[0002] Compared with traditional graphite negative electrode materials, silicon-based negative electrode materials have become a hot research field due to their theoretical capacity.

[0042] The silicon-carbon negative electrode material provided by the application comprises a core and a coating layer coated on the surface of the core, the material of the core is silicon-carbon material, and the material of the coating layer comprises modified polymer material, the modified polymer material is obtained by reaction of hydrophilic polymer and small molecule auxiliary agent, wherein the solubility parameter of the coating layer is 10.2 J 1 / 2 ·cm -3 / 2 -45J 1 / 2 ·cm -3 / 2 The coating layer, on the one hand, can maintain good dispersibility of the silicon-carbon negative electrode material in the homogenization process, and simultaneously, as a protective layer of the silicon-carbon material, effectively avoids reaction of the silicon-carbon material with water, thereby effectively reducing gas production of the silicon-carbon negative electrode material, reducing loss of effective active material, and further improving cycle performance and service life of the battery; on the other hand, in the process of preparing the electrode and use, can reduce gas production caused by contact of the silicon-carbon negative electrode material with electrolyte, improve interface stability of the electrode and the electrolyte, thereby being able to more effectively resist erosion of the electrolyte, reduce volume expansion in the charging and discharging process, reduce rupture and peeling of the electrode material, enhance mechanical stability of the electrode, and improve cycle stability and service life of the battery.
[0043] In addition, the hydrophilic groups carried by the hydrophilic polymer itself are prone to interact with the silicon material in the silicon-carbon material, but the force of action with the carbon material is weak, while the hydrophobic chain of the introduced small molecule additive has a higher interaction force with the carbon material in the silicon-carbon material, so under the synergistic effect, the interaction force between the silicon-carbon material and the coating layer as a whole can be enhanced, further effectively relieving the problem of volume expansion of the silicon-carbon negative electrode material, and then improving the cycle stability and service life of the battery.

[0084] Specifically, the mixture is first subjected to spray drying to obtain a crude product, and then the crude product is subjected to vacuum drying to obtain the silicon-carbon negative electrode material.
[0085] In an embodiment, before the drying process, the mixture is further subjected to mechanical stirring at room temperature for 15-60min, and specifically, the mechanical stirring time can be 15min, 20min, 25min, 40min, 55min or 60min.
[0086] In an embodiment, the solvent is selected from an organic solvent or a mixed solvent comprising an organic solvent and water, and preferably, the solvent is a mixed solvent comprising an organic solvent and water, wherein the volume ratio of the organic solvent to the water in the mixed solvent is 1:0.01-0.01:1, and specifically, the volume ratio can be 1:0.01 or 0.01:1.

[0088] The preparation method of the silicon-carbon negative electrode material provided by the application introduces a small-molecule additive to modify the hydrophilic polymer in situ, controls the hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties of the hydrophilic polymer, and makes the solubility parameter of the obtained coating layer 10.2 J 1 / 2 ·cm -3 / 2 -45J 1 / 2 ·cm -3 / 2 , and the hydrophilic groups and the hydrophobic groups have a specific ratio, so that the prepared silicon-carbon negative electrode material has good dispersibility in the homogenization process, can effectively reduce the gas production, can improve the mechanical stability of the electrode in the preparation of the electrode and the use process, thereby improving the cycle stability and service life of the battery, and the method is simple and suitable for industrial production.

[0113] Comparative Example 1
[0114] Comparative Example 1 is the same as Example 1 except that the step of preparing the mixture does not include the addition of octanoic acid. The calculated solubility parameter of the coating layer in the silicon-carbon negative electrode material is 28.1 J 1 / 2 · cm -3 / 2 .
[0115] Comparative Example 2
[0116] Comparative Example 2 is the same as Example 1 except that the step of preparing the mixture uses acetic acid instead of octanoic acid. The calculated solubility parameter of the coating layer in the silicon-carbon negative electrode material is 27.9 J 1 / 2 · cm -3 / 2 .
[0117] Comparative Example 3
[0118] Comparative Example 3 is the same as Example 1 except that the step of preparing the mixture uses octane instead of octanoic acid. The calculated solubility parameter of the coating layer in the silicon-carbon negative electrode material is 28.2 J 1 / 2 · cm -3 / 2 .
[0119] Example 1 is used as a blank control. The silicon-carbon negative electrode materials prepared in Examples 1-8 and Comparative Examples 1-3, as well as the blank control, are subjected to gas production testing and soft pack battery testing.
[0120] The gas production testing method is as follows: 5 g of the material to be tested and 50 g of water are added to a sealed bottle, and the mixture is fully dissolved by centrifugal stirring. The mixture is then placed in a 25°C constant temperature room, and the amount of gas (H2) produced in 24 hours on the first day, the third day, the fifth day, and the seventh day is tested. The results are shown in Table 1.
[0121] Table 1
[0122]
[0123] As can be seen from Table 1, the blank control silicon-carbon material without a polymer coating has a gas production of about 2.34-2.78 CC / kg / day. Comparative Example 1 is a silicon-carbon material coated with a hydrophilic polymer. Compared with the blank control, the hydrophilic polymer coating modification results in a sharp increase in the amount of gas produced (3.65-4.99 CC / kg / day) due to the corresponding solubility parameter value of 28.1 J 1 / 2 · cm -3 / 2 . Example 1 is a silicon-carbon material coated with a modified polymer material formed by the in-situ reaction of a hydrophilic polymer and a small molecule additive. The remaining hydrophobic segment of the small molecule additive structure effectively reduces the overall hydrophilicity of the polymer after the in-situ reaction of the hydrophilic reaction group in the structure (the corresponding solubility parameter value decreases to 23.2 J1 / 2 · cm -3 / 2 ), thus alleviating the high gas production due to the introduction of hydrophilic polymers, which is further verified by Examples 2-8.
[0124] The soft package test method is as follows: the material to be tested is doped with 80% artificial graphite as a negative electrode; NCM811 ternary material is used as a positive electrode material, LiPF6 is used as a lithium salt, a mixed solvent of EC and DEC in a volume ratio of 1:1 is used as an electrolyte solvent, and Celgard 2400 film is used as a separator to prepare a soft package lithium ion battery, and a cycle test (200 cycle capacity retention rate) is performed. The test conditions are: voltage range 2.5V-4.2V, charge and discharge 1C / 1C. The cycle test results are shown in Table 2.
[0125] Table 2
[0126] 200 % capacity retention Blank control example 89.3 Example 1 94.3 Example 2 93.7 Example 3 93.9 Example 4 95.8 Example 5 95.2 Example 6 96.3 Example 7 98.2 Example 8 94.3 Comparative example 1 92.5 Comparative example 2 93.3 Comparative example 3 93.0
[0127] As can be seen from Table 2, the blank control example, Comparative Example 1 is a hydrophilic polymer coated silicon-carbon material, and the 200 cycle capacity retention rates thereof are 89.3% and 92.5%, respectively. Example 1 is in-situ modified based on Comparative Example 1, which effectively improves the cycle stability of the battery (200 cycle capacity retention rate is 94.3%). At the same time, it can also be seen from Examples 2-8 that the hydrophilic-hydrophobic performance of the hydrophilic polymer can be effectively improved by in-situ modification of the small molecule additive, which can effectively improve the cycle stability of the silicon-carbon negative electrode material.
[0128] In addition, from the data of Example 1 and Comparative Examples 2-3 in Table 2, it can be seen that the structure of the small molecule additive in the present application will affect the hydrophilic-hydrophobic performance of the coating layer and the cycle stability of the battery.
[0129] The dispersion test method is as follows: the silicon-carbon negative electrode material obtained from the blank control example and Example 1 is respectively weighed 5g and put into 80mL water for stirring and dispersion, and the dispersion results are shown in Figure 2 From Figure 2 it can be clearly seen that, since the carbon layer on the surface of the blank control example is a hydrophobic structure, the dispersion in water is poor, and the corresponding gas production value is also low, but this characteristic greatly affects the subsequent processing technology and battery performance; while Example 1, after being coated by the hydrophilic polymer and the small molecule additive, the prepared silicon-carbon negative electrode material is dispersed uniformly and stably in water.
[0130] It can be seen that the hydrophilic polymer with a specific solubility parameter value is in-situ modified by introducing a small molecule additive with a specific structure, the hydrophilic polymer is regulated to have hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties, a coating layer with a specific proportion of hydrophilic groups and hydrophobic groups is formed, and the solubility parameter value of the coating layer is controlled, so that the prepared silicon-carbon negative electrode material not only has good dispersibility in the homogenization process, but also can effectively reduce the gas production, and in the process of preparing the electrode and using, the mechanical stability of the electrode can be improved, thereby improving the cycle stability and service life of the battery.
[0131] The technical features of the above-described embodiments can be combined arbitrarily, and to make the description concise, all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are not described, however, as long as the combinations of the technical features do not exist contradictory, they should be considered as the scope of the present disclosure.
[0132] The above-described embodiments only express several implementation manners of the present application, the description is more specific and detailed, but it should not be understood as a limitation on the scope of the patent. It should be pointed out that for ordinary skilled in the art, without departing from the concept of the present application, a number of modifications and improvements can be made, which are all within the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application patent should be subject to the appended claims.
