Abstract
Description
本発明は、リチウムイオン電池用正極活物質の製造法に関する。 The present invention relates to a method for producing a positive electrode active material for a lithium ion battery.
リチウムイオン電池は、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。 Lithium ion batteries are a type of non-aqueous electrolyte battery and are used in a wide range of fields such as mobile phones, digital cameras, notebook PCs, hybrid cars, and electric cars. 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、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なオリビンシリケート化合物である。 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, Li 2 FeSiO 4 and the like are olivine silicate compounds having an olivine structure and useful as a positive electrode material for a high capacity lithium ion battery.
Li2FeSiO4等のオリビンシリケート化合物系正極材料の製造法としては、Li源、遷移金属(M)源及びケイ酸源の混合物を粉砕し、500〜900℃で焼成するという固相法が一般的である(特許文献1、2)。しかし、固相法では、不活性ガス雰囲気での焼成と粉砕を行う必要があり、複雑な操作が必要であるとともに、粒径や結晶度を制御することが困難である。
これに対し、非特許文献1及び2には、Li2Mn1-yFeySiO4(y=0〜1)を水熱合成で得られる旨の記載がある。
As a method for producing an olivine silicate compound positive electrode material such as Li 2 FeSiO 4, a solid phase method is generally used in which a mixture of a Li source, a transition metal (M) source and a silicate source is pulverized and fired at 500 to 900 ° C. (Patent Documents 1 and 2). However, in the solid phase method, it is necessary to perform firing and pulverization in an inert gas atmosphere, which requires complicated operations and it is difficult to control the particle size and crystallinity.
In contrast, Non-Patent Documents 1 and 2 have a description that Li 2 Mn 1-y Fe y SiO 4 (y = 0 to 1) can be obtained by hydrothermal synthesis.
水熱合成で得られるケイ酸鉄リチウム等のオリビンシリケート化合物は、粒径が小さく、かつ均一であることから、正極材料として極めて有用である。しかし、正極活物質とするには、これらの化合物をカーボンブラック等の導電性材料で被覆する必要があるものの、ケイ酸鉄リチウムは水熱合成反応系に炭素源を添加すると、副生成物が生成するという問題が発生することが判明した。
従って、本発明の課題は、炭素被覆されたオリビンシリケート化合物を含有する正極活物質の新たな製造法を提供することにある。
An olivine silicate compound such as lithium iron silicate obtained by hydrothermal synthesis is extremely useful as a positive electrode material because of its small particle size and uniformity. However, in order to make a positive electrode active material, these compounds need to be coated with a conductive material such as carbon black. However, when a carbon source is added to a hydrothermal synthesis reaction system, lithium iron silicate is a by-product. It turns out that the problem of generating.
Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a new method for producing a positive electrode active material containing a carbon-coated olivine silicate compound.
そこで本発明者は、ケイ酸鉄リチウム以外のオリビンシリケート化合物の炭素被覆手段について種々検討した結果、オリビンシリケート化合物と導電性炭素材料等の炭素源とを混合粉砕処理する方法では十分な放電容量を有する正極活物質が得られないにもかかわらず、全く意外にも、オリビンシリケート化合物と導電性炭素材料と溶媒可溶性有機化合物とを溶媒中に分散させた液をボールミルを用いて混合した後、乾燥し焼成することにより、高い放電容量を有する正極活物質が得られることを見出し、本発明を完成した。 Therefore, as a result of various studies on carbon coating means of olivine silicate compounds other than lithium iron silicate, the present inventor has obtained a sufficient discharge capacity in the method of mixing and grinding the olivine silicate compound and a carbon source such as a conductive carbon material. Despite the fact that the positive electrode active material can not be obtained, it is quite surprising that a liquid in which an olivine silicate compound, a conductive carbon material and a solvent-soluble organic compound are dispersed in a solvent is mixed using a ball mill, and then dried. Then, the inventors have found that a positive electrode active material having a high discharge capacity can be obtained by firing, and the present invention has been completed.
すなわち、本発明は、遷移金属(M)を含むオリビンシリケート化合物微粒子(Mは、Fe、Ni、Co、Al、Zn、V、Zr又はMnを示す。ただし、ケイ酸鉄リチウムを含まない。)、導電性炭素材料、溶媒可溶性有機化合物及び溶媒を含有する分散液を、ボールミルを用いて混合し、乾燥後焼成することを特徴とするリチウムイオン電池用正極活物質の製造法を提供するものである。
また、本発明は、上記の製造法により得られた正極活物質を含む正極を有するリチウムイオン電池を提供するものである。
That is, the present invention provides olivine silicate compound fine particles containing transition metal (M) (M represents Fe, Ni, Co, Al, Zn, V, Zr or Mn, but does not contain lithium iron silicate).

Moreover, this invention provides the lithium ion battery which has a positive electrode containing the positive electrode active material obtained by said manufacturing method.
本発明方法により得られる正極活物質は、高い放電容量を有し、リチウムイオン電池用正極活物質として有用である。また、少ない炭素源量で高い放電容量を示す正極活物質が得られるためリチウムイオン電池のコスト削減も可能となる。 The positive electrode active material obtained by the method of the present invention has a high discharge capacity and is useful as a positive electrode active material for lithium ion batteries. In addition, since a positive electrode active material having a high discharge capacity can be obtained with a small amount of carbon source, the cost of the lithium ion battery can be reduced.
