The invention belongs to the field of
lithium ion batteries and provides a
lithium ion battery
anode material Li(Ni0.8Co0.1Mn0.1)1-xYxO2 and a preparation method thereof. In the formula, x is greaterthan 0 and less than or equal to 0.05, and the material is used for overcoming defects that LiNi0.8Mn0.1Co0.1O2 is poor in electrochemical circulation property and poor in security property. Accordingto the material, bulk phase
doping modification is carried out, mixed cation arrangement of the material is reduced through
doping a very small amount of a
yttrium element, an Li<+>
diffusion channelcan be increased, the
diffusion capability of Li<+> in the material can be improved, internal structures of the material can be stabilized, and the circulation stability of the material can be remarkably improved; in addition, by virtue of the capability that metallic
yttrium ions have an
oxygen storage function, Ni<4+> ions in the material have very high
oxidation activity when
lithium of the material is removed at a
high voltage; in addition, due to O2- absorption functions of the
yttrium ions, the surfaces of Ni<4+> ions can be passivated, the oxidability of
electrolyte can be weakened, and the security of recharge and
discharge at a
high voltage can be improved; due to LiYO2 lithium
fast ion conductor generated on the surface, not only is the
ionic conductivity improved, but also thesurface
alkalinity of the material can be degraded. By adopting the
lithium ion battery anode material, relatively large multiplying power recharge and
discharge and high-
energy density requirements can be met, and in addition, the security under a high-
voltage recharge and
discharge condition can be greatly improved.
