Example 1
(1) 1G of PVDF was weighed into a glass bottle, 19gNMP was added, and stirred for 4 hours until PVDF was dissolved and dispersed uniformly, thereby preparing a PDVF solution.
(2) Weighing 0.5g of calcium fluoride and 0.5g of barium fluoride in a glass bottle, adding 4g of PVDF solution prepared in the step (1), and stirring for 12 hours until the calcium fluoride and the barium fluoride are uniformly dispersed in the PVDF solution, thereby obtaining the anti-corrosion coating.
(3) And (3) scraping the anticorrosive paint prepared in the step (2) on the surface of the cleaned aluminum foil, wherein the scraping thickness is 30 mu m, and drying overnight in a vacuum oven at 60 ℃ to obtain the aluminum foil decorated with the anticorrosive paint, which is marked as F-Al.
Performance test:
The electrolyte is LiTFSI base electrolyte, wherein the solvent is DMC (dimethyl carbonate), EMC (ethylmethyl carbonate) and EC (ethylene carbonate), the electrolyte is LiTFSI, the mass ratio of DMC, EMC and EC is 1:1:1, and the concentration of LiTFSI is 1mol/L.
Cutting F-Al prepared in the step (3) into pole pieces with the diameter of 16mm, and comparing with unmodified aluminum foil. Fig. 1 is a photograph of an aluminum foil modified with an anti-corrosion coating and an unmodified aluminum foil, and according to fig. 1, it can be seen that a layer of substance, namely the anti-corrosion coating, can be clearly observed on the surface of the modified aluminum foil.
The aluminum foil decorated with the anti-corrosion coating was subjected to a bending 5000 test, the test results are shown in fig. 2. According to fig. 2, after 5000 bending tests, the surface of the aluminum foil modified with the anti-corrosion coating has no obvious change, and the anti-corrosion coating is excellent in adhesion and is not easy to fall off.
And assembling the prepared F-Al pole piece into a Li/F-Al half battery, and assembling the Li/Al half battery by adopting an Al pole piece with an unmodified anti-corrosion coating, and carrying out a constant potential anodic polarization experiment, wherein the polarization voltage is 4.2V, the polarization time is 18000s, and a test curve is shown in figure 3. As can be seen from fig. 3, the corrosion current of the aluminum foil assembled half cell (Li/F-Al half cell) coated with the corrosion-resistant coating rapidly decreased and reached equilibrium over time, indicating no corrosion occurred. The polarization current of the aluminum foil assembled half cell (Li/Al) without the modified anti-corrosion coating is unstable with time, which indicates that corrosion occurs.
The cell after the constant potential anodic polarization experiment is disassembled, and the surfaces of the Al pole piece and the F-Al pole piece before and after polarization are observed by adopting an optical microscope, wherein the optical microscope photograph is shown in figure 4. The surfaces of the Al pole piece and the F-Al pole piece before and after the polarization are characterized by adopting a Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM), and the SEM picture is shown in figure 5. The surfaces of the Al pole piece and the F-Al pole piece before and after polarization are characterized by adopting X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and the XPS is shown in figure 6. It can be seen from fig. 4 and 5 that the surface of the polarized F-Al sheet is uniformly covered by the corrosion-resistant coating, no corrosion occurs, and a large number of pits appear on the surface of the polarized Al sheet without the corrosion-resistant coating, and that the metal peak of Al exists after the polarization of the Al sheet without the corrosion-resistant coating, which indicates that corrosion occurs, and that the peak of Al 3+ exists before and after the polarization of the F-Al sheet with the corrosion-resistant coating, which indicates that no corrosion occurs.
Example 2
(1) 1G of CMC was weighed into a glass bottle, 19g H 2 O was added thereto, and stirred for 4 hours until CMC was dissolved and dispersed uniformly, thereby preparing a CMC aqueous solution.
(2) Weighing 0.8g of strontium fluoride and 0.2g of aluminum fluoride in a glass bottle, adding 4g of CMC solution prepared in the step (1), and stirring for 12 hours until the strontium fluoride and the aluminum fluoride are uniformly dispersed in the CMC solution, thereby obtaining the anti-corrosion coating.
(3) And (3) scraping the anticorrosive paint prepared in the step (2) on the surface of the cleaned aluminum foil, wherein the scraping thickness is 20 mu m, and drying overnight in a vacuum oven at 60 ℃ to prepare the aluminum foil decorated with the anticorrosive paint, which is marked as F-Al.

The electrolyte is LiTFSI base electrolyte, wherein the solvent is DMC (dimethyl carbonate), EMC (ethylmethyl carbonate) and EC (ethylene carbonate), the electrolyte is LiTFSI, the mass ratio of DMC, EMC and EC is 1:1:1, and the concentration of LiTFSI is 1mol/L.
Cutting F-Al and pure aluminum foil prepared in the step (3) into pole pieces with the length of 2 multiplied by 1cm, adopting a reference electrode as a lithium foil, adopting a counter electrode as a lithium foil, carrying out a three-electrode constant potential anodic polarization experiment on a working electrode as F-Al or Al, carrying out EIS impedance spectrum test on the working electrode before and after polarization, wherein the polarization curve is shown in figure 7, and the impedance spectrum is shown in figure 8.
As can be seen from fig. 7, the polarization current of the pure aluminum foil is extremely unstable, this change indicates that the natural oxide film on the surface of the aluminum foil is broken, the internal aluminum is exposed to the electrolyte and continuously loses electrons under the action of high potential to be oxidized, so that the oxidation current is changed rapidly, which indicates that corrosion occurs, while the oxidation current of the aluminum foil modified with the anti-corrosion coating is reduced with the increase of time, the stable fluctuation of the oxidation current is small, which indicates that no corrosion occurs.
As can be seen from fig. 8, the Rct of the polarized pure aluminum foil is significantly reduced, and the diffusion of the corrosion product from the surface of the Al foil to the electrolyte results in a reduction of the impedance of the passivation film, which indicates that the Al foil is corroded, whereas the aluminum foil modified with the corrosion-resistant coating not only significantly reduces Rct, but also reduces Rct slightly after polarization, which is probably caused by the further uniform dispersion of AlF 3 during polarization, so as to further improve interface contact.
Example 3
(1) 1G of PVDF was weighed into a glass bottle, 19gNMP was added thereto, and stirred for 4 hours until PVDF was dissolved and dispersed uniformly, thereby preparing a PVDF solution.
(2) Weighing 0.3g of aluminum hydroxide and 0.7g of aluminum fluoride in a glass bottle, adding 4g of PVDF solution prepared in the step (1), and stirring for 12 hours until the aluminum hydroxide and the aluminum fluoride are uniformly dispersed in the PVDF solution, so as to prepare the anti-corrosion coating slurry.
(3) And (3) spreading the sizing agent prepared in the step (2) on the surface of the cleaned aluminum foil, and drying the aluminum foil in a vacuum oven with the spreading thickness of 20 mu m and 60 ℃ overnight to prepare the aluminum foil decorated with the anti-corrosion coating, which is marked as F-Al.
