Description

High-entropy solid solution cathode material and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium ion batteries, and relates to a high-entropy solid solution cathode material, and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
At present, the problems of environmental pollution and energy shortage are increasingly serious, sustainable renewable energy sources, novel power batteries and efficient energy storage systems are developed for reducing pollution in the use process of fossil fuels, and reasonable configuration of renewable resources is realized, so that the method becomes the key point of research. The lithium ion battery is a novel high-energy green battery which attracts much attention, and compared with other energy storage systems, the lithium ion battery has the outstanding advantages of high storage energy per unit volume, long cycle life, good safety, no memory effect and the like. The method has wide application prospect and potential huge economic benefit in various aspects such as portable electronic equipment, electric automobiles, space technology, national defense industry and the like, and quickly becomes the focus of wide attention in recent years.
The anode material is an important component of the lithium ion battery and has great influence on the performance of the lithium ion battery. The positive electrode materials of lithium ion batteries that have been put into practical use at present can be roughly classified into three groups according to their structures, including lithium metal oxides having a hexagonal layered structure, spinel materials, and compounds having a polyanion structure. Among them, the layered oxide is attracting attention because of its high energy density, easy preparation, strong structural stability, and excellent lithium ion deintercalation/intercalation reversibility.
Aiming at the intrinsic defects of the commercial layered cathode material in the current market, such as poor cycle stability caused by irreversible structural phase change caused by the cyclic phase change under high voltage; the electron conductivity is low and the multiplying power performance caused by Li/Ni mixed discharge is poor; in the highly delithiated state, Ni4+Has a strong oxidizing property tending to reduce to form Ni3+To release O2Resulting in poor thermal stability. At present, the main means for improving the material performance is ion doping, and the stability of the material structure is improved to a certain extent by doping some metal ions into the crystal lattices of the layered material through various processes. However, the doping material has less doping element species at each time, and only acts on the interior of the material transition metal layer, so that the performance improvement is limited.
Most of the current anode material precursors produced in commercial production adopt ammonia water as a precipitator, and an important problem of the adoption of the ammonia water is that the ammonia water has high volatility, generates a large amount of ammonia wastewater byproducts and causes serious pollution; in addition, the preparation of the lithium ion battery anode material by adopting a coprecipitation method has long required period and various working procedures, and inert gas needs to be introduced in the reaction process to prevent partial ions such as manganese ions from being oxidized.
CN102881876A discloses a method for preparing a lithium-rich solid solution cathode material by a reduction coprecipitation method, which comprises the following steps of according to the molar ratio of lithium, nickel, manganese, cobalt and a reducing agent of (1+ x) to (1-x) y (x + z-x.z) to (1-x) k: and q, respectively weighing lithium, nickel, manganese, cobalt and a reducing agent. Mixing the measured wet grinding medium with nickel, manganese and cobalt, adding a reducing agent, stirring and mixing, adding an alkali liquor, carrying out wet grinding, aging, filtering and washing treatment, adding the wet grinding medium and a lithium compound, carrying out wet grinding and drying to prepare a precursor, placing the precursor in air, oxygen-enriched gas or pure oxygen atmosphere, and sintering to prepare the lithium-enriched solid solution cathode material.
CN102351253A discloses a preparation method of a manganese-based high-energy solid solution cathode material of a lithium ion battery, which comprises the following steps: (1) preparing a solution from a manganese source compound, a nickel source compound and a cobalt source compound according to a stoichiometric ratio; (2) preparing a precipitant, and adding ammonia water to prepare a mixed solution of the ammonia water and the precipitant; (3) adding the solution obtained in the step (1) and the solution obtained in the step (2) into inert gas for protection to obtain a precipitate; (4) filtering and washing the precipitate obtained in the step (3), drying in vacuum, adding a dispersing agent into the coprecipitate and a lithium-containing compound, grinding and mixing uniformly to obtain a manganese-based solid solution Li [ Li ]0.2Mn0.54Ni0.13Co0.13]O2A precursor; (4) putting the precursor obtained in the step (4) into a muffle furnace, roasting, and cooling to room temperature by liquid nitrogen; and crushing and granulating for the second time to obtain a sample.
In the two documents, a coprecipitation method is adopted to prepare the anode solid solution material, but an important problem of adopting the ammonia water is that the ammonia water has high volatility, a large amount of ammonia wastewater byproducts are generated, and a serious pollution problem is caused; in addition, the preparation of the lithium ion battery anode material by adopting a coprecipitation method has long required period and various working procedures, and inert gas needs to be introduced in the reaction process to prevent partial ions such as manganese ions from being oxidized.
Therefore, how to obtain a solid solution cathode material with stable structure and good electrochemical performance is a technical problem which needs to be solved urgently.
