Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of the present invention. The components of embodiments of the present invention may be arranged and designed in a wide variety of different configurations.
The invention provides a C/G/CNT-S negative electrode material, which comprises carbon fibers, a sulfur core, a graphene box and carbon nanotubes;
the graphene box arrays are arranged on the surface of the carbon fiber;
the sulfur core is located inside the graphene box;
the carbon nano tube is positioned on the surface of the graphene box and is bonded with the graphene box in a C-C bonding mode.
In the C/G/CNT-S cathode material provided by the invention, the carbon fiber provides a loading substrate for the growth of a graphene box structure, and the growth of the graphene box structure is facilitated; the graphene box is used as a buffer space for volume expansion in the charging and discharging processes of the sulfur cathode, so that crushing and collapse caused by insufficient volume expansion space of sulfur are prevented; the sulfur is positioned inside the graphene box, the graphene box provides compact outer layer protection for the sulfur, and the sulfur is effectively prevented from falling off; the graphene box is bonded with the carbon nano tube to form a stable structure, so that the conductivity of the cathode material is improved. The integrated C/G/CNT-S cathode material perfectly builds a 3D conductive network, improves the conductivity and stability of the whole cathode material, and further improves the electrical property.
The second aspect of the present invention provides a method for preparing a C/G/CNT-S anode material, comprising the steps of:
step A: uniformly mixing soluble salt of transition metal, a catalytic growth source, a chelating agent and a pH value regulator to obtain a first solution;
the soluble salt of the transition metal is chosen because the growth of graphene generally requires a relatively smooth substrate, preferably a micron or submicron sheet with a certain thickness, which cannot be stacked layer by layer in order to fully utilize the growth area. The soluble salt of the transition metal and the catalytic growth source can generate transition metal double hydroxide under the action of the pH value regulator.
The transition metal double hydroxide generally presents a sheet structure, the surface is smooth and fine, and the layered transition metal hydroxide (LDHs) is an ideal substrate for growing the box-shaped graphene nanoplatelets. The LDHs material is simple to prepare, the metal source can be selected widely, and the carbon nano obtained by doping the iron source can obtain the catalytic site for the growth of the CNT on the surface of the LDHs. Because the iron source for the catalytic growth of the CNT tube is small in size, and the thermal stability of the iron source is difficult to maintain under high-temperature conditions, the invention obtains the small-size iron source for the in-situ catalytic growth of the thermally stable CNT by a doping compounding way. Common LDHs are mainly prepared by hydrothermal methods, and the samples are generated in a precipitated form, which often makes it difficult to obtain samples that grow in a regular arrangement.

In some embodiments of the present invention, the carbon fiber cloth preferably has a thickness of 1 μm to 50 μm, and is pre-treated for reuse. During pretreatment, the carbon fiber cloth is immersed in a nitric acid solution for pretreatment for 0.5 to 5 hours at the temperature of between 60 and 150 ℃, and then is washed by deionized water for multiple times until the pH value is neutral. The method aims to remove organic impurities on the surface of the carbon fiber cloth and activate the carbon fiber cloth, so that the carbon fiber cloth has better loading capacity and helps the LDHs material to nucleate and vertically grow. The carbon fiber cloth pretreated by nitric acid is used as a load substrate, and compared with the traditional substrate-free hydrothermal preparation process, the LDHs which are orderly arranged and vertically grow can be obtained.
G @ metal composite is micron LDHs with vertically grown carbon fiber cloth surface arrays.
And C: and transferring the G @ metal compound to a single-temperature-zone tube furnace, heating in a protective gas atmosphere, and introducing a carbon source gas to grow graphene to obtain the C/G @ metal compound.
In some embodiments of the invention, the shielding gas is typically, but not limited to, nitrogen or argon.
The C/G @ metal compound is a substance with graphene growing on the surface of LDHs.
Step D: respectively carrying out acid-base treatment on the C/G @ metal compound, drying, and then carrying out CO treatment 2 And N 2 And carrying out heat treatment in a mixed atmosphere, acid water bath treatment, washing and secondary drying to obtain the C/G/CNT.
The C/G @ metal complex is subjected to acid-base treatment respectively in order to remove alpha-Ni (OH) 2 And (5) template.
CO 2 And N 2 The reason why the heat treatment in the mixed atmosphere and the secondary acid-base treatment are performed is to generate a residual Fe catalyst source for the CNT.
And E, step E: and uniformly scattering sulfur powder on the surface of the C/G/CNT, and preserving heat in an inert atmosphere to obtain the C/G/CNT-S negative electrode material.
And E, the purpose of the step E is to enable sulfur to permeate into the box-shaped graphene nanoplatelets through hot melting diffusion, and compared with the traditional load, the step E has more ideal coating performance.
The preparation method of the C/G/CNT-S cathode material provided by the invention obtains the material by establishing a template, growing and etching the template. The preparation method has the advantages of continuous process, strong controllability, accurate regulation and control of the box-shaped structure of the graphene, realization of fitting and coating of sulfur, easy popularization and contribution to large-scale industrial production.
Optionally, the soluble salt of a transition metal comprises a soluble salt of nickel.
Preferably, the soluble salt of nickel comprises at least one of nickel nitrate, nickel chloride and nickel sulfate.
Hydroxide of nickel alpha-Ni (OH) 2 The LDHs template which is vertically grown and arranged on the surface of the carbon fiber cloth in an array mode can be obtained by loading nucleation growth on the surface of the carbon fiber cloth after pretreatment, and meanwhile Ni is good catalyst for growth of grapheneAnd (4) source melting.
Preferably, the catalytic growth source comprises ferric nitrate.
As a catalytic growth source, ferric nitrate promotes in-situ growth of Carbon Nanotubes (CNT), and Fe is doped in nickel hydroxide alpha-Ni (OH) 2 And the doping is carried out to obtain a small-size thermally stable CNT catalytic growth source, so that the method provides help for building an ideal 3D conductive network for the subsequent graphene/carbon nano tube.
Preferably, the chelating agent comprises 5-sulfosalicylic acid.
5-sulfosalicylic acid acts as a chelator for the growth of LDHs because 5-sulfosalicylic acid can form complexes with transition metal ions and metal ions in the catalytic growth source in aqueous solution.
Preferably, the pH adjuster comprises at least one of urea, sodium hydroxide, and ammonia.

Some embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to examples. The embodiments described below and the features of the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.
Example 1
The embodiment provides a C/G/CNT-S negative electrode material, which comprises the following specific steps:
1) selecting 5-micron carbon fiber cloth as a load substrate, and as shown in fig. 1, firstly, preprocessing the carbon fiber cloth: the carbon fiber cloth is immersed in a nitric acid solution for pretreatment for 1h at the temperature of 80 ℃, and then is washed with deionized water for multiple times until the pH value is neutral.
2) Selecting soluble salt of transition metal as Ni (NO) 3 ) 2 ·6H 2 O, catalytic growth source is Fe (NO) 3 ) 3 ·9H 2 O, 5-sulfosalicylic acid as chelating agent and urea as pH regulator.

4) Cutting a proper amount of the carbon fiber cloth obtained in the step 1) and placing the carbon fiber cloth at the bottom of a polytetrafluoroethylene lining, pouring the solution obtained in the step 3) into the polytetrafluoroethylene lining, transferring the polytetrafluoroethylene lining to a reaction kettle, reacting for 15 hours at 100 ℃, washing the polytetrafluoroethylene lining for multiple times by using deionized water and ethanol after the reaction is finished, and drying the polytetrafluoroethylene lining in an oven at 80 ℃ to obtain the G @ FeNi-LDHs material, wherein the material is shown in figure 2.
5) Transferring the G @ FeNi-LDHs obtained in the step 4) into a single-temperature-zone tube furnace, heating to the growth temperature of 980 ℃ at the heating rate of 5 ℃/min in the nitrogen atmosphere, and introducing 300ml/min of C after the temperature is stable 2 H 4 And (3) growing the carbon source gas for 10min, closing and heating after the reaction is finished, and naturally cooling the carbon source gas to room temperature in an inert atmosphere to obtain the C/G @ FeNi-LDHs material, wherein the material is shown in figure 3.

Example 2
This example provides a C/G/CNT-S negative electrode material, which is different from example 1 in that the pH regulator is NaOH, and the rest of the raw materials and steps are the same as those in example 1, and are not repeated herein.
As can be seen from a scanning electron microscope, the growing LDHs are aggregated and precipitated into flower-shaped secondary particles by nano sheets with the sheet diameter of about 200-500nm, which is attributable to that when NaOH is used for assisting growth, the LDHs have large nucleation quantity and high nucleation speed, and the LDHs with large sheet diameter are difficult to obtain.
Example 3
This example provides a C/G/CNT-S negative electrode material, which is different from example 1 in that the pH regulator is ammonia water, and other raw materials and steps are the same as those in example 1, and are not described herein again.
As can be seen from a scanning electron microscope, the growing LDHs are gathered and precipitated on the surface of the carbon fiber cloth by nanosheets with the plate diameter of about 0.8-1 mu m, and a key factor influencing the size of the LDHs plate and controlling the growth speed of the LDHs template due to the adjustment of the pH value of the solution can be obviously found in comparative example 1 and example 2.
Example 4
The present embodiment provides a C/G/CNT-S negative electrode material, which is different from embodiment 1 in that, in step 1), carbon fiber cloth does not need to be pretreated with nitric acid, and is simply cleaned with absolute ethyl alcohol, and the remaining raw materials and steps are the same as those in embodiment 1, and are not described herein again.
As can be seen from a scanning electron microscope, the LDHs has low loading density on the surface of the carbon fiber cloth, and a local vacuum zone exists on the surface of the carbon fiber cloth, which can be attributed to the fact that the carbon fiber cloth can be activated by nitric acid pretreatment, so that the loading capacity is enhanced, and the nucleation growth of the LDHs on the surface of the carbon fiber cloth is facilitated.
Example 5
This example provides a C/G/CNT-S negative electrode material, different from example 1 in that, in step 3), Ni (NO) 3 ) 2 ·6H 2 O and Fe (NO) 3 ) 3 ·9H 2 The molar ratio of the O powder to the sulfosalicylic acid dihydrate was 4:0.2 mol, and the other raw materials and steps were the same as in example 1 and will not be described again.
Example 6
This example provides a C/G/CNT-S negative electrode material, different from example 1 in that, in step 3), Ni (NO) 3 ) 2 ·6H 2 O and Fe (NO) 3 ) 3 ·9H 2 The molar ratio of O powder is 4:1.5, the sulfosalicylic acid dihydrate is 5.5mol, and the rest raw materials and steps are the same as those in example 1 and are not repeated.
Example 7
This example provides a C/G/CNT-S negative electrode material, different from example 1, in step 2), the soluble salt of the transition metal is CuSO 4 The rest of the raw materials and steps are the same as those in example 1, and are not described again here.
The result shows that the carbon dissolving capacity of Cu is very weak, copper is used as a growth catalytic source, the growth speed of graphene is slow, the number of layers is mostly single, and the construction of a stable graphene 'box' is not facilitated.
Comparative example 1
The comparative example provides a common graphene/sulfur composite negative electrode, which has a simple structure of compounding graphene with sulfur, and the preparation process is the same as the sulfur doping process of example 1, wherein the graphene used is purchased from element six in changzhou.
Comparative example 2
This comparative example provides a C/G/CNT-S anode material, different from example 1, in that the catalytic growth source is Co (NO) 3 ) 2 ·6H 2 O, the remaining raw materials and steps are the same as those in example 1 and are not described herein again.
As can be seen from a scanning electron microscope, only graphene grows on the surface of LDHs, and the 3D conductive network built is not ideal because CNT grows transversely.
Comparative example 3
This comparative example provides a C/G/CNT-S negative electrode material, which is different from example 1 in that the growth temperature of step 5) is 900 deg.C, and the other steps are the same as example 1. The result shows that only a small amount of graphene crystal domains grow on the surface of the LDHs, and a coated closed graphene box does not grow.
Test example 1
The C/G/CNT-S negative electrode samples obtained in examples 1 to 7 and the ordinary graphene/sulfur composite negative electrode provided in comparative example 1 were directly cut into a disc (disc diameter 12mm) as a negative electrode, and assembled into a button-type half cell to perform 0.5C charge and discharge test and 1C cycle 100-week capacity retention test, and the data obtained by the test are shown in table 1 below.
