Technical Field

Lithium ion batteries have been widely used in 3C products such as mobile devices, notebooks, and electric vehicle products due to their advantages such as high specific energy, excellent cycle performance, and environmental protection.
With the improvement of government requirements on energy density and endurance mileage of power batteries of electric vehicles, the requirements of the power batteries on anode materials are also continuously improved, and the key points of the domestic power battery market are gradually closed to high-nickel materials such as 811. At present, the domestic nickelic material is mainly pushed by secondary spherical particles of fine crystal grain agglomerated layers.
However, the conventional secondary spherical particles still have problems affecting the performance of the electrical properties: 1) the surface of the secondary ball particles can be completely coated, but the secondary ball is not easy to coat, so that the side reaction between the electrolyte and the material is difficult to inhibit during high-voltage charge and discharge; 2) gaps exist among primary particles of the secondary spheres, so that the overall electron and ion transmission of the secondary sphere particles is poor; 3) the traditional secondary spherical particles have poor internal firmness, and are easy to generate spherical crushing in the rolling process of a pole piece, so that the side reaction between a material and electrolyte is increased, and the cycling stability of a battery is poor; 4) secondary ball materials, particularly high nickel materials, have a lot of surface side reactions, which easily cause battery flatulence, thus causing negative effects on the safety of the battery. The NCM523 and NCM622 ternary materials with single crystal morphology in the current market show excellent performance in the aspect of safety, and have the advantages of long cycle life, high voltage resistance, high compaction density and the like.
