Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of lithium-ion battery materials, and particularly relates to a surfactant-coated modified lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode material and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Lithium-ion batteries are widely used in the 3C (3D consumer electronics) sector, new energy vehicles, and large-scale energy storage due to their high output voltage, high energy density, and environmental friendliness. As a member of the lithium-ion battery cathode material family, lithium-rich manganese-based materials, due to their high specific capacity, are expected to become a new commercial lithium-ion battery cathode material to replace ternary cathode materials. However, during cycling at high voltages, lithium-rich manganese-based materials experience severe corrosion of the cathode material by the electrolyte, which in turn triggers irreversible oxygen loss and transition metal dissolution, leading to structural collapse and capacity decay of the material under high voltage conditions.

[0003] Current solutions to the interfacial issues faced by lithium-rich manganese-based cathode materials primarily involve constructing an artificial interface layer on the cathode particles to modify the material surface and reduce side reactions between the material and the electrolyte. Furthermore, methods such as electron layer deposition and chemical vapor deposition are often used to uniformly coat the cathode material surface. However, these methods are complex and costly, making them difficult to commercialize.

[0004] Therefore, the present invention utilizes a cationic surfactant as a coating material, and the coating material is uniformly coated on the lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode material through a simple solution method, and through a subsequent heat treatment process, the coating material is firmly bonded to the surface of the lithium-rich manganese-based material, so that the coating material protects the surface structure of the material for a long time during the circulation process. On the other hand, since the crystal size of the cationic surfactant is closely related to the solvent volatilization rate, the crystal size of the surfactant can be controlled by controlling the solvent rate, and the thickness of the coating layer can be controlled by controlling the quality of the cationic surfactant. This structure inhibits the side reactions of the lithium-rich manganese-based surface under high pressure conditions and inhibits oxygen precipitation. At the same time, the addition of the cationic surfactant reduces the surface tension of the solvent, increases the contact area between the solution and the positive electrode material particles, thereby achieving uniform coating of the coating material on the positive electrode material. In addition, the introduction of a small amount of polymer and lithium salt is beneficial to increase the mechanical strength and ionic conductivity of the coating layer, thereby increasing the coating effect. This method provides an effective reference for the practical application of material modification methods in the future. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of the above problems existing in the prior art, a cationic surfactant-coated lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode material and a preparation method thereof are provided.

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is specifically achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0007] A method for preparing a surfactant-coated modified lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode material comprises the following steps:

[0008] (1) dissolving a certain amount of surfactant, polymer, and lithium salt in a solvent and fully dissolving and dispersing them to obtain solution A;

[0009] (2) adding a certain amount of lithium-rich manganese-based cathode material to a solvent and fully stirring and dispersing the material under ultrasound to obtain solution B;

[0010] (3) adding solution A to solution B at a uniform rate over a certain period of time, and continuously stirring for a certain period of time to obtain a mixed solution, heating the mixed solution in an oil bath to evaporate all the solvent, collecting and grinding the solid particles, and heat-treating the solid particles under a protective atmosphere to obtain a surfactant-coated modified lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode material.

[0011] Preferably, the surfactant in step (1) is at least one of lithium dodecyl sulfate, hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide, and lithium dodecylbenzenesulfonate.

[0012] Preferably, the polymer in step (1) is at least one of PVDF, PVDF-HFP, and PVDF-CTFE.

[0013] Preferably, the lithium salt described in step (1) is at least one of LiFSI, LiPF6, and LiNO3.

[0014] Preferably, the solvent in step (1) is at least one of DMF and NMP.

[0015] Preferably, the concentration of the surfactant in step (1) is 0.4-1 g / L, and the mass ratio of the surfactant, polymer and lithium salt is 1:0.02-0.10:0.02-0.10.

[0016] Preferably, the solvent and amount in step (2) are the same as those in step (1).

[0017] Preferably, the amount of lithium-rich manganese-based material added in step (2) is 15-50 g / L.

[0018] Preferably, the time for uniformly adding solution A to solution B in step (3) is 15-45 minutes, the stirring reaction time is 2-4 hours, and the reaction temperature is 15-25°C.

[0019] Preferably, the heating and evaporation time in the oil bath in step (3) is 4-6 hours.

[0020] Preferably, the solid particles described in step (3) are treated under a protective atmosphere, which is one of argon and nitrogen, and the temperature is increased to 150-200°C at 5°C / min and kept warm for 4-6h.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of the present invention has the following advantages:

[0022] The present invention utilizes cationic surfactants as coating materials, and controls the content of the coating and the crystal size of the coating through a simple liquid phase coating method, so as to coat the coating on the lithium-rich manganese-based surface. Cationic surfactants act as coating agents to prevent the lithium-rich manganese-based particles from contacting the electrolyte, thereby reducing side reactions on the surface of the lithium-rich manganese-based particles. On the other hand, the present invention utilizes the advantage of cationic surfactants in reducing the surface tension of the liquid, thereby enhancing the wettability of the liquid on the solid surface, and achieves the purpose of uniformly coating the lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode particles through a simple liquid phase coating method. In addition, the application of a small amount of polymers and lithium salts makes the coating layer have higher mechanical strength and greater ionic conductivity. This will provide an effective reference for the practical application of uniformly coating positive electrode materials with coatings. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
