Problems solved by technology

[0002] During the synthesis process of the positive electrode material, in order to make up for the lack of lithium in the positive electrode material due to the volatilization of the lithium source during the calcination process, the proportion of lithium will be appropriately increased during the mixing process of the positive electrode material precursor and the lithium source, but the positive electrode material is in the process of preparation. , its body and excess lithium source will contact with water and carbon dioxide in the air to generate lithium hydroxide and lithium carbonate, that is, residual alkali; too high residual alkali will easily lead to an increase in the pH value of the positive electrode material, making the positive electrode material more susceptible to moisture and water absorption , and it is easy to cause PVDF to agglomerate, resulting in an increase in the viscosity of the battery slurry and gelatinous appearance, which cannot enter the next process. Therefore, reducing the residual alkali has a very important impact on the positive electrode material
[0003] CN111370684A discloses a method for reducing the residual alkali content on the surface of a high-nickel positive electrode material of a lithium-ion battery, the method comprising: adding a certain amount of non-aqueous, inactive hydrogen organic Add a certain amount of acid or acid derivatives into the solvent, stir until completely dissolved, and obtain a cleaning solution for reducing the residual alkali on the surface of the high-nickel positive electrode material of the lithium ion battery; wherein, the high-nickel positive electrode material to be treated is inactive with non-aqueous The mass ratio of the hydrogen-organic solvent is 1:0.5 to 1:4; the molar concentration of the acid or acid derivative in the washing liquid is 0.5 to 1.5 times the molar amount of the residual alkali on the surface of the high-nickel positive electrode material to be treated ; Stir at a linear speed of 1m / s ~ 10m / s, add the high-nickel cathode material to be treated into the washing liquid, and stir for 1 ~ 120min; after removing the solvent by centrifugation, heat and dry under vacuum at 20°C ~ 80°C After obtaining the high-nickel positive electrode material after treatment; CN108878863A discloses a method for improving the surface residual alkalinity of the ternary positive electrode material of lithium ion battery, comprising the following steps: the powder nickel-cobalt-manganese layered positive electrode material with the molecular formula being LiNiCoMnO and Mix with water, centrifuge to obtain washed powder material; add lithium source to absolute ethanol and mix evenly, then add water washed powder material, mix evenly, evaporate completely, dry, and sinter to obtain lithium-ion battery ternary positive electrode material; The above-mentioned schemes all use the method of washing to reduce the residual alkali on the surface of the positive electrode material, the operation process is complicated, and it is easy to cause adverse effects on the electrical properties of the positive electrode material
