Description

It is a kind of to use liquid metal gallium for the aluminium ion battery of cathode
Technical field
It uses liquid metal gallium for the aluminium ion battery of cathode the present invention relates to a kind of, belongs to field of electrochemical batteries, have Body can get without dendrite, aluminium ion battery cathode anticorrosive, can be recycled, and finally obtain the long-life, high-energy density, The extensive energy storage of safety and stability or automobile power aluminium ion battery.
Background technique
With the continuous reduction of the non-regeneration energies such as petroleum, coal, natural gas, and its caused by environmental problem highlight, It develops and becomes current research hotspot using reproducible green novel energy source.Wherein, electric energy is undoubtedly a kind of clean, and The important energy source of number of ways (such as waterpower, wind-force, solar energy) collection can be used.However, the collection process of electric energy often companion With intermittent, noncontinuity process, it is therefore necessary to be stored in secondary cell, realize persistently answering for electric energy with this With.
In the past few decades, lead-acid accumulator is because cheap, easily fabricated and be widely used, however its energy Metric density is low, and pollution problem caused by old and useless battery is serious;Therefore, energy density height, the lesser lithium-ion electric of environmental pollution Pond is developed rapidly.However, lithium content is less in the earth's crust, and lithium battery is easy to happen on fire, explosion during military service Equal danger, therefore develop the research hotspot that novel secondary cell system is the current field.
In contrast, there are a large amount of aluminium elements in the earth's crust, and aluminium itself has excellent theoretical energy density (2980mAh g-1, 8040mA h cm-3), while will not be occurred based on room temperature aluminium chloride-inorganic salt system aluminium ion battery Burning and explosion.Therefore, aluminium ion battery be expected to become next-generation, low cost, can large-scale application secondary cell system.Thing In reality, the research about aluminium ion battery has been achieved for tremendous development, and it is flat to have developed serial high capacity density, high work The positive electrode (such as pyrolytic graphite, nickel sulfide, copper sulfide, tellurium, selenium) of platform.Meanwhile about novel flexible, wide temperature, wide electricity The aluminium ion battery electrolytic solution of gesture window is also evolving.However, the negative electrode material of battery but there is no excessive concern, Still using metallic aluminium as cathode.Although aluminum honeycomb is low in cost, theoretical duty density is high, however it is in cyclic process, because Burn into dendrite problems caused by nonuniform deposition/dissolution of aluminium are serious, and eventually lead to cathode powdered, battery permanent failure. In addition, the aluminum honeycomb of powdered can not utilize again, the waste of metallic aluminium is ultimately caused.
Summary of the invention
Based on the studies above background, the present invention proposes a kind of aluminium ion battery for using liquid metal gallium as cathode.Liquid Gallium cathode will not generate dendrite in cyclic process, will not corrode, while the gallium cathode after circulation can follow again Ring utilizes.To achieve the above object, the present invention the following technical schemes are provided:
It is a kind of to use liquid metal gallium for the aluminium ion battery of cathode, it is characterised in that include purity 99.9%- 99.999% liquid gallium cathode, anode, aluminium chloride and inorganic acid salt electrolyte and the as the case may be diaphragm of choosing.Liquid State gallium is placed directly within battery bottom as cathode, or is placed in crucible as cathode.Using solid-state conductive material as liquid State gallium negative lug.Charging process, aluminium ion are reduced to aluminium atom and dissolve diffuse into liquid gallium in liquid gallium negative terminal surface Body phase, discharge process, the aluminium atom being dissolved in liquid gallium, which diffuses to gallium surface and is oxidized to aluminium ion, enters electrolyte.Charge and discharge Piezoelectric voltage range 0.1-2.4V, current density range 0.01-10Ag-1
The crucible can be corundum, quartz, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), polyvinyl chloride, polypropylene or the glass earthenware of side-wall hole Crucible, electrolyte are contacted by the hole of crucible wall with cathode liquid gallium.
The conduction tab is the inactive wires of high-melting-points, chemical property such as molybdenum, nickel, copper, tungsten, zirconium, hafnium, platinum, titanium Or graphite rod, and its conduction will be made in the wire or graphite rod insertion liquid gallium cathode.
The anode can be carbonaceous material (graphite, carbon paper, pyrolytic graphite), two dimensional oxidation object (copper oxide, nickel oxide, Zinc oxide etc.) or sulfide material (molybdenum sulfide, titanium sulfide, nickel sulfide, tungsten sulfide, cobalt sulfide, zinc sulphide etc.), metal chloride One of (nickel chloride, copper chloride etc.) material.
Aluminium chloride purity is greater than 95% in the electrolyte, and inorganic acid salt is 1- butyl -3- methylimidazolium chloride, 1- third One of base -3- methylimidazolium chloride, 1- ethyl-3-methylimidazole chloride, sodium chloride, lithium chloride, potassium chloride etc..
The aluminium chloride and inorganic acid salt molar ratio is 1:1~3:1.
The selection of the diaphragm specifically: when interpolar is away from being greater than 5mm between positive and negative electrode, and battery is not need mobile storage When energy battery, it may be unnecessary to diaphragm;When interpolar needs to add diaphragm away from being less than when 5mm or battery need mobile between positive and negative electrode, Diaphragm material can be glass fibre, or polypropylene micropore diaphragm.
Aluminium ion battery relative to tradition using aluminum metal as cathode, the present invention using liquid gallium as cathode, gained aluminium from Sub- battery has many advantages, such as to have extended cycle life, energy density is high, safety and stability.
Compared with the existing technology, beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:
1) Al dendrite, will not be generated in cathode cyclic process, reduces the risk of internal short-circuit of battery;
2), etching problem is not present in cathode, its effective affecting acreage will not change in cyclic process, therefore can be effective Improve the cyclical stability of battery;
3) the gallium cathode after, recycling can be recycled further, therefore can reduce the cost of battery, reduce metallic aluminium Waste.
