Description

Quaternary positive electrode material and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium ion batteries, and relates to a quaternary anode material, and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Lithium ion batteries have become the most widely used electrochemical power source at present, and the most representative of such batteries is lithium secondary batteries (LIBs) which generate electric energy by the change of chemical potential when lithium ions in a positive electrode and a negative electrode are intercalated and deintercalated. The positive electrode material has a direct leading effect on the performance of LIBs, and therefore, many researchers are dedicated to realizing a positive electrode material which has a large capacity, a fast charge/discharge speed and a long cycle life and can reversibly intercalate and deintercalate lithium ions. Currently, ultra-high nickel materials are considered to be the most promising candidate materials because they can increase the specific capacity of lithium ion batteries by increasing the nickel content. However, the resulting poor cycling stability of lithium ion batteries may hinder the success of this approach.
In addition, the quaternary polycrystalline material in the ultra-high nickel material has more advantages in safety and cycling stability than the ternary cathode material, and is one of the most promising materials at present.
CN111302407A discloses a high-nickel quaternary positive electrode material precursor and a preparation method thereof, a high-nickel quaternary positive electrode material and a preparation method thereof, and a lithium ion battery. The high-nickel quaternary positive electrode material precursor comprises nickel, cobalt, manganese and aluminum elements, the content of nickel and aluminum is gradually reduced and the content of cobalt and manganese is gradually increased from the core of the high-nickel quaternary positive electrode material precursor to the surface, or the content of nickel, cobalt and aluminum is kept unchanged in a predetermined area from the core of the high-nickel quaternary positive electrode material precursor to the surface, the content of nickel and aluminum is gradually reduced and the content of cobalt and manganese is gradually increased outside the predetermined area, or the content of nickel, cobalt, aluminum and manganese is kept unchanged in the predetermined area from the core of the high-nickel quaternary positive electrode material precursor to the surface, the content of nickel and aluminum is gradually reduced and the content of cobalt and manganese is gradually increased outside the predetermined area, and the predetermined area comprises the core of the high-nickel quaternary positive electrode material precursor. The preparation method of the cathode material is complex, and the cycle performance is poor.
CN109256543A discloses a modified nickel cobalt manganese lithium aluminate cathode material and a preparation method thereof, wherein a nickel salt solution, a cobalt salt solution and a manganese salt solution are added into a precursor prepared by coprecipitation of a nickel salt solution, a cobalt salt solution and an aluminum salt solution, and the obtained precursor is sintered to obtain a modified nickel cobalt manganese lithium aluminate cathode material precursor, and then the modified nickel cobalt manganese lithium aluminate cathode material is obtained by hydrothermal reaction with graphene in a reaction kettle. The method does not clearly indicate the electrochemical performance of the anode material before coating, the improvement of the material by adding aluminum cannot be reflected after the graphene is coated and modified, the hydrothermal reaction condition requirement is higher, the control is difficult, and the synthesis process is more complex.
The method has the problems of complex preparation process or poor cycle performance of the prepared high-nickel quaternary positive electrode material, so that the development of the high-nickel quaternary positive electrode material with simple preparation method and good cycle performance is necessary.
