[0002] Silicon material has become one of the most potential high-capacity silicon negative electrode materials due to its super-high theoretical specific capacity 4200mAh / g, low discharge voltage and lithium ion diffusion potential barrier, and high abundance of Si element in the earth's crust. Although the theoretical specific capacity of the silicon negative electrode material is more than 10 times that of the graphite negative electrode material, the volume expansion rate of the silicon negative electrode material during the delithiation and lithium intercalation process of charging and discharging can reach 300%, and the severe volume expansion will cause serious damage to the negative electrode structure during the multiple cycle discharge process, which seriously shortens the service life of the lithium battery.
