Since the 21 st century, the shortage of energy and renewable problems have become the focus of growing attention, and the development of renewable energy and energy storage has become a critical issue. Lithium Ion Batteries (LIBs) are used as energy storage equipment, and are widely applied to the fields of mobile terminals, electric vehicles, energy storage power stations and the like due to the advantages of high working voltage, high energy density, small self-discharge rate, long cycle life, no memory effect, environmental friendliness and the like. Along with the development of technology, people put forward higher requirements on the aspects of safety, energy density, multiplying power performance and the like of lithium ion batteries.
The positive electrode material is one of key materials for determining the comprehensive performance of the lithium ion battery. Among the many successfully commercialized lithium ion battery cathode materials, nickel-based cathode materials, in particular nickel cobalt lithium manganate materials (NCM), show excellent comprehensive performance and higher cost performance by virtue of the synergistic effect of three elements, such as high specific capacity, high voltage, higher compaction density and excellent low-temperature performance, become a commercial hot spot of cathode materials and are a technical choice of power battery cells for electric vehicles.
With the increase of the high energy density demands of batteries in the market, nickel-based cathode materials are becoming increasingly new directions of industrialization interest. The nickel-based positive electrode material has the advantages that due to the high content of nickel components, the layered phase, the spinel phase and the rock salt phase are subjected to severe phase transition in the repeated charge and discharge process, the phase transition process brings a series of problems of cracks generated by material particles, release of oxygen and partial inactivation of the material, and a new interface generated by the cracks and electrolyte undergo side reaction to generate gas, increase interface impedance and the like, so that the capacity is finally attenuated rapidly in the circulation process and serious potential safety hazards are finally caused. In particular, in the thermal runaway process of the battery, decomposition of the positive electrode material and release of oxygen are considered to be main causes of ignition and explosion of the power battery. The stability of the positive electrode material is improved, the direct contact between the electrode material and the electrolyte is reduced, and the side reaction of the electrolyte is inhibited, so that the interface structure stability and the cycle stability of the positive electrode material are improved, and the safety of the power battery can be obviously improved.
CN 115132984A discloses a composite positive electrode material, a preparation method and application thereof. The composite positive electrode material consists of a positive electrode material, a conductive polymer coated on the surface of the positive electrode material in a composite manner and a solid electrolyte. The composite positive electrode material takes the positive electrode material as a core, the conductive polymer and the solid electrolyte of the conductive ions are coated on the surface of the positive electrode material particles, the solid electrolyte on the surface can enhance the ionic conductivity of the material, the problem of low ionic transmission efficiency between the positive electrode material particles is solved, the interface impedance between the solid electrolyte and the electrodes is reduced, in addition, the conductive polymer is used as a continuous coating layer to form a complete conductive network, the insulating solid electrolyte does not form a complete coating layer on the surface of the positive electrode material particles, and only the surface is coated in a particle form, and meanwhile, the problem of poor conductivity of the traditional electrolyte coated positive electrode composite material is solved. The preparation method of the composite positive electrode material comprises the following steps: dissolving a solid electrolyte, a positive electrode material and a conductive polymer in an organic solvent to obtain a mixed solution; and (3) injecting the mixed solution into spray drying equipment, and drying and granulating the mixed solution through high-temperature airflow spraying to obtain the composite anode material. The continuous and complete conductive network formed on the surface of the material particles by the conductive polymer in the composite material can lead to the reduction of the ion and electron transmission efficiency of the composite material, thereby affecting the rate capability of the battery cell. However, the composite positive electrode material does not improve the thermal stability of the nickel-based material for relieving the high delithiation state of oxygen release and improving the material.
