Problems solved by technology

At present, the anodes of commercial lithium-ion batteries are mostly graphite-based carbon materials, and graphite anodes have the following disadvantages: the low migration rate of lithium ions leads to poor high-rate charge and discharge capabilities, and the lithium intercalation potential is close to the lithium precipitation potential, resulting in poor safety performance. , the large volume change during charge and discharge causes poor cycle performance, and the low temperature performance is also not good
However, lithium titanate is not perfect. The material has poor electronic conductivity, low specific capacity and easy gas generation, which affects its rate and cycle.
Generally, the above shortcomings can be improved by coating lithium titanate with carbon material, but it cannot be solved fundamentally, mainly because the previous practice is to add carbon source when mixing raw materials such as lithium source and titanium source, and then sinter it into lithium titanate material , which has the following disadvantages: first, the carbon source coated raw material affects the reaction between the lithium source and the titanium source; Inhomogeneous; Third, amorphous carbon is formed after the carbon source is roasted, and the conductivity is not good

Abstract

The invention provides a method for preparing a lithium titanate material. A certain quantity of lithium-containing compound, titanium-containing compound and additive are weighed, and a certain amount of deionized water and dispersion agent are added for primary dispersion; moisture is removed after drying to obtain solid 1; then the obtained solid 1 is roasted in air to obtain a primary battery material; a certain quantity of carbon-containing wrapping material and additive are weighed and dispersed in water, the primary battery material is added for secondary sufficient mixing, moisture is moved after drying, and solid 2 is obtained, finally the obtained solid 2 is roasted in the inert or reduction atmosphere, and the graphene-wrapped battery material containing a certain amount of additive is obtained. Due to two times of dispersion and roasting, it is guaranteed that the carbon-containing wrapping layer covers the surface of lithium titanate in a sufficiently uniform and compact mode and is not prone to being damaged or falling off, and accordingly the defect of insufficient wrapping is overcome. Due to use of the additive, conductivity of a lithium titanate body is improved, rate capability of the lithium titanate material is improved, conductivity is high, and gas generation is prevented.
