Problems solved by technology

However, the electronic conductivity of lithium titanate material is poor (10-23S cm -1 ), the lithium ion mobility is low, resulting in a series of kinetic problems, making the capacity decay when the battery is charged and discharged at a high rate
In order to improve the performance of lithium titanate materials, the methods currently used include improving the electron transport ability by improving the contact between the active material and the current collector, nanonization of lithium titanate particles, surface coating, bulk phase doping and surface doping. Miscellaneous, etc., but the above method has problems such as complex process or poor improvement effect

Embodiment 1

[0042]This embodiment provides a lithium titanate negative electrode material, the preparation method of which includes the following steps: cutting the nickel foam into a 2*2 square, ultrasonically treating it in 0.1M nitric acid and acetone solutions for 15 minutes, and then using deionized water Wash 3 times, dry at 60°C for later use; measure and mix 35mL n-propanol and 8mL glycerin to obtain mixed solution A, add 200mg of PVP to mixed solution A, stir magnetically and add 3mL tetrabutyl titanate and 2.2 g lithium acetate dihydrate, magnetically stirred evenly to obtain mixed solution B; transfer mixed solution B and nickel foam to a 100mL reactor, heated to 150°C for 15 hours, cooled the reaction system, centrifuged and dried to obtain titanium foam loaded with nickel Lithium oxide precursor; put the lithium titanate precursor into a tube furnace, pass in argon, and set the temperature parameters as follows: raise the temperature at 5°C / min to 450°C and keep it for 5 hours...

Embodiment 2

[0046] This example provides a lithium titanate negative electrode material. The difference between its preparation method and Example 1 is that in the solvothermal process, 43 mL of n-propanol is used instead of 35 mL of n-propanol and 8 mL of glycerin to obtain a mixed solution A.

[0047] The lithium titanate precursor obtained in this embodiment was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, and the results were as follows Figure 5 shown. It can be seen from the figure that the product obtained by the solvothermal method using propanol as a solvent is a spherical structure with a relatively smooth surface. Compared with materials with rambutan morphology, the lithium ion transport path is longer and the specific surface area is larger.

Embodiment 3

[0049] This embodiment provides a lithium titanate negative electrode material. The difference between its preparation method and that of Embodiment 1 is that segmental calcination is not used in the calcination process, and the calcination temperature is 900° C. for 8 hours.

[0050] Using X-ray diffractometer and scanning electron microscope to characterize the target product, the results are as follows Figure 6 and Figure 7 shown. It can be seen from the figure that the structure of the lithium titanate material without segmental sintering is pure spinel structure lithium titanate, not the two-phase structure of titanium dioxide and lithium titanate, but the morphology and segmental sintering The difference is not big, because the shape of the precursor is the same and stable, and the heat treatment basically has no effect on the shape.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of preparation of lithium ion battery negative electrode materials, in particular to a lithium titanate negative electrode material and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Lithium-ion battery is considered as an ideal energy storage device due to its wide application in energy storage fields (such as electronic devices and hybrid electric vehicles, etc.). Among them, the negative electrode material has an important influence on the safety, cycle life, and rate performance of lithium-ion batteries. [0003] Currently, the cathode and anode materials in commercial batteries are LiCoO 2 and graphitized carbon materials. In recent years, researchers have explored and synthesized layered LiMn 1 / 3 co 1 / 3 Ni 1 / 3 o 2 , LiMn with spinel structure 2 o 4 , LiFePO 4 and other materials instead of LiCoO 2 . For negative electrode materials, graphite is used to replace lithium metal in lithium-ion...
