Description

Zinc-electrode forming and formatting
The present invention is concerned with electrically rechargeable batteries, metal-air batteries, zinc-electrodes for such batteries and especially electrically rechargeable Zinc-Air batteries.
Electrically rechargeable Zinc-Air batteries are famous for their energy density comparable to Li-ion batteries (at least 3 to 6 times more than Lead-Acid batteries) and their low cost per kWh (comparable or cheaper than Lead-Acid batteries and 5 to 10 times cheaper than Li-ion batteries).
These batteries would be very useful for many applications including Electric Vehicles and Stationary Electricity Storage if they could offer a sufficient service life. However so far nobody could offer this type of batteries with characteristics suitable for an application.
For example, considering the low cost of these batteries, we estimate that the minimum requirement for Electric Scooters would be something like: at least 70 Wh/kg Energy Density; 15 W/kg average Power Density and 6 months service life with 200 cycles.
According to a first aspect, the present invention relates to a method for preparing a porous Zinc-electrode for electrically rechargeable electrochemical cell such as Nickel-Zinc, Zinc-Silver, secondary Zn-MnO2 or Zinc-Air includes at least the steps of:
Step 1) Preparing an homogeneous Paste including at least:
a. A mixture of Zinc-oxide powder + Zinc powder in which advantageously the share of Zinc powder represents less than 20% in weight of the Zinc-oxide powder
b. A binder (for instance PVB or the same)
c. A binder solvent (ethyl-alcohol 90-96% in case of PVB binder)
Step 2) Pouring the said Paste into a mold
including at least a Current Collector ; conveniently with a tab on which an electrical lead is connected ; conveniently the mold has a flat rectangular form with the Current Collector in the middle of the electrode thickness, this ensemble forming an “Binder-Solvent Containing Electrode”
Step 3) Forming the Zinc-electrode
At this step, classically the “Binder-Solvent Containing Electrode” is then dried and placed into the final cell casing and then soaked with electrolyte.
However, the inventor got much better results by directly bathing the “Binder-Solvent Containing Electrode” into a bath of Water Based Solution or plain water, usually heated, whereby the binder solvent is diffusing into the bath and progressively replaced by the said Water Based Solution, its concentration is decreasing and the binder is precipitating “in-situ” forming a ZnO-binder homogeneous solid structure, rigid or like a gel, with millimeter long pores, making quite homogeneous active mass and pore distribution along the thickness and length of the electrode.
Conveniently, the mold is closed by a thin membrane letting the solvent and Water Based Solution go through before placing such closed “Binder-Solvent Containing Electrode” into the bath of the said Water Based Solution.
Conveniently the said thin membrane can be a membrane dissolving in strongly electrolyte (for ex. filter paper, <0.1mm thick)
Preferably the Water Based Solution is either:
a. plane water
b. KOH solution, 1-8M.
Preferably the Water Based Solution is a electrolyte WHEREBY helping the precipitation of the binder and making the electrode more rigid.
The invention also relates to a method of preparing a porous Zinc-electrode gives especially good results when the following additional Step4 is included after Step3, before Cell Assembly :
totally charge the electrode (for example at 10mA/cm2) in an electrolyte bath (for example KOH 4M), with at least 95%, preferably with at least 100% , and even preferably with at least 120% of theoretical capacity of the Zn-oxide powder it contains
WHEREBY all the Zinc-oxide powder is reduced to Zinc and the electrode becomes greyish and extremely active ; also, Zn being of higher density than ZnO, this operation creates a porous structure electrode and the zinc-oxide powder form nano-pores while being reduced.
In a preferred way of the present invention, Step4 is followed by the additional Step5 of having a first discharge operation, discharging totally or even preferably almost totally the electrode, to the stage that about 95% of Zn mass has been oxidized into ZnO. In a preferred way according to the present invention, the said first discharge operation is ended when the potential of the zinc-electrode is as low as approximately 0.25V vs a amalgamated Zn reference electrode, thus leaving some zinc particles around the current collector and in case a zinc amalgam is covering the current collector avoiding said zinc amalgam disintegration.
In a preferred way of the invention, a first method (FDO-a) to perform the said First Discharge Operation is done by placing the electrode in O2 containing environment. According to a preferred way, during this operation the reaction rate is regulated by measuring the electrode’s temperature and or reducing oxygen supply (for example with a screen) and or cooling the electrode (for example by bathing it into a water based bath) when it is above a temperature such as 55C, this procedure can last up to 50 days. During this operation preferably the reaction rate is adjusted so that the temperature of the electrode is maintained around 50 0C.
In another preferred way of the invention, a second method (FDO-b) to perform the said first discharge operation starts by partially discharging the electrode with a cathode counter electrode in an electrolyte bath down to about a State Of Charge of 75% of the total Zn+ZnO powder theoretical capacity)
WHEREBY the surface of the electrode is getting white (color of Zinc-oxide) and the electrode becomes less reactive, can be manipulated more easily and the said first oxidation step discharge operation can be continued till its end in the air such as described above. In this method, the said cathode counter electrode used to discharge the zinc electrode is preferably non reacting so that it can be used to successively discharge several zinc-electrodes.
In a third and preferred way according to the invention, the said first discharge operation is performed with sequences of the methods (FDO-a) and (FDO-b), such as discharging till 70% SOC with method (FDO-a) and continuing to discharge down to 5% SOC with method (FDO-b), WHEREBY preventing the risk of having the zinc-electrode self-igniting and burning in the O2 containing environment.
In a preferred way, O2 containing environment is plain air WHEREBY simplifying the preparation process or zinc-electrode.
These methods allow the preparation of especially active Zinc-electrodes which is improving many factors:
- charging overpotential decrease (with PVB overpotential is below 4mV while with PTFE overpotential it was below 10mV at the 3rd cycle at 15 mA/cm2 current density value);
- the electrode is so active that (i) zinc is depositing uniformly during charging and the surface facing the charging electrode is remaining flat and smooth (without any change) after cycling, and (ii) very little volume change occurs during charging-discharging cycles;
- the electrode is so active that it reduces dendrite growth;
In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, concentrations of binder, binder solvent are chosen to adjust the final electrode porosity and ZnO mass ratio in the foam/sponge (conveniently a 55%-65%-80% porosity and ca 0.7-1.5g of ZnO/cc) (for example 0.2-0.3ml PVB dissolved into 3-4-5ml C2H5OH 90-96% then mixed with 4-5g of ZnO to get an homogeneous paste).
In the present invention, by Active Mass it is meant the total mass of Zn, ZnO, binder and additives if any.
The “final electrode porosity” is defined as volume of solvent divided by the volume of Active Mass
In other words, the invention relates to a method for the preparation (first charging or “formatting”) of a zinc electrode newly made (never charged yet), thereafter the not-formatted zinc-electrode, whose active mass advantageously includes less than 20% in mass of zinc particles compared to the mass of zinc-oxide powder, to obtain a highly active zinc electrode,
said method comprising a step of totally charging in an electrolyte bath to a charging level of at least 95% of the theoretical capacity of the Zn-oxide + Zn powder contained in said not-formatted zinc-electrode.
