Preparation method of three-dimensional current collecting structure for lithium battery electrode material

Abstract

The invention provides a preparation method of a three-dimensional current collecting structure for a lithium battery electrode material, belonging to the technical field of novel energy materials. The preparation method disclosed by the invention comprises the following steps: adsorbing metal active particles on the surface of the electrode material so as to form a seed layer at first, then, adding into prepared conductive micro-particle solution, depositing and growing nanoscale metal crystallization micro-particles on the surface of the seed layer so as to form a three-dimensional electrode material, and optimizing and forming nano crystal grains so as to obtain the three-dimensional current collecting structure for the lithium battery electrode material. By means of the preparation method disclosed by the invention, the nanoscale metal crystallization micro-particles are uniformly dispersed and attached to the surface of the electrode material; therefore, the aggregation problem possibly caused due to the fact that a conductive additive is mixed directly and mechanically is avoided; the three-dimensional current collecting structure is formed in the electrode material, so that the electrode material has high electronic conductivity and Li+ migration rate; low interfical contact resistance and high conductivity are realized; and a lithium ion battery is easily applied and popularized.

Problems solved by technology

Most of the existing technologies directly mix electrode materials with conductive metal powder mechanically through physical contact, but the coated metal particles have a large particle size and are easy to agglomerate; or grow metal particles by chemical methods, but it is easy to cause metal doping However, the formation of invalid coating requires precious metals as raw materials, and the cost is relatively high.

[0006] In order to coat the phosphate-based positive electrode material with a surface conductive agent by adding metal conductive particles, the existing patent CN1649188A discloses a metal Ni, Cu coated LiFePO 4 The preparation method of powder, it comprises the LiFePO that prepares to have uniform particle size 4 powder, to prepare an electroless plating solution containing Ni and Cu, which will be treated with SnCl 2 , PdCl 2 Treated LiFePO 4 Put the powder into the electroless plating solution for coating to prepare metal-coated LiFePO 4 Powder, this method needs to be sensitized and activated for LiFePO 4 The powder is pre-treated, the process is complex and the precious metal palladium is used as an activator, which increases the cost; the existing patent CN103560229A discloses a method for preparing a high-conductivity lithium-ion battery lithium vanadium phosphate positive electrode material, which includes soluble phosphate, vanadium The salt is dissolved in deionized water and slowly dropped into Fehling's reagent, and then into formaldehyde solution to form a powdery precursor, which is put into a tube furnace protected by an inert or reducing gas for pretreatment and sintering to obtain a pretreatment Process the powder and sinter again to finally obtain the modified positive electrode material. This method generates Cu particles in the precursor mixed material, which easily leads to partial Cu doping in the subsequent material sintering and synthesis process.

In order to reduce the contact area between the graphite negative electrode and the electrolyte, suppress the peeling and destruction of its layered structure, increase the first-time efficiency of the negative electrode material, and improve the cycle performance of the battery, the existing patent CN104112852A discloses a preparation method of a lithium ion battery negative electrode material , it uses the metal melting method to coat a layer of metal element on the surface of the graphite negative electrode, and realizes molecular-level metal coating on the surface of the graphite negative electrode. The metal element particles prepared by this method are large and have poor uniformity
