Problems solved by technology

Although the results reported so far show that graphene / transition metal oxide composites have improved low-rate charge-discharge performance, their high-rate and long-cycle performance is still not ideal.
This is mainly because graphene is a two-dimensional nano-open system. If metal oxide nanoparticles cannot be tightly fixed on graphene sheets, transition metal oxide nanoparticles are easy to agglomerate during charge and discharge, and graphene cannot Efficiently provides electron transport channels, resulting in poor high-rate performance of graphene / transition metal oxides
Recently, Yang et al. prepared graphene-coated transition metal oxide nanostructures. Although the tight coating structure can effectively prevent metal oxides from agglomerating, it is not conducive to the insertion and extraction of lithium ions at high rates [Yang, S . et al, Fabrication of Graphene-Encapsulated Oxide Nanoparticles: Toward High-Performance Anode Materials for Lithium Storage. Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2010, 49, 8408-8411.]
In addition, the preparation process of this method is complicated, the cost is high, and it is difficult to prepare large quantities of

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of negative electrode materials for lithium ion batteries, in particular to a graphene / transition metal oxide composite negative electrode material and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Due to the advantages of high energy density, high output potential and no pollution, lithium-ion secondary batteries have not only been widely used in small portable electronic devices, but will also be gradually used in large power devices such as electric bicycles and electric vehicles. Therefore, a new generation of electrode materials should have high reversible capacity, good cycle stability and long cycle life at the same time. Due to the advantages of high theoretical specific capacity, environmental friendliness, and low cost, transition metal oxides have become the research hotspots of anode materials for lithium-ion secondary batteries. However, due to the drastic volume change of transition metal ...
