[0025] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 is a step flow chart of the preparation method of the magnesium-metal co-doped pre-lithiated silicon-oxygen composite material provided by the application.

[0026] The application provides a preparation method of a magnesium-metal co-doped pre-lithiated silicon-oxygen composite material, which comprises the following specific steps:

[0027] S1, micron silicon powder, silicon dioxide and magnesium powder are provided for ball milling mixing, and lithium carboxymethyl cellulose is added for vacuum high-temperature sintering to obtain a magnesium-doped silicon monoxide precursor;

[0028] S2, the magnesium-doped silicon monoxide precursor is added to a metal salt solution with a mass concentration of 1-10 wt%, filtered, vacuum dried, carbonized after drying to obtain a magnesium-metal co-doped silicon-oxygen material;

[0029] S3, the magnesium-metal co-doped silicon-oxygen material and a pre-lithiation agent are mixed and high-temperature sintered to obtain a pre-lithiated silicon-oxygen material;

[0030] S4, the pre-lithiated silicon-oxygen material and an organic reagent are mixed and coated, dried to obtain a magnesium-metal co-doped pre-lithiated silicon-oxygen composite material.

[0031] Specifically, in S1, the mass ratio of each raw material is silicon powder:silicon dioxide:magnesium powder: lithium carboxymethyl cellulose = (20-25):(40-50):(5-20):(10-20). The ball milling of the silicon powder, silicon dioxide and magnesium powder can improve the uniformity and stability of the material, the ball milling speed is 500-1000 r / min, and the ball milling time is 30-300 min. The mixed material is mixed with the lithium carboxymethyl cellulose, heated, and pressed into a block structure in a molten state, transferred to a vacuum sintering furnace for vacuum high-temperature sintering to generate silicon, silicon monoxide and magnesium silicate, and then the heating is stopped and cooled to obtain a magnesium-doped silicon monoxide precursor providing a stable structure. The lithium carboxymethyl cellulose can act as an electrolyte to play a role in ion transport, effectively improving the energy density, cycle life and safety performance of the lithium battery, thereby improving the overall performance of the lithium battery. Further, the vacuum high-temperature sintering temperature is 1500-2000℃, the sintering time is 1-6h, and the vacuum environment is 1-20Pa. In this step, magnesium-doped pre-lithiated silicon-oxygen is generated by reaction with organic lithium to improve the initial efficiency and power performance.

[0032] Specifically, in S2, the mass ratio of the magnesium-doped silicon monoxide precursor to the metal salt is 100:(1-10), the metal salt includes any one of silver acetate, silver oxalate, silver citrate, silver formate, silver acetate, silver propionate, silver acrylate and silver stearate, and the solvent is deionized water. Metal doping can improve the electronic conductivity of the composite material and improve its fast charging performance. This step also includes carbonization after drying, wherein the carbonization time is 1-6h and the carbonization temperature is 1000-1300℃. In this step, by adding a metal salt solution, a magnesium-metal co-doped silicon-oxygen material is formed, which increases the conductivity and stability of the silicon-oxygen material.

[0033] Specifically, in S3, the mass ratio of the magnesium-metal co-doped silicon-oxygen material and the pre-lithiation reagent is 100: (10-20), the pre-lithiation reagent includes a compound capable of decomposing elemental Li, and specifically, the pre-lithiation reagent includes any one of methyl lithium, ethyl lithium, isopropyl lithium, tert-butyl lithium, n-eicosyl lithium, and phenyl lithium. Further, the sintering temperature is 700-1000°C, and the sintering time is 1-6h. The high-temperature sintering is performed in an argon gas environment as a protective gas. In this step, the pre-lithiation agent is added to perform high-temperature sintering, thereby forming a pre-lithiated silicon-oxygen material and improving the lithium ion conductivity of the material.

[0034] In addition, by adding the metal salt in S2, the magnesium-metal co-doped silicon-oxygen material can reduce the pre-lithiation reaction speed, and the molten metal salt can effectively reduce the heat effect of the pre-lithiation process as a heat-absorbing medium, effectively slow down the rapid progress of the pre-lithiation reaction, effectively prevent the occurrence of local intense pre-lithiation reaction, effectively ensure the uniform and stable pre-lithiation process, solve the problem of uneven and rapid precipitation and growth of silicon grains due to uneven pre-lithiation, and further ensure excellent cycle performance on the basis of improving the initial efficiency.

[0035] Specifically, in S4, the mass ratio of the pre-lithiated silicon-oxygen material and the organic reagent is 100: (1-5). The organic reagent includes any one of acrylic acid-acrylamide copolymer, acrylic acid-acrylamide-acrylonitrile copolymer, and acrylic acid-vinyl-2-hydroxyethanol-acrylamide copolymer. In this step, the surface of the pre-lithiated silicon-oxygen material is coated with a polymer to reduce the gas production and reduce the contact with the electrolyte, thereby improving the storage performance.

[0036] The magnesium-metal co-doped pre-lithiated silicon-oxygen composite material prepared by the method of the present application includes an inner core and an outer shell. The inner core is a magnesium-metal co-doped silicon-oxygen material, and the outer shell is an organic polymer coating layer. The mass ratio of the outer shell is 1-5%. The magnesium content in the inner core is 1-5% by mass, and the metal content is 1-10wt%.

[0083]

[0084] As can be seen from the data in Table 3, the negative electrode sheet rebound rate and resistivity of the magnesium-metal co-doped pre-lithiated silicon-oxygen composite material obtained in Examples 1-3 are significantly lower than those of Comparative Examples 1-3. The experimental results show that the magnesium and its shell-coated metal compound with high electron conductivity in the material of the examples improve the powder conductivity of the material and improve the resistivity of the electrode sheet.

The test results are shown in Table 4.

[0089] Table 4, cycle performance test and rate performance test results of each group of materials

[0090]

[0091] As can be seen from Table 4, the cycle performance of the battery prepared from the magnesium-metal co-doped pre-lithiated silicon-oxygen composite material of the application is significantly better than that of the comparative examples. The experimental results show that the electrode sheet prepared from the composite material has a lower expansion rate and excellent liquid absorption and liquid retention capacity, which reduces the expansion during the charge-discharge process and improves the cycle performance. At the same time, the electrode sheet of the material of the examples has a lower resistivity, which improves the constant current ratio of the material during the charge-discharge process and improves the rate performance.
