Description

Modified soft carbon negative electrode material and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to a lithium ion battery negative electrode material and a preparation method thereof, in particular to a high-rate modified soft carbon negative electrode material and a preparation method thereof.
Background
The lithium ion battery is a recyclable energy storage device, also called a lithium ion secondary battery, and mainly comprises a positive electrode, a negative electrode, a diaphragm and an electrolyte system. At present, the mainstream negative electrode materials are natural graphite and artificial graphite, if the materials are not modified, the compatibility of the materials and electrolyte is poor, the co-embedding condition is easy to occur, and a negative electrode graphite layer is peeled off during the cyclic charge and discharge, so that the cyclic stability of the battery is reduced. The modification method comprises surface light oxidation, particle shaping, surface amorphous carbon coating and the like. However, the low temperature and rate performance of the two materials is not good, and the risk of lithium metal precipitation exists when the working voltage is low.
The soft carbon is a non-graphite negative electrode material, contains a certain amount of graphite microcrystals and amorphous carbon, has large interlayer spacing and is easy to graphitize at high temperature. The soft carbon has the advantages of higher working voltage ratio, overcharge and overdischarge resistance, capability of preventing the problems of influence on safe use caused by short circuit and the like caused by lithium metal precipitation and low cost. And the electrolyte has good compatibility with the electrolyte, good cycle performance and great advantages in normal-temperature high-rate charging performance and low-temperature charging performance. The disadvantage is poor first charge and discharge capacity and coulombic efficiency. The abundant soft carbon materials on the market include petroleum coke and coal tar coke.
The soft carbon material has certain advantages in high-rate charging and low-temperature charging, but has defects in capacity and first efficiency, and most researches aim to improve the defects. However, in order to meet the requirement of the power battery on large-current charge and discharge of the electrode material, the rate capability of the soft carbon negative electrode material is further improved, and the soft carbon negative electrode material is also worthy of attention. In the prior art, soft carbon is generally used as an additive material to modify main materials such as graphite or silicon carbon, for example, in patent CN105449162B, soft carbon is used to modify natural graphite powder and then mixed with artificial graphite according to a certain ratio to obtain a negative electrode material with high specific capacity and excellent cycle performance. Certainly, the soft carbon is a cathode material with great potential for preparing a high-safety lithium ion power battery, so related researches are also reported. The patent CN106876710A discloses that ammonium molybdate and cobalt nitrate are added into raw materials such as coal tar, coal pitch, petroleum residual oil, petroleum pitch and the like, and are carbonized at the temperature of 900-1300 ℃ to obtain modified soft carbon, and the first efficiency of the soft carbon is as high as 86%. CN104852049A discloses that graphene powder is used for carrying out mixing modification on soft carbon powder, and the soft carbon negative electrode material with reversible specific capacity of more than 360mAh/g and efficiency of more than 85% is obtained through mixing, grinding, adding a binder and roasting. CN102428594A discloses a preparation method of a phosphorus and boron co-doped modified soft carbon material, which improves the capacity of soft carbon, but has the problems of higher average voltage, low compaction density and low energy density when used singly. Patent CN105261734B discloses that soft carbon is modified by doping phosphorus, and is compounded with natural graphite, and then coated to obtain various forms of core-shell structure negative electrode materials, and the result shows that the capacity of coke soft carbon is improved by doping heteroatom. The composite material can be compounded with graphite to better utilize the advantages of the composite material and increase the multiplying power and the cycle performance of the composite cathode material.
The above-mentioned soft carbon material modification process has some problems, for example, 1, the first effect and reversible capacity are improved with more attention, and the rate performance is less attention. 2. The catalyst is added for modification in the raw material carbonization process or the soft carbon secondary carbonization process, so that ash impurities are easily introduced, and the performance of the material is influenced to a greater or lesser extent. 3. The modification process is complex, and although the effect is good, the modification process brings more problems to operation and cost control.
