At present, the main development direction of the ternary material is the development trend of high nickel and low cobalt, single crystallization and high voltage, however, the ternary material with high nickel and low cobalt has Ni under the condition of high cut-off voltage 4+ The chemical structure is unstable under the deep charge and discharge condition, and the layered structure is converted into a spinel structure; the ternary material with high nickel and low cobalt also has the problems of mixed discharge of lithium and nickel, unstable TM (transition metal) -O bond, release of lattice oxygen in the charge and discharge process, and the like.
At present, the problems are solvedThe modification means of the ternary material is mainly realized by cladding and doping, wherein the doping can be divided into metal ion doping and nonmetal ion doping, the metal ion doping is replaced according to the difference of ion radius, the ion positions are also different, for example, the doping ion radius is larger than that of the replacing ion, and the layered crystal structure after stable delithiation can effectively improve Li at the same time + Is a migration rate of (a); the doped ions occupy the transition metal position, so that the layered structure of NCM can be effectively inhibited from being turned into a spinel structure during deep lithium removal. The non-metal ion is doped with O 2- Ions of similar ionic radius, e.g. F - 、B 3+ To replace O 2- The sites form more stable Li-F bonds and B-O bonds, stabilize the NCM crystal structure and prevent the precipitation of lattice oxygen. The ternary material coating modification can achieve different modification effects according to different coating materials, such as polypyrrole, graphene and the like coating a layer of electronic conductive material with nanometer thickness, so that the electronic conductivity of the ternary material can be improved; the coating of a layer of stable oxide can effectively prevent the residual lithium on the surface of the material from reacting with moisture and carbon dioxide in the air and also can protect the lithium from being corroded by electrolyte; the lithium ion conductive material is coated, and the lithium ion conductivity of the material can be remarkably improved due to the three-dimensional lithium ion diffusion channel and the stable internal structure.
