In addition, positive electrode materials of the first to nineteenth samples are respectively manufactured into lithium ion batteries by adopting the same preparation method, and the prepared lithium ion batteries are respectively subjected to a gram capacity test, a high-temperature cycle performance test, an impedance test, a CO 2 release test and a multiplying power discharge performance test, and the tests are briefly described as follows:
Gram capacity test: at 25 ℃, constant-current charge and discharge (0.1C) is adopted to study the charge and discharge performance of the material, and the voltage range is 3.0V-4.55V; and calculating the first charge and discharge efficiency according to the charge and discharge gram capacity.
High temperature cycle performance test: at 45 ℃, charging the button cell to 4.60V according to a constant current and a constant voltage of 0.1C, cutting off the current to 0.05C, discharging to 3.0V according to a constant current of 0.1C, and calculating the capacity retention rate at 50 weeks after 80 times of charging and discharging according to the circulation, wherein the calculation formula is as follows:
the cycle capacity retention rate (%) = (cycle discharge capacity at 50 th cycle/first cycle discharge capacity) ×100% at 50 th cycle.
And (3) testing the rate discharge performance: at 25 ℃, the button cell is charged to 4.60V according to a constant current and a constant voltage of 0.1C, the cut-off current is 0.05C, then the button cell is discharged to 3.0V according to a constant current of 0.1C, and the discharge capacity at the moment is recorded to be the initial capacity. And then charging the button cell to 4.60V according to a constant current and constant voltage of 0.1C, wherein the cut-off current is 0.05C, then discharging to 3.0V according to a constant current of 2.0C, and recording the discharge capacity at the moment, namely the discharge capacity.

The test results of the gram capacity test, the high temperature cycle performance test, the impedance test, and the CO 2 release test are shown in table 2.
Table 2 results of each of samples one through nineteen
From the test results of table 1, the doping of vanadium and the coating of lithium tantalate in the positive electrode materials of samples one to nineteen were confirmed. The difference between the eighth and nineteenth samples is the presence or absence of doping with vanadium, and it can be seen from fig. 1 and 4 that doping with vanadium does not significantly change the bulk structure of lithium cobaltate. The difference between the fifteen and nineteen samples is that there is a coating of lithium tantalate, and it can be seen from fig. 2 and 4 that the coating of lithium tantalate can significantly improve the surface stability of lithium cobaltate. The samples eight and eighteen are different in the presence of the coating of lithium tantalate, and the samples fifteen and eighteen are different in the presence of the doping of vanadium, and as can be seen from the combination of fig. 1 to 3, the doping of vanadium and the coating of lithium tantalate have a synergistic effect, so that the bulk stability and the surface stability of lithium cobaltate are obviously improved.
The positive electrode materials of samples one to ten were compared, except for the doping amount of vanadium. As shown by combining the test results in table 2, when the doping amount of vanadium is 1-7wt%, the cycle capacity retention rate can be improved well, and the DCR growth rate in the cycle charge-discharge process is suppressed, because the high valence vanadium element can expand the interlayer spacing, promote the lithium ion diffusion rate, promote the stability of the bulk phase of lithium cobaltate in the cycle process, and is particularly expressed in that the number of particle cracks in the cycle process is reduced. However, the doping amount of the vanadium is excessive, namely, the doping amount of the vanadium is more than 7wt%, the improvement amplitude of the cycle stability is gradually reduced, and the vanadium is taken as an inactive element and does not have electrochemical activity, and occupies main element sites, so that the excessive vanadium doping causes excessive capacity loss of lithium cobaltate, and the energy density requirement cannot be met.
The positive electrode materials of the eleven to seventeen comparative samples were different in the coating amount of lithium tantalate. According to the test results in Table 2, the lithium tantalate coating is added on the surface of the lithium cobaltate, and when the coating amount is 0.3-1.5 wt%, the surface stability of the lithium cobaltate is obviously improved, the corrosion of the electrolyte to the surface of the lithium cobaltate is inhibited, meanwhile, the oxidation of cathode oxygen anions into oxygen in the cyclic charge and discharge process and the reaction with the electrolyte to generate carbon dioxide are inhibited, and the release amount of the carbon dioxide is obviously reduced, so that the lithium tantalate coating has obvious inhibition effect on the generation of carbon dioxide and the growth of DCR in the cyclic process, and the cyclic capacity retention rate is further improved. However, the increase of the coating amount of lithium tantalate as a coating layer is visually represented by the increase of the thickness of the coating layer, and when the coating thickness is too thick, the initial impedance of lithium cobaltate is increased, thereby preventing the smooth progress of the lithium ion intercalation and deintercalation process and causing adverse effects such as low-temperature performance reduction.
The difference between the sample seven and the sample eighteen is that the lithium tantalate is coated or not, the difference between the sample fifteen and the sample eighteen is that the vanadium doping or not, and the test result in combination with the table 2 shows that the doping of the vanadium and the coating of the lithium tantalate have a synergistic effect on the improvement of the performance of the lithium cobaltate, inhibit the collapse of the structure and the cracking of particles of the lithium cobaltate in the circulating process, and form a protective barrier between the lithium cobaltate and the electrolyte at the same time, thereby avoiding the corrosion of the surface of the lithium cobaltate caused by the direct contact of the liquid electrolyte and the lithium cobaltate, improving the stability of the traditional lithium battery in the circulating process, and finally realizing the purpose of prolonging the service life of the battery core under a high-voltage system.
The foregoing description is only illustrative of the invention and is not to be construed as limiting the invention. Various modifications and variations of the present invention will be apparent to those skilled in the art.
