Problems solved by technology

Other inert lithium powders have a similar process, and it can be seen from these steps that the process of "inertization" is complicated, and the cost is increased, and industrialization is difficult. Therefore, if a simple preparation process can be used Cheap lithium powder can be obtained, which is of great significance to the development of pre-lithiation

preparation example Construction

[0042] like Figure 1~4 Shown, in the embodiment of the present invention, a kind of preparation method of lithium-tin alloy powder for negative electrode of lithium ion battery comprises the following steps:

[0043] Step 1: Flatten the tin-based foil and the lithium strip together to obtain a stacked metal sheet;

[0044] Step 2: In a dry and oxygen-free environment, the stacked metal sheets are pressed by a pressure device, so that the tin-based foil is completely embedded in the lithium strip, and a lithium-tin alloy metal sheet is obtained;

[0045] Step 3: In a dry and oxygen-free environment, the lithium-tin alloy metal sheet is ground into lithium-tin alloy powder.

[0046] Among them, in step 1, wipe the surface of the tin-based foil with alcohol, roll it repeatedly with a roller press until it is flat, then cut the lithium strip into the same size as the tin-based foil, and place the tin-based foil in the glove box It is flatly attached to the lithium strip, the th...

Embodiment 1

[0052] A pure tin foil with a thickness of 15 μm and a lithium strip with a thickness of 40 μm were selected, pressed in a glove box at 30 MPa for 5 hours with a tablet press, and after grinding, a lithium-tin alloy powder with a particle size of 50 μm was obtained.

[0053] When the anode is a slurry, the powder is added to the hard carbon anode material slurry. That is, in the pulping process, the lithium-tin alloy powder is uniformly mixed with the active material, binder and conductive agent to prepare a pre-lithiated negative electrode sheet, which can improve the first-cycle Coulombic efficiency and cycle stability.

[0054] When the negative pole is used as the pole piece, the lithium-tin alloy powder is hot pressed into the pole piece for lithium supplementation. That is to add lithium-tin alloy powder to the surface of the negative pole piece, and use a hot press to roll it, so that the lithium-tin alloy powder and the pole piece are combined to complete the pre-lithi...

Embodiment 2

[0056] Select a 20 μm thick tin-copper alloy foil (wherein, the mass percentage of tin is 90%, and the mass percentage of copper is 10%) and a 50 μm thick lithium strip, in a glove box, under 40MPa, use a tablet press for 5h , after grinding, a lithium-tin alloy powder with a particle size of 10 μm was obtained.

[0057] When the anode is a slurry, the powder is added to the silicon or silicon-carbon composite material slurry. That is, in the pulping process, the powder is uniformly mixed with active materials, binders, and conductive agents to prepare pre-lithiated pole pieces, which can improve the first-cycle Coulombic efficiency and cycle stability.

[0058] When the negative pole is used as the pole piece, the lithium-tin alloy powder is hot pressed into the pole piece for lithium supplementation. That is to add lithium-tin alloy powder to the surface of the negative pole piece, and use a hot press to roll it, so that the lithium-tin alloy powder and the pole piece are c...

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of lithium-ion secondary batteries, and in particular relates to a preparation method and application of lithium-tin alloy powder for negative electrodes of lithium-ion batteries. Background technique [0002] During the first charging process of a lithium-ion battery, the organic electrolyte will undergo reduction and decomposition on the surface of the negative electrode material to form a solid electrolyte phase interface (SEI), which permanently consumes a large amount of lithium from the positive electrode, resulting in the first cycle Coulombic efficiency (ICE) Low, reducing the lithium-ion battery capacity and energy density. For common anode materials, graphite has a first irreversible lithium loss of 5% to 10%. For high-capacity anode materials, this effect is more significant, and the irreversible capacity loss of silicon can reach 15% to 35%, thus supplementing the loss. Lithium is very important for lithi...
