Background
The lithium ion battery has the advantages of high energy density, long cycle life and the like, and is widely applied to power supply systems such as portable electronic equipment, electric automobiles, energy storage power stations and the like, so that the society is continuously promoted to develop towards intellectualization and cleanliness. However, as the energy density of lithium batteries is continuously improved in the market, one of the more effective solutions at present is to improve the Ni content to prepare the high-nickel NCM ternary cathode material. However, with the increase of Ni content, the gas production, circulation and safety performance of the high-nickel NCM ternary positive electrode material are correspondingly deteriorated.
The nickel-cobalt-manganese ternary positive electrode material in the current market is mainly made of polycrystalline materials, is secondary particles formed by agglomerating a large number of primary micro-nano particles, has large surface area, can increase the contact area between the positive electrode and electrolyte, and improves the energy storage capacity and the charge-discharge rate of the battery, but in the circulation process of the battery, the electrolyte can infiltrate and erode the positive electrode material along gaps between the secondary particles, so that the generation of microcracks is aggravated due to volume expansion, and the lithium ion battery is more serious under the conditions of high voltage and high current charge-discharge, so that the lithium ion battery is attenuated too quickly in the subsequent circulation process. The high-nickel monocrystal ternary material is obtained by the growth of primary particles through high-temperature crystallization, has no particle aggregation and microcrack, has good mechanical properties, and almost does not generate microcrack in the charge-discharge cycle process, so that the cycle stability is better than that of a polycrystalline material, but the preparation of the monocrystal material requires higher sintering temperature, and the high temperature is easy to cause material overburning and grain boundary fusion, so that the initial capacity is greatly reduced.
Therefore, how to increase the first efficiency of the nickel monocrystal material, the discharge capacity of the material is close to that of the secondary particles under the condition of ensuring the charge capacity, and the gas production, circulation and safety performance of the material are superior to those of the secondary particles, so that the material becomes a bottleneck for developing monocrystal materials in the industry.
