Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of negative electrode materials for lithium-ion batteries, and particularly relates to a negative electrode material for lithium-ion batteries, a preparation method thereof, and an application thereof. Background Art
[0002] With the aggravation of global environmental pollution and the gradual depletion of traditional fossil energy, searching for and developing sustainable clean energy has become a common problem faced by the world. Due to excellent electrochemical performance, lithium-ion batteries have become one of the most mature energy storage devices currently developed. While lithium-ion batteries are widely used, they also need to meet higher requirements. Therefore, developing new negative electrode materials with low working voltage, high capacity, and good cycle stability is of great significance in the practical application of lithium-ion batteries.
[0003] Traditional commercial graphite anodes not only have a relatively low theoretical specific capacity (372 mAh g -1 ), but also have poor rate performance, and gradually cannot meet the growing market demand. Transition metal oxides provide high specific capacity based on multi-electron transfer of transition metals during charge and discharge, and are considered to have the potential to become substitutes for the next-generation commercial graphite anode materials. Molybdenum-based negative electrode materials have high specific capacity as negative electrodes for lithium-ion batteries because molybdenum can undergo multi-electron transfer at low voltages (<1V), such as molybdenum trioxide (MoO3) having a theoretical capacity of 1117 mAh g -1 as a negative electrode material for lithium-ion batteries.
[0004] However, transition metal oxide anodes have problems such as poor conductivity, large volume change during charge and discharge, and poor cycle performance, which limit their commercial application prospects. Therefore, exploring transition metal oxide anode materials with good conductivity and cycle stability is of great significance for their practical application. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The first technical problem to be solved by the present invention is:
[0006] To provide a negative electrode material for lithium-ion batteries. When the negative electrode material for lithium-ion batteries is used to prepare a lithium-ion battery, the lithium-ion battery has excellent cycle performance and high reversible capacity.
[0007] The second technical problem to be solved by the present invention is:
[0008] To provide a preparation method of the negative electrode material for lithium-ion batteries.
[0009] The third technical problem to be solved by the present invention is:
[0010] The application of the negative electrode material for lithium-ion batteries.
[0011] To solve the first technical problem, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:
[0012] An anode material for a lithium-ion battery, comprising a material with the chemical formula Li 2+4x Ti 1-x (MoO4)3;
[0013] wherein, 0.2 < x < 0.3.
[0014] According to an embodiment of the present invention, 0.23 ≤ x ≤ 0.26.
[0015] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the particle size of the anode material for the lithium-ion battery is 100 nm - 2 μm.
[0016] The anode material for the lithium-ion battery is a compound of AMM’(XO4)3 with a Nasicon-like crystal structure.
[0017] To solve the second technical problem, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:

[0020] Heat the mixed solution to obtain a wet gel;
[0021] After drying and sintering, the anode material for the lithium-ion battery is obtained.
[0022] Mix a lithium salt, a titanium-containing compound, a molybdenum-containing compound and a chelating agent in a solvent to obtain a mixed solution, forming a stable transparent sol system. The sol is aged after being heated in a water bath, and the colloidal particles slowly polymerize to form a gel with a three-dimensional network structure. The solvent that has lost fluidity fills the space between the gel networks to form a wet gel. The wet gel is dried and sintered to prepare the anode material for the lithium-ion battery.
[0023] The diffusion of components in the sol-gel system is in the nanometer range, making the subsequent reaction easy to carry out and requiring a lower temperature. Compared with solid-phase reaction, the diffusion of components in solid-phase reaction is in the micrometer range, making the requirements for subsequent reaction conditions higher.

[0028] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the chelating agent includes at least one of citric acid, ascorbic acid, oxalic acid, and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid; preferably citric acid. During subsequent sintering, self-combustion of citric acid can reduce the sintering reaction time and the residual carbon content.
[0029] During sintering, carbon dioxide and water are generated by the decomposition of citric acid, generating pores.
[0030] The amount of the chelating agent is 100%-300% of the sum of the amounts of titanium and molybdenum elements in the mixed solution.
[0031] According to an embodiment of the present invention, in the mixed solution, the molar ratio of lithium, titanium, and molybdenum elements is 1-1.1:0.5-1:2-4; preferably 1.05:0.75:3.
[0032] According to an embodiment of the present invention, both the drying and sintering are carried out in an air atmosphere.
[0033] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the temperature for drying the wet gel is 150°C.
[0034] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the sintering is divided into two steps. First, sinter at a temperature of 300-400°C for 2-6 hours, grind after natural cooling; then sinter at a temperature of 500-600°C for 8-16 hours.
[0035] In another aspect of the present invention, a lithium-ion battery is further provided, including a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a separator, and the negative electrode includes the negative electrode material of the lithium-ion battery described above.
[0036] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the negative electrode material of the lithium-ion battery and a lithium metal sheet form a battery, the electrolyte is a solution of ethylene carbonate / diethyl carbonate (EC / DME, volume ratio 1:1) with 1 mol / L LiClO4.
