Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, lithium titanate also has shortcomings. The lithium titanate material obtained in the existing research has a low packing density, resulting in low battery energy density, which limits the application of lithium titanate. Therefore, improving the tap density of the material is the main One of the research directions
[0004] Patent CN 201010177934.4 discloses a preparation method of spherical lithium titanate, which can increase the tap density of the material, but this method has special requirements for equipment, and the process is complicated, which significantly increases the production cost

Abstract

The invention relates to a preparation method of a high-tap-density lithium titanate material, which aims at solving the problem of low density of a lithium titanate material produced by the prior art. The method comprises the steps of ball-milling and mixing a lithium source, a titanium source, a fluxing agent and a dispersing agent in a given ratio, drying the mixture, then pre-sintering at a low temperature, cooling and sintering at a high temperature to form the lithium titanate. The preparation method has the characteristics that the fluxing agent is added in the mixing process, so that particles can be tight in contact in the high-temperature sintering process, the interface tension between each two adjacent particles can be reduced, the growth development of a crystal is complete, and the density of the material can be further improved. The method is simple in technological flow, the raw materials are easily available, the prepared lithium titanate particles are large, the tap density is large, and the electrochemical property is good.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of preparation of energy materials, in particular to a preparation method of lithium titanate, a negative electrode material of a lithium ion battery. Background technique [0002] Due to the advantages of high energy density, long cycle life, and no memory effect, lithium-ion batteries have always been a hot spot in the research and development of batteries. They have been applied in portable appliances, electric vehicles, energy storage and other fields and have good application prospects. At present, commercial lithium-ion battery anode materials generally use carbon anode materials, but because the redox potential of carbon anode materials is very close to the electrode potential of lithium, lithium ions are easily precipitated on the surface of carbon anodes to form lithium dendrites when the battery is overcharged. It may cause a short circuit of the battery and cause safety problems, and the carbon material wil...
