Description

Composite cathode material and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to a composite cathode material and a preparation method and application thereof, in particular to a novel high-power application composite cathode material based on a rock-salt defect-rich layer-coated layered nanocrystal and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the field of nanomaterials and the field of electrochemical energy storage devices.
Background
The development and breakthrough of the high-performance new energy storage material with the limited performance of the existing material are key and important supports for researching and developing next-generation high-performance energy storage devices. The electrode material for the lithium ion battery follows a bulk phase energy storage mechanism, high energy storage is realized by relying on the pseudocapacitance de-intercalation reaction of lithium ions in the electrode material crystal, and the high power characteristic of high-speed charge/discharge cannot be realized due to the limit of bulk phase diffusion rate; the future application of traction puts forward the requirement of comprehensive performance generation grade jump considering high energy storage density, high specific power, long service life, high safety and the like to an energy storage device, breaks through the existing research level and cognitive ability from the perspective of structure-activity relation of material structure-performance, develops a new electrode material microstructure and a construction/regulation technology thereof, realizes a novel energy storage/discharge mechanism based on the new structure, and is an important research direction for developing a high-performance new energy storage material breaking through the limit performance of the existing material.
LiMO of traditional lithium battery anode material2The layered material structure has large particle size reaching dozens of microns based on the requirement of electrochemical stability. The stability of the material is ensured, and the problem that the lithium ion conduction cannot be rapidly carried out due to the overlong ion diffusion length under the condition of high-rate charge and discharge cannot be solved. Taking lithium cobaltate as an example, the lithium cobaltate positive electrode material has better high-low temperature performance and rate capability, but the system is only 4.2V, because the current LiCoO2Typically only half of its theoretical capacity is utilized. Such high irreversible capacity is mainly associated with LiCoO2A series of phase changes during lithium intercalation/deintercalation. In a low voltage region, there is an insulator-metal phase transition, and when charged to 4.2V, about 50% of Li ions are extracted and the material undergoes an order-disorder transition from a hexagonal structure to a monoclinic structure, and when charged to 4.5V or more, LiCoO2Undergoes another transition from the O3 phase to the H1-3 or O6 phase. These phase transitions are reversible, but the order-disorder transition substantially reduces Li+And transition to a transition state, mechanical strain and inter/intra particle microcracks, resulting in deeply charged LiCoO2There is a significant capacity fade. Thus, LiCoO is now in phase2The charging voltage is limited to 4.2V. Upgrading LiCoO2The specific energy and specific power can be increased by the charge cut-off voltage of (2), but increasing the charge cut-off voltage gives LiCoO2The safety performance of the device brings hidden danger. To maintain LiCoO2Structural integrity and stable Electrochemical performance, various improved techniques have been developed, among which better results have been achieved by means of doping of metal elements (Mn, Ni, etc.) (Journal of the Electrochemical Society,2000,147(9):3183-s&Interfaces,2016,8(4): 2723-; nanoscale,2014,6(2): 860-; NPG Asia Materials,2014,6(9): e126.), and reacting LiCoO2The charging voltage is increased from 4.2V to 4.35V, the capacity is also increased to 165mAh/g, however, manganese has no electrochemical activity in the charging and discharging processes, and the initial discharge capacity is reduced; despite Ni2+/Ni4+The redox reaction of (2) improves charge-discharge capacity, but Ni2+The close particle radius of (r 0.069nm) and Li + (r 0.076nm) results in cation mixing and poor electrochemical performance. After primary doping, the mixture is charged to 4.4V, and the initial discharge capacity under 0.1C multiplying power is close to 180mAh g-1However, polarization is severe and cycling stability is poor; improved LiCo1-x(Ni0.5Mn0.5)xO2The series of the lithium-nickel mixed-arrangement systems has the advantages that the lithium-nickel mixed-arrangement degree is reduced along with the increase of the cobalt content, and the electrochemical performance can be improved. But unfortunately this is still well below its theoretical capacity (274 mAh/g).
