[0049] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0050] The core of this application is to provide a method, system, equipment and medium for recovering the working voltage of a lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode.
[0051] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0052] As energy issues are increasingly valued, energy revolutions have been launched in all walks of life. In the field of transportation, the new energy vehicle industry is also undergoing high-quality development. Despite this, the often-mentioned "mileage anxiety" problem is still a technical barrier that prevents consumers from choosing electric vehicles. The endurance of electric vehicles depends on the energy density of power batteries. Among them, the capacity of the positive electrode material is a key part of determining the energy density of power lithium batteries, and the energy density that traditional layered materials can provide is close to the limit. Since its discovery, lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode materials have attracted much attention from researchers. This is because they have an ultra-high discharge specific capacity (>250mAh / g), which can theoretically achieve the construction of 500Wh / kg high energy density batteries. This feature makes lithium-rich manganese-based materials gradually become an ideal choice for positive electrode materials for power batteries.
[0053] It is generally believed that there is a two-phase structure in lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode materials, that is, the lithium-rich phase of Li2MnO3 is dispersed in the traditional layered structure LiTMO2 layered phase. Because of this, lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode materials also have a unique energy storage mechanism. During the first charging process, when the charging voltage is below 4.45V, Li + Ni in the LiTMO2 layered phase is released from the positive electrode material 2+ 、Co 3+ The ions are oxidized to Ni 3+ and Co 4+ This process is the same as that of traditional layered oxide positive electrode materials; when the charging voltage exceeds 4.45V, the lithium-rich phase of Li2MnO3 is activated, and the lattice oxygen is oxidized to generate O2, which is Li + The continued release of Li provides charge compensation. After the first cycle of charge and discharge, due to the loss of lattice oxygen, the released Li + It is impossible to completely embed back into the structure, resulting in a large loss of discharge capacity in the first cycle. At the same time, as the cycle progresses, the discharge voltage of the lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode material continues to decrease, which in turn causes a decrease in the energy density of the constructed battery. Therefore, developing an effective method to solve the voltage decay problem is a necessary means to promote the application of lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode materials in the field of power lithium batteries.
[0054] The explanation for the voltage decay of lithium-rich manganese-based cathode materials is mainly that the migration of transition metal ions during the cycle causes an irreversible phase transition. However, the root cause of this phase change is the activation of lattice oxygen. At present, the solution to voltage decay often focuses too much on transition metal ions, lacking effective measures directly targeting lattice oxygen. In addition, the doping and coating methods proposed today will have a certain degree of influence on the redox of lattice oxygen in lithium-rich manganese-based cathode materials, inevitably damaging the ultra-high capacity of lithium-rich manganese-based cathode materials. In the final analysis, the working voltage of the electrode material is closely related to its own structure. The voltage decay of lithium-rich manganese-based cathode materials indicates that its own crystal structure has degraded. At present, some research has been conducted on the recovery of the working voltage of lithium-rich manganese-based cathode materials by adjusting the crystal structure. For example, the lithium-rich manganese-based cathode material after cycling is heated at an appropriate temperature to return the lattice oxygen framework that was originally in a metastable state to a steady state, the overall structure is restored, and its discharge voltage is restored accordingly. However, this method involves high-temperature treatment, which causes serious damage to battery components such as electrolytes and diaphragms, and cannot be implemented in a battery system.
[0055] Therefore, it is necessary to study a new idea and simple solution for lattice oxygen framework recovery, so that the degraded crystal structure of lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode materials can return to a steady state after long cycles, and then restore the attenuated discharge voltage of lithium-rich manganese-based lithium batteries, so as to cope with the shortcomings of current technology and solve or alleviate the problems caused by voltage attenuation.
[0056] Therefore, the present application provides a method for recovering the working voltage of a lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode to solve the above problems. Figure 1 A flow chart of a method for restoring the working voltage of a lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode provided in an embodiment of the present application, as shown in the figure, includes the following process:
[0057] S10: Determine whether the current operating voltage of the lithium battery corresponding to the lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode is less than the preset operating voltage U of the lithium battery. If so, let the current lithium battery stand for a first time t1 after the discharge is completed.
[0058] In a specific embodiment, after a lithium battery has been used for a period of time, it will be worn out, and the internal chemical structure of the lithium battery, that is, the lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode material will change, and the operating voltage will decrease. After the lithium battery has worked for a period of time, it is determined whether the current operating voltage of the lithium battery is less than the original preset operating voltage U of the lithium battery. If it is less than, it means that the chemical structure inside the lithium battery has changed. At this time, the lithium battery is discharged and left to stand for a first time t1 after discharge to allow the lithium battery to be in a stable state.
[0059] Among them, the current working voltage needs to be detected. The preset working voltage U is related to the model, manufacturer, and size of the battery. The first static time t1 is also related to the temperature and state. This application is not limited and can be set according to actual conditions.
[0060] S11: Determine a first preset voltage U1, a second preset voltage U2, and a third preset voltage U3.
[0061] In a specific embodiment, the chemical structure in the lithium battery changes differently according to different currents and voltages. The present application determines three voltages, namely, a first preset voltage U1, a second preset voltage U2, and a third preset voltage U3, according to the corresponding relationship between the required changes and the voltages.
[0062] Among them, as a preference, the first preset voltage U1 is any value between 3.2V and 4.4V (relative to lithium potential), the second preset voltage U2 is any value between 3.4V and 4.4V (relative to lithium potential), and the third preset voltage U3 is any value between 2.0V and 3.0V (relative to lithium potential).
[0063] S12: performing several rounds of first charging operations on the current lithium battery using the first charging parameter D1 within a preset temperature range; each round of the first charging operation includes charging the current lithium battery to a first preset voltage U1 and standing for a second time t2.
[0064] In a specific embodiment, the first charging parameter D1 is used to perform several rounds of first charging operations on the current lithium battery within a preset temperature range, wherein each round of the first charging operation charges the current lithium battery to a first preset voltage U1, and leaves it to rest for a second time t2. The preset temperature is an optimal environment. After all, the efficiency of battery charging and discharging and the internal chemical structure are all related to the temperature. The preset temperature in the embodiment of the present application is only a preferred method to reduce resource waste and detection time, which can be 20°C to 55°C. The first charging parameter D1 is used to charge the current lithium battery, charge the current lithium battery to a first preset voltage U1, and leave it to rest for a second time t2, in order to cause the chemical structure of the lithium battery to undergo the first change and be in a stable state. The purpose of performing several rounds of the first charging operation on the current lithium battery is that it is impossible to guarantee a single recovery process, and the working voltage of the lithium battery will return to the state of the preset working voltage, so several rounds of overall recovery operations are required.
[0065] It should be noted that the first charging parameter D1 can be a voltage parameter or a current parameter, which is not limited in this application. At the same time, the second preset time t2 can be 2 to 5 minutes, which is not limited in this application and can be set according to user needs.
[0066] S13: Determine the second charging parameter D2 based on the judgment result of whether the first preset voltage U1 and the second preset voltage U2 are equal, and use the second charging parameter D2 to perform several rounds of second charging operations on the current lithium battery; each round of second charging operation includes charging the current lithium battery to the second preset voltage U2 and standing for a third time t3.
[0067] In a specific embodiment, the second charging parameter D2 is determined according to the result of judging whether the first preset voltage U1 and the second preset voltage U2 are equal, that is, the second charging parameter D2 includes two different charging parameters, and the corresponding charging parameter is determined according to whether they are equal at present, and the current lithium battery is subjected to several rounds of second charging operation according to the currently determined second charging parameter D2; each round of second charging operation includes charging the current lithium battery to the second preset voltage U2 and standing for a third time t3; the purpose is to make the chemical structure of the lithium battery undergo a second change and be in a stable state. Among them, the purpose of several rounds is that the working voltage of the lithium battery cannot be guaranteed to be restored to the state of the preset working voltage U in one recovery process, so several rounds of overall recovery operation are required.
[0068] It should be noted that the second charging parameter D2 can be a voltage parameter or a current parameter, which is not limited in this application. At the same time, the third preset time is not limited in this application and can be set according to the needs of the user.
[0069] S14: Discharge the current lithium battery to a third preset voltage U3 using a preset discharge parameter D3, and leave it alone for a fourth time t4, and then detect the current working voltage of the current lithium battery to determine whether the working voltage of the lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode is restored.
[0070] In a specific embodiment, the lithium battery performs normal discharge operation through the preset discharge parameter D3, and stands still for a fourth time t4. After the lithium battery is fully discharged and in a stable state, the current working voltage of the current lithium battery is detected to determine whether the working voltage of the lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode, that is, the lithium battery, has recovered to the value of the preset working voltage U.
[0071] As a preferred embodiment, the preset discharge parameter D3 is a current parameter, which is any value in the range of 0.01C to 10C. Then, the third preset voltage U3 is any value in the range of 2.0V to 3.0V (relative to lithium potential), and the standing time is 2 to 5 minutes.
[0072] The lithium battery used in this application is preferably a lithium-rich manganese-based lithium battery, which is characterized by comprising a positive electrode, a negative electrode, a separator and an electrolyte, and the positive electrode material of the lithium-rich manganese-based lithium battery contains a lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode material. The chemical formula of the lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode material is Li 1+α Ni x Coy Mn z M d O2; wherein 0<α≤0.2, 0.1<x<0.5, 0≤y<0.3, 0.5≤z<0.9, 0≤d≤0.5, wherein M is one or more of iron, aluminum, vanadium, zirconium, titanium, tin, magnesium, molybdenum and niobium. The negative electrode material comprises one or more of lithium metal negative electrode, graphite negative electrode, silicon carbon negative electrode, lithium carbon negative electrode and other negative electrode materials for lithium ion batteries. The diaphragm is selected from the Celgard series. The electrolyte is selected to be 1mol / L, and LiPF6 is in EC:DMC=3:7.
[0073] The principle of the method of the present application is to use an electrochemical method to restore the disordered structure of the lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode material after cycling, thereby restoring its operating voltage. Figure 2 The present invention provides the changes in the unit cell parameters obtained by refining the unit cell parameters of the lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode material through GSAS and other related crystal structure refinement software. When the original material is charged and discharged for one cycle in the high voltage range (>4.5V, relative to lithium potential), the unit cell parameters (a, c) both increase; when the recovery working voltage provided by the present application is used, it can be seen that the unit cell parameters (a, c) both decrease with the increase in the number of cycles, indicating that the present application can achieve structural recovery of the lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode material after cycling.
[0074] The present application provides a method for recovering the working voltage of a lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode, comprising: determining whether the current working voltage of a lithium battery corresponding to the lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode is less than a preset working voltage U of the lithium battery, and if so, standing for a first time t1 after the current lithium battery is discharged; determining a first preset voltage U1, a second preset voltage U2, and a third preset voltage U3; performing several rounds of first charging operations on the current lithium battery using a first charging parameter D1 within a preset temperature range; each round of the first charging operation includes charging the current lithium battery to the first preset voltage U1 and standing for a second time t2; determining a second charging parameter D2 based on a judgment result of whether the first preset voltage U1 and the second preset voltage U2 are equal, and performing several rounds of second charging operations on the current lithium battery using the second charging parameter D2; each round of the second charging operation includes charging the current lithium battery to the second preset voltage U2 and standing for a third time t3; discharging the current lithium battery to the third preset voltage U3 using a preset discharge parameter D3 and standing for a fourth time t4, and then detecting the current working voltage of the current lithium battery to determine whether the working voltage of the lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode is restored. The method provided in this application can restore the damaged structure of the lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode material in the lithium battery after a long cycle, thereby restoring the working voltage of the lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode, that is, increasing the working voltage of the lithium battery. The application has simple steps and is easy to operate. It can be implemented in a battery management system, which is conducive to the commercial use of lithium-rich manganese-based lithium batteries.
[0075] Based on the above embodiment, as a preferred embodiment, detecting the current working voltage of the current lithium battery to determine whether the working voltage of the lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode is restored includes:
[0076] Detect the current working voltage of the current lithium battery to determine the current voltage recovery value;
[0077] If the current voltage recovery value is less than the preset percentage value of the loss voltage, it is determined that the working voltage of the lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode has not been recovered, and the process jumps again to the step of performing several rounds of first charging operations on the current lithium battery using the first charging parameter D1 at the preset temperature;
[0078] When the current voltage recovery value is not less than a preset percentage value of the loss voltage, it is determined that the working voltage of the lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode has been restored.
[0079] In a specific embodiment, the stabilized lithium battery is tested and a voltage recovery value after the test is obtained. If the recovery value is less than a preset percentage value of the loss voltage, it is determined that the working voltage of the currently tested lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode has not been recovered, and it is necessary to restart the voltage recovery process, that is, jump again to the step of performing several rounds of first charging operations on the current lithium battery using the first charging parameter D1 at a preset temperature. If the current voltage recovery value is not less than a preset percentage value of the loss voltage, it is determined that the working voltage of the lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode has been recovered, and the lithium battery corresponding to the lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode starts to work normally.
[0080] Among them, the preset percentage can be 50% as the most preferred one, the loss voltage is the difference between the preset working voltage U and the detected working voltage, and the voltage recovery value is the difference between the lithium battery working voltage detected after a voltage recovery process and the lithium battery working voltage detected initially.
[0081] The embodiment of the present application detects the voltage of the lithium battery after the recovery process to determine whether it meets the requirements, thereby further improving the working voltage recovery process of the lithium battery.
[0082] Based on the above embodiment, as a preferred embodiment, it also includes:
[0083] If the first preset voltage U1 is equal to the second preset voltage U2, the first charging parameter D1 is configured as a constant first preset charging current value and the preset discharging parameter D3 is configured as a constant first preset discharging current value;
[0084] Furthermore, the second charging parameter D2 is used to perform several rounds of second charging operations on the current lithium battery, including:
[0085] The current lithium battery is subjected to several rounds of second charging operations using a target charging voltage value determined based on the first preset voltage U1 and the preset voltage increase value. Each round of second charging operations includes charging the current lithium battery to the second preset voltage U2, wherein the first preset voltage U1 and the target charging voltage value are both within the preset voltage range.
[0086] If the target charging voltage value determined based on the first preset voltage U1 and the preset voltage increase value is greater than the upper limit value within the preset voltage range, the upper limit value is determined as the target charging voltage value.
[0087] In a specific embodiment, Figure 3 As shown on the left, D1 is the first charging parameter, I1 is the first preset charging current value, D2 is the second charging parameter, I2 is the voltage or current parameter corresponding to the second charging parameter in the current state, D3 is the preset discharge parameter, I3 is the preset discharge current value, U1 is the first preset voltage, U2 is the second preset voltage, and U3 is the third preset voltage. If the first preset voltage U1 is equal to the second preset voltage U2, the method for restoring the voltage of the lithium battery is called the constant voltage method. At this time, the first charging parameter D1 is the first preset charging current value I1, and the preset discharge parameter D3 is the constant preset discharge current value I3. At this time, the voltage of the lithium battery is at the first preset voltage U1. At the same time, the second charging parameter D2 is used to perform several rounds of second charging operations on the current lithium battery, including using the target charging voltage value determined based on the first preset voltage U1 and the preset voltage increase value to perform several rounds of second charging operations on the current lithium battery.
