Detailed Description
In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some embodiments of the present application, but not all embodiments.
The embodiment of the application provides a preparation method of a composite cathode material, which comprises the following steps:
and step S1, reacting the ternary cathode material with a silane coupling agent to hydrolyze the silane coupling agent to generate a first protective layer connected to the surface of the ternary cathode material, wherein the material of the first protective layer comprises silicon dioxide.
The silane coupling agent can be hydrolyzed to generate silicon dioxide connected to the surface of the ternary cathode material, and the silicon dioxide can effectively inhibit the side reaction of the ternary core and the electrolyte, so that the cycling stability of the electrode is improved.
Therefore, according to the scheme, the first protective layer containing silicon dioxide is connected to the surface of the ternary cathode material, so that the cycle stability of the lithium ion battery can be effectively improved.
It should be noted that the first protective layer obtained by the above method may contain silicon oxide, but since silicon oxide is very unstable in air, silicon oxide is easily oxidized to silicon dioxide in air. Therefore, the main component in the first protective layer is silicon dioxide, so that the effects of inhibiting the side reaction of the ternary core and the electrolyte and improving the cycle stability of the lithium ion battery can be effectively achieved.
It should be noted that, the silane coupling agent is hydrolyzed to generate silica, which is covalently bonded with the ternary cathode material, and thus only a thin layer of silica is formed on the surface of the ternary cathode material. The wrapping method conventional in the art forms a wrapping layer (wrapping other materials on the surface of the ternary cathode material), and multiple layers of materials are inevitably stacked, so that the thickness of the wrapping layer is very thick. Therefore, the first protective layer can be used as a thin inert layer to effectively inhibit the side reaction of the ternary core and the electrolyte, and meanwhile, the thin layer (relative to the conventional wrapping layer) connected by the covalent bond hardly influences the electrochemical performance of the ternary cathode material.
Further, the step of reacting the ternary cathode material with a silane coupling agent comprises:
modifying the ternary cathode material by adopting an alkaline substance to graft hydroxyl on the surface of the ternary cathode material;
then reacting with silane coupling agent to hydrolyze the silane coupling agent to generate silicon dioxide, and grafting aminopropyl on the silicon dioxide.
By grafting hydroxyl on the surface of the ternary cathode material, the ternary cathode material can be connected with a silane-coupled hydrolysate in a covalent bond manner, so that the connection strength of the first protective layer and the ternary cathode material can be effectively improved.
Furthermore, the aminopropyl is grafted on the silicon dioxide and can be used as a reaction site of subsequent polymerization reaction, so that the second protective layer and the first protective layer form covalent bond connection, and the connection strength of the first protective layer and the second protective layer is improved.
Further, the ternary cathode material is mixed with alkali, and then a silane coupling agent is added for reaction.
Further, ammonia is selected as the base.
Further optionally, the mass fraction of the ammonia water is 25% to 28%. Illustratively, the mass fraction of ammonia is 26% or 27%.
Further, the silane coupling agent is selected from one or more of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane and 3-aminopropyldimethylethoxysilane.
By selecting the silane coupling agent, not only can hydrolysis reaction be carried out to generate silicon dioxide to coat the surface of the ternary cathode material, but also amino groups can be grafted on the surface of the ternary cathode material. Further, the amino group can serve as a reaction site of an in-situ polymerization reaction in a subsequent reaction, improving the connection strength between the second connection layer comprising the conductive polymer and the first connection layer.
The reaction principle of step S1 of the present application is illustrated below by fig. 1:
the solid circles in fig. 1 represent the ternary positive electrode material core. Firstly, alkaline substances such as ammonia water are adopted to pretreat the ternary positive electrode material kernel, so that hydroxyl is grafted on the surface of the ternary positive electrode material kernel; and then, mixing the ternary positive electrode material kernel grafted with hydroxyl with a silane coupling agent, so that the silane coupling agent is subjected to hydrolysis reaction and forms covalent bond connection with the hydroxyl on the surface of the ternary positive electrode material kernel. Meanwhile, the selected silane coupling agent has aminopropyl and can graft amino groups on the surface of the core of the ternary cathode material. While the amino group can provide a reactive site for subsequent polymerization reactions.
When the hydroxyl groups on the surface of the core of the ternary positive electrode material are covalently bonded, the covalent bond may include a silicon-oxygen bond or another covalent bond. However, no matter what kind of covalent bond is, compared with the wrapping mode (wrapping a layer of wrapping layer on the surface of the ternary cathode material core) in the prior art, the connection mode of the covalent bond greatly improves the connection strength of the ternary cathode material core and the first protective layer.
Further, in some embodiments herein, the step of reacting the ternary positive electrode material with a silane coupling agent comprises:
and mixing the ternary cathode material with the dispersion liquid, adding an alkaline substance after uniform dispersion, mixing and uniformly dispersing, and then adding a silane coupling agent for reaction.
Further, the dispersant may be selected from alcohols, such as ethanol.
Further, the dispersion can be carried out in an ultrasonic dispersion mode, and further optionally, the ultrasonic dispersion time is 15-30 minutes.

And S2, carrying out in-situ polymerization reaction on the product obtained in the step S1 and a polymer monomer to generate a second protective layer connected to the surface of the first protective layer, wherein the material of the second protective layer comprises a conductive polymer.
Through connect the second protective layer that contains conductive polymer at first protective layer surface, can improve composite cathode material's electrochemical properties, and because the scheme second protective layer of this application is connected on first protective layer surface, consequently need not carry out high temperature carbonization, also can guarantee composite cathode material's stability and excellent electrochemical properties to can effectively improve lithium ion battery's electrochemical properties.
Further, as the scheme of the application does not need high-temperature carbonization treatment, compared with the conventional means in the field, the method greatly reduces the process complexity, simplifies the preparation steps and reduces the cost.

and carrying out in-situ polymerization reaction on the positive electrode material connected with the first protective layer, a polymer monomer and an oxidant.
Further, the polymer monomer is selected from aniline.
In the scheme of this application, because first protective layer surface has aminopropyl, when the cathode material that will be connected with first protective layer carries out the normal position polymerization reaction with polymer monomer, oxidant, the aniline monomer can be preferentially with the aminopropyl reaction on the first protective layer to can form covalent bond connection with first protective layer, and then can greatly improve conducting polymer and the joint strength of first protective layer, and then also make the joint strength of second protective layer and ternary cathode material kernel higher.

As can be seen from fig. 2, the composite cathode material prepared in example 1 forms a double-layer structure, and the thin first protective layer containing silicon dioxide can effectively avoid side reactions between the electrolyte and the ternary core; and the second protective layer containing the conductive polymer is connected with the first protective layer through covalent bonds, so that the connection strength is greatly improved. The problem of among the prior art carbon coating structural strength weak suffer destruction easily is solved.
Experimental example 2
The composite positive electrode materials provided in examples 1 to 3 and comparative example 1 were prepared into lithium ion batteries under the same conditions, and cycle performance was tested. The test results are shown in figure 3 of the specification.
As can be seen from fig. 3, the cycle performance of the composite positive electrode materials of examples 1 to 3 is significantly better than that of comparative example 1. Therefore, the scheme of adding 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane can effectively improve the cycling stability of the material. Further, it can be seen from the cycle test results of examples 1 to 3 that the addition amount of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane increases continuously, and the battery capacity is improved to a certain extent, because the more the addition amount of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane increases, the more uniform the coating effect of the material and the conductive carbon layer is, the more uniform conductive network is formed, the more beneficial is to the transmission of lithium ions, and the capacity of the material is fully exerted. Further, it can be seen from the figure that as the addition amount of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane increases, the cycle stability is also improved because the more the addition amount of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane increases, the more stable the structure of the formed carbon coating layer is.
