[0030] On the one hand, an embodiment of the present invention provides a method for preparing a silicon / graphite composite negative electrode material, the method comprising the following steps:

[0031] Step 101, putting the mixture of elemental silicon particles and graphite in a ball mill for ball milling to obtain a ball milled product.

[0032] In the embodiment of the present invention, graphite with a small specific surface area is selected as a material for buffering the volume effect of silicon. Through ball milling, the silicon particles are nano-dispersed in the graphite sheet structure and are in contact with the graphite sheet structure. Therefore, the lamellar structure of graphite and the gaps between nano-dispersed silicon particles can provide a large number of channels for lithium ions, increase the insertion position of lithium ions, so as to achieve the purpose of buffering the volume effect of silicon materials and effectively improve the preparation.

Abstract

The invention discloses a silicon / graphite composite anode material and a preparation method thereof, belonging to the field of a lithium ion battery anode material. The method comprises the following steps: ball milling the mixture of monomer silicon particles and graphite by utilizing a ball mill to obtain a ball mill product; carrying out surface hydroxylation treatment on the ball mill product, so that the surface of each monomer silicon particle in the ball mill product is combined with a hydroxyl to obtain a hydroxylation product; processing the hydroxylation product by utilizing a silane coupling agent, so that organic functional groups in the silane coupling agent modify the monomer silicon particle surface in the hydroxylation product to obtain the silicon / graphite composite anode material. In the primary cycling process of the anode material, an SEI membrane formed on the surface of the silicon particle is intersected with the organic functional groups on the surface of the silicon particles, so that the stability of the SEI membrane is improved, the thickness increment of the SEI membrane is avoided, and the coulombic efficiency and cycling stability of the prepared anode material can be effectively improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of negative electrode materials for lithium ion batteries, in particular to a silicon / graphite composite negative electrode material and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Lithium battery (that is, lithium ion battery) is a rechargeable battery that uses carbon active material as the negative electrode and a lithium-containing compound as the positive electrode. The charging and discharging process is the intercalation and deintercalation process of lithium ions: when charging, lithium ions are deintercalated from the positive electrode, pass through the electrolyte and separator, and embed in the negative electrode. The more lithium ions are embedded in the negative electrode, the higher the specific charge capacity of the battery On the contrary, during discharge, lithium ions are deintercalated from the negative electrode, pass through the electrolyte and separator, and intercalate into the...
