(D-2) by Titanium or the particle and SiO of copperyMzIt repeats to mix and crush, obtain to mechanochemistry the side of matrix Method;
(D-3) by SiOyMzIt is mixed with the carbon precursor for making high crystalline carbon dust be carbonized by heating, under reducing atmosphere In SiOyMzThe method that surface passes through the coating carbon precursor of heat resolve.
If the method as shown in above-mentioned D-1 is described in detail, it is used as carbon, can be used petroleum coke, pitch coke The hydrocarbon such as charcoal, methane, propane, benzene, acetylene, cellulose, polyacrylonitrile (PAN), pitch fiber etc. are used as the people of its starting material Make carbon.Additionally, it is preferred that by carbon obtained by being thermally decomposed these starting materials in 1200 DEG C ~ 3000 DEG C, in addition, more preferably Pass through carbon obtained by being handled in 2500 DEG C ~ 3000 DEG C of graphitization temperature.In addition, also can be by furnace black, channel carbon black, hot tearing The carbon blacks class such as method carbon black, lampblack is used for starting material.
In addition, as carbon, carbon obtained by graphite crushes will be particularly preferably thermally expanded, furthermore it is preferred that using the six of carbon The propagation direction of angle wire side is tubular or planar carbon material.Specifically, can be by carbon nano-fiber, carbon nanotube, graphite Alkene is independent or mixes a variety of uses.
In addition, by SiOyMzThe hitherto known carbon material of middle addition and in the case of improving electric conductivity, due to Shape of particle is close to spherical shape, so need to improve the ratio added in electrode, but sometimes due to energy density in this case It reduces, it is advantageous to use the long wealthy carbon material bigger than (length/diameter or plane/thickness).Therefore, for SiOyMzImparting is led The carbon material used under electrical purpose is preferably grown wealthy than big carbon material.Can be single layer as such carbon material The MWCNT (multilayer carbon nanotube) that SWCNT (single-layer carbon nano-tube) or multilayer are formed, for example, can by a diameter of 5nm ~ 20nm, Same diameter, the carbon pipe or carbon fiber that length is Asia mm are used in the carbon material that length is 5 ~ 10 μm.But it is even if wealthy using length Than high carbon material, if the mixing ratio of these carbon fibers increases, compression forming can not be improved or roll when forming electrode by having The tendency of compact density.It is therefore preferable that relative to mixture quality by the content of carbon nano-fiber, carbon nanotube, graphene etc. Control is less than 7wt%.
Herein, arc discharge, laser abrasion, CVD method (chemical vapor-phase growing can be used in carbon nano-fiber, carbon nanotube Method) etc. various methods synthesized, such as can be used Showa Denko K. K gas-phase growth of carbon fibre (VGCF) etc..Make For CVD method as described above, in addition to the substrates method such as alcohol CVD method or SG-CVD methods, it is possible to use DIPS methods, CoMoCAT methods, The gas-bearing formations flow methods such as HiPCO methods, super growth CVD method.
In addition, as graphene, CVD method, the preparation method of distillation using SiC single crystal, stripping method (inclusion can be used Reason stripping or chemical stripping or they be used in combination) the methods of obtain.In the case of especially with CVD method, it can exist in advance SiOyMzThe coating organo-metallic compound (such as ferrocene etc.) containing metallic element as catalyst in surface, formation passes through The nanoscopic catalyst particles that heat or photodegradation generate are kind to there is the particle of the catalyst particle in surface adhesion, on one side So that the hydrocarbon stream of high concentration is flowed upward by vertical lower, carries out 350 DEG C less than 1500 DEG C of heating on one side It is carbonized in fluid bed.At this point, especially by keeping hydrocarbon plasmarized, can be generated in a low temperature of 800 DEG C or less, if The temperature, then can be in the SiO as precursoryMzInside inhibits the uneven of silicon and silica, so as to synthesize suitable high current The negative electrode active material of characteristic.In addition, after being coated with carbon, for the transition metal species as catalyst remaining, acid can be passed through Processing is washed to remove.
Additionally, it is preferred that by being chemically modified to above-mentioned carbon material surface, improve affine with electrolyte or adhesive Property.In this case, such as by strong acid treatment surface, carbonyl is assigned, thus improves the wetability with electrolyte solvent.By This, improve assembling electrochemical battery when impregnation from electrolyte to cathode, can be obtained preparation time shorten effect or improve with The effect of the adhesiveness of adhesive, so also it can be expected that keeping occurring the expansion of the negative electrode active material caused by repeating charge and discharge The effect being connect with electronics when shrinking.
Then, the SiO described below to experience stabilizing processyMzMethod (the alkali metal ion of alkali metal ion is inserted into+R It is inserted into process).Below using use lithium as alkali metal elements A in case of illustrate.
Specifically, can be used dissolved with highconcentration alkyllithium high-purity, impregnate in non-polar organic solvent SiOyMzThe method of+R.At this point, can 1mol/L or more be set as the concentration of lithium alkylide, as the lithium alkylide, such as positive fourth can be used Base lithium or 2- butyl lithiums, tert-butyl lithium etc..In addition, the non-polar organic solvent as high-purity, such as can be molten by pentane It is selected during liquid, hexane solution, n-heptane solution, normal octane solution, n -nonane solution, n -nonane solution etc. are a kind at least arbitrary. In addition, although dip time at this time depends on SiOyMzThe grain size of+R, but preferably at least impregnate 2 hours or more, more preferably impregnate 12 hours or more.But in the case where dip time at this time is set as 144 hours or more, due to reaching equilibrium state, institute Even if unchanged if to impregnate longer time dipping effect.
In addition, as to SiOyMzThe method that alkali metal ion is inserted into+R, preferably doubles as above-mentioned pulverizing process, in ball milling It is carried out as pulverizing process in machine.At this point, organic solvent, since surface tension is low, the dispersibility of grinding bodies is high compared with water, institute By being inserted into alkali metal ion, to make the surface of powder be hardened and crisp, thus can be obtained while improving crush efficiency small Powder.
In addition, as negative electrode active material A is obtainedxSiOyMzSiO forwardly can be used in the method for+RyMzIt is used in+R The method that contact reaction method is inserted into alkali metal ion.
Specifically, by keeping making lithium metal particle or metallic lithium foil and SiOyMz+ R physical contact state, can make from The lithium of sub- state diffuses to SiOyMzIn+R.At this time, or mechanism identical with local cell, in this case, to promote Reaction, preferably in SiOyMzThere are electrolyte between+R and lithium metal.In this case, the character of electrolyte can be liquid, but May be solid electrolyte or polymer dielectric.In SiOyMzIn the case of the electronic conductivity shortcoming of+R, due to sometimes Decomposition product is in SiO obtained by being reduced decomposition because of a part for electrolyteyMzThe surfaces+R form the quilt for hindering lithium ion diffusion Film, it is advantageous to be SiO in advanceyMz+ R assigns electronic conductivity.Below to the details of the method for electronic conductivity as imparting It is described.
In addition, the insertion using catalytic alkali metal ion illustrated in the present invention can form following negative electricities Implement after pole piece material.In addition, using the insertion method of such catalytic alkali metal ion because in assembling electrochemical battery It is preceding implementation and can be described as pre-doping.
In addition, as negative electrode active material A is obtainedxSiOyMzSiO forwardly can also be used in the method for+RyMzMake in+R The method for being electrochemically inserted into alkali metal ion.
