Problems solved by technology

However, silicon has a serious volume expansion (300-400%) during the charge-discharge process, which makes it withstand a large mechanical force during the charge-discharge cycle and gradually pulverizes and collapses, affecting the connection between the active material and the current collector. , which is not conducive to electron transport; on the other hand, the solid electrolyte interface film formed between the silicon-based material and the electrolyte gradually thickens, which is not conducive to improving the capacity of lithium batteries, resulting in a sharp decline in the cycle performance of lithium batteries

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of negative electrode materials for lithium ion batteries, in particular to a silicon carbon material and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Lithium-ion batteries have the characteristics of high working voltage, large specific energy, small size, light weight, and long cycle life, making them the focus of the development and competition of the automobile industry. Traditional commercial lithium-ion batteries mainly use graphite-like carbon materials as negative electrode materials. However, the theoretical specific capacity of commercial graphite negative electrode materials is only 372mAh / g. Therefore, research and development of high-capacity lithium battery negative electrode materials is imminent. Because of its theoretical specific capacity of 4200mAh / g, which is much higher than the theoretical specific capacity of commercial graphite (372mAh / g), and its wide sources, low cost...
