Problems solved by technology

However, the silicon material will have a serious volume expansion effect in the process of deintercalating lithium, and the expansion rate is as high as 300%, which will cause the battery material to pulverize and fall off during the charging and discharging process, causing the battery capacity to rapidly decay
In order to solve the problem of powdering of silicon materials in the process of charging and discharging, researchers proposed to nano-silicon, because nano-silicon can reduce the volume change of materials and reduce the degree of powdering of electrodes, but nano-silicon materials are easy to agglomerate, making the material performance in the The application process has not been fundamentally improved
[0005] Researchers proposed to adopt the method of nano-silicon-carbon composite, which alleviated the problem of powdering and shedding of electrode materials to a certain extent, but because organic matter could not completely cover graphite and silicon, and the bonding between materials was not tight enough, after multiple charging After the discharge cycle, the capacity still has obvious attenuation, and the material still has serious pulverization.
Even though the organic matter can completely cover the nano-silicon through the existing technical means, the strength of the organic matter to crack carbon is not high, so that the content of the organic matter is too high and the capacity of the composite material is reduced, and the content of the organic matter is too low to effectively limit the charge and discharge process of the nano-silicon. The phenomenon of volume expansion, still does not improve the overall performance of the battery
