Description

Preparation method of low-temperature flexible zinc ion battery
Field of materials
The technology belongs to the field of electrolyte of a water-system zinc ion battery, and relates to a preparation method of antifreeze electrolyte of a water-system flexible zinc ion battery containing a low-temperature additive and the battery.
Background
Along with the rapid development of modern science and technology, more and more flexible wearable products are developed to satisfy the more convenient daily life demand of people, this has promoted the rapid development of flexible battery. To meet the use requirements of flexible wearable devices, the safety and durability of the flexible battery need to be ensured, and high energy density is maintained. The organic electrolyte used by the lithium ion battery has great potential safety hazard due to the flammability. Aqueous zinc batteries are a promising alternative to lithium ion batteries due to their good safety and high energy density. The high ionic conductivity of the water system electrolyte enables the battery to have good rate capability; and, it is simple in operation environment and easier to realize high durability than a lithium ion battery. In addition, the soft and elastic hydrogel electrolyte provides a durable characteristic for the flexible battery, and the mechanical property of the soft polymer network structure can absorb and disperse the stress generated by the battery in use and can bear the severe mechanical deformation of the battery for a long time. However, since the freezing point of water is high so that the water-based battery is difficult to use at low temperature, the electrolyte will freeze so that the electrolyte resistance increases sharply and the capacity decreases; failure of the polymer network, mechanical deformation of the battery, loss of toughness and elasticity of the flexible battery.
Hong Kong City university (Energy)&Environmental Science,2019,12(2):706-715) prepares an EG-waPUA/PAM hydrogel electrolyte by fixing ethylene glycol molecules on a PAM polymer network through a series of complex processes, wherein hydrogen bonds formed by the polymer and water can fix water molecules, and the hydrogel has obvious frost resistance and long-term stability at the temperature of-20 ℃. Harbin university of industry (battieries)&Supercaps,2021,4(10):1627-4A hybrid battery. The use of the double-layer electrolyte well meets the working mechanism of the hybrid battery and is close to LiFePO4One side of the cathode is provided with Li+Zn is provided close to one side of the Zn anode2+The cell was able to operate at-20 ℃. But the complex synthesis flow of gel is greatly limitedThe commercial application of the battery is made; a concentrated double salt solution (2M ZnSO) was prepared at the German university of Deleston Industrial Materials (Advanced Functional Materials,2020,30(6):1907218)4And 4M LiCl, abbreviated as ZL-PAM) assembles a flexible antifreeze Zn/LiFePO4Battery, hydrated cation Zn2+And Li+) The synergistic effect of (A) reduces the freezing temperature of ZL-PAM; the antifreeze self-healing polymer gel electrolyte (AF-SH-CPAM) was prepared directly by in situ polymerization in a water/ethylene glycol solution of acrylamide monomer at the university of Beijing university of Physician (nergy Storage Materials,2022,44: 517-526). The flexible antifreeze Zn-MnO hydrogel is developed by using borax cross-linked PVA/glycerol (PVA-B-G) hydrogel as an electrolyte, and is used at Nanjing university of Materials Chemistry A,2020,8(14):6828-2A battery. The product is a glycerol/salt solution (2M ZnSO) added with borax4And 0.2MMnSO4) A binary solvent of (a). The ethylene glycol can inhibit the water molecules from freezing and dynamically adjust the molecular interaction between the polymer chain and the water, and simultaneously realize the freezing resistance and the self-healing of the electrolyte. As rich hydrogen bonds are formed among PVA, glycerol and water molecules, an integrated three-dimensional network is constructed, the transmission of ions is promoted, and the freezing point of electrolyte is reduced. Too high a concentration of salt will cause irreversible damage to the gel network and as the temperature is lowered, the solubility of the salt decreases, and precipitation on the gel surface will occur.
Based on the above, the invention provides a preparation method of the antifreeze hydrogel electrolyte with low salt concentration and simple preparation process, and the hydrogel electrolyte can still keep a soft state at minus dozens of degrees.
Disclosure of Invention

The invention provides a preparation method of a flexible antifreeze electrolyte, which comprises the following raw materials in percentage by volume:
electrolyte: 0.5-2M fluorine-containing zinc salt;
solvent: 20-60 vol% water; 80-40 vol% of an ester additive;
polymer network: PAM
Photoinitiator (2): 1 to 2% mol
A crosslinking agent: 0.02-0.04% mol
The principle of the invention is as follows:
ester additives with hydrophilic groups and PAM are combined with water of the electrolyte through hydrogen bonds to fix free water molecules, so that the number of hydrogen bonds formed between the free water molecules is reduced, and the aim of reducing the freezing point of the electrolyte is fulfilled. The polymer network provided by the PAM provides a channel for ion transmission, and the reduction speed of the ionic conductivity at low temperature is reduced. The added ester additive interacts with groups on a polymer network, so that the van der Waals force among polymer molecules is weakened, the mobility of polymer molecular chains is increased, and the ionic conductivity of the electrolyte is improved.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the beneficial effects that:
the invention provides a low-concentration and simple-preparation antifreeze electrolyte configuration method, which aims to solve the problems that a water-based battery is frozen at zero temperature, a polymer network fails, and the battery is subjected to irreversible mechanical deformation to greatly lose capacity. By selecting an organic solvent and a polymer network which can bring a large number of hydrophilic groups, a novel flexible electrolyte design method is provided, the freezing point of the flexible electrolyte is greatly reduced, so that the battery can keep flexibility and elasticity at ultralow temperature, and irreversible damage of ice crystals to a battery device caused by temperature reduction is avoided. The selected fluorine-containing zinc salt enables the slightly water-soluble ester additive to be mutually soluble with water and uniformly dispersed in the gel network, and the fluorine-containing zinc salt, the ester additive, the polymer network and the water have obvious interaction, so that the flexible electrolyte system is more stable.
The freezing point of the low-temperature resistant flexible electrolyte containing a large number of hydrophilic groups is greatly reduced through tests, and the flexible battery stably operates at low temperature.
