A coin cell was assembled in an argon-protected glove box using a lithium metal (sodium) sheet as the negative electrode, and then subjected to cell performance testing, with specific results shown in table 1.
Table 1 test results of different examples and comparative examples
Testing battery Conductivity of powder (S/cm) First circle coulombic efficiency (%) Capacity retention (%)
Example 1 0.117 90.5 91.2 (cycle 100 weeks)
Example 2 0.121 91.9 90.4 (cycle 100 weeks)
Example 3 0.127 91.5 87.3 (cycle 325 weeks)
Comparative example 1 0.019 80.3 61.5 (cycle 100 weeks)
Comparative example 2 0.088 89.7 69.2 (cycle 325 weeks)
Comparative example 3 0.087 86.7 85.4 (cycle 100 weeks)
Comparative example 4 0.072 71.3 76.5 (cycle 100 weeks)
Referring to Table 1 and FIG. 3, the test results of examples 1 to 3 and comparative example 1 show that the conductivity of the prepared powder can be maintained above 0.1S/cm after the carbon coating process of the invention, the initial coulomb efficiency and the capacity retention rate of 100 circles can reach above 90%, the cycle capacity retention rate of 325 circles is above 85%, the conductivity of the cathode material of comparative example 1 without carbon coating is about 0.02S/cm, the capacity retention rate after 100 circles is only 61.5, which indicates that the preparation method of the carbon tube coated cathode material provided by the invention can remarkably improve the conductivity and cycle performance of the cathode material; meanwhile, the particle size distribution (D50) of the positive electrode particles before and after coating in examples 1 to 3 was found to be uniform, (D90-D10)/D50 of 1.2, indicating that the carbon coating of the present invention had little effect on the particle size of the positive electrode particle powder.
FIG. 1 is a crystalline carbon-coated NCM prepared in example 1 613 The projection electron microscope photomicrograph of the material can show that the carbon coating structure with the ordered structure of the type of carbon tube exists, and the crystal lattice of the crystalline carbon material is discontinuous, which is related to the residual alkali corrosion action on the surface of the positive electrode material; FIG. 2 is a crystalline carbon-coated NCM obtained in example 2 811 Raman spectrum of the material. D peak (about 1330 cm) -1 Where) represents defects of carbon atom crystals (characteristic peaks of defective carbon), G peak (about 1580 cm) -1 Where) represents the in-plane stretching vibration (characteristic peak of crystalline carbon) of sp2 hybridization of carbon atoms, the intensity ratio of D peak to G peak of raman is generally used to react the order of the carbon material. From the view I d /I g The number of (2) is about 0.989, indicating that the ordered component of the synthesized carbon structure is comparable to the disordered component content; it can be seen from fig. 1 and fig. 2 that the corrosion of residual alkali on the surface of the positive electrode material can be controlled by the process control of the invention, so that the surface of the positive electrode material is ordered crystalline carbon with defects.
Comparative example 2 is a conventional carbon coating process, a carbon layer with continuous crystal lattice can be formed on the surface of the positive electrode material, but test results show that the battery sample of comparative example 2 has a capacity retention rate of only 69.2% after 325 cycles, and the battery sample of example 3 has a capacity retention rate of 87.3% after 325 cycles, which indicates that the defective ordered crystalline carbon layer has better stability than the conventional carbon coating layer, can better relieve the volume expansion of the positive electrode material in charge and discharge cycles, is not easy to break, and avoids the coating failure of the surface carbon layer.
In comparative example 3, benzene is used as a carbon source, the carbon-hydrogen ratio is 1, and from the test result, it can be seen that the electric conductivity of the powder coated by using benzene as the carbon source and the electric performance of the battery sample are reduced compared with the embodiment, which shows that the carbon source with high carbon-hydrogen ratio can obviously improve the electrochemical performance of the anode material coated by the carbon tube.
The difference between comparative example 4 and example 1 is that the radio frequency power supply is not turned on in the vapor deposition process, i.e. the carbon source gas is not subjected to plasma treatment, and the final prepared sample is tested, so that the powder conductivity and the first circle coulomb effect of the battery sample are both obviously reduced, and the introduction of plasma energy at a lower reaction temperature and a shorter reaction time can improve the vapor deposition efficiency and effect, and simultaneously has an enhancement effect on the adhesion and compactness of the carbon layer.
The above examples illustrate only a few embodiments of the invention, which are described in detail and are not to be construed as limiting the scope of the invention. It should be noted that it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that several variations and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the invention, which are all within the scope of the invention. Accordingly, the scope of protection of the present invention is to be determined by the appended claims.
