Description

Preparation method of hierarchical porous carbon aerogel for lithium ion battery cathode
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of lithium ion battery cathode materials, in particular to a preparation method of a hierarchical porous structure carbon aerogel as a lithium ion battery cathode material.
Background
With the continuous development of modern society, the excessive consumption of fossil energy and the serious environmental pollution caused by the accelerated consumption of fossil energy are more and more emphasized by people, so that the development and utilization of cleaner and greener energy sources such as wind energy, solar energy, biological energy and the like are urgently needed, and meanwhile, battery storage equipment with excellent cycle performance and large capacity is also needed to convert and store the energy sources. In addition, the electric vehicle needs a battery with good enough cycle performance and high enough energy density to provide power; the continuous upgrade of mobile electronic devices also places higher demands on the performance of batteries. Since the commercialization of lithium ion batteries as new high-efficiency energy storage devices, power foundations have been provided for many electronic devices such as smart phones and notebook computers, but development bottlenecks are gradually emerging, and how to further improve specific capacity, improve cycle stability, prolong service life, improve safety performance and reduce cost becomes a current major concern.
The capacity of a lithium ion battery is mainly limited by its positive and negative electrode materials. The cathode industrialized material mainly comprises graphite carbon materials, and the materials have good conductivity, good cycling stability and low cost, so the materials always occupy the leading position of the commercialized cathode materials. However, the theoretical specific capacity of the graphite material is lower (374 mAh.g)-1) And because the redox potential of the de-intercalated lithium is low, lithium precipitation is easy to occur on the surface in the charging and discharging process, lithium dendrite is generated, the cycle stability is influenced, and even a diaphragm can be penetrated to cause short circuit, so that the safety performance of the battery is greatly reduced. Therefore, the development of a novel lithium ion battery cathode material with high energy density and high power density is a hot spot of current research.
Research indicates that the synergistic effect of different pore diameters and different particle sizes of the porous carbon material with the hierarchical pore diameter structure is beneficial to improving the lithium storage performance of the active electrode. During charging and discharging of the battery, Li+The graphite microcrystalline region of porous carbon can be embedded and then stored in abundant micropores, and the small-size micropores can effectively increase the contact area of an active substance and electrolyte and increase lithium storage active sites; the mesopores can be used as Li+The transmission channel of (2) can also promote the permeation of the electrolyte; the presence of the macroporous structure greatly mitigates the effect of volume expansion during cycling. Therefore, compared with the graphite-based material,the porous carbon has better application prospect.
The carbon aerogel material is an amorphous porous carbon material containing rich microporous structures, has high porosity and large specific surface area, and is widely researched and applied in the fields of supercapacitors, electric adsorption, fuel cells and the like. The preparation of the carbon aerogel generally comprises the steps of condensing resorcinol and formaldehyde serving as precursors into organic wet gel under the action of alkalescent catalysts such as sodium carbonate and the like, and then aging, drying, carbonizing and the like to prepare the carbon aerogel. Under the alkalescent catalysis condition, the organic condensation reaction rate is low, the strength of the obtained organogel framework is not high, and the obtained organogel framework is easy to have obvious volume shrinkage in the subsequent drying and carbonization processes, so that the density and hardness of the carbon aerogel material are high, the application is difficult, the pore diameter of the carbon aerogel material is mainly micropores and mesopores (the micropore size is less than 1nm, and the mesopore diameter is 2-50 nm) with small sizes, although the carbon aerogel material has a high specific surface, the utilization rate is not high, and the application of the carbon aerogel material in the aspect of lithium ion battery cathodes is greatly limited. Resorcinol: when the molar ratio of formaldehyde is 1:2, the specific capacity of the lithium ion battery prepared from the carbon aerogel prepared by using a weakly alkaline catalyst such as sodium carbonate is about 120mAh/g under the condition of 0.2C constant current charge and discharge, and the specific capacity of the lithium ion battery is attenuated after about 50 cycles. In the process of drying the organogel, in order to reduce the influence of surface tension, a supercritical drying or freeze drying technology is mostly used, the process is complex, and the cost is high; if the method adopts normal pressure drying, the shrinkage generated in the carbonization process is more serious, and finally the prepared carbon aerogel has high density and large volume density, and a large amount of pore structures disappear, thereby losing application value.

The prepared carbon aerogel material had a larger pore size compared to example 1.
The carbon aerogel prepared in example 2 was tested according to the method described in experiment 1, and the results were: under the condition of 0.2C constant current charge and discharge, the specific capacity of the first loop is 500mAh/g, the specific capacity is 150mAh/g, and the first loop can still keep stable after 1000 cycles. Therefore, although the specific capacity is slightly lower than that of example 1, the cycle stability performance is significantly better than that of example 1.
Comparative example 1, the "0.1M HCl solution 0.5mL, deionized water 7.05 mL" in step 1) of example 1 was changed to "0.1M HCl solution 2mL, deionized water 5.55 mL", and the rest was identical to example 1.
In the step 3), after the formaldehyde solution is added, the mixed solution releases heat obviously, the gelling time is short (about 2-3 minutes), the hardness of the organic gel is high, and the organic gel shrinks remarkably after being carbonized. The microstructure is shown in FIG. 5.
In fig. 5, carbon particles are tightly packed and micropores are rich, but the prepared carbon aerogel block has high density, no large-size pores, high hardness and high grinding difficulty, and the negative electrode material prepared by the method in experiment 1 has high surface roughness and poor uniformity after being coated and dried on copper foil.
The carbon aerogel prepared in comparative example 1 was tested according to the method described in experiment 1, and the results were: the specific capacity is lower in the charge and discharge test of the lithium ion battery, the cycle performance is poor, the capacity is continuously attenuated to a small extent along with the increase of the cycle times, and after about 400 cycles, the specific capacity is attenuated to 50mAh/g from 75 mAh/g.

Comparative example 3, the amount of polyethylene oxide (Mn ═ 2000) used in step 2) of example 2 was changed from "0.2 g" to "1.0 g", and the rest was the same as in example 2.
In the step 2), a uniform solution can be formed after adding formaldehyde, but dark red hard precipitate is slowly formed at the bottom in the gelling process, so that the gel is obviously layered, the organic gel has non-uniform color, and the organic gel is easy to crack after carbonization. The microstructure of the prepared carbon aerogel material is shown in figure 8.
In fig. 8, the uniformity of particle size is poor, the large pores formed by the framework are filled and blocked by a large number of small particles, the structure controllability is poor, and the porosity is not high. Therefore, it cannot be used for preparing a lithium ion battery anode.
Comparative example 4, the "open air at 45 ℃ in the forced air drying oven at atmospheric pressure 2 d" in step 4) of example 2 was changed to "use CO" as described in the conventional technique2Supercritical drying ", the rest is equivalent to example 2.
