Description

Carbon-coated lithium-containing transition metal phosphate cathode material and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of lithium ion batteries, and particularly relates to a carbon-coated lithium-containing transition metal phosphate positive electrode material and a preparation method thereof.
Background
The lithium ion battery has the advantages of high energy density, long cycle life, no memory effect, low self-discharge rate and the like, and gradually occupies a leading position in the aspects of energy storage and supply. Lithium ion batteries are composed primarily of positive electrodes, negative electrodes, separators, electrolytes, and other accessories, where the positive active material plays a crucial role in the overall performance of the battery. Currently, lithium cobaltate (LiCoO) is the main material of the positive electrode of the commercial lithium ion battery 2 ) Ternary material, spinel LiMn 2 O 4 And olivine-structured lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO) 4 ) And the like.
LiFePO 4 The lithium ion battery anode material is a new generation lithium ion battery anode material proposed by professor Goodenough in 1997, and has the advantages of proper discharge voltage (3.5V), high theoretical specific capacity (170mAh/g), good thermal stability and electrochemical stability, compatibility with most electrolytes, rich raw material sources, environmental friendliness and the like. But do notIs used as the anode material of the lithium ion battery, LiFePO 4 Has very significant disadvantages of electron conductivity and Li at room temperature + The mobilities therein were all low, 10 respectively -9 S/cm and 10 -14 ～10 -11 cm 2 S, this is still a constraint on LiFePO 4 The biggest application problem.
In the prior art, the intrinsic electronic conductivity and ionic conductivity of the material are improved to a certain extent by adopting a carbon-coated technical means, and carbon coating is generally carried out on LiFePO 4 During the generation process, a layer of thin carbon material is coated on the surface in situ, and LiFePO is also prepared firstly 4 The material is then carbon coated. No matter what method is adopted for coating carbon, the LiFePO is adopted 4 And carbon are two very different species, the crystal lattices are severely mismatched, and the interface connection is not tight enough. Although LiFePO 4 The material has small volume change in the charging and discharging process, and has no obvious problem in short-term circulation, but the problems of falling off of the coating material, deterioration of conductivity and decline of material performance are easy to occur in the long-term circulation process.
Lithium-containing transition metal phosphates having the same structure as lithium iron phosphate also have problems encountered with lithium iron phosphate.
Disclosure of Invention
One of the objects of the present invention is: aiming at the defects of the prior art, the carbon-coated lithium-containing transition metal phosphate anode material is provided, and the problems of falling off of a coating material, poor conductivity, material performance degradation and the like in the circulating process can be solved.
In order to achieve the purpose, the invention adopts the following technical scheme:
a carbon-coated lithium-containing transition metal phosphate positive electrode material comprises a lithium-containing transition metal phosphate positive electrode material and a carbon coating layer coated on the surface of the lithium-containing transition metal phosphate positive electrode material, wherein selenium is doped in the carbon coating layer, and the structural formula of the lithium-containing transition metal phosphate positive electrode material is LiMPO 4 And M is at least one of Fe, Mn, Co and Ni. It should be noted that lithium iron phosphate, lithium cobalt phosphate, lithium manganese phosphate, and lithium nickel phosphate are all olivineThe structure, and Fe, Co, Mn, and Ni may form a mutual solid solution. Selenium and oxygen are elements of the same group and can replace the oxygen position, but since the atomic radius of selenium is much larger than that of oxygen, the selenium is mainly present in LiMPO 4 And forms a chemical bond with M and P, and selenium and carbon can also form a relatively strong chemical bond, which is the carbon coating and LiMPO 4 A firmer connection is established between the two.
As an improvement of the carbon-coated lithium-containing transition metal phosphate cathode material, the source of the selenium element comprises at least one of selenium oxide, elemental selenium and selenium-containing organic matters. Preferably, selenium-containing organic materials are used as the selenium source, so that the selenium is generated in situ, is uniformly distributed and has good combination with carbon. The selenium-containing organic substance preferably contains only C, N, H, O, Se, and more preferably contains only C, H, O, Se.
As an improvement of the carbon-coated lithium-containing transition metal phosphate positive electrode material, the selenium-containing organic matter comprises at least one of selenol, dimethyl selenium, benzoselenol, polyselenol, 2, 5-dicarboxyl selenol, selenium ether and tetramethyl tetraseleno fulvalene.
As an improvement of the carbon-coated lithium-containing transition metal phosphate positive electrode material, the mass of the selenium element accounts for 0.01-40% of the total mass of the carbon coating layer, and the mass of the carbon coating layer accounts for 0.2-8% of the total mass of the positive electrode material. The carbon coating layer occupies too large mass of the anode material, so that the formed carbon coating layer is too thick, the lithium ion is not easy to be de-embedded, and the mass specific capacity of the material is reduced; the carbon coating layer occupies too small mass of the cathode material, and the formed carbon coating layer is not continuous and complete enough. The selenium content is too small to show the coating effect; the selenium element accounts for too much, on one hand, the selenium element can replace too many oxygen atoms to influence the overall structural stability of the anode material, and on the other hand, the material cost can be greatly increased.
As an improvement of the carbon-coated lithium-containing transition metal phosphate positive electrode material, the mass of the selenium element accounts for 0.7-10% of the total mass of the carbon coating layer, and the mass of the carbon coating layer accounts for 0.5-5% of the total mass of the positive electrode material.
As an improvement of the carbon-coated lithium-containing transition metal phosphate cathode material of the present invention, the content of the selenium element gradually decreases from the position close to the lithium-containing transition metal phosphate cathode material to the position far from the lithium-containing transition metal phosphate cathode material. The carbon coating layer coated on the surface of the lithium-containing transition metal phosphate cathode material can be continuous or discontinuous, and the distribution of the selenium element in the carbon coating layer can be uniform or non-uniform. Preferably, the carbon coating layer coated on the surface of the lithium-containing transition metal phosphate cathode material is continuous, and selenium in the carbon coating layer is uniformly distributed along the surface of the cathode material particles. More preferably, the content of the selenium element gradually decreases from the position close to the lithium-containing transition metal phosphate cathode material to the position far away from the lithium-containing transition metal phosphate cathode material, and a gradient distribution of selenium is formed. Since selenium is mostly present in LiMPO 4 The surface layer of the lithium-containing transition metal phosphate anode material forms a chemical bond with M and P, a relatively strong chemical bond can be formed between selenium and carbon, and the higher the selenium content close to the lithium-containing transition metal phosphate anode material is, the firmer the selenium carbon bond is, so that the firmer the connection between the carbon coating layer and the lithium-containing transition metal phosphate anode material is.
As an improvement of the carbon-coated lithium-containing transition metal phosphate positive electrode material, the average particle size of the primary particles of the lithium-containing transition metal phosphate positive electrode material is 20-300 nm, the particle size D50 of the secondary particles of the lithium-containing transition metal phosphate positive electrode material is 1-10 mu m, and D100 is smaller than 30 mu m. Preferably, the average particle size of the lithium-containing transition metal phosphate positive electrode material primary particles is 50-200 nm, the particle size of the lithium-containing transition metal phosphate positive electrode material secondary particles D50 is 1-7 μm, and D100 is less than 20 um. The lithium-containing transition metal phosphate anode material has too large particles, which can cause too long diffusion path of lithium ions and influence the dynamic performance of the material; and if the particles of the lithium-containing transition metal phosphate cathode material are too small, the compaction density of the material is too low, and the volume energy density of the material is influenced.
In the lithium-containing transition metal phosphate positive electrode material, the M-site doping element is at least one of Cr, V, Nb, Mo, Zr, W, Y, Sc, Ru, Rh, Pd, Cu and Zn, the Li-site doping element is at least one of Na, K, Mg, Ni and Sc, and the P-site doping element is at least one of S, Se, Si, Mo and Ge. Preferably, the M-site doping element is at least one of Cr, V, Nb, Mo, Zr, and W, the Li-site doping element is at least one of Na, K, Mg, Ni, and Sc, and the P-site doping element is at least one of S, Se and Si. Further preferably, the M-site doping element is at least one of Nb, Mo, Zr, and W, the Li-site doping element is at least one of Na, K, and Mg, and the P-site doping element is at least one of S, Se and Si. The preferred doping element needs to form a stable chemical bond with selenium element, so that a firmer connection between the carbon coating layer and the lithium-containing transition metal phosphate anode material is obtained.

By the multi-step coating method, the content of selenium element can be gradually reduced from the position close to the lithium-containing transition metal phosphate cathode material to the position far away from the lithium-containing transition metal phosphate cathode material. Wherein the carbon source mainly comprises an organic carbon source, and preferably cheap glucose, sucrose and the like. In steps S2 and S3, the carbonization temperature is 400-800 ℃, and the carbonization time is 1-8 h. The carbonization temperature is too high or too low, or the carbonization time is too long or too short, which is not favorable for the performance of the selenium-doped carbon-coated lithium transition metal phosphate anode material, the material particles are easy to obviously grow up and the dynamic performance of the material is influenced due to the too high temperature or too long time, and the carbonization is incomplete due to the too low temperature or too short time, which influences the first coulomb efficiency of the material on one hand and influences the selenium-carbon coating effect on the other hand. The preferable carbonization temperature is 500-650 ℃, and the preferable carbonization time is 1-3 h.
It should be noted that the carbon-coated lithium-containing transition metal phosphate positive electrode material can be obtained by performing only step S1, which is called a one-step synthesis method.

It can be seen from the examples and the comparative examples corresponding thereto that, compared with the common carbon-coated material, the lithium-containing transition metal phosphate cathode material with the selenium-doped carbon coating layer of the present invention has a higher powder compaction density, and the lithium ion battery manufactured by using the lithium-containing transition metal phosphate with the selenium-doped carbon coating layer of the present invention as the cathode material has a higher specific capacity, a better rate capability and a long cycle capability.
As can be seen from examples 1 to 2 and examples 5 to 6, the selenium-containing organic substance has a better effect than selenium oxide or elemental selenium as a selenium source. The selenium oxide and the elemental selenium are usually granular, solid-phase mixing is difficult to disperse uniformly, and some organic selenium is liquid, and some organic selenium can be dissolved or dispersed into a liquid-phase solvent together with an organic carbon source to form a solution or suspension, so that uniform dispersion is easier to realize. In addition, the organic selenium contains a large amount of carbon besides selenium, so that selenium and carbon can be simultaneously provided in situ, and a stable carbon-selenium bond is more easily formed.
It can be seen from examples 7 to 8 and examples 3 and 9 that, under the condition of the same carbon coating amount and the same selenium content, the selenium content gradient material obtained by the multi-step coating method has higher powder compaction density compared with the selenium content uniform material obtained by the one-step synthesis method and the two-step coating method, and the lithium ion battery has higher specific capacity, better rate capability and long cycle performance. The reason is that the selenium in the selenium content gradient type material is more positioned at the interface of the transition metal phosphate material and the selenium carbon coating layer, so that the function of interface connection can be better enhanced.
In conclusion, the carbon coating layer doped with the selenium element can better play a role in conducting electricity, so that the multiplying power performance of the material is improved; the strong acting force between the selenium-doped carbon coating layer and the main body material enables the material to still keep the carbon material in good contact with the main body material under long circulation, and the cyclicity is improved; the selenium-doped carbon coating layer and the main body material are tightly combined, the compacted density is higher under the condition of the same carbon content, and the compacted density of the material is increased; selenium in LiMPO 4 The surface layer of the material can also reduce the surface potential energy of the material, and is more favorable for the entering and exiting of lithium ions, so that the effect of improving the multiplying power performance of the material is also achieved.
