Description

Single crystal cobalt-free aluminum doped lithium nickelate positive electrode material with self-precipitation coating layer, and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of electrochemical energy storage batteries and power batteries, and particularly relates to a cobalt-free aluminum-doped lithium nickelate positive electrode material with a self-precipitation coating layer, and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Lithium Ion Batteries (LIBs) are considered as a promising energy storage device, and have been applied in electric vehicles, renewable energy power stations, and smart grids. As one of the positive electrode materials of lithium ion batteries, cobalt-free aluminum-doped lithium nickelate (LiNi 0.95 Al 0.05 O 2 ) Has the advantages of high capacity, low cost and the like, and is widely focused. However, there are also some problems with cobalt-free aluminum doped lithium nickelate positive electrode materials, which restrict their application: ni in charged state 4+ The high oxidability of the catalyst causes side reactions on the surface of the material and the electrolyte, and the performance is degraded; the anode material is sensitive to water, and the requirements of the material preparation and battery manufacturing process are high; the polycrystalline particles have inter-crystal stress, so that cracks are easy to generate, and the stability of the material is reduced.
In order to improve the structural stability of the material, single crystal modification of cobalt-free aluminum-doped lithium nickelate is a novel strategy. Such as a ternary positive electrode material NCM811 for lithium ion batteries prepared by molten salt method (Centro, zhong Chengwen, lou Suo et al, china patent CN 111224089A). And synthesizing monocrystal particles with ideal morphology through molten salt assistance. The single crystal material overcomes the influence of inter-crystal stress and has higher stability than that of the polycrystalline material. However, single crystal modification does not improve the side reaction problem caused by the high activity of the surface of the material itself. Therefore, a modification means is sought, the cycle performance of the monocrystalline material is further improved, and the method is very important for the application of cobalt-free aluminum doped lithium nickelate.
Surface coating is an effective modification strategy, and can inhibit side reactions between the surface of the material and the electrolyte. In single crystal ternary material systems, certain coating modification work has been reported. For example, an MOF coated single crystal ternary positive electrode material is obtained by adding organic carboxylate into the synthesis process of the single crystal ternary material to obtain an MOF coating layer on the surface of the material. The coating layer effectively improves the thermal stability and the cycle stability of the single crystal material (Xu Kaihua, jiang Zhenkang, zhang Kun, etc., chinese patent CN 111129463 a). However, the conventional coating method requires additional introduction of coating materials or the use of a complicated coating process, increasing the manufacturing cost; some coating strategies are realized through liquid phase reaction, and the cobalt-free aluminum-doped lithium nickel oxide material is sensitive to water and is easy to induce the surface to form an inactive rock salt phase, so that the performance of the anode material is degraded; the coating layer is not matched with the bulk material in lattice, and the uniformity is insufficient; the coating layer is a non-fast ion conductor, can obstruct the diffusion of lithium ions in the charge and discharge process, and reduces the rate capability of the anode material. Therefore, there is a need to develop a low cost, hydrophobic and uniform coating strategy to achieve application of single crystal cobalt-free aluminum doped lithium nickel oxide positive electrode materials.

The invention aims to solve the defects in the prior art and provides a self-precipitation beta-Li 5 AlO 4 The monocrystalline cobalt-free aluminum doped lithium nickelate anode material of the coating layer adopts the following technical scheme:
beta-Li self-precipitation 5 AlO 4 The preparation method of the monocrystal cobalt-free aluminum doped lithium nickelate positive electrode material of the coating layer comprises the following steps:
s1, ni is mixed with 0.95 Al 0.05 (OH) 2 Uniformly mixing the precursor, a first lithium source and chloride, reacting in an oxygen atmosphere by a molten salt method to obtain an intermediate product, washing the intermediate product with water, and drying to obtain the monocrystal cobalt-free aluminum-doped lithium nickelate layered anode material;
s2, uniformly mixing the monocrystal cobalt-free aluminum-doped lithium nickel oxide layered anode material obtained in the step S1 with a second lithium source, and then performing intermediate-temperature heat treatment in an oxygen atmosphere to obtain self-precipitated beta-Li 5 AlO 4 A single crystal cobalt-free aluminum doped lithium nickelate anode material of the coating layer;
the dosage of the first lithium source is Ni 0.95 Al 0.05 (OH) 2 105% -130% of the mole fraction of the precursor; the dosage of the second lithium source is less than 30% of the mass fraction of the single crystal cobalt-free aluminum doped lithium nickelate layered anode material obtained in the step S1; the temperature of the medium-temperature heat treatment is 650-750 ℃; with self-precipitating beta-Li 5 AlO 4 The molecular formula of the monocrystal cobalt-free aluminum-doped lithium nickelate positive electrode material of the coating layer is Li 1+x Ni 0.95-y Al 0.05-z O 2 X is more than 0 and less than 0.1, y is more than 0 and less than 0.1, z is more than 0 and less than 0.05, and the grain diameter is 100nm-1 mu m; beta-Li 5 AlO 4 In the presence of self-precipitated beta-Li 5 AlO 4 The mass fraction of the monocrystal cobalt-free aluminum doped lithium nickel oxide anode material of the coating layer is less than 5%.
In order to solve the problems in the prior art, the invention provides a two-step preparation method, which comprises the steps of firstly using Ni 0.95 Al 0.05 (OH) 2 The method comprises the steps of obtaining a monocrystal cobalt-free aluminum-doped lithium nickel oxide positive electrode material by adopting molten salt chemistry as a precursor, washing to remove molten salt, performing secondary lithiation, mixing the positive electrode material with a small amount of lithium source, performing rapid medium-temperature heat treatment, inducing in-situ lattice precipitation of part of aluminum element in a positive electrode material body phase through chemical action, and forming beta-Li on the material surface 5 AlO 4 A coating layer, finally obtaining the self-precipitated beta-Li 5 AlO 4 The monocrystal of the coating layer is free of cobalt and aluminum doped with lithium nickelate anode material.
The self-precipitated beta-Li prepared by the invention 5 AlO 4 Single crystal cobalt-free aluminum doped lithium nickelate anode with coating layerThe material can be sintered only by adding a lithium source without adding an additional aluminum source in the preparation process, thus obtaining the beta-Li 5 AlO 4 The coating layer greatly reduces the coating cost; beta-Li formed by combining in-situ self-precipitated aluminum and lithium 5 AlO 4 The crystal lattice is highly matched with the positive electrode material phase, so that the uniformity of the coating layer is ensured; the uniform coating layer effectively inhibits the side reaction of the material surface and the electrolyte. Furthermore, beta-Li 5 AlO 4 The fast ion conductor can improve the multiplying power performance of the positive electrode material. Thus having self-precipitating beta-Li 5 AlO 4 The monocrystal cobalt-free aluminum-doped lithium nickelate anode material of the coating layer has higher comprehensive performance and can be applied to lithium ion batteries.
In the present invention, the amount of lithium source required for the molten salt method is limited to Ni 0.95 Al 0.05 (OH) 2 105% -130% of the mole fraction of the precursor; the lithium source consumption required by the secondary lithiation method is less than 30% of the mass fraction of the monocrystal cobalt-free aluminum-doped lithium nickel oxide layered positive electrode material with the rock salt phase on the surface. The above limitation is on the one hand to realize the technical conception/technical principle so as to successfully prepare the self-precipitated beta-Li 5 AlO 4 A single crystal cobalt-free aluminum doped lithium nickelate anode material of the coating layer; on the other hand, too high or too low an amount may affect the formation of the coating layer, and may reduce the specific capacity of the positive electrode material. Preferably, however, the amount of chloride required is limited to less than Ni 0.95 Al 0.05 (OH) 2 The molar fraction of the precursor is also because too low or too high an addition amount of the chloride may decrease the specific capacity of the positive electrode material.
Wherein in the molten salt method process, the chloride is at least one of sodium chloride, potassium chloride, lithium chloride, ferric chloride, calcium chloride and cupric chloride; the chloride is preferably lithium chloride or sodium chloride. The inventor finds that the combination of lithium chloride and sodium chloride can effectively reduce the melting point of molten salt, and the melting point is lower than 300 ℃ under the condition of the optimal ratio of 3:2, which is favorable for the formation of single crystal particles in the molten salt synthesis process, because the low-melting-point molten salt can ensure better formation of a layered structure, and if the melting point is high, more energy is used for melting the molten salt.
β-Li 5 AlO 4 The specific process of forming the coating layer is as follows: adding a second lithium source with the dosage less than 30% of the mass fraction of the monocrystal cobalt-free aluminum doped lithium nickel oxide layered anode material, heating to 650-750 ℃ at the speed of 1-10 ℃/min, and then preserving heat for 1-6 h. If the temperature rise rate is too high or the temperature is too high, the amount of aluminum precipitated on the surface becomes insufficient, and uniform self-precipitated beta-Li cannot be obtained 5 AlO 4 And a coating layer.
Preferably, the lithium source is at least one of lithium hydroxide, lithium carbonate, lithium nitrate, and lithium acetate.
Self-precipitated beta-Li based on the preparation method 5 AlO 4 The invention provides a single crystal cobalt-free aluminum doped lithium nickelate positive electrode material of a coating layer, which can be applied to the preparation of a lithium ion battery, and the invention provides a battery positive electrode plate based on the material, and the preparation process comprises the following steps: will have self-precipitated beta-Li 5 AlO 4 The single crystal cobalt-free aluminum doped lithium nickel oxide anode material of the coating layer, the conductive agent, the binder and the solvent are uniformly mixed (with self-precipitation beta-Li) 5 AlO 4 The mass ratio of the monocrystal cobalt-free aluminum doped lithium nickel oxide positive electrode material, the conductive agent and the binder of the coating layer is preferably 8:1: 1) And coating the positive electrode plate on a metal matrix, and drying to obtain the battery positive electrode plate.
