The invention discloses
transition metal oxide /
polymer gel and a preparation method thereof, a negative active material, a negative
pole piece and a
lithium ion battery, and belongs to the technical field of
lithium ion batteries. The preparation method comprises the following steps: adding a
transition metal oxide into a
conductive polymer monomer-
phytic acid aqueous solution, uniformly dispersing, adding an
ammonium persulfate aqueous solution, and carrying out ice-bath ultrasonic treatment to obtain the gel, the
molar ratio of the
transition metal oxide to the
conductive polymer monomer is (0.38-0.63): (0.05-1.2); and / or the
molar ratio of the
conductive polymer monomer to the
phytic acid is (0.05-1.2): (0.03-0.5). The gel is composed of the transition
metal oxide coated with the conductive
polymer gel layer, use of solvents and the like is avoided, the cost is reduced, oxide particles are connected through a three-dimensional
porous network of the conductive
polymer gel, rapid transmission of electrons and ions is facilitated, and the
conductivity of the conductive
polymer gel is improved. Meanwhile, stress generated by
volume expansion / shrinkage of the transition
metal oxide during charging and discharging is effectively buffered, and the specific capacity, the
cycling stability and the rate capability of the battery are improved.
