Description
ANODE MATERIAL FOR LITHIUM SECONDARY CELL WITH HIGH CAPACITY
Technical Field The present invention relates to an anode material for a lithium secondary cell and a lithium secondary cell using the same.
Background Art Currently, carbonaceous materials are used as anode materials for lithium secondary cells. However, it is necessary to use an anode material with a higher capacity in order to further improve the capacity of a lithium secondary cell.
For the purpose of satisfying such demands, metals or metalloids capable of forming alloys electrochemically with lithium, for example Si, Al, etc., which have a higher charge /discharge capacity, may be considered for use as anode materials. However, such metal or metalloid-based anode materials undergo extreme changes in volume, as lithium intercalation/deintercalation progresses, and thus the active materials are finely divided and the lithium cells have poor cycle life characteristics.
Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2001-297757 discloses an anode material essentially comprising an a-phase (e.g. Si) consisting of at least one element capable of lithium intercalation/ deintercalation and a P-phase that is an intermetallic compound or solid solution of the element with another element (b).
However, the anode material according to the prior art cannot provide sufficient and acceptable cycle life characteristics, and thus it may not be used as a practical anode material for a lithium secondary cell.
Disclosure of the Invention Therefore, the present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide an anode material for a lithium secondary cell having a high charge /discharge capacity and excellent cycle life characteristics.
It is another object of the present invention to provide an anode material for a lithium secondary cell, the anode material comprising a metal or metalloid layer (core layer) capable of repetitive lithium intercalation/
deintercalation, the surface of which is partially or totally coated with amorphous carbonaceous materials and crystalline carbonaceous materials, successively. By using the aforesaid anode material, it is possible to inhibit changes in the volume of a metal or metalloid caused by the progress of lithium intercalation/deintercalation and to maintain a high electron conductivity among anode material particles, thereby providing a high charge/discharge capacity and excellent cycle life characteristics.
It is still another object of the present invention to provide a lithium secondary cell using the aforementioned anode material.
According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided an anode material comprising: a metal or metalloid core layer capable of repetitive lithium intercalation/deintercalation; an amorphous carbon layer coated on the surface of the metal or metalloid core layer;

According to the present invention, the metal or metalloid core layer can provide a high charge /discharge capacity.
Additionally, the amorphous carbon layer and the crystalline carbon layer can inhibit changes in the volume of a metal or metalloid caused by the progress of lithium intercalation/deintercalation, thereby improving the cycle life characteristics.
Even if a metal or metalloid layer, for example a metal or metalloid layer formed of Si, has electron conductivity and lithium ion conductivity to permit lithium intercalation/
deintercalation, the electron conductivity, in this case, is too low to allow smooth progress of lithium intercalation/
deintercalation. Therefore, the lithium intercalation/deintercalation property can be improved by forming a crystalline carbon. layer so as to reduce contact resistance between an active material layer and a current collector, and contact resistance among active material particles.
The coating layers including the amorphous carbon layer and the crystalline carbon layer may partially or totally cover the surface of the metal or metalloid core layer.

Detailed Description of the Preferred Embodiments FIG. 1 is a sectional view of an anode material according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.
As can be seen from FIG. 1, the surface of a metal or metalloid capable of electromechanical charge /discharge is coated with a surface layer consisting of an amorphous carbon layer and a crystalline carbon layer.
Metals or metalloids for forming the metal or metalloid core layer may include at least one metal or metalloid selected from the group consisting of Si, Al, Sn, Sb, Bi, As, Ge and Pb or alloys thereof. However, there is no particular limitation in the metals or metalloids, as long as they are capable of electrochemical and reversible lithium intercalation/ deintercalation.
The amorphous carbon may include carbonaceous materials obtained by the heat-treatment of coal tar pitch, petroleum pitch and various organic materials.
The crystalline carbon may include natural graphite, artificial graphite, etc. having a high degree of graphitization, and such graphite-based materials may include MCMB (MesoCarbon MicroBead), carbon fiber and natural graphite.
Preferably, the ratio of the metal or metalloid core layer to the amorphous carbon layer to the crystalline carbon layer is 90-10 wt% : 0.1-50 wt% : 9-90 wt%. If the core layer is present in an amount less than 10 wt%, reversible capacity is low, and thus it is not possible to provide an anode material having a high capacity. If the crystalline carbon layer is present in an amount less than 9 wt%, it is not possible to ensure sufficient conductivity. Further, the amorphous carbon layer is present in an amount less than 0.1 wt%, it is not possible to inhibit the expansion of a metal or metalloid sufficiently, while it is present in an amount greater than 50 wt%, there is a possibility for the reduction of capacity and conductivity.
The anode material according to the present invention may be prepared as follows. The amorphous carbon layer may be directly coated on the metal or metalloid forming the core layer by a thin film deposition process such as CVD (chemical vapor deposition), PVD (physical vapor deposition), etc.
Otherwise, the metal or metalloid core layer is coated with various organic material precursors such as petroleum pitch, coal tar pitch, phenolic resins, PVC (polyvinyl chloride), PVA (polyvinyl alcohol), etc., and then the precursors are heat treated under inert atmosphere, at 500-1300 C for 30 minutes to 3 hours so as to be carbonized, thereby coating the amorphous carbon layer on the metal or metalloid core layer. Next, to a mixture containing 90-98 wt% of crystalline carbonaceous materials and 2-10 wt% of a binder optionally with 5 wt% or less of a conducting agent, an adequate amount of a solvent is added, and the resultant mixture is homogeneously mixed to form slurry. The slurry is coated on the amorphous carbon layer and then dried to form the crystalline carbonaceous layer.
In a variant, a metal or metalloid forming the core layer is mixed with crystalline carbon in a predetermined ratio, for example, in the ratio of 10-90 wt%:90-10wt% of the metal or metalloid to the crystalline carbon. Then, the amorphous carbon layer and the crystalline carbon layer may be simultaneously formed by using a technique such as a ball mill method, a mechano-fusion method and other mechanical alloying methods.
Mechanical alloying methods provide alloys having uniform composition by applying mechanical forces.
Preferably, in the amorphous carbon layer, the interlayer distance (d002) of carbon is 0.34 nm or more and the thickness is 5 nm or more. If the thickness is less than 5 nm, it is not possible to inhibit changes in the volume of the metal or metalloid core layer sufficiently. If the interlayer distance is less than 0.34 nm, the coating layer itself may undergo an extreme change in volume as the result of repetitive charge /discharge cycles, and thus it is not possible to inhibit changes in the volume of the metal or metalloid core layer sufficiently, thereby detracting from cycle life characteristics.
Preferably, in the crystalline carbon layer, the interlayer distance (d002) of carbon ranges from 0.3354 nm to 0.35 nm. The lower limit value is the theoretically smallest interlayer distance of graphite and a value less than the lower limit value does not exist. Additionally, carbon having an interlayer distance greater than the upper limit value is poor in conductivity, so that the coating layer has low conductivity, and thus it is not possible to obtain excellent lithium intercalation/deintercalation property.
Further, although there is no particular limitation in the thickness of the crystalline carbon layer, the thickness preferably ranges from 1 micron to 10 microns. If the thickness is less than 1 micron, it is difficult to ensure sufficient conductivity among particles. On the other hand, the thickness is greater than 15 microns, carbonaceous materials occupy a major proportion of the anode material, and thus it is not possible to obtain a high charge/discharge capacity.
Metals or metalloids for forming the metal or metalloid core layer may include at least one metal or metalloid selected from the group consisting of Si, Al, Sn, Sb, Bi, As, Ge and Pb or alloys thereof. However, there is no particular limitation in the metals or metalloids, as long as they are capable of electrochemical and reversible lithium intercalation/ deintercalation.

The lithium secondary cell according to the present invention utilizes the above-described anode material according to the present invention.
In one embodiment, to prepare an anode by using the anode material according to the present invention, the anode material powder according to the present invention is mixed with a binder and a solvent, and optionally with a conducting agent and a dispersant, and the resultant mixture is agitated to form paste (slurry). Then, the paste is coated on a collector made of a metal, and the coated collector is compressed and dried to provide an anode having a laminated structure.

This is also included in the scope of the present invention.
Reference will now be made in detail to the preferred embodiments of the present invention. The following examples are illustrative only, and the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto.
Example 1 Natural graphite was mixed with Si in a ratio of 50 wt%:50 wt%. Then, mechanical alloying of the mixture was performed by using a Mechano Fusion device available from Hosokawa Micron Company under a rotation speed of 600 rpm for 30 minutes to obtain an anode material. As shown in FIG. 6, the resultant anode material was composed of a Si metalloid layer, an amorphous carbon layer and a crystalline carbon layer.
In order to evaluate the anode material, the anode material powder was mixed with 10 wt% of PVDF as a binder, 10 wt% of acetylene black as a conducting agent and NMP as a solvent to form homogeneous slurry. The slurry was coated on a copper foil, dried, rolled and then punched into a desired size to obtain an anode. A coin type cell was formed by using the anode, a lithium metal electrode as a counter electrode and an electrolyte containing 1 mole of LiPF6 dissolved in EC
and EMC.
Example 2 Example 1 was repeated to obtain an anode material and a coin type cell, except that Si was substituted with an alloy having the composition of Si 62 wt% + Co 38% and obtained by a gas atomization method.
Comparative Example 1 Example 1 was repeated to obtain a coin type cell, except using an anode material obtained by carrying out mechanical alloying of Si for 30 minutes by using a mechano fusion device.
Comparative Example 2 Example 1 was repeated to obtain a coin type cell, except that an alloy having the composition of Si 62 wt% + Co 38% and obtained by a gas atomization method was used as an anode material.
Comparative Example 3 Example 1 was repeated to obtain an anode material and a coin type cell, except that Si and graphite were substituted with Si and inherently amorphous hard carbon. The resultant anode material in this case was composed of a Si metalloid layer and an amorphous carbon layer.
Comparative Example 4 A Si-Co alloy was mixed with graphite micropowder having an average particle diameter of 5 microns or less, and the mixture was treated with a hybridization system for 3 minutes to form an anode material, which was composed of a metal or metalloid layer and an crystalline carbon layer.
Example 1 was repeated to obtain a coin type cell, except that the anode material obtained as described above was used.
Experimental Results As shown in FIG. 2, the cell obtained by using an anode material according to Example 1 maintained its initial capacity until 50 cycles. On the other hand, the capacity of the cell obtained by using an anode material according to Comparative Example 1 reduced rapidly in several cycles from the initial point. Such a trend can be seen also from FIG. 3 illustrating the cycle life characteristics of the cells obtained from Example 2 and Comparative Example 2.
It seems that the anode materials according to Examples 1 and 2 substantially have no changes in their particles, before and after charge/discharge, and thus can provide excellent cycle life characteristics (See, (A) and (B) in FIG. 4). On the other hand, it seems that the anode materials according to Comparative Examples 1 and 2 undergo changes in volume as a result of repetitive charge/discharge, and thus their particles were transformed into porous particles so that their availability was reduced, thereby rapidly detracting from cycle life characteristics (See, (A) and (B) in FIG. 5).
Meanwhile, after completion of 3 cycles of charge/discharge, coin cells were decomposed and thickness of each electrode was measured. In case of using the anode material according to Comparative Example 2, the electrode thickness increased by about 300%, i.e., from 28 pm to 83pm.
On the other hand, in the case of using the anode material according to Example 2, the electrode thickness increased by about 50%, i.e., from 33jun to 50W. Therefore, it can be seen that the anode material according to Example 2 inhibits the volume expansion.
FIG. 6 is a TEM photo of the anode material according to Example 1. By observing the section of the anode material having excellent properties as described above, it can be seen that an amorphous carbon layer is present on the surface of a metal or metalloid core layer. In Fig. 6, the left side is a part corresponding to Si and the right side is a part corresponding to carbon. As can be seen from FIG. 6, Si retains an excellent crystalline property by the interface between Si and carbon, while carbon loses its inherent crystalline property and provides an amorphous layer in a thickness of about 30 nm.
Further, as can be seen from FIG. 7, excellent cycle life characteristics can be obtained in the case of coexistence of amorphous and crystalline carbon layers. This can be demonstrated by comparing Comparative Example 3 (black line) including a metal or metalloid layer coated only with an amorphous carbon layer, Comparative Example 4 (green line) including a metal or metalloid layer coated only with a crystalline carbon layer, and Example 1 (red line) including a metal or metalloid layer coated with an amorphous carbon layer and a crystalline carbon layer, successively.
Industrial Applicability As can be seen from the foregoing, the anode material according to the present invention not only maintains a high charge /discharge capacity, which is an advantage of a metal or metalloid-based anode material, but also inhibits changes in the volume of a metal or metalloid core layer caused by repetitive lithium intercalation/ deintercalation in virtue of an amorphous carbon layer and a crystalline carbon layer, thereby improving the cycle life characteristics of cells.
In order to prepare the cell according to the present invention, a porous separator may be used. Particularly, the porous separator may be polyproplene-based, polyethylene-based and polyolefin-based porous separators, but is not limited thereto.
Non-aqueous electrolyte that may be used in the lithium secondary cell according to the present invention may include cyclic carbonates and linear carbonates. Typical examples of cyclic carbonates include ethylene carbonate (EC), propylene carbonate (PC), y-butyrolactone (GBL) or the like. Typical examples of linear carbonates include diethyl carbonate (DEC), dimethyl carbonate (DMC), ethylmethyl carbonate (EMC), and methylpropyl carbonate (MPC). If desired, electrolyte additives, such as VC(Vinylene Carbonate), PS(1,3-Propane Sultone), ES(Ethylene Sulfite), CHB(Cyclohexyl Benzene), etc., can be used. Further, the non-aqueous electrolyte of the lithium secondary cell according to the present invention further comprises lithium salts in addition to the carbonate compounds. Particular examples of the lithium salts include LiC104, LiCF3SO3r LiPF6, LiBF4, LiAsF6, LiN (CF3SO2) 2, or the like.
A lithium ion secondary cell is a typical example of non-aqueous electrolyte-based secondary cells.

It seems that the anode materials according to Examples 1 and 2 substantially have no changes in their particles, before and after charge/discharge, and thus can provide excellent cycle life characteristics (See, (A) and (B) in FIG. 4). On the other hand, it seems that the anode materials according to Comparative Examples 1 and 2 undergo changes in volume as a result of repetitive charge/discharge, and thus their particles were transformed into porous particles so that their availability was reduced, thereby rapidly detracting from cycle life characteristics (See, (A) and (B) in FIG. 5).

Further, as can be seen from FIG. 7, excellent cycle life characteristics can be obtained in the case of coexistence of amorphous and crystalline carbon layers. This can be demonstrated by comparing Comparative Example 3 (black line) including a metal or metalloid layer coated only with an amorphous carbon layer, Comparative Example 4 (green line) including a metal or metalloid layer coated only with a crystalline carbon layer, and Example 1 (red line) including a metal or metalloid layer coated with an amorphous carbon layer and a crystalline carbon layer, successively.
