Description

Silicon-carbon composite material for lithium ion battery and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of lithium ion batteries, in particular to a silicon-carbon composite material for a lithium ion battery and a preparation method thereof.
Background
The lithium ion battery has wide application as an energy storage element, and as a material for a negative electrode, the theoretical specific capacity of graphite is only 372 mAh/g. Nowadays, with the demand of increasing the energy density of lithium ion batteries, the actual specific capacity of graphite negative electrodes has been developed to the limit, and the development potential thereof is extremely limited.
The theoretical specific capacity of the silicon material reaches 4200mAh/g, and the silicon material has huge reserve in the crust and is a candidate material of the next generation of high-energy density lithium ion battery. However, when the silicon is inserted and removed from the lithium, the volume of the silicon expands and contracts by 300%, and the silicon is pulverized, falls off and loses activity in the charge and discharge cycle process of the battery, so that the application of the silicon in the lithium ion battery is limited. The key difficulty is that the volume expansion of silicon during lithium intercalation is inhibited, and the cycle of the silicon cathode is improved. At present, silicon is subjected to nanocrystallization and is compounded with a carbon material, so that the expansion and cycle performance of a silicon cathode can be effectively improved.
Chinese patent CN 103682287A discloses a method for preparing a silicon-based composite material, which comprises the steps of firstly grinding graphite into hollows, embedding nano-silicon particles between the hollows, coating an organic carbon precursor by fusion and VC mixing, carrying out isotropic pressure treatment and carbonizing to obtain the silicon-based composite material. The preparation method has complex process and harsh technological conditions, and industrial production is difficult to realize. The silica-based material is extruded to be compact, and the rate capability of the material is greatly limited.
Chinese patent CN 102891297A discloses a silicon-carbon composite material and a preparation method thereof, the composite material is a graphite, asphalt and nano-silicon composite structure, and a nano-level silicon-carbon composite material precursor is obtained by adding graphite, asphalt and micron silicon into an aqueous solution of sodium carboxymethylcellulose for ball milling. And carrying out spray drying and carbonization on the precursor to obtain the silicon-carbon composite material. According to the method, sodium carboxymethylcellulose is used as the adhesive, so that the pulverization phenomenon caused by the silicon in the charging and discharging processes is prevented, and the cycle performance of the silicon is effectively improved. However, ball milling and spray drying granulation are carried out in a sodium carboxymethylcellulose aqueous solution, and during high-energy ball milling, a sodium carboxymethylcellulose long molecular chain is easily broken, so that the viscosity of a slurry system is rapidly reduced, nano silicon and graphite flakes are layered, and uniform dispersion of the nano silicon and the graphite flakes is not realized in the ball milling process. Secondly, the asphalt is an oily material and is not infiltrated with water, so that the uniform compounding of silicon and carbon is difficult to realize. And thirdly, the nano silicon without an oxide layer on the surface has stronger hydrophobicity, is spray-dried in a pure water system, and is easy to float to the surface through a graphite gap due to the absence of steric hindrance and adhesion of a high-molecular polymer, so that the nano silicon is agglomerated, and after the nano silicon is manufactured into a battery, local over-expansion, pulverization and poor cycle performance are easily caused.
Chinese patent CN 104425802A discloses a preparation method of a silicon-based composite material. The method mixes the base material with the conductive agent and carries out granulation by a spray drying mode. The base material used is the mechanical mixing of emulsified asphalt, graphite and silicon powder. Similarly, when the method is used for spray drying by using water-based slurry, nano silicon particles are easy to float and agglomerate, and the circulation performance is deteriorated.
In the existing system, the nano silicon is unevenly dispersed along with the agglomeration and upward floating of the nano silicon in the compounding process of the nano silicon and graphite, so that the lithium ion battery prepared from the existing silicon material has low first efficiency, poor circulation and large expansion. Therefore, the key point of preparing the silicon-carbon composite material taking graphite and nano silicon as matrixes lies in how to inhibit the agglomeration and floating of the nano silicon and control the uniform dispersion of the nano silicon in a graphite system.
