Abstract

The invention discloses a method for electrodepositing a lithium-copper alloy in an ionic liquid system, which relates to a method for electrodepositing the lithium-copper alloy. The method solves the problems that the conventional smelting method for preparing the lithium-copper alloy cannot control the lithium element content easily and has high energy consumption. The method comprises the following: step one, adding LiBF4, Cu(BF4)2 and an additive into BMIMBF4 in turn to prepare an electrolyte; and step two, immerging an anode material and a cathode material into the electrolyte, and adopting a constant current mode and controlling the current density and the electrodepositing time to realize the preparation of the lithium-copper alloy, wherein the two steps are performed in a glove box. The method has the advantages of concise process, simple equipment and low energy consumption; the metal lithium content in the lithium-copper alloy is adjusted and controlled by adjusting components and electrodepositing technological parameters of the electrolyte; the metal lithium content is controllable; and the atomic mass percent content is 7 to 40 percent. Simultaneously, the method realizes co-deposition of lithium and copper which have large electrode potential differences; and the obtained lithium-copper alloy can be used as a cathode material for a lithium ion battery.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for electrodepositing lithium copper alloy. Background technique [0002] At present, research on lithium-copper alloys is mainly used in two major fields. One is lithium-copper alloys with high lithium content, which mainly utilizes the shielding effect of lithium on neutrons and is used as shielding materials for nuclear reactors. The other is to add trace amounts of Lithium-copper alloys of lithium are mainly used as high-conductivity, high-strength, high-wear-resistant alloys. Japan, the United States, and the Soviet Union are all studying lithium-copper alloys, in which the mass fraction of lithium is between 0.01% and 1.3%. head material etc. It has been reported that lithium-copper alloys can be well applied in fusion reactors; after adding a small amount of lithium and other elements to copper-based superconducting alloys, materials with better superconducting properties and superior processing properties can...
