Description

A kind of preparation method of cathode material for high capacity lithium ion battery
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of preparation method of cathode material for high capacity lithium ion battery, belong to technical field of lithium ion.
Background technology
The secondary cell of the novel green that lithium ion battery is wide as a kind of high voltage, high-energy-density, lightness, serviceability temperature, have extended cycle life, security performance is good, be widely used in each electronic product at present, as portable sets such as notebook computer, mobile phones, electric automobile, electrical energy storage, the aerospace satellite, miniature electronic device or the like.
At present, the negative material that is used to lithium ion battery mainly is various material with carbon elements such as petroleum coke, carbon fiber, RESEARCH OF PYROCARBON, native graphite, Delanium, and its major advantage is its efficiency for charge-discharge height, have good cycle life.But the theoretical specific capacity of material with carbon element has only 372mAh/g, and actual capacity is lower, can not satisfy the further demand of people to high-capacity battery.The non-carbon negative pole material of many novel alloy type is suggested, as Sn, Sb, Al, Si, Ag etc. can with Li alloyed metal (AM) and alloy thereof, their reversible lithium storage capacity is all much larger than the graphite-like negative material.But the subject matter of alloy type negative material is very easily efflorescence in the repeated charge process, thereby adds the contact resistance between the bulky grain, causes the cycle life of electrode on the low side.A kind of way is to adopt superfine alloy and activity/nonactive composite alloy system, and the absolute volume of each particle of superfine alloy in charge and discharge process changes less, and non-active material plays the effect of dispersion, buffer medium.Should have good cyclicity and less capacitance loss as lithium ion battery negative material.SnSb alloy for example is because alloying reaction (Li can both take place with Li in two kinds of elements of Sn and Sb 22Sn 5: 994mAh/g, Li 3Sb:660mAh/g), the high theoretical capacity being arranged, shown electrochemical behavior preferably, is a kind of kamash alloy class negative material likely, is subject to people's attention.But, different preparation methods the alloy material performance difference that arrives very big.The preparation method of present SnSb alloy mainly contains methods such as solwution method, solid reaction process and prepares the SnSb alloy.Solwution method generally is to use NaBH 4Or the Zn powder is that the chloride of reducing agent reducing metal salt in the aqueous solution or organic solvent obtains alloy.Although this method can prepare short grained SnSb alloyed powder, but, often there are remaining boron element, chloride ion or hydroxide ion in the surface of SnSb alloyed powder, be difficult to remove clean, electrochemical behavior to electrode can produce certain influence, preparation technology is difficult to control, and synthetic cost is higher.The solid reaction process preparation method is easy, and cost is low, but the powder particle size that obtains is bigger, and cycle performance is very undesirable.
Summary of the invention
The purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of ultra micro powder particles and preparation method thereof that is suitable for as lithium ion battery alloy class negative material.
Ultra micro powder particles provided by the present invention is that granularity is the alloying pellet of 1nm to 1000nm, and preferred 1nm is to 300nm.The preferred SnSb of described alloy ultra micro powder particles, SnFe, SnNi, SiNi or SiFe etc. wherein most preferably are SnSb.
Preparing above-mentioned alloy ultra micro powder particles may further comprise the steps:
(1) smelt stage: each component (being generally two kinds of components) that desire is prepared alloy is in predetermined ratio batching, in inert atmosphere, obtain alloy pig with the arc heating melting, for each component is mixed, alloy pig will spin upside down and carry out repeatedly melting several times.
Usually alloy compositions is placed on the water-cooling subbase in the reaction cavity (reaction chamber of hydrogen arc-plasma preparation facilities as shown in Figure 1) of a sealing (being generally copper coin), in inert atmospheres such as argon gas, obtains alloy pig with the arc heating melting.
(2) the powder process stage: after smelt stage is finished, inert gas is taken out a part, feed a certain amount of hydrogen then, control arc current, arc voltage and atmosphere total pressure etc. make alloy begin a large amount of evaporations and generation ultra micro powder particles.
The content of above-mentioned hydrogen is 0~100%, general≤50%; The value of electric current is 50~1000A, is generally 100~300A; Magnitude of voltage is<safe voltage of 36V, be generally 20~25V; The atmosphere total pressure generally is no more than 0.1Mpa.
(3) the passivation stage: will carry out Passivation Treatment to the ultra micro powder particles after powder process is finished, to prevent its spontaneous combustion in air.
Passivation is meant under the condition of a gentleness, make the surface of metal particles that obtains form the very thin oxide layer of one deck, oxidized thereby no longer continue the inside of protection particle, conventional method is to vacuumize after preparation is finished, in cavity, feed very a spot of air again, keep a few hours; Or after preparation finishes, in cavity, feed the mixed atmosphere of very a spot of air and gases such as argon gas or nitrogen, wherein the content of air generally is controlled at below 10%, maintenance a few hours.
(4) collection phase: will collect with standby through the ultra micro powder particles of Passivation Treatment.
Can collect the ultra micro powder particles by centrifugal collector or filtering type gatherer.
When preparation alloy ultra micro powder particles, because the evaporation rate difference of different elements can cause the deviation of composition, so, must carry out composition according to concrete alloy in the preparation and regulate.
Factors such as the ratio of adjusting hydrogen and argon gas, current value, atmosphere total pressure can be controlled at the size of particle nanometer or accurate nanoscale, and the composition of alloying pellet can be regulated by ratio, current value, the atmosphere total pressure factor of foundry alloy composition, hydrogen and argon gas.
Preparing ultra micro powder alloying pellet with hydrogen arc plasma process of the present invention, to have equipment simple, and aggregate velocity is fast, and cost is low, product purity height, advantage such as the ultra micro powder kind that can synthesize is many.The speed that forms nano particle under hydrogen arc plasma concrete conditions in the establishment of a specific crime is bigger several times to tens times than vacuum vapor deposition method, realizes suitability for industrialized production easily.Ultra micro powder material of the present invention is during as lithium ion battery negative material, and the specific capacity height is that the twice of graphite is many as the reversible specific capacity first of SnSb alloy; Prepared material is nanometer or accurate nano-scale, and particle is little, has better cyclical stability than micron order material; Prepared ultra micro powder microscopic appearance microspheroidal have than with the littler specific area of other pattern material of yardstick, thereby it is lower than the irreversible capacity first with the yardstick material.
