The prepared rice-based silicon oxide/carbon composite negative electrode material is applied to a CR2032 button lithium ion battery, and the specific method comprises the following steps:
uniformly mixing the silicon-oxygen-carbon composite negative electrode material, the conductive agent Super P and the adhesive polyvinylidene fluoride according to the mass ratio of 70:20: 10; and then according to the mass ratio of 20: 80 mixing the above materials uniformlyMixing the mixture (the mixture of silicon oxide/carbon microsphere composite material, Super P and polyvinylidene fluoride) with N-methyl pyrrolidone, and uniformly stirring to prepare slurry; and then coating the slurry on a copper foil, and drying and rolling to obtain the lithium ion battery electrode negative plate with the thickness of 13-23 mu m.

Performance testing
After the lithium ion battery is kept stand for 24 hours, a charge-discharge test is carried out on the lithium ion battery in the first circle at the current of 0.1 ℃, and the charge-discharge voltage interval is between 0.01 and 3.0V; and carrying out a charge-discharge test at 0.5C from the second circle, wherein the charge-discharge interval is between 0.01 and 3.0V. The test results are shown in fig. 2.
Taking the silicon-oxygen-carbon composite material prepared in example 1 as an example, the scanning of an electron microscope is performed, and the result is shown in fig. 1. As can be seen from the figure, the prepared silicon-oxygen-carbon composite material has the advantages of rough material structure surface, uneven pore size and more pores, and the occurrence of the structure on the surface is caused by that during the carbonization process of the rice husk, organic matters such as lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose in the rice husk are pyrolyzed, and released gas escapes from the surface of the rice husk.
FIG. 2 shows the current density at 0.5A g for large charge and discharge-1And (4) constant current charge-discharge circulation. It is clear from the figure that the initial discharge specific capacity is 1098.8mAh/g and then the specific capacity is maintained at about 700mAh/g in 70 cycles. The early-stage specific capacity of the cycle is very considerable, which is due to the excellent electrochemical properties of the silicon-oxygen-carbon composite material. The lithium battery can still maintain 437mAh/g at 100 cycles and is still far higher than the capacity of the graphite negative electrode of the current commercial lithium battery.
