Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of lithium battery positive electrode materials, and in particular to a composite solid electrolyte coated modified positive electrode material, a preparation method and applications thereof. Background Art
[0002] For nickel-based ternary materials, increasing nickel content is the main means to increase material specific capacity and improve battery energy density, but research has found that increasing the nickel content of the material will cause a series of problems. As the nickel content increases, the Li / Ni mixing becomes more severe, which will hinder the Li + transport; at the same time, the high nickel content will also aggravate the side reactions of the material with water and oxygen during storage, generating residual lithium compounds such as LiOH and Li2CO3, which will cause the slurry to condense during mixing and gas production during the cycle. In addition, during the charge and discharge process, the initial potential of oxygen evolution will decrease with the increase of nickel content, which will cause the phase transition between the layered phase-spinel phase-rock salt phase of the material to be more intense, resulting in cracks inside the particles during the cycle, and the cracking of the intergranular and grain boundaries causes the new surface to be exposed to the electrolyte for side reactions, triggering gas production, causing the capacity to decay rapidly during the cycle and leading to serious safety hazards. In summary, the development of high-nickel ternary positive electrode materials is an inevitable development trend. In order to solve the series of problems brought about by this, the modification research of traditional ternary positive electrode materials is particularly important.
[0003] Surface coating of cathode materials is a common modification method. By coating the surface of the material with a layer of electrochemically active or inert material, direct contact between the electrode and the electrolyte can be isolated, improving the cycling stability of the cathode material. However, the coating layer often has low lithium ion conductivity, resulting in poor rate performance of the cathode material. Solid-state electrolytes, with their high lithium ion conductivity and electrochemical stability, are ideal coating materials.
[0004] Among them, the organic polymer electrolyte coating has a certain elasticity, which can release the internal stress caused by the volume change of the positive electrode material during the charge and discharge process, alleviate the generation of microcracks, and at the same time, its excellent flexibility can prevent the coating from breaking. However, its low room temperature ionic conductivity has limited improvement on ion transport at the interface. In comparison, the inorganic solid electrolyte coating has higher ionic conductivity, but it is not elastic and has difficulty adapting to the volume change of the positive electrode material. It is easy to break and fall off during the cycle. Therefore, a single coating layer is difficult to meet the requirements of comprehensively improving the performance of the positive electrode material. In addition, common solid electrolytes often have complex preparation processes. After a long preparation process, the synthesized solid electrolyte is mixed and sintered with the positive electrode material. The solid electrolyte synthesis and positive electrode material coating are not achieved simultaneously. Therefore, the process is cumbersome, and it is difficult to achieve a better coating effect through non-in situ synthesis, and the improvement of material performance is minimal.
[0005] CN 117558886 A discloses a surface coating strategy and method for a high-nickel layered oxide cathode of a solid-state lithium-ion battery, which proposes to first perform nano-inorganic fast ion conductor dot coating on the surface of high-nickel layered oxide cathode particles, and then perform ultrathin organic conductive polymer coating.
[0006] CN 117691058 A discloses a double-coated sodium-ion battery composite cathode material and its preparation method. The double-coated layer includes an electrolyte layer and a glass layer, which respectively improve ion transport and high-voltage stability at the interface.
[0007] Although the above method obtains a composite coating layer, the coating layer is a double-layer structure, and the uniform distribution of multiple components is not achieved, making it difficult to achieve multi-effect synergistic effects. There are still problems such as poor mechanical strength of the inorganic layer and low ionic conductivity of the organic layer. Moreover, the coating process is cumbersome and the raw material utilization rate is low, resulting in a large amount of resource consumption.
[0008] Therefore, synchronously realizing the synthesis and coating of composite solid electrolytes on the surface of the cathode material can not only greatly reduce resource consumption and production costs, effectively improve the coating effect, but also maximize the electrochemical performance of the cathode material through the synergistic effect of organic and inorganic electrolytes. Summary of the Invention
[0009] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the deficiencies and defects mentioned in the above background technology, and provide a cathode material modified by composite solid electrolyte coating, its preparation method and application. Design a simple preparation process to synchronously realize the in-situ synthesis and coating of organic and inorganic solid electrolytes on the surface of the cathode material, and improve the cycle stability and rate performance of the cathode material.

[0014] Preferably, the inorganic chloride is Li3InCl6;
[0015] Preferably, the organic polymer and the inorganic chloride are synchronously synthesized on the surface of the cathode material matrix and uniformly distributed to form a single-layer composite solid electrolyte coating layer.
[0016] Preferably, the positive electrode material matrix includes any one of lithium iron phosphate, lithium cobaltate, lithium manganate, lithium nickelate, lithium nickel cobaltate, lithium nickel manganate, lithium nickel cobalt manganate, and lithium nickel cobalt aluminum oxide.
[0017] Preferably, the general structural formula of the organic monomer is: Wherein R1 and R2 are alkyl groups with carbon chain lengths greater than or equal to 0 and less than 5.
[0018] Based on a general inventive concept, the present invention also provides a method for preparing the above-mentioned composite solid electrolyte coated modified positive electrode material, comprising the following steps:
[0019] (1) Weighing a certain mass of positive electrode material matrix, organic monomer, LiCl, InCl3, and pyridine and mixing them to obtain a mixture;
[0020] (2) pouring the above mixture into a ball mill and subjecting it to mechanical ball milling;
[0021] (3) The ball-milled mixture is heat-treated in an inert atmosphere until the pyridine is completely volatilized, thereby obtaining a composite solid electrolyte-coated modified positive electrode material.
[0022] In the above-mentioned preparation method, preferably, in step (1), the mass ratio of the organic monomer to the positive electrode material matrix is 0.1-10:100, the mass ratio of LiCl to the positive electrode material matrix is 0.1-10:100, the mass ratio of InCl3 to the positive electrode material matrix is 0.1-10:100, the molar ratio of LiCl to InCl3 is 3:1, and the mass ratio of pyridine to the positive electrode material matrix is 0.5-5:1.
[0023] In the above preparation method, preferably, in step (2), the ball milling process has a rotation speed of 100-500 r / min and a duration of 2-10 h.
[0024] In the above preparation method, preferably, in step (2), the following chemical reaction occurs to obtain the organic polymer and Li3InCl6·xH2O;
[0025] The synthesis route of the organic polymer is to use LiCl as an initiator to initiate a cationic polymerization reaction of the organic monomer in a pyridine solution. The specific reaction equation is as follows:
[0026]
[0027] The synthesis route of Li3InCl6·xH2O is to use LiCl and InCl3 as reactants and the water released from the above monomer polymerization reaction as an intermediate reactant to synthesize the inorganic chloride precursor Li3InCl6·xH2O. The specific reaction equation is as follows:
[0028]
[0029] In the above preparation method, preferably, in step (3), the inorganic chloride precursor Li3InCl6·xH2O prepared in step (2) is heated and dehydrated to obtain the inorganic chloride Li3InCl6. The specific reaction equation is as follows:
[0030]
[0031] In the above preparation method, preferably, in step (3), the heat treatment temperature is 120-500° C. and the duration is 2-5 h.
[0032] The present invention also provides a lithium-ion battery, which comprises the above-mentioned composite solid electrolyte coated modified positive electrode material or the composite solid electrolyte coated modified positive electrode material obtained by the above-mentioned preparation method.
[0033] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0034] (1) The present invention proposes a composite solid electrolyte coated modified positive electrode material, wherein the composite electrolyte is composed of an organic polymer and an inorganic chloride. The organic polymer electrolyte coating layer has a certain elasticity, which can release the internal stress caused by the volume change of the positive electrode material during the charge and discharge process, alleviate the generation of microcracks, and at the same time, its excellent flexibility can avoid the coating layer rupture phenomenon that often occurs in traditional inorganic coated positive electrode materials. The inorganic chloride solid electrolyte coating layer has higher ionic conductivity than the organic polymer, which can effectively improve the ion transport at the interface and enhance the rate performance. Compared with a single solid electrolyte coating layer, the organic and inorganic composite solid electrolyte coating layer has both excellent mechanical strength and high ionic conductivity.
[0035] (2) The present invention proposes a method for preparing a composite solid electrolyte coated modified positive electrode material, which utilizes a carefully designed series of chemical reactions to achieve in-situ synthesis of the coating layer on the positive electrode surface. The method includes the following stages: ① Using LiCl as an initiator, in-situ polymerization of organic monomers on the surface of the positive electrode material is initiated, generating a uniform and compact polymer coating layer; ② LiCl as an initiator does not directly participate in the polymerization reaction, but the water produced by the polymerization reaction induces a reaction between LiCl and InCl3, synthesizing Li3InCl6·xH2O; ③ In the subsequent heat treatment process, Li3InCl6·xH2O is dehydrated, and an inorganic chloride coating layer is synthesized in situ on the positive electrode surface. This series of carefully designed chemical reactions achieves efficient conversion of raw materials. LiCl, the raw material for the synthesis of inorganic chloride, serves as an initiator for the synthesis of organic polymers. At the same time, the water produced by the polymerization reaction participates in the formation of inorganic chloride intermediates, ultimately achieving in-situ synthesis of the composite solid electrolyte coating layer on the surface of the positive electrode material. Compared to traditional multi-step synthesis of multi-layer composite coatings, this method synthesizes a single composite coating layer in a single step. This method is highly innovative and can effectively improve the composite coating effect, resulting in a uniformly distributed and tightly contacted composite coating layer. Furthermore, this method achieves in-situ synthesis of multi-effect coatings through a simple industrial process, which holds great commercial potential.
