Lithium ion battery anode material with LiCoO2 coated on surface and preparation method for lithium ion battery anode material

Abstract

The invention provides a lithium ion battery anode material with LiCoO2 coated on the surface and a preparation method for the lithium ion battery anode material. The preparation method comprises the following steps of: uniformly mixing an anode material, a low-melting-point salt, a lithium compound and a cobalt compound; raising the temperature to be between the melting point and the boiling point of the low-melting-point salt to form a molten salt medium; reacting for a certain period of time, and then cooling to the room temperature; and washing and drying to obtain the lithium ion battery anode material with the LiCoO2 coated on the surface. By the preparation method, the molten salt is used as a reaction medium, the process is simple, the synthesis temperature is low, the holding time is short, a layer of electrochemical active substance is formed on the surface of base material particles, the performance and the structure of the base material of the anode material are not changed, and advantages of a modified layer is obtained.
