The stabilization mechanism of Li3N in DMF solvent is found closely related with its dehydrogenation energy, which is much larger than other commonly used solvents such as N-methy-2-pyrrolidone (NMP), dimethylacetamide (DMAC), dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and Acetonitrile (ACN). As a result, researchers successfully manufactured a soft package lithium ion hybrid capacitors, which exhibits excellent energy density and power density as high as 130.1 Wh/kg and 5056.9 W/kg based on all active materials. view more

氮化锂是一种备受关注的正极预锂化添加剂, 可用于弥补在首次充电过程中发生在负极侧的不可逆锂损失, 从而提高储能器件的比能量。但是, 在电极制造过程中, 氮化锂与N-甲基-2-吡咯烷酮(NMP)、二甲基亚砜(DMSO)、乙腈(CAN)、N,N-二甲基乙酰胺(DMAC)等常用溶剂会发生副反应, 使含氮化锂电极的规模制备较为困难, 限制了其推广应用。近期一项工作发现使用N,N-二甲基甲酰胺(DMF)作为匀浆溶剂可以制备出稳定的含有氮化锂的浆料, 并通过匀浆涂布工艺制备出含氮化锂的电极, 从而解决该问题。该电极可以实现对锂离子超级电容器负极的预锂化, 大幅提高了器件的比能量, 并保持了出色的倍率性能和循环稳定性, 在1万次充放电循环后的能量保持率90%。该技术有望在其他以低首效材料(硬炭、硅等)为负极的电池体系中获得应用。

研究相关的论文题为:“DMF stabilized Li3N slurry for manufacturing self-prelithiatable lithium-ion capacitor”, 近期在线发表于Science Bulletin, 由中国科学院大连化学物理研究所张洪章研究员和李先锋研究员分别担任通讯作者撰写。研究者研究了常用极性溶剂, 发现α-H的存在是影响溶剂在氮化锂表面不稳定的主要因素。
