Description

Novel pore carbon sphere and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of carbon preparation, in particular to a novel pore carbon sphere and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Sodium ion batteries are considered to be an electrochemical system that is well suited for use in large-scale energy storage applications due to the advantages of large sodium resource reserves, low cost, and high safety. And because the radius of the sodium ions is larger than that of the lithium ions, the sodium ions cannot be effectively deintercalated in the graphite cathode. Among all sodium ion battery anode materials, hard carbon is most likely to be put into practical use as a sodium-electricity anode material due to its characteristics of abundant carbon source, low cost, low sodium storage potential, and the like. However, in the practical application process, the hard carbon anode also has the problems of poor rate capability, insufficient long-cycle stability and the like.
Hard carbon is carbon that is difficult to graphitize even at high temperatures above 2500 ℃. The graphitization degree of the hard carbon material is smaller, and the conductivity of the material is lower, so that the rate performance of the battery is poorer. The conventional method is to reduce the hard carbon particle size to shorten the deintercalation path of sodium ions, so as to improve the rate performance. However, the most immediate problem is that the hard carbon particle size is reduced, which brings more specific surface area, resulting in degradation of battery cycle performance.
CN201710195233 discloses a negative electrode material of lithium ion battery carbon sphere, which is prepared by dissolving carbon source in water, hydrothermal reacting, sintering, and doping cobalt element on the surface of carbon sphere. By the scheme of the nano-scale carbon spheres, the multiplying power performance of the hard carbon cathode can not be effectively improved. However, the extra active surface brought by the undersize of the negative electrode only causes the reaction area of the negative electrode SEI film to be larger, consumes more sodium ions, and finally leads to the deterioration of the cycle performance.
With the recent shortage of lithium resources and the price increase of lithium ores, the demand for new low-cost chemical systems is becoming greater. How to solve the problem that the multiplying power performance and the cycle performance of the sodium ion hard carbon cathode become one of the special for the development of sodium ion batteries. There is therefore an urgent need to solve the above problems by means of some new materials or processes.
Disclosure of Invention
In view of the above-mentioned drawbacks of the prior art, in a first aspect of the present invention, a method for preparing a porous carbon sphere with a simple process is provided, and a coaxial electrospinning process is adopted, which includes the following steps:
(1) Respectively dissolving high molecular polymers in solvents to respectively obtain corresponding inner layer solution and outer layer solution;
(2) The inner layer solution and the outer layer solution are subjected to coaxial electrostatic spinning to prepare fiber filaments with a core-shell structure;
(3) Dissolving the core of the fiber yarn with the core-shell structure by a solvent to form a shell layer with a hollow pore canal, filtering and collecting a filter cake, and drying the filter cake to obtain a carbon sphere precursor;
(4) And presintering the carbon sphere precursor in an air atmosphere, carbonizing under the protection of inert gas, and finishing treatment to obtain the pore channel carbon sphere.
Preferably, in the step (1), the high molecular polymer in the inner layer solution includes at least one of polymethyl methacrylate, polyethylene, polystyrene, and polyvinyl acetate.
Further preferably, the concentration of the inner layer solution is 7wt.% to 20wt.%.
Preferably, in the step (1), the high molecular polymer in the outer layer solution includes at least one of polyamide, polyacrylonitrile, polyvinyl alcohol and polyvinyl chloride.
Further preferably, the concentration of the outer layer solution is 7wt.% to 30wt.%.
The choice of solvent in step (1) is varied and can be dissolved using organic solvents which are correspondingly suitable in the art. Based on the type of the polymer of the inner and outer layer solutions adopted in the invention, in order to achieve better dissolution effect, it is further preferable that the solvent for dissolving the polymer comprises at least one of N, N-dimethylformamide, dimethylfuran, dimethylsulfoxide and N-methylpyrrolidone.
In addition, in order to improve the uniformity of the finished product, the high molecular polymer should be fully dissolved in the solvent in the preparation process of the inner layer solution and the outer layer solution, preferably, in the step (1), the dissolution is promoted by heating and stirring, the temperature of heating and stirring is 60-100 ℃, the rotating speed is 500-2000 rpm, and the treatment time is 5-60 min.
Preferably, in the step (2), the voltage of the coaxial electrostatic spinning is 10-30 kV, the advancing rate of the inner layer solution is 20-500 mL/min, the advancing rate of the outer layer solution is 25-250 mL/min, and the electrode distance is 15-30 cm.
The advancing rate ratio of the inner and outer layer solutions affects the specific gravity of the high molecular polymer in the outer layer solution, and the larger the specific gravity is, the smaller the pore channels are, the fewer the active surface is, and the better the circulation performance is. In order to obtain a finished product with better performance, it is further preferable that the ratio of the advancing rates of the inner layer solution and the outer layer solution is 0.2-2.0.
The choice of solvent in step (3) is likewise varied and organic solvents correspondingly suitable in the art can be used, preferably in step (3) the solvent comprises at least one of toluene, tetrahydrofuran, xylene, amyl acetate.

The presintering can prevent the high polymer material from being sintered into blocks in the sintering process. Preferably, in the step (4), the temperature of the pre-sintering is 200-400 ℃ and the heat preservation time is 1-5 h.
In carbonization treatment, the high polymer material should be carbonized thoroughly, and the low temperature or short time can cause incomplete carbonization, thereby affecting the conductivity of the material. Preferably, in the step (4), the carbonization temperature is 1200-1500 ℃, and the heat preservation time is 1-6 h.
Based on the technical scheme, the core-shell fiber yarn is formed by adopting two materials of the core shell to carry out electrostatic spinning simultaneously. And adding the core-shell fiber into a solvent for dissolution. Because the shell is insoluble in the solvent and the core is soluble in toluene, the core in the sphere will be dissolved by the solvent leaving a hollow channel.
In a second aspect of the invention, a porous carbon sphere with more sodium storage space and shorter sodium ion deintercalation path is provided, and the porous carbon sphere is prepared by the method of the first aspect of the invention.
In a third aspect of the invention, there is provided the use of the porous carbon spheres of the second aspect of the invention, in particular as a hard carbon material in the preparation of sodium ion batteries.
Based on the technical scheme, the porous carbon sphere prepared by the invention has a porous negative electrode structure, and the sodium ion channel formed by the middle pore passage shortens half of the sodium ion deintercalation path under the same negative electrode particle size, so that the effect of improving the multiplying power performance is achieved. Meanwhile, compared with a small-particle anode material with the same-grade sodium ion deintercalation path, the porous anode structure has smaller specific surface, effectively reduces the active contact surface of the anode and electrolyte, and can play a role in improving the cycle performance.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the following advantages and beneficial effects:
the invention provides a preparation method of a pore canal carbon sphere, which adopts a coaxial electrostatic spinning process in a soft template synthesis mode, and is simple, convenient and quick.
