Description

Surface-coated modified lithium ion battery positive electrode material and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of lithium ion batteries, in particular to a surface-coated modified lithium ion battery anode material and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Rapid development in the fields of consumer electronics, electric vehicles, smart grids, and the like, put higher demands on the performance of rechargeable batteries. Among various rechargeable battery technologies, lithium ion batteries have become the most important development direction in the secondary battery market due to their excellent electrochemical performance. With the continuous expansion of the application field, how to further improve the energy density of the lithium ion battery becomes the key point of battery research and development.
Increasing the operating voltage of a lithium ion battery is the most direct and effective way to increase its energy density. However, at high voltages, the electrode materials in the battery present risks of safety and reliability. In order to ensure that the electrode material, especially the anode material, keeps stable in long-period circulation, modification of the surface of the anode material particles is necessary. The surface coating technology is the simplest and most effective surface modification method, and the surface coating layer can reduce side reactions generated on the interface of the electrolyte and the anode and stabilize the surface structure and components of the material, so that the electrochemical performance of the battery is improved.
Generally, the surface properties of the positive electrode material particles have great influence on the physical and electrochemical properties of the positive electrode material particles, for example, CN105489878A, CN105226256A adopt some inorganic oxides to perform surface coating modification on the positive electrode material, so that the direct contact between the positive electrode material and the electrolyte can be reduced or avoided, and the rapid capacity decay caused by interface side reactions can be relieved. However, these methods cause lithium ions in the bulk of the positive electrode material to diffuse into the coating layer material during the surface coating process, resulting in a change in the structure of the bulk of the positive electrode material, and thus, may also cause a decrease in battery performance. In addition, other various metal oxide coatings, e.g. MgO, SnO2、SiO2ZnO, CuO, etc., are also used for LiCoO2The interface modification of the cathode material is carried out, but the electrochemical performance of the battery cannot be improved remarkably at a higher cut-off voltage. Further, metal fluoride (CeF) is performed on the surface of the positive electrode material3,AlF3,MgF2,AlWxFyEtc.) also applied, which, although improving cycling stability, neverthelessThe structure and the composition of the coating layer are not beneficial to the rapid transport of the lithium ions at the interface of the anode material. In recent years, the appearance of solid electrolyte coating materials improves the ion transport performance of the interface of the positive electrode material to a certain extent, but due to the poor electronic conductivity and the essential properties of non-electrochemical activity, the problems of material capacity reduction, rate performance deterioration and the like are still caused.
Although the types of coating materials are various, the surface coating layers of the current commercial cathode materials are mainly oxides and fluorides. The traditional coating material can avoid direct contact of electrolyte and a positive electrode material to a certain extent, and improves the electrochemical stability of the material. However, since the coating material has no electrochemical activity and is limited in ionic and electronic conductivity, the optimal performance of the electrode material cannot be exerted to the maximum extent, and the improvement of the comprehensive performance of the material is limited.
