Description

Preparation method of high-performance lithium iron phosphate positive electrode material
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium ion battery materials, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a high-performance lithium iron phosphate positive electrode material.
Background
With the rapid development of economy and the increase of population, the increasing demand for energy and the progressive exhaustion of nonrenewable sources have driven the development of new energy storage devices. The need for new chemical energy storage devices requires greater energy density, better safety, longer service life and more environmental friendliness. Among these, lithium ion batteries are rapidly growing in the market due to their numerous advantages such as high energy density, long cycle life, no memory effect, and environmental friendliness. From the initial energy storage application of small electronic instruments, the energy storage device gradually becomes a new energy source of the vehicle. The positive electrode material of the lithium ion battery has direct leading effect on the performances of the lithium ion battery in various aspects, such as energy density, circulation, multiplying power and the like.
The current main current positive electrode materials can be divided into ternary materials (nickel cobalt lithium manganate, nickel cobalt lithium aluminate), lithium-rich materials and lithium iron phosphate materials. Wherein, lithium iron phosphate LiFePO 4 The (LFP) has the advantages of high discharge specific capacity, flat and stable discharge platform, stable electrochemical performance and structure, safety, no pollution and the like, and is widely applied to the fields of new energy automobiles and energy storage. However, under room temperature conditions, liFePO 4 The lithium ion diffusion rate of the material is slow, the conductivity is low, the material can only exert higher specific capacity under the condition of low current density or high temperature, and LiFePO is limited 4 Commercial application of materials.
Thus, efforts are made to solve LiFePO during production development 4 Drawbacks of the material. Enhancement of LiFePO by modification of carbon coating 4 Properties of the material. For example, CN115893361a discloses a metal-doped carbon-coated lithium iron phosphate material, which is obtained by mixing an iron source, a phosphorus source, a lithium source and gluconate in a solvent, grinding, drying and sintering the mixture. The method improves the capacity of the material and well regulates the particle size of the material. However, the carbon layer formed by the method is easy to damage and fall off, so that the carbon layer on the surface of the lithium iron phosphate material is incompletely coated, and the conductivity of the material is further affected. Furthermore, the use of polyvinylpyrrolidone and tannic acid will increase the raw materials and the tannic acid content of the materialThe equipment cost and the practicability are not strong. CN114335480B discloses a core-shell carbon-coated doped lithium iron phosphate, carbon and transition metal ions together form a shell to coat the cathode material, so as to solve the problems of uneven and non-compact coating of the carbon layer, easy agglomeration of crystal grains, and the like. However, the method is complex to operate, the cost of the used transition metal ion raw material is high, the performance improvement is not ideal, and the method is limited to use.
LiFePO can be increased by improving the preparation method 4 Properties of the material. CN114335517B discloses a carbon composite lithium iron phosphate positive electrode material. And (3) carrying out hydrothermal synthesis reaction to obtain a carbon composite lithium iron phosphate precursor, and then roasting the carbon composite lithium iron phosphate precursor in an inert atmosphere or a reducing atmosphere to obtain the carbon composite lithium iron phosphate anode material. By a hydrothermal method, a material with uniform phase, small grain diameter and good crystallinity can be prepared, thereby leading LiFePO 4 The material has higher gram capacity and excellent multiplying power performance, and the carbon coating is more uniform and the cycle life is longer. However, due to the fact that the particle size is uniform and smaller, many gaps among the particles cannot be filled, and the compaction density of the nano lithium iron phosphate material prepared by a common hydrothermal method is low. More importantly, both hydrothermal and solvothermal processes require high pressure conditions to be completed, which increases the process complexity and safety risks of the preparation and is not suitable for large-scale production.
Doping of the material is also an improvement in LiFePO 4 A method for effectively improving the performance of the material. CN116525797a discloses a fluorine-containing lithium iron phosphate composite material, a preparation method and application thereof. The fluorine and zirconium ion co-doped anode material with excellent electrochemical performance is prepared by adopting a hydrothermal method, and the final material has the characteristics of controllable morphology and uniform particle size, and further has excellent electrochemical performance. However, the zirconium source used in this method is expensive, and the fluorine used requires high-cost production and post-treatment equipment, which greatly increases the material preparation cost, and this limits the use of this method in industrial production.
In view of the above, there is a need to provide a new method for preparing lithium iron phosphate.

The technical principle of the invention is as follows:
due to the olivine structure of the lithium iron phosphate, the lithium iron phosphate can only be transported in a one-dimensional transportation mode in the circulating process, and the defect of poor lithium ion diffusion capability of the lithium iron phosphate material is caused. And under high rate conditions, the lithium ions that migrate during charging cannot return to the original lithium ion positions during discharge, which results in the formation of an iron phosphate phase during cycling, leaving a large number of lithium vacancies in the material. The migration of iron ions into lithium vacancies creates iron lithium defects that ultimately impede the transport of lithium ions. As the number of cycles increases, more and more lithium iron defects are generated, deteriorating the performance of lithium iron phosphate. Thus, fixing iron ions can prevent the formation of iron lithium defects. And the migration of iron ions is closely related to the stability of ferrite bonds, and according to d-band center theory, the movement of d-band away from fermi level leads to stronger bonding action of iron atoms with surrounding atoms.
After nitrogen atoms are introduced, a carbon-nitrogen coating layer is formed on the surface of the lithium iron phosphate material, so that the d-band center of the iron atoms is subjected to principle fermi level change, the bonding effect of iron-oxygen bonds is enhanced, the effect of fixing iron ions is achieved, and the formation of iron-lithium defects caused by the migration of the iron ions in the circulation process is effectively inhibited. And the introduction of nitrogen can reduce the barrier of lithium ion diffusion, so that the lithium ions realize rapid release and intercalation actions, the material can still exert good performance under the condition of high multiplying power, and the crystal structure is kept complete.

Comparative example 11
The positive electrode material used in this comparative example was purchased lithium iron phosphate powder.
The performance test method comprises the following steps:
the lithium iron phosphate materials prepared in each example and comparative example were subjected to the following electrochemical performance tests:
electrochemical testing: the lithium iron phosphate material prepared by the invention is prepared into a positive pole piece, the negative pole is a lithium piece, the diaphragm is Celgard2400, and the electrolyte is LiPF of 1mol/L 6 And mixing dimethyl carbonate and ethyl methyl carbonate (volume ratio is 1:1:1) to assemble the 2032 button cell. The preparation process of the positive pole piece comprises the following steps: mixing the anode material, the conductive agent Super P and the binder PVDF according to the mass percentage of 90:5:5, using N-methyl pyrrolidone as a solvent to prepare slurry, coating the slurry on an aluminum foil, and drying the slurry to prepare the anode pole piece. And testing the prepared button cell on a battery testing system of Shenzhen Xinwei limited company under normal temperature, wherein the charge-discharge voltage interval is 2.0-4.2V.
Lithium iron phosphate materials and other materials prepared in examples 1 to 4 and comparative examples 1 to 10 were assembled into button cells by the above-described methods for testing electrochemical properties of the button cells, and magnification conditions were set: the cycle was 8 times each at different rates of 0.2C,0.5C,1C,2C and 0.2C, resulting in capacity of the battery. The results obtained for button cells made of lithium iron phosphate materials under different conditions are shown in table 1.
TABLE 1 Performance test of lithium iron carbonate materials prepared in examples 1-4 and comparative examples 1-10
The result shows that the lithium iron phosphate material prepared by the method can exert good performance under various multiplying powers, and particularly under the condition of high multiplying power, the performance of the lithium iron phosphate material is far more than that of a lithium iron phosphate sample purchased in the market. Compared with comparative examples 1-2, the performance of the lithium iron phosphate material can be effectively improved by adding the carbon source and the biomolecular nitrogen source, and the result proves that the material performance is effectively improved compared with the traditional single homogeneous carbon coating (comparative example 2) by forming a heterogeneous coating layer to wrap the surface of the lithium iron phosphate through the interaction of glucose and alkaline biomolecules in the calcining process and forming a conductive network. In comparison of example 1 with example 4 and comparative examples 3 to 5, too much or too little nitrogen source and carbon source are added, which affects the properties of the final material: too much addition results in too thick coating layer, so that the migration path of lithium ions is too long, and the material performance is affected; and the addition of the nitrogen source and the carbon source is too small, so that a complete carbon coating layer cannot be formed, the conductivity of the material is affected, and the performance of the material is affected. Therefore, the addition amounts of the carbon source and the biomolecular nitrogen source need to be strictly controlled. Examples 1-3 demonstrate that different biomolecular nitrogen sources can affect the final material properties. By contrast, adenine can give the best material properties as a biomolecular nitrogen source. In comparison of example 1 with comparative example 6, the reasonable amount of lithium source addition also affects the performance of the final lithium iron phosphate material. The addition amount of the lithium source does not follow the molar ratio of iron to lithium of 1:1, but the lithium source is required to be excessive by 2% -5%. In comparison of example 1 with comparative examples 7 to 10, during the milling and calcining operation, it was necessary to strictly control the rotation speed and time of ball milling, the ball-material ratio, the solid content, the calcining temperature and time, so as to obtain a lithium iron phosphate material having good properties. The discharge capacity result of the subsequent button cell is shown in fig. 4, and the result shows that the material has excellent performance, and especially under the condition of high multiplying power, the discharge capacity of 2C can reach 149.68mAh/g.
