Description

Technical Field

Background
Commercial lithium ion batteries using graphite as a negative electrode have been developed and widely used in electric vehicles and portable electronic devices in the 90 s of the 20 th century, but have a lower theoretical specific capacity (372 mAhg) with the development of technology -1 ) The graphite anode material of (a) has no longer been able to meet the demand of high energy density batteries. Thus has ultrahigh theoretical specific capacity (3860 mAhg) compared with graphite -1 ) And the lowest redox potential (-3.04V compared to a standard hydrogen electrode) are considered to be the most potential negative electrode material for next generation rechargeable batteries.
However, lithium metal has a host-free property, and during the electroplating/stripping process of metal lithium, uncontrolled lithium dendrite growth and infinite volume expansion result in low coulombic efficiency, rapid capacity decay, and even after the separator is penetrated by lithium dendrite, a short circuit occurs inside the battery to cause serious safety accidents. According to research, the formation of lithium dendrites is mainly due to the lack of lithium affinity of the nucleation substrate and the uneven distribution of the electric field on the electrode surface, which causes lithium ions to selectively deposit at the positions where the nucleation barrier is low, and then "hot spots" are formed, so that as repeated lithium plating/stripping progresses, the metallic lithium deposited on the "hot spots" continuously accumulates, and finally lithium dendrites are formed.
At present, in order to adjust the deposition behavior of metallic lithium and realize a dendrite-free metallic lithium negative electrode, a three-dimensional porous carbon-based framework (such as carbon nanospheres, carbon nanotubes, graphene and the like) with large specific surface area and high conductivity is generally adopted as a metallic lithium negative electrode host material, and the metallic lithium is deposited into the three-dimensional carbon framework to effectively relieve the volume expansion of the metallic lithium, but the host material in the prior art still has the problem of poor affinity with the metallic lithium.

1. Characterization of nucleation overpotentials
Assembling the half cell: and respectively assembling a pomegranate-shaped carbon sphere pole piece with the diameter of 12mm and used for packaging zinc oxide nanoparticles and a metal lithium piece into a Li | ZnO @ NPCS, li | ZnO @ NPCS-L and Li | ZnO @ NPCS-M half-cell in a glove box which is filled with argon and has the water-oxygen content lower than 0.01 ppm. The electrolyte system selectively contains 2wt% of lithium nitrate (LiNO) 3 ) Electrolyte additive and 1,3-Dioxolane (DOL)/ethylene glycol dimethyl ether (DME) (v/v = 1:1) solution of 1mol/L lithium bistrifluoromethanesulfonylimide (LiTFSI), and the separator adopts commercial polypropylene porous membrane.

The nucleation overpotential is the difference between the lowest voltage value and the stable voltage value during lithium deposition, and it can be known from fig. 5 that the nucleation overpotential of the Li | zno @ npcs half-cell is only 8mV, which indicates that the pomegranate-shaped carbon spheres encapsulating the zinc oxide nanoparticles synthesized in example 1, which are used as the negative electrode host material of the lithium metal cell, can reduce the nucleation barrier of the metal lithium by performing an alloy reaction with lithium ions, thereby reducing the deposition resistance, inducing the uniform deposition of the metal lithium, and playing a significant role in reducing the deposition resistance of the metal lithium.
2. Characterization of cycling Performance

The system using the electrolyte was 1mol/L lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF) 6 ) Ethylene Carbonate (EC)/diethyl carbonate (DEC) (v/v = 1:1) solution, polypropylene porous membrane was used as the separator material.
Electrochemical testing: the rate performance of the full cells Li @ ZnO @ NPCS | LFP, li @ ZnO @ NPCS-L | LFP and Li @ ZnO @ NPCS-M | LFP was shown in FIG. 7, in which the full cells were subjected to charge-discharge tests at a rate of 0.1 to 2C and a voltage of 2.4 to 4V, respectively. The reversible capacity of the Li @ ZnO @ NPCS | LFP full battery under 1C and 2C is respectively as high as 120 mAh/g and 100mAh/g, and the reversible capacity of the Li @ ZnO @ NPCS electrode and the Li-shaped frame containing a proper void space can effectively buffer huge volume expansion of metal lithium in the charging and discharging process, so that the full battery has excellent rate performance, and the capacity of the full battery taking the ZnO @ NPCS-M containing a large void space and the ZnO @ NPCS-L electrode containing a small void space as the negative electrode under the 1C rate is slightly lower than that of the ZnO @ NPCS electrode, but the capacity under the 2C rate is only 22 and 30mAh/g.
