Embodiment 1

[0037] The effective height H of the reaction chamber is 5m, and the cross-sectional area is 1m 2 . The interior is fed with a 700°C nitrogen + CO mixed gas flow from bottom to top, of which the nitrogen flow rate is 0.95m 3 / min, CO gas flow rate is 0.05m 3 / minute. The finished 523-type ternary cathode material powder is sent into the reaction chamber at a feeding speed of 5Kg / min. After being dispersed by a 100-mesh vibrating sieve, the powder falls slowly. During the falling process, CO splits on the surface of the ternary material to form a thin carbon film. After the material falls into the collection bin, it is discharged through the finished product conveying pipe. The finished conveying pipe has a cooling effect, which can cool the high-temperature material to below 100°C.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method and device for gas-phase carbon coating of lithium battery positive electrode materials. The lithium battery positive electrode materials are highly dispersed, and the formed powder passes through an inert gas flow containing carbon-containing gas components, and the positive electrode material and carbon-containing gas When in contact, at high temperature, the transition metal ions contained in the positive electrode material act as a catalyst to crack part of the carbon-containing gas molecules to form a dense and tightly coated carbon coating layer, which is coated on the surface of the positive electrode material. Depending on the reaction time, reaction temperature and carbon-containing gas concentration, carbon coatings with different thicknesses and structures can be produced. This layer of carbon coating can effectively improve the conductivity of the positive electrode material, and improve the performance of the battery such as rate and voltage platform.
