[technical field]
The present invention relates to field of batteries, particularly by providing novel coating layer and coating technology to improve performance of lithium ion battery with guard electrode material and the electrode conductivuty increasing lithium ion battery.
[background technology]
Many modern comforts all need battery as mobile electric energy.Because the packaged type energy, need the equipment of electric energy such as computer, flashlight, wrist-watch and miscellaneous equipment just can be of portable form.Even when battery is not the main energy sources of an equipment, but this equipment still can need battery.Such as, most of automobile provides major impetus by burns gasoline, but these automobiles still need a battery, to make the engine start of automobile.Because to the concern of environment, automobile also uses battery to replace gasoline as main power source now gradually.Therefore, battery and battery technology become more and more general and important.
There is various types of rechargeable battery on the market.The basic conception of rechargeable battery is exactly the electrochemical cell that chemical energy is reversibly converted to electric energy by them.Each battery unit has a positive terminal (positive pole), and electronics through an external circuit, flows to a negative pole end (negative pole) from this positive terminal.Electronics displacement generation current.Electric current can be provided for the device be connected between positive pole and negative pole.
Because lithium ion battery has certain advantage than other types rechargeable battery, they are more and more welcome, are widely used in the equipment such as such as mobile phone, computer and electric automobile.Fig. 1 shows lithium ion battery 10 and the operation principle thereof of prior art.The primary clustering of lithium ion battery 10 comprises negative pole 100, positive pole 101, electrolyte 102 and barrier film 103.
Barrier film 103 as separating negative pole 100 and positive pole 101, thus prevents the short circuit between negative pole 100 and positive pole 101.Positive pole 101 is cobalt acid lithium normally; Negative pole 100 is graphite or tin-based material normally.In lithium ion battery 10 charging process, lithium ion can be discharged into electrolyte 102 from positive pole 101, then moves to negative pole 100, the right namely from the left side of Fig. 1 to Fig. 1.Electronics also spontaneously moves to negative pole 100 from positive pole 101 by an external circuit.In discharge process, move to positive pole 101 at the lithium ion of negative pole 100 and electrons from negative pole 100, namely on the right of Fig. 1 to the left side of Fig. 1.For the charging and discharging process of lithium ion battery, the movement between negative pole and positive pole of lithium ion and electronics is very important.
In the art, it is desirable to produce the lithium ion battery with high-energy-density.In view of pursuing high-energy-density, electrode material (negative material and positive electrode) has become an important focus areas, because they have appreciable impact to the energy density improving lithium ion battery.Except energy density, electrode material also determines the capacity of lithium ion battery to a considerable extent.
Table 1 shows as some typical materials of negative active core-shell material and positive electrode active materials and their respective conductances thereof.As can be seen from Table 1, compare with material with carbon element, the conductance being used in some typical negative electrode materials in lithium ion battery and advanced positive electrode material is quite low.
Table 1
Active material Negative pole/positive pole Conductance (S/cm)
Cobalt acid lithium LiCoO 2 Negative pole 2.0×10 -1
LiFePO4 LiFePO 4 Negative pole 1.9×10 -9
Silicon dioxide SiO 2 Positive pole 1.0×10 -11
Tin ash SnO 2 Positive pole 1.0×10 -3
Carbon Carbon N/A 1.0×10 4
As can be seen from Table 1, the chemical formula of positive electrode shows, lithium (Li) is one of key element of positive electrode.Table 1 also shows, and negative material can be metal oxide.
In lithium ion battery 10 running, when working at more than high voltage 4.8V, electrolyte 102 decomposes according to following chemical equation, LiPF wherein 6be the major solute of electrolyte, be widely used in lithium ion battery:
LiPF 6+H 2O→LiF+POF 3+2HF (1)
Decomposition reaction occurs in charge/discharge process, can form hydrogen fluoride (HF).Conversely, hydrogen fluoride can corrode (reacting with it) cobalt acid cathode of lithium 101:
4HF+LiCoO 2→LiF+CoF 3+2H 2O (2)
Chemical equation (2) display cobalt element forms cobalt trifluoride (CoF from positive pole stripping 3).Cobalt trifluoride is in the electrolytic solution.Cobalt is from positive pole stripping and be discharged into electrolyte, is disintegrated by positive electrode, and causes battery performance to worsen.
The Surface coating of electrode material is the effective ways solving electrode material dissolves (namely harmful in charge/discharge process accessory substance).In the prior art, coated shortcoming comprises complicated preparation technology, one pack system is coated and non-homogeneous coated.The method for coating of many maturations comprises sol-gel process, ball-milling method, wet-mix process, chemical vapour deposition (CVD), spray pyrolysis, electrostatic spinning and hydro thermal method, and they have higher preparation cost and higher energy ezpenditure.Current most of Surface coating is one-component layer, effectively can not avoid stripping by guard electrode material in charge/discharge process.
Such as, the surface coating layer attempting using carbon as electrode material has been had.But because carbon is inert component, it just can not avoid chemical stripping by guard electrode material effectively.Carbon can provide the temporary barrier between HF and electrode material at most.If carbon is porous, hydrogen fluoride in the solution finally directly can contact and erosion electrode material with electrode.The another kind of method solving lithium ion battery electrode material metal dissolving problem uses metal oxide as sacrifice agent, reacts with HF.But, coating layer uses metal oxide, will the resistivity of electrode material be significantly improved.
The method of current electrode-clad also has a problem to be that the coating layer of gained is normally uneven.Particularly when using physical method to prepare these coating layers as ball-milling method, spray pyrolysis, usually there will be the problem that coating thickness is uneven.In non-homogeneous coating layer, the part of relative thin is its weak spot, removes directly to contact active material because they can offer an opportunity and reacts with it to HF.
The quality of electrode material coating layer, structure and feature are extremely important to battery performance.Therefore, in battery manufacturing field, always expect the coating layer that can improve battery electrode.
