Description

Narrowly distributed large-particle-size nickel-cobalt-aluminum hydroxide and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium ion battery anode material precursors, and particularly relates to a narrowly-distributed large-particle-size nickel-cobalt-aluminum hydroxide and a preparation method thereof.
Background
The nickel-cobalt-aluminum ternary positive electrode material (NCA, namely, nickel-cobalt-lithium aluminate) has high energy density and good rate performance, and is widely applied to the fields of electric tools, electric automobiles and the like.
At present, the preparation methods of nickel-cobalt-aluminum materials mainly comprise solid-phase synthesis and liquid-phase synthesis. Solid phase synthesis generally adopts coprecipitation to prepare a nickel-cobalt precursor, and then the nickel-cobalt precursor is mixed with an aluminum compound and a lithium source compound and then sintered, but the solid mixing mode cannot achieve atom-level uniformity, and the performance is difficult to fully exert.
Chinese patent CN108767256a discloses a method for preparing a nickel cobalt lithium aluminate precursor as a battery cathode material, wherein the nickel cobalt lithium aluminate precursor is prepared by roasting with aluminum nitrate, so that the situation that large particle precipitates are difficult to form due to high precipitation speed of trivalent aluminum ions is avoided, and the nickel cobalt lithium aluminate precursor obtained by roasting has higher tap density; meanwhile, acid radical residue in the precipitate is reduced through roasting, and the purity of the prepared nickel-cobalt lithium aluminate precursor is further increased. The preparation method is the solid phase method, the mixing mode cannot achieve atom level uniformity, and the effect is not ideal.
The liquid phase synthesis method is that firstly, a nickel-cobalt-aluminum precursor is prepared by adopting a chemical coprecipitation method, and then the precursor and lithium salt are calcined to obtain an NCA material; the solubility product constant of aluminum hydroxide is 1.3 multiplied by 10 -33 And nickel hydroxide and cobalt hydroxide (divalent) are each 2X 10 -15 And 1.6X 10 -15 The solubility product constant of the aluminum hydroxide is far less than that of the nickel hydroxide and the cobalt hydroxide, and the aluminum ions are difficult to perform complex reaction with ammonia water, so when a nickel-cobalt-aluminum precursor is prepared by adopting a conventional chemical coprecipitation method, the precipitation speed of trivalent aluminum ions is extremely high, a flocculent product is easily formed, the trivalent aluminum ions are difficult to form a uniform single layered structure with nickel and cobalt precipitates, and a spherical large-particle precipitate is difficult to form, so that the performance index of an NCA material prepared by calcining the precursor doped with lithium salt is not ideal, the particles are loose, the structural stability is poor, and the discharge capacity is low.
With the continuous improvement of the requirement of the new energy field on the energy density of the cathode material, the mole percentage of Ni in the nickel-cobalt-aluminum cathode material is gradually increased from 80% to 88% or more, however, the improvement of the Ni content makes the cycle performance of the cathode material a short plate restricting the application of the cathode material, and in order to improve the cycle performance of the nickel-cobalt-aluminum cathode material, the consistency of the cathode material can be improved by preparing a narrowly distributed nickel-cobalt-aluminum precursor with uniform particle size and good sphericity.
Meanwhile, with the increase of D50, in the sintering process of the cathode material, since the diffusion path of the lithium source from the outside to the inside of the precursor becomes long, it becomes difficult to achieve rapid and uniform distribution of the lithium source in the precursor, and although this problem can be solved by prolonging the sintering time or by adopting a multi-sintering method, there are multiple problems of reduced production efficiency, high production cost, and the like.
