The preparation method of liquid is as follows:In CO2Under atmosphere, pressurize 0.3~0.5MPa, handles 120~480 seconds, carbonate aqueous solution is made.By
In CO2Constantly volatilization, carbonate aqueous solution is unstable, and the present embodiment dissolves 1 volume CO using 1 volume of water2Ratio prepare saturated carbon
Aqueous acid.
Comparative example 1
The place different from embodiment 1 of comparative example 1 is that the preparation method of anode sizing agent is different, other all sames, contrast
Example 1 prepares anode sizing agent using the method for CN105940530A patent application publications:Into double planetary mixer add CMC and
Aqueous binders, add acetic acid aqueous solution, stir 30min, add positive active material, and to slurry dough, stirring 2 is small
When, then qualified viscosity is diluted to deionized water, final system pH is 7.4,30min removing bubbles is vacuumized, finally with 150
Mesh sieve net filtration, completes the preparation of aqueous positive-pole slurry.
Comparative example 2
The place different from comparative example 1 of comparative example 2 is:CMC consumptions increase to 2% by 1%.
Comparative example 3
Comparative example 3 is not being modified positive active material using acidic aqueous solution with the different places of embodiment 1,
Final slurry pH value is 12.3.
The stability of anode sizing agent made from embodiment 1-4 and comparative example 1-3 is contrasted, as a result as shown in table 1.
Table 1
From table 1 it follows that embodiment 1 is modified using phosphoric acid to positive active material, places 20 hours and occur
Slight precipitation, illustrates that phosphoric acid carrys out uncertain factor to aqueous positive polar body frenulum, phosphoric acid is middle strong acid, may be in blending process
Influence is produced on sludge proof CMC, and causes CMC anti-settling effects under the reduction of CMC molecular weight or acid condition poor.Embodiment
2 to 4 are neutralized using weak acid, whole system pH value is maintained in the range of 7~8,48h slurries are not precipitated, no gelatin phenomenon.Contrast
Example 1 adds positive electrode using CMC+ aqueous binders+acidic aqueous solution mixing, in first step batch mixing, acidic aqueous solution
CMC+ aqueous binders is in sour environment, be unfavorable for CMC anti-settling, destroy CMC molecular structure, slurry glues
Degree is low, and is precipitated after standing serious.CMC additions are increased to 2% by comparative example 2, and anti-settling performance makes moderate progress, and are stood after 8h
Also precipitation generates.Comparative example 3 using acidic aqueous solution neutralize so that aqueous positive-pole slurry system pH value is higher, NCA easily with
Water reacts, and gel particle is produced after standing 4 hours, scraper is serious on a current collector for coating.
Battery made from embodiment 1-4 and comparative example 2-3 is subjected to peel test force, cycle charge discharge electrical testing and non-equality of temperature
The dilation test of the lower storage of degree, method of testing is with reference to company standard, and test result is as shown in table 2 and Fig. 1 to Fig. 4.
Table 2
The more unused acid of pole piece made from the anode sizing agent prepared it can be seen from table 2 and Fig. 1 to Fig. 4 with the inventive method
To pole piece made from the anode sizing agent of positive pole material modification, before and after roll-in, peeling force all increases significantly property solution, this be by
More stablize in the positive active material after modified neutralize, reduce the corrosion of strong basicity positive electrode active material confrontation foil, simultaneously
Add with aqueous binders compatibility, more uniformly spread positive active material, after coating coating densification flatness it is good.It is right
Ratio 2 is higher due to water-based thickener CMC contents, finds that portion of CMC is destroyed with reference to comparative example 1, peeling force is higher before roll-in,
Pressure process makes CMC strand displacements change, and the ability that destroyed CMC molecules resist extraneous stress is poor, therefore roll-in
Peeling force declines larger afterwards.
Lithium is not analysed in 0 degree of dissection of lithium battery made from embodiment 1 to 4, and lithium battery made from comparative example 2 slightly analyses lithium, mainly
Reason is water-based thickener CMC content increase, and battery internal resistance itself is larger.Lithium battery made from comparative example 3 has obvious analysis
Lithium phenomenon, illustrates that unneutralized NCA material scatters are poor, poor with water-based system matching.It follows that passing through the modified positive pole of acid
Active material, has neutralized the LiOH of residual, it is therefore prevented that the alkaline matter in NCA reacts with water, and then causes battery overall
Electrical property is obviously improved.The present invention also demonstrates weak acid system simultaneously, and such as oxalic acid and acetic acid have more preferable neutralization, compared
In phosphoric acid, acid weaker, reaction is gentle, will not destroy the physical property of water-based thickener, binding agent;Compared to carbonic acid, carbonic acid can be
Largely volatilized in coating process, cause remaining acidic materials to reduce, make neutralization not thorough, leave a part of alkaline matter.
From the point of view of 25 degree of 1C/1C loop test results, embodiment 3 is modified using acetic acid, for comparative example 3, circulates the longevity
Life is obviously improved, and is further illustrated the necessity of the modified positive pole NCA materials of acid, is prevented moisture and positive pole during repeated charge
A series of side reactions of alkaline matter in material.
In summary, the present invention is modified by acidic aqueous solution to positive active material, can improve aqueous positive-pole high
The electrical property of nickel system, is particularly helpful to reduce influence of the moisture content to high-nickel material, to improving anode pole piece planarization, reduction pair
The corrosivity of foil, improves pole piece peeling force, further improves the dilatancy of high temperature storage, while extending lithium ion battery
Cycle life.
