Meanwhile, the method has good application prospect in the fields of pure electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, energy storage and the like. The lithium ion battery commercialized at present mainly uses graphite as a negative electrode material. However, in recent years, the demand for energy density of batteries has been rapidly increasing in various fields, and development of lithium ion batteries with higher energy density has been strongly demanded. Therefore, the development of a negative electrode material with higher energy density is urgent.
The highest specific mass capacity of the silicon material can reach 4200mA h g-1(Li22Si5) The lower lithium storage reaction voltage platform is the material which is known to be the highest theoretical specific volume of the negative electrode of the lithium ion battery at present. And the silicon material is environment-friendly, abundant in reserve and low in cost, so that the silicon-based negative electrode material is a novel high-energy material with great development prospect. However, the electronic conductivity and ionic conductivity of silicon are low, resulting in poor kinetics of electrochemical reactions; more importantly, the phase change and volume expansion of silicon in the lithiation process can generate larger stress, so that the electrode is broken and pulverized, the resistance is increased, and the cycle performance is suddenly reduced. The nano silicon and the carbonaceous material are compounded, so that the conductivity of the silicon-carbon cathode material can be improved, and the carbonaceous material can also be used as a buffer matrix to provide a certain buffer effect for the volume change of the silicon. However, the nano silicon has a large specific surface area and is easy to agglomerate, and the silicon in the obtained silicon-carbon composite material is often unevenly distributed, so that the improvement of the electrochemical performance of the negative electrode material is limited.
