Problems solved by technology

However, due to the large specific surface area of ​​nanonized silicon particles, the coulombic efficiency of the battery is very low, and during the cycle, the SEI on the surface of the silicon particles is repeatedly generated, resulting in a thicker SEI film on the surface, which blocks the conduction of electrons and causes the loss of particles. life, which limits the cycle performance of the battery
(2) Preparation of silicon materials with special nanostructures, such as silicon nanotubes, silicon nanowires, porous silicon, etc., but this method has high cost and low output, and is currently only suitable for laboratory research
[0013] Existing materials are mainly improved in the direction of small particles, but due to low Coulombic efficiency and poor cycle, the application of materials in lithium-ion batteries is limited

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of lithium-ion batteries, in particular to a silicon-carbon composite material for lithium-ion batteries and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Due to the rapid development and wide application of various portable electronic devices and electric vehicles in recent years, the demand for lithium-ion batteries with high energy density and long cycle life has become increasingly urgent. At present, the negative electrode material of commercial lithium-ion batteries is mainly graphite, but due to the low theoretical capacity (372mAh / g), the further improvement of the energy density of lithium-ion batteries is limited. Among many new lithium-ion battery anode materials, silicon anode materials have the advantage of high capacity that cannot be matched by other anode materials (Li 22 Si 5 , the theoretical lithium storage capacity is 4200mAh / g), which is more than 11 times the theoretical capacity ...
