Problems solved by technology

In the industry, the silicon-carbon composite negative electrode material generally adopts the ball milling method, and the silicon raw material and the graphite carbon material are directly ball-milled. Although the silicon-carbon composite material formed in this way can improve its capacity fading problem, the overall capacity is low.
Although the vapor deposition method and the silane decomposition method can obtain better electrochemical performance, the cost in industrial production is high, and the equipment requirements are complicated, which is not conducive to large-scale production and industrialization.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing a porous silicon-carbon composite material in situ; the method comprises the following steps that (1) a polymer with positive charges is mixed with a solvent to obtain a mixed solution, wherein the main chain or the side group of the polymer with positive charges has an amino group; and the solvent is a mixed solvent composed of an organic solvent andwater; (2) a silicon source is mixed with the mixed solvent obtained in the step (1), the mixture is subjected to hydrolysis reaction to obtain a suspension, and then the suspension is subjected to post-treatment A to obtain a silicon-carbon precursor; and (3) the silicon-carbon precursor is mixed with magnesium powder, magnesium thermal reduction reaction is carried out to obtain a crude product, and post-treatment B is performed to obtain the porous silicon-carbon composite material. The invention discloses the method for preparing the porous silicon-carbon composite material in situ; the prepared porous silicon-carbon composite material is complete in morphology, the particle sizes of the composite material are relatively small, and the particle sizes of the composite material are about 20-60 nm. By taking the porous silicon-carbon composite material as a negative electrode, the cycling stability of the lithium battery can be remarkably improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of preparation of silicon-carbon composite materials, in particular to a method for preparing porous silicon-carbon composite materials in situ. Background technique [0002] With the development of today's society, especially the gradual development of new energy vehicles, the demand for high specific energy battery systems is also increasing. Lithium batteries have become the focus of research due to their high energy density, high discharge power, and high rated voltage. In the research of lithium-ion batteries, silicon negative electrodes are currently known to have the largest theoretical specific capacity. 4200mAh), but the silicon negative electrode will have a very large volume expansion (about 400 times) when it is used as a negative electrode charge and discharge cycle, which will cause the silicon negative electrode to fall off from the electrode sheet after many cycles, and the volume of silicon will expan...
