Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of battery materials, in particular to a composite-coated lithium transition metal oxide material and a preparation method and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Lithium ion layered batteries have high capacity, discharge platform and compaction density, and are one of the most studied and widely used commercial lithium ion battery cathode materials. The lithium ion cathode material is directly in contact with the electrolyte, which is easily corroded by the electrolyte, and the original layered structure is destroyed, and the electrolyte is oxidized and decomposed, resulting in gas production, which ultimately leads to rapid capacity decay of the battery, and safety problems such as battery bulging, burning and explosion.

[0003] Coating other materials on the surface of lithium transition metal oxide materials can effectively reduce the contact area between the cathode material and the electrolyte, reduce the dissolution amount of Co, Mn, Ni and other transition metals, and improve the structural stability and cycle performance.

[0004] Common coating materials use metal oxides such as ZnO, Al2O3, TiO2, etc. Such materials have stable structure and will not react with the electrolyte, thereby protecting the cathode material. However, most oxides are electronically insulating, and oxide coating will reduce the capacity. Some coating materials use metal phosphates such as AlPO4, LiPO3, LiMgPO4, etc. Such materials have improved capacity retention rate when coating the cathode material, but the phosphates cannot eliminate the corrosion of the electrolyte on the surface of the cathode at high voltage, and the protection capability at high voltage is limited.

[0053] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below. For those not specified in the embodiments, they are carried out according to conventional conditions or the conditions recommended by the manufacturer. For reagents or instruments not specified by the manufacturer, they are all conventional products that can be obtained through commercial purchase.

[0054] The composite-coated lithium transition metal oxide material provided by the present invention, its preparation method, and applications will be specifically described below.

[0055] The composite-coated lithium transition metal oxide material proposed by the present invention includes a lithium transition metal oxide material and a composite coated on the surface of the lithium transition metal oxide material.

[0056] The chemical formula of the above lithium transition metal oxide material is Li a M 1-b M′ b O2, where 0.98 ≤ a ≤ 1.03, 0 < b ≤ 0.1, the M-type elements include at least one of Ni, Co, and Mn; the M′-type elements include at least one of Ba, La, Ti, Zr, V, Nb, Cu, Mg, B, S, Sr, Al, Sc, Y, Ga, Zn, W, Mo, Si, Sb, and Ca;

[0057] The chemical formula of the composite is ABC3, where the A-type elements include at least one of Pb, Na, Sn, Sr, K, Ca, Ba, Sr, Ln, Pr, Sm, Gd, Bi, Cs, Ca, and La; the B-type elements include at least one of Ti, Y, Zn, Fe, Ta, Mn, Co, Ni, Mo, Nb, W, Pb, and Al; the C-type elements include at least one of F, Cl, Br, I, and O. It should be noted that "B" in the above ABC3 does not refer to the boron element, and "C" does not refer to the carbon element.

[0058] When the B-type elements in the composite are the same as the M-type elements in the lithium transition metal oxide material, the chemical state of the same element in the composite is different from that in the lithium transition metal oxide material.

[0059] The above composite-coated lithium transition metal oxide material proposed by the present invention has a lower impedance, better ion conduction, lower gas generation, better cycle performance and safety performance at high voltages, which is beneficial to improving the electrochemical performance of lithium-ion batteries.

[0060] In some embodiments, the mass of the composite does not exceed 5% of the mass of the lithium transition metal oxide material coated by the composite, for example, it can be 5%, 4%, 3%, 2%, or 1%, or other values ​​not exceeding 5%. In some alternative embodiments, the mass of the composite does not exceed 3% of the mass of the lithium transition metal oxide material coated by the composite.

[0061] In some implementations, the A-type elements are rare earth or alkaline earth metals, the B-type elements are transition metals, and the radius of the B-type elements is smaller than that of the A-type elements.

[0062] In some embodiments, class C elements include at least one of F, Cl, and O. In some more typical embodiments, class C elements are O.

[0063] For example, when element C is O, the complex is an ABO3 complex oxide. In some embodiments, the cation corresponding to element A in the ABO3 complex oxide has a 12-coordinate structure and is located within a cavity formed by octahedrons; the transition metal ion corresponding to element B forms an octahedral coordination with six oxygen ions. Further, in the above-mentioned ABO3 complex oxide, element B forms a regular octahedral symmetric structure with O, and element B is located at the center of the octahedron, forming a cubic symmetric structure; element A is distributed at the center of the octahedrons to form a cube, thereby forming a stable crystal structure.

[0064] In the ABO3 structure, at lower temperatures, surface-adsorbed oxygen plays a major role in oxidation, and this oxygen adsorption capacity is determined by the metal at the B site. At higher temperatures, lattice oxygen plays a role. The amount and activity of lattice oxygen can be adjusted by changing the A-type and B-type elements. In addition, replacing the +3-valent A and B atoms in the lattice with +2 or +4-valent atoms can also generate lattice defects or lattice oxygen, thereby improving ionic conductivity and material activity.

[0065] In some of the listed embodiments, the ABO3 composite oxide may be selected from LaMnO3, BiFeO3, CsPbI3, CaTiO3, BaTiO3, SnTiO3, PbTiO3, KTaO3, LaFeO3, LaNiO3, SrTiO3, or LaAlO3, etc.

[0066] In this invention, the number of combinations of A-type elements and B-type elements is not limited to a single composite structure, but can also be a double composite structure, a triple composite structure, a quadruple composite structure, or a multi-composite structure. Specifically, A-type elements may include A', A”, A”', etc., and B-type elements may include B', B”, B”', etc., wherein the elements belonging to A-type elements such as A', A”, and A”' can be the same or different, and these elements belonging to A-type elements are all located at the same A position in the structure; similarly, the elements belonging to B-type elements such as B', B”, and B”' can be the same or different, and these elements belonging to B-type elements are all located at the same B position in the structure. This can be understood as follows: a single composite structure refers to a composite material of A'B'C3, a double composite structure is A'A”B'B”C6, a triple composite structure is A'A”A”'B'B”B”'C9, and so on. For example, the ABC3 structure may include A'A”B'B”C6, A'2B'B”C6, A'A”B'2C6, or A'2A”B'2B”C9, etc., as long as all A:all B:C in the structural formula = 1:1:3, it falls within the protection scope of the ABC3 structure of this invention. Furthermore, a slight deviation in the A:B = 1 ratio, with a deviation value < 5.0%, also falls within the protection scope of the ABC3 structure of this invention.

[0067] In some embodiments, the A-type elements in the complex are composed of A' and A" and the B-type elements are composed of B' and B", and the chemical formula of the complex is A'A"B'B"O6; wherein A' and A" are different elements and B' and B" are the same element, A' is a lanthanide element and the radius of element A" is larger than the radius of element A'; B' and B" are both elements with variable valence states (e.g., +2 or +4). For example, A'A"B'B"O6 may be selected, but not exclusively, from YSmFe2O6, YPrFe2O6, YPrMn2O6, YPrCo2O6, or YLaMn2O6.

[0068] In some other embodiments, the A-type elements in the complex are composed of A' and A" and the B-type elements are composed of B' and B", and the chemical formula of the complex is A'A"B'B"O6; wherein B' and B" are different elements and A' and A" are the same element, A' and A" are both alkaline earth metal elements, B' and B" are both transition metal elements, and the valence state of element B" is higher than that of element B'. For example, A'A"B'B"O6 can be selected from Ca2FeWO6, Ca2NiMoO6, Ba2NiNbO6 or Sr2NiWO6 by way of example but not by way of limitation.

[0069] Furthermore, when partial substitution occurs at the positions of class B elements, such as Sr2FeMo 0.65 Ni 0.35 O6 or Sr2FeMo 0.35 Ni 0.65O6 and others fall within the scope of protection of this invention. Similarly, when partial substitution occurs at the position of a class A element, such as La... 0.35 Y 0.65 SmFe2O6 or La 0.65 Y 0.35 SmFe2O6 and other substances also fall within the scope of protection of this invention.

[0070] Taking the ABC3 composite as an example, the lithium transition metal oxide material coated by this composite can form a transition layer structure on the shallow surface during cycling. There are oxygen ion vacancies in the ABO3 composite. The increase in the concentration of intrinsic oxygen vacancies through doping substitution makes the ABO3 structure a fast ion conductor. It forms a continuous ion transport channel, accelerates ion conduction, and thus can significantly increase the diffusion path of lithium ions and improve the lithium ion conduction of the cathode material.

[0071] Furthermore, the A and B sites in the ABO3 complex can be replaced by other similar metal ions while maintaining its crystal structure. Its physical and chemical properties can vary depending on the composition of A and B, exhibiting strong ionic conductivity, ferromagnetism, or superconductivity, among other properties. Stable ABO3 complex structures can be tetragonal, orthorhombic, hexagonal, or trigonal, with high oxygen vacancy concentrations causing structural distortion. Because oxygen readily undergoes charge compensation in the high delithiation state of the cathode material, leading to oxygen release, ABO3 structures such as tetragonal, orthorhombic, hexagonal, and trigonal contain numerous octahedral holes that can adsorb gas, reducing gas release and production, thus improving safety and cycle performance.

[0072] Building upon the above, the composite-coated lithium transition metal oxide material provided by this invention improves the phase interface through the combination of the composite and the layered material, alleviating the gas generation problem of the cathode material under high voltage. This results in better high-voltage stability of the cathode material during cycling, thereby enabling the lithium-ion battery to achieve high-voltage cycle capacity retention and improving the performance of the lithium-ion battery. Furthermore, by using the ABC3 composite coating, the lithium-ion conductivity on the surface of the lithium transition metal oxide material is improved, and the corrosion of the cathode surface by the electrolyte is reduced. The resulting lithium transition metal oxide material exhibits good cycle performance, low impedance, and low gas generation at 4.35V, 4.5V, and 4.6V.

[0073] Accordingly, the present invention provides a method for preparing the lithium transition metal oxide material coated by the above-mentioned composite, comprising the following steps: mixing and sintering a primary lithium transition metal oxide powder prepared from a lithium source, an M source and part of an M′ source, an ABC3 composite powder prepared from an A source, a B source and a C source, and the remaining M′ source.

[0074] For ease of distinction, "partial M′ source" is defined as the first M′ source, and "remaining M′ source" as the second M′ source. The total amount of the first M′ source and the second M′ source is the total amount of M′ source in the lithium transition metal oxide material coated by the composite. The first M′ source and the second M′ source can be the same or different. The amount of the first M′ source is higher than that of the second M′ source. The first M′ source mainly functions as a dopant, acting on the bulk phase to improve the structural stability of the material, which is beneficial for improving the cycling performance and ionic conductivity. The second M′ source mainly functions as a coating, improving the surface stability of the material and mitigating surface microcracks.

[0164] Test case

[0165] The lithium transition metal oxide materials coated with the composites obtained in the above embodiments and comparative examples were subjected to performance tests using the following methods:

[0166] Lithium-ion batteries are prepared using lithium transition metal oxide materials coated with composites as positive electrode materials. Specifically: positive electrode material, SP (conductive agent), and PVDF (binder) are mixed in a mass ratio of 92:4:4, NMP (N-methylpyrrolidone) is added, and the mixture is stirred to form a slurry. This slurry is then coated onto aluminum foil and dried at 80°C to form a positive electrode sheet. Graphite, SP (conductive agent), binder, and dispersant are mixed in a mass ratio of 95.5:1.5:1.5:1.5, and a solvent (H2O) is added. This slurry is then stirred, coated onto aluminum foil, and dried at 80°C to form a negative electrode sheet. The positive electrode sheet, negative electrode, electrolyte, and separator are then assembled into a pouch battery.

[0167] Capacity testing: Four pouch cells were taken as parallel samples, formed, and capacity measured. They were then charged at a constant current rate of 0.2C to voltage V1 at room temperature (25°C), and further charged under constant voltage conditions (V1) until the current dropped below 0.05C, bringing them to a fully charged state (V1). Then, they were discharged at a constant current rate of 0.2C to V2 to obtain the discharge capacity. The specific discharge capacity at 0.33C / 0.2C rate was calculated using the following formula: Specific discharge capacity = Discharge capacity / Mass of cathode material.

[0168] ① The capacity of Examples 3-4, Examples 10-11 and Comparative Examples 5-6, which are based on ternary material 622, at 2.8-4.40V / 0.33C, and the cycling at 45℃ at 2.8-4.40V / 1.0C, are shown in Table 1.

[0169] Table 1 Test Results As shown in Table 1, the materials in Examples 3, 4, 10, and 11 have composite oxides formed on their surfaces, exhibiting higher capacity and cycle retention, and lower gas production. Compared to Example 4, Example 3 shows better cycle performance and lower gas production after replacing the ABC3-type composite with the A'2B'B"C6-type composite of Example 4, but also has lower capacity. In Examples 10 and 11, partial substitution of A or B results in superior overall material performance. A comparison of Example 3 and Comparative Example 3 shows that the uncoated ABC3 composite material exhibits significantly worse capacity, cycle life, and gas production, indicating that ABC3 composite coating can improve these properties. A comparison of Example 3 and Comparative Example 6 shows that forming an ABC3 structure before coating the cathode material with a composite containing this structure is necessary to effectively improve capacity, gas production, and cycle life.

[0170] ② The capacity of Examples 1-2, 5, 8-9 and Comparative Examples 1-4 with lithium cobalt oxide as the substrate were tested at 3.0-4.50V / 0.2C and cycled at 45℃ at 3.0-4.50V / 1.0C. The results are shown in Table 2.

[0171] Table 2 Test Results As shown in Table 2, compared with Comparative Example 1, Example 5 without the M' coating composite deteriorates the material's cycling performance, while M' doping improves cycling. Compared with Comparative Example 2, Example 5 without the composite significantly worsens the material's cycling and gas generation, indicating that composite coating can improve cycling and gas generation. In Comparative Examples 3 and 4, the coating was added elementally during the second and first sintering processes, and a stable ABC3 structure was not formed before sintering. This prevented the formation of fast ion conductors and oxygen vacancies, resulting in deterioration of the corresponding material capacity, cycling performance, and gas generation.

[0172] In summary, the composite-coated lithium transition metal oxide material provided by this invention improves the phase interface through the combination of the composite and layered materials, alleviating the gas generation problem of the cathode material under high voltage. This results in better high-voltage stability of the cathode material during cycling, thereby enabling the lithium-ion battery to achieve high-voltage cycle capacity retention and improving the performance of the lithium-ion battery. Furthermore, by using the ABC3 composite coating, the lithium-ion conductivity on the surface of the lithium transition metal oxide material is improved, and the corrosion of the cathode surface by the electrolyte is reduced. The resulting lithium transition metal oxide material exhibits good cycle performance, low impedance, and low gas generation.

For those skilled in the art, the present invention can have various modifications and variations. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention. For example, ternary 622 can be ternary 333, ternary 523, ternary 71515, ternary 811, and ternary 90505, etc. It can cover other structures such as LNO and LCO. Some steps in various embodiments of the method may be optional, or new steps may be added; or any combination of two / more of the above embodiments. Such modifications, variations, or combinations also fall within the scope of the present invention.
