From the above, it is understood that a high-performance single crystal positive electrode material can be obtained by the method of the present invention, and excellent rate capability and cycle performance are exhibited.
Compared with the comparative example 9, the cobalt-free cathode material synthesized by the method disclosed by the invention has the advantages that the rate performance is improved by 2% and the cycle retention rate is improved by 2% compared with the 4C rate performance of the commercially available cobalt-free cathode material, the crystal structure grown by the method for obtaining fine grains is stable, and the lithium ion dynamics is excellent.
Comparing examples 1-6 with comparative example 1, it can be seen that when the fracture strength of the precursor used is lower than the target value, the collapse of the precursor mechanism during the synthesis process causes the synthesized Li/Ni positive electrode material to be unfavorable for the kinetic process of lithium ion transport, and thus the rate performance is poor, and when the fracture strength of the precursor used is higher than the target value, the synthesis process is unfavorable for Li when compared with comparative example 2 + Resulting in poor conductivity of the resultant cathode material, thereby affecting Li + The rate capability becomes worse.
Compared with the comparative example 3, the comparison of the examples 1 to 6 shows that the fracture strength of the grown crystal grains synthesized in the second step is lower than a target value, the grains are too fine and fragile, and the grains are difficult to sinter into single crystal materials in the subsequent sintering process, so that the cycle performance is poor, and large grains with too high fracture strength cannot be generated due to the fact that the grain size of the primary grains of the polycrystalline anode material is too small, so that the method is not analyzed;
comparing examples 1-6 with comparative example 4, it can be seen that the cobalt-free cathode crystal grain synthesized in the second step has a ratio of (003) characteristic diffraction peak intensity to (101) characteristic diffraction peak intensity and a ratio of (003) characteristic diffraction peak intensity to (104) characteristic diffraction peak intensity lower than a target value, and the c axis of the synthesized cathode material is shorter, so that the subsequent lithium supplement process is influenced, and the finally synthesized cathode material has fewer migratable lithium ions, slow kinetics and poor rate capability.
Compared with the comparative example 5, the examples 1-6 show that the finally synthesized cobalt-free positive electrode material has too low fracture strength, which is caused by the fact that a large amount of weak-binding-force aggregates exist in the synthesized positive electrode material, so that the structure is damaged after the pole piece is rolled by a subsequent roller, the cycle performance is poor, and the multiplying power is poor, and compared with the comparative example 6, the synthesized cobalt-free positive electrode material has the defects that the fracture strength is increased, the multiplying power is poor, which is caused by the fact that the grain size of the synthesized cobalt-free positive electrode material is large, the metal segregation process exists, and the performance is poor.
Comparing examples 1-6 with comparative example 7, it can be seen that when the cobalt-free anode synthesized in the third step is synthesized, the ratio of the (003) characteristic diffraction peak intensity to the (101) characteristic diffraction peak intensity in XRD is higher than the target value, and the synthesized anode material c-axis is large, so that the structure collapse is caused in the subsequent battery cycle process, especially under the high-rate charge and discharge, the structure collapse is more serious, and therefore the rate performance is deteriorated, and compared with comparative example 8, it can be seen that the ratio of the (003) characteristic diffraction peak intensity to the (104) characteristic diffraction peak intensity is lower than the target value, so that the a-axis in the synthesized anode material crystal structure is too low, and an irreversible phase transition process exists in the battery cycle process, so that the electrochemical performance is deteriorated.
Comparing examples 1-7 with comparative example 10, it can be seen that the material prepared by using sulfuric acid has poor cycle performance due to the introduction of S impurities caused by the use of sulfuric acid and the shuttle effect of S.
