Description

Dynamic synthesis device and dynamic synthesis method for ternary materials of lithium ion battery
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of lithium ion batteries, in particular to a dynamic synthesis device and a dynamic synthesis method for ternary materials of a lithium ion battery.
Background
The lithium nickel cobalt manganese (or aluminum) ternary material has been widely applied to the fields of small lithium ion batteries for consumer electronics such as mobile phones and notebook computers, and large power batteries for electric bicycles and electric automobiles due to the advantages of high energy density, good cycle performance, low self-discharge rate and the like.
The performance of the ternary material plays a decisive role in the performance of the lithium ion battery, and the physicochemical performance and the electrochemical performance of the ternary material are not only related to the proportion of three elements of Ni-Co-Mn (or Al), but also closely related to the preparation process of the ternary material.
Currently, the industrialized ternary material is mainly prepared by taking a hydroxide precursor of nickel-cobalt-manganese (or aluminum) and lithium carbonate or lithium hydroxide monohydrate as raw materials, calcining the raw materials in a roller kiln or a pushed slab kiln, and loading the raw materials in a sagger in a static state by static sintering.
The method for synthesizing the ternary material has simple process and is suitable for large-scale production, but has obvious defects:
(1) lithium among material particles is unevenly distributed
When the Ni content is less than 0.5, lithium carbonate is generally used as a lithium source, and a hydroxide of nickel, cobalt and manganese (or aluminum) is used as a precursor for synthesis. The loss on ignition during calcination is 25-27%, of which about 14% is discharged in the form of water. When the Ni content is more than 0.6, lithium hydroxide monohydrate is generally adopted as a lithium source, and hydroxide of nickel, cobalt and manganese (or aluminum) is adopted as a precursor for synthesis. The loss on ignition during calcination is 29-31%, and the lost material is mainly discharged in the form of water. In the roasting process, lithium moves upwards from the bottom of the saggar along with the evaporation of water, so that the lithium content of the bottom material is low, the lithium content of the upper material is high, and the lithium distribution among material particles is uneven.
(2) Low heat efficiency and high energy consumption
When the traditional roller kiln or pushed slab kiln is used for calcining, the material heating mode is radiation heating, the heat transfer efficiency is low, and therefore, longer roasting time is needed; in addition, the saggar can absorb partial heat during roasting, and heat loss is caused due to heat dissipation of two ends of the kiln due to poor sealing performance. Therefore, the traditional roller kiln or pushed slab kiln has low thermal efficiency and high energy consumption.
(3) The sagger has large consumption, increases the production cost and pollutes the environment
The sagger can be damaged in the repeated heating and cooling process and needs to be replaced frequently, so that the production cost is increased, a lot of solid wastes are generated, and the environment is polluted.
(4) High oxygen consumption and low production efficiency
When the ternary material is prepared, oxygen is needed to participate to complete the sintering reaction. When utilizing traditional roller kilns or pushed slab kiln to sinter the material, the material on sagger top layer can fully contact with oxygen, but the oxygen that the bottom material contacted is just more limited, consequently has great restriction to the sagger thickness of feeding, and the charge is less, and production efficiency is low.
In order to overcome the problems, CN1710735A adopts a rotary furnace to carry out roasting synthesis on the anode material, although the use amount of saggars is saved by the technology, the roasting time is still 20-40 hours, the difference from the traditional static roasting process is smaller, and the production efficiency is still lower; in addition, the furnace tube is not internally provided with a material raising plate, and the rotating speed is only 2-5r/min, so the secondary mixing effect of the materials is poor. In addition, CN208567497U has improved the internal structure of the converter tube, has added the spiral stock guide, and the pottery inlayer is formed integrally with spiral stock guide, but this equipment still has following shortcoming: (1) the structure has complex manufacturing process, poor thermal shock resistance and short service life, and can hardly be maintained if damaged; (2) the gas flow direction is consistent with the material flow direction, so that a large amount of water which is removed when the ternary material is sintered can be condensed at the discharge end, the water content of the finished material is increased, and the performance of the material is reduced.
