Description

The manufacture method of positive electrode material for secondary battery
Technical field
[0001] the application based on March 27th, 2007 spy in Japanese publication be willing to 2007-82102 number and on December 5th, 2007 spy in Japanese publication be willing to that advocate priority, its content is introduced the application 2007-315091 number.
[0002] the present invention relates to reversibly occlusion and discharge the method for making and the utilization of this positive electrode in secondary cell of the positive electrode of lithium ion.
Background technology
[0003] as secondary cell, used plumbous secondary cell, NI-G secondary cell, Ni-MH battery etc. in the past, but in recent years, the high performance of electronic equipments such as mobile phone, video camera, notebook computer is surprising, therefore, it is also strong day by day to the requirement of high performance to constitute the secondary cell of power supply of these electronic equipments.
[0004] use carbon class material as negative material and use the lithium rechargeable battery of lithium compound as the rechargeable nonaqueous electrolytic battery of positive electrode, by occlusion and the release that utilizes lithium, can suppress the growth of skeleton and the powdered of lithium, therefore, has good cycle life performance, in addition, can also reach high-energy-densityization, high capacity.As above-mentioned lithium compound, for example, LiCoO 2, LiNiO 2, LiMn 2O 4Deng lithium transition-metal oxide practicability.
[0005] still, lithium rechargeable battery uses the formation element of the transition metal of high price as positive electrode, and, most with LiCoO 2, LiNiO 2, LiMn 2O 4Be the positive electrode in the past of representative, each transition metal atoms reversibly occlusion/release lithium atom seldom, be about 0.5.Therefore, hope can more effectively utilize transition metal, and develops with the positive electrode of abundanter and more cheap element as matrix.
[0006] in addition, positive electrode in the past is existing problems aspect stability of working and fail safe generally, specifically, not only can not demonstrate enough stability at aspects such as high-temperature cycle, preservation characteristics, self-discharge characteristics, and owing to decomposes produces oxygen, become main cause on fire, thereby produce the problem of secure context.Can think that its reason is that not only because high voltage has caused the reactivity of interior electrolyte of lithium rechargeable battery and electrode to improve, and the crystalline texture of electrode material itself also is a reason.
[0007] therefore, a part of transition metal of studying at present by substituting in the above-mentioned lithium transition-metal oxide with nonmetalloids such as phosphorus, silicon, boron further improves the characteristic of lithium transition-metal oxide as positive pole.For example, the spy opens the 2001-180939 communique, international disclose No. 2005/99022 brochure and internationally disclose No. 2005/99023 brochure and disclose and pass through LiMn 2O 4, LiCoO 2Be replaced by the technology that phosphorus, silicon, boron wait the high-temperature cycle of improving secondary cell, preservation characteristics, self-discharge characteristics etc. Deng about 10~20% of transition metal.
[0008] yet, in the case, for example, for LiCoO 2; according to reports; silicone content is single phase 10% when following; and reach phase (the SolidState Ionics (2006) that will form other at 35% o'clock; 177 (3-4); 317-322), replace transition metal and the system that forms, the material that to can be described as a kind of mol ratio that obviously is different from transition metal and silicic acid be about 1: 1 lithium transition-metal silicate with a spot of silicon.
[0009] on the other hand, about the mol ratio of transition metal and silicic acid about 1: 1 lithium transition-metal silicate, for example have with the report (Electrochemistry Communications 7 (2005) 156-160s) of lithium metasilicate as the lithium transition-metal silicate in silicon source, this silicate demonstrates can be as the possibility of the positive pole of so-called lithium rechargeable battery.
[0010] yet, the mol ratio of transition metal and silicic acid is about 1: 1 a lithium transition-metal silicate, owing to generally synthesize by carrying out high temperature sintering as raw material with inorganic compounds such as inorganic lithium salt, transition metal salt, silicon dioxide, be difficult to control degree of crystallinity, particle diameter and the particle size distribution of product, therefore, its performance is compared with lithium transition-metal oxide in the past, may not be suitable for positive electrode.That is, there is following problem substantially in these materials: reversibly the capacity of occlusion and release lithium ion is very low, and, along with discharging and recharging operation repeatedly, the charge-discharge characteristic deterioration.
