Problems solved by technology

That is, the soluble salt of the metal element reacts with the strong alkali precipitant under the action of the complexing agent to form a precursor. The whole process takes a long time and costs high, and the precursor and sintered body generally form a regular shape. Spherical or spherical polycrystalline polymers, such material particles are easy to break, when the material is used in the positive electrode of lithium-ion batteries, it is easy to break the particles during long-term cycle use or charge storage
Even if single-crystal particles can be produced, the particle size is generally below 4um. This type of material is prone to "gas generation" in the process of being used as a battery, causing safety hazards

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium ion battery materials, and in particular relates to a modification process of lithium ion battery cathode materials. Background technique [0002] At present, there are two main types of lithium-ion batteries used in the field of new energy vehicles: one is lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery with positive electrode material, and the other is ternary material battery. Due to the insufficient energy density of lithium iron phosphate, it has gradually been unable to meet the needs of social development; and the high voltage and high energy density of ternary batteries are expected to meet people's needs. [0003] Ternary cathode materials can be synthesized by a series of methods such as high-temperature solid-phase method, sol-gel method, spray drying method, hydrothermal method, and co-precipitation method. Among them, the co-precipitation method is widely used in industrial production because i...
