Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of battery materials, and particularly relates to a molybdenum-doped double-coated high-voltage nickel-manganese binary cathode material and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] In order to maximize the performance of cathode materials while achieving high energy density and low cost, more and more researchers in the battery industry have begun to focus on layered cathode materials with high nickel (Ni), low cobalt (Co), or no cobalt (Co). However, due to the rarity of current cobalt ores, their lack and uneven distribution in the earth's crust, they are restricted by high costs and ecological unfriendliness problems. Therefore, developing new cathode materials and reducing or even abandoning the use of cobalt in the battery industry is an inevitable trend in the research and development of high specific energy power batteries. Medium and low nickel content cathode materials such as NCM-523 and NCM-622 have occupied a large share in the global production of ternary cathodes due to their high thermal stability, long cycle life, and low manufacturing cost. In this context, it is very attractive to remove Co from medium and low nickel layered cathodes without affecting their performance. However, due to the absence of cobalt elements, the performance of cobalt-free binary cathode materials is poor. In addition, the higher the nickel content of the material, although the energy density is greater, the relative amount of residual alkali on the surface is more, and the cycle performance and thermal stability of the material become worse, making it difficult to meet the requirements of today's market. During the Li + insertion and extraction process, the layered material structure is in an extremely unstable state, and the cobalt-free binary is more likely to undergo irreversible phase transformation, generating a large number of microcracks, resulting in a large number of side reactions when the electrolyte contacts the new surface of the material.

[0031] The technical solution of the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.

[0032] Example 1

[0033] (1) First, prepare a 2 mol / L metal ion solution with a nickel-manganese molar ratio of 3:1. Dissolve NiSO4·6H2O and MnSO4·H2O in distilled water. Add the 2 mol / L metal ion solution, 2 mol / L ammonia solution, and 4 mol / L sodium hydroxide solution into the reactor at controlled flow rates. Maintain the pH value of the reactor at 11 and perform a coprecipitation reaction. 50When the particles grew to 6.5 μm, the reaction was stopped, filtered, washed with distilled water, and dried to obtain Ni 0.75 Mn 0.25 (OH)2 precursor.

[0034] (2) Ni was added at a ratio of (Ni+Mn):Mo=0.99:0.01 0.75 Mn 0.25 The (OH)2 precursor was dispersed in ammonium molybdate (water solution, then stirred vigorously at 80 ° C until the solvent was completely evaporated, and dried in an oven at 120 ° C to obtain (Ni 0.75 Mn 0.25 ) 0.99 Mo 0.01 (OH)2 precursor.

The obtained powder mixture was calcined at 600 ° C for 8 hours to obtain the positive electrode material Li (Ni 0.75 Mn 0.25 ) 0.99 Mo 0.01 O2@Al.

[0037] (5) In terms of molar ratio, 25 mg of pyrrole monomer and sodium p-toluenesulfonate were mixed at a ratio of 3:1 (mol / mol) under constant stirring, and an appropriate amount of anhydrous ethanol was added. 5 g of positive electrode material Li (Ni 0.75 Mn 0.25 ) 0.99 Mo 0.01 O2@Al was dissolved in the mixture and stirred continuously, and then the mixture was ultrasonically treated for 30 minutes. Then, under continuous stirring, FeCl3 anhydrous ethanol solution (100mg FeCl3 dissolved in 10ml anhydrous ethanol) was added dropwise to initiate polymerization. The reaction was stirred continuously in an ice bath for 6 hours, filtered, washed with anhydrous ethanol, and dried in a vacuum oven at 60℃ for 12 hours to obtain the positive electrode material Li(Ni 0.75 Mn 0.25 ) 0.99 Mo 0.01 O2@Al-PPy.
