Therefore, much attention has been paid to rechargeable lithium ion batteries used in electric and electric hybrid vehicles. In lithium ion batteries, the positive electrode material plays a crucial role. At present, nickel-rich lithium transition metal oxides are considered as the most promising candidate materials because they can increase the specific capacity of lithium ion batteries by increasing the nickel content. However, the poor cycling stability and rate capability of the resulting lithium ion batteries may hinder the use of such materials.
Therefore, the existing quaternary positive electrode materials still need to be studied intensively.

Detailed Description
The following describes embodiments of the present invention in detail. The following examples are illustrative only and are not to be construed as limiting the invention. The examples, where specific techniques or conditions are not indicated, are to be construed according to the techniques or conditions described in the literature in the art or according to the product specifications. The reagents or instruments used are not indicated by the manufacturer, and are all conventional products commercially available.
Furthermore, the terms "first", "second" and "first" are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one such feature. In the description of the present invention, "a plurality" means at least two, e.g., two, three, etc., unless specifically limited otherwise.
In one aspect of the invention, a modified quaternary positive electrode material for a lithium battery is provided. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the modified quaternary positive electrode material includes: a quaternary positive electrode material core; a first cladding layer comprising Li2O-2B2O3The first coating layer is formed on at least part of the surface of the quaternary positive electrode material core; a second coating layer containing an oxide and/or hydroxide of M, M being at least one of Mg, Al, Zr, Ti, Fe, formed on at least a part of a surface of the first coating layer.
In research, the inventor finds that LBO is a conductor with good lithium ion conductivity, has good wetting property and relatively low viscosity, is easy to form a uniform coating on the surface of the quaternary positive electrode material core and coat the quaternary positive electrode material core body, and improves the process of lithium ion extraction and insertion in the positive electrode material. In a high-voltage lithium ion battery, excessive lithium ion extraction may improve the charging specific capacity of the battery, but the internal collapse of the material or the mixed discharge of lithium ions and nickel ions is likely to occur, which may cause adverse effects on the first-effect performance and long-cycle performance of the battery. According to the modified quaternary positive electrode material provided by the invention, the second coating layer containing metal oxide and/or hydroxide is further formed outside the LBO first coating layer, and the second coating layer can play a better supporting role because the positive electrode material coated by the M element is stable under a high oxidation potential. Under the high-voltage charging state, a large amount of lithium ions are intercalated, M can effectively maintain the stability of a lattice structure in the form of ions, the transformation from a layered structure to a spinel structure and the mixed discharge of lithium ions/nickel ions are inhibited, and more reversible lithium sites are reserved, so that the reversible discharge capacity of the material is improved, and the first-effect performance of the battery is improved. In addition, the bonding force among M(s) -O (p) bonds in the material is far greater than that of Ni-O bonds, Co-O bonds or Mn-O bonds, so that the coating of the M element can effectively inhibit the positive electrode material from seriously releasing oxygen, unstable lattice structure, easy structural collapse and phase change and the like under high cut-off voltage, thereby improving the high-current charge and discharge performance and long-cycle stability of the battery. In conclusion, the modified quaternary positive electrode material provided by the invention has excellent capacity, first effect and cycle performance.
The modified quaternary positive electrode material according to an embodiment of the present invention is further described in detail below.
According to some embodiments of the present invention, the quaternary positive electrode material core may be a nickel-cobalt-manganese-aluminum quaternary positive electrode material (NCMA material) commonly used in the art. The technical scheme of the invention can obviously improve the capacity, the first effect and the cycle performance of the NCMA material by carrying out dry-wet secondary coating modification on the existing NCMA material. In some embodiments, the quaternary positive electrode material core has a composition as shown in formula (I),
LiNixCoyMnzAl(1-x-y-z)O2 (I)
in the formula (I), x is more than or equal to 0.8 and less than or equal to 1, y is more than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 0.1, and z is more than or equal to 0 and less than or equal to 0.1.
According to some embodiments of the present invention, the mass of the first coating layer accounts for 0.0005 to 1% of the total mass of the modified quaternary positive electrode material, for example, 0.0005%, 0.001%, 0.005%, 0.01%, 0.05%, 0.1%, 0.5%, 1%, and the like. By controlling the quality of the first coating layer within the range, the LBO content in the modified quaternary positive electrode material is proper, and the overall lithium removal/insertion performance of the modified quaternary positive electrode material can be further improved. If the content of LBO in the modified quaternary positive electrode material is too high, the coating layer is too thick, the conductivity of the material is poor, and lithium ions are difficult to be extracted and inserted, so that the electrochemical performance of the material is influenced.
According to some embodiments of the present invention, the mass of the second coating layer accounts for 0.0005 to 1% of the total mass of the modified quaternary positive electrode material, for example, 0.0005%, 0.001%, 0.005%, 0.01%, 0.05%, 0.1%, 0.5%, 1%, and the like. By controlling the quality of the second coating layer within the range, the content of M oxide or M hydroxide in the modified quaternary positive electrode material is appropriate, and the overall stability of the modified quaternary positive electrode material can be further improved. If the content of the M oxide or the M hydroxide in the modified quaternary positive electrode material is too high, the coating layer is too thick or the coating is not uniform, the conductivity of the material is poor, and lithium ions are difficult to be extracted and inserted, so that the electrochemical performance of the material is affected.
In another aspect of the present invention, the present invention provides a method of preparing the modified quaternary positive electrode material of the above embodiment. According to an embodiment of the invention, the method comprises: (1) mixing a lithium source, a boron source and a solvent to obtain a coating solution; (2) mixing the coating solution with a quaternary anode material precursor to obtain a first mixed material; (3) carrying out first calcination treatment on the first mixed material to obtain a first product; (4) mixing the first product with an M source to obtain a second mixed material; (5) and carrying out second calcination treatment on the second mixed material to obtain the modified quaternary anode material. Therefore, the method forms the first coating layer through wet coating and forms the second coating layer through dry coating, so that the high-performance modified quaternary positive electrode material is prepared, and the method is simple to operate, short in period and easy to implement industrially.
The method for preparing the modified quaternary positive electrode material according to the embodiment of the present invention is further described in detail below. Referring to fig. 1, according to an embodiment of the invention, the method comprises:
s100: obtaining a coating solution
In this step, a lithium source, a boron source, and a solvent are mixed to obtain a coating liquid. Specifically, after mixing the lithium source, the boron source and the solvent, strong stirring can be assisted to ensure that the mixture is straightUntil the components are completely dissolved, wherein the lithium source and the boron source are mixed according to the molar ratio of the lithium element to the boron element of 1:2 so as to obtain Li2O-2B2O3Conductive glass. The specific kind of the solvent is not particularly limited as long as the lithium source and the boron source can be well dispersed, and in some embodiments of the present invention, ethanol is used as the solvent.
According to some embodiments of the present invention, the lithium source may include at least one selected from the group consisting of lithium nitrate, lithium carbonate, and lithium hydroxide monohydrate, preferably lithium hydroxide monohydrate.
According to some embodiments of the present invention, the boron source may comprise at least one selected from boric acid, boron oxide, preferably boric acid.
S200: wet coating
In the step, the coating solution is mixed with a quaternary anode material precursor to obtain a first mixed material. According to some embodiments of the present invention, the mixing ratio of the coating solution and the quaternary positive electrode material precursor may be: the ratio of the molar quantity of the lithium element in the coating liquid to the total molar quantity of the metal elements in the quaternary anode material precursor is 1 (1.01-1.03), and preferably 1: 1.025.
S300: first calcination treatment
In this step, the first mixed material is subjected to a first calcination treatment in an oxidizing atmosphere (e.g., an oxygen atmosphere) to obtain a quaternary positive electrode material core and a stable LBO coating layer.
According to some embodiments of the present invention, the first calcination treatment may be performed at 600 to 1050 ℃ for 5 to 15 hours. Specifically, the calcination temperature may be 600 ℃, 700 ℃, 800 ℃, 900 ℃, 1050 ℃ and the like, and the calcination time may be 5 hours, 7.5 hours, 10 hours, 12.5 hours, 15 hours and the like. The inventor finds that if the temperature of the first calcination process is too low or the time is too short, the reaction may be incomplete, an amorphous material is easily generated, the crystallization performance of the material is not good, and the material is easy to contain impurity phases, and the electrochemical performance of the material is greatly influenced; if the temperature of the first calcination process is too high or the time is too long, oxygen-deficient compounds may be generated and secondary recrystallization may be promoted, and the material has large crystal grains and small specific surface area, which is not favorable for lithium ion extraction and intercalation in the material.
According to some embodiments of the present invention, the first mixed material may be previously subjected to a heat treatment to remove the solvent therefrom before the first calcination treatment is performed. In particular, the first batch may be heated slightly at a temperature slightly above the boiling point of the solvent used until the solvent in the batch is completely volatilized. According to some embodiments of the present invention, when ethanol is used as the solvent, the temperature of the heat treatment may be 60 ℃.
According to some embodiments of the present invention, after the first calcination treatment, the resulting first product may be cooled, pulverized and sieved. The target particle size for crushing the first product is not particularly limited and may be selected according to actual needs.
S400: dry coating
In this step, the first product is mixed with an M source to obtain a second mixture. Specifically, M may be at least one of Mg, Al, Zr, Ti, and Fe. The source of M may be an oxide and/or hydroxide of M.
S500: second calcination treatment
In this step, the second mixed material is subjected to a second calcination treatment in an oxidizing atmosphere (e.g., an oxygen atmosphere) to form a stable second coating layer outside the first coating layer, resulting in a modified quaternary positive electrode material.
According to some embodiments of the present invention, the second calcination treatment may be performed at 200 to 650 ℃ for 5 to 10 hours. Specifically, the calcination temperature may be 200 ℃, 300 ℃, 400 ℃, 500 ℃, 650 ℃ and the like, and the calcination time may be 5 hours, 6 hours, 7 hours, 8 hours, 10 hours and the like. The inventors found that if the temperature of the second calcination treatment is too low or the treatment time is too short, the coating on the surface of the positive electrode material may not be uniform, and if the temperature of the second calcination treatment is too high or the treatment time is too long, aluminum ions may enter the inside of the positive electrode material body and may not play a role in the required coating.
According to some embodiments of the present invention, after the second calcination treatment, the resulting modified quaternary positive-electrode material product may be cooled, pulverized, and sieved. The target particle size for crushing the modified quaternary positive electrode material product is not particularly limited and can be selected according to actual needs.
