Problems solved by technology

[0004] FMC mainly uses its product SLMP (Stable lithium metal powder) to supplement lithium on the anode, but because SLMP has strict requirements on ambient humidity and oxygen content when used, the result of using SLMP in the existing environment is unstable, and the industrialization of SLMP The use also needs to solve the problem of storage and use environment. Moreover, there is a safety risk of dust explosion in lithium supplementation of inert metal lithium powder, and there are also disadvantages of high cost of material and equipment transformation.
[0005] In addition, lithium-containing compounds can also be added to the cathode as cathode additives. This method of supplementing lithium has simple process and low cost, but the electronic conductivity and ion conductivity of such cathode additives themselves and their delithiated products are usually very poor. Poor, it will increase the internal resistance (DCR) and charge transfer resistance (Rct) of the lithium battery, reduce the discharge capacity of the lithium battery, and will also have a certain impact on the cycle performance and rate performance of the lithium battery, which cannot meet the needs of high energy density lithium batteries. usage requirements

Abstract

The invention provides a cathode additive, a preparation method thereof, a cathode sheet and a lithium battery. The cathode additive includes a composite material formed by an inorganic lithium salt and a conductive agent. The inorganic lithium salt includes a substance with the general formula being Li<x>MNO<y>, wherein 2<=x<=8, 0<a<=1, 0<=b<1, a+b>=1, 2<=y<=6, the M is one selected from Fe, Co, Mn, Ni, Zr, V, Nb and Mo, and the N is one selected from Al, Mg, Ti, Cr, Y, Sr, Si, W, Ga and Zn. The cathode additive can improve the first discharge capacity of the lithium battery, reduce thecharge transfer impedance of the lithium battery, and improve the energy density, cycle performance and rate performance of the lithium battery.
