Problems solved by technology

However, due to the volume expansion effect of silicon during the charging and discharging process, its structure is destroyed, the active material falls off from the current collector, and an irreversible electrolyte film is continuously formed, which eventually leads to poor reversible capacity, cycle stability and rate performance of silicon anode materials.

The regenerated material has the advantages of excellent mechanical strength and toughness, good cycle performance, great reversible capacity and high capacity retention rate.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of lithium-ion batteries, in particular to a method for preparing expanded graphite / silicon carbon materials from graphite negative electrodes of waste batteries Background technique [0002] Since the commercialization of lithium-ion batteries in 1990, they have been widely used in portable electronic devices such as mobile phones, notebook computers, and digital cameras due to their high capacity, light weight, good cycle performance, and low pollution. However, due to the rise of lithium-ion batteries, a large amount of graphite materials are used as battery electrodes, and there is a lack of reasonable recycling methods, resulting in a large amount of waste of graphite materials. [0003] At present, the commercial anode material is mainly graphite (MCMB), and its theoretical specific capacity is only 372mAh / g. Compared with the traditional graphite anode material, silicon has a very high mass specific capacity (4...
