近日,陜西科技大學(xué)化學(xué)與化工學(xué)院黃文歡教授團(tuán)隊在Advanced Functional Materials期刊發(fā)表題為“Ultra-Low 4.3 wt% Silicon Thermal Reducing Doped Porous Si@MoC as Highly Capable and Stable Li-Ion Battery Anode”的研究論文,博士生陳卓為論文的第一作者。
由于電動汽車和設(shè)備的能源需求嚴(yán)峻,開發(fā)高能量、長循環(huán)壽命的鋰離子電池具有重要意義。硅作為鋰電池的新一代負(fù)極材料,以其高達(dá)約4200 mAh g?1的理論比容量和豐富的自然資源而備受關(guān)注。然而,硅在充放電多孔過程中不可避免的劇烈體積膨脹(≈300%)不僅削弱了電極和集流體的接觸,還導(dǎo)致了不穩(wěn)定的固體電解質(zhì)間相(SEI)的形成。不可逆的容量退化和電池壽命的縮短被認(rèn)為是阻礙其商業(yè)化的主要限制。
一般情況下,采用碳?xì)ぐ补杓{米顆粒的方式來減輕硅膨脹問題。然而,在電池循環(huán)過程中,電解質(zhì)離子必須穿透碳?xì)?,然后與硅反應(yīng),導(dǎo)致動力學(xué)效果不佳。碳基質(zhì)也會存在不必要的結(jié)構(gòu)變化。此外,高負(fù)載硅納米顆粒的聚集會導(dǎo)致硅的利用效率低,從而影響電池的長期性能。迄今為止,開發(fā)和設(shè)計高利用率的硅碳負(fù)極材料仍然是一個巨大的挑戰(zhàn)。
鑒于此,黃文歡教授團(tuán)隊,采用ZnMo雙金屬雜化沸石咪唑酸鹽框架(HZIF-ZnMo),開發(fā)和設(shè)計了一種超低4.3 wt%的硅摻雜多孔MoC材料,并進(jìn)一步探索了其在高容量鋰離子電池中的潛力(在0.2 A g?1下進(jìn)行250次循環(huán)后,容量為976.6 mAh g?1)。研究表明,多孔MoC作為基底,不僅為鋰離子的快速擴(kuò)散提供了連續(xù)的通道,還使超低含量的硅在多孔基體中高度均勻分布,有效誘導(dǎo)硅在循環(huán)過程中實(shí)現(xiàn)自身容量的最大利用,研究成果發(fā)表于學(xué)術(shù)期刊Advanced Functional Materials,題為“Ultra-Low 4.3 wt% Silicon Thermal Reducing Doped Porous Si@MoC as Highly Capable and Stable Li-Ion Battery Anode”
文章要點(diǎn)
要點(diǎn)一:利用HZIF-ZnMo合成多孔Si@MoC(p-Si@MoC)
首先,利用水熱法合成了HZIF-ZnMo。隨后,通過將TEOS涂覆在HZIFZnMo上制備SiO2@HZIF-ZnMo,通過將正硅酸乙酯包覆在HZIF-ZnMo上制備SiO2@HZIF-ZnMo,通過簡單的熱還原,構(gòu)建了超低約4.3 wt%摻雜Si的MoC多孔結(jié)構(gòu)。反應(yīng)保留了ZnMo咪唑框架的多面體結(jié)構(gòu)并促進(jìn)Si在多孔MoC基體內(nèi)的均勻分散。此外,為了研究Si和多孔結(jié)構(gòu)在p-Si@MoC中的作用,我們還合成了多孔MoC(p-MoC)和非多孔MoC,并在后續(xù)的實(shí)驗(yàn)中組裝成電池,進(jìn)行比較。

圖2 多孔Si@MoC的表征
通過X射線近邊吸收光譜(XANES)和擴(kuò)展X射線吸收精細(xì)結(jié)構(gòu)譜(EXAFS),驗(yàn)證了Si摻雜在MoC基體中形成的Mo-Si鍵。通過密度泛函理論(DFT)的計算,揭示了多孔Si@MoC優(yōu)異的電導(dǎo)率和電子傳遞能力。
要點(diǎn)二:超低含量摻雜有效地誘導(dǎo)Si在p-Si@MoC中最大容量利用率
作為鋰離子電池負(fù)極材料,p-Si@MoC展現(xiàn)出了極小的電極/電解質(zhì)界面阻抗(Rs)和電荷轉(zhuǎn)移阻抗(Rct)。值得注意的是,優(yōu)化后p-Si@MoC負(fù)極在250次循環(huán)后顯示976.6 mAh g-1的放電容量,而p-MoC在250次循環(huán)后的放電容量為800.6 mAh g-1。根據(jù)p-Si@MoC中Si的含量(4.3 wt%)計算出硅的理論容量為180.6 mAh g-1。因此,我們認(rèn)為這種獨(dú)特的多孔結(jié)構(gòu)可以最大限度地利用Si摻雜來提高容量,且Si的容量利用率可達(dá)97.5%。
為了進(jìn)一步評估p-Si@MoC的循環(huán)穩(wěn)定性,在1 A g?1的電流密度下進(jìn)行500圈次循環(huán)后,p-Si@MoC的可逆容量保持在485.8 mAh g?1,庫侖效率(CE)為98.9%。相比之下,p-MoC和MoC在500次循環(huán)后的放電容量分別為385.1和249.6 mAh g?1。值得注意的是,p-Si@MoC負(fù)極的高放電容量歸因于硅的摻雜和基體的多孔結(jié)構(gòu)。與最近報道的不同成分和結(jié)構(gòu)的硅基負(fù)極材料相比,p-Si@MoC中硅的含量更低。更重要的是,p-Si@MoC具有優(yōu)異的電化學(xué)性能,但仍可與其他硅基陽極相媲美。

要點(diǎn)三:p-Si@MoC材料促進(jìn)鋰離子快速動力傳輸及原位儲鋰機(jī)制
p-Si@MoC材料引起具有的良好的孔結(jié)構(gòu)和高度均勻分散的Si,使p-Si@MoC在重復(fù)鋰化/脫鋰的過程中仍保持優(yōu)異的結(jié)構(gòu)穩(wěn)定性,電極表面薄且致密。MoC、p-MoC和p-Si@MoC電極在經(jīng)歷150次循環(huán)前后的電化學(xué)阻抗也證明了p-Si@MoC具有優(yōu)異的結(jié)構(gòu)穩(wěn)定性。對比循環(huán)前后多孔Si@MoC負(fù)極變化,膨脹率僅有11.6%。因其獨(dú)特的多孔結(jié)構(gòu),在整個過程中與硅保持著密切接觸,有效地吸收了循環(huán)過程中硅顆粒增加的體積,減輕體積膨脹。此外,對電化學(xué)動力學(xué)過程進(jìn)行研究,p-Si@MoC負(fù)極較高的鋰離子擴(kuò)散系數(shù)(6.44×10?7 cm2 s?1)證實(shí)了多孔MoC構(gòu)建的提供豐富的孔隙和離子開放通道,有利于電解液的滲透和鋰離子的擴(kuò)散。
原位XRD測試結(jié)果顯示,顯示了在放電和充電過程中多孔MoC基體變化(MoC + xLi+ + xe? → Mo + LixC,放電過程中的反應(yīng))和LixSi的形成與解離,與CV曲線一致,證實(shí)了電極在循環(huán)過程中電化學(xué)的高度可逆性。
