Description

Hexagonal prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide precursor and preparation method thereof, hexagonal prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide and application thereof
Technical Field

Background
Lithium Ion Batteries (LIBs) have been recognized as the most important energy storage systems in portable electronic products and automobiles. With the increasing demand for miniaturization of electrochemical energy storage devices, the development of high energy density LIBs has become an urgent task. The performance of lithium ion batteries depends to a large extent on the intrinsic properties of the electrode material. At present, the traditional carbonaceous electrode is close to the theoretical capacity limit (372mAh/g) and the development space is limited. Over the last decade, Transition Metal Oxides (TMOs), such as Fe2O3、Fe3O4、CoO、Co3O4、NiO、MnO2And the like, which are receiving wide attention due to high theoretical specific capacity, abundant reserves and high tap density. Wherein, Co3O4Is one of the most promising cathode materials, has the theoretical specific capacity of 890mAh/g, high corrosion resistance and good chemical stability.
However, Co3O4The inherent problems of which have hindered their use. One is that substantial volume changes result in severe pulverization of the electrode during lithiation/delithiation. On the other hand, Co3O4Has inherently low electron conductivity, resulting in lower rate performance. The existence of these problems directly leads to Co3O4Deterioration of reversible capacity and cycle life. Increasing Co3O4The most intuitive and common strategy for electrochemical performance of electrodes is to fabricate nanostructures. Based on these, various Co3O4Nanostructures, such as nanospheres, nanorods, nanotubes, nanowires, nanosheets, nanocubes, were successfully synthesized. These nanostructures have been shown to be effective in shortening the diffusion distance of lithium ions and mitigating severe volume changes during lithiation/delithiation. Furthermore, due to their large specific surface area, it will also provide more redox active sites and increase the surface pseudocapacitance effect, which helps to increase Co3O4The rate capability of (2). However, these nanomaterials also suffer from disadvantages such as loss of particle contact during charge/discharge, and conductive network breakdown due to agglomeration effects. Furthermore, Co3O4The nanostructures of (a) directly result in a severe loss in volumetric energy density for electrochemical energy storage applications.
In view of this, the present application is specifically made.

Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below. The examples, in which specific conditions are not specified, were conducted under conventional conditions or conditions recommended by the manufacturer. The reagents or instruments used are not indicated by the manufacturer, and are all conventional products available commercially.
The embodiment of the invention provides a hexagonal prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide precursor and a preparation method thereof, and hexagonal prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide and application thereof, wherein the hexagonal prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide precursor is used as a precursor for preparing the hexagonal prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide, and the hexagonal prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide precursor and the preparation method of the hexagonal prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide are explained in detail in the application.
In one aspect, the present application provides a hexagonal prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide precursor, and a preparation method thereof, including:
dissolving soluble cobalt salt, a plasticizer and a precipitator in water and carrying out hydrothermal reaction. After the reaction is finished, carrying out solid-liquid separation to obtain the hexagonal prism cobaltosic oxide precursor. Specifically, at room temperature, firstly, dissolving soluble cobalt salt in water, obtaining pink liquid after the soluble cobalt salt is uniformly dispersed, then adding a plasticizer and a precipitator, and continuously dissolving, wherein the solution is pink transparent. Transferring the uniformly mixed liquid to hydrothermal equipment, such as a reaction kettle adopted in the application, putting the liquid into an oven, carrying out hydrothermal reaction for 4-8h at 50-300 ℃, taking out and cooling to room temperature. And performing solid-liquid separation to obtain pink powder, and preparing a hexagonal prism cobaltosic oxide precursor.
In the embodiment, the molar ratio of the soluble cobalt salt to the plasticizer to the precipitator is (1-5) to (3-7) to (3-9), and the soluble cobalt salt is selected from at least one of cobalt salts containing nitrate radicals, preferably cobalt nitrate hexahydrate; the plasticizer is selected from the group consisting of F ions and NH4 +At least one of ionic compounds, preferably ammonium fluoride; the precipitate is at least one selected from compounds containing ammonium ions, preferably urea. Mixing soluble cobalt salt, a plasticizer and a precipitator for hydrothermal reaction, and carrying out solid-liquid separation on the generated precipitate to obtain the product, namely the hexagonal prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide precursorThe grain diameter of the prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide precursor is 2-4 mu m.
In the present application, by controlling the molar ratio of the reactants, a hexagonal prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide precursor having a specific shape (hexagonal prism shape) can be generated during the hydrothermal reaction (specifically, in the present embodiment, the hexagonal prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide precursor is cobalt hydroxide fluoride having a chemical formula of co (oh) F), the molar ratio of the soluble cobalt salt, the plasticizer and the precipitant can affect the process of the mixing reaction of the soluble cobalt salt, the plasticizer and the precipitant, and in this embodiment, selecting the mol ratio of the soluble cobalt salt to the plasticizer to the precipitator as (1-5): (3-7): (3-9), the molar ratio of the reactants is different from the reported reactant ratio, the prepared Co (OH) F is mainly nano-wires or irregular particles reported in the literature, and the cobaltosic oxide with the corresponding morphology formed after further calcination treatment has no special characteristics in the aspect of lithium storage. However, when the molar ratio is too large, the Co (OH) F can generate serious agglomeration effect in the nucleation process to form irregular granular products, and when the molar ratio of the reactants is too small, the Co (OH) F can not grow further after the nucleation, so that micron-sized single-crystal hexagonal prism-shaped Co (OH) F can not be obtained. The appropriate molar ratio is therefore critical for the formation of hexagonal prism-like Co (OH) F.
In addition, the temperature and the time of the hydrothermal reaction can ensure that the cobalt nitrate hexahydrate, the ammonium fluoride and the urea react completely. The water in this application includes, but is not limited to, ultrapure water, pure water, distilled water, deionized water, etc., and preferably, the ultrapure water is selected for dissolving the cobalt nitrate hexahydrate, ammonium fluoride, and urea in this embodiment. In this embodiment, ultrasonic dispersion is used to assist the cobalt nitrate hexahydrate in dissolving, so that the cobalt nitrate hexahydrate is dispersed more uniformly. Specifically, the frequency of ultrasonic dispersion is 50-300 Hz; the ultrasonic dispersion time is 5-60 min. It is understood that in other embodiments of the present application, the mixing may also be performed by other means, such as stirring, shaking, etc.
The hexagonal prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide precursor obtained by the above preparation method has a specific hexagonal prism shape, and can be used as a precursor for preparing hexagonal prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide.
In a second aspect, the application also provides hexagonal prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide, which is prepared by calcining the hexagonal prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide precursor at the temperature of 100-800 ℃ for 0.5-5 h.
The hexagonal prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide is prepared by adopting the specific precursor, and the mass ratio of the trivalent cobalt to the divalent cobalt on the surface of the obtained hexagonal prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide is 1.41-2.11, preferably 1.58-1.94, and more preferably 1.76. In the prior art, the content ratio of trivalent cobalt to divalent cobalt in conventional cobaltosic oxide is about 1, and it can be seen that the content ratio of trivalent cobalt to divalent cobalt in the present application is significantly higher than that in the prior art, which shows that the hexagonal prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide provided by the present application is a material rich in trivalent cobalt, and the increase of the content of high valence cobalt is beneficial to increase the specific capacity of cobaltosic oxide in a lithium battery, and the increase of high valence cobalt also causes the increase of oxygen vacancies inside the cobaltosic oxide material, and the increase of oxygen vacancies can significantly increase the conductivity of the material, thereby improving the first-turn coulombic efficiency of cobaltosic oxide. Compared with the existing commercial cobaltosic oxide, the rate capability and the long cycle capability are obviously improved, and more importantly, the cobaltosic oxide has higher pseudo-capacitance effect and obviously increases the reaction kinetics.
The hexagonal-prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide in the embodiment has a micro-nano hierarchical structure, and is decomposed into porous cobaltosic oxide through hexagonal-prism-shaped co (oh) F during calcination, and the hexagonal-prism-shaped structure is maintained. Specifically, the hexagonal prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide has a hexagonal prism-shaped microstructure, the grain size of the hexagonal prism-shaped microstructure is 2-4 μm, and preferably, nanopores are distributed on the top surface and/or the bottom surface of the hexagonal prism-shaped microstructure; preferably, the size of the nanopores is 30-100 nm. Nano spherical bulges are distributed on the side surface of the hexagonal prism-shaped micro structure; preferably, the size of the nano-spherical protrusions is 50-200 nm.
In the present application, the porous roughness structure formed by calcination greatly increases the hexagonal prism shapeThe specific surface area of the cobaltosic oxide can provide more redox active sites and increase the surface pseudocapacitance effect, thereby improving the Co3O4The rate capability of (2).
The hexagonal prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide provided by the application can be widely applied to the lithium ion battery with high energy density, and has potential good economic benefits.
The preparation method of the hexagonal-prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide precursor is simple, and by controlling the molar ratio of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate, ammonium fluoride and urea, wherein the ammonium fluoride is used as a plasticizer, and the urea is used as a precipitator, the prepared cobalt fluoride hydroxide is hexagonal-prism-shaped, and the prepared cobalt fluoride hydroxide is calcined as a precursor to obtain the hexagonal-prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide. The hexagonal prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide can be widely used in lithium ion batteries with high energy density, and has potential good economic benefit.

Comparative examples 1 to 2
Comparative examples 1 and 2 provide a hexagonal prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide precursor, which is prepared substantially in the same manner as in example 1, except that:
in comparative example 1, the molar ratio of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate, ammonium fluoride and urea was 1: 8: 10.
in comparative example 2, the molar ratio of cobalt nitrate hexahydrate, ammonium fluoride and urea was 1: 2: 2.
referring to FIG. 9, when the molar ratio of the reactants is too large, the Co (OH) F will cause serious agglomeration effect during the nucleation process, and form irregular granular products. Referring to fig. 10, when the molar ratio of the reactants is too small, co (oh) F cannot grow further after nucleation, and thus micron-sized single-crystal hexagonal-prism-shaped co (oh) F cannot be obtained.
In summary, the preparation method of the hexagonal-prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide precursor provided by the application is simple, the hexagonal-prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide precursor can be prepared by controlling the molar ratio of the soluble cobalt salt, the plasticizer and the precipitator, and the hexagonal-prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide precursor is obtained by calcining the precursor. The hexagonal prism-shaped cobaltosic oxide can be widely used in lithium ion batteries with high energy density, and has potential good economic benefit.
