Problems solved by technology

However, during the charging and discharging process of the battery, the intercalation and extraction cycles of lithium will cause a huge change in the volume of silicon, and the serious volume expansion and contraction of silicon will cause the destruction of the material structure and the pulverization of the material, which will lead to poor cycle performance of lithium-ion batteries. the sharp decline of

Abstract

The present invention discloses a silicon-carbon composite material and a preparation method thereof, and a lithium ion battery. The method comprises that: (1) a silicon-based material is placed into an autoclave, wherein a high-pressure environment exists in the autoclave; and a supercritical fluid having the dissolved organic carbon precursor is pumped into the autoclave by using a high pressure pump to obtain a mixture; (2) the autoclave is communicated with a pressure-releasing sealed container, and the mixture enters the pressure-releasing sealed container to obtain an organic carbon precursor-coated silicon-based material composite material; and (3) high temperature carbonization is performed under a non-oxidizing atmosphere to obtain the silicon-carbon composite material. According to the present invention, with the supercritical fluid, the organic carbon precursor is completely dispersed, such that the organic carbon precursor and the silicon-based material are uniformly mixed, the binding force is increased, the volatilizing gas-state supercritical carbon dioxide can be continuously reused after entering the pressure-releasing sealed container, and no impurity is introduced into the organic carbon precursor and silicon-based material mixture so as to further improve the rate capability of the battery.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium-ion batteries, and in particular relates to a silicon-carbon composite material, a preparation method thereof, and a lithium-ion battery. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the increasingly serious energy and environmental problems and the requirement of light weight electronic products, people's research on lithium-ion batteries has been deepening. Traditional lithium-ion batteries usually include four components: positive electrode, negative electrode, separator and electrolyte. Common lithium-ion battery positive electrode materials usually choose lithium-containing active compounds, and negative electrode materials are selected from carbon-based materials. When charging, the potential difference applied to the two poles of the battery forces the active material in the positive electrode to release lithium ions, which are embedded in the layered structure of the negative elect...
