Abstract
本发明公开了一种柔性锌-空气电池凝胶电解质及其制备方法和应用,该凝胶电解质包括以下质量份数的组分:丙烯酰胺10~30份,交联剂0.1~0.5份,粘性长链高分子0.1~30份,电解质10~70份,光引发剂0.2~2份,水100份,丙烯酰胺、交联剂、粘性长链高分子、电解质、光引发剂和水共同形成凝胶电解质。本发明通过互穿网络结构体系设计,添加长链粘性高分子,调控水凝胶材料的柔弹性,得到具有柔弹性和粘性且偏中性的紫外光固化水凝胶电解质,将其应用于柔性锌-空气电池后,有效解决了传统碱性电解质由于电解液泄露、腐蚀性强而影响电池寿命、容量和安全性的问题。
Description
本发明属于锌-空气电池技术领域,具体涉及一种柔性锌-空气电池凝胶电解质及其制备方法和应用。
作为柔性电子器件的动力源,柔性、高效的能量存储设备是各类器件的核心组件之一,生产可靠安全的柔性储能设备十分必要。当前,只有薄膜锂电池(厚度<1mm)商业化并用于卡式和可穿戴设备;但是,由于锂电池材料对空气和湿度敏感,高阻隔封装会严重影响其体积效率和柔韧性,且其电解液不具有生物相容性,并不是可穿戴电子产品动力源的最佳候选者之一。
相比之下,金属锌由于具有环境友好、低成本、比金属锂稳定性高、原材料丰富便于存储等天然优势,柔性的锌基电池被认为是替代用于可穿戴电子设备的柔性锂电池的最有效方法之一。其中,锌-空气电池池因其低廉的成本、环境友好性和较高的理论能量密度被认为是极具发展潜力的新型储能器件之一。但传统的含水电解质存在不能保持稳定形状和有效隔离电极以防止短路等问题,不能满足柔性锌-空气电池的商业化要求。为了兼具柔性和安全性,基于聚合物凝胶的框架和官能团提供相对良好的机械性能,聚合物胶凝剂与相应的含水电解质组成的聚合物凝胶电解质已经被研究并用于柔性的锌基电池中。
目前,大部分全固态锌空气电池的电解质为碱性有机凝胶电解质,其原理是将碱性水溶液包裹在有机凝胶中。但是由于锌-空气电池为半开放系统, 空气中的CO
2等酸性气体可以直接与有机凝胶电解质接触并反应导致其电导率下降,使电池性能降低;同时,有机凝胶电解质与金属锌电极会发生反应,电解质中的碱性水溶液长期放置或工作中会造成电解质失水干涸,电池变形,严重影响电池的容量和寿命;而且,碱性电解质被应用于可穿戴电子设备时,对人体构成潜在的危险,最终导致锌-空气电池商业化仍具有不可忽视的挑战。因此,开发中性电解质的全固态锌-空气电池能够规避这些潜在的危险,将其应用于可穿戴电子设备领域具有更为广阔的市场前景。
发明内容

以下通过多个实施例来举例说明上述技术方案。
1.凝胶电解质及其制备方法实施例
实施例11
本实施例提供了一种柔性锌-空气电池凝胶电解质,包括以下质量份数的组分:
丙烯酰胺15份,交联剂即聚乙二醇二丙烯酸脂0.5份,粘性长链高分子即聚环氧乙烷2份,电解质即30份的三氟甲磺酸锂和30份三氟甲磺酸锌,光引发剂即2-羟基-2-甲基-1-苯基-1-丙酮(1173)0.5份,水为100份,所述丙烯酰胺、交联剂、粘性长链高分子、电解质、光引发剂和水共同形成凝胶电解质。

S2,将30份的三氟甲磺酸锂和30份三氟甲磺酸锌加入所述S1的混合溶液中,搅拌至完全溶解得到水凝胶;
S3,将0.5份的2-羟基-2-甲基-1-苯基-1-丙酮(1173)加入所述S2的水凝胶中,超声10分钟,倒入深度约为1mm的模具,通过紫外灯曝光2分钟,如图1所示,形成偏中性固态水凝胶电解质层。
对比例11
本对比例与实施例11中柔性锌-空气电池凝胶电解质的组分和制备方法基本相当,不同的是,本对比例的柔性锌-空气电池凝胶电解质不加入粘性长链高分子即聚环氧乙烷。
本发明对实施例11和对比例11的水凝胶电解质进行了粘附力测试,如图2所示,对比例11的水凝胶电解质凝胶粘附力相对于实施例11的样品减小一倍,不利于电极与凝胶的界面结合。
2.凝胶电解质的应用即柔性锌-空气电池实施例
实施例21
本实施例提供一种柔性锌-空气电池凝胶电解质的应用,即将实施例11的柔性锌-空气凝胶电解质应用于锌-空气电池,如图3所示。
本实施例先进行电极的制备,即采用0.08mm厚的锌箔作为反应层锌阳极层1;采用涂布法将Co
3O
4/C浆料作为催化剂层22涂覆在柔性导电基体21及导电布一侧,干燥后作为空气阴极层2。
然后进行器件的制备,如图3和图4所示,具体为将电极和实施例11得到的凝胶电解质层直接叠加组装成三明治结构柔性电池。
本发明对得到的柔性电池进行了性能测试,即使用万用表及蓝电测试系统对实施例21的柔性电池进行了在室温环境下电性能测试:
实施例21得到的柔性电池性能较好。如图5所示,作为供电性能,柔性电池的开路电压约1.0V和短路电流密度约35mA/cm
2,可循环充放电约120小时。如图6所示,三条串联可同时驱动20颗LED灯,并且弯曲时LED的亮度不会改变。
以上所述,仅为本发明较佳的具体实施方式,但本发明的保护范围并不局限于此,任何熟悉本技术领域的技术人员在本发明揭露的技术范围内,可轻易想到的变化或替换,都应涵盖在本发明的保护范围之内。因此,本发明的保护范围应该以权利要求的保护范围为准。
