The invention belongs to the technical field of secondary battery negative
electrode materials, and particularly relates to a
silicon-based negative
electrode material and a preparation method and application thereof. The
silicon-based negative
electrode material comprises a silica frame main body structure, doped
metal elements and a surface
carbon coating layer. The method comprises the following steps: mixing a
silicon-based compound, a
metal oxide, a template agent and water, stirring at high temperature,
roasting and activating at high temperature to obtain a precursor, and performing surface
carbon coating on the precursor to obtain the silicon-based negative
electrode material. The negative
electrode material is applied to preparation of
lithium ion batteries and
sodium ion batteries. The silicon-based negative
electrode material is nanoparticles, has a relatively large outer surface area and relatively
high surface activity and is more beneficial to storage of
lithium ions and
sodium ions, meanwhile, the nanoparticles have a shorter
diffusion path in size and are beneficial to
diffusion of the
lithium ions and the
sodium ions, and the
conductivity of the electrode material can be improved by
doping metal elements and
coating the surface with carbon. The material has zero strain characteristic,
high energy density and excellent cycle performance in lithium
ion batteries and sodium ion batteries.
