f exposed to solutions with extreme pH values (between 1 and
14) , but certainly stable for intermediate values, (between 4 and 7) .
From a research carried out in the literature, an auto-catalytic deposition procedure was selected for the realization of a metallic coating in pure copper. The reagents, functions, concentrations are reported in the TAB. 1, while the reaction conditions are reported in TAB. Ibis; these values are valid if applied to the treatment of a quantity of dust equal to 2.5 g/L, for greater quantities of dust it is necessary to reduce the concentration of the reagents.
The amounts refer to the optimal formulation
obtained during the study, analyzing the variation of the deposition rate based on pH, temperature and concentration of reducing and complexing agent .
Research has shown that the ideal process conditions are obtained with a temperature of 50 a 80 ° C and a pH of 3 a 7 .
With the introduction of the PEG- 600 surfactant in solution, a decrease in the resistivity of the coating, a decrease in surface roughness and an improvement in mechanical properties was highlighted . With this treatment , it is possible to obtain a pure copper layer on the nanoparticles .
After the analysis of the reagents involved, a change in the composition of the bath was expected in order to avoid known ef fects of slowing the growth of the copper coating . These slowdowns are attributable to a poor reactivity of one of the reagents ( sodium hypophosphite ) on the previous copper deposit , as the pure copper coating is not perfectly catalytic for the oxidation reaction of the reducing agent . The composition variation consists in the addition of small quantities of nickel in solution . The additions of nickel allow the inclusion of the same metal in the coating,
thus creating catalytic sites for the oxidation reaction of sodium hypophosphite , resulting in an increase in the deposition rate and uni form growths . The additives needed to achieve the inclusion of nickel in the coating are nickel sul fate , for example heptahydrate (NiSCg . Vl/hO) and potassium ferrocyanide (K4 Fe ( CN) e) • Nickel sulphate is necessary to add nickel ions in solution and thus obtain the co-deposition of nickel inside the copper matrix thus generating the catalytic sites for the oxidation of sodium hypophosphite , while potassium ferrocyanide improves the quality, the finish of the coating and increases its density; in particular, with its addition, a decrease in the reduction current of copper ions ( Cu++ ) and in the oxidation of sodium hypophosphite is obtained, a phenomenon explained by the adsorption of the species on the surface of the electrode , which thus leads to an opposition charge trans fer and nucleation, in addition to the ef fect of the potassium ferrocyanide itsel f which complexes the ions in solution, thus also decreasing their activity . A similar ef fect with a similar mechanism is attributable to another reagent present in the bath, the surfactant Polyethylene Glycol- 600 ( PEG-
600 ) . The addition of these secondary additives took place with the concentrations reported in TAB . 2 .
Since it is necessary to deposit the copper on electrically insulating and non-catalytic substrates to the expected electrochemical reaction, it is necessary to functionali ze the surface . This occurs classically through the preliminary deposition of small quantities of catalytic metal ( for example palladium) .
The traditional procedure usually involves a first phase of chemical attack on the surface , followed by sensiti zation and activation in a solution containing stannous chloride , palladium dichloride and hydrochloric acid .
The sensiti zation phase was adapted to the treatment of ceramic nano-powders ( LATP and LAGP ) , providing in this case the suspension and agitation of the materials within the solution containing the stannous chloride for 10 min . The activation phase follows , during which the catalytic sites on the surface are generated; this step also has an expected duration of 10 min . Both sensiti zation and activation phases are carried out at room temperature .
Awareness raising and activation are carried out in two steps with separate solutions .
The complete procedure , according to the invention, for the auto-catalytic deposition of copper on LATP and LAGP powders involves the following steps .
1 . Dispersion : the LAGP and LATP particles are inserted in distilled water and dispersed by ultrasound with a duration of 15 a 20 min .
2. First washing: the LAGP and LATP particles are separated by centrifugation.
3. Drying: the LAGP and LATP particles are dried in an oven at a temperature of 60 °C.
4. Sensitization: the dry particles of LAGP and LATP are dispersed in the sensitization solution containing the tin compound, subjecting them to a dispersion procedure by means of an ultrasonic bath lasting about 10 min.
5. Second washing: the particles of LAGP and LATP together with the sensitization solution are separated from it by centrifugation, the sensitization solution is then eliminated and distilled water is added; the particles are subjected to dispersion by means of an ultrasonic bath and are again separated from the distilled water by centrifugation.
6. Activation: the LAGP and LATP particles are immersed in the activation solution containing the palladium compound and subjected to dispersion by means of an ultrasonic bath for the duration of 10 min.; the dispersion is carried out by centrifugation to separate the particles from the activation solution which is eliminated, then the particles are subjected to drying at room
temperature , possibly using volatile solvents for quick drying .
7 . Auto-catalytic deposition : the dry LAGP and LATP particles subj ected to the previous activation step are immersed in the auto-catalytic deposition solution; the particles are then subj ected to a dispersion procedure within the auto-catalytic deposition solution using an ultrasonic bath for a duration of 10 min . The auto-catalytic deposition solution in which the particles are di spersed is placed in a water bath at the optimi zed temperature of 50 a 80 ° C . The ultrasonic bath, used during the auto-catalytic deposition, guarantees the correct dispersion of the particles during said deposition .
The LATP and/or LAGP particles , as they are and coated according to the procedure described, are then used for the production of supercapacitor electrodes .
In order to obtain electrodes with a high speci fic surface and perfectly integrated with the solid state electrolyte , the particles of LATP and/or LAGP coated with the metal material through auto-catalytic deposition are mixed together with the same uncoated starting material , thus
obtaining a structure with the particles with metallic coating in contact , forming a three- dimensional network inserted inside the solid electrolyte .
The percentage in weight of said coated particles , necessary to obtain a conductive network (within a single electrode ) varies from 20% to 90% ; the final quantity necessary for the construction of the electrode depends on the average si ze of the initial substrate on which the auto-catalytic deposition procedure is carried out , and on its agglomeration state . The percentage in weight between coated material and untreated material to be mixed can be varied with the aim of optimi zing the conductivity of the electrode .
Generally, a percentage of about 70% by weight of coated nanoparticles , inserted into the mixture , has led to optimal results , i . e . a compromise between good conductivity and increased capacity linked to surface development .
Once the mixed material has been obtained, it can be subj ected to a sintering heat treatment in order to consolidate the single electrode and increase the ionic conductivity of the solid
electrolyte .
The high surface development of the nanoparticles constituting the substrate makes it possible to obtain electrodes with a very high specific surface, which results in an increase in the capacity of the devices.
In Figure 1 (a) , (1) designates said mixture consisting of coated particles and uncoated particles. The coated and agglomerated LATP and/or LAGP particles constitute a conductive network (2) , while the uncoated and agglomerated LATP and/or LAGP particles constitute the ionic conductor (3) . The conductive network (2) and the ionic conductor (3) constitute the electrodes of a capacitor.
By coupling two electrodes (1) like the one described with a layer (4) consisting of only the uncoated ionic conductor (FIG. 1 (b) ) , an overall system can be obtained which can be assimilated to two capacitors connected in series with each other.
This system just described constitutes a supercapacitor cell, according to the invention.
