【Technical field】
The present invention relates to field of batteries, more particularly to by providing new clad and coating technology with guard electrode material With increase lithium ion battery electrode conductivuty and improve performance of lithium ion battery.
【Background technology】
Many modern comforts are required for battery as mobile electric energy.Because the packaged type energy, it is necessary to the equipment of electric energy such as Computer, flashlight, wrist-watch and miscellaneous equipment can are portable.Even when battery is not the main energy of an equipment During source, but the equipment still may require that battery.For example, most of automobiles are to provide major impetus by burns gasoline, But these automobiles still need a battery, so that the engine start of automobile.Because the concern to environment, automobile is now Gradually battery is used to replace gasoline as main power source.Therefore, battery and battery technology become increasingly prevalent with it is important.
There are various types of rechargeable batteries on the market.The basic conception of rechargeable battery is exactly them reversibly by chemical energy Be converted to the electrochemical cell of electric energy.Each battery unit has a positive terminal (positive pole), and electronics passes through from the positive terminal An external circuit is crossed, flows to a negative pole end (negative pole).Electronics displacement produces electric current.Can be to be connected to positive pole and bear Device between pole provides electric current.
Because lithium ion battery has certain advantage than other types rechargeable battery, they are becoming increasingly popular, It is widely used in the equipment such as mobile phone, computer and electric automobile.Fig. 1 shows the lithium ion battery 10 of prior art And its operation principle.The primary clustering of lithium ion battery 10 includes negative pole 100, positive pole 101, electrolyte 102 and barrier film 103.
Barrier film 103 is used as separating negative pole 100 and positive pole 101, so as to prevent the short circuit between negative pole 100 and positive pole 101. Positive pole 101 is typically cobalt acid lithium;Negative pole 100 is typically graphite or tin-based material.In the charging process of lithium ion battery 10, lithium from Son can be discharged into electrolyte 102 from positive pole 101, then move to negative pole 100, i.e., from Fig. 1 left side to Fig. 1 the right.Electricity Son is also spontaneously moved to negative pole 100 from positive pole 101 by an external circuit.In discharge process, in the lithium of negative pole 100 Ion and electrons are moved to positive pole 101 from negative pole 100, i.e., from Fig. 1 the right to Fig. 1 left side.For filling for lithium ion battery Electricity and discharge process, the movement of lithium ion and electronics between negative pole and positive pole is critically important.
In the art, it would be desirable to produce the lithium ion battery with high-energy-density.In view of it is close to pursue high-energy Degree, electrode material (negative material and positive electrode) has become an important focus areas because they to improve lithium from The energy density of sub- battery significantly affects.Except energy density, electrode material also determine to a considerable extent lithium from The capacity of sub- battery.
Table 1 shows as some of negative active core-shell material and positive electrode active materials typical materials and its their own led Electric rate.As it can be seen from table 1 compared with carbon material, the typical negative electrode material of some in lithium ion battery and elder generation The conductance for entering positive electrode material is at a fairly low.
Table 1
Active material Negative pole/positive pole Conductance (S/cm)
Cobalt acid lithium LiCoO2 Negative pole 2.0×10-1
LiFePO4 LiFePO4 Negative pole 1.9×10-9
Silica SiO2 Positive pole 1.0×10-11
Tin ash SnO2 Positive pole 1.0×10-3
Carbon Carbon N/A 1.0×104
From table 1 it follows that the chemical formula of positive electrode shows, lithium (Li) is one of key element of positive electrode. Table 1 also shows that negative material can be metal oxide.
In the running of lithium ion battery 10, when being worked more than high voltage 4.8V, electrolyte 102 is according to followingization Learn reaction equation to decompose, LiPF therein6It is the major solute of electrolyte, is widely used in lithium ion battery:
LiPF6+H2O→LiF+POF3+2HF (1)
Decomposition reaction occurs in charge/discharge process, can form hydrogen fluoride (HF).In turn, hydrogen fluoride can corrode (reacting therewith) cobalt acid lithium negative pole 101:
4HF+LiCoO2→LiF+CoF3+2H2O (2)
Chemical equation (2) shows that cobalt element forms cobalt trifluoride (CoF from positive pole dissolution3).Cobalt trifluoride is in electricity Solve in liquid.Cobalt is from positive pole dissolution and is discharged into electrolyte, positive electrode is disintegrated, and cause battery performance to deteriorate.
The Surface coating of electrode material is that solve electrode material dissolving (accessory substance being harmful to i.e. in charge/discharge process) One effective ways.In the prior art, the preparation technology including complexity the shortcomings that cladding, one pack system cladding and non-homogeneous bag Cover.Many ripe method for coating include sol-gel process, ball-milling method, wet-mix process, chemical vapor deposition, spray pyrolysis, Electrostatic spinning and hydro-thermal method, they have higher preparation cost and higher energy expenditure.Most of Surface coatings are at present One-component layer, in charge/discharge process can not effectively guard electrode material from dissolution.
For example, there is the surface coating layer that trial uaes carbon as electrode material.But because carbon is inert component, it is just Can not effectively guard electrode material from chemical dissolution.Carbon can provide the interim screen between HF and electrode material at most Barrier.If carbon is porous, hydrogen fluoride in the solution is eventually directly contacted with electrode and erosion electrode material.Solve lithium from Another method of sub- battery electrode material metal dissolving problem is to use metal oxide to occur as sacrifice agent with HF anti- Should.But metal oxide is used on clad, the resistivity of electrode material will be significantly improved.
The method of electrode-clad also has a problem to be at present, and the clad of gained is typically uneven.Particularly work as When using physical method, for example ball-milling method, spray pyrolysis are to prepare these clads, it will usually it is uneven coating thickness occur The problem of.The part of relative thin is its weak spot in non-homogeneous clad, goes directly to connect to HF because they can provide chance Touch active material and react therewith.
The quality of electrode material clad, structure and feature are extremely important to battery performance.Therefore, led in battery manufacture In domain, always it is desirable to improve the clad of battery electrode.

Process 30 is reacted by chemical graft and then carbonisation is used for lithium ion cell electrode material to provide one kind The doping carbon coating layer of material.Chemical graft reacts and carbonisation will be described in step 301-304.In step 301, electricity Pole active material 40 is reacted with a kind of solution containing additive, and electrode active material 40 is pre-processed with protonation.According to this Inventive embodiments, it is surface protonated to react the step 401 for being shown in Fig. 4.Additive solution can be weakly acidic solution, such as any A kind of acetic acid, oxalic acid, formic acid and citric acid are in any organic solvent such as isopropanol, methanol, ethanol, isopropanol or acetone In, or its combination.Surface protonated reaction produces one or more functional groups on electrode active material 40.So as to electrode active The surface of property material 40 is covered by hydroxyl.Hydrogen ion in acid carries out anti-with the Surface Oxygen of metal oxide or metal phosphate Should, so as to form the surface of a protonation.As shown in step 401, electrode active material 40 forms chemical bond, makees with hydrogen ion With the electrode active material 41 (protonation metal oxide or protonation metal phosphate) for forming protonation.Electrode active material Can include metal oxide, metal phosphate, metal sulfide, for similar material of the lithium ion battery as active material Material or its combination.Compared with the method for other jacketed electrode active materials, the formation of above-mentioned chemical bond has larger in this area Advantage, this can be described below.
Step 302 is a kind of chemical graft reaction, as described in step 402, wherein the protonation (proton of electrode active material 41 Change metal oxide or protonation metal phosphate) reacted with a kind of organic metal additive.So as to metal/metalloid Atom is introduced in the organic coating layer of electrode active material 40.Organic metal additive can have a reactive functionality R1 (such as epoxide group), an alkoxy grp R-O- and metallic atom or metalloid atom (such as titanium, aluminium, silicon, tin, magnesium, zinc, Zirconium, and combinations thereof).Organic metal additive can include silane, aluminium, titanium, zirconium, and combinations thereof be used as coupling agent.Coupling Agent can include functional group such as epoxy radicals, alkoxy and amine, including (ethylenediamine base-N- ethyoxyls) titanate esters of isopropoxy three and 3- glycydoxy trimethoxy silanes, and combinations thereof.
In the chemical graft reaction of step 402, organic metal additive and the protonation (protonation of electrode active material 41 Metal oxide or protonation metal phosphate) protonation surface reacted, to produce the electrode activity of organic coating layer Material 42 and an accessory substance R-OH.Therefore, in step 402, protonation surface is with organic metal additive in electrode activity Material 40 (metal oxide or metal phosphate) surface react it is upper formation the first Coated with Organic Matter layer.The organic matter layer will Electrode active material 40 envelopes.The hydrogen on protonation surface reacts with R-O groups, can form accessory substance R-OH.Organic bag Coating electrode active material 42 is to surround (the metal oxidation of electrode active material 40 by the organic layer of metallic atom or metalloid atom Thing or metal phosphate).Metallic atom or metalloid atom are chemically bonded to the appearance of metal oxide or metal phosphate On face.
In step 303, there is the reaction of another chemical graft, it adds the second organic layer on electrode active material 40 (one Individual organic layer is added on the electrode active material 42 of organic coating layer), as described in step 403.Implementation according to the present invention Example, in chemical graft reaction, the electrode active material 42 and one of organic coating layer is rich in the organic compound of nitrogen carbon React, to form the electrode active material 43 (metal oxide of two layers of organic coating layer) of two layers of organic coating layer.This Outside, according to the embodiment of the present invention, reacted in the chemical graft, the electrode active material 42 of organic coating layer is with being rich in phosphorus carbon Organic compound chemically react, with formed two layers of organic coating layer (two layers of the organic coating layer of electrode active material 43 Metal phosphate).In addition, according in the embodiment of the present invention, reacted in the chemical graft, the electrode activity material of organic coating layer Material 42 is reacted with the organic compound of (1) rich in nitrogen carbon and the organic compound of (2) rich in phosphorus carbon, to be formed Electrode active material 43 (metal oxide of two layers organic coating layer and the gold of two layers of organic coating layer of two layers of organic coating layer Belong to phosphate).Step 403 shows R2- X is as the organic compound rich in nitrogen carbon or the organic compound rich in phosphorus carbon Thing.X is nitrogen (or phosphorus) doping and carbon.Except nitrogen and carbon, the also functional functional group R of the compound2
Due to R1And R2Between chemical reaction, the compound R of introducing2- X is grafted on organic coating layer metal oxide. Therefore, if R1It is epoxy radicals, R2Can be amido, vice versa (i.e. if R1It is amido, R2Can be epoxy radicals).R2- X can To be melamine.Electrode active material 40 (metal oxide or metal phosphate), by the two chemical graft steps, quilt Coat two layers of organic material.
In the embodiment of the present invention, one organic compound rich in phosphorus carbon of step 303 introducing to organic coating layer, As described in step 403.Nitrogen is auto-dope agent, because nitrogen-atoms is the presoma for adulterating carbon coating layer-organic coating layer.That is, nitrogen Atom has been present in compound, and organic clad is formed for reacting.So, without from organic layer or doping carbon coating layer Nitrogen-atoms is incorporated into doping carbon coating layer by outer some other sources.Introduced nitrogen into from another source to carbon coating layer It is interior, obtain a coating layer material containing N doping including the use of ammonia.Therefore, in coating layer material, according to the present invention Embodiment, nitrogen is the auto-dope agent from nitrogen-enriched compounds.Nitrogen may originate from for organic coating layer electrode active material 42 melamines to react.Nitrogen and carbon source may be from:Melamine, polyethylene Asia amine, polyacrylamide, pyrroles and its Combination.
In embodiments of the invention, the compound rich in phosphorus carbon is included in the reaction of step 403.Phosphorus is to mix certainly Miscellaneous dose, because phosphorus atoms are the presomas for adulterating carbon coating layer-organic coating layer.I.e. phosphorus atoms have been present in compound, use Organic clad is formed in reaction.So, it is without some other sources outside organic layer or doping carbon coating layer that phosphorus is former Son is incorporated into doping carbon coating layer.
