Problems solved by technology

However, the cycle and storage performance of this material at high temperature (above 55°C) is poor, so LiMn 2 o 4 Lithium-ion batteries, which are positive active materials, have serious self-discharge phenomena and rapid reversible capacity decay.
[0005] LiMn can be improved by replacing part of Mn with elements Li, Mg, Al, Cr, Ni, Co, etc. 2 o 4 The structural stability of the material improves the cycle performance of the material, but a disadvantage of doping is that the specific capacity of the positive electrode material is reduced
[0006] Obviously, the existing positive electrode active materials cannot meet the requirements of producing large-capacity or high-power lithium-ion batteries

Embodiment 1

[0026] 50 kg of manganese and aluminum composite oxide precursor MnO 2 -Al 2 o 3 (Mn:Al=1.85:0.15) and 11 kg Li 2 CO 3 Thoroughly grind and mix, then pre-sinter at 450°C for 5 hours, then heat up to 950°C and sinter at high temperature for 24 hours, and finally cool down to room temperature slowly.

[0027] The particle size and morphology of the materials were observed on a Hitachi S-4000 scanning electron microscope. From figure 1 We can find that the new modified lithium manganese oxide we prepared is a single crystal particle, presenting a perfect regular octahedron, the grain size is about 5-10 microns, the particle size is uniform, and the surface is smooth.

[0028] The crystal structure of the material was analyzed using a Rigaku B / Max-2400 X-ray diffractometer (Rigaku Ltd.), with Cu Kα line as the light source, and the diffraction angle 2θ ranged from 10° to 90°. From figure 2 We can find that the synthetic material has a standard cubic structure of normal spi...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a secondary battery cathode material, in particular to a manganese-containing cathode material for a lithium ion battery. technical background [0002] In the early 1980s, American scholar J.B.Goodenough and others first discovered lithium cobalt oxide (LiCoO 2 ), lithium nickelate (LiNiO 2 ) and lithium manganate (LiMn 2 o 4 ) can be used as a material for deintercalating lithium ions, and related patents have been applied for. Among them, lithium cobaltate was successfully used in the first commercialized lithium-ion battery for small electronic products as a positive electrode material by Sony Corporation of Japan in the early 1990s due to its excellent electrochemical performance and good electrode processing performance. Although lithium nickelate has a high reversible specific capacity (210mAh / g), it cannot be applied in practical lithium-ion batteries due to its poor structural and thermal stability and difficult syn...
