Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, most of the existing aluminum coating methods for positive electrode materials use highly toxic organic solvents to dissolve organic aluminum sources to coat positive electrode materials. This type of method not only has the problem of poor coating uniformity, but also the solvent is harmful to the human body and the environment; At the same time, the low solubility of the organic aluminum source makes the amount of solvent used is large, resulting in high production energy consumption and high cost.

Abstract

The invention discloses an aluminum cladding method for a lithium ion positive electrode material. The aluminum cladding method comprises the following steps: (1) preparing a cladding-free positive electrode material by a conventional method; (b) preparing an aluminum salt solution from an inorganic aluminum salt and a solvent, wherein the aluminum salt solution is taken as a cladding solution, the aluminum salt is selected from aluminum nitrate, aluminum chloride, aluminum sulfate and aluminum acetate and the solvent is selected from ethanol, methanol and isopropanol; (c) adding the cladding-free positive electrode material into the aluminum salt solution, agitating and heating till the solution reflows; (d) after the solution reflows for 30 minutes, filtering to remove the solvent and drying in vacuum at 70-100 DEG C to prepare a semi-finished product; and (e) putting the semi-finished product into a muffle furnace for roasting, and naturally cooling to room temperature to obtain the aluminum-cladded positive electrode material. Compared with the prior art, the aluminum cladding method for the lithium ion positive electrode material disclosed by the invention not only can prolong the cycle life and improve the heat stability of the positive electrode material under high-charging cut-off voltage, but also can reduce the cladding cost and improve the cladding consistency.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of lithium ion batteries, and more specifically, the invention relates to an aluminum coating method for lithium ion positive electrode materials. Background technique [0002] After long-term and rapid development, lithium-ion batteries have made a series of great progress, and have been widely used in all aspects of daily life. However, due to a series of shortcomings such as short lifespan, poor adaptability to abuse, and high cost of current lithium-ion batteries, its application is limited to a certain extent. [0003] The ternary materials with layered structure are considered to be one of the best choices for lithium-ion battery cathode materials as the energy source of electric vehicles due to their advantages such as high discharge capacity, good safety performance, good structural stability, and low cost. However, the poor cycle performance of layered ternary materials under high voltage limits its applicat...
