Detailed Description
It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for purposes of illustration only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.
As shown in fig. 1, an embodiment provides a preparation method of a negative electrode material, which includes the following steps:
s101, mixing coal-based materials and graphite, and adding the mixture into a solvent to obtain a mixed solution A;
in this embodiment, the raw materials of the battery anode material are anthracite and expanded graphite. The pretreatment of anthracite comprises crushing and purifying. Pulverizing anthracite: placing the purchased blocky anthracite into a ball milling tank for 300r min -1 Is ground at a rotating speed of (2)Grinding until the anthracite coal is crushed until the D90 is less than or equal to 20 mu m; purification of anthracite: weighing appropriate amount of anthracite powder, adding into mixed solution of 30 wt% hydrochloric acid and 20wt% hydrofluoric acid, stirring and washing at 90deg.C for 0.5-1 hr to remove minerals in pulverized coal, vacuum filtering, removing solvent in vacuum drying oven at 80deg.C, purifying to obtain anthracite carbon content>90%。
Experiments of the inventor show that when the granularity of the anthracite is D90 less than or equal to 20 mu m, the speed of reducing the granularity of the anthracite by a high-pressure homogenizing process is faster, and the treatment time of high-pressure homogenizing of materials can be effectively reduced, so that the energy consumption cost is reduced; the graphitization process is accelerated advantageously when the high-temperature calcination is directly carried out. The impurities in the anthracite not only affect the conductivity of the material, but also prevent sodium ions from being stored, when the carbon content of the anthracite is more than 90%, the lower the impurity content in the anthracite is, the conductivity of the coal material is improved, and meanwhile, the negative electrode material prepared from the anthracite is applied to a battery, so that the occurrence of side reactions in the battery is reduced, and the rate capability of the battery is improved.
Compared with flake graphite, the expanded graphite has larger interlayer spacing and higher conductivity, and is easier to peel off and prepare graphene by a high-pressure homogenization process. When the particle size D50 of the expanded graphite is more than 100 mu m, the time for homogenizing the expanded graphite to the required particle size in a high-pressure homogenizer is long, so that the energy consumption is increased and the risk of damage to the homogenizer is increased. When the granularity D50 of the expanded graphite is less than or equal to 100 mu m, the efficiency of reducing the granularity and converting the expanded graphite into graphene in a high-pressure homogenizing process is higher, and the raw material acquisition cost is lower, so that the production and manufacturing cost is reduced, and the method is suitable for industrial production.
In the mixing of the raw materials, the mass of the expanded graphite is 1-10% of that of the anthracite, and the inventor discovers that when the addition amount of the expanded graphite is more than 10%, the high-pressure homogenizing process can not be performed due to the fact that the viscosity of mixed liquid formed by adding the raw materials into deionized water is too high in the high-pressure homogenizing process.
In both lithium batteries and sodium batteries, the amount of the conductive agent added to the negative electrode material was 10%. The mass of the expanded graphite is 1-10% of that of the anthracite, and after high-pressure homogenization treatment, the expanded graphite is converted into graphene, namely the mass of the graphene is 1-10% of that of the anthracite. In addition, the inventor discovers that the addition amount of graphene is lower than 1%, the content of graphene in the anthracite material is too small, the improvement of the conductivity of the anthracite material is not obvious, the addition amount of graphene is higher than 10%, the migration of sodium ions is influenced by the excessive amount of graphene, and the addition amount of the conductive agent has relatively no competitive advantage with the addition amount of the existing conductive agent.
S102, homogenizing the mixed solution A under high pressure to obtain a mixed solution B of the coal-based material and the graphene;
in the embodiment, anthracite and expanded graphite are mixed and added into deionized water to obtain mixed solution, and then the mixed solution is transferred into a high-pressure homogenizer for treatment. The mixing effect of the anthracite, the expanded graphite and the graphene in the liquid phase is superior to that of dry mixing of the powder, the deionized water provides a liquid environment for the anthracite and the expanded graphite so as to facilitate the dispersion of the anthracite and the expanded graphite and subsequent high-pressure homogenization, the conventional liquid phase mixing process such as stirring and the like cannot realize the effects of uniform mixing and coating among the powder, and in the high-pressure homogenization process, the materials can be uniformly mixed and the granularity is reduced due to the fact that the materials are subjected to mechanical forces such as high-speed shearing, high-frequency oscillation, cavitation, convection impact and the like. In the high-pressure homogenizing process of the mixed liquid of the anthracite and the expanded graphite, the granularity of the anthracite and the granularity of the expanded graphite are reduced, the material mixing with small granularity is more uniform, meanwhile, the lamellar layers of the expanded graphite are peeled off to obtain graphene, the surface of the anthracite can be coated by the graphene due to the thinness of the lamellar layers, the structural stability of the anthracite is improved, and the mixed liquid of the anthracite and the expanded graphite is obtained by high-pressure homogenizing.
In the high-pressure homogenizing process, the pressure is 600-1200bar, when the pressure is less than 600bar, the high-pressure homogenizing efficiency is low and the time is long, and when the pressure is more than 1200bar, the instrument is easy to damage, and when the pressure is less than 600bar or more than 1200bar, the high-pressure homogenizing pressure increases the production cost, so that the industrial production is not facilitated. After high-pressure homogenization is finished, the particle size D90 of the mixed solution of anthracite and graphene is less than or equal to 7 mu m. When D90 is more than 7 mu m, the particle size is too large to prevent the deintercalation of sodium ions and is not beneficial to the infiltration of electrolyte when the sodium ion battery is prepared subsequently. Meanwhile, the inventor finds that when the particle size D90 of the mixed solution of anthracite and graphene is less than or equal to 7 mu m, the materials in the mixed solution are uniformly dispersed, and the graphene forms a stable lamellar structure in the mixed solution, so that the stacking condition is avoided, namely, the materials in the obtained mixed solution are stable, and the wall sticking phenomenon and the material separation condition are effectively avoided in the subsequent spray drying process.
S103, spray drying the mixed solution B to obtain composite powder of the coal-based material and the graphene;
after high-pressure homogenization is finished, the mixed solution is subjected to spray drying, wherein the inlet temperature of the spray drying is 180-200 ℃, and the outlet temperature is 120-150 ℃. The solvent used in the invention is deionized water, the volatilization temperature of the deionized water is 100 ℃, and the arrangement of the inlet temperature and the outlet temperature is beneficial to accelerating the material drying efficiency while ensuring the volatilization of the solvent. The spray drying not only converts the mixed solution of graphene and coal into the graphene composite coal material powder, but also has a granulating function, so that the effect of coating the coal material with the graphene is enhanced, and the structural stability of the coal material is further enhanced.
The coal material with stable structure is obtained by spray drying, the powder leakage phenomenon caused by the superfine powder particles is avoided in the subsequent high-temperature calcination process, and the high-temperature calcination yield is improved.
And S104, calcining the composite powder at high temperature to obtain the anode material.
The calcination temperature and the heating rate during the heating process affect the interlayer spacing and the defect type and number of the prepared carbon material, and the interlayer spacing between the carbon layers can be adjusted to an optimal value suitable for deintercalation of lithium ions or sodium ions by adjusting the pyrolysis temperature. The inventor determines the high-temperature calcination parameters after multiple tests: the high-temperature calcination is carried out in inert atmosphere, the temperature is 400-1200 ℃, the temperature rising speed is 5-10 ℃/min, and the constant temperature is 6-12 hours.
In another embodiment, the preparation flow of the anode material is shown in fig. 2, and coal is processed at high temperature in inert atmosphere to obtain a coal-based material; mixing coal-based materials and graphite, and adding the mixture into a solvent to obtain a mixed solution C; homogenizing the mixed solution C under high pressure to obtain a mixed solution D of the coal-based material and the graphene; and (3) spray-drying the mixed solution D to obtain composite powder of the coal-based material and the graphene, wherein the composite powder is a negative electrode material.
The steps in the two preparation processes comprise mixing, high-pressure homogenization, spray drying and high-temperature calcination, and parameters are the same, so that the negative electrode material obtained in the two preparation processes has similar effects in the application of the sodium ion battery.
The technical scheme adopted by the invention is as follows: 1. the method comprises the steps of screening anthracite and expanded graphite, determining proportions, mixing and adding raw materials into a solvent, wherein a liquid phase provides conditions of uniform mixing and coating for the raw materials, and the selection and proportions of the raw materials ensure that the raw material mixed liquid can efficiently carry out a high-pressure homogenization process on one hand, and on the other hand, the conductivity of a negative electrode material is improved and sodium ion transmission is not hindered due to overlarge proportions in the raw materials; 2. the high-pressure homogenization is subjected to parameter adjustment according to the proportion of the raw materials, so that graphene is prepared in the high-pressure homogenization process, the graphene is coated on the coal-based material, a mixed solution which is uniformly mixed with the materials and has proper granularity is obtained, and the graphene is coated on the coal-based material, so that the conductivity and the structural stability of the coal-based material are improved; 3. according to the material after high-pressure homogenization, parameter adjustment is carried out on the spray drying process, so that the mixed solution is changed into composite powder, and the granulating function of spray drying can enhance the coating effect, thereby further improving the structural stability of the composite material; 4. the composite powder is calcined at high temperature to generate the negative electrode material, meanwhile, the graphene is tightly combined with the negative electrode, and the graphene provides sodium storage sites, so that the sodium storage performance of the coal-based material is enhanced. The cathode material has stable structure and excellent conductivity and sodium storage performance due to the synergistic effect of uniform mixing, high-pressure homogenization, spray drying and high-temperature calcination. In addition, the inventor also surprisingly found that the graphene prepared by the method not only improves the conductivity of the coal-based material, but also has the function of a conductive agent, namely the negative electrode material is provided with the conductive agent, and no additional conductive agent is needed in the subsequent preparation of the battery negative electrode slurry.

As is clear from Table 1, when the addition amount of graphite was 6% of the mass of anthracite, that is, the mass ratio of graphene in the coal-based material was 6%, the electrochemical performance of the anode material was optimal, and in example 3, the reversible specific capacity was 237mAh g -1 The initial coulombic efficiency was 75%, the capacity retention after 50 weeks of cycling was 92.7%, and the reversible specific capacity was 240mAh g in example 6 -1 The first coulombic efficiency was 74% and the capacity retention after 50 weeks of cycling was 94.5%. The electrochemical properties of the anode materials in examples 1 to 6 are superior to those of comparative examples 1 and 2.
The graphene material has a unique sodium storage mechanism, and sodium ions can be stored on both sides of the graphene sheet and can be adsorbed on defect positions such as pores of the graphene material and the edges and hole positions of the graphene sheet to reversibly deintercalate sodium ions. According to the invention, the added graphite is subjected to high-pressure homogenization stripping to form graphene, and the graphene and the coal-based material are compounded to obtain the negative electrode material, so that the sodium storage point is increased, and the situation that single-layer graphene is easily subjected to secondary stacking in the charging and discharging process to cause loss of the sodium storage point is avoided; graphene is a two-dimensional material with a thin sheet layer, can be adsorbed on the surface of a coal-based material for coating in the high-pressure homogenizing and spray drying process, and can be used for adjusting the structure of the coal-based material to realize the shaping of the coal-based material; compared with a single coal-based material, the negative electrode material provided by the invention has higher negative electrode capacity, more stable structure and high capacity retention rate after 50 weeks of circulation.
Four-probe method for testing electron conductivity of anode material: mixing the cathode material and polyvinylidene fluoride according to the mass ratio of 9:1, adding N methyl pyrrolidone, stirring uniformly to prepare slurry, coating the prepared slurry on a PET film through a coating machine, drying the PET film coated with the slurry in a vacuum drying oven at 100 ℃ for 4 hours, taking out, and cutting a small wafer with the diameter of 19mm by a microtome. Film resistivity tests were performed on a ST2258C multifunctional digital four-probe tester. The test data are shown in Table 2.
Table 2 film resistivity of pole pieces made from different materials in examples
As can be seen from the data in table 2, in both the processes, when the mass ratio of graphene in the coal-based material is 6%,10%, the resistivity of the negative electrode material is the lowest, the conductivity is better, and the difference is not large, indicating that a good conductive network has been achieved at a ratio of 6%, so that the graphene is preferably 6% based on the cost consideration, and the conductivity of the negative electrode materials in examples 1 to 6 is better than that of comparative examples 1 and 2. The graphene is compounded with the coal-based material, so that the conductivity of the coal-based material is improved.
