Description

Method for improving first coulomb efficiency of nickel-containing anode material of lithium ion battery and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of electrochemistry, and particularly relates to a method for improving the initial coulomb efficiency of a nickel-containing anode material of a lithium ion battery and application thereof.
Background
The positive electrode material adopted by the lithium ion battery is one of key materials for manufacturing the lithium ion battery, and occupies a core position in the lithium ion battery. Currently, the anode materials which are industrially applied mainly comprise lithium cobaltate, lithium manganate, ternary lithium nickel cobalt manganese oxide materials and lithium iron phosphate. The nickel cobalt lithium manganate and nickel cobalt lithium aluminate ternary material has the advantages of high electrochemical capacity, good cycle performance, easy synthesis, low raw material cost and the like, gradually replaces part of lithium cobaltate in recent years, and enters the market of small lithium battery anode materials. In addition, the lithium nickel cobalt manganese oxide nickel cobalt aluminate lithium nickel cobalt has high weight specific capacity and high weight energy density, is favorable for improving the weight energy density of the power lithium ion battery, and is also applied to the field of small and medium-sized lithium ion power batteries.
When preparing the positive electrode material containing Ni, Ni is used2+Is difficult to be completely oxidized into Ni3+Thus prepared Ni-containing3+The positive electrode material (2) usually contains a certain amount of Ni2+. Due to Ni2+Diameter and Li+The radii are very close, so Ni is in the material2+Possibly occupying Li+Position, and Li+May occupy Ni2+This is the cation-trapping phenomenon between Li and Ni. After the mixed-discharging between the transition metal ions and the lithium ions occurs, the movement of the lithium ions is obstructed by the transition metal ions, so the mixed-discharging of the cations causes the reduction of the electrochemical performance of the material in the aspects of reversible capacity, first efficiency and the like. In the first charge formation process of the battery made of the nickel-containing cathode material, lithium ions are extracted from the layered structure of the cathode and are embedded into the cathode, and Ni is added at the moment2+Will occupy Li in the lithium layer+The transmission of the position ions causes obstruction, so that a part of lithium ions can not be smoothly inserted into the crystal lattice of the anode material in the discharging process. Since the reversible capacity of the material is realized by reversible intercalation and deintercalation of lithium ions in the crystal lattice of the positive electrode, and the Li/Ni mixed-exclusion can cause the reversible intercalation and deintercalation quantity of the lithium ions to be reduced, the Li/Ni mixed-exclusion can reduce the first coulombic efficiency of the material. Meanwhile, during the first charge, Li in the lithium layer and the transition metal layer+Can be removed. However, during the first discharge, a part of lithium can not return to the crystal lattice of the transition metal layer, so that the first coulombic efficiency of the material is further reduced.
Currently, the mainstream nickel-containing anode material in the market, such as nickel-cobalt lithium aluminate (NCA) and nickel-cobalt lithium manganate (including NCM111, NCM523, NCM622, NCM811 and the like), has a coulombic efficiency of 82% -90% in the first charge and discharge of a button half cell of a lithium sheet, and the mainstream cathode material, such as natural graphite, mesocarbon microbeads and the like, has a coulombic efficiency of 91.5% -94% in the first charge and discharge of the lithium half cell, so that when the cathode of the current mainstream graphite carbon material is matched with the cathode of the current cathode of the button half cell, the gram capacities of the anode and the cathode are balanced according to the gram capacity of the first charge of the nickel-containing anode material in the lithium button half cell and the gram capacity of the cathode in the lithium button half cell, and the first coulombic efficiency of the designed full cell is controlled by the nickel-containing anode material with lower first coulombic efficiency in the anode and the cathode, the first coulomb efficiency of the nickel-containing anode material is improved, and then the first efficiency of the full cell can be improved.
At present, the first efficiency of improving the nickel-containing ternary material is mainly optimized in the material synthesis process. For example, as the content of Ni in reactants is increased in the synthesis process, the cation mixing degree is increased, and the impedance of the material is increased, and conversely, as the content of Li in the reactants is increased, the order degree of Li and Ni is increased, and the impedance is reduced, so that the occurrence of cation mixing can be reduced by adding excessive lithium in the synthesis process, but the introduction of excessive lithium can cause the alkalinity of the synthesized positive electrode material to be increased, influence the processability and stability in the material homogenizing and coating process, and increase the gas production in the formation process; in addition, Li can be reduced by lowering the firing temperature during the material synthesis+Vacancy, suppression of Ni2+The temperature is reduced, so that crystal grains are difficult to grow up, more closed holes are formed, and the improvement on the compaction density of the material is not favorable; the Ni can be inhibited by doping Mg, Al and other elements in the synthesis process2+But the doping of the metal element will sacrifice the gram capacity of the material, causing adverse effects. The lithium battery manufacturing industry needs to solve the bottleneck problem of improving the first coulomb efficiency of the nickel-containing anode material of the lithium ion battery.
