Hereinafter, the present invention be will be described in further detail so that being more clearly understood that the present invention.
Should be understood that and the word used in the present specification and claims or term are not construed in everyday words Implication defined in allusion quotation.Will be further understood that the implication that can suitably limit word or term based on the present inventor To explain the principle of the present invention best, it is construed to word or term to have with them in the correlation technique of the present invention and technology The implication that implication in the background of thought is consistent.
The cathode active material of the present invention can comprise carbon based particles;Described carbon based particles grows Silicon nanowires;And on the surface of described carbon based particles and described silicon nanowires formed carbon coating.
According to an embodiment of the invention, the change in volume produced during discharge and recharge can be by carbon based particles Upper direct growth silicon nanowires suppresses.It addition, because can be by forming carbon on the surface of carbon based particles and silicon nanowires Coating increases the adhesion between described silicon nanowires and described carbon based particles further, it is possible to prevent silicon nanowires Depart from, and the performance of battery can be improved further by providing electric conductivity.
Specifically, the schematic diagram of negative active core-shell material as shown in Figure 1, bearing according to an embodiment of the invention Pole active material may be embodied in the silicon nanowires 11 of growth in carbon based particles 12 and in silicon nanowires 11 and carbon based particles 12 Surface on formed carbon coating 13.
According to an embodiment of the invention, can be by coating carbon based particles 12 and silicon nanowires partially or completely The surface of 11 forms carbon coating 13.But, because being formed by all surfaces of coating carbon based particles 12 and silicon nanowires 11 Carbon coating 13 can increase the adhesion between silicon nanowires 11 and carbon based particles 12 further, thus prevents silicon nanowires 11 from taking off From, it is possible to improve the performance of secondary cell.
Can will can embed or the material with carbon element of deintercalate lithium ions is used as the carbon back that uses in embodiments of the present invention Particle.Described carbon based particles can comprise any one in carbon-based powder, white carbon black, native graphite and Delanium or its Two or more mixture.Described carbon based particles can have the mean diameter (D of 10 μm~30 μm50)、2.0m2/ g~5.0m2/ The specific surface area of g and the pressed density of 1.5g/cc~1.85g/cc under the pressure of 12mpa~16mpa.
In the present invention, the mean diameter (D of described carbon particle50) can be defined as at the 50% of accumulation particle diameter distribution Particle diameter.Such as, according to the mean diameter (D of the carbon particle of an embodiment of the invention50) can be by using laser diffraction Method is measured.Described laser diffractometry generally can be measured the particle diameter of pattern of sub-micron level to several millimeters and can obtain and can highly repeat And high-resolution result.
It addition, the specific surface area of described carbon based particles can be by the special Teller (Brunauer-of mono-angstrom of prunus mume (sieb.) sieb.et zucc. of Bu Lunuo Emmett-Teller) (BET) method is measured.Such as, described specific surface area can be used according to nitrogen adsorption methods by 6 BET method Lacunarity analysis instrument (Belsorp-II mini is manufactured by Bell Japan Inc.) is measured.
Silicon nanowires according to an embodiment of the invention can be to comprise the diameter and height having in nanometer range The concept of the silicon of the linear formula of aspect ratio uses and unrelated with its preparation method.Therefore, in the concept of described silicon nanowires In can comprise silicon nanorod or nano-tube.
According to an embodiment of the invention, there is the described carbon based particles of described silicon nanowires based on growth thereon Gross weight, in described silicon nanowires, the amount of silicon can be in the range of 5 weight %~30 weight %.Amount at silicon is more than above-mentioned scope In the case of, because the silicon of excess covers described carbon based particles, so specific surface area can increase, thus promote dividing of electrolyte Solve reaction.In the case of the amount of silicon is less than above-mentioned scope, receive because silicon may not be grown in described carbon based particles completely Rice noodle, so the life characteristic of secondary cell may deterioration.
Silicon nanowires according to embodiment of the present invention can have about 10nm~the diameter of about 100nm and about 100nm~ The length of about 5 μm.It addition, described nano wire can be linearly or nonlinearly, wherein said nano wire can its all or Bending or tortuous on partial-length.Generally, although silicon (Si) shows high lithium capacity, but Si is before and after reacting with lithium, i.e. in charge and discharge The change in volume of more than 300% may be caused during electricity.Described change in volume can be grown by Direct Three-dimensional in carbon based particles Nano wire eliminates.
But, during growth has the carbon based particles of nano wire thereon, the life-span of battery is likely to be due at serosity preparation or electricity When during the operation of pond, adhesion between nano wire with carbon based particles is low, disengaging and the light current of silicon nanowires contact and reduce.
Because forming carbon coating on the silicon nanowires of growth and the surface of described carbon based particles in carbon based particles, so Other electric conductivity can be provided, and the combination between carbon based particles and silicon nanowires can be strengthened to prevent according to filling simultaneously During the change in volume of electric discharge, silicon nanowires departs from from carbon based particles.Therefore, the present invention can provide the excellent longevity of secondary cell Life characteristic and charge/discharge capacity characteristic.
It addition, in negative active core-shell material according to the embodiment of the present invention, the thickness of described carbon coating can be at 5nm ~in the range of 50nm.In the case of the thickness of carbon coating is less than 5nm, carbon coating the effect that the electrical conductivity caused increases can Being inessential and may be high with the reactivity of electrolyte during coating negative active core-shell material.Accordingly, it is possible at the beginning of Jiang Diing Beginning efficiency.In the case of the thickness of carbon coating is more than 50nm, because the thickness of carbon coating may excessively increase, thus serve as lithium The barrier of ion migration, therefore resistance may increase.
