Abstract

The invention provides a composite silicon-carbon electrode material with a shelly structure. The composite silicon-carbon electrode material is composed of reduced graphene oxide, silicon nanoparticles and carbon nanotubes, wherein the silicon nanoparticles are dispersed among multiple layers of the reduced graphene oxide; gaps are left between the silicon nanoparticles and the reduced graphene oxide; and the carbon nanotubes prop open the reduced graphene oxide and allow the reduced graphene oxide to include the silicon nanoparticles like shells. The invention also provides preparation and application of the composite silicon-carbon electrode material with the shelly structure. According to the invention, the shelly structure is formed among the layers of the reduced graphene oxide, thecarbon nanotubes provides support among the layers of the reduced graphene oxide and spatial partition for the silicon nanoparticles, so reserved space is left for the volume expansion of silicon during charging and discharging of a battery, and the structural integrity of an active material of a negative electrode can be better maintained; and thus, the battery is allowed to have high capacity which is hard to attenuate, good cyclicity and long service life.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of battery materials, and in particular relates to a carbon-silicon composite electrode material, its preparation method and application. Background technique [0002] Due to the advantages of high open circuit voltage, high energy density, low self-discharge rate and no pollution, lithium-ion batteries are widely used in electronic equipment, electric transportation, aerospace, military, medical and other fields. The charging and discharging process of lithium-ion batteries is based on the repeated intercalation and deintercalation of lithium ions between the positive and negative electrode materials. At present, commercial lithium-ion batteries mainly use carbon materials as negative electrodes, and graphite is the most widely used due to its layered structure that facilitates the intercalation and extraction of lithium ions. However, the theoretical specific capacity of graphite is only 372mAh / g, which is relative...
