Therefore, the titanium niobate negative electrode material becomes a fast-charge type lithium ionResearch hotspots on anode materials. However, since the band gap of titanium niobate is wide (-2.9 eV), and wherein Ti 4+ And Nb (Nb) 5+ All in the highest valence state, no unpaired electrons, resulting in material conductivity and poor, almost insulating. In addition, li of titanium niobate + The diffusion coefficient is also low, resulting in a large interfacial resistance between the titanium niobate anode material and the electrolyte. The defects in the two aspects lead to lower electronic conductivity and ionic conductivity of the titanium niobate anode material, thus severely limiting the coulombic efficiency and the multiplying power performance of the titanium niobate anode material, and the defects limit the commercialization application of the titanium niobate anode material in lithium ion batteries.

As can be seen from Table 1, the pH of the composite material of example 1 was 10.6, the prepared CR2430 type battery had a reversible specific capacity of 218.3mAh/g for the first time at a current density of 1C, a capacity retention rate after 100 cycles was 97.1%, the battery capacity remained 184.1mAh/g at a current density of 20C, and a capacity retention rate of 20C/1C was 84.3%, and the composite material of example 1 exhibited good cycle performance and rate performance. Example 2 the lithium source used to prepare lithium titanate was replaced with lithium hydroxide monohydrate, and the subsequent continuous heat treatment resulted in an increase in the initial particle size of lithium titanate, and eventually in a deterioration in the cycle and rate performance of the multi-layered titanium-based composite material, due to the lower melting point and greater basicity of lithium hydroxide. Example 3 the electrochemical properties of the composite material prepared in example 1 were not significantly different from those of the titanium source and niobium source species required for the preparation of titanium niobate. Example 4 to reduce the firing and carbonization temperatures of titanium niobate, the crystallinity of titanium niobate is reduced, the specific capacity of the composite material is increased, the cycle and rate performance are slightly increased, but the initial effect is reduced. In example 5, the solid phase coating was adjusted to the gas phase coating, and the cycle stability and rate performance of the composite material were improved due to the uniformity of the carbon coating. Comparative example 1 is a pure-phase prepared nano lithium titanate, which has high initial efficiency, excellent cycle and rate performance, but lower specific capacity. While comparative example 2 is a carbon-coated titanium niobate material having a higher capacity but a lower initial efficiency and poor cycle and rate performance. Comparative example 3 is to reduce the Ti/Nb molar ratio in titanium niobate, and both the cycle stability and rate performance of the composite material are reduced. In comparative example 4, in order to reduce the coating proportion of titanium niobate, the capacity increase of the composite material is not obvious, the coating effect is not uniform, and the processing stability of the material is not obviously improved. In example 5, the coating ratio of titanium niobate was increased, but the side reaction was increased, the initial effect was significantly reduced, and the cycle stability and rate capability were poor. Comparative example 6 is to improve the crystallinity of titanium niobate, but the particle size is significantly increased, the capacity is reduced, the initial effect is increased, and the cycle stability and the rate performance are significantly deteriorated.
In conclusion, the preparation method is simple and controllable in operation, simple in process flow, low in cost and high in automation degree; the prepared titanium-based composite material with the multi-layer structure has a core-shell structure, lithium titanate is taken as an inner core, a first coating layer is titanium niobate, and a second coating layer is a carbon layer; the coating of the titanium niobate and the carbon layer can reduce the pH of the lithium titanate and the surface characteristics of the lithium titanate inner core, improve the processing stability of the material and inhibit the gas production phenomenon of the lithium titanate in the charge and discharge process, and the titanium niobate is introduced to make up for the disadvantage of lower theoretical specific capacity of the lithium titanate, and the carbon material coating layer can increase the conductivity of the composite material and improve the cycling stability of the battery.
