Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of lithium ion battery materials, in particular to a silicon oxide / silicon / lithium metasilicate composite negative electrode material and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Lithium-ion batteries are widely used in various electronic products and equipment and electric vehicles because of their high specific energy and long cycle life. The current commercial lithium-ion battery anode materials are mainly graphite-based anode materials, whose theoretical capacity is only 372mAh / g, and the actual capacity is between 340-360mAh / g, which cannot meet the design requirements of high specific energy batteries. Therefore, it has become a key research topic in the field of batteries to develop next-generation new anode materials with high specific capacity, good cycle stability and rate performance to achieve widespread use in electronic products and electric vehicles. [0003] In the past te...

Problems solved by technology

However, these means are very limited in improving the first Coulombic efficiency of SiO

At present, the academic practice is to learn from the method of pre-lithium on Si, pre-lithium on SiO, and advance the irreversible lithium consumption reaction in the first lithium intercalation process of the electrode cycle to the material preparation stage, and realize it by electrochemical pre-lithium. This method is complicated in process, low in efficiency, high in cost, and difficult to realize large-scale production

[0005] At present, it is still in the initial stage of research to solve the problem of low coulombic efficiency of SiO materials for the first time, and there is no very effective method
