Description

Surface in-situ coating type positive electrode lithium supplementing material and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to a positive electrode lithium supplementing material of a lithium battery, in particular to a surface in-situ coating type positive electrode lithium supplementing material and a preparation method thereof.
Background
Lithium ion batteries with high energy density, long service life and no memory effect have been widely used in various fields such as portable electronic devices and electric automobiles since commercialization. Lithium ion batteries are currently the mainstream secondary batteries, which are peculiar in that their energy storage and release process is accompanied by Li + Reversible deintercalation between positive and negative electrodes, therefore Li capable of reversible deintercalation in battery system + The number will directly determine the capacity of the battery. However, in general, in the first charge and discharge process of the lithium ion battery, the organic solvent undergoes a reduction reaction at the negative electrode and forms a lithium-containing SEI film, and the process partially consumes the reversibly deintercalated active Li in the battery + Thereby adversely affecting the initial discharge capacity and cycle life of the battery. In particular, for a high specific energy lithium ion battery using a high capacity low first-effect negative electrode, the initial cycle activity Li + The loss phenomenon becomes more serious.
To alleviate the above problems, it is necessary to supplement active Li in a battery system in advance + This can be achieved by supplementing lithium to the positive electrode or the negative electrode, respectively. The lithium supplementing of the negative electrode often involves the use of metallic lithium, so that the experimental process is complex and has certain potential safety hazard; the lithium supplementing of the positive electrode can be achieved simply by introducing the positive electrode lithium supplementing additive into the slurry during the homogenization process. The positive electrode lithium supplement additive is an active material with high capacity and low first effect, and can irreversibly remove a large amount of Li in the first cycle process + Thereby counteracting the active Li consumed by SEI film formation + . In a plurality of positive electrode lithium supplementing additives, li with irreversible capacity of 250-300 mAh/g can be provided in a conventional voltage interval 2 NiO 2 The material (Immm structure) has a high volume specific capacity although the mass specific capacity is not very outstanding, and does not generate a large amount of air during use as other positive electrode lithium supplement additives (such as sacrificial lithium salt, oxides and nitrides of Li)The material is, more importantly, compatible with the solvents used in the existing homogenization steps and is therefore a lithium supplementing material that is promising for large-scale applications. However Li 2 NiO 2 Materials often have a heterogeneous phase during synthesis, which can lead to a decrease in initial capacity; in addition, the surface structure of the material is extremely easy to be H in the air 2 O and CO 2 Side reactions occur, which can lead to an increase in the amount of residual alkali and further affect the capacity of the product.

To improve the stability of materials in air, the use of Al has been reported in the literature (J. Mater. Chem.,2008,18,5880-5887) 2 O 3 For Li 2 NiO 2 The strategy of coating the surface of the material is also disclosed in China patent (application No. 202110336830.1) which discloses ZrO with a more stable surface structure 2 /B 2 O 3 Double-coated Li 2 NiO 2 A material. However, the above-mentioned coated Li 2 NiO 2 The material is obtained in two steps, i.e. Li is first synthesized 2 NiO 2 The material is then introduced to the surface of the material by a liquid or solid phase method. The experimental procedure is not only cumbersome, but also because the coating object is Li with poor stability in air 2 NiO 2 The finished material, therefore, also needs to avoid side reactions of the material during the process, which undoubtedly increases the coated Li 2 NiO 2 The preparation of the material is difficult.

Experimental example
The materials prepared in examples 1-2 and comparative example 1 above were subjected to structural morphology characterization and electrochemical performance testing, respectively.
FIG. 2 is an X-ray diffraction pattern of the material described in example 2, except that Li is visible in FIG. 2 2 Ni 0.95 Cu 0.05 O 2 Besides the corresponding strong diffraction peak, the attribution to Li can also be observed 3 PO 4 Is marked #), which indicates the (NH) introduced during the synthesis of the material described in example 2 4 ) 2 HPO 4 Is indeed capable of forming Li after sintering 3 PO 4
The materials prepared in examples 1 to 7 and comparative example 1 above were respectively subjected to 400 mesh sieving, and used as a positive electrode active material with a binder (PVDF) and a conductive agent (Super P) in a mass ratio of 8:1:1, preparing a positive electrode plate, then assembling a button cell by taking a lithium plate as a negative electrode material in a glove box, and performing constant-current charge and discharge test at 25 ℃ with the following voltage ranges: 3-4.3V and defining a current density of 150mA/g of 1C, the test results are shown in FIG. 3 and Table 1.
TABLE 1
The first charge and discharge test data in table 1 shows that: (1) Since the surface in-situ coated materials of examples 1 to 7 were inhibited from forming an impurity phase and from growing primary particles during the preparation, their primary charge capacities were significantly higher than those of comparative example 1; (2) 0.95Li in example 2 2 Ni 0.95 Cu 0.05 O 2 @0.05Li 3 PO 4 The material has a relatively highest first charge capacity but a relatively lowest first discharge capacity due to Cu 2+ The introduction of the lithium ion battery increases the irreversible oxidation degree of lattice oxygen during the first charge, so that the irreversible capacity of the positive electrode lithium supplementing material is obviously improved. As can be seen from the first charge-discharge curve in FIG. 3, the first charge-discharge curve shape of the material in example 2 is significantly changed compared with that of comparative example 1 and example 1, further illustrating the introduction of Cu 2+ Has successfully replaced Ni 2+ Into the crystal latticeAnd form Li 2 Ni 0.95 Cu 0.05 O 2 Solid solution active materials. Furthermore, as shown by the cyclic test data in Table 1, due to the in-situ coated inert Li on the material surface in examples 1-7 3 PO 4 Side reactions between the internal active material and the electrolyte are suppressed, and thus the cycle performance is also greatly improved.
To examine the stability in air of the materials prepared in examples 1-2 and comparative example 1, each freshly prepared material was further left in air for 12 hours, followed by formation of a button cell as described above, and constant current charge and discharge test was performed. The test results are shown in Table 2, and the positive electrode lithium supplementing material Li in comparative example 1 2 NiO 2 Due to H in the air 2 O and CO 2 Serious side reactions occur, so that the initial capacity of the material and the capacity retention rate after recycling are greatly reduced. However, for the materials in examples 1-2, inert Li was uniformly surface 3 PO 4 The in-situ coating layer is present to obviously inhibit the side reaction, so that the initial capacity and the cycle stability of the positive electrode lithium-supplementing material coated on the surface in-situ are obviously reduced after being placed in the air for a long time. Due to influence on the lithium supplementing material Li of the positive electrode 2 NiO 2 One of the main problems of popularization and application is that the poor air stability greatly increases the difficulty of material storage and use, and the surface in-situ coating preparation strategy adopted by the invention can obviously improve the short plate, which is helpful for the practical application of the positive electrode lithium supplementing material.
TABLE 2
The test data show that the inert Li3PO4 coated on the surface in situ is beneficial to improving the purity of the internal active positive electrode lithium supplementing material, and can obviously inhibit side reactions of the lithium supplementing material in the storage and use processes, and the enrichment of divalent metal ions on the surface layer of the active material can further improve the irreversible capacity of the lithium supplementing material, so that the surface in situ coated positive electrode lithium supplementing material shown in the figure 1 prepared by the invention has excellent initial electrochemical performance and extremely high air stability, and the simple one-step sintering preparation process is suitable for large-scale production and application.
