Description

Electrolyte of zinc-bromine battery with non-circulating electrolyte
Technical Field
The invention relates to an electrolyte of a non-circulating electrolyte zinc-bromine battery, which comprises a positive electrolyte and a negative electrolyte of the battery and a battery supplementary electrolyte.
Background
Since the 20 th century, the use of a large number of automobiles causes increasingly serious urban air pollution, and the promotion of the method has to consider that electric automobiles replace fuel automobiles so as to solve the problems of urban environmental pollution and upcoming exhaustion of petroleum resources. With the attention of people on environmental protection and the progress of science and technology, the electric vehicle is bound to become the mainstream vehicle in the 21 st century. The heart of the electric automobile is a power battery, and the power battery of the electric automobile is mainly discharged continuously by medium current or discharged by large current (used for starting, accelerating and climbing) unlike a general automobile starting storage battery. In recent years, the manufacturing technology of power batteries for electric vehicles has been rapidly developed, and in particular, zinc-bromine batteries have the advantages of low cost, long service life, high energy density, good electrical property, capability of working at normal temperature, no pollution, good safety and the like, and are meeting the requirements of power batteries for electric vehicles in many aspects, so that the zinc-bromine batteries are more and more emphasized.
The zinc-bromine battery is mainly divided into two structures, one is a non-circulating electrolyte battery, electrolyte is driven by a circulating pump to continuously circulate in a battery cavity and a liquid storage tank, but because the circulation of the electrolyte inevitably generates uneven liquid flow to generate unbalanced tension on the inner cavity of the battery, the structure of the battery is damaged, the service life of the battery is reduced, and the battery is large in size, complex in structure and high in cost; the other is a non-circulating electrolyte zinc-bromine battery, the electrolyte does not need to flow circularly, the structure is simple, the costis reduced, and the service life of the battery can be obviously prolonged.
The non-circulating zinc-bromine battery is a secondary battery which takes zinc bromide water solution as electrolyte and takes bromine corrosion resistant metal or carbon material as an electrode plate. The non-cyclic zinc-bromine battery has the following negative pole reaction during charging: and (3) positive pole reaction: bromine generated on the positive plate and bromine complexThe mixture binds to form a bromine complex, which precipitates on the surface of the positive electrode.
The self-discharge problem of Zn-Br cells is mainly due to Br produced in the cathode region during charging2With Br in solution-Can react to produce Br3 -With Br5 --Thus increasing the dissolution of bromine. These ions, by diffusion into the anodic region, react directly with the Zn layer on the anode, causing the dissolution of zinc and self-discharge:
therefore, taking various measures to prevent the diffusion of bromine to the anode region is the fundamental approach to solve the problem.
In addition, the Zn-Br battery also has a problem of dendrite growth, in which Zn is deposited on the negative electrode when the Zn-Br battery is charged, and when the zinc reaches a certain thickness, a spongy Zn layer and dendrites appear. The Zn-Br battery has high energy density, if the dendritic growth is not controlled, particularly during deep charging, the dendritic Zn penetrates through a diaphragm to cause short circuit, and the generated hydrogen has corrosion effect on a polar plate of a negative electrode.
Some complexing agents are added into the electrolyte, so that the problem of performance reduction of the battery caused by self-discharge and dendritic crystal growth can be solved. As information on additives for electrolytes, mention may be made of those disclosed in GB-A-1569397, WO-A-9518468. WO-A-9518468 discloses the preparation of A zinc halide battery, wherein all asymmetrically substituted quaternary ammonium salts are mentioned, such as N-ethyl-N-methylmorpholine bromide, N-ethyl-N-methylpyrroline bromide, N-methoxymethyl-N-methylpiperidinium bromate, N-chloromethyl-N-methylpyrrolidium bromate, and the like, using bromine complexing agents; GB-a-1569397 discloses a battery in which the electrolyte contains a single bromine complexing agent: a water-soluble tetra-organically substituted quaternary ammonium salt.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention prepares the electrolyte for the positive and negative electrodes in a targeted way according to the electrode reaction of the positive and negative electrodes of the zinc-bromine battery. According to the characteristics of battery charging and discharging, the electrolyte for subsequent supplement of the battery is also researched, and is different from the battery liquid of the positive electrode and the negative electrode. Thereby inhibiting the self-discharge and dendritic crystal growth of the zinc-bromine battery with non-circulating electrolyte and improving the performance of the battery.
The positive electrode electrolyte is prepared by adding several bromine complexing agents into the electrolyte according to a reaction represented by a formula ② carried out by a positive electrode, wherein the main purpose is to complex bromine generated by the reaction, so that the bromine does not directly react with a negative electrode through a diaphragm to form self-discharge, the added various substances are one or more selected from dodecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide, hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide, tetrabutyl ammonium bromide, triethanolamine, octadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide, didecyl dimethyl ammonium bromide, N-methyl morpholine or a mixture thereof, bromides of the quaternary ammonium salts can be replaced by corresponding chlorides, the additives are added into a zinc bromide aqueous solution with the concentration of 5mol/L, and the adding amount is 0.001-1.5 mol/L of dodecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide, 0.005-1.3 mol/L of hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide, 0-0.9 mol/L of tetrabutyl ammonium bromide, 0-0.6 mol/L of triethanolamine, 0.01-1.0 mol/L of octadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide, 0.3mol/L of didecyl dimethyl ammonium bromide, 0.7-0.0.5 mol/L of octadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide, and the optimal adding amount is 0.0.0-0.5 mol/L of octadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide, 0.0.0-0.05 mol/L of octadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide, 0.0.0-0.5 mol/L of octadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide, and the most optimal amount is 0.0.0.0.0-0.0.0.7 mol/L of octadecyl dimethyl ammonium bromide.
Preparing a negative electrode electrolyte: in the process of charging and discharging of the zinc-bromine battery, the zinc forms dendrite at the edge of the battery to cause short circuit of the battery, and the generated hydrogen has corrosion effect on a polar plate of a negative electrode. The addition of ammonium ions can prevent the generation of zinc dendrites, TX-10 is a corrosion inhibitor of a zinc electrode and can inhibit the precipitation of hydrogen, and chloride ions play a role of a conductivity improver in a solution. The added various substances are potassium chloride, stannic chloride, cadmium chloride, TX-10 and OP-10. The addition amount is potassium chloride: 0-1.5mol/L, stannic chloride: 0-0.2 mol/L, cadmium chloride: 0-0.2 mol/L, TX-10: 0 to 0.2mol/L, OP-10: 0 to 0.2 mol/L. The optimal addition amount is potassium chloride: 0.2-0.5 mol/L, stannic chloride: 0.02-0.14 mol/L, cadmium chloride: 0.01-0.07 mol/L, TX-10: 0.01-0.1 mol/L, OP-10: 0.01 to 0.1 mol/L. In addition to the above additives, the main component of the negative electrolyte is a 5mol/L aqueous solution of zinc bromide.
Electrolyte is added in the using process: since water is largely lost during the charge and discharge of the battery, the molar concentration of the replenishment electrolyte is lower than that of the positive and negative electrode electrolytes. Adding potassium chloride and sodium chloride into 5mol/L zinc bromide electrolyte according to the molar ratio of 1: 1, then diluting with 2-5 times of distilled water, mixing uniformly, and adding into a battery according to the required amount. The chloride ions act as conductivity modifiers in the solution.
The invention can improve the complexing ability of bromine, so free bromine in the electrolyte can be reduced, and the self-discharge phenomenon caused by the existence of the free bromine is reduced. The addition of the solution conductivity improver, the hydrogen inhibiting material and the corrosion inhibitor can improve the conductivity of the battery, reduce the hydrogen gas evolution and prolong the service life of the battery.
