Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of electrochemical energy storage, and in particular to a positive electrode material, an electrochemical device using the positive electrode material, and an electronic device using the electrochemical device. BACKGROUND

[0002] Currently, the crystal structure of commercial lithium cobalt oxide is extremely unstable at a voltage higher than 4.6 V, accompanied by severe capacity decay, which makes it difficult to achieve stable cycle performance at high voltage, and limits the commercial application of lithium cobalt oxide. SUMMARY

[0003] The present application provides a positive electrode material capable of improving cycle performance.

[0004] In addition, the present application also provides an electrochemical device using the positive electrode material and an electronic device using the electrochemical device.

[0005] The first aspect of the present application provides a positive electrode material, comprising lithium cobalt oxide and a coating layer formed on the lithium cobalt oxide, the coating layer comprising a sodium superionic conductor and a boron-containing compound, the lithium cobalt oxide having a P 63mc crystal structure, and the lithium cobalt oxide further containing an M 1 element, the M 1 element comprising at least one of Ni or Mn.

[0006] In the present application, the solid-state electrolyte of the sodium superionic conductor can increase the ionic conductivity of the interface, which is conducive to the ion transmission between the lithium cobalt oxide and the electrolyte, and also conducive to reducing the interface impedance, and can also reduce the side reaction between the surface of the lithium cobalt oxide and the electrolyte, thereby improving the cycle performance of the electrochemical device. Moreover, the sodium superionic conductor and the boron-containing compound jointly coat the surface of the lithium cobalt oxide, further inhibiting the direct contact between the lithium cobalt oxide and the electrolyte, thereby reducing the interface side reaction between the lithium cobalt oxide and the electrolyte, and further improving the cycle performance of the electrochemical device. At the same time, the combination of the sodium superionic conductor and the boron-containing compound enables the positive electrode material to maintain a high ionic conductivity while reducing the direct contact between the lithium cobalt oxide and the electrolyte, so that the positive electrode material has both high conductivity and structural stability, and improves the cycle performance of the positive electrode material at high voltage. In addition, the M 1 element doped in the lithium cobalt oxide can improve the stability of the positive electrode material and improve the initial discharge specific capacity and cycle performance of the electrochemical device.

[0007] Based on the first aspect, in some possible implementations, the sodium superionic conductor is Li 1+x Al x Ti 2-x (PO4)3 or Li 1+y Al y Ge 2-y(PO4)3, wherein 0≤x≤0.5, 0≤y≤1. The sodium super ionic conductor has high ionic conductivity and chemical stability. The sodium super ionic conductor coated on the surface of the lithium cobalt oxide can increase the ionic conductivity of the lithium cobalt oxide and the electrolyte, thereby reducing the interface side reaction of the lithium cobalt oxide and the electrolyte and improving the cycle performance of the electrochemical device.

[0008] In some possible implementation manners based on the first aspect, 0 < m1 / m2≤15%, m1 is the amount of substance of M1, and m2 is the sum of the amount of substance of M1 and the amount of substance of Co element. This facilitates the positive electrode material to have better initial charge and discharge specific capacity and cycle performance.

[0009] In some possible implementation manners based on the first aspect, the positive electrode material further comprises M2 element, the M2 element comprises at least one of Mg, Ca, La, Y, Ti and Zr, and the mass ratio of the M2 element in the lithium cobalt oxide is n, 0 < n≤1%. The M2 element can slow down the rapid change of the interlayer spacing when the active ion is deintercalated, thereby stabilizing the layered lithium cobalt oxide. Meanwhile, the M2 element can also reduce the oxygen activity of the positive electrode material, thereby improving the stability of the positive electrode material and further improving the safety and cycle life of the electrochemical device.

[0010] In some possible implementation manners based on the first aspect, the boron-containing compound comprises at least one of a boron-containing oxide or a borate, the boron-containing oxide comprises at least one of B2O3, BO, HBO3 and H3BO3, and the borate comprises at least one of Na2B4O7, NH4H2BO3, CaB2O4 and Mg(B(OH)4)2. The boron-containing oxide can uniformly coat the surface of the lithium cobalt oxide, block the direct contact between the electrolyte and the lithium cobalt oxide, reduce the side reaction, and thereby improve the cycle performance of the electrochemical device.

[0011] In some possible implementation manners based on the first aspect, the mass ratio of the sodium super ionic conductor in the positive electrode material is ω1 based on the mass of the positive electrode material, and 0 < ω1≤1%. This facilitates the positive electrode material to have better specific capacity and lower impedance, and increases the ionic conductivity of the positive electrode material, thereby improving the cycle performance and rate performance of the electrochemical device.

[0012] In some possible implementation manners based on the first aspect, the mass ratio of boron in the boron-containing compound is ω2, and 0 < ω2≤0.5%. This facilitates the boron-containing compound to reduce the influence on the interface impedance as much as possible under the premise of reducing the direct contact between the lithium cobalt oxide and the electrolyte.

[0013] In some possible implementation manners based on the first aspect, 0 < ω1+ ω2≤ 1.5%. This facilitates increasing the ionic conductivity of the positive electrode material, improving the energy density of the electrochemical device, and reducing the side reaction between the lithium cobalt oxide and the electrolyte, thereby reducing the interfacial impedance and improving the cycle performance of the positive electrode material.

[0014] In some possible implementation manners based on the first aspect, the lithium cobalt oxide is a single-crystal particle, and the lithium cobalt oxide has a crack. The presence of the crack can reduce and release the stress generated in the lattice expansion and shrinkage process during the charging and discharging process, thereby inhibiting the rapid expansion of the lattice defects, and thus facilitating the improvement of the structural stability of the positive electrode material.

[0015] In some possible implementation manners based on the first aspect, the sodium super ionic conductor has a median particle size D 50 of 50 nm to 100 nm. This facilitates improving the uniformity of the sodium super ionic conductor coated on the lithium cobalt oxide, and at this particle size, it also facilitates improving the contact area between the sodium super ionic conductor and the lithium cobalt oxide, reducing the risk of the sodium super ionic conductor falling off the lithium cobalt oxide, thereby improving the stability of the sodium super ionic conductor formed on the surface of the lithium cobalt oxide and improving the stability of the positive electrode material.

The positive electrode sheet includes a current collector and a positive electrode material layer disposed on the current collector, and the positive electrode material layer includes a positive electrode material. The lithium cobalt oxide in the positive electrode material is coated with a sodium super ionic conductor and a boron-containing compound on the surface, which can reduce the interfacial impedance, reduce the side reaction between the lithium cobalt oxide and the electrolyte, improve the cycle performance of the positive electrode material at high voltage, and thus improve the cycle life and the charging and discharging rate of the electrochemical device.

[0017] The third aspect of the present application provides an electronic device, which includes an electrochemical device. The electrochemical device supplies power to the electronic device, and the electrochemical device includes a positive electrode material. The lithium cobalt oxide in the positive electrode material is coated with a sodium super ionic conductor and a boron-containing compound on the surface, which can improve the cycle life of the electrochemical device, and thus improve the service life and the charging and discharging rate of the electronic device.

[0024] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and in detail below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application. Unless otherwise defined, all the technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meanings as those commonly understood by the person skilled in the art to which the present application belongs. The terms used in the specification of the present application are only for the purpose of describing the specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present application.

[0025] An electrochemical device according to an embodiment of the present application includes a housing, an electrode assembly, and an electrolyte. The electrode assembly and the electrolyte are both located in the housing.

[0026] The housing can be a packaging bag obtained by packaging with a packaging film (e.g., an aluminum plastic film), such as a soft-pack electrochemical device. In other embodiments, the electrochemical device can also be a steel-can electrochemical device, an aluminum-can electrochemical device, etc.

[0027] The electrode assembly includes a positive electrode sheet, a negative electrode sheet, and a separator. The separator is disposed between the positive electrode sheet and the negative electrode sheet. The electrode assembly can be a stack structure formed by stacking the positive electrode sheet, the separator, and the negative electrode sheet. In other embodiments, the electrode assembly can also be a roll structure formed by stacking and rolling the positive electrode sheet, the separator, and the negative electrode sheet.

[0028] The positive electrode sheet

[0029] The positive electrode sheet includes a positive electrode current collector and a positive electrode material layer. The positive electrode material layer includes a positive electrode material, a binder, and a conductive agent.

[0030] According to some embodiments of the present application, the positive electrode current collector can be a metal foil or a composite current collector. For example, an aluminum foil or a nickel foil can be used. The composite current collector can be formed by forming a metal material (copper, copper alloy, nickel, nickel alloy, titanium, titanium alloy, silver, and silver alloy, etc.) on a polymer substrate.

[0031] This application provides a cathode material comprising lithium cobalt oxide and a coating layer formed on the lithium cobalt oxide. The coating layer comprises a sodium superionic conductor and a boron-containing compound. The lithium cobalt oxide has a P 63mc crystal structure. The lithium cobalt oxide also contains an element M1, wherein M1 includes at least one of Ni or Mn.

[0032] In this application, a sodium superionic conductor and a boron-containing compound are formed on the surface of lithium cobalt oxide. The solid electrolyte of the sodium superionic conductor can increase the ionic conductivity of the interface, which is beneficial for ion transport between lithium cobalt oxide and electrolyte, and also helps to reduce interfacial impedance. Simultaneously, it can reduce side reactions between the lithium cobalt oxide surface and the electrolyte, thereby improving the cycle performance of the electrochemical device. Furthermore, the joint coating of the lithium cobalt oxide surface with the sodium superionic conductor and boron-containing compound further suppresses direct contact between lithium cobalt oxide and electrolyte, thereby reducing interfacial side reactions between lithium cobalt oxide and electrolyte, further improving the cycle performance of the electrochemical device. At the same time, the combination of the sodium superionic conductor and boron-containing compound not only reduces interfacial impedance but also reduces side reactions between lithium cobalt oxide and electrolyte, improving the cycle performance of the cathode material under high voltage. Doping lithium cobalt oxide with M1 element can improve the stability of the cathode material and increase the initial discharge specific capacity and cycle performance of the electrochemical device.

[0033] In this application, sodium superionic conductors (NaSICONs) possess high ionic conductivity and chemical stability. Formed on the surface of lithium cobalt oxide, they can increase ion transport between the cathode material and the electrolyte. However, because sodium superionic conductors do not easily completely coat the surface of lithium cobalt oxide, and considering the low melting point of boron-containing compounds, they readily and uniformly adhere to the surface of lithium cobalt oxide, reducing exposed defect sites and decreasing the specific surface area of ​​the cathode material, thereby reducing interfacial side reactions. The combination of sodium superionic conductors and boron-containing compounds allows the cathode material to maintain high ionic conductivity while also reducing direct contact between lithium cobalt oxide and the electrolyte. This results in a cathode material that balances high conductivity and structural stability, thereby improving the cycle performance of the cathode material.

[0034] In some embodiments, the sodium superionic conductor is Li 1+x Al x Ti 2-x (PO4)3 (abbreviated as LATP) or Li 1+y Al y Ge 2-y(PO4)3 (abbreviated as LAGP), where 0 ≤ x ≤ 0.5 and 0 ≤ y ≤ 1. Sodium superionic conductors have high ionic conductivity, low toxicity, and high chemical stability. Coating lithium cobalt oxide with sodium superionic conductors can significantly increase the ionic conductivity of lithium cobalt oxide and electrolyte, thereby reducing the interfacial side reactions between lithium cobalt oxide and electrolyte and improving the cycling performance of electrochemical devices. For example, the sodium superionic conductor can be Li 1.4 Al 0.4 Ti 1.6 (PO4)3 and Li 1.5 Al 0.5 Ge 1.5 (PO4)3 or at least one of them.

[0035] In some embodiments, 0 < m1 / m2 ≤ 15%, where m1 is the amount of substance of M1 and m2 is the sum of the amount of substance of M1 and the amount of substance of Co element. When the doping amount of M1 in lithium cobalt oxide is within the above range, it is beneficial for the cathode material to have better first charge-discharge specific capacity and cycling performance. If the value of m1 / m2 is relatively large, such as when the content of Mn element is relatively high, Mn is doped in lithium cobalt oxide in the form of Mn 4+ , and it shows electrochemical inertness with stable electrochemical performance during charge-discharge processes, which will reduce the discharge specific capacity of the cathode material; if the content of Ni element is relatively high, it increases the probability of Ni element mixing and reduces the structural stability of the cathode material, thus affecting the cycling performance of the cathode material. In some embodiments, the ratio of m1 / m2 can be 1%, 3%, 5%, 7%, 9%, 11%, 13%, 15% or any value within the range composed of any two of the above values.

[0036] In some embodiments, the cathode material further contains M2 element, and M2 element includes at least one of Mg, Ca, La, Y, Ti or Zr. The mass ratio of M2 element in lithium cobalt oxide is n, and 0 < n ≤ 1%. Adding M2 element to the cathode material can slow down the rapid change of the layer spacing during the insertion and extraction of active ions, thereby stabilizing the layered lithium cobalt oxide. At the same time, the doped M2 element can also reduce the oxygen activity of the cathode material, thereby improving the stability of the cathode material and further enhancing the safety and cycling life of the electrochemical device. If there is too much M2 element doped in lithium cobalt oxide, it will generate resistance to the insertion and extraction of active ions, affecting the insertion and extraction and transmission of active ions. In some embodiments, n can be 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.3%, 0.4%, 0.5%, 0.6%, 0.7%, 0.8%, 0.9%, 1% or any value within the range composed of any two of the above values.

[0037] In some embodiments, the boron-containing compound includes at least one of boron oxides or borates. Boron oxides include at least one of B₂O₃, BO, HB₂O₃, and H₃BO₃, while borates include at least one of Na₂B₄O₇, NH₄H₂B₂O₃, CaB₂O₄, and Mg(B(OH)₄)₂. The aforementioned boron oxides can uniformly coat the surface of lithium cobalt oxide, preventing direct contact between the electrolyte and the lithium cobalt oxide, reducing side reactions, and thereby improving the cycle performance of the electrochemical device.

[0038] In some embodiments, the mass ratio of sodium superionic conductors is ω1, where 0 < ω1 ≤ 1%, based on the mass of the cathode material. Within this range, sodium superionic conductors in lithium cobalt oxide can increase the ionic conductivity of the cathode material while maintaining good specific capacity and low impedance, thereby improving the cycle performance and rate performance of the electrochemical device. If the mass ratio of sodium superionic conductors in the cathode material is large, i.e., a large number of sodium superionic conductors are formed on the surface of lithium cobalt oxide, it will not only reduce the specific capacity of the cathode material, but also increase the impedance of the cathode material since sodium superionic conductors are not electrochemical, affecting the cycle performance and rate performance of the cathode material. In some embodiments, ω1 can be 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.3%, 0.4%, 0.5%, 0.6%, 0.7%, 0.8%, 0.9%, 1%, or any value within the range of any two of the above values.

[0039] In some embodiments, based on the mass of the cathode material, the mass ratio of boron in the boron-containing compound is ω2, where 0 < ω2 ≤ 0.5%. The boron-containing compound has poor conductivity and its effect on improving the electrical performance of the cathode material is not significant. Within the above-mentioned range, the mass ratio of boron in the boron-containing compound aims to minimize the impact on interfacial impedance after coating with the boron-containing compound, while reducing direct contact between lithium cobalt oxide and the electrolyte. If the mass ratio of boron in the boron-containing compound is large, it will increase the mass of the boron-containing compound, significantly increasing the interfacial impedance between the cathode material and the electrolyte, thereby worsening the impedance of the electrochemical device. In some embodiments, ω2 can be 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.3%, 0.4%, 0.5%, or any value within the range of any two of the above values.

[0040] In some embodiments, 0 < ω1 + ω2 ≤ 1.5%. In the cathode material, sodium superionic conductors and boron-containing compounds within the above range are beneficial for increasing the ionic conductivity of the cathode material and improving the energy density of the electrochemical device; they can also reduce interfacial impedance by reducing side reactions between lithium cobalt oxide and the electrolyte, thereby improving the cycle performance of the cathode material. If ω1 + ω2 is large, the content of at least one of sodium superionic conductors and boron-containing compounds will be high, which will reduce the specific capacity of the cathode material and increase the interfacial impedance, thus affecting the cycle performance of the electrochemical device. In some embodiments, ω1 + ω2 can be 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.3%, 0.4%, 0.5%, 0.6%, 0.7%, 0.8%, 0.9%, 1%, 1.1%, 1.2%, 1.3%, 1.4%, 1.5%, or any value within the range of any two of the above values.

[0041] In some embodiments, the lithium cobalt oxide is a single crystal particle, and the lithium cobalt oxide has cracks, such as... Figure 4 As shown, lithium cobalt oxide has a layered structure with internal cracks. Some cracks are located inside the grains, while others extend from the grains to the grain surface. The direction of the cracks is parallel to the transition metal layer (Co layer). The presence of these cracks can reduce and release the stress generated by the lattice expansion and contraction during the charging and discharging process, thereby inhibiting the rapid propagation of lattice defects. This helps to improve the structural stability of the cathode material and improve its electrochemical performance.

[0042] In some embodiments, the median particle size D of the sodium superionic conductor 50 The particle size is 50 nm to 100 nm. Sodium superionic conductors within this nanometer range are advantageous in improving the uniformity of lithium cobalt oxide coating. Furthermore, this particle size also helps increase the contact area between the sodium superionic conductor and the lithium cobalt oxide, reducing detachment and thus improving the stability of the sodium superionic conductor formed on the lithium cobalt oxide surface, thereby enhancing the stability of the cathode material. In some embodiments, the median particle size D of the sodium superionic conductor... 50 It can be 50nm, 55nm, 60nm, 65nm, 70nm, 75nm, 80nm, 85nm, 90nm, 95nm, 100nm, or any value within the range of any two of the above values.

[0043] This application also provides a method for preparing a cathode material, including the following steps:

[0044] (1) Refine the NaSiICON solid electrolyte.

[0045] Ball milling of NaSiCON solid electrolyte refines its particle size, making it easier for NaSiCON solid electrolyte to coat lithium cobalt oxide.

[0046] (2) The refined NaSiICON solid electrolyte and lithium cobalt oxide are mixed and dispersed in a solvent to obtain a suspension.

[0047] The solid-liquid mass ratio of the suspension is 1:0.5 to 1:5, which is beneficial to improving the uniformity of the NaSi IC ON solid electrolyte coating on lithium cobalt oxide.

[0048] (3) The suspension is dried so that the NaSICON solid electrolyte is coated on the surface of the lithium cobalt oxide to obtain an intermediate; the intermediate and the boron-containing compound are mixed evenly and then annealed.

[0049] Methods for drying suspensions include either spray drying or rotary evaporation drying.

[0051] Boron-containing compounds include at least one of boron oxides or borates. Boron oxides include at least one of B₂O₃, BO, HBO₃, and H₃B₂O₃, while borates include at least one of Na₂B₄O₇, NH₄H₂B₂O₃, CaB₂O₄, and Mg(B(OH)₄)₂. When boric acid is used as the coating material, its low melting point (approximately 171°C) allows it to melt and form a liquid during preparation, uniformly adhering to the surface of the lithium cobalt oxide. Simultaneously, during the coating process, boric acid can remove residual lithium from the surface of the lithium cobalt oxide, thereby optimizing the capacity and cycle life of the electrochemical device and improving the stability of the coated lithium cobalt oxide.

[0052] (4) The annealed material is sieved and dispersed to obtain the positive electrode material.

[0053] The adhesive in the positive electrode material layer is used to bond the positive electrode material particles, thereby facilitating the formation of the film layer, and also improving the bonding force between the positive electrode material layer and the positive electrode current collector.

[0080] Li was prepared by solid-state reaction method. 1.4 Al 0.4 Ti1.6 (PO4)3(LATP) and Li 1.5 Al 0.5 Ge 1.5 (PO4)3(LAGP)NaSICON solid electrolyte powder. The preparation process is as follows:

[0081] Preparation of Li 1.4 Al 0.4 Ti 1.6 (PO4)3(LATP): According to Li 1.4 Al 0.4 Ti 1.6 The stoichiometric proportions of raw materials Li₂C₂O₄, Al(NO₃)₂·9H₂O, TiO₂, and NH₄H₂PO₄ were weighed out for (PO₄)₃. The weighed raw materials were placed in a ball mill jar and ball-milled to ensure thorough and homogeneous mixing. The mixed raw materials were then placed in a high-temperature furnace and held at 400°C for 2 hours to induce thermal decomposition, which promotes the chemical reaction. The sample was then heated to 800°C and held for 10 hours to further promote the reaction and crystal formation. After cooling, LATP solid electrolyte powder was obtained.

[0082] Preparation of Li 1.5 Al 0.5 Ge 1.5 (PO4)3(LAGP): Preparation of Li 1.5 Al 0.5 Ge 1.5 Methods and preparation of (PO4)3(LAGP) Li 1.4 Al 0.4 Ti 1.6 The steps are the same as those for (PO4)3(LATP), except that TiO2 is replaced with GeO2.

[0083] (2) Preparation of lithium cobalt oxide

[0084] Cobalt sulfate, nickel sulfate, and manganese sulfate were weighed in a molar ratio of 90:5:5 and dissolved in deionized water by rapid stirring. After thorough mixing, ammonium carbonate was added to adjust the pH of the solution to 8-9, ensuring a complete reaction and producing a uniform carbonate precipitate. The precipitate was sintered at 650℃ for 12 hours, followed by crushing and sieving to obtain a metal oxide precursor. Sodium carbonate was mixed with the metal oxide precursor in a molar ratio of 0.45:1 and held at 850℃ for 48 hours. After cooling, it was crushed and sieved to obtain a sodium cobalt oxide precursor. The sodium cobalt oxide precursor, lithium nitrate, and lithium hydroxide were mixed in a molar ratio of 1:2:3 and reacted at 250℃ for 6 hours. After cooling, a mixture containing lithium cobalt oxide was obtained. The mixture was then crushed and washed repeatedly with deionized water to remove soluble sodium and lithium salts. After washing with deionized water until the conductivity of the supernatant is less than 200 uS / cm, the residual solid is centrifuged, dried and graded to finally obtain layered lithium cobalt oxide.

[0085] The elemental composition was determined using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP), and the chemical formula of the resulting layered lithium cobalt oxide was Li. 0.9 Na 0.003 Co 0.9 Ni 0.05 Mn 0.05 O2. Figure 1 XRD analysis of the obtained layered lithium cobalt oxide, compared with standard PDF cards, showed that the material is a pure phase material with a P 63mc (No. 186) crystal structure.

[0086] (3) Preparation of cathode materials

[0087] LATP powder was ball-milled in a ball mill jar to refine the powder, resulting in a median particle size of 50–100 nm, such as 73 nm, to improve the uniformity of LATP coating. The refined LATP material was then mixed with the prepared lithium cobalt oxide, with LATP accounting for 0.3% of the cathode material by mass. Deionized water was added at a solid-liquid mass ratio of 1:1, and the mixture was stirred until homogeneous, resulting in a suspension. The mass ratio of the suspension was 1:2. The suspension was then spray-dried to remove moisture, ensuring that LATP was uniformly distributed on the surface of the layered lithium cobalt oxide material.

[0088] The lithium cobalt oxide obtained through spray drying was weighed and mixed with boric acid (boron source) in a specific mass ratio, wherein the boron element accounted for 0.3% of the cathode material by mass. The uniformly mixed material was placed in a box furnace and annealed at 200°C. During annealing, the boric acid melted and uniformly coated the material surface. After cooling, the annealed product was sieved through a 200-mesh sieve to obtain the cathode material.

[0089] The cathode material prepared in Example 1 was tested using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), such as... Figure 2 As shown, the LATP-coated particles on the surface of the cathode material are clearly visible. Figure 3 The surface EDS test results of the cathode material in Example 1 are given. The line scan was performed along the direction of the dashed arrow. LATP was mainly coated on the material surface in a dotted form, while boron was uniformly coated on the entire material surface.

[0090] Furthermore, the material was cut using a plasma beam, and the morphology of the grain cross-section was observed using SEM. The test results are as follows: Figure 4 As shown, Figure 4 Cracks exist in the single crystal particles of lithium cobalt oxide (e.g.) Figure 4 (In the middle elliptical dashed line), some cracks are located inside the grains, and some cracks extend from inside the grains to the grain surface. The direction of the cracks is parallel to the transition metal layer (Co layer). The presence of these cracks can reduce and release the stress generated by the lattice expansion and contraction process during charging and discharging, thereby inhibiting the rapid propagation of lattice defects. This is beneficial to improving the structural stability of the cathode material and improving the electrochemical performance of the electrochemical device.

[0091] Preparation of lithium-ion batteries:

[0092] The battery cell has a design size of 5 mm × 32 mm × 77 mm and a design capacity of 2 Ah.

[0093] Preparation of the positive electrode sheet: The positive electrode material prepared in Example 1, conductive carbon (SP), and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) were mixed in a weight ratio of 97.6:1.1:1.3 and thoroughly stirred in an N-methylpyrrolidone solvent system to obtain a positive electrode slurry. The obtained positive electrode slurry was coated onto a positive electrode current collector aluminum foil, dried, and cold-pressed to obtain the positive electrode sheet.

[0094] Preparation of the negative electrode sheet: Commercial graphite, conductive carbon (SP), sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), and styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) were mixed in a weight ratio of 96:1:1.5:1.5. An appropriate amount of water was added to adjust the viscosity of the slurry to 4000-6000 Pa·s, thus preparing the negative electrode slurry. The prepared negative electrode slurry was coated onto a copper foil used as a negative electrode current collector, dried, and cold-pressed to obtain the negative electrode sheet.

[0095] The positive and negative electrode sheets have a unit area capacity of approximately 2.6 mAh cm⁻¹. -2 and 2.7mAh cm -2The corresponding negative / positive capacity ratio (N / P) is approximately 1.045. The positive and negative electrode sheets are separated using a 7µm polyethylene (PE) separator via a winding process. Ethylene carbonate / propylene carbonate / diethylene carbonate / propyl propionate (EC / PC / DEC / PP) in a volume ratio of 1:1:1:1 is mixed, and 1M LiPF6 is added to the solvent and mixed thoroughly. Then, 5wt.% fluoroolefin carbonate (FEC) and 2wt.% 1,3,6-hexamethylenetrionitrile (HTCN) are added as electrolyte additives, resulting in an electrolyte retention coefficient of 1.6 g / Ah. After aging, formation, and capacity testing, a lithium-ion battery is manufactured.

[0097] The difference between Example 2 and Example 1 is that LATP is replaced with an equal amount of LAGP, while the rest of the preparation process is exactly the same as in Example 1.

[0098] Examples 3 to 8

[0099] The difference from Example 1 is that in the preparation step of layered lithium cobalt oxide, sodium carbonate and precursor are mixed evenly at a molar ratio of 0.45:1, and 0.2% Ca is incorporated in the form of Ca(OH)2. The boron coating amount in LATP and boron-containing compounds is adjusted according to Table 1. The rest of the preparation process is exactly the same as in Example 1.

[0100] Examples 9 to 14

[0101] The difference from Example 1 is that the Ni and Mn doping concentrations in the coprecipitation precursor material were adjusted, and 0.3% La was incorporated in the form of nano-La2O3 during the sintering process at 850℃.

[0102] Examples 15 to 24

[0103] The difference from Example 1 is that the Ni and Mn doping concentrations in the co-precipitated precursor material were adjusted, and doping elements other than Ni and Mn were introduced during the sintering process at 850°C. Mg, Y, Ti and Zr elements were introduced in the form of nano MgO, nano Y2O3, nano TiO2 and nano ZrO2, respectively. The coating amounts of LATP and boric acid were also adjusted. The specific material composition is shown in Table 1.

[0104] Comparative Example 1

[0105] The difference from Example 1 is that, in the process of preparing lithium cobalt oxide, the metal oxide precursor was not doped with metal elements other than Co, such as Ni and Mn, and the lithium cobalt oxide was not coated. The specific material composition is shown in Table 1.

[0108] Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to test the cathode material of Comparative Example 2, such as... Figure 5 As shown, the surface of the lithium cobalt oxide material is relatively smooth, while in Example 1 ( Figure 2 The presence of clearly visible coated particles on the surface indicates that LATP has been coated onto lithium cobalt oxide.

[0109] Comparative Examples 3 to 5

[0110] The difference from Example 1 is that the precursor is doped with Ni and Mn elements, and the surface of the lithium cobalt oxide is coated with only one of NaSICON solid electrolyte or boron-containing compound. The specific material composition is shown in Table 1.

[0111] Performance testing

[0112] The XRD testing method includes: using an X-ray powder diffractometer (XRD, instrument model: Bruker D 8 ADVANCE) to test the cathode material, wherein the target material is Cu Kα, the test voltage is 40KV, the test current is 35mA, the scanning angle range is 10° to 90°, and the scanning rate is 0.02° / s.

[0113] The inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP) testing method includes: using an inductively coupled plasma spectrometer (ICP, instrument model: PE Optima 7000DV) to test the content of elements such as Li and transition metals in the cathode material. First, weigh an appropriate amount of powder sample, add about 10 mL of aqua regia, and heat in a plate heater at about 185℃ for 30 to 50 minutes to ensure complete digestion of the sample, and then perform the test on the instrument.

[0114] The SEM testing method includes: taking material powder, observing it using a ZEI SS SEM (Sigma-02-33), and performing elemental composition testing by EDS linear scanning.

[0115] To observe internal defects within grains, a slicing machine is used to slice the positive electrode sheet, obtaining a cross-section perpendicular to the surface of the positive current collector. A scanning electron microscope is then used to capture the cross-sectional backscattered image. Cracks within the grain can be observed on the cross-section; in the cross-sectional image, closed areas of a different color from the surrounding area are the cracks.

[0116] The performance of the lithium secondary batteries prepared in Examples 1-24 and Comparative Examples 1-5 was evaluated using the following methods, and the specific test results are listed in Table 1.

[0117] The test steps for initial charge / discharge efficiency include:

[0118] At room temperature (25°C), the lithium-ion battery was charged to 4.4V at 1.3C, and then further charged to 4.55V at 0.7C. The voltage was then maintained at a constant 4.55V until the current dropped to 0.05C. It was then discharged to 3.0V at 0.5C. This process was repeated twice, and the specific capacity of the cathode material was calculated based on the discharge capacity from the second discharge.

[0119] The battery cycle performance testing steps include:

[0120] At room temperature (25°C), the lithium-ion battery was charged to 4.4V at 2C, and then further charged to 4.55V at 1.3C. The voltage was then maintained at a constant 4.55V until the current dropped to 0.05C. It was then discharged to 3.0V at 1C. This charge-discharge cycle was repeated 300 times. The discharge capacity of the battery after 300 cycles was recorded, where C represents the current rate, 1C = 2A. The capacity retention rate was calculated using the following formula: Capacity retention rate = (Discharge capacity of the 300th cycle / Discharge capacity of the third cycle) * 100%.

[0121] Table 1

[0122]

[0123]

[0124] As can be seen from Table 1 above, compared with the uncoated lithium cobalt oxide in Comparative Example 1, the cycle performance of the lithium-ion batteries assembled with cathode materials coated with sodium superionic conductors and boron compounds in Examples 1 to 24 is improved. This indicates that the surface of the lithium cobalt oxide is coated with sodium superionic conductors and boron compounds, which is beneficial to improving the cycle performance of the cathode material.

[0125] Compared to Comparative Example 1, Comparative Example 2 contains lithium cobalt oxide doped with Ni and Mn elements. Comparative Example 2 shows improvements in both initial discharge specific capacity and 300-cycle retention rate, indicating that Ni and Mn elements affect the initial discharge specific capacity and cycle performance of the cathode material.

[0126] Compared to Comparative Examples 3 to 5, which only used either a sodium superionic conductor or a boron-containing compound to coat lithium cobalt oxide, Examples 1 and 2 used both a sodium superionic conductor and a boron-containing compound to coat lithium cobalt oxide. Table 1 shows that individual coating and co-coating have little impact on the initial discharge specific capacity of the cathode material, but the difference in cycle stability is very significant. The individually coated sample retained only about 60% of its capacity after 300 cycles, while the co-coated sample significantly improved to over 75%. This indicates that only when NaSiO2 solid electrolytes (LATP and LAGP) and boron-containing compounds (H3BO3) are co-coated can the cycle stability of the material be significantly improved.

[0127] NaSICON solid electrolyte material possesses relatively stable physicochemical properties and high conductivity, making it an excellent material for coating lithium cobalt oxide. However, due to the difficulty in forming a uniform coating layer on the surface of lithium cobalt oxide, complete coating is not easily achieved, leading to the presence of localized exposed defect sites on the lithium cobalt oxide, which affects the coating effect. When using boron-containing compounds such as H3BO3 for coating, H3BO3 has a low melting point (approximately 171℃). When the coating temperature exceeds its melting point, H3BO3 melts into a liquid state and uniformly adheres to the material surface, thereby reducing the number of exposed defect sites on the material surface, lowering the specific surface area of ​​the material, and thus reducing the direct contact between the cathode material and the electrolyte, avoiding the occurrence of interfacial side reactions. Furthermore, statistical analysis in this application shows that the specific surface area of ​​lithium cobalt oxide materials coated with H3BO3 is reduced by an average of 0.2–0.4 μm compared to uncoated materials. 2 / g. The coating layer includes both NaSICON and boron-containing compounds. NaSICON has high conductivity, which can improve the problem of increased interfacial impedance of the cathode material due to the poor conductivity of H3BO3. H3BO3 easily forms a uniform coating on the surface of lithium cobalt oxide, which can improve the problem of NaSICON not easily forming a uniform coating on the surface of lithium cobalt oxide. This gives the cathode material the advantages of high conductivity and stability, thereby improving the cycle stability of the cathode material.

[0128] In particular, when 0 < ω1 ≤ 1%, 0 < ω2 ≤ 0.5%, or 0 < ω1 + ω2 ≤ 1.5%, it is beneficial for ion transport, suppresses the increase in the impedance of the cathode material, and thus improves the cycle stability of the cathode material.

[0129] In Examples 9 to 14, the doping amounts of Ni and Mn also affected the initial discharge specific capacity and cycle performance of the cathode material. The doping amount of Ni had a relatively small negative impact on the initial discharge specific capacity of the cathode material, but Mn doping reduced the specific capacity. In the cathode material, Mn is primarily used for doping. 4+It is doped into the lattice in a form that cannot be changed during the charge and discharge process, showing electrochemical inertness. As the total amount of Ni and Mn doping increases, the cycle capacity retention rate of the positive electrode material first increases and then decreases. When the total doping amount of Ni and Mn is below 15%, the positive electrode material still has good initial discharge specific capacity and cycle stability.

[0130] In Examples 15 to 18, on the basis of doping Ni and Mn in lithium cobalt oxide, M2 element is also doped. When 0 < n ≤ 1%, the comprehensive electro-performance improvement effect of lithium cobalt oxide is better.

[0131] In Examples 19 to 24, on the basis of doping Ni and Mn in lithium cobalt oxide, different M2 elements or multiple metal elements are co-doped, and the corresponding positive electrode materials all have good cycle capacity retention rates.

[0132] The above-disclosed is only the preferred embodiment of the present application. Of course, the present application cannot be limited by this. Therefore, the equivalent changes made according to the present application still fall within the scope covered by the present application.
