Problems solved by technology

However, LiCoO 2 It is easy to react violently with the electrolyte, releasing a large amount of heat and accompanied by the generation of a large amount of gas, which seriously affects the safety performance of the battery
LiMn 2 o 4 As the charging and discharging process proceeds, the LiMn 2 o 4 The Mn in will decompose into the electrolyte and the Li + The intercalation and extraction will lead to the collapse of its crystal structure, making the high temperature performance and cycle performance of the battery very poor
Compared with several other materials, ternary materials have lower initial capacity, poorer cycle performance and rate performance, and faster discharge voltage decay, which greatly limits its commercial market.
However, LiFePO 4 Poor conductivity leads to poor rate performance and poor cycle stability

Abstract

The invention provides a preparation method of a composite cathode material. The preparation method of the composite cathode material comprises the following steps: mixing a lithium source, an aluminum source, an organic carbon source and carbon-containing LiFePO4 to obtain a mixed solution; heating the mixed solution to obtain a gel; drying and crushing the gel to obtain a powder; and sintering the powder to obtain the composite cathode material. The lithium source, the aluminum source and the organic carbon source are used for modifying the surface of the carbon-containing LiFePO4, the carbon source material greatly improves the electric conduction of the composite cathode material, so that the electron transmission speed of the surface of the cathode material is further improved; and the non-carbon source material effectively avoids direct contact between the cathode material and an electrolyte, so that the interface stability of the cathode material is strengthened. The lithium source, the aluminum source and the organic carbon source are used for modifying the carbon-containing LiFePO4 together, so that the lithium ion diffusion and the electron transmission speed are increased, and the rate capability and the cycling stability of the composite cathode material are effectively improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of lithium ion batteries, in particular to a composite positive electrode material and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] With the increasing shortage of energy and the increasingly serious environmental pollution, the development and application of new energy is imminent. Lithium-ion batteries have the advantages of environmental friendliness, high energy density, abundant reserves, and long cycle life. Therefore, lithium-ion batteries are considered to be a new energy product with the most potential. So far, lithium-ion batteries have been widely used in the current electronic equipment market, hybrid vehicles, energy storage systems, and new energy electric vehicles. However, with the accelerated development of the electronic market, the energy density of traditional lithium-ion batteries can no longer meet the needs of electronic equipment. Therefore, it is of great importance ...
