Definitions
- the present invention relates to a graphite powder having a novel structure suitable as a carbon material for a negative electrode of a lithium ion secondary battery. More specifically, the present invention provides a graphite powder capable of producing a negative electrode of a lithium ion secondary battery having a high discharge capacity and excellent charge / discharge efficiency, a method for producing the same, and a lithium powder comprising the graphite powder.
- the present invention relates to a negative electrode material for a Mion secondary battery and a lithium ion secondary battery provided with a negative electrode produced from the negative electrode material. Background art
- Lithium secondary batteries use lithium as the negative electrode active material and oxides or chalcogenides of transition metals (eg, sulfides and selenides) as the positive electrode active material. It is a type of non-aqueous secondary battery using a solution in which an organic lithium salt is dissolved.
- lithium secondary batteries Since lithium is a metal having a very low potential, a battery using this as a negative electrode can easily extract a large voltage. For this reason, lithium secondary batteries have attracted attention in recent years as secondary batteries with high electromotive force and energy density, and are used as distributed or portable batteries in a wide range of fields such as electronic devices, electric devices, electric vehicles, and power storage. Is expected and has already been put into practical use as a small battery.
- the negative electrode material may be substantially only a carbon material, and an electrode serving as a negative electrode can be produced by adhering a powder of the carbon material to a metal current collector together with a suitable resin binder.
- lithium ion secondary battery since the deposition of metallic lithium does not occur during the electrode reaction, it is possible to avoid the problem of negative electrode deterioration due to the precipitation of dendrites.
- the lithium secondary batteries currently in practical use are mainly of this type (ie, lithium ion secondary batteries in which the negative electrode is made of carbon material).
- the theoretical capacity of a lithium secondary battery using lithium metal alone as the anode material is extremely high, about 3800 mAh / g.
- the theoretical capacity of a lithium-ion secondary battery with a negative electrode material containing lithium ions in the carbon material is that lithium ions are regularly and densely stored between layers of graphite, which is the most crystalline carbon material. It is 372 mAh / g when the anode is composed of the lithium Z-graphite intercalation compound (C 6 Li), which is the intercalation compound obtained.
- the carbon material for the negative electrode has surface active sites that alienate the penetration of lithium ions and a dead region for the storage of lithium ions. Even using crystalline graphite, it was extremely difficult to achieve the theoretical capacity of C 6 Li of 372 mAh / g.
- graphite which is a highly crystalline carbon material
- the passivation film adheres with the decomposition of the electrolyte solution during charging. Since the amount of electricity used at this time is lost, the charge / discharge efficiency [discharge capacity Z charge capacity X 1000], which is one of the indicators of the battery, decreases. Materials with low charge-discharge efficiency are very disadvantageous in applications such as small batteries where the shape standard is fixed, because the amount of the negative electrode material needs to be estimated more when designing the battery.
- Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 7-282812 discloses an attempt to increase the capacity of a lithium ion secondary battery by increasing the regularity of a graphite layer laminated arrangement of graphitized carbon fibers.
- This publication states that grinding carbon fibers introduces undesirable structural defects that are different from the ordering regularity of the graphite layers of the original carbon fibers.
- To increase the capacity of lithium-ion secondary batteries It is described that it is advantageous to increase the regularity of the stacking arrangement.
- the discharge capacity of a lithium ion secondary battery is at most 316 mAh / g, and the capacity of graphite-based batteries with a high capacity exceeding 320 mAh / g is exceeded.
- a negative electrode carbon material cannot be obtained.
- JP-A-6-187972 discloses a carbon material obtained by firing a resin obtained by reacting an aromatic component and a crosslinking agent in the presence of an acid catalyst at a high temperature.
- This carbon material has a structure in which a crystalline region in which an aromatic component is crystallized and an amorphous region in which a cross-linking agent is amorphized are mixed, and both have different thermal expansion and contraction coefficients. It has many structural defects. Therefore, in addition to insertion of lithium ions between layers (formation of C 6 Li), occlusion of metallic lithium into this structural defect also occurs, resulting in high capacity lithium. It is described that an ion secondary battery can be configured. However, since special resin is used as a raw material, the raw material cost is high and it is economically disadvantageous. Also, the charge / discharge efficiency is not improved with this material. Disclosure of the invention
- An object of the present invention is to use a carbon material, which can be produced from inexpensive raw materials similar to conventional carbon materials, as a negative electrode material, instead of a special resin, to provide a lithium battery having a large discharge capacity and preferably excellent charge / discharge efficiency. That is to configure an ion secondary battery.
- the density of the gap surface greatly affects the discharge capacity of a lithium ion secondary battery using the graphite powder as a negative electrode material, and the discharge density is increased by increasing the density of the gap surface. It has been found that the capacity can be improved and the above-mentioned target value of the discharge capacity can be achieved. It was also found that the density of the interstitial plane can be increased by the grinding conditions of the carbon material before graphitization and the subsequent heat treatment.

- the above graphite powder can be produced by a method comprising heat-treating a carbon material which has been subjected to high-speed pulverization before and / or after carbonization at a temperature of 2500 ° C. or more to graphitize.
- the graphite powder according to the present invention is subjected to a heat treatment under conditions capable of removing the surface of the graphite powder, and further subjected to 800 in an inert gas. It can also be produced by a method comprising heat treatment at the above temperature.
- the graphite powder to be used may be a synthetic graphite powder obtained by subjecting a carbon material to heat treatment at a temperature of 2500 ° C. or more to graphitize and pulverizing before or after carbonization or after graphitization, or It may be obtained by pulverizing natural graphite. With this method, graphite powder having a remarkably high density on the gap surface can be produced.

- FIG. 8 is a schematic sectional view showing the structure of the lithium ion secondary battery produced in the example. Detailed description of the invention
- this closed structure generally takes a multilayered loop structure in which several loops are superimposed, rather than a single-layer loop.
- the laminated loop structure having no open end formed by overlapping a plurality of loops is referred to as a “unit closed structure” in the present invention, as shown in FIG.
- the c-plane layer has an open end between layers between the unit closed structure and the adjacent unit closed structure, which is referred to as a “gap surface” in the present invention.
- the figure shows only the unit block structure in which three layers (six c-plane layers) are stacked. However, the number of loops usually differs for each unit block structure. There can be 10 or more stacks.
- FIG. 2 shows a combigraphic diagram in which the ends of the two carbon network layers obtained by the computer simulation are closed in a loop.
- Fig. 2 shows an example of a closed occlusion structure.
- the carbon layer has a structure in which six-membered carbon rings are regularly bonded in a plane.
- carbon network defects such as five-membered rings, seven-membered rings, and vacancy-type defects consisting of larger carbon rings are particularly large in loops where stress is applied by deformation. Can be seen.
- graphite powder is composed of several regions having different c-axis directions (corresponding to crystal grains of polycrystalline powder), and each region (ie, a group of regions having the same c-axis direction) is called a crystallite. .
- the end of the c-plane layer on the powder surface of all the crystallites constituting the powder does not need to have the above-mentioned closed structure.
- the child has this closed structure.
- This gap plane density means the number of gap planes per im in the graphite C-axis direction (that is, the direction perpendicular to the C-plane layer).
- N / L N / L by measuring the axial length L ( ⁇ ) and the total number of gaps ⁇ appearing in this length (see Fig. 1). For example, such a measurement can be performed in several different fields of view (eg, 10 fields of view), and the average value of the interstitial density obtained in this way can be obtained.
- the density of the gap surface of the loop-shaped closed structure at the end of the c-plane layer is 100 to: 500 L /// m. If the density of the gap is less than 100 / m, the number of gaps that are lithium ion penetration sites is small, and the storage capacity of lithium ions is reduced, so that a high discharge capacity exceeding 320 mAh / g is required. Realization is impossible.
- the upper limit of 1500 gaps / ⁇ m of the density of the gap plane corresponds to the density of the gap plane of the closed structure in which all c-plane layers form a single-layer loop between two adjacent layers, as schematically shown in Fig. 4. It is the maximum interstitial density theoretically predicted from the graphite crystal structure.
- the graphite powder according to the present invention preferably has a specific surface area of 1.0 Dl 2 / g or less. Specific surface area Can be determined by a BET measurement method using the N 2 substitution method.
- the specific surface area of the graphite powder is greater than 1.0 m 2 / g, the reactivity with the electrolyte may increase, and the charge / discharge efficiency and cycle life may decrease.
- the lower limit of the specific surface area is not particularly limited, it is usually 0.5 m 2 / g or more.
- a more preferred specific surface area is 0.2 to 0.8 m 2 / g.
- the specific surface area mainly varies depending on the grinding conditions, especially the grinding time.
- the graphite powder according to the present invention also has (1) a c-axis (002) plane lattice spacing (d002) of 3.3700 A or less determined by a precise measurement method of lattice constant by X-ray diffraction, and (2) a graphite. More preferably, the crystallite diameter is 100 to 2000 A, and (3) the volume cumulative average particle diameter determined by laser diffraction scattering is 5 to 35 / m.
- the graph item c-axis direction is, as shown in FIG. 1, a direction perpendicular to the c-plane layer.
- the c-axis (002) plane lattice spacing (d002) is the distance between adjacent c-plane layers, which is denoted by d002 in FIG. 1, that is, the interlayer distance.
- the crystallinity of the graphite powder depends on the graphitization heat treatment conditions, and the higher the heat treatment temperature and the longer the time, the more the tendency is to obtain a graphite powder with higher crystallinity.
- the lattice spacing of a crystal can generally be determined from diffraction peaks in an X-ray diffraction diagram. Previously, it was determined using the “Method for measuring lattice constant and crystallite size of artificial graphite” (commonly known as the Gakushin method) specified by the 117th Committee of the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science, but the error was large. However, the physical properties of the material may not be correctly evaluated. Therefore, as the value of d 002 in the present invention, a precise value obtained by a lattice constant accurate measurement method using a least square method including an error of a diffractometer is employed.
- the value of d 002 thus obtained is larger than 3.3700 A, the crystallinity of the graphite powder may be insufficient, and a high discharge capacity may not be realized.
- the value of d 002 is preferably less than or equal to 3.3650 A.
- the crystallite diameter of a graphite is the length of the above-described graphite crystallite in the c-axis direction. If the crystallite diameter is less than 100 A, the crystallites are too small and the crystal disorder is large, and lithium ions penetrating from the gap may not be stored efficiently. On the other hand, to achieve a crystallite diameter exceeding 2000A requires a long graphitizing heat treatment. Not economic.
- the crystallite size is preferably in the range of 500 to: L500A.
- the average particle size of the graphite powder is represented by a value of 50% by volume obtained by a laser diffraction scattering method. If the average particle size is smaller than 5 / m, the powder is too fine, the specific surface area is increased, and the charge / discharge efficiency may decrease as described above. If the average particle size is larger than 35 / im, it takes time for lithium ions stored inside the powder to diffuse to the surface of the powder, which may deteriorate the discharge characteristics in large-current discharge and low-temperature discharge. .
- the preferred average particle size is from 10 to 30 m.
- substantially no particles larger than 75 m which adversely affect discharge characteristics in large current discharge or low temperature discharge, and fine particles smaller than 1 which deteriorate initial charge / discharge characteristics.
- stress is concentrated on the large-diameter particles when enclosing in a battery can.
- a short-circuit may occur between the positive and negative electrodes by breaking through a thin strip of about 20 m. This problem is likely to occur with irregularly shaped particles whose major and minor diameters differ greatly, and such irregularly shaped particles are difficult to remove by sieving. If the average particle size is larger than 35 m, the existence probability of such irregular shaped particles increases.
- the graphite powder according to the present invention can be produced by subjecting a carbon material obtained by carbonization and pulverization to a heat treatment at an appropriate temperature to be graphitized. Even if it is just graphitized, if the pulverization is carried out under high-speed conditions, a graphite powder that satisfies the conditions of the present invention, in which the density of the interstitial surface of the closed structure at the end of the c-plane layer is 100 or more Z ⁇ m, is produced. be able to.
- this manufacturing method is referred to as a first method.
- the pulverizer is a conventional one
- the resulting interstitial density of the obtained graphite powder is usually slightly higher than 100 pieces Zm (eg, 100 to 120 pieces //). zm), and it is usually not possible to obtain very high gap areal densities, for example more than 200 / // m.
- Heat treatment eg, oxidation heat treatment at a temperature of 600 to 800 ° C
- further heat treatment in an inert gas at a temperature of 800 ° C or more e.g, oxidation heat treatment at a temperature of 600 to 800 ° C
- a very high gap surface density of, for example, 500 to 1500 pieces / m can be obtained.
- the method for producing graphite powder according to the present invention is not limited to the first and second methods.
- the graphite powder according to the present invention can be manufactured by any method. You may.
- the carbonaceous raw material used for carbonization is not particularly limited, and may be the same as that conventionally used for producing graphite powder.
- Specific examples of carbonaceous raw materials include Coulter-Rubich or petroleum pitch, mesophase microspheres produced by heat treatment of these pitches, bulk mesophase as a matrix of these microspheres, and various organic resins or organic substances ( For example, polyacrylonitrile, rayon), and the raw materials described in JP-A-6-187972.
- Particularly preferred carbonaceous raw materials are method small spheres and bulk method.
- the carbonaceous material is pulverized and carbonized to obtain a carbon material.
- the pulverization may be performed before or after the carbonization, and may be performed both before and after the carbonization, but the pulverization before the carbonization is a heat treatment for the carbonization and the graphitization. The heat energy is not wasted. Atomic level irregularities (layer defects) on the powder surface caused by the pulverization form the above-mentioned closed structure during the graphitization heat treatment.
- the pulverization is performed before the graphitization treatment. It is indispensable to obtain a graphite powder having a high-density plugging structure, and the pulverization conditions greatly affect the interfacial density of the plugging structure of the graphite powder generated after the graphitization heat treatment.
- the pulverization treatment is performed after the graphitization heat treatment, layer defects will occur in the c-plane layer of the graphite generated by the heat treatment, and the introduced closed structure may be broken by the pulverization. It is not desirable to perform grinding after the chemical heat treatment. Therefore, in the first method, before graphitization, the final particle size required for the intended use of the graphite powder (the average particle size is preferably in the range of 5 to 35 ⁇ m as described above is preferable). It is desirable to grind. However, light pulverization for the purpose of pulverization, and classification for removing fine particles and adjusting the average particle size may be performed after the graphitization heat treatment.
- the pulverization may be performed in consideration of the change in the specific surface area.
- pulverization may be performed until the specific surface area of the mesophase becomes about 5 m 2 / g or less.
- the pulverization can be carried out using a conventional pulverizer such as a hammer mill, a fine mill, an attrition mill, and a ball mill.
- a preferred mill is one that performs impact milling, typically a hammer mill.
- the influence of the pulverization conditions on the crystal structure of the graphite powder is large, and a graphite powder having a closed structure with a density of 100 or more ⁇ is obtained.
- Specific grinding conditions eg, rotation speed, grinding time
- the graphite with a gap density of 100 // or more after graphitization heat treatment is used. It may be determined experimentally so as to produce powder and obtain a powder having a desired particle size.
- the rotation speed is 5000 rpm or more
- a graphite powder having a closed structure with a gap density of 100 or more Z ⁇ m is obtained after graphitization heat treatment.
- the upper limit is usually 15000 rpm.
- the grinding time could be as long as 30 minutes.
- the preferable grinding condition in the hammer mill is 5000 to 7500 rpm for about 15 to 30 minutes.
- such a high-speed pulverization may be performed, so that the density of the gap surface has a very high-density closed structure, for example, exceeding 500 pieces /// m.
- Graphite powder can be obtained.
- a rotation speed of about 4000 to 5000 rpm may be used. It is also possible to carry out pulverization at a low rotational speed of several tens to several hundreds of rpm using a shear pulverizer such as a disk crusher. Since the degree of freedom of the pulverizer and the pulverization speed is large as described above, it is easier to control the pulverization conditions so that the specific surface area is 1.0 m 2 / g or less.
- pulverization can be performed by using a hammer mill and a disk crusher in the first method, or in the second method, crushing can be performed only by a disk crusher.
- the rotation speed of the hammer mill in the first method is a high-speed rotation (that is, 5000 rpm or more) as described above. Since grinding by a disk crusher mainly involves cleavage by shearing, it is preferable to carry out grinding after carbonization heat treatment to facilitate grinding. Grinding with a disk crusher has the advantage that the crystallite size can be easily controlled, and in particular powders having a relatively large crystallite size and a relatively good particle size can be obtained.
- the gap area density exceeds 1000 / m.
- a graphite powder having such a low-pitch closed structure can be obtained.
- the powdery carbon material obtained by pulverization and carbonization is heat-treated to be graphitized.
- This heat treatment temperature is generally 2500 ° C or higher, and an upper limit of about 3200 ° C is practical with current heating technology.
- the preferred heat treatment temperature is 2700-3000 ° C.
- the heat treatment time is the time required for graphitization and varies depending on the temperature, but is usually 20 minutes to 10 hours. You.
- the heat treatment atmosphere is a non-oxidizing atmosphere, preferably an inert gas atmosphere (eg, nitrogen, helium, argon, neon, carbon dioxide, etc.) or a vacuum.
- the graphite powder produced by the graphitization heat treatment generally has a closed structure in which the end of the C-plane layer is closed in a loop shape on the powder surface.
- the graphite powder obtained by the above graphitization heat treatment or the graphite powder obtained by pulverizing natural graphite is further subjected to an oxidizing heat treatment (or a heat treatment for removing other surfaces) and an inert heat treatment.
- Heat treatment in a gas atmosphere is performed twice to significantly increase the interstitial density of the closed structure.
- the first oxidation heat treatment applied to the graphite powder is performed to remove the powder surface by oxidation.
- the closing structure of the powder surface (c-plane layer end) generated by the graphitization heat treatment was cut and opened, and the c-plane layer ends were flattened to almost the same length.
- Graphite powder (see Fig. 6) having a structure with open layer ends is obtained.
- the conditions of the oxidation heat treatment are not particularly limited as long as the closed structure is substantially opened by the oxidation, but the heat treatment temperature is preferably in the range of 600 to 800 ° C.
- Graphite powder having a closed structure has high oxidation resistance, so it is difficult to oxidize when the temperature of the oxidizing heat treatment is lower than 600 ° C. This is because deterioration progresses.
- the time of the oxidizing heat treatment varies depending on the temperature and the treatment amount, but is generally 1 to: L0 time.
- the heat treatment atmosphere is an oxygen-containing atmosphere, and may be a pure oxygen atmosphere or a mixed gas atmosphere of oxygen and an inert gas (eg, air).
- the surface of the powder is removed, so that the weight of the graphite powder is reduced by about 2 to 5%.
- the particle size of the powder will be slightly smaller (eg 1-2 m). If necessary, set the pulverization conditions in anticipation of this reduction in particle size.
- the opening of the closed structure is not limited to the oxidation heat treatment. If the closed structure can be released by removing the surface structure of the graphite powder to obtain a flat c-plane layer end, other methods can be adopted. Examples of other methods include a fluoridation heat treatment and a hydrogenation heat treatment. The heat treatment conditions in this case may be appropriately set by experiments so as to open the closed structure.
- the graphite powder is further heat-treated in an inert gas atmosphere. Due to this heat treatment in an inert gas atmosphere, the end of the open c-plane layer is connected to the end of the other c-plane layer, and a loop-shaped plug is again formed at the end of the c-plane layer on the surface of the graphite powder. A structure is formed.
- the two ends separated from each other are extremely rarely connected because the end of the c-plane layer on the surface of the graphite powder is flattened by the oxidation heat treatment.
- a large closed structure in which a large number of connecting loops are stacked as shown in FIG. 2 cannot be formed.
- the number of stacked loops is at most 5 layers, and most are about 1 to 3 layers.
- the pitch of the gap surface is reduced, and a large gap surface density of, for example, more than 500 pieces /; um can be obtained.
- the inert gas atmosphere may be, for example, one or more of Ar, He, Ne and the like.
- the heat treatment temperature may be a temperature at which a relatively large lattice vibration is generated so that the ends of the c-plane layer can be connected. Since the energy is lower and more stable when the closed structure is formed by connecting, if heat treatment is performed in an inert gas atmosphere to generate sufficient lattice vibration, the open ends of the c-plane layer are connected. They do.
