Description

Water system zinc-tellurium secondary battery
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of secondary batteries, and particularly relates to a zinc-tellurium-based water system secondary battery.
Background
The increasingly severe situation of energy and environment situation brings great examination to human survival, and the new energy industry is accelerated to be cultivated and developed, so that the method is an urgent task of effectively relieving energy and environment pressure and promoting sustainable development, and is a strategic measure for accelerating transformation and upgrading of industry and cultivating new economic growth points and international competitive advantages. Lithium ion batteries have now largely monopolized the market share of consumer electronics batteries and are also marching towards more valuable electric vehicles. Unfortunately, however, lithium ion batteries have the problem of flammability and explosiveness due to their own electrochemical mechanism and limitation of materials used, which makes them unsatisfactory for many fields where safety and stability applications are emphasized, such as implant devices, large-scale energy storage, and special military applications. Although the energy density of the water-based battery is lower than that of the lithium ion battery, the higher safety of the water-based battery makes the water-based battery inevitably occupy a place in a future energy storage system. Although lead-acid battery systems are typical water-based batteries, mature in technology and low in cost, the problems of high pollution and high toxicity are in conflict with the future green development requirements of the country. Breaking the traditional mode, the development of a low-cost and high-performance water-based battery system based on new concepts and technologies is urgent.
As is well known, the zinc cathode integrates the advantages of low cost, large storage capacity, high volume specific capacity, high safety, high stability and the like, and occupies an irreplaceable position in the application of human electrochemical energy storage devices. Textbooks generally represent a human advance in electrochemical energy storage from the original voltaic stack, luxron Xie Dianchi, daniel cells to the widely used zinc-silver, zinc-air and zinc-manganese cell systems. With the continuous importance on the effective utilization of resources, green safety and environmental protection, the water-based zinc-based battery is on the stage of history again, and is actively concerned and reviewed by scientific research personnel. However, the electrochemical window of the aqueous electrolyte is narrow (1.23V), which limits the selection range of the anode of the aqueous zinc-based battery system and has very limited battery output voltage. However, the energy density of the energy storage device is not only dependent on the output voltage, but also has a direct relationship with the specific capacity of the system. Because the theoretical specific capacity of the metal zinc is higher (the specific capacity is 821mAh/g, and the specific capacity is 5862 mAh/g), the exploration of a novel high-capacity and high-stability anode material is very important for improving the energy density. Developed countries in the United states, english, japan, etc. have developed a great deal of early-stage exploratory applications in this field, and are relatively backward in China. The layout of a new system is carried out in advance, and the control points of the basic research on robbery and the industrial innovation are the key points for keeping the energy fight ahead in decades of the future in China.
In recent years, chalcogen elements such as oxygen, sulfur, selenium and tellurium have received great attention in the field of electrochemical energy storage, and particularly with the deep development of metal-oxygen, metal-sulfur batteries and other systems, the advantage of high capacity is fully embodied, and the energy density upper limit of electrochemical energy storage devices is expected to be impacted. The simple substances of sulfur, selenium and tellurium are solid, the valence states in corresponding compounds are very rich, the maximum valence state can reach +6, and the sulfur, selenium and tellurium have potential multi-electron transfer characteristics. Although the potential of the sulfur, selenium and tellurium compounds with negative valence states is lower, the potential interval with high valence states is expected to be suitable for an aqueous electrolyte system. If a reversible transition between valence states can be achieved, it is of great value for developing a high-capacity aqueous positive electrode material. Tellurium is more conductive (2X 10) than sulfur and selenium 2 S/m), the corresponding orthovalent compound is more stable (especially tellurium dioxide), provides the basis for a reversible electrochemical faradaic process, and is more suitable for application in aqueous zinc batteries. Tellurium-based positive electrode materials have been reported in lithium batteries (adv. Energy mater.2015,5,1401999, j. Mater.chem.a 2014,2, 12201), but mainly utilize an electrochemical process between tellurium (charged state) and lithium telluride (discharged state) in a negative valence interval, the mechanism is similar to that of a lithium-sulfur battery, and the corresponding reaction potential interval is far away from the potential window of an aqueous battery. The basic research on the electrochemical reaction of the tellurium-based compound in a water system is started in the last century, but the attention and the intensive research are not paid to the field of batteries, and at present, no report is made on the application of the electrochemical energy storage of the tellurium-based material in a positive valence state interval.
