Description

Doped cobaltosic oxide and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of lithium ion battery materials, and particularly relates to doped cobaltosic oxide and a preparation method thereof.
Background
With the iterative upgrade of products in the digital field and the rapid development of emerging electronic products such as various high-end models, unmanned planes and the like, the requirements on the light weight and the battery capacity of the lithium battery are higher and higher. The lithium cobaltate positive electrode material has an important application direction in the digital field, and along with the increasingly strict performance requirements of electronic products on lithium batteries, the update iteration of the lithium cobaltate positive electrode material is particularly important. The performance of the lithium cobaltate positive electrode material depends on the performance of a precursor to a great extent, and in order to prepare a high-energy-density positive electrode material, on one hand, a voltage platform of the positive electrode material is improved through a doping technology, and on the other hand, the compaction density of the positive electrode material is improved through a large and small particle matching technology. The lithium cobaltate positive electrode material is mainly prepared by calcining cobaltosic oxide and lithium carbonate at a certain temperature, with the intensive research on doping technology and particle matching technology, the technical modification of the lithium cobaltate positive electrode material is gradually changed from sintering modification research to cobaltosic oxide precursor synthesis technology and performance research, so that the deepening of the cobaltosic oxide research has important significance on the improvement of the performance of the lithium cobaltate.
The preparation method of cobaltosic oxide comprises spray pyrolysis, liquid phase precipitation-thermal decomposition and the like, wherein the cobaltosic oxide prepared by the liquid phase precipitation-thermal decomposition method mainly adopts an intermittent process to firstly synthesize cobalt carbonate, and then prepare the porous cobaltosic oxide by thermal decomposition, such as the preparation method of compact crystal type small-particle-size spherical cobalt carbonate mentioned in Chinese patent CN2020100308075 and the preparation method of cobaltosic oxide mentioned in Chinese patent CN106882843A, the prepared cobalt carbonate has relative large particle size, and secondary particles are not easy to sinter into single crystals. The existing preparation technology of single crystal cobaltosic oxide is generally prepared by a spray pyrolysis method, the single crystal cobaltosic oxide is mainly obtained by pyrolyzing a cobalt chloride solution by the spray pyrolysis method, but the method can cause a large amount of hydrogen chloride gas to be generated, the tail gas treatment is strict, and the spray pyrolysis method cannot be applied to the preparation of doped single crystal cobaltosic oxide.
At present, most of lithium cobaltate anode materials are prepared from small polycrystalline particle cobaltosic oxide of conventional secondary spherical particles, but the small polycrystalline particle raw materials have high pores, and because the particle size is small, cobalt and doping elements are easy to form a phase separation state in a sintering process, so that the distribution of the doping elements is uneven, and the anode materials prepared by utilizing polycrystalline aggregates have the phenomena of low compaction density, serious gas generation of batteries and the like.

As a general inventive concept, the present invention also provides a method for preparing the doped cobaltosic oxide, comprising the following steps:
(1) preparing a soluble mixed salt solution and an ammonium bicarbonate solution according to a stoichiometric ratio, wherein the soluble mixed salt solution refers to a mixed solution of soluble cobalt salt and soluble salt containing doping elements;
(2) adding pure water into the reaction kettle as a base solution, and adjusting the pH value of the base solution to 7.1 +/-0.05;
(3) adding a soluble mixed salt solution and an ammonium bicarbonate solution into a reaction kettle simultaneously for reaction by adopting a parallel-flow liquid adding mode, and controlling the pH value of a reaction system to be 7.1 +/-0.05 in the reaction process;

(5) and (4) washing, drying, sieving and calcining the material obtained after the reaction in the step (4) to obtain the doped cobaltosic oxide.
The preparation process accelerates the growth rate of the particles by controlling the lower and constant pH value, and can effectively promote the dispersion of the particles and prevent agglomeration by controlling the high rotating speed under the relatively higher growth rate, so that the co-precipitation effect of the doping elements is more uniform. While the prior art usually adopts a relatively high pH value, which aims to control a low growth rate and prevent agglomeration, the applicant finds through research that the growth rate is too slow, which is not beneficial to realizing uniform doping of aluminum, and in the coprecipitation process, the change of the pH value will also destroy the uniformity of element doping; therefore, the pH value is controlled to be very low and constant, and meanwhile, the combination of high rotating speed, low temperature and lower pH value is adopted, namely, the problem that particles are easy to agglomerate in the growth process is solved by utilizing the high rotating speed, the proper nucleation speed is provided by utilizing the lower temperature control, and the small-particle doped single crystal or quasi-single crystal cobaltosic oxide with better appearance and more uniform aluminum doping can be obtained on the premise that agglomeration does not occur in the coprecipitation reaction process.
In the preparation method, preferably, in the step (4), the solid content of the slurry is controlled to be 40-50%, and the target particle size of the slurry in the reaction kettle is 2-4 μm.
In the preparation method, preferably, in the step (3), the temperature in the reaction process is 40-50 ℃, and the stirring speed of the reaction kettle stirrer is 800-1000 rpm. Further preferably, the temperature in the reaction process is 40-45 ℃, and the rotating speed of the stirrer of the reaction kettle is 800-.
In the preparation method, preferably, in the step (1), the concentration of the soluble mixed salt solution is 100-140g/L, and the concentration of the ammonium bicarbonate is 200-240 g/L;
in the step (3), the flow rate of the soluble mixed salt solution introduced into the reaction kettle is 80-100 mL/min. Further preferably, the flow rate of the mixed salt solution is 85 + -5 ml/min.
Preferably, in the step (5), the washing means that the material is washed by hot pure water and ammonium bicarbonate solution alternately, the temperature of the hot water is 70-80 ℃, and the concentration of the ammonium bicarbonate solution is 80-120 g/L; the drying temperature is 100-120 ℃.
In the preparation method, preferably, in the step (5), the calcining refers to sintering at 350 ℃ for 2-3 hours at constant temperature, and then sintering at 900-950 ℃ for 3-9 hours; the calcination process is carried out in an air atmosphere, and the gas flow is 10-15L/h.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the advantages that:
(1) the doped cobaltosic oxide is in the shape of a single crystal or quasi-single crystal aggregate, has obviously higher compaction density compared with the conventional cobaltosic oxide in the shape of a secondary aggregate, and provides guarantee for synthesizing a lithium cobaltate anode material with high energy density.
(2) According to the preparation method, the growth rate of the particles is accelerated by controlling the lower and constant pH value, the dispersion of the particles can be effectively promoted by controlling the high rotating speed under the relatively higher growth rate, the agglomeration is prevented, the co-precipitation effect of the doping elements is more uniform, and the small-particle doped single crystal or quasi-single crystal cobaltosic oxide with better appearance and more uniform Al doping is obtained.
(3) According to the preparation method, the technological characteristics of high rotating speed and slurry recycling are adopted, so that the cobalt carbonate crystal nucleus generated in the wet synthesis technological process is finer, the cobaltosic oxide semi-finished product has smaller granularity, better morphology uniformity and more compact particles.
(4) According to the preparation method, cobalt and aluminum are better fused in the sintering process of the cobalt carbonate through sintering at a high temperature section, and the flaky segregation morphology is easier to form compared with the situation that the cobaltosic oxide doped with aluminum in the secondary spherical particles, but Al in the single crystal or quasi-single crystal cobaltosic oxide does not have segregation, and the Al-doped element is easier to be doped into the cobaltosic oxide crystal lattice by combining a coprecipitation process and a sintering technology.
