Abstract

The invention discloses a high-performance silicon-carbon composite negative electrode material with adjustable and controllable particle size and a preparation method thereof. The negative electrodematerial comprises an inner core and a coating layer coating the inner core, the inner core is nanometer silicon, the coating layer comprises a first carbon coating layer and a second carbon coatinglayer which are sequentially arranged from inside to outside, and the hardness of the first carbon coating layer is smaller than that of the second carbon coating layer. The two carbon coating layersare coated outside the nano silicon, the first carbon coating layer is softer, is more uniform after being coated by adopting a low-temperature carbonization process, has a stable structure, is not easy to damage, and can effectively relieve the volume expansion of the nano silicon; the particle size uniformity is good, and the cycling stability of the material can be improved. The second carbon coating layer on the outermost layer is hard, particle bonding of the composite material during high-temperature carbonization can be prevented, the particle size consistency of the composite materialis guaranteed, meanwhile, the material yield can be increased, the production and processing cost is reduced, and large-scale production is easy to achieve.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of lithium ion batteries, in particular to a silicon-carbon composite negative electrode material with high performance and adjustable particle size and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Due to the advantages of high voltage, high capacity, long cycle life, low self-discharge efficiency, and good safety performance, lithium-ion batteries are widely used in 3C / digital products, electric vehicles, start-stop power supplies, aircraft models, and energy storage. At present, commercial lithium-ion battery anode materials are still mainly graphite materials. The theoretical specific capacity of graphite is 372mAh / g, but the high-end graphite sold on the market is already close to this theoretical capacity, which cannot meet the requirements of higher energy for lithium-ion batteries. Density requirements, its future development space is very limited. Therefore, it is imperative to develop a new ge...
