Definitions

  • the invention concerns a process for the preparation of a composite material comprising a polymer base material and metalloid particles.
  • the invention is further directed to a polymeric composite material that may be obtained by carrying out the process according to the invention.
  • the invention also relates to a process for the preparation of a composite material comprising carbon fiber and metalloid particles from a polymeric composite material according the invention.
  • the invention also concerns the obtained carbon composite material and its use for the preparation of an electrode that may be used in an energy storage device.
  • a typical Lithium-ion battery is made up of positive cathode and negative anode materials separated by a separator impregnated by an electrolyte.
  • the electrodes store Lithium ions Li + and electrons while the electrolyte allows ionic conduction and prevents electron shuttling.
  • Each electrode is generally composed of a current collector foil (or current collector), i.e. Copper Cu for the anode and Aluminum A1 for the cathode, coated with an electrode composite structure made of a binder, a conductive additive and of an active material.
  • the negative electrode materials are generally made of carbonaceous materials, such as graphite, carbon black or hard carbon. Such materials however lack freedom of shape and have limited storage capacity (amount of stored Lithium ions Li + per unit of weight or volume) and poor rate performance (capability to deliver electric charge under high load).
  • Polymers have been considered as promising materials to create lighter, safer and better performing rechargeable batteries, in particular for the automotive market [1] Polymers are advantageous in that they can be shaped into various forms such as nanofibers, which allows to create novel nano- architectures [1-4] that can boost the performances of ion-delivery materials, such as lithium-ion batteries.
  • a conductive agent such as Germanium (Ge), or intrinsic Silicon (Si), or doped Silicon (Si)
  • Ge Germanium
  • Si intrinsic Silicon
  • Si doped Silicon
  • several routes have been undertaken such as, non-exhaustively: (i) physically mixing additive nanoparticles with carbon, (ii) fabricating additive nano-objects with superior properties directly onto a current collector to suppress the need for carbon, or (iii) by growing novel carbon architectures (e.g. nano-trees, nano-pillars, nano-fibers) and depositing additives directly on their surfaces.
  • novel carbon architectures e.g. nano-trees, nano-pillars, nano-fibers
  • the main drawback for the use of Germanium (Ge), Silicon (Si), or any Li- alloying elements is the repeated and very high volume change occurring during the lithiation/delithiation reactions.
  • This volume change can be as high as about 300 %, and may cause various materials failures. For instance, this may lead to electrode fracturing or delamination and isolation of the active material, surface roughening, creation of internal porosity (voids), etc.
  • the large volume changes can cause the rupture of the protective solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) film naturally formed on the surface of the electrode. In turn, this re-exposes the Silicon (Si) surface to the electrolyte and negatively consumes more electrolyte and Lithium Li ions from the positive electrode. Overall, this results in a decrease of the capacity retention and of the rate performance, and leads to degraded battery cycle life and potential safety hazards.
  • SEI solid electrolyte interphase
  • Nanowires have one of the most advantageous morphology to date for the use in optoelectronic and energy storage applications since they have a very high surface-to-volume ratio, promoting fast surface exchanges and lowering energy barriers required for ionic and charge transfer mobilities.
  • the small radius of the nanowires provides a more mechanically robust material and promotes the capacity retention while ensuring higher reaction kinetics.
  • Nanowires can be made using Vapor - Liquid - Solid (VLS) chemical vapor deposition (CVD) techniques [5-9]
  • VLS CVD growth requires thermal energy to promote the dissociation of the precursor and to form an eutectic liquid alloy between the catalyst and Si. It is thus essential that the support material can withstand those temperatures.
  • Carbonaceous materials such as graphite, carbon black, carbon nanofibers, or hard carbons are known materials capable of enduring temperatures necessitated by the growth process.
