Description

Core-shell structure composite particle and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to a core-shell structure composite particle and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Silicon (Si) is used as an efficient and environment-friendly rechargeable battery cathode material, and the theoretical capacity of the silicon (Si) is 3600mAhg-1) Is obviously higher than that of a commercial graphite anode material (350--1). However, the silicon-based negative electrode greatly expands in volume during lithiation and simultaneously has high reactivity with an organic electrolyte, resulting in rapid capacity fade. In addition, Si has low conductivity, which also limits its practical applications. For silicon-based cathodes, a rational structural design is an effective solution to most of the problems faced by silicon-based cathodes. Therefore, various structural design methods such as a core-shell structure, a yolk-shell structure, a hollow structure and the like are developed to adapt to the volume change of the silicon-based material. Among them, one effective strategy is to encapsulate silicon particles in carbon spheres having voids to form a core-shell structure. The composite structure has the advantages that a buffer space exists between the outer carbon layer and the inner cathode particles, the volume expansion of the silicon cathode is accommodated, meanwhile, the outer carbon particles can avoid the direct contact of the silicon cathode and electrolyte, and the problem of poor conductivity of the silicon cathode is solved.
The effectiveness of the core-shell structure with Si/C having internal voids has been demonstrated in a number of reports. To prepare such core-shell structures, the prior art generally employs a sol-gel process to hydrolyze SiO2Coating Si-based anode, coating with sucrose, glucose, polydopamine and resorcinol formaldehyde resin as carbon source for carbonization coating, and selectively etching SiO with hydrofluoric acid (HF)2A sacrificial layer. However, this preparation method is complicated and expensive in process, is not easy to scale up, and is environmentally friendly in removing HF used for the sacrificial layer, requiring special precautions in handling. Meanwhile, the gaps cause fewer contact sites between the inner cathode particles and the outer carbon layer, and lithium ion transmission and electron transfer are limited。
