Problems solved by technology

However, due to the serious volume expansion and contraction of the silicon anode during the intercalation and deintercalation cycle of lithium, the material structure is destroyed and mechanically crushed, which leads to the degradation of the electrode cycle performance and limits its commercial application.

Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method of a silicon and carbon-coated graphene composite cathode material. The technical problem to be solved is to enhance the electronic conductivity of the silicon-based cathode material, buffer the volume effect produced in the process of deintercalation of the lithium in the silicon-based cathode material and enhance the structure stability in the circulation process of the material at the same time. The material is prepared by using a spray drying-thermally decomposing treatment process in the invention. The preparation method comprises the following steps of: evenly dispersing nano silicon and graphite micro powder in a dispersion solution of oxidized graphene, carrying out thermal treatment under an inert protection atmosphere after spray drying, subsequently cooling along a furnace to obtain the silicon and carbon-coated graphene composite cathode material. The extra binder does not need to add in the process of manufacturing balls in the invention and the outer oxidized graphene is thermally reduced in situ to graphene in the thermal treatment process of the composite precursor, so that the process is simple and easy to operate; and the practical degree is high. The prepared composite material has the advantages of great reversible capacity, designable capacity, good cycling performance and high-current discharging performance, high tap density and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of lithium ion battery materials and preparation methods thereof, and relates to a preparation method of lithium ion battery composite negative electrode materials. Background technique [0002] Lithium-ion batteries are widely used in various portable electronic devices and electric vehicles due to their advantages such as high energy density, high working voltage, low self-discharge rate, small size, light weight, and long cycle life. At present, the commercial lithium-ion battery anode materials are mainly graphite-based anode materials, but because the theoretical specific capacity is only 372mAh / g, it gradually cannot meet people's needs for high energy density batteries. Therefore, the development of new negative electrode materials with high specific capacity, high charge-discharge efficiency, and high cycle stability has become a current research hotspot. [0003] In recent years, silicon's high theoretical s...
