Description

Lithium cobaltate cathode material with high structural stability and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium ion batteries, and particularly relates to a high-structure-stability lithium cobaltate positive electrode material and a preparation method thereof.
Background
Lithium ion batteries have become a research hotspot in the fields of portable electronic products, electric tools and electric automobiles due to the advantages of high energy density, high volume density, no memory effect, long service life and the like. In particular to a lithium ion battery which takes lithium cobaltate as the most mainstream anode material, and is a lithium ion battery system which is most widely applied in portable electronic products. This is because lithium cobaltate positive electrode material has high operating voltage (>3.9V), high tap density, high volumetric energy density, high mass energy density and long cycle life, making it an irreplaceable place in high-end portable electronic products. However, with the development of the portable electronic products, the power consumption of the lithium ion battery is greatly increased, which results in that the energy density of the existing cobalt acid lithium battery is difficult to meet the requirement of the electronic products for long standby time. Therefore, development of lithium cobaltate cathode materials with higher energy density becomes a hotspot of development of lithium ion batteries.
Lithium cobaltate has a typical alpha-NaFeO2Structure, hexagonal system, belongs to
Figure BDA0002118864970000011
And (4) space group. Wherein the oxygen ions at the 6c position are in cubic close-packed, the lithium ions at the 3a position and the cobalt ions at the 3b position occupy octahedral voids of the oxygen ions, respectively, and are in a layered arrangement in the (111) crystal plane (as shown in fig. 1). In recent years, the solution to improve the energy density of lithium cobaltate positive electrode materials is to improve the specific discharge capacity by improving the charge cut-off voltage. However, increasing the charge cut-off voltage significantly increases the specific capacity of lithium cobaltate, and also causes structural damage to lithium cobaltate, reducing the cycle life of the battery. This is because, at high cut-off voltage operation, the lithium cobaltate layered structure changes as follows: (1) in the lithium layer, Li-O bonds are broken, so that lithium ions at the position 3a are extracted from crystal lattices, and O ions originally bonded with Li at the position 6c are mutually far away along the c-axis direction of the layered structure due to Coulomb repulsion force; (2) the oxidation state of cobalt ions at the 3b position of the cobalt layer is greatly increased, resulting in a significant shortening of the Co-O bond length, resulting in a shortening of O ions at the 6c position along the c-axis of the layered structure. In general, the degree of remoteness of O ions along the c-axis direction of the layered structure is much greater than the degree of shrinkage. (3) Oxygen evolution occurs during the oxidation of O ions, so that O vacancies occur in the lithium cobaltate layered structure, the number of O in a Co-O coordination polyhedron is reduced, and Co ions are dissolved out of the lithium cobaltate layered structure. Therefore, the resultant force of the lithium layer and the cobalt layer to O ions causes irreversible slippage or distortion of the arrangement of O ions, destroying the cobaltStructural stability of lithium oxide. When discharged, the extracted lithium ions cannot be inserted back into the crystal lattice of lithium cobaltate, thereby reducing the battery life. Furthermore, Co elution and oxygen evolution due to oxidation of O ions reduce battery safety. In order to solve the above problems, many experts or scholars have done a lot of work on how to improve the structural stability of the lithium cobaltate positive electrode material, wherein element doping on different ion sites of lithium cobaltate is one of the main solutions for improving the structural stability of lithium cobaltate. However, in the transition metal layer of the crystal structure of the doped lithium cobaltate, only the chemical bond between the transition metal and the anion (such as oxygen) exists, and the chemical bond between the transition metal and the anion (such as oxygen) changes with the desorption of lithium ions during the charging process, which still causes irreversible slippage and distortion of the oxygen atom layer, and destroys the structural stability of the lithium cobaltate. Chinese scientists report a high specific capacity lithium molybdate anode material Li2MoO3(chem. mater.,2014,26,3256-3262.) indicating the presence of Mo-Mo metal bonds in the transition metal layer of the lattice structure of the lithium molybdate material, wherein these Mo-Mo metal bonds have Mo in the transition metal layer3O13And (4) cluster structure. The Mo-Mo metal bonds can be reversibly broken and formed in the charge and discharge processes without oxygen evolution, and Mo ions can be reversibly transferred between the transition metal layer and lithium ion vacancies of the lithium layer, so that the lithium molybdate material has excellent structural stability, reversibility and safety, and is a high-energy-density lithium ion battery cathode material with great development potential. However, due to Li2MoO3Discharge cut-off voltage (2.0V) and discharge average voltage (C:)<3.5V) is low, and the requirement of consumer electronics products, particularly mobile phones, on the high working voltage of lithium batteries cannot be met.
