Description
本発明は、酸化物に水溶性炭素材料由来の炭素と金属フッ化物とが、ともに担持してなる二次電池用正極活物質に関する。 The present invention relates to a positive electrode active material for a secondary battery in which carbon derived from a water-soluble carbon material and a metal fluoride are both supported on an oxide.
携帯電子機器、ハイブリッド自動車、電気自動車等に用いられる二次電池の開発が行われており、特にリチウムイオン二次電池は、室温付近で動作する最も優れた二次電池として広く知られている。こうしたなか、Li(Fe,Mn)PO4やLi2(Fe,Mn)SiO4等のリチウム含有オリビン型リン酸金属塩は、LiCoO2等のリチウム遷移金属酸化物に比べて、資源的な制約に大きく左右されることがなく、しかも高い安全性を発揮することができるため、高出力で大容量のリチウムイオン二次電池を得るのには最適な正極材料となる。しかしながら、これらの化合物は、結晶構造に由来して導電性を十分に高めるのが困難な性質を有しており、またリチウムイオンの拡散性にも改善の余地があるため、従来より種々の開発がなされている。 Secondary batteries used in portable electronic devices, hybrid cars, electric cars, and the like have been developed. In particular, lithium ion secondary batteries are widely known as the most excellent secondary batteries that operate near room temperature. Under these circumstances, lithium-containing olivine-type phosphate metal salts such as Li (Fe, Mn) PO 4 and Li 2 (Fe, Mn) SiO 4 are more resource-constrained than lithium transition metal oxides such as LiCoO 2. Therefore, it is possible to exhibit high safety, and therefore, it is an optimum positive electrode material for obtaining a high-output and large-capacity lithium ion secondary battery. However, these compounds have the property that it is difficult to sufficiently increase the conductivity due to the crystal structure, and there is room for improvement in the diffusibility of lithium ions. Has been made.
さらに、普及が進んでいるリチウムイオン二次電池では、充電後長時間放置すると内部抵抗が徐々に上昇し、電池性能の劣化が生じる現象が知られている。これは、製造時に電池材料が含有していた水分が、電池の充放電が繰り返される中で材料から脱離し、かかる水分と電池に充満している非水電解液LiPF6との化学反応によって、フッ化水素が発生するためである。こうした電池性能の劣化を有効に抑制するには、二次電池に用いる正極活物質の水分含有量を低減することが有効であることも知られている(特許文献1参照)。 Furthermore, in lithium ion secondary batteries, which are spreading, it is known that the internal resistance gradually increases when the battery is left for a long time after charging, and the battery performance is deteriorated. This is because the moisture contained in the battery material at the time of manufacture is desorbed from the material during repeated charging and discharging of the battery, and by the chemical reaction between the moisture and the nonaqueous electrolyte LiPF 6 filling the battery, This is because hydrogen fluoride is generated. It is also known that reducing the water content of the positive electrode active material used in the secondary battery is effective for effectively suppressing such deterioration in battery performance (see Patent Document 1).
こうしたなか、例えば、特許文献2には、炭素質物質前駆体を含む原料混合物の焼成処理後、粉砕処理や分級処理を乾燥雰囲気下で行うことにより、かかる水分含有量を一定値以下に低減する技術が開示されている。また、特許文献3には、所定のリン酸リチウム化合物やケイ酸リチウム化合物等と導電性炭素材料を湿式ボールミルにより混合した後、メカノケミカル処理を行うことにより、表面に均一に導電性炭素材料が沈着されてなる複合酸化物を得る技術が開示されている。 Under these circumstances, for example, Patent Document 2 discloses that after the firing treatment of the raw material mixture containing the carbonaceous material precursor, the water content is reduced to a certain value or less by performing pulverization treatment and classification treatment in a dry atmosphere. Technology is disclosed. In Patent Document 3, a predetermined lithium phosphate compound, lithium silicate compound, and the like and a conductive carbon material are mixed by a wet ball mill, and then a mechanochemical treatment is performed so that the conductive carbon material is uniformly applied to the surface. A technique for obtaining a composite oxide deposited is disclosed.
一方、リチウムは希少有価物質であることから、リチウムイオン二次電池に代えてナトリウムを用いたナトリウムイオン二次電池等も種々検討されはじめている。
例えば、特許文献4には、マリサイト型NaMnPO4を用いたナトリウムイオン二次電池用活物質が開示されており、また特許文献5には、オリビン型構造を有するリン酸遷移金属ナトリウムを含む正極活物質が開示されており、いずれの文献においても高性能なナトリウムイオン二次電池が得られることを示している。
On the other hand, since lithium is a rare valuable material, various studies have been made on sodium ion secondary batteries using sodium instead of lithium ion secondary batteries.
For example, Patent Document 4 discloses a sodium ion secondary battery active material using marisite-type NaMnPO 4 , and Patent Document 5 discloses a positive electrode containing sodium phosphate transition metal having an olivine structure. An active material is disclosed, and any literature indicates that a high-performance sodium ion secondary battery can be obtained.
しかしながら、上記いずれの文献に記載の技術においても、リン酸リチウム化合物等の表面が、炭素源によって充分に被覆されずに一部の表面が露出しているため、水分の吸着を抑制できずに水分含有量が高まり、サイクル特性等の電池物性が充分に高い二次電池用正極活物質を得るのは困難であることが判明した。 However, in any of the techniques described in any of the above documents, the surface of the lithium phosphate compound or the like is not sufficiently covered with the carbon source, and a part of the surface is exposed. It has been found that it is difficult to obtain a positive electrode active material for a secondary battery in which the moisture content is increased and the battery properties such as cycle characteristics are sufficiently high.
したがって、本発明の課題は、高性能なリチウムイオン二次電池又はナトリウムイオン二次電池を得るべく、水分の吸着を効果的に抑制することのできる二次電池用正極活物質及びその製造方法を提供することにある。 Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a positive electrode active material for a secondary battery that can effectively suppress moisture adsorption and a method for manufacturing the same, in order to obtain a high-performance lithium ion secondary battery or a sodium ion secondary battery. It is to provide.
そこで本発明者らは、種々検討したところ、特定の酸化物に、水溶性炭素材料由来の炭素と、特定量の金属フッ化物とが担持してなる二次電池用正極活物質であれば、水溶性炭素材料由来の炭素と金属フッ化物が共に酸化物表面を効率的に被覆して水分の吸着を有効に抑制できるため、リチウムイオン又はナトリウムイオンが有効に電気伝導を担うことのできる二次電池用正極活物質として、極めて有用であることを見出し、本発明を完成させるに至った。 Therefore, the present inventors have made various studies, as long as it is a positive electrode active material for a secondary battery in which carbon derived from a water-soluble carbon material and a specific amount of metal fluoride are supported on a specific oxide, Since carbon and metal fluoride derived from water-soluble carbon materials can effectively coat the oxide surface and effectively suppress moisture adsorption, lithium ions or sodium ions can effectively carry electrical conduction. It has been found that it is extremely useful as a positive electrode active material for batteries, and the present invention has been completed.

As a result, the discharge capacity at 1 CA was obtained. In the case of a sodium ion battery, the charging conditions are a constant current and constant voltage charging with a current of 1 CA (154 mA / g) and a voltage of 4.5 V, the discharging conditions are a constant current discharge of 1 CA (154 mA / g) and a final voltage of 2.0 V. As a result, the discharge capacity at 1 CA was obtained. Furthermore, 50 cycle repetition tests were performed under the same charge / discharge conditions, and the capacity retention rate (%) was determined by the following formula (2). All charge / discharge tests were performed at 30 ° C.
Capacity retention rate (%) = (discharge capacity after 50 cycles) / (discharge capacity after 1 cycle) × 100 (2)
The results are shown in Table 1.
上記結果より、実施例の正極活物質は、比較例の正極活物質に比して、確実に吸着水分量を低減することができるとともに、得られる電池においても優れた性能を発揮できることがわかる。 From the above results, it can be seen that the positive electrode active material of the example can surely reduce the amount of adsorbed moisture as compared with the positive electrode active material of the comparative example, and can also exhibit excellent performance in the obtained battery.
