Problems solved by technology

Such as Chinese invention patent application CN 109809500 A has proposed a kind of utilization H 2 o 2 method of oxidizing the precursor and sintering the cathode material in air, but according to H 2 o 2 It can be seen from the physical and chemical properties of the co-precipitation method and the process conditions for the preparation of hydroxides that in the process of high temperature liquid phase oxidation, H 2 o 2 It will decompose itself and form explosive gas with the volatilized ammonia water in the precursor slurry, which will affect the oxidation effect and have safety problems
[0006] In addition, Chinese invention patent applications CN 103178263 A and CN 109461907 A both mentioned a method of using an oxidant to pre-oxidize the precursor to obtain an oxyhydroxide, and then prepare a nickel-cobalt-aluminum or nickel-cobalt-manganese ternary positive electrode material. The oxyhydroxides are not stable during the sintering process, and will decompose and release oxygen to reduce to divalent oxides at high temperatures. This method can only increase the content of trivalent nickel in the material as much as possible and reduce the phenomenon of cation mixing. The sintering process High concentrations of oxygen are still required as reaction atmosphere or pure oxygen atmosphere
As mentioned above, for industrial production, long-term high-temperature calcination, accompanied by the use of a large amount of oxygen, will bring great economic and safety costs, and how to ensure the uniform distribution of oxygen during the preparation process will also affect the design of the production line. , operation, and product quality control have brought a lot of trouble

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium ion battery cathode materials, and specifically relates to a preparation method of a lithium ion battery high-nickel cathode material. An oxidizing agent is added into precursor alkaline slurry prepared through a coprecipitation method for precursor pre-oxidation, then the pre-oxidized precursor is converted into a polycrystalline mixture byadjusting a drying process, and then the polycrystalline mixture and a lithium source are mixed in air or a low-oxygen-concentration mixed atmosphere to be sintered at a time to obtain a target product. According to the preparation method disclosed by the invention, alkali liquor can be recycled to realize precursor pre-oxidation, the sintering time and temperature are shortened, the residual alkali value is reduced, and the crystallinity of the material is improved. In the calcining process, oxygen demand is low, safety is good, and the method is more suitable for industrial large-scale production.
