Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, when silicon is used as a negative electrode material, a huge volume change (greater than 300%) occurs during the lithium intercalation process, which leads to the detachment of the electrode material from the current collector , pulverization and other problems, which lead to a sharp decline in the capacity of the silicon-based negative electrode battery
In addition, the intrinsic electronic conductivity of silicon is low, and it is necessary to add a conductive network to improve the electronic conductivity of the entire electrode.

Abstract

The invention provides a preparation method of a silicon / graphite compound cathode material. The preparation method comprises steps of A) mixing graphite, silicon and adhesive, so as to obtain a mixture, wherein a mass ratio of graphite to silicon is (1.5-2.5):(1.5-2.5); B) mixing the mixture and a dispersing agent, ball milling, and drying to obtain the silicon / graphite compound cathode material.According to the preparation method of the silicon / graphite compound cathode material, silicon and graphite are mixed according to a specific proportion and then are ball milled so as to prepare thecathode material, so that the electronic conductivity of an electrode is improved; further, the adhesive is uniformly distributed onto the surface of silicon particles in ball milling, so as to coverand protect the silicon particles effectively, so that nano silicon is less oxidized, the silicon particles are stabilized, the cycle life of the battery is prolonged, and rate performance of the battery is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of lithium ion batteries, in particular to a silicon / graphite composite negative electrode material and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] The theoretical capacity (372mAh g -1 ) is low, which is greatly restricted when high energy density applications are required. [0003] In addition, the kinetics of graphite is poor, and its lithium intercalation platform is close to metal lithium, which is prone to "lithium separation" phenomenon during fast charging, causing internal short circuit of the battery and causing safety problems. Silicon anode has a high theoretical capacity (4200mAh g-1) and a slightly higher lithium intercalation platform (0.3V) than graphite, so it has unique advantages in terms of high energy density and safety. [0004] However, when silicon is used as a negative electrode material, a huge volume change (greater than 300%) occurs during the lithium intercalati...
