preparation example Construction

[0028] A method for preparing a single crystal ternary positive electrode material, comprising the following steps:

[0029] S1: Mix lithium oxide with three oxides of nickel, cobalt and manganese in proportion and ball mill; the mass ratio of Li:Ni:Co:Mn is (1.02~1.12):(0.75~0.95):(0.01~0.10): (0.02~0.20), the high nickel content ensures that the capacity of the positive electrode material is high enough. Nickel oxides are NiO, Ni 3 o 4 , NiO 2 、Ni 2 o 3 At least one of the cobalt oxides is Co 3 o 4 、CoO 2 、Co 2 o 3 At least one of the manganese oxides is MnO, Mn 3 o 4 , MnO 2 , Mn 2 o 3 at least one of the During the implementation process, the mass ratio of ball to material used in ball milling is (1~3):1, the speed of ball mill is between 150~250 rpm, and the milling time is 1~4h. The material can be fully mixed evenly, and the particle size of the material after ball milling is 0.5 μm to 3 μm, which is easier to form a new single crystal structure.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing a single-crystal ternary positive-electrode material, belonging to the technical field of lithium ion batteries. The method comprises the following steps: subjecting lithium oxide and the oxides of nickel, cobalt and manganese in a certain ratio to mixing and ball milling; performing primary sintering on a ball-milled material at 400-600 DEG C; carrying out secondary sintering on a product obtained after primary sintering at 650-780 DEG C; and finally, performing natural cooling to room temperature so as to obtain the single-crystal ternary positive-electrode material. The method of the invention directly adopts the oxides as raw materials and avoids the phenomenon of gas generation when hydroxides or carbonate compounds are used as raw materials, so the consistency of an atmosphere, the stability of heat and structural cracking are greatly improved; through direct mixing of the lithium oxide with the oxides of nickel, cobalt and manganese, uniform mixing is realized, the particle size of a sintering raw material is small, and all the elements are uniformly mixed, so a condition for forming a single crystal at a lower temperature is provided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of lithium ion batteries, in particular to a method for preparing a single crystal ternary positive electrode material. Background technique [0002] Lithium-ion batteries have great prospects for application in new energy vehicles due to their high capacity, low pollution, and high power. The ternary nickel-cobalt lithium manganese oxide has a good development as the positive electrode of lithium-ion batteries due to its strong comprehensive performance. space. The mainstream structure of the currently prepared ternary nickel cobalt lithium manganese oxide is still secondary particles of different particle sizes, and its performance under high magnification and high working voltage is still not ideal, because the structure consistency and stability of the secondary particles sex is relatively poor. Synthesizing ternary cathode materials with a single crystal structure is a good solution, but the current m...
