some of the condition parameters of examples 1 to 5 and comparative examples 1 to 8 are shown in Table 1.
TABLE 1
Figure BDA0003229485530000171
The modified graphite nano-silicon composite materials obtained in examples 1 to 5 and comparative examples 1 to 8 were mixed with acetylene black and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC-Na) in a mass ratio of 8. And (3) putting the copper foil into an air-blowing drying box at 80 ℃, drying, punching into an electrode plate with the diameter of 14mm, and then carrying out vacuum drying at 80 ℃ for 12 hours. Transferring the electrode plate into a glove box filled with argon, taking a lithium plate as a counter electrode, celgard as a diaphragm and 1M LiPF 6 (EC: DEC =1, 5% fec) was used as an electrolyte, and 2016 was assembled into a button cell battery. A LAND (CT 2001A, wuhan blue power) battery test system is adopted to perform constant current charge and discharge test (the cut-off voltage range is 0.001-3.00V) on the button cell in a 30 ℃ thermostat. The specific volume capacity, the first coulombic efficiency and the capacity retention rate after 100 cycles of the examples and the comparative examples can be obtained through a charge-discharge test.
Tap density was measured using a tap density tester (FT-100A). The test results are shown in table 2.
TABLE 2
Figure BDA0003229485530000181
As can be seen from Table 2, the modified graphite nano-silicon composite materials of examples 1 to 5 of the invention have good tap density, volume specific capacity, first coulombic efficiency and cyclicity combination property when applied to the negative electrode material; the first coulomb efficiency and capacity retention rate in examples 1-2 have relatively better comprehensive performance; compared with the comparative examples 1 to 3, partial steps are reduced, so that the tap density and the volume specific capacity are greatly reduced, and the cyclicity is reduced; comparative example 4 Using an unmodified phenolic resin, tap density was reduced to 0.75cm 3 The volumetric specific capacity of the material is only 74% of that of example 2, and analysis is possible due to the fact that the carbon residue rate of the unmodified phenolic resin is reduced relative to that of the boron modified phenolic resin, and the porosity is increased; comparative example 5 tap Density of only 0.7cm 3 The specific volume capacity of the material is further reduced to 68% of that of the material in example 2, and simultaneously, the first coulombic efficiency and the cycle stability are also reduced, probably because the thermal stability of the epoxy resin is poor, the carbon residue rate is low, and the porosity is high, so that the coating effect is limited; compared with the prior art, the silicon modified phenolic resin adopted in the comparative example 6 has lower tap density and lower specific capacity, so that the volume specific capacity is correspondingly reduced; in comparative example 7, the cycle stability is reduced because the vapor deposition temperature is reduced and the deposition of the carbon coating layer on the surface of the material is incomplete; in the comparative example 8, the coating amount of the phenolic resin is increased, and the coating layer is too thick due to too high amount of the phenolic resin, so that the first coulombic efficiency of the material is reduced, and the cycle stability is reduced.
In addition, the results of the cycle test of the modified graphite nano-silicon composite in example 1 are shown in fig. 1.
As can be seen from FIG. 1, the cycle stability of the modified graphite nano-silicon composite material prepared by the method is greatly improved. In the embodiment 1, the reversible specific capacity of the sample in the first circulation is 683.3 mA.h/g, the first coulombic efficiency is 88.3%, the reversible specific capacity after 100 cycles of circulation is 659.2 mA.h/g, and the capacity retention rate is up to 96.5%. That is, the capacity loss rate of the modified graphite nano-silicon composite material after one cycle is only 0.04%. The pressing process and the secondary carbon coating can reduce the direct contact of the nano silicon particles and the electrolyte, and reduce the occurrence of side reactions; on the other hand, the carbon coating layer can buffer the volume expansion effect of the nano silicon during lithium intercalation, and the stability of the structure is maintained.
