Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of electrode material preparation, and particularly relates to a carbon nano tube-titanium carbide composite porous microsphere and preparation and application thereof in a lithium-sulfur battery.
Background
In lithium ion secondary battery systems, a low specific capacity positive electrode material (LiFePO 4 And LiCoO 2 Theoretical specific capacities of 170 mAh.g respectively -1 、274mAh·g -1 ) Is always a major factor limiting its development. For this reason, people have turned their eyes to new secondary battery systems in hopes of obtaining higher energy density. Among the currently known cathode materials, sulfur has a high specific capacity (1675 mAh. G -1) Compared with common lithium ion battery anode materials (lithium cobaltate, lithium manganate, lithium iron phosphate and the like), the theoretical energy density of the Li/S battery formed by the lithium metal anode is 3-5 times that of the traditional lithium ion battery. The content of elemental sulfur is very rich, and the theoretical energy density of the lithium sulfur battery is 2600 Wh.kg -1 Is much higher than that of a common lithium ion battery. Therefore, a lithium sulfur (Li-S) system is considered to be useful for next-generation secondary batteries.
As early as sixties in the last century, ulam and Herbat et al proposed the concept of Li-S batteries using sulfur as the positive electrode material, with a theoretical specific capacity of 1675mAh g-1 being very high. The Li-S battery has mainly the advantages: (1) The elementary sulfur has rich reserves in the earth, low price and environmental protection; (2) The theoretical specific capacity of the positive electrode material and the theoretical specific energy of the battery are higher, which respectively reach 1675mAh g-1 and 2600Wh kg-1, and are far higher than the capacity of the lithium cobalt oxide battery widely applied in commerce;(3) Lithium is used as the negative electrode, and the specific capacity of the negative electrode can reach 3860 mAh.g < -1 >. Large volume expansion (80%) due to complete conversion reaction of sulfur with lithium ions during discharge, and low conductivity of elemental sulfur (5×10) -30 S cm -1 ) Resulting in poor electrochemical performance. The most important problem to be solved is the shuttle effect, i.e. the lithium polysulfide (LPS, li 2 S x 4.ltoreq.x.ltoreq.8) is soluble in aprotic solvents used in lithium sulfur batteries, the negatively charged LPS is easily moved towards the Li anode under the action of an applied electric field, so that the ions re-oxidized from the LPS cannot return to the cathode, resulting in loss of active species, which in turn leads to severe capacity fade and poor rate performance. To overcome these disadvantages, many studies have been made, and there have been attempted methods: (1) Preparing C@S composite material by design using mixing, impregnating and constraining methods, (2) using a multifunctional binder; (3) improving the separator (interlayer); (4) A specially formulated electrolyte is used to inhibit the shuttle mechanism. The literature reports that the composite material obtained by loading elemental sulfur with graphene, conductive polymer or metal oxide as a carrier captures the dissolved LPS in a diffusion barrier layer of the carrier material through physical/chemical adsorption, and has a certain function of inhibiting the shuttle effect, however, the materials cannot completely overcome the defects in the lithium-sulfur battery.
MXene is a new type of two-dimensional (2D) carbide and/or nitride found by Naguib et al in 2011. These 2D materials are called MXene because they are obtained by selectively etching a (group 3 or 4 element) in the MAX phase of the precursor in an acid (HF acid) and an organic solvent. MXnes has the general formula Mn+1XnTx, where M represents an early transition metal, X represents C or N, tx represents certain chemical groups, e.g. during etching of Ti 3 AlC 2 T x And surface groups such as-O, -OH, and-F of aluminum atoms are replaced. MXene has unique properties such as high metal conductivity>5000S·cm -1 ) And is environmentally friendly. In addition, the MXene developed can be tuned to various surface functionalities depending on its application needs, increasing its versatility.
Lithium sulfur batteries (Li-S) are considered to be a promising energy storage system because of their high energy density and low cost, but they suffer from the most complex problems of shuttling effects of soluble polysulfides, etc., resulting in rapid capacity fade, severe self-discharge, low energy efficiency, and poor cycling stability. The use of nanostructured materials as sulfur carriers is a common method of mitigating polysulfide shuttling. The excellent electronic properties, electrochemical properties, optical properties and mechanical properties exhibited by the MXees material enable the MXees material to be widely applied to the fields of energy storage, flexible electronics, hydrogen storage and the like. Studies also show that the MXees material layers are easy to stack, the specific surface area and ion adsorption sites of the materials are reduced, the stacking can further block the migration of ions, the specific capacity and the rate performance of the MXees as electrode materials are greatly influenced, but due to the high conductivity and the excellent electrochemical properties, and people are striving to improve the defects of the MXees at present, the MXees are promising as the cathode materials of the lithium sulfur batteries.
The invention prepares a novel CNT/p-Ti 3 C 2 T x The MXene composite porous microsphere is based on the advantages of the MXene material, and CNTs are added simultaneously, so that the collapse and stacking defects of the lamellar structure of the MXene material are prevented by utilizing the nucleation effect of the carbon nano tube, and the CNTs can also enhance the conductivity of the composite porous microsphere. The invention aims to utilize CNT/p-Ti 3 C 2 T x The MXene composite porous microsphere solves the current problems of the lithium-sulfur battery positive electrode material, and has important significance for promoting the development of the lithium-sulfur battery positive electrode material.

FIG. 1 is an SEM image and an EDS image of a carbon nanotube-titanium carbide composite porous microsphere after preparation and sulfur loading.

The porous structure can effectively relieve the volume expansion effect of the sulfur anode. Fully mixing with alcohol solution of carbon nano tube and spray drying to obtain microsphereCNT/p-Ti of (c) 3 C 2 T x (FIG. 1 (f)). Elemental map display of EDS (FIG. 1 (g)), S and CNT/p-Ti 3 C 2 T x Good adhesion of the material, and CNT/p-Ti 3 C 2 T x Ti, C and S in/S are uniformly distributed, indicating CNT/pTi 3 C 2 T x The material has strong sulfur loading capacity, can strengthen physical limitation and chemical adsorption of polysulfide, and enhances the conductivity of S, thereby improving the electrochemical performance of the battery.
EXAMPLE 2CNT/p-Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene/S electrochemical performance test.
With Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene/S as a comparison, the sulfur loading process is as follows: ti is mixed with 3 C 2 T x MXene or CNT/p-Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene and sulfur powder are mixed according to the mass ratio of 1:4, alcohol is added dropwise under an infrared drying oven, and the mixture is ground uniformly by an agate mortar. Placing the obtained mixture in a tube furnace, and burning at 155 deg.C under Ar atmosphere for 12 hr to obtain Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene/S or CNT/p-Ti 3 C 2 T x The MXene/S electrochemical performance test steps are as follows:
(1)CNT/p-Ti 3 C 2 T x preparation of MXene/S positive plate
0.07g of a composite material (CNT/p-Ti was weighed out 3 C 2 T x MXene) was mixed with 0.02g of acetylene black and 0.0.1g of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) using N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) as a solvent, uniformly ground into a slurry in an agate grinding bowl, then coated on an aluminum foil using the aluminum foil as a current collector, and vacuum-dried at 80 ℃ for 12 hours.
(2) Assembling the prepared anode material into a battery in a vacuum glove box (the volume fraction of oxygen is less than 0.1ppm, and the volume fraction of water is less than 0.1 ppm), taking a lithium sheet as a negative electrode, and sequentially putting the anode sheet, a diaphragm, the lithium sheet, a gasket and an elastic sheet into a battery shell; and (5) dropwise adding a proper amount of electrolyte, sealing by a sealing machine, and assembling the CR2032 button battery for later use.
(3) Electrochemical alternating current impedance spectroscopy (EIS) test
FIG. 2 is a schematic view ofCNT/p-Ti 3 C 2 T x Composite material of/S (PMC) and Ti 3 C 2 T x Nyquist plot of/S (hereinafter M) material. As can be seen from fig. 2, two semicircles are shown in the high and medium frequency regions and a diagonal line is shown in the low frequency region. The first semicircle in the high frequency range represents the interfacial resistance of the solid electrolyte interfacial film (SEI) or the resistance of lithium ions flowing through the SEI (Rs). The semicircle of the intermediate frequency represents the charge transfer resistance (Rct) between the SEI and the electrolyte. The diagonal line (Warburg impedance) reflects the diffusion of lithium ions in the electrode. Analysis of FIG. 2 shows that CNT/p-Ti 3 C 2 T x Ac impedance rct=9.7Ω of the/S (PMC) composite material, much smaller than Ti 3 C 2 Tx (M) indicates a faster kinetics of the charge transfer process. This can be attributed to the addition of the multi-wall CNT, which enhances the conductivity of the composite porous microsphere, facilitates the charge transfer of the electrode itself, and can reduce the resistance value of the PMC cathode material and increase its conductivity.
(4) Rate capability test
FIG. 3 is a CNT/p-Ti 3 C 2 T x Composite material of/S (PMC) and Ti 3 C 2 T x The material/S (hereinafter referred to as M) was subjected to a rate performance test. As can be seen from FIG. 3, the PMC positive electrode showed excellent rate performance with respect to continuous change of current density, and when tested at current densities of 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.5, 1, 2, 1, 0.5, 0.3, 0.2, 0.1C, the PMC electrode provided 889.06, 746.62, 656.28, 600.47, 519.45, 601.85, 673.75mA h.g, respectively -1 Is excellent in specific discharge capacity. Furthermore, after cycling the current density back to 0.1C, the PMC electrode was still able to recover 673.75 mAh.g -1 Is stable and has high specific capacity. This is in sharp contrast to M-electrodes, which have specific discharge capacities of only 615.37, 540.93, 476.90, 401.59, 181.77, 318.11, 407.03, 496.70, and 544.81 mAh.g, respectively, at the same test rates -1 Only a lower specific capacity is shown. These test data clearly demonstrate that CNT/p-Ti 3 C 2 T x The (PMC) electrode material has better rate capability and cycling stability, further illustrating the advantages and necessity of CNT addition.
(4) Cycle performance test
FIG. 4 (a) is a graph showing the results of constant current charge and discharge performance test of CNT/p-Ti3C2Tx (PMC) and Ti3C2Tx (M) at a current density of 0.1C, FIG. 4 (b) is a graph showing the comparison of the cycle performance of PMC and M at a current of 0.1C, and 200 cycles at a large current density of 1C. From the discharge curve in fig. 4 (a), it can be seen that PMC starts to appear at 2.1 and 2.3V as two distinct discharge plateaus, which are the processes of sulfur reduction to polysulfide and polysulfide conversion to insoluble long chain polysulfide compounds, respectively. As can be seen from FIG. 4 (b), the initial discharge capacity of the PMC composite material was 631.51mA hg -1 Can be kept at 390.91 mAh.g after 200 times of circulation -1 The capacity fade rate is small. As can be seen from FIG. 4 (c), the discharge capacities of the PMC composite materials in the first four cycles were 915.51, 913.65, 912.05, 902.18 mAh.g, respectively -1 Furthermore, during cycling, the voltage difference between the charge and discharge plateau of the PMC composite is stable, which in turn indicates a decrease in resistance in the active material during cycling, li + The ion diffusivity is enhanced. As can be seen from FIG. 4 (C), the specific discharge capacity of the PMC material after 20 cycles at a current density of 0.1C can be maintained at 900 mAh.g -1 Up and down, accounting for 90% of its initial specific capacity, PMC consistently showed higher and better coulombic efficiency during these 20 cycles.
