and 3, sintering the mixture mixed in the step 2 to obtain the lithium cobaltate material co-coated with the bimetallic element.
This step is specifically described and illustrated below.
Step 1, uniformly mixing and sintering the weighed lithium source and cobalt source to obtain the lithium cobaltate cathode material.

The cobalt source is selected from one or more of cobalt acetate, cobalt nitrate, cobalt sulfate, cobaltosic oxide, cobalt hydroxide, cobalt carbonate and cobalt chloride; preferably, the cobalt source is selected from one or more of cobalt hydroxide, cobalt carbonate and cobaltosic oxide; more preferably, the cobalt source is tricobalt tetraoxide.
The molar ratio of the lithium element in the lithium source to the cobalt element in the cobalt source is (0.9-1.2): 1; preferably, the molar ratio of the lithium element in the lithium source to the cobalt element in the cobalt source is (1.0-1.1): 1; more preferably, the molar ratio of the lithium element in the lithium source to the cobalt element in the cobalt source is (1.0-1.05): 1.
in the present invention, the addition amount of each raw material should be controlled within a proper range, and if the addition amount of the lithium source is insufficient, lithium diffused into the material is insufficient, so that the capacity of the finally manufactured battery is reduced; if the amount of the lithium source added is too large, the cycle retention of the positive electrode material may be lowered. When the lithium source and the cobalt source are added according to the above molar ratio, the resulting material has a higher specific discharge capacity and excellent cycle performance.
And (3) placing the weighed lithium source and cobalt source into a high-speed mixer to be uniformly mixed, wherein the rotating speed of the mixer is 1200 r/min-2000 r/min, preferably 1200 r/min-1600 r/min, and more preferably 1400 r/min. If the stirring speed is too slow, the preparation efficiency is low, the stirring effect is poor, and if the stirring speed is too fast, the device is easy to be unstable.
The stirring time is 10-45 min, preferably 15-30 min, and more preferably 20 min. The stirring time is matched with the stirring speed, if the stirring time is too short, the mixing is not uniform, the electrochemical performance of the finally prepared product is influenced, and if the stirring time is too long, the preparation efficiency is reduced.
The sintering is carried out in an oxygen or air atmosphere. Preferably under an air atmosphere.
Sintering is carried out in a muffle furnace, and the sintering is divided into medium-temperature sintering and high-temperature sintering, wherein the medium-temperature sintering temperature is 450-800 ℃, preferably 600-800 ℃, and more preferably 700-800 ℃. Tests show that the lithium cobaltate positive electrode material prepared by twice sintering has more excellent cycle performance and discharge specific capacity.
The medium-temperature sintering time is 2-4 h, preferably 2.5-4 h, and more preferably 2.5-3.5 h.
The intermediate-temperature sintering temperature and time can affect the electrochemical performance of the finally prepared material, if the intermediate-temperature sintering temperature is too low, the intermediate-temperature sintering temperature cannot reach the decomposition temperature of a lithium source, and the amount of lithium decomposed and diffused into the material is too small, so that the capacitance of the material is reduced; if the medium-temperature sintering time is too short, the lithium source cannot be fully decomposed, and the amount of lithium diffused into the material is too small, so that the capacitance of the material is reduced; when the intermediate temperature sintering temperature is 450-700 ℃ and the sintering time is 2-4 h, the finally prepared material has better electrochemical performance.
The heating rate is 3 ℃/min to 7 ℃/min, preferably 3 ℃/min to 6 ℃/min, and more preferably 3.5 ℃/min to 4.5 ℃/min.
If the temperature rise rate is too high, the reaction in the material is too violent, and the crystal growing in the later period is easy to generate defects, so that the electrochemical performance of the finally prepared anode material is not improved.
The high-temperature sintering temperature is 800-1000 ℃, preferably 850-1000 ℃, and more preferably 900-980 ℃.
The high-temperature sintering time is 4-8 h, preferably 5.5-8 h, and more preferably 6-7.5 h.
The high-temperature sintering temperature and time can influence the electrochemical performance of the finally prepared material, and in the test process, the sintering time is too short if the sintering temperature is too low, so that the crystal structure of the lithium cobaltate anode material is incompletely grown and impurity phases are generated, the stability of the battery in the charging and discharging process is poor, and the electrochemical performance is reduced; if the sintering temperature is too high and the sintering time is too long, secondary crystallization may be caused, and the specific surface area of the cathode material is reduced, resulting in reduction of capacitance.
The heating rate is 1 to 4 ℃/min, preferably 1 to 3 ℃/min, and more preferably 1 to 2 ℃/min.
If the temperature rise rate is too fast, the growth of the crystal structure of the lithium cobaltate positive electrode material is not facilitated, the crystallinity of the lithium cobaltate positive electrode material is low, and the electrochemical performance of the finally prepared material is reduced; if the temperature rise rate is too slow, the sintering time required by the material is longer, and the preparation efficiency is reduced.
And crushing and sieving the sintered product to obtain the lithium cobaltate cathode material with a certain particle size. The crushing is preferably mechanical crushing, and more preferably crushing is performed by sequentially passing through a jaw crusher, a pair of rollers and an airflow crusher.

The lithium cobaltate positive electrode material has a median particle diameter of 5 to 19 μm, preferably 7 to 18 μm, and more preferably 9 to 17 μm.
Tests show that the particle size of the lithium cobaltate cathode material is related to the electrochemical performance of the prepared final material. If the particle size of the lithium cobaltate positive electrode material is too large, the electrical property of the finally prepared material is reduced, which may be caused by the fact that the particle size of the lithium cobaltate material is too large, so that the specific surface area of the material is reduced, the effective contact area with an electrolyte is reduced, the electrical conductivity of the material is reduced, the amount of the reacted effective lithium ions is reduced, and the capacitance of the material is correspondingly reduced; if the particle size of the lithium cobaltate positive electrode material is too small, the specific surface area of the positive electrode material is increased, the contact area of the positive electrode material and the electrolyte is increased, the dissolution of cobalt is increased, the attenuation speed of the capacitance of the finally prepared material is increased, and the rate capability is reduced. When the median particle size of the lithium cobaltate positive electrode material is 5-19 mu m, the prepared final material has higher capacity retention rate and discharge specific capacity.
And 2, adding the weighed aluminum-containing compound and yttrium-containing compound into the lithium cobaltate positive electrode material prepared in the step 1, and uniformly mixing.
The aluminum-containing compound is selected from one or more of aluminum oxide, aluminum hydroxide, aluminum sulfate, aluminum nitrate, aluminum chloride, aluminum isopropoxide, aluminum metaphosphate and aluminum phosphate; preferably, the aluminum-containing compound is selected from one or more of aluminum hydroxide, aluminum oxide and aluminum phosphate; more preferably, the aluminium-containing compound is selected from one or both of aluminium oxide and aluminium hydroxide.

The mass ratio of the aluminum-containing compound, the yttrium-containing compound and the lithium cobaltate positive electrode material in the step 1 is (0.0003-0.003): 0.0009-0.009): 1, preferably (0.0006-0.0025): 0.001-0.005): 1, and more preferably (0.0015-0.0025): 0.0013-0.002): 1.
And (2) placing the weighed aluminum-containing compound and yttrium-containing compound and the lithium cobaltate material prepared in the step (1) into a high-speed mixer to be uniformly mixed, wherein the rotating speed is 800 r/min-1500 r/min, preferably 900 r/min-1200 r/min, and more preferably 1000 r/min. If the stirring speed is too slow, the uniformity of the mixture after stirring is poor, the stirring efficiency is low, and if the stirring speed is too fast, particles of the lithium cobaltate positive electrode material can be broken, and the device can be unstable.
The stirring time is 5-45 min, preferably 15-30 min, and more preferably 25-30 min. The stirring time is matched with the stirring speed, if the stirring time is too short, the uniformity of the mixture after stirring is low, the electrochemical performance of the finally prepared product is influenced, and if the stirring time is too long, the preparation efficiency is reduced.
And 3, sintering the mixture mixed in the step 2 to obtain the lithium cobaltate material co-coated with the bimetallic element.
The sintering is carried out in an air or oxygen atmosphere; preferably, the sintering is performed under an air atmosphere.
The sintering is carried out in two sections, including medium-temperature sintering and high-temperature sintering; the inventor finds that the bi-metal element co-coated lithium cobalt oxide material prepared by sintering twice has more excellent cycle performance and discharge specific capacity in the test process.
The medium-temperature sintering temperature is 400-600 ℃, and preferably 450-600 ℃; more preferably from 450 ℃ to 550 ℃.
The sintering time is 2 to 4 hours, preferably 3 to 4 hours, and more preferably 3 to 3.5 hours.
The heating rate is 3 ℃/min to 6 ℃/min, preferably 4 ℃/min to 6 ℃/min, and more preferably 4 ℃/min to 5 ℃/min.
The high-temperature sintering temperature is 700-1200 ℃, preferably 800-900 ℃, and more preferably 850-900 ℃.
The high-temperature sintering temperature affects the electrochemical performance of the finally prepared material, and if the sintering temperature is too high, the electrical performance of the finally prepared material is reduced, which may be because the secondary crystallization is promoted due to the too high sintering temperature, so that the specific surface area of the anode material is reduced, the lithium ion is not easy to be deintercalated, and the capacitance is correspondingly reduced; if the sintering temperature is too low, the cycle performance and the specific discharge capacity of the prepared final material are also low, which may be caused by incomplete reaction and unstable growth of a crystal structure due to too low sintering temperature, so that the crystallinity of the prepared material is low, impurity phases are generated, the stability of the battery in the charging and discharging process is poor, and the electrochemical performance is reduced.
The sintering time is 4 to 12 hours, preferably 5 to 10 hours, and more preferably 7 to 9 hours.
The sintering time is matched with the sintering temperature, if the sintering time is too short, the crystal structure is not completely grown, so that the structural stability of the battery in the charging and discharging processes is poor, and the electrochemical performance is poor; if the sintering time is too long, the sintering time is prolonged, the preparation efficiency is reduced, secondary crystallization of the positive electrode material is caused, the particle size of the prepared material is too large, the specific surface area is too small, and the capacitance is reduced.
The heating rate is 1 to 3 ℃/min, preferably 2 to 3 ℃/min, and more preferably 2 to 2.5 ℃/min.
If the temperature rise rate is too fast, the growth of the crystal structure of the material is not facilitated, and the crystal structure is not completely grown, so that the electrochemical performance of the finally prepared material is reduced; if the temperature rise rate is too slow, the material sintering time is long, resulting in a decrease in preparation efficiency.
The sintered product is crushed, preferably mechanically. And (4) sieving the crushed product, preferably sieving the crushed product by using a 300-mesh sieve to obtain the lithium cobaltate material co-coated with the aluminum and the yttrium.
