Description

Negative electrode material, negative plate comprising negative electrode material and battery
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of lithium ion batteries, in particular to a negative electrode material, a negative plate comprising the negative electrode material and a battery.
Background
Lithium ion batteries are widely used in energy storage systems due to their advantages of high energy density, long cycle life, environmental friendliness, and the like. The development level of the cathode material as an important component of the lithium ion battery restricts the development of the lithium ion battery. Graphite is widely used as a negative electrode material for lithium ion batteries because of its advantages of reversible lithium intercalation/deintercalation capacity, high cycling stability, low and stable discharge platform, abundant resources and the like. But the low theoretical capacity of graphite (372 mA h g) -1 ) The pursuit of the modern society for the high-capacity lithium ion battery cannot be met. Therefore, the development of new high capacity anode materials is one of the major efforts in the field of current anode materials.
Silicon (Si) up to 4200mA h g -1 The capacity of the lithium ion battery is expected to become a next-generation commercialized high-performance negative electrode material for the lithium ion battery. However, the large volume expansion of Si materials during cycling can lead to pulverization of the materials, collapse of the electrode structure, and repeated formation of SEI films, ultimately resulting in low coulombic efficiency and rapid decay of capacity. These problems severely restrict the practical application of Si materials as anode materials.
In order to solve the problems, the industry prepares a silicon-carbon composite negative electrode material with high energy density and high cycle stability by compounding nano silicon, graphite and pyrolytic carbon. Although graphite and pyrolytic carbon relieve the volume expansion of silicon to a great extent, the conventional pyrolytic carbon coating can deform in volume along with the expansion of silicon, pores or cracks are easy to generate, a new SEI film is generated by contact with an electrolyte, and the pyrolytic carbon coating can continuously crack to expose new sites along with the continuous progress of the charging and discharging process, so that the repeated formation of the SEI film is caused, and finally, the low coulombic efficiency and the rapid capacity attenuation are caused.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention provides a negative electrode material, a negative electrode plate comprising the negative electrode material and a battery, aiming at the problem of capacity attenuation caused by volume expansion of the existing silicon-carbon composite material in the circulating process. The cathode material has a core-shell structure and comprises a shell layer and a core, wherein the core comprises a silicon-based material and a porous carbon material, the silicon-based material is distributed in pores of the porous carbon material, and the pores provide buffer space for the volume expansion of the silicon-based material; the shell layer comprises carbon nanofibers and titanium dioxide, can effectively buffer the volume expansion of the silicon-based material, avoids the direct contact of the silicon-based material and electrolyte, and can improve the structural stability of the cathode material; and the titanium dioxide can keep small volume change (about 4%) in the process of lithium ion de-intercalation, which is beneficial to maintaining higher interface stability, and the battery assembled by the cathode material has excellent cycle stability and lower expansion rate.
The purpose of the invention is realized by the following technical scheme:
an anode material, wherein the anode material comprises a shell layer and a core, and the shell layer comprises carbon nanofibers and titanium dioxide; the core comprises a silicon-based material and a porous carbon material.
According to the embodiment of the invention, the shell layer is coated on the surface of the core to form a core-shell structure; illustratively, the shell layer partially coats the core surface, or the shell layer completely coats the core surface.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, the porous carbon material has a specific surface area BET of 200m 2 /g~3000m 2 A ratio of/g, e.g. 200m 2 /g、400m 2 /g、600m 2 /g、800m 2 /g、1000m 2 /g、1200m 2 /g、1400m 2 /g、1600m 2 /g、1800m 2 /g、2000m 2 /g、2200m 2 /g、2400m 2 /g、2600m 2 /g、2800m 2 /g、3000m 2 (iv)/g or any point in the range consisting of any two of the endpoints. The porous carbon material has a too low specific surface area (e.g., less than 200 m) 2 In/g), the content of the deposited silicon-based material is also reduced, and the specific capacity of the obtained anode material is also low; the porous carbon material has too high a specific surface area (e.g. more than 3000 m) 2 In/g), the deposited silicon-based material cannot fill all pores, resulting in a large specific surface area of the negative electrode material, which in turn leads to low first efficiency.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, the porous carbon material has a pore size of 0.5nm to 2 μm, for example, 0.5nm, 1nm, 10nm, 20nm, 40nm, 50nm, 100nm, 200nm, 300nm, 400nm, 500nm, 600nm, 700nm, 800nm, 900nm, 1 μm, 2 μm or any point in the range of the above endpoints. The aperture of the porous carbon material is too small, the deposition difficulty of the silicon-based material is increased, and the low silicon content is easily caused, so that the specific capacity of the negative electrode material is influenced; the porous carbon material has an excessively large pore diameter, and the pores cannot be filled, resulting in a large specific surface area, resulting in a low first effect.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, the degree of graphitization of the porous carbon material is 30% to 100%, for example 30%, 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, 100% or any point in the range of the above two endpoints. When the degree of graphitization of the porous carbon material is less than 30%, the compacted density and conductivity thereof are low, thereby affecting the volumetric energy density and rate performance of the battery.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, the median particle diameter Dv50 of the porous carbon material is 5 μm to 10 μm. For example, 5 μm, 6 μm, 7 μm, 8 μm, 9 μm, 10 μm, or any point in the range between the two endpoints. The median diameter Dv50 of the porous carbon material is too low (for example, less than 5 μm), the specific surface area of the porous carbon material is large, and the side reactions in the battery are more, which affects the battery performance. If the median diameter Dv50 of the porous carbon material is too large (e.g., greater than 10 μm), the gaps between the particles are large when the porous carbon material is stacked on the electrode sheet, which may cause a decrease in the volumetric energy density of the battery.
According to an embodiment of the invention, the silicon-based material has a median particle diameter Dv50 of between 0.5nm and 10 μm. For example, 0.5nm, 1nm, 3nm, 5nm, 20nm, 40nm, 60nm, 80nm, 100nm, 200nm, 300nm, 400nm, 500nm, 600nm, 700nm, 800nm, 900nm, 1 μm, 2 μm, 3 μm, 4 μm, 5 μm, 6 μm, 7 μm, 8 μm, 9 μm, 10 μm or any of the ranges defined by the above two endpoints. The median diameter Dv50 of the silicon-based material is too large (for example, larger than 10 μm), and the outer coating is not enough to buffer the large volume expansion of silicon, so that the volume expansion is more serious, and the stability of the structure of the cathode material is not facilitated. The silicon-based material has a median particle size Dv50 that is too small (e.g., less than 5 nm) to be deposited into the pores of the porous carbon material.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, the silicon-based material includes at least one of silicon-containing materials such as silicon oxide materials (SiOx, 0<x <2), silicon carbon materials, silicon materials, and the like.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, the silicon-based material comprises a pyrolysis product of one or more of monosilane, disilane, chlorosilane, and chloromethylsilane.

When the thickness of the shell layer is too thin (such as less than 20 nm), the volume expansion of the silicon-based material is not sufficiently relieved; when the thickness of the shell layer is too thick (such as more than 40 nm), the difficulty of lithium ion deintercalation on the surface of the material is increased, the deintercalation of lithium ions is influenced, and the capacity is reduced.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, the carbon nanofibers have a diameter of 10nm to 200nm. For example, 10nm, 40nm, 80nm, 120nm, 160nm, 200nm, or any point in the range between the two endpoints. When the diameter of the carbon nanofiber is too large (such as larger than 200 nm), the distance of the lithium ion deintercalation process is increased, and the rapid charge and discharge are not facilitated.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, the carbon nanofibers have a length of 100nm to 2 μm. For example, 100nm, 400nm, 600nm, 800nm, 900nm, 1 μm, 2 μm, or any point in the range between the two endpoints. The carbon nanofibers are too short (e.g., less than 100 nm) to form a complete conductive network structure; if the length of the carbon nanofiber is too long (e.g., greater than 2 μm), the carbon nanofiber may be densely wound on the surface of the core, which may affect the transmission of electrons and lithium ions.
According to an embodiment of the present invention, the carbon nanofibers coated on the surface of the core are not densely packed but have more pores, and when the titanium dioxide is coated, it is distributed on the gaps and the surface of the carbon nanofibers to form a mixed coating layer including the carbon nanofibers and the titanium dioxide. That is, the titanium dioxide is distributed on the gaps and surfaces of the carbon nanofibers to form a mixed coating layer including the carbon nanofibers and the titanium dioxide.
According to an embodiment of the invention, the mass of the core is 40% to 65% of the total mass of the anode material, such as 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60% or 65%.

According to the embodiment of the invention, the titanium dioxide has a high lithium deintercalation potential, generally 1.7V, can participate in the formation of SEI film and stably exists under the working voltage of the negative electrode, so that the interface property of the negative electrode is continuously and effectively improved. However, the lithium-releasing potential of other inorganic oxides (such as alumina) is relatively low, usually at-0.4V, and lithium is released and released along with the charging and discharging processes of the negative electrode, so that the formed product lithium-aluminum alloy can generate side reaction with the electrolyte and is easy to pulverize, and the effect of improving the surface property of the negative electrode is limited.

The negative electrode materials of the above examples and comparative examples were assembled into button half cells for testing, and the specific manufacturing method was as follows:
(1) Mixing the prepared negative electrode material, artificial graphite, superP, sodium carboxymethylcellulose and styrene butadiene rubber according to a mass ratio of 46.5;
(2) Coating the negative electrode slurry obtained in the step (1) on copper foil, drying in an oven at 80 ℃, and then transferring to a vacuum oven at 100 ℃ for drying for 12 hours to obtain the copper foil with the surface density of about 7.4mg/cm 2 The negative electrode sheet of (1);
(3) Under a dry environment, the negative plate in the step (2) is arranged at a position of about 1.2g/cm 3 Compacting, rolling, and then preparing a negative electrode wafer with the diameter of 12mm by using a sheet punching machine;
(4) In a glove box, the negative electrode wafer in the step (3) is taken as a working electrode, a metal lithium sheet is taken as a counter electrode, a polyethylene diaphragm with the thickness of 20 mu m is taken as an isolating membrane, and electrolyte is added to assemble a button type half cell;
(5) The performance of the half-cell button was tested using a blue electricity (LAND) test system at a test temperature of 25 ℃, in particular: embedding lithium to 0.005V by using a current of 0.1mA, standing for 10min, embedding lithium to 0.005V by using a current of 0.05mA, standing for 10min, then removing lithium to 1.5V by using a current of 0.1mA to obtain a primary lithium embedding and removing capacity, dividing the primary lithium embedding and removing capacity by the mass of the negative electrode material in the negative electrode wafer to obtain the gram capacity of the negative electrode material, measuring the thickness of the pole piece after 200 cycles, and dividing the difference value of the thickness and the initial thickness by the initial thickness to obtain the expansion rate of the thickness of the pole piece, wherein the test results are shown in Table 2.
Table 2 results of performance tests of button half-cells of examples and comparative examples
Figure BDA0003984140620000141
As can be seen from Table 2, the gram capacities of the half-cells prepared in examples 1 to 5 were all 1120 to 1340mA hr g -1 In between, the capacity retention rate after 200 cycles is more than 90%, and the thickness expansion rate of the pole piece after 200 cycles is less than 10%. The gram capacity, capacity retention rate and electrode sheet thickness expansion rate of the half-cells prepared in comparative examples 1 to 3 and examples 6 to 7 are greatly different from each other.
The capacity retention rate of the half-cell of comparative example 1 and comparative example 2 after 200 cycles is greatly reduced, and the expansion rate of the pole piece is greatly increased, mainly because the negative electrode material of comparative example 1 has inner carbon coating and outer titanium dioxide coating, but the volume of the silicon-based material expands along with the progress of the charging and discharging process, the inner carbon coating is easy to generate pores and cracks, thereby indirectly causing the volume deformation of the titanium dioxide, while the titanium dioxide coating layer in the negative electrode material of comparative example 2 can generate the volume deformation along with the silicon expansion, the coating layers of both comparative examples are easy to generate pores or cracks, the repeated formation of an SEI film is easy to cause the capacity attenuation, and the expansion rate of the pole piece is increased. The half-cell prepared in comparative example 3 has low capacity retention rate and large expansion rate of the pole piece because the coating of the outer layer carbon nanofiber is not dense, a plurality of pores exist, electrolyte can enter through the pores to directly contact with silicon to form an SEI film, and the SEI film is repeatedly formed along with the charging and discharging, so that the capacity is attenuated, and the expansion rate of the pole piece is increased.
Compared with comparative examples 1 to 3, the half-cell prepared in example 6 has improved capacity retention rate and reduced expansion rate of the electrode plate, but compared with examples 1 to 5, the capacity retention rate and the expansion rate of the electrode plate are reduced, mainly because the content of the carbon fiber in the coating layer is too low, so that the thickness of the coating layer is too low, the coating layer with low thickness is not enough to inhibit the volume expansion of silicon, and cracks occur along with the continuous charging and discharging process, so that the capacity is reduced, and the expansion rate is increased; the half-cell prepared in example 7 has improved capacity retention rate and reduced pole piece expansion rate compared with those of comparative examples 1 to 3, but has reduced capacity retention rate and increased pole piece expansion rate compared with those of examples 1 to 5, mainly because the content of titanium dioxide is too low, the thickness of the outer coating layer is too low, and the volume expansion of silicon cannot be effectively inhibited, so that the capacity is continuously reduced along with the large volume expansion generated in the lithium deintercalation process.
The embodiments of the present invention have been described above. However, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment. 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.
