Description

Niobium-coated nickel-cobalt-manganese ternary precursor, and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of lithium ion batteries, and particularly relates to a niobium-coated nickel-cobalt-manganese ternary precursor, a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Currently, rapid development of the electric automobile industry promotes development and application of power batteries, and lithium ion batteries are the first choice of power batteries as secondary batteries with optimal comprehensive performance at present. In order to meet the requirements of the market on the long endurance mileage of the electric automobile, the nickel-cobalt-manganese ternary material with high specific capacity is adopted as the positive electrode, which is an important way for improving the energy density of the power battery. However, the nickel element has high activity and strong oxidizing property in a charged state, so that the surface of the nickel-cobalt-manganese ternary anode material is easy to generate oxidation-reduction side reaction with electrolyte, and irreversible phase change and cycle performance are reduced. In addition, in the charge and discharge process of the nickel-cobalt-manganese ternary positive electrode material, the crystal has obvious volume change, and cracks are easy to generate on the surface of particles, so that the invasion of electrolyte and the integrity of the particles are damaged. The method reduces the exposure of the high-reactivity surface of the nickel-cobalt-manganese ternary cathode material, enhances the interface stability, and is an important starting point for improving the performance of the nickel-cobalt-manganese ternary cathode material.
At present, the surface interface of the nickel-cobalt-manganese ternary positive electrode material is mainly coated, and substances such as oxides, phosphates or ion conductors with higher stability are coated on the surfaces of precursor particles or positive electrode particles, so that direct contact between electrolyte and the surfaces of high-activity positive electrode particles is reduced, and the circulation stability is improved. For example, chinese patent (CN 113871583 a) discloses a preparation method of a coated ternary precursor, which comprises dissolving a ternary precursor in water in the presence of a solubilizing agent to obtain a precursor solution, mixing an alcohol coating solution containing metal salt with the precursor solution, performing solid-liquid separation on the obtained mixture, washing with water, and vacuum drying to obtain a coated ternary precursor; chinese patent (CN 114057235A) discloses a method for coating LATP by nickel-cobalt-manganese ternary precursor, adding mixed solution of lithium and aluminum with pH of 4-5 into a reaction kettle, adding NCM precursor powder, ammonium bicarbonate solution, ammonium dihydrogen phosphate solution and titanium salt solution, centrifuging, washing and drying slurry after reaction to obtain LATP-coated NCM ternary precursor material; chinese patent (CN 114005984A) discloses a high-nickel ternary positive electrode material modified by coupling of lithium niobate cladding and niobium doping, a preparation method and application thereof, wherein the high-nickel ternary material is added into an ethanol solution containing niobium and lithium, and the mixture is heated and evaporated to dryness to realize cladding.
However, the nickel-cobalt-manganese ternary cathode material prepared by the method in the prior art has poor interface stability, and the cycle performance of the battery needs to be improved. The existing coating process is independent of the conventional precursor and cathode material synthesis flow, and requires additional coating equipment and auxiliary materials, so that the production cost is increased. In addition, the added coating procedure prolongs the production time of the product, the change of the coating condition improves the operation complexity of the production, and the method is unfavorable for popularization and application of the coating process of the nickel-cobalt-manganese ternary cathode material.
