Description

Preparation method of high-compaction-density and high-safety graded high-nickel single crystal ternary material
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of lithium ion batteries, and particularly relates to a preparation method of a high-compaction-density and high-safety graded high-nickel single crystal ternary material.
Background
In recent years, the market of new energy automobiles in China is rapidly developed, and the continuously improved endurance mileage also puts higher and higher requirements on the energy density of power batteries.
The core of improving the energy density of the power battery lies in the development of a high-capacity anode material, the material with the highest capacity at present is a high-nickel ternary material, and the content of cobalt is reduced by increasing the content of nickel, so that the specific capacity of the material is improved. However, if the Ni content is too high, the service life and safety performance are reduced accordingly. Therefore, how to further increase the capacity of the positive electrode material without increasing the Ni content has been the focus of research.
Currently, increasing the charging voltage is one of the main approaches to increase the capacity of the cathode material. The theoretical specific capacity of the NCM622 or the NCM811 is about 274mAh/g, and the aim of increasing the capacity of the material can be achieved by increasing the charging voltage under the condition of not changing the Ni content of the material, for example, the capacity of the NCM622 at 4.3V is about 180mAh/g, but the capacity can reach 201mAh/g if the NCM622 or the NCM811 is charged to 4.5V.
The synthesis of the single crystal ternary material is one of effective methods for improving the discharge voltage, but the compaction density of the single crystal material is low, so that the practical use of the single crystal material is influenced. Therefore, there is a need to increase the packing density of single crystal materials. The improvement of the compaction density can be realized by methods such as the selection of the precursor, the adjustment of the sintering temperature, the matching of the large and small particles and the like.
Single crystal materials with blended large and small particles have been reported. Chinese patent CN104724763A adopts precursor lithium mixed salt with different particle sizes to directly synthesize large single crystal particles at the temperature higher than 900 ℃, then selects precursor lithium mixed with proper particle size to sinter into small single crystal particles, and then mixes and collocates to prepare the high compaction single crystal ternary material. Chinese patent CN109516509A also mixes small-particle single crystal ternary oxide, large-particle single crystal ternary oxide and lithium salt according to a preset proportion, then sinters and cools to obtain high-compaction single crystal ternary anode material, and CN110010889A adds a coating layer on the basis of size mixing.
However, in the prior art, a simple physical mixing grading method is adopted, and small particles are used for filling up the pores of large particles to obtain a high-compaction material. In the practical application process, after a period of operation, the electrolyte can gradually permeate into gaps of large and small particles, lithium dendrite is generated in situ, the large and small particles are separated, and the problem of powder breakage and the like is caused.

That is, compared with example 2, in-situ polymerization of a polymer was not performed.
Experimental conditions
FIGS. 1 and 2 are SEM images of materials prepared in example 1 and comparative example 1, and it can be seen from FIG. 1 that the material prepared in example 1 is D50The grain size was about 4.6 μm. The morphology of the material prepared in comparative example 1 was clearly less uniform than that of comparative example 1.
The finished product materials prepared in the above embodiments and comparative examples are used as the anode material of the lithium ion battery to assemble the CR2032 button battery, and the first discharge specific capacity of the button battery is tested by adopting a Land battery test system under the charge-discharge conditions of 0.2C and 25 ℃ within the voltage range of 2.5V-4.25V.
The test results are: the specific discharge capacity of 200.3mAh/g in the example 1 is tested by a pressure measuring powder densitometer, and the compaction density of the positive pole piece in the middle of the comparative example 1 is 3.65g/cm3And the compacted density is the area surface degree/(the density of the rolled pole piece-the thickness of the current collector). The test instrument is not changed, the material in the example 1 is made into a button cell, and the capacity retention rate of the button cell is tested to be 96.2% under the conditions of 45 ℃ and 50 weeks of 0.3C charge-discharge cycle.
The specific cubic capacity, compaction density and cycling performance of comparative example 1 were tested under the same conditions. The test results are: in comparative example 1, the discharge capacity of the material was 201.2mAh/g, the compacted density by a powder densitometer was 3.03g/cm3, the compacted density is area/(density after pole piece rolling-current collector thickness), the capacity retention rate of the button cell was 94.3% at 45 ℃ and 50 cycles of 0.3C charge and discharge, as shown in fig. 2.
The relevant experimental data in example 1 and comparative example 1 are shown in fig. 3,4, 5.
From the data of example 1 and comparative example 1, it can be seen that: although the discharge capacity of the material coated by the large and small grain compositions is reduced compared with that of the single small grain single crystal ternary material, the compact density comparison data of the positive pole piece can show that the large and small grain composition single crystal high nickel ternary material is obviously higher than the single grain high nickel ternary material, and the distribution of the large and small grain composition single crystal high nickel ternary material is more compact from the SEM morphology of figures 1 and 2. The manufacturing requirements of square, cylindrical and soft-package batteries with higher energy density can be met, and the method is applied to the fields of electric automobiles, energy storage power stations and the like.
By adopting the same test method, the graded single crystal high nickel ternary assembly obtained in the embodiment 2 is assembled into a CR2032 button cell, a Land cell test system is adopted to test the first discharge specific capacity of the button cell under the conditions of 2.5V-4.25V voltage, 25 ℃ and 0.2C charge and discharge, and the test result is as follows: the specific discharge capacity of the material in example 2 is 205.2mAh/g, while the specific discharge capacity of the material in comparative example 2 is 203.4mAh/g, as shown in FIG. 6, the specific discharge capacity of the material in example 2 is slightly higher, probably because the conductivity of the material is improved by the conductive polymer.
However, in terms of cycle, example 2 exhibited excellent stability, with a capacity retention rate of 93.6% at 50 cycles of 0.3C charge-discharge cycle, which was 3.8% higher than 89.8% of comparative example 2, as shown in fig. 7. This is strongly linked to the strength of the polymer network in terms of the attachment and stability of the large and small particles. In addition, the thermal stability of the material was further improved as shown in fig. 8. Full DSC testing showed an exotherm temperature of 224.3 deg.C for comparative example 2 and 232.5 deg.C for example 2, as shown in FIG. 8.
The results show that the formation of the in-situ polymer network effectively envelops the large and small particles, and simultaneously utilizes the viscosity of the polymer to better combine the large and small particles together, thereby preventing the large and small particles from being separated in the actual process and improving the electrochemical stability of the material; meanwhile, the polymer network can also effectively protect the material and improve the thermal stability of the material. So that the DSC exothermic peak temperature of the material is obviously improved.
