Preparation method and application of nickel-cobalt-manganese ternary cathode material
Technical Field

The positive electrode material is the main limiting factor of the electrochemical performance of the lithium battery, and the material property of the positive electrode material directly determines the energy density, the service life and the safety of the battery, thereby influencing the comprehensive performance of the battery. Meanwhile, the proportion of the anode material in the cost of the lithium battery material is 30-40%, and the cost directly determines the overall cost of the battery, so that the anode material has a significant effect in the lithium battery, and the development trend of the lithium battery industry is directly led.
Currently, the mainstream commercial lithium ion battery cathode material comprises a lithium iron phosphate, lithium manganate and nickel cobalt manganese ternary cathode material. The ternary cathode material has the advantages of high and low temperature performance, high energy density and excellent cycle performance, and occupies the leading position of the cathode material, and the research and the leading technical changes in the fields of high nickel and high voltage are revolutionary. With the improvement of the standard of new energy automobiles on endurance mileage, the traditional lithium iron phosphate power battery gradually gives way to the ternary positive electrode material battery.
The high price of cobalt in the ternary material can increase the cost of the battery, while the low-cobalt high-nickel material is the main flow direction, but with the increase of the nickel content and the reduction of the cobalt content, the problem of poor cycle stability of the material becomes the biggest problem, the serious cation mixed discharge phenomenon can cause the rapid deterioration of the thermal stability and the structural stability of the material, and irreversible phase change accumulation can cause the defects of low first charge-discharge efficiency, low cycle life and the like. The reduction of intrinsic conductivity, stability and service life of the material caused by the cation mixed-discharging effect becomes a difficult point which must be solved by the market of the current ternary cathode material.
Although supported by clear market demands, the ternary cathode material has a serious cation mixed-discharging effect and the problems of irreversible phase change and material microcracks in the circulating process, so that the rate capability and the circulating stability of the ternary material are reduced. In addition, due to the fact that the prices of lithium and cobalt are high, the price of cobalt is unstable in recent years, the sudden rise and fall amplitude can reach 200%, and the ternary cathode material faces the influence of intrinsic characteristics of materials and the price of raw materials.

Through a two-stage high-temperature sintering calcination mode, the precursor is beneficial to synthesizing the positive electrode material with a layered structure with good orderliness in the pre-sintering stage, and the Li of the synthesized positive electrode material is determined in the high-temperature calcination stage+/Ni2+Degree of shuffling and crystal structure integrity. As is clear from the microstructure of the NCM811 cathode material shown in fig. 2, the NCM811 cathode material is formed by agglomerating and stacking primary particles. The secondary particles are agglomerated into spherical particles with the diameter of about 6 mu m, an electrode pole piece is manufactured by screened uniform powder to carry out electrochemical performance test, the multiplying power test result is shown in figure 3, and the battery capacity retention rate of the NCM622 and NCM811 material under the multiplying power of 5C reaches more than 65% under the state of 1C, and the retention rate under the 10C reaches about 40% under the state of 1C by carrying out charging and discharging test of different multiplying powers on the activated button battery. Under the low-rate (1C) charging condition after the high-rate charge and discharge, the battery capacity is maintained to be about 93 percent (NCM 811) and 99 percent (NCM 622) of the initial 1C, and the structure of the battery is kept stable in the high-current charge and discharge process. This benefits from the complete crystal structure resulting from the staged calcination procedure and the ion diffusion channels that remain during the precursor pre-firing stage.

Any modification, equivalent replacement, or improvement made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
