本申请实施例通过包覆磷酸锰铁锂材料,在利用磷酸锰铁锂能量密度以及稳定性佳的基础上,基于Nb2C MXene包覆层具备二维类石墨烯结构、良好的力学性能,使得Nb2C MXene包覆层能以层层堆叠的形式包覆内层材料(即磷酸锰铁锂材料),并提高正极材料的离子导电率,从而提升上述正极材料的容量。同时,包覆层可抑制磷酸锰铁锂材料与电解液之间的副反应,从而提升磷酸锰铁锂正极材料的稳定性。并且,Nb2C MXene包覆层可有效抑制上述正极材料中磷酸锰铁锂材料在充电-放电过程中锰离子(Mn2+)的溶出现象,从而缓解充电-放电过程中,锰离子持续溶出致使橄榄石型的磷酸锰铁锂材料结构不稳定的问题,进而提升磷酸锰铁锂正极材料的稳定性。另外,由于包覆层中Nb2C Mxene为二维层状结构,该二维层状结构可促使包覆层中的碳相对平整且稳定的分布于其层与层之间的空间中,因此可避免充电-放电过程中因包覆层中碳移动而出现碳沉积的问题,从而更进一步提升磷酸锰铁锂正极材料的稳定性。The embodiment of the present application coats the lithium iron manganese phosphate material, and on the basis of utilizing the good energy density and stability of lithium iron manganese phosphate, based on the fact that the Nb 2 C MXene coating layer has a two-dimensional graphene-like structure and good mechanical properties, the Nb 2 C MXene coating layer can coat the inner layer material (i.e., the lithium iron manganese phosphate material) in a stacked form, and improve the ionic conductivity of the positive electrode material, thereby improving the capacity of the above-mentioned positive electrode material. At the same time, the coating layer can inhibit the side reaction between the lithium iron manganese phosphate material and the electrolyte, thereby improving the stability of the lithium iron manganese phosphate positive electrode material. In addition, the Nb 2 C MXene coating layer can effectively inhibit the dissolution of manganese ions (Mn 2+ ) in the lithium iron manganese phosphate material in the above-mentioned positive electrode material during the charge-discharge process, thereby alleviating the problem that the continuous dissolution of manganese ions in the charge-discharge process causes the olivine-type lithium iron manganese phosphate material to be unstable in structure, thereby improving the stability of the lithium iron manganese phosphate positive electrode material. In addition, since the Nb2C Mxene in the coating layer is a two-dimensional layered structure, the two-dimensional layered structure can make the carbon in the coating layer relatively flat and stably distributed in the space between the layers, thereby avoiding the problem of carbon deposition due to the movement of carbon in the coating layer during the charge-discharge process, thereby further improving the stability of the lithium manganese iron phosphate positive electrode material.

具体实施方式Detailed ways
针对现有技术中缺乏一种能量密度和离子导电率俱佳的正极材料的问题,本申请提出一种正极材料,该正极材料包括内层材料和包覆所述内层材料的包覆层,所述内层材料为LiFexMn1-xPO4,所述包覆层包括Nb2C MXene和碳;其中,0<x≤0.5。在利用内层材料稳定性佳以及能量密度高的基础上,通过Nb2C MXene包覆层的导电性以及力学性能,使之包覆于内层材料上并提升正极材料的容量。同时,Nb2C MXene还可通过抑制内层材料与电解液之间的副反应,并避免Mn2+溶出,致使正极材料的橄榄石型结构松动进而坍塌的现象,有效提升了磷酸锰铁锂的正极此材料。In view of the problem that there is a lack of a positive electrode material with excellent energy density and ion conductivity in the prior art, the present application proposes a positive electrode material, which includes an inner layer material and a coating layer coating the inner layer material, wherein the inner layer material is LiFe x Mn 1-x PO 4 , and the coating layer includes Nb 2 C MXene and carbon; wherein 0<x≤0.5. On the basis of utilizing the good stability and high energy density of the inner layer material, the Nb 2 C MXene coating layer is coated on the inner layer material and the capacity of the positive electrode material is increased by utilizing the conductivity and mechanical properties of the Nb 2 C MXene coating layer. At the same time, Nb 2 C MXene can also effectively improve the positive electrode material of lithium manganese iron phosphate by inhibiting the side reaction between the inner layer material and the electrolyte and avoiding the dissolution of Mn 2+ , which causes the olivine structure of the positive electrode material to loosen and then collapse.
为进一步提升上述材料的能量密度,在本申请的一种实施例中,上述包覆层中还包括碳,从而使得正极材料在充电-放电过程中电子传输能力增强。同时,由于前述包覆层中的Nb2C MXene为Nb2C二维层状结构,因此当包覆层中含碳时,碳填充于MXene结构的层间,从而可使碳相对均匀的分布在包覆层中,并且不随充电-放电过程而移动,从而避免碳沉积的问题。In order to further improve the energy density of the above-mentioned material, in one embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned coating layer also includes carbon, so that the electron transmission capacity of the positive electrode material is enhanced during the charge-discharge process. At the same time, since the Nb2C MXene in the above-mentioned coating layer is a two-dimensional layered structure of Nb2C , when the coating layer contains carbon, the carbon is filled in the interlayer of the MXene structure, so that the carbon can be relatively evenly distributed in the coating layer and does not move with the charge-discharge process, thereby avoiding the problem of carbon deposition.
进一步地,上述包覆层的厚度为1-5nm。并且,包覆层中碳与所述Nb2C MXene之间的质量比为2.40:1-4.67:1,包覆层的质量为内层材料的质量的15wt%-19wt%。Furthermore, the thickness of the coating layer is 1-5 nm. Moreover, the mass ratio between carbon in the coating layer and the Nb 2 C MXene is 2.40:1-4.67:1, and the mass of the coating layer is 15wt%-19wt% of the mass of the inner layer material.
在本申请的一种实施例中,当正极材料的中位粒径为2-30微米时,该正极材料的一次颗粒尺寸适宜,晶相生长完全,因此可在充电-放电过程中表现出良好的电子传输能力。相应地,该正极材料对应锂离子电池的放电比容量大于150mAh/g,首次库伦效率大于95%。In one embodiment of the present application, when the median particle size of the positive electrode material is 2-30 microns, the primary particle size of the positive electrode material is suitable, and the crystal phase grows completely, so it can show good electron transmission ability during the charge-discharge process. Accordingly, the discharge specific capacity of the positive electrode material corresponding to the lithium-ion battery is greater than 150mAh/g, and the first coulomb efficiency is greater than 95%.
进一步地,上述正极材料的压实密度大于2.2g/cm3Furthermore, the compaction density of the positive electrode material is greater than 2.2 g/cm 3 .

The lithium iron manganese phosphate corresponds to the inner layer material in the target product, which is obtained by reacting the ammonium manganese iron phosphate precursor and the lithium source in step 103 .

The speed of the rotor in the stirring device is 1000-3000 rpm, and the temperature in the stirring device is greater than 50° C. The solid content of the first slurry is 30%-80%.

进一步地,以下针对磷酸锰铁氨前驱体的制备进行说明:Further, the preparation of the manganese iron phosphate ammonia precursor is described below:
首先,在PH值为5-7的条件下,将可溶性磷酸盐、氨、锰源、铁源混合于水中以进行共沉淀反应,生成含磷酸锰铁氨前驱体的第二浆料。上述可溶性磷酸盐与氨之间的摩尔比为1:1~1.5-1。相对于氨,锰源与铁源中锰元素和铁元素之间的摩尔比为x:1-x;其中,0<x≤0.5。First, under the condition of pH 5-7, soluble phosphate, ammonia, manganese source and iron source are mixed in water to perform a coprecipitation reaction to generate a second slurry containing a manganese phosphate iron ammonia precursor.

然后,对所述第二浆料进行压滤、洗涤、干燥,得到所述磷酸锰铁氨前驱体;其中,所述磷酸锰铁氨前驱体的分子通式为:NH4FexMn1-xPO4·H2O;0<x≤0.5。 Then, the second slurry is filtered, washed and dried to obtain the manganese iron phosphate ammonia precursor; wherein the molecular formula of the manganese iron phosphate ammonia precursor is: NH 4 Fe x Mn 1-x PO 4 ·H2O; 0<x≤0.5.
上述洗涤步骤可洗去铁源、和/或锰源引入的硫酸根离子等杂质。The above-mentioned washing step can wash away impurities such as sulfate ions introduced by the iron source and/or manganese source.
进一步地,上述干燥的温度为80-200℃,干燥的时间为2-12小时。Furthermore, the drying temperature is 80-200° C., and the drying time is 2-12 hours.
为避免共沉淀反应过程中铁源所引入的Fe2+离子被氧化,而生成Fe3+离子,共沉淀反应在抗氧化剂存在的条件下反应。其中,抗氧化剂的添加质量占所述铁源的质量的0.4wt%-0.6wt%。该抗氧化剂可以为抗坏血酸。In order to prevent the Fe 2+ ions introduced by the iron source from being oxidized and generating Fe 3+ ions during the coprecipitation reaction, the coprecipitation reaction is carried out in the presence of an antioxidant, wherein the added mass of the antioxidant accounts for 0.4wt%-0.6wt% of the mass of the iron source. The antioxidant can be ascorbic acid.

进一步地,以下针对Nb2C MXene的制备进行说明:Furthermore, the preparation of Nb2C MXene is described below:
首先,将氢氟酸或氟化锂和盐酸的混合物作为刻蚀液,与Nb2AlC共同溶于水中,使之进行腐蚀反应,得到含Nb2C MXene的第三浆料。First, hydrofluoric acid or a mixture of lithium fluoride and hydrochloric acid is used as an etching solution and dissolved in water together with Nb 2 AlC to perform a corrosion reaction to obtain a third slurry containing Nb 2 C MXene.
其中,刻蚀液中溶质与Nb2AlC之间的摩尔比为1:1.05~1.5:1。The molar ratio of the solute to Nb 2 AlC in the etching solution is 1:1.05 to 1.5:1.
然后,洗涤所述第三浆料的沉淀,直到所述洗涤溶液为中性;Then, washing the precipitate of the third slurry until the washing solution is neutral;
最后,将洗涤后沉淀在-60℃~-20℃条件下干燥,得到Nb2C MXene。Finally, the washed precipitate is dried at -60°C to -20°C to obtain Nb 2 C MXene.
步骤102:对所述第一浆料干燥,得到粉体材料。Step 102: Dry the first slurry to obtain a powder material.
上述第一浆料通过喷雾干燥机进行干燥。相应地干燥参数包括:进风温度为150~360℃,出风温度为70~130℃,雾化盘转速为3000~20000rpm。The first slurry is dried by a spray dryer. Corresponding drying parameters include: air inlet temperature of 150-360°C, air outlet temperature of 70-130°C, and atomizing disk rotation speed of 3000-20000 rpm.
步骤103:在680-800℃条件下,对所述粉体材料烧结5-20小时,得到正极材料。Step 103: Sinter the powder material at 680-800° C. for 5-20 hours to obtain a positive electrode material.
由于上述粉体材料在步骤101中进过研磨,因而具备颗粒粒径小,且尺寸相近的特点,因此,上述粉体材料在烧结过程中晶相生长更为均匀,这使得正极材料中一次颗粒尺寸相对均匀,进而提升正极材料在充电-放电过程中的电子传输能力,从而使得上述正极材料对应锂离子电池的放电比容量大于150mAh/g,首次库伦效率大于95%。Since the powder material has been ground in step 101, it has the characteristics of small particle size and similar size. Therefore, the crystal phase growth of the powder material is more uniform during the sintering process, which makes the primary particle size in the positive electrode material relatively uniform, thereby improving the electron transmission capacity of the positive electrode material during the charge-discharge process, so that the discharge specific capacity of the positive electrode material corresponding to the lithium-ion battery is greater than 150mAh/g, and the first coulomb efficiency is greater than 95%.
该正极材料的内层材料为LiFexMn1-xPO4,包覆层包括Nb2C MXene和碳。其中,0<x≤0.5。The inner layer material of the positive electrode material is LiFe x Mn 1-x PO 4 , and the coating layer includes Nb 2 C MXene and carbon, wherein 0<x≤0.5.
进一步地,由于MXene作为二维层状材料,具有高导电性、丰富的表面 官能团(例如,-F、-O、-OH等)、和良好的力学性能,因而可在烧结过程中与内层材料表面的锂离子的作用下,以沉积形式吸附于内层材料表面形成包覆层,从而促进正极材料在充电-放电过程中,锂离子的脱出和嵌入。Furthermore, as a two-dimensional layered material, MXene has high conductivity, rich surface Functional groups (e.g., -F, -O, -OH, etc.) and good mechanical properties can be adsorbed on the surface of the inner material in the form of deposition to form a coating layer under the action of lithium ions on the surface of the inner material during the sintering process, thereby promoting the release and embedding of lithium ions in the positive electrode material during the charge-discharge process.
在此基础上,当包覆层中含碳时,碳颗粒可与Nb2C MXene结构结合,嵌入Nb2C MXene的二维层状结构之中,从而在促进电子传输能力的基础上,避免碳颗粒在内层材料表面移动造成碳沉积的现象。On this basis, when the coating layer contains carbon, the carbon particles can combine with the Nb2C MXene structure and embed into the two-dimensional layered structure of Nb2C MXene, thereby promoting the electron transport capability and avoiding the phenomenon of carbon particles moving on the surface of the inner layer material to cause carbon deposition.
