A kind of synthetic method of series nanometer lithium and manganese oxide for lithium ion battery
One, technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of preparation method of chemical power source positive electrode material, particularly a kind of preparation method of anode material for lithium-ion batteries exactly is a kind of synthetic method of series nanometer lithium and manganese oxide for lithium ion battery.
Two, background technology
Along with the fast development of electronic industry, require power supply to develop along the direction of miniaturization, high-energy-density and high power density.From nineteen ninety Japan Sony work out lithium ion battery for the first time since, this novel store battery has satisfied this requirement to a large extent.Lithium ion battery has been widely used among the electrical equipment of miniaturizations such as mobile phone, notebook computer now, and uses also first meeting achievement in electriclocomotive.
At present, the positive electrode material of lithium ion battery mainly is LiCoO
2(cobalt acid lithium), but because LiCoO
2Cost an arm and a leg, pollute greatly, the researchist is seeking hardy can substitute LiCoO
2Positive electrode material.Specific storage is big because lithium manganese oxide has, low price and the little advantage of pollution, people is looked it do the most attractive a kind of positive electrode material.Now, the method for preparing lithium manganese oxide mainly is solid reaction process, sol-gel method, coprecipitation method.Yet, these methods need powder to calcine under comparatively high temps inevitably, resulting solid product shows great ununiformity on structure, composition and size-grade distribution, and the whether even chemical property that influences electrode materials to a large extent of these factors.
The lithium manganese oxide of nanostructure has unique microtexture, has superior embedding lithium characteristic when making it as electrode, concrete shows: the insert depth of lithium ion is little, process short, has than bigger serface, helps bigger electric current it is discharged and recharged; And it has bigger embedding lithium locus, helps increasing the capacity of its embedding lithium.
U.S.'s " inorganic chemistry communication " (Inorganic Chemistry Communications) is (2004 recently, the 7th volume, the 308-310 page or leaf) reported potassium permanganate and hexadecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) mixing, be prepared into purple gel, be prepared into intermediate product through processes such as ageings, relief itself and lithium hydroxide solution adopt hydrothermal method to synthesize the lithium manganese oxide of spinel structure under 70 ℃-190 ℃ condition.But the intermediate steps of this method is various, and is difficult to extend to the serial lithium manganese oxide of preparation.
Three, summary of the invention
The present invention aims to provide lithium manganese oxide that a kind of new hydrothermal synthesis method prepares nanoscale to solve the even particle size distribution problem, provides a kind of chemical property good positive level material for lithium ion battery simultaneously.
