Subsequently, the coated slurry was transferred to a vacuum oven at 110 ℃ for drying for 6 hours, and then the dried electrode material was rolled by a roll mill and dried in the vacuum oven at 120 ℃ for 12 hours. Taking out the dried electrode film, punching the sheet, weighing,and transferring the standard pole piece into a glove box for assembling the battery. Wherein, the electrolyte component that the equipment battery used is: 1M LiPF 6 Lithium salt and DMC + EC solvent.

And (3) carrying out alternating current impedance test, constant current charge and discharge test under different multiplying powers and cycle performance stability test under 1C multiplying power on the assembled battery. Wherein, 1C =200mA · g -1 。
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the following beneficial effects:
and (I) because the boric acid in a molten state has certain fluidity and is similar to glue, the nano-scale LMFP particles are adhered on the surface of the micron-scale NCM secondary sphere more tightly. Small amount of residual fluorine surfactant on surface and LMFP/LiBO 2 The formed dense coating layer prevents the electrolyte from directly contacting with the NCM surface, and inhibits the surface interface performance from deteriorating. In addition, liBO formed by reaction of boric acid and residual lithium on the surface 2 Not only reduces the residual alkali on the surface of NCM, but also reduces the residual alkali on the surface of the NCM due to LiBO 2 Good lithium ion conductivity, so that a denser LMFP/LiBO is formed on the surface of the NMC 2 The composite coating layer does not affect the charge transfer resistance, namely the rate performance of the material.
And (II) the capacity retention rate of the battery obtained by the composite modified material after 100 cycles is improved by more than 20% compared with the performance of the battery prepared by an unmodified blank NCM sample.

As can be seen from Table 1, when the compounding ratio of LMFP and NCM is the same (2. In addition, alternating current impedance analysis of the sample shows that the charge transfer impedance value of the sample obtained by adding the fluorine surfactant and the boric acid as auxiliary is obviously reduced compared with that of a blank group, which shows that on one hand, the LMFP is more uniformly dispersed and coated on the surface of the NCM secondary sphere, and meanwhile, after the boric acid is added, an ultrathin lithium ion conductive LiBO2 layer formed at a gap between the NCM and the LMFP is beneficial to lithium ion conduction and reduces interface charge transfer impedance.
As can be seen from a and b in FIG. 1, the blank NCM secondary sphere size is about 10-12 μm, and the primary particle size is 300-600nm; as can be seen from c and d in FIG. 1, LFMP dispersed by the fluorosurfactant is uniformly coated on the NCM and the pores are LiBO 2 The thin layer of material is coated, which is beneficial to improving the conductivity of the material, resisting the corrosion of electrolyte and improving the cycling stability, and can be seen from the improvement of the subsequent electrochemical performance. Fig. 2 is an XRD spectrum of the NCM complex sample directly coated with LFMP and the NCM sample coated with fluorosurfactant and boric acid-assisted LMFP, and a comparison shows that the diffraction peak positions of the complex coated sample and the LMFP directly coated sample are substantially the same, which indicates that the addition of a small amount of fluorosurfactant and boric acid does not cause impurity generation and does not affect the peak positions of NCM and LMFP. FIG. 3 is a graph of the cycling performance of blank NCM, LFMP and fluorosurfactant, boric acid-assisted LMFP coated NCM samples, comparing to find a significant improvement in LMFP coated NCM over blank NCM samples while LFMP coated NCM dispersed with the addition of fluorosurfactant to assist inThe cycle performance of the latter stage of the boric acid treatment is obviously improved compared with that of LMFP/NCM, which probably leads LMFP to be more uniformly coated on the NCM due to the fluorine surfactant, and simultaneously leads the cycle performance to be further improved due to the electrolyte corrosion resistance of the fluorine surfactant and LiBO 2. In addition, the DSC differential thermal analysis curve in FIG. 4 shows that the thermal runaway temperature of the composite coating sample B/LMFP @ F-NCM can reach 227 ℃, which is obviously improved compared with the blank NCM sample at 220 ℃, and this shows that the composite coating sample has more excellent thermal safety performance.
