Embodiment 1

[0038] The three-dimensional copper foam was immersed in 2M NaOH solution and 0.1M (NH 4 ) 2 S 2 o 8 15 minutes in the mixture to form 3DCu(OH) 2 nanowire structure. After rinsing with deionized water and drying in a vacuum oven for 12 h, the 3D Cu(OH) 2 The foam is cut into discs. It was then placed in a tube furnace and heated to 180 °C under Ar flow for 2 h, then washed with 10% H 2 The airflow raised the temperature by 265 °C for 3.5 h. After allowing the tube furnace to cool down to room temperature, the resulting 3D CuNWs were quickly transferred into an argon-filled glove box. For the lithium infusion process, the Li foil was placed in a stainless steel container and heated to 350 °C. The 3D CuNWs are placed in contact with molten Li, where Li is injected into the structure to form the final 3D Li@CuLi electrode. Lithium melting process control time is less than 20 seconds.

Embodiment 2

[0040] Metal copper is sputtered on the three-dimensional copper foam by magnetron sputtering. The sputtering time is controlled to obtain nano-copper thin layers with different thicknesses. The Li foil was then placed in a stainless steel container and heated to 350 °C. The 3D Cu electrode is then placed in contact with the molten Li, where the Li is injected into the structure to form the final 3D Li@CuLi electrode. Lithium melting process control time is less than 20 seconds.

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium ion batteries, and in particular relates to a three-dimensional metal lithium negative electrode and a preparation method and application thereof. The three-dimensional metallic lithium negative electrode includes a three-dimensional foamed copper framework, and metallic copper nanowires are grown on the surface of the foamed copper. Using copper nanowires to modify the three-dimensional (3D) foamed copper framework, a "lithophilic" surface is obtained, thereby melting metal lithium into the metal framework, and realizing a three-dimensional metal lithium anode. In addition, in the process of melting lithium, metal lithium will react with copper to form Li-Cu alloy. The invention can suppress the formation of dendrite lithium in the metal lithium negative electrode, and realize the stable circulation of the metal lithium negative electrode. Compared with conventional metal lithium sheets, the invention can make the metal lithium battery have better cycle stability and higher rate performance. It is of great value to realize the commercial application of metal lithium battery.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium ion batteries, and in particular relates to a three-dimensional lithium-friendly skeleton structure used for metal lithium negative electrode protection. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of battery vehicles and large-scale energy storage systems, the development of lithium batteries with high energy density has received extensive attention. Due to the high theoretical specific capacity (3680mAh / g) and low electrochemical potential (-3.040vs SHE) of the metal lithium negative electrode, the lithium battery (metal lithium battery) using metal lithium as the negative electrode has a high energy density. It has broad application prospects in electric vehicles and large-scale energy storage systems. However, due to the presence of dendrite lithium in metal lithium anodes, the huge volume change and other problems hinder its commercial application. [0003] To address the risk ...
