以羧甲基纤维素钠(CMC)/丁苯橡胶(SBR)、聚丙烯酸(PAA)、丙烯酸衍生物多元共聚物(LA136D)为粘结剂,多孔硅/石墨复合材料作为负极分别组装了锂离子半电池,研究了不同结构粘结剂对复合材料电化学性能的影响。结果表明,以PAA作为粘结剂的复合材料首次放电比容量为564.98mAh/g,初始库伦效率为84.6%,经过120次循环后放电比容量为437.70mAh/g,相较于第二圈(放电比容量507.97mAh/g)容量保持率为86.2%。相比其他粘结剂,PAA的三维交联网络结构赋予复合材料材料更强的机械强度和结构稳定性,能够有效缓解硅在充放电过程中因体积膨胀引起的结构破坏。
Sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC)/styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR),polyacrylic acid (PAA) and an acrylic-derived multi-component copolymer (LA136D) were used as binders to assemble lithium-ion half-cells with porous silicon/graphite composites as the anode material.The effects of different binder structures on the electrochemical performance of the composite materials were investigated.The results showed that the composite using PAA as the binder exhibited an initial discharge capacity of 564.98mAh/g and an initial coulombic efficiency of 84.6%.After 120 cycles,the discharge capacity remained at 437.70mAh/g,corresponding to a capacity retention of 86.2% compared to the second cycle capacity of 507.97mAh/g.Compared to other binders,the three-dimensional cross-linked network structure of PAA provided the composite with enhanced mechanical strength and structural stability,effectively alleviating the structural degradation caused by the volume expansion of silicon during charge-discharge cycles.
