Description

Lithium iron phosphate coated lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode material and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium ion batteries, and particularly relates to a lithium iron phosphate coated lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode material, and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
At present, the positive electrode material is a key factor for limiting the high specific capacity of the lithium ion battery, and the lithium-rich manganese-based material has a discharge specific capacity which is much higher than that of conventional positive electrode materials such as a lithium cobalt oxide material, a nickel cobalt manganese ternary material and the like, and the cost is low, so that the positive electrode material can meet the market demand, and is widely studied as a very ideal positive electrode material of the lithium ion battery.
Although lithium-rich manganese-based materials have many advantages such as high specific capacity, low cost, environmental friendliness, etc., they also have some fatal drawbacks such as poor cycle performance, poor rate performance, poor conductivity, and serious voltage drop problems, etc., mainly due to structural transformation and interfacial side reactions of the lithium-rich manganese-based materials; based on this, how to improve the rate performance and the cycle stability of the lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode material has become an important point of research in recent years.
CN106229502a discloses a preparation method of a sulfur anion doped lithium-rich cathode material, which comprises the following steps: weighing a certain amount of nickel sulfate and manganese sulfate according to a molar ratio, dissolving the nickel sulfate and the manganese sulfate in deionized water, slowly adding a NaOH solution into the solution, and precipitating to obtain a mixed metal salt precipitate with a certain proportion; uniformly mixing a small amount of lithium sulfide powder, lithium salt powder and the mixed metal salt precipitate; then placing the powder into a muffle furnace, heating to 200-500 ℃ for presintering, and then heating to 600-1000 ℃ for calcining to obtain sintered powder; adding an activating agent into the sintered powder, activating, drying, placing in a muffle furnace, and sintering at 200-500 ℃ for 3-8 hours to obtain a sulfur anion doped lithium-rich anode material; however, the method has the advantages that the doping temperature is too high, so that the energy cost is increased, meanwhile, sulfur in the finally obtained positive electrode material is doped in bulk, the surface side reaction is less restrained, and partial capacity loss is caused by substitution of bulk doping relative to oxygen.
CN114649522a discloses a Mo-doped Fe 2 O 3 Cladding lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode material and preparation method thereof, and Mo-doped Fe obtained by cladding lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode material 2 O 3 The coated lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode material combines molybdenum doping and ferric oxide modification, and after double-effect modification, the cycle stability, the multiplying power performance, the initial discharge specific capacity and other electrochemical performances of the lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode material are improved; however, the method cannot form a uniform and compact coating layer, and has no obvious effect on the structural stability of the lithium-rich manganese-based material.
CN103904311a discloses a cathode material for lithium secondary batteries with high capacity, high charge-discharge efficiency and excellent rate capability, the inner layer of the surface-coated composite lithium-rich manganese-based cathode material provided by the method is a lithium-rich manganese-based material, the surface-coated composite layer is a lithium iron phosphate material, the lithium iron phosphate of the surface-coated layer is a new phase generated in the coating and compositing process, and the lithium source is from the lithium-rich manganese-based cathode material; according to the invention, lithium iron phosphate is coated on the surface of the lithium-rich manganese base to form a coating layer by mainly utilizing lithium of the lithium-rich manganese base through a water bath drying and annealing treatment mode, although the lithium iron phosphate is successfully coated on the surface of the lithium-rich manganese base; however, the "surplus" lithium in the lithium-rich manganese-based material is consumed, so that the lithium-rich manganese-based material is not rich any more, and the characteristic of high capacity is lost.
Therefore, in order to solve the above technical problems, development of a lithium iron phosphate coated lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode material having both high capacity and high stability is urgently needed.

Comparative application example 1 1300 80
Comparative application example 2 670 55
From the data in table 1, it can be seen that:
the cycle performance tests of the lithium ion batteries obtained in application examples 1 to 15 show that the cycle number of the lithium ion batteries with the capacity lower than 80% SOH is 1250-1700, and the 3C rate performance test shows that the capacity retention rate is 78-85%.
As can be seen from the comparison of the data of application example 1 and comparative application examples 1 to 2, the lithium ion battery provided in comparative application example 1 is not very poor in cycle performance and rate performance, but is difficult to use alone because the gram capacity of lithium iron phosphate is low, namely, only 143 mAh/g; the lithium ion battery provided in comparative application example 2 has poor cycle performance and rate capability, which indicates that the lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode material has poor effect when used alone; the lithium iron phosphate is taken as a shell layer, the lithium iron phosphate coated lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode material obtained by taking the lithium iron phosphate-rich manganese-based material as a core can realize synergistic effect, so that the cycle performance and the rate capability of the lithium ion battery prepared by the lithium iron phosphate coated lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode material are greatly improved, and the gram capacity of the obtained lithium iron phosphate coated lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode material is not lower than 300mAh/g.
Comparing the data of application example 1 and application examples 4 to 7, it can be further found that the particle size of the core lithium-rich manganese-based material is also a very critical parameter, and the too large or too small particle size can deteriorate the cycle performance and the rate performance of the finally prepared lithium ion battery.
Finally, it can be seen from the data of application example 1, application examples 8 to 11 and application examples 12 to 15 that the particle size of the shell layer lithium iron phosphate and the thickness of the shell layer are not within the preferred range defined in the present invention, and also the cycle performance and the rate performance of the lithium ion battery are reduced.
The applicant states that the present invention is described by the above examples as a lithium iron phosphate coated lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode material, and a preparation method and application thereof, but the present invention is not limited to the above examples, i.e., it does not mean that the present invention must be implemented depending on the above examples. It should be apparent to those skilled in the art that any modification of the present invention, equivalent substitution of raw materials for the product of the present invention, addition of auxiliary components, selection of specific modes, etc., falls within the scope of the present invention and the scope of disclosure.
