A kind of preparation method of lithium-rich manganese-based anode material hydroxide precursor
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of preparation method of lithium-rich manganese-based anode material hydroxide precursor, belong to lithium battery material
Preparing technical field.
Background technology
The contradiction of energy demand and change that the increasingly depleted of the non-renewable energy resources such as oil, coal and the mankind grow with each passing day
The considerable damage that the greenhouse gases of stone fuel combustion generation, pollutant etc. cause to environment, leads to current global warming, disease wantonly
Cruel and natural disaster takes place frequently, and order is it was recognized that find the urgency of the alternative energy source of cleaning.With electric automobile and electrical network accumulation of energy
For the lithium-ion-power cell of future generation of great application background, both can improve energy use efficiency, reduce greenhouse gases and dirt
Those can be had the produced electric energy of the clean energy resourcies such as periodic wind energy, solar energy, tide energy again and carry out effectively by dye thing discharge
Adjust, with energy saving.Under the primary condition meeting the aspects such as safe and environment-friendly, cost, life-span, Key Performance Indicator is high
Energy density and repid discharge ability. for example, beautiful, Deng state requires to reach to the energy density of lithium-ion-power cell of future generation
300Wh/kg, is more than 2 times of the lithium iron phosphate dynamic battery energy density currently developing.The low capacity of positive electrode
Become the bottleneck improving lithium ion battery energy density further, need the novel anode material of exploitation higher capacity badly.In recent years
Carry out stratiform richness lithium Mn base anode material xLi2MnO3·(1-x)LiMO2(M is Mn, Ni, Co or a combination thereof) has Fabrication of High Specific Capacitance because of it
The unusual electrifications such as amount (200~300mAh/g), inexpensive, outstanding circulation ability and new charge discharge mechanism
Learn performance to be received significant attention, be seen as positive electrode current commercialization main product LiCoO2Succedaneum well.This material
Mainly based on manganese element, and manganese is cheap, and energy density is higher, more friendly to environment, is lithium ion
One of direction of positive electrode development.
The spherical anode material synthetic technology of industrialization usually first prepares spherical precursor, then heat after mixing with lithium source
Process obtains material requested.But there is many asking in order to prepare the precursor technique of rich lithium manganese base solid solution positive electrode at present
Topic:If it does precipitant using alkaline hydrated oxide first, due to Mn (OH)2Solubility product Ksp=1.9 × 10-13Hence it is evident that it is high
In Ni (OH)2With Co (OH)2(respectively 2.0 × 10-15With 1.6 × 10-15), it is easily caused that presoma primary particle is tiny, transition
Metallic element composite distribution lack of homogeneity, also can easily the moisture absorption oxidized, and primary particle particle diameter is tiny is unfavorable for surface modification,
Hardly result in the modified product of stable and consistent.So in order to obtain spherical morphology during precursor synthesis, general employing is added
Chelating agent suppresses into nuclear reaction.But prior art typically adopts ammonia etc. as single chelating agent, high Mn content precursor crystal
Based on one-dimensional or two-dimensional growth, between primary particle, arch formation substantially, causes material tap density low for growth;And according to
Carbonate be precipitant although balling-up is good, but be not easily controlled particle size distribution, and final richness Mn-based material electrical property produced
Raw material impact;Secondly tap density is low, and surface residual alkali amount may be very high, and it is unfavorable that cycle life and specific energy raising are had
Impact.These unfavorable factors suppress its business-like development.
Patent documentation CN102881886A discloses a kind of before being precipitant low temperature preparation richness lithium solid solution using carbonate
The method of body, the method embodiment is obtained only 1~3 μm of lithium solid solution cathode material particle diameter of richness, and particle diameter is less to lead to material to add
Work poor-performing.
