Abstract
Aluminum metal batteries are considered to be promising secondary batteries due to their high theoretical specific capacity. However, metallic aluminum suffers from corrosion, pulverization, and crushing problems in nonaqueous electrolytes. Constructing a solid-electrolyte interphase layer on the anode electrode has been confirmed to be the key to improving the cycling performance of rechargeable batteries. Herein, we demonstrate an Al metal anode with a physical protective layer achieved by a simple blade coating method. This modified Al metal anode demonstrates ultra-low voltage hysteresis (~25 mV at 0.1 mA cm−2 and ~30 mV at 1 mA cm−2), and superior stability (630 h at 0.1 mA cm−2 and 580 h at 1 mA cm−2). When coupling this anode with flake graphite cathode, the assembled full cells exhibit superior cycling stability (92 mAh g−1 maintained after 740 cycles at 0.1 A g−1). The current work presents a promising approach to stabilize Al metal anodes for next-generation rechargeable aluminum batteries.
由于铝金属电池具有很高的理论比容量,因此被认为是很有前途的二次电池。然而,金属铝在非水电解质中存在腐蚀、粉碎和破碎问题。在阳极电极上构建固体电解质相间层已被证实是提高充电电池循环性能的关键。在此,我们展示了一种带有物理保护层的铝金属阳极,该保护层是通过一种简单的叶片涂层方法实现的。这种改进型铝金属阳极具有超低电压滞后(0.1 mA cm-2 时约为 25 mV,1 mA cm-2 时约为 30 mV)和卓越的稳定性(0.1 mA cm-2 时为 630 小时,1 mA cm-2 时为 580 小时)。当这种阳极与鳞片石墨阴极耦合时,组装后的全电池表现出卓越的循环稳定性(在 0.1 A g-1 的条件下循环 740 次后仍能保持 92 mAh g-1)。目前的工作为稳定下一代铝充电电池的铝金属阳极提供了一种可行的方法。
