高比容量的硅/碳材料在嵌锂-脱锂过程中,Si的大体积膨胀容易引起电极粉碎和脱落问题,最终导致循环性能衰减和电池寿命缩短,通过设计新型硅/碳材料粘结剂可以有效提升电池循环性能。利用戊二醛(GA)的双醛基团与聚乙烯亚胺(PEI)和多巴胺(DPA)的胺基能发生反应生成亚胺键(—CN—)的原理,制备三维网状结构的粘结剂(PEI-GA-DPA),并用于高比容量的硅碳负极材料的性能研究。与纯PEI和商业化PVDF粘结剂对比,研究PEI-GA-DPA粘结剂的粘结性能和循环性能。结果表明:当PEI∶GA∶DPA的质量比为90∶0.2∶9.8时,制备的Si/C@PEI-GA-DPA电极的平均剥离强度为3.28N,高于Si/C@PVDF电极(1.43N)和Si/C@PEI电极(1.33N)。在0.5C电流密度循环100圈,Si/C@PEI-GA-DPA-2电池的充电比容量为540.8mAh/g,优于Si/C@PVDF电池(489.6mAh/g)和Si/C@PEI电池(412.0mAh/g)。因此,通过亚胺键的生成制备的粘结剂PEI-GA-DPA具有更优异的粘结力,能显著提升Si/C电极的循环性能。
During the lithiation and de-lithiation process of high specific capacity Si/C materials,the drastic volume changes of Si can cause electrode pulverization and delamination,ultimately causing the degradation of cycling performance and shortened battery lifespan.Battery cycling performance can be effectively enhanced by designing novel Si/C binders.In this paper,a three-dimensional network structure binder (PEI-GA-DPA) was prepared by forming the imine bond (—CN—) between the aldehyde groups (—CHO) of glutaraldehyde (GA) and the amine groups (—NH2) of poly-ethyleneimine (PEI) and dopamine (DPA).It was used for the performance study of Si/C anode materials with high specific capacity.The adhesion and cycling performance of the PEI-GA-DPA binder were studied and compared with pure PEI and commercial PVDF binders.The results showed that when the mass ratio of PEI∶GA∶DPA was 90∶0.2∶9.8,the designed Si/C@ PEI-GA-DPA electrode displayed the average peeling strength of 3.28N,which was higher than that of Si/C@PVDF electrode (1.43N) and Si/C@PEI (1.33N).after 100 cycles at 0.5C,the Si/C@PEI-GA-DPA-2 electrode exhibited a charging specific capacity of 540.8mAh/g,which was superior to that of Si/C@PVDF cell(489.6mAh/g) and Si/C@PEI (412.0mAh/g).The PEI-GA-DPA binder prepared by the generation of imine bonds possessed superior bonding strength and could significantly improve the cycling performance of Si/C electrodes.
