Description

4.7V-grade lithium cobaltate positive electrode material, preparation method thereof and corresponding battery
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium ion batteries, and relates to a 4.7V-grade lithium cobaltate positive electrode material, a preparation method thereof and a corresponding battery.
Background
Lithium ion batteries are widely used in the fields of consumer electronics, electric vehicles, aerospace and the like due to their advantages of high energy density and power density, long cycle life, no memory effect, environmental friendliness and the like. With the rapid development of the internet industry and the arrival of the 5G era, the cruising demand of people on mobile terminals (such as smart phones, VR glasses, unmanned aerial vehicles, small robots and the like) is higher and higher. As a power core component of a mobile terminal, the energy density of a lithium ion battery has become a core of consumer appeal. The lithium ion battery comprises a positive electrode, a negative electrode, electrolyte, a diaphragm and a battery package. The most critical component affecting energy density is the lithium storage capacity of the positive and negative electrode materials. So far, the energy of the traditional graphite cathode has been exerted to the utmost, while the energy of the cathode material is exerted to a relatively small extent.
Lithium cobaltate has high tap density, high voltage and stable cycle performance, and has become a poor choice for the anode material of the battery of consumer electronics products. Lithium cobaltate has a theoretical capacity of 274 mAh/g, but in practice it usually only gives a capacity of around 160 mAh/g, since the charge cut-off voltage is set at around 4.35V. When the charge is cut off to increase the voltage, more lithium ions are extracted, i.e., higher capacity is exerted. For example, by setting the charge cut-off voltage to 4.7V, a specific capacity of about 240 mAh/g can be exhibited, which is close to 88% of the theoretical capacity. However, CoO due to the large amount of lithium ion deintercalation2The layers are supported only by electrostatic force, so that on one hand, expansion and contraction of c-axis crystal lattices are caused, and lattice distortion and crystal plane slippage are caused; on the other hand, Co due to the deintercalation of lithium ions3+Is oxidized into Co4+Highly active Co4+Will react with the carbonate electrolyte, leading to decomposition of the electrolyte and CO2Etc. generation of gases. The generation of gas can cause the cell to bulge and the process is an exothermic reaction, which can lead to explosion of the cell in severe cases. Furthermore, Co4+The participation in the reaction leads to irreversible dissolution of Co, thereby destroying CoO2The structure of the layer seriously affects the reversible capacity exertion of the battery.

Disclosure of Invention
Aiming at the problem of low capacity of the existing lithium cobaltate cathode material, the invention aims to provide a 4.7V-grade lithium cobaltate cathode material, a preparation method thereof and a corresponding battery, which have stable cycle performance while improving the charge cut-off voltage to realize high capacity. The 4.7V-grade lithium cobaltate positive electrode material is a lithium cobaltate positive electrode material with the working voltage of 4.7V. The purpose of the invention is realized by the following technical scheme.
A4.7V-grade lithium cobaltate positive electrode material is characterized in that the positive electrode material is of a core-shell structure, and the core is lithium cobaltate; the shell layer is rare earth metal doped lithium cobaltate, and the rare earth metal ions replace Li+The doping depth of the position (1) is 1-200 nm of the surface of the lithium cobaltate; the rare earth metal ions have a 4f orbital.
Among lanthanides, rare earth metal ions have a unique 4f orbital. Due to the dispersive nature of the 4f electron, its shielding effect on the nucleus is weak, and therefore, as the number of 4f electrons increases, the ionic radius of the lanthanide gradually decreases, which is known as "lanthanide contraction". And the rare earth metal ions containing more than or equal to 7 electrons with 4f have more proper ionic radius, namely closer to the radius of lithium ions, so that the rare earth metal ions are more suitable to be doped in the position of lithium cobaltate for replacing Li, and the stability of the lithium cobaltate under high voltage is improved. The rare earth elements with 4f electrons or more include europium, gadolinium, terbium, dysprosium, holmium, erbium, thulium, ytterbium and lutetium.
The performance degradation of lithium cobaltate is mainly attributed to the structural damage, which is diffused from the outside to the inside. Therefore, surface doping can play a critical role in stabilizing the lithium cobaltate structure. In addition, doping of + 3-valent rare earth ions into the lithium cobaltate bulk phase inevitably causes reduction in the valence state of Co, thereby reducing highly active Co4+In the above-described manner, the formation of (2),the surface of the material is stabilized. Furthermore, the doping of rare earth ions in the lithium layer relieves the CoO of lithium cobaltate in a high delithiation state2The lattice distortion caused by the electrostatic interaction of the layers improves the structural stability of the lithium cobaltate under high voltage, so that the lithium cobaltate material can maintain high capacity and good cycle performance under the high voltage of 4.7V.
Compared with the prior art, the 4.7V-grade lithium cobaltate cathode material provided by the invention mostly adopts a multi-grade core-shell structure of a coating layer, a doping layer and lithium cobaltate, and only needs the doping layer and the core-shell structure of the lithium cobaltate; doping with rare earth metal ions having 4f orbitals, substituting Li with rare earth metal ions+The position of (2) and the control of the doping depth are the key points for obtaining the 4.7V grade lithium cobaltate cathode material with high capacity and cycling stability.
Further, the weight of the rare earth metal accounts for 0.1-10% of the weight of the positive electrode material.
Further, the rare earth metal is one or more of europium, gadolinium, terbium, dysprosium, holmium, erbium, thulium, ytterbium and lutetium.
Further, the working voltage of the anode material is 2.5-4.7V.
The invention provides a preparation method of a 4.7V-grade lithium cobaltate positive electrode material, which is used for relieving the negative influence of performance deterioration caused by lattice strain of lithium cobaltate in a high lithium removal state, so that the lithium cobaltate positive electrode material has high capacity and stable cycle performance under the ultrahigh charge cut-off voltage of 4.7V. The method specifically comprises the following steps:
(1) preparing a rare earth metal source, a cobalt source and a lithium source according to a proportion to form a mixture;
(2) calcining the mixture at 800-1200 ℃ for 4-24 hours to obtain a primary calcined product;
(3) crushing the primary calcined product, and then calcining for 4-24 hours at 800-1200 ℃ for the second time to obtain a crude lithium cobaltate product;
(4) and crushing the crude lithium cobaltate product to obtain a 4.7V-grade lithium cobaltate cathode material finished product.
The doping depth of the anode material provided by the invention is 1-200 nm of the surface of lithium cobaltate, and the surface doping depth is controlled by the calcining temperature and time length: under the same calcining temperature, the longer the calcining time is, the deeper the doping is; and under the same calcining time, the higher the calcining temperature is, the deeper the doping is.
Further, the lithium source and the cobalt source in the step (1) are prepared according to a molar ratio of 1-1.2: 1.
Further, the rare earth metal source in the step (1) is one or more of simple substances, oxides, chlorides, carbonates, nitrates, sulfates, acetates, oxalates and phosphates of europium, gadolinium, terbium, dysprosium, holmium, erbium, thulium, ytterbium and lutetium; the cobalt source is one or more of oxide, hydroxide, chloride, nitrate, sulfate, carbonate, acetate, oxalate and phosphate of cobalt; the lithium source is one or more of oxides, hydroxides, nitrates, carbonates, oxalates, acetates and citrates of lithium.
Further, the rare earth metal source in the step (1) is an aqueous solution or an ethanol solution of soluble salts of europium, gadolinium, terbium, dysprosium, holmium, erbium, thulium, ytterbium and lutetium, and the rare earth metal source is Co3O4Powder, the lithium source being Li2CO3Powder; the method for forming the mixed material is to mix Co3O4Adding the powder into the aqueous solution or ethanol solution, heating and stirring until the solvent is completely volatilized to obtain the rare earth metal source and Co3O4And then mixing the solid mixture with Li2CO3And (4) uniformly mixing the powder.
Further, the heating rate before the calcination in the steps (2) and (3) is 0.1-10 ℃/min.
The invention also provides a lithium ion battery which comprises an anode, a diaphragm, a cathode, electrolyte and a battery shell, wherein the anode adopts the 4.7V-grade lithium cobalt oxide anode material.
The invention has the following technical effects: the invention provides a universal method for preparing rare earth element surface-doped lithium cobaltate, and the preparation process is simple and is suitable for large-scale industrial production. The 4.7V-grade lithium cobaltate cathode material provided by the invention has the first reversible capacity of 240.1mAh/g under the charge cut-off voltage of 4.7V, and has good cycling stability.
The improvement of the stability can be attributed to the stability of the rare earth ions to the surface structure of lithium cobaltate. Because the performance degradation of lithium cobaltate is mainly attributed to the structural damage, which is diffused from the outside to the inside. Therefore, surface doping can play a critical role in stabilizing the lithium cobaltate structure. In addition, the rare earth ions doped in the lithium layer not only play a role of supporting a layered structure, but also replace the lithium ions with low valence by the rare earth ions with high valence, so that the valence of the surrounding Co can be reduced, and the Co valence in the charging process is reduced4+Is performed. The universal synthesis method and the excellent electrochemical performance have very important practical significance for realizing the application of the lithium ion battery with higher energy density.
