Abstract
Description
本発明は、二次電池用正極活物質及びその製造方法に関する。 The present invention relates to a positive electrode active material for a secondary battery and a method for producing the same.
リチウムイオン電池等の二次電池は、非水電解質電池の1種であり、携帯電話、デジタルカメラ、ノートPC、ハイブリッド自動車、電気自動車等広い分野に利用されている。リチウムイオン電池は、正極材料としてリチウム金属酸化物を用い、負極材料としてグラファイトなどの炭素材を用いるものが主流となっている。 A secondary battery such as a lithium ion battery is a kind of non-aqueous electrolyte battery, and is used in a wide range of fields such as a mobile phone, a digital camera, a notebook PC, a hybrid vehicle, and an electric vehicle. Lithium ion batteries mainly use lithium metal oxide as a positive electrode material and a carbon material such as graphite as a negative electrode material.
この正極材料としては、コバルト酸リチウム(LiCoO2)、マンガン酸リチウム(LiMnO2)、リン酸鉄リチウム(LiFePO4)、ケイ酸鉄リチウム(Li2FeSiO4)等が知られている。このうち、LiFePO4やLi2FeSiO4等は、オリビン構造を有し、高容量のリチウムイオン電池用正極材料として有用であり、特にLi2FeSiO4等のいわゆるオリビン型シリケート化合物は、優れた正極材料として注目を浴びている。 As this positive electrode material, lithium cobaltate (LiCoO 2 ), lithium manganate (LiMnO 2 ), lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO 4 ), lithium iron silicate (Li 2 FeSiO 4 ) and the like are known. Among these, LiFePO 4 and Li 2 FeSiO 4 have an olivine structure and are useful as positive electrode materials for high-capacity lithium ion batteries. In particular, so-called olivine-type silicate compounds such as Li 2 FeSiO 4 are excellent positive electrodes. It is attracting attention as a material.
これらオリビン型シリケート化合物を用いて二次電池を製造するには、かかるオリビン型シリケート化合物をバインダー溶液とともに混合して塗工液を調製し、得られた塗工液をアルミ箔等の正極集電体上に塗布した後、乾燥工程等を経ることにより正極を得る。この際、オリビン型シリケート化合物は、そのもの単独では導電性が低いため、二次電池の正極材料として用いるには、予めこれに導電性を付与する処理を施す。 In order to manufacture a secondary battery using these olivine-type silicate compounds, the olivine-type silicate compound is mixed with a binder solution to prepare a coating solution, and the resulting coating solution is used as a positive electrode current collector such as an aluminum foil. After coating on the body, a positive electrode is obtained through a drying process and the like. At this time, since the olivine silicate compound itself has low conductivity, in order to use it as a positive electrode material for a secondary battery, a treatment for imparting conductivity to the olivine type silicate compound is performed in advance.
オリビン型シリケート化合物に導電性を付与する処理としては、例えば、特許文献1には、炭素源となる有機物をオリビン型シリケート化合物のような正極材料表面に堆積させ、炭化処理をする方法が開示されている。また、特許文献2には、正極材料とカーボンブラック等の導電性物質とを、遊星ボールミルを用いて粉砕・混合し、正極材料として用い得る複合体粒子を得る方法が開示されている。 As a treatment for imparting conductivity to an olivine-type silicate compound, for example, Patent Document 1 discloses a method of depositing an organic substance serving as a carbon source on the surface of a positive electrode material such as an olivine-type silicate compound and performing a carbonization treatment. ing. Patent Document 2 discloses a method of obtaining composite particles that can be used as a positive electrode material by pulverizing and mixing a positive electrode material and a conductive substance such as carbon black using a planetary ball mill.
しかしながら、塗工液を調製する際、上記文献に記載のような方法によって得られる正極材料を用いると、粒子の比表面積が高い上にタップ密度も低いため、粒子の凝集化が進行して塗工液中での分散性が低下する傾向にある。また、バインダーの吸収量が増大するため、塗工液中での固形分濃度を十分に高めることができない傾向にある。このような塗工液を用いるのでは、依然として得られる電池性能の向上を期待することができないため、良好な導電性が付与されてなるとともに、電池性能を十分に高めることのできる正極材料の実現が望まれている。 However, when preparing a coating liquid, if a positive electrode material obtained by a method as described in the above document is used, the particle surface area is high and the tap density is low. The dispersibility in the working liquid tends to decrease. Moreover, since the absorption amount of the binder increases, the solid content concentration in the coating liquid tends not to be sufficiently increased. By using such a coating solution, it is not possible to expect an improvement in battery performance that can still be obtained, so that good conductivity is imparted and a positive electrode material that can sufficiently enhance battery performance is realized. Is desired.
したがって、本発明の課題は、オリビン型シリケート化合物を用いつつ、優れた導電性を有するとともに、電池性能をも十分に高めることのできる正極材料を提供することにある。 Therefore, the subject of this invention is providing the positive electrode material which can fully improve battery performance while having the outstanding electroconductivity, using an olivine type | mold silicate compound.

本発明の二次電池用正極活物質複合体は、オリビン型シリケート化合物と導電性炭素とが極めて均一に分散されてなる空隙が低減された二次粒子であるため、かかる粒子間の凝集を抑制しながら塗工液中での分散性を高めることができるとともに、バインダーの吸収量を低減して塗工液中での固形分濃度を十分に高めることもできる。したがって、得られる二次電池において、電池物性の向上を図ることが可能となる。 The positive electrode active material composite for a secondary battery according to the present invention is a secondary particle with reduced voids in which an olivine-type silicate compound and conductive carbon are dispersed extremely uniformly, thereby suppressing aggregation between the particles. While dispersibility in a coating liquid can be improved, the amount of absorption of a binder can be reduced and solid content concentration in a coating liquid can also be fully raised. Therefore, in the obtained secondary battery, it is possible to improve battery physical properties.
