Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present application relates to the field of energy storage device, and more specifically relates to a prussian blue analogue positive electrode material, a preparation method therefor and an electrochemical energy storage device.

BACKGROUND

A prussian blue analogue positive electrode material is commonly obtained by co-precipitating a transition metal cyanide anion (M′(CN)₆^m−) and a transition metal cation (Mⁿ⁺) in an aqueous solution. Carbon ligands in cyanide groups complex with a transition metal M′ to form a hexa-coordinate octahedral structure M′(CN)₆, un-coordinated nitrogen ligands in the M′(CN)₆ octahedron also complex with a transition metal M to form a hexa-coordinate octahedral structure M(NC)₆, therefore, the M′(CN)₆ octahedron and the M(NC)₆ octahedron connect alternately with each other and form a crystal structure of a three-dimensional skeleton (as shown in the left figure of FIG. 1). At the same time, a M′(CN)₆ cavity is easily formed in the crystal of the prussian blue analogue positive electrode material (as shown in the right figure of FIG. 1) because of charge balance. For example, in a crystal of a prussian blue analogue positive electrode material which is obtained by co-precipitating a +2-valent transition metal cation M²⁺ and a [M′(CN)₆]⁴⁻ anion (in which the valence of M′ is also +2) with four negative charges, a mole ratio of M to M′ should be 2:1 to maintain charge balance, therefore, a proportion of the M′(CN)₆ cavities is up to 50% (see table 1).

When an alkali metal cation or an alkaline-earth metal cation exists in the crystal structure of the prussian blue analogue positive electrode material, because a cyanide group does not coordinate with such the metal cation, the alkali metal cation or the alkaline-earth metal cation can play a role of maintaining charge balance, thereby decreasing the proportion of the M′(CN)₆ cavities in the crystal structure of the prussian blue analogue positive electrode material. Even so, the un-coordinated nitrogen ligands in the M′(CN)₆ octahedron have very strong complex capability with the transition metal M, and the product has a very small solubility product constant (K_sp) in an aqueous solution, therefore, a precipitation will occur immediately once a transition metal cyanide anion (M′(CN)₆^m−) and a transition metal cation (Mⁿ⁺) are mixed, so that the proportion of the M′(CN)₆ cavities in the crystal structure of the prussian blue analogue positive electrode material will still be very high.

As shown in the right figure of FIG. 1, in a unit in which a M′(CN)₆ cavity exists, a transition metal M only has five adjacent nitrogen ligands to coordinate therewith, and one coordinating site thereof left is coordinated by water (a coordinated water, also referred to as a bound water), then a MN₅O octahedral structure is formed. In this way, six MN₅O octahedrons which each contain the coordinated water will be formed around each M′(CN)₆ cavity; if the proportion of the M′(CN)₆ cavities is increased continuously, a MN₄O₂ octahedron may be formed. At the same time, a lattice water (also referred to as an interstitial water) also exists in a channel of a prussian blue analogue positive electrode material crystal structure. The interstitial water does not participate in the coordination with M, and may exist in the channel alone, or may form a hydrogen bond with a coordinated water.

A molecular formula of a prussian blue analogue positive electrode material crystal may be represented as A_xM_c[M′(CN)₆]_1-y(b-H₂O)_6y.□_y.(i-H₂O)_z, where, A may be an alkali metal cation or an alkaline-earth metal cation; M and M′ are transition metals and may be Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cr or the like; is a M′(CN)₆ cavity; b-H₂O is a coordinated water; i-H₂O is an interstitial water; 0<c≤1, 0<x<2, 0<y<1, 0≤z≤16. Table 1 lists the proportion of M′(CN)₆ cavities in a prussian blue analogue positive electrode material crystal in different situations, where, the coordinated water and the interstitial water in a molecular formula are both omitted.

In a prussian blue analogue positive electrode material, an existence of each cavity forms six coordinated waters and leads to an increased water absorption performance of a positive electrode material. The interstitial water which exists in a channel of a prussian blue analogue positive electrode material crystal structure is easy to form a hydrogen bond with a coordinated water, thereby leading to an increased difficulty in interstitial water removal. If the interstitial water is not completely removed, the interstitial water will occupy some of the space in the channel of a prussian blue analogue positive electrode material crystal structure, block the transmission of an alkali metal or an alkaline-earth metal ion (such as Na⁺ or Li⁺). If the interstitial water is not completely removed, the interstitial water will dissociate into an electrolyte, and side reactions will occur between the interstitial water and the electrolyte, leading to consumption of the electrolyte, instability of a negative electrode SEI film and an increase of impedance, causing bad results (such as a decay of capacity and swelling, etc.) in an electrochemical energy storage device.

Therefore, how to remove the interstitial water has become one of main difficulties in forming a prussian blue analogue positive electrode material. Generally, powders of a prussian blue analogue positive electrode material or an electrode plate prepared by the prussian blue analogue positive electrode material are placed in a vacuum drying oven and heated under vacuum for a long time, so as to remove the interstitial water. However, after taken out from the vacuum drying oven, the powders of the prussian blue analogue positive electrode material or the electrode plate prepared by the prussian blue analogue positive electrode material will re-absorb the water in the air easily because of the strong water absorbability of the material. If the preparing process of the electrode material is performed in a drying room, the cost of the preparing process will increase greatly, and a mass production can not be performed.

In view of the problems existing in the background of the present disclosure, an object of the present disclosure is to provide a prussian blue analogue positive electrode material, a preparation method therefor and an electrochemical energy storage device.
