Description

Alkali metal cathode with stable circulation, preparation method thereof and alkali metal battery
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of alkali metal batteries, in particular to an alkali metal cathode with stable circulation, a preparation method thereof and an alkali metal battery.
Background
Alkali metal anodes have received much attention from researchers due to their high energy density. Alkali metal anodes include lithium, sodium, potassium metal anodes that exhibit unique advantages in various respectsAnd (4) potential. The lithium metal negative electrode has extremely high theoretical capacity (3860mAh g) -1 ) And the lowest electrochemical potential (-3.04V vs hydrogen standard potential) is the most ideal negative electrode material for the next generation of energy storage systems. Similar to the working mechanism of lithium metal negative electrodes, sodium and potassium metals achieve ion transport on the negative electrode side through electrochemical deposition and stripping, and also exhibit higher theoretical capacity (sodium is 1165mAh g) -1 687mAh g as potassium -1 ). Sodium and potassium metals are more abundant in the earth than lithium metal and therefore less expensive. However, the use of alkali metal cathodes is faced with the problems of metal dendrite growth, metal cathode pulverization and serious volume effect, which causes the battery capacity to generate 'water jump' attenuation, especially the battery thermal runaway and fire explosion caused by the penetration of metal dendrite in the battery, and seriously hinders the commercial application of the alkali metal cathodes.
Aiming at the high reactivity of the alkali metal cathode, the current main countermeasure strategy is to modify a layer of ion-conductive and electron-insulating surface film, namely an artificial SEI film, on the surface of the cathode. The technical development routes of researchers include: and preparing the artificial SEI film by in-situ and ex-situ means. The non-in-situ preparation of the artificial SEI film is to form a heterogeneous interface layer on the surface of the negative electrode, wherein the interface layer does not react with the negative electrode in the preparation process, and the specific preparation methods mainly comprise a solution pouring method, a gas phase chemical deposition method, an atomic layer deposition technology, a rolling method and the like. The artificial SEI film prepared by the ex-situ method has the advantages of high and compact film forming quality, controllable film forming thickness and adjustable and controllable experimental parameters. However, the artificial SEI film prepared by the ex-situ method is generally poor in interface contact with a negative electrode, so that the battery has large interface impedance; the artificial SEI film prepared in an ex-situ manner is usually a non-lithium ion conductor, and needs to be lithiated in the working process of a negative electrode, and the lithiation process usually causes the modified interface film to form pores and crack, so that the interface film fails. The in-situ method is to modify an artificial SEI film on the interface by using the high reactivity of the cathode to react with the oxidizing material, and comprises the chemical reaction between the cathode and the gas/liquid phase material and the diffusion effect between the cathode and the solid phase. The in-situ formed artificial SEI film can generate a conformal interface with the negative electrode, so that the contact problem between the negative electrode and the interface film is effectively solved; the artificial SEI film is usually a certain salt of alkali metal, and is beneficial to improving the ion transmission of alkali metal ions at an interface to obtain good rate performance.
At present, alkali metal cathodes, especially potassium cathodes, have very high chemical activity, safe disposal of the alkali metal cathodes cannot be realized by in-situ or ex-situ methods in the prior art, and severe reaction with a treated solvent or a treated reactant can still occur in an inert atmosphere glove box in the interface treatment process of potassium metal to cause fire explosion; in the existing disposal method, multi-step experimental operation treatment is required to obtain an artificial SEI film, the film forming quality of the prepared interface film is not high, impurities exist, and the preparation cost is increased for the preparation of an alkali metal cathode; the interface stability of the alkali metal cathode cannot be realized by the prior art means, and particularly, the interface stability of the sodium and potassium metals with high reactivity cannot be realized in the current reports when the metal deposition and stripping are carried out on the alkali metal battery for a long time.
Based on the technical problems of the current alkali metal negative electrodes, there is a need for improvement.
