Along with the increasing demand of high-energy-density energy storage equipment, lithium ion batteries become the most widely used portable storage equipment at present due to the advantages of long cycle life, high energy density, good multiplying power performance and the like. One of the key challenges in designing fast charge lithium ion batteries is to build high rate and excellent safety anode materials. The negative electrode materials of the lithium ion battery mainly comprise three kinds of graphite (theoretical specific capacity 372 mAh/g), but the capacity of natural graphite and artificial graphite is hardly improved because the capacity of the natural graphite and the artificial graphite is applied to the basic theoretical limit value of raw materials. Secondly, both the conductivity and the capacity of the nanostructured carbon based materials and metal oxides are low and the performance is poor. For the silicon-carbon anode material, various lithium silicon compounds are formed in the silicon-lithium alloying process, the phase change is complex, the volume change in the charging and discharging process is large, and the stability is poor. Finally, for the phosphorus-based negative electrode material, the natural reserve resources of phosphorus are rich, the price is low, and the theoretical specific capacity is as high as 2596mAh/g (Li 3 P), lower voltage plateau (Li/Li) + 0.8V), phosphorus and silicon are both alloyed cathodes, but the lithium intercalation potential is high, and lithium precipitation potential is difficult to reach even if polarization occurs at high magnification. However, the disadvantages of the phosphorus-based anode material are obvious, such as poor conductivity, high expansion rate and the like, which lead to poor cycling stability of the electrode material in the charge and discharge processes, thereby greatly limiting the application of the phosphorus-based anode material in metal ion batteries.
Therefore, it is needed to provide a composite material, which can effectively relieve the volume expansion of the battery during the charge and discharge process, and improve the cycle performance, conductivity and rate performance of the material, so that the prepared battery has good rate performance and cycle stability.
