Abstract

With the wide application of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) in different fields, safety accidents occur frequently. Therefore, it is necessary to monitor the thermal runaway gas for an early warning. In this article, the adsorption properties of the characteristic gases of LIBs thermal runaway gases are studied by density functional theory (DFT). The adsorption structure of TM (Co/Rh/Ir)-decorated HfS2 (TM@HfS2) is established, and its adsorption properties for C2H4, CH4, and CO are studied. The adsorption energy, charge transfer, band, DOS, charge difference density, work function, and recovery time are discussed in detail. The results show that Ir@HfS2 has the strongest adsorption performance for C2H4 and CO, so C2H4 and CO can be stably adsorbed on the surface of the Ir@HfS2 monolayer. The adsorption energy of CH4 on Co@HfS2 is stronger than those of Rh@HfS2 and Ir@HfS2, but the adsorption energy is still very small. By applying biaxial strain to Co@HfS2, we found that the adsorption energy increases with the increase in negative strain. This study provides a theoretical basis for the regulation of the adsorption properties of HfS2 by different transition metals.
