[0048] In order to solve the problem of insufficient gram capacity of the negative electrode material, the embodiment of the present application provides a negative electrode material. The negative electrode material is a porous carbon particle, and the XRD (X-ray Diffraction) spectrum of the negative electrode material includes a first diffraction peak and a second diffraction peak located at 10°-20°. The first diffraction peak corresponding to the disordered carbon structure is a wide peak, and the second diffraction peak corresponding to the ordered carbon structure is a sharp peak. The peak intensity ratio of the second diffraction peak to the first diffraction peak is 0.8-20. The negative electrode material has appropriate relative content of ordered carbon structure and disordered carbon structure, thereby improving its true density and effectively improving its gram capacity. Therefore, when the negative electrode material is applied to a secondary battery, the energy density of the secondary battery can be improved.
[0049] In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the technical solutions of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. The embodiments described herein are illustrative in nature and are used to provide a basic understanding of the present application. The embodiments of the present application should not be interpreted as a limitation of the present application.
[0050] The terms "first" and "second" in the specification and claims of the present application and the above-described drawings are used to distinguish different objects, rather than to describe a specific order.
[0051] For the sake of brevity, only some numerical ranges are specifically disclosed herein. However, any lower limit can be combined with any upper limit to form a range not explicitly recited; and any lower limit can be combined with other lower limits to form a range not explicitly recited, as can any upper limit with any other upper limit to form a range not explicitly recited. Further, each individual disclosed point or single numerical value can itself serve as a lower limit or upper limit to combine with any other point or single numerical value or with other lower limits or upper limits to form a range not explicitly recited.
[0052] In the description herein, "above", "below" include the number itself unless otherwise stated.
[0053] Unless otherwise defined, the terms used in the present application have the commonly understood meanings as understood by those skilled in the art. Unless otherwise stated, the values of the parameters mentioned in the present application can be measured by various measurement methods commonly used in the art (for example, tests can be performed according to the methods given in the embodiments of the present application).
[0054] The list of items connected by “at least one of,” “at least one,” “at least one of the items,” or other similar phrases is meant not to be a single item from the list, but rather a disjunctive list of items. For example, the phrase “at least one of A and B” means only A; only B; or A and B. In another example, the phrase “at least one of A, B, and C” means only A; only B; only C; A and B (excluding C); A and C (excluding B); B and C (excluding A); or A, B, and C. Item A can include a single component or multiple components. Item B can include a single component or multiple components. Item C can include a single component or multiple components.
[0055] The embodiment of the present application first provides a negative electrode material, which is a porous carbon particle. In the XRD pattern of the negative electrode material, a first diffraction peak and a second diffraction peak are included, both of which are located between 10° and 30°.
[0056] The first diffraction peak is a wide peak, and the second diffraction peak is a sharp peak, so the half-peak width of the first diffraction peak is greater than the half-peak width of the second diffraction peak. Exemplarily, the ratio f1 / f2 of the half-peak width f1 of the first diffraction peak to the half-peak width f2 of the second diffraction peak is greater than 4.
[0057] In the formula, A is the ratio of the peak intensity of the second diffraction peak to the peak intensity of the first diffraction peak, and satisfies 0.8≤A≤20.
[0058] Specifically, since the second diffraction peak corresponds to an ordered carbon structure in the negative electrode material, and the first diffraction peak corresponds to a disordered carbon structure in the negative electrode material, when 0.8≤A≤20, the relative content of the ordered carbon structure and the disordered carbon structure in the negative electrode material is appropriate, which can improve the true density and the gram capacity of the negative electrode material, and effectively improve the cycle performance and safety performance of the secondary battery in which the negative electrode material is used.
[0059] On this basis, the ordered carbon in the negative electrode material is distributed in the disordered carbon, which can further improve the stability of the crystal phase structure of the material, and promote the high-rate (for example, 5C) capacity retention rate and the low-temperature capacity retention rate of the secondary battery using the negative electrode material.
[0060] The first diffraction peak is a characteristic peak corresponding to the (002) crystal face corresponding to the disordered carbon structure. The second diffraction peak is a characteristic peak of the (002) crystal face corresponding to the ordered carbon structure.
[0061] Exemplarily, the value of A can be 0.8, 0.9, 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.5, 1.7, 1.9, 2.3, 2.8, 3.2, 3.8, 4.2, 4.6, 5.0, 5.5, 5.6, 5.8, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 10.0, 12.0, 14.0, 16.0, 18.0, 20.0, or a range between any two of them. Preferably, A≤6.
[0062] In one embodiment, the XRD pattern of the above negative electrode material can satisfy: the half-peak width of the first diffraction peak is 5°-9°.
[0063] Exemplarily, the half-peak width of the first diffraction peak can be 5°, 6°, 7°, 8°, 9°, or a range between any two of them.
[0064] In one embodiment, the XRD pattern of the above negative electrode material can satisfy: the diffraction angle of the first diffraction peak is 20°-24°.
[0065] Exemplarily, the diffraction angle of the first diffraction peak can be 20.0°, 20.5°, 21.0°, 21.5°, 22.0°, 22.5°, 23.0°, 23.5°, 24.0°, or a range between any two of them.
[0066] In one embodiment, the XRD pattern of the above negative electrode material can satisfy: the half-peak width of the second diffraction peak is 0.5°-1.5°.
[0067] Exemplarily, the half-peak width of the second diffraction peak can be 0.5°, 0.7°, 0.9°, 1.1°, 1.3°, 1.5°, or a range between any two of them.
[0068] In one embodiment, the XRD pattern of the above negative electrode material can satisfy: the diffraction angle of the second diffraction peak is 25.9°-26.9°. For example, the diffraction angle of the second diffraction peak is 26.0°, 26.1°, 26.2°, 26.3°, 26.4°, 26.5°, 26.6°, 26.7°, 26.8°, 26.9°, or a range between any two of them.
[0069] In one embodiment, the ratio of the peak intensity I D of the D peak to the peak intensity I G of the G peak in the Raman spectrum of the above negative electrode material satisfies, 0.30≤I D / I G ≤1.40. D / I G ≤1.40.
[0070] The Ramn spectrum is obtained by Raman Spectroscopy.
[0071] wherein the D peak is a characteristic peak in the Raman spectrum at 1300 cm -1 to 1400 cm -1 ; and the G peak is a characteristic peak in the Raman spectrum at 1530 cm -1 to 1630 cm -1 .
[0072] In one embodiment, 0.75≤I D / I G ≤1.15.
[0073] Exemplarily, the value of I D / I G may be 0.75, 0.80, 0.83, 0.85, 0.88, 0.90, 0.92, 0.95, 0.97, 1.00, 1.05, 1.08, 1.10, 1.15, or a range between any two of them.
[0074] To further improve the strength of the negative electrode material, so as to avoid the rapid attenuation of the lithium storage activity and specific capacity of the negative electrode material due to mechanical failure when the negative electrode material is applied to a secondary battery, in one embodiment, the negative electrode material described above further comprises a small amount of element M in addition to the element C. The element M is at least one of Ti, Si, Zr, Al, Nb, Cr, Sr, Ba and Ca.
[0075] The mass content of the element M is m, m≤6.5%, based on the mass of the negative electrode material. Exemplarily, m can be 0.01%, 0.02%, 0.03%, 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, 1.8%, 2.1%, 2.3%, 2.8%, 3.2%, 3.7%, 4.1%, 4.5%, 4.7%, 5.2%, 6.5%, or a range between any two of them.
[0076] In this case, the element M is distributed in the form of small particle carbide inside the carbon skeleton.
[0077] Further, the apparent density of the negative electrode material is 0.5-1.7 g / cm 3 , so that when it is applied to a secondary battery, a large number of active ion (e.g., Li + ) storage sites can be provided.
[0078] To further reduce the amount of SEI film generated, to avoid loss of active lithium, and to reduce the contact area between the electrolyte and the negative electrode material, in one embodiment, the negative electrode material described above can further include a carbon layer, which can be disposed on the surface of the carbon framework.
[0079] Since the carbon layer is located on the surface of the negative electrode material, the carbon layer can be regarded as forming a coating structure on the surface of the carbon framework. Therefore, the carbon layer on the surface of the carbon framework can convert the pores of the porous structure into internal pores, thereby reducing the amount of SEI film generated and reducing the contact area between the electrolyte and the negative electrode material.
[0080] It should be understood that the thickness of the carbon layer in the coating structure described above on the surface of the carbon framework is not equal everywhere. Moreover, the coating area of the carbon layer on the surface of the carbon framework is at least more than 50%, but in some areas on the surface of the carbon framework, there can be no carbon layer.
[0081] In one embodiment, the thickness of the carbon layer is at least 5 nm. For example, the thickness of the carbon layer is 5-200 nm.
[0082] In one embodiment, the negative electrode material described above satisfies: the pore volume of the negative electrode material is less than or equal to 0.05 cm 3 / g.
[0083] In one embodiment, the specific surface area of the negative electrode material described above is 0.5-50 m 2 / g;
[0084] In one embodiment, the pore volume of the negative electrode material subjected to the crushing treatment is 0.1-0.9 cm 3 / g;
[0085] In one embodiment, the negative electrode material described above satisfies: the specific surface area of the negative electrode material subjected to the crushing treatment is 150-1500 m 2 / g;
[0086] In one embodiment, the negative electrode material described above satisfies: the pore size of the negative electrode material subjected to the crushing treatment is 0.3-2.0 nm.
[0087] In one embodiment, the crushing treatment of the negative electrode material can be obtained by crushing a small amount of negative electrode material by a grinder.
[0088] In one embodiment, the negative electrode material described above satisfies: the pore volume of the negative electrode material is less than or equal to 0.05 cm 3 / g, and the pore volume of the negative electrode material subjected to the crushing treatment is 0.1-0.9 cm 3 / g.
[0089] In one embodiment, the negative electrode material described above satisfies: the specific surface area of the negative electrode material is 0.5-50 m 2 / g, and the specific surface area of the crushed negative electrode material is 150-1500 m 2 / g.
[0090] To further improve the bulk density of the negative electrode material, in one embodiment, the volume median particle size Dv50 of the negative electrode material is 3-12 μm.
[0091] To promote the random distribution of ordered carbon structures in disordered carbon structures, in one embodiment, the negative electrode material is obtained by sintering the source of element M in a halogen atmosphere at a first temperature condition, and then cooling to a second temperature condition for further sintering.
[0092] Based on the same inventive concept, the present application provides a preparation method of the above negative electrode material, which comprises the following steps:
[0093] In an inert atmosphere with a halogen atmosphere content greater than or equal to 5wt%, the halogen atmosphere and the precursor are subjected to an etching reaction at a first temperature condition for 0.5-2 hours to generate a first intermediate product.
[0094] After cooling to a second temperature condition, the halogen atmosphere and the first intermediate product are subjected to an etching reaction for 0.5-10 hours to obtain a second intermediate product.
[0095] Without changing the temperature, the atmosphere condition is changed to an inert atmosphere or an inert atmosphere containing hydrogen to further remove impurities, thereby obtaining the above negative electrode material. The negative electrode material has a porous structure.
[0096] The precursor comprises a source of element M. The source may, for example, be a carbide of element M.

[0102] Further, the negative electrode material can be subjected to a vapor deposition reaction in an inert atmosphere containing an organic gas at a temperature of 400-1000°C to form a carbon layer on the surface of the negative electrode material.

[0118] The thickness of the negative electrode current collector can be, for example, 4 to 12 μm, and the thickness of the single-sided negative electrode active material layer can be 30 to 200 μm.

Specifically, after the measured powder material is dried and degassed for pretreatment, the adsorption amount of the material to the test gas nitrogen under different pressures is tested by using the ASAP2460-physical adsorption analyzer, and the adsorption and desorption isotherms are drawn. According to the shape of the hysteresis loop, the shape of the pores is determined, the DFT model is used to fit the pore size distribution curve of the micropores, and then the pore size and pore volume information of the negative electrode material are obtained.

[0164] (7) Elemental analysis test:
[0165] The mass ratio a of the element with relatively large atomic mass to carbon in the negative electrode material is tested by using an inductively coupled plasma emission spectrometer (ICP-OES). 0.5 g of the negative electrode active material to be tested is weighed, mixed with 10 mL of concentrated HNO3, and subjected to microwave digestion. The digested solution is introduced into an inductively coupled plasma (ICP) light source. The ICP-OES device detects the content of different elements according to the characteristic radiation energy emitted by the outer electrons of the gaseous atoms in the sample material when they return from the excited state to the ground state after being excited.

The wavelength of the laser of the Raman spectrometer can be in the range of 532 nm to 785 nm. The value of ID / IG in the present application is the average value of the ratio of I D and I G of all the particles measured in the range. The D peak: generally near 1350±50 cm -1 , caused by the radial breathing mode of the symmetric stretching vibration of sp 2 carbon atoms in the aromatic ring (structural defect); the G peak: appears near 1580±50 cm cm -1 , caused by the stretching vibration between sp 2 carbon atoms, which corresponds to the vibration of the E2g optical phonon at the center of the Brillouin zone (carbon atom in-plane vibration).

The negative electrode slurry was uniformly coated on one surface of a negative current collector copper foil with a thickness of 10 μm, and the single-sided coating thickness was 60 microns. The negative electrode sheet was dried at 85°C to obtain a negative electrode sheet. The negative electrode sheet was cut into a circular sheet with a diameter of 14 mm and used as a working electrode.

Then the coin-type battery was charged at 0.05C to 2.5V, and the first charge specific capacity of the coin-type battery was recorded. The mass of the negative active material in the negative electrode sheet was calculated according to the coating weight and area of the negative electrode slurry in the above sheet preparation process. The first efficiency and the gram capacity were calculated by the following expressions:
[0173] First efficiency = first charge specific capacity / first discharge specific capacity x 100%; negative active material gram capacity Q = first charge specific capacity / mass of negative active material, unit: mAh / g.

[0176] The first charge and discharge were carried out in an environment of 25°C, the constant current charging was carried out at a charging current of 1C until the charging cutoff voltage was reached, then the constant voltage charging was carried out, and then the constant current discharging was carried out at a discharging current of 1C until the discharging cutoff voltage was reached, and the discharge capacity of the first cycle was recorded. The discharge capacity of the 800th cycle was recorded after 800 cycles of charging and discharging. The charging cutoff voltage of the lithium ion battery using the negative active material in the present application was 4.53V, and the discharging cutoff voltage was 2.0V.
[0177] The cycle performance was calculated by the following expression:
[0178] Cycle capacity retention rate (%) = (discharge capacity of the 1000th cycle / discharge capacity of the first cycle) x 100%.
[0179] Cycling expansion rate (%) = (thickness of lithium ion battery at 1000th cycle / thickness of lithium ion battery at first cycle) x 100%.

[0181] Take 5 lithium ion batteries from each group of tested lithium ion batteries, and perform the first charge and discharge in an environment of 25°C. Perform constant current charging under a charge current of 0.2C until the charge cut-off voltage of 4.53V, and then perform constant voltage charging under the charge cut-off voltage to 0.02C, and then perform constant current discharging under a discharge current of 0.2C to the discharge cut-off voltage of 2.0V to obtain the 0.2C average discharge capacity of the lithium ion battery. Then repeat the above charging process, and then perform constant current discharging under a discharge current of 5C to the discharge cut-off voltage to obtain the 5C average discharge capacity of the lithium ion battery.
[0182] The rate discharge capacity retention rate is calculated by the following expression:
[0183] 5C discharge capacity retention rate = (5C average discharge capacity / 0.2C average discharge capacity) x 100%
[0184] (12) Test the low-temperature capacity retention rate
[0185] Take 5 lithium ion batteries from each group of tested lithium ion batteries, and perform the first charge and discharge in an environment of 25°C. Perform constant current charging under a charge current of 0.2C until the charge cut-off voltage of 4.53V, and then perform constant voltage charging under the charge cut-off voltage to 0.02C, and then perform constant current discharging under a discharge current of 0.2C to the discharge cut-off voltage of 2.0V to obtain the 0.2C average discharge capacity of the lithium ion battery at 25°C. Perform constant current charging under a charge current of 0.2C until the charge cut-off voltage, and then perform constant voltage charging under the charge cut-off voltage to 0.02C, and then lower the environment temperature to -20°C and stand for 3h, and then perform constant current discharging under a discharge current of 0.2C to the discharge cut-off voltage in an environment of -20°C to obtain the 0.2C average discharge capacity of the lithium ion battery at -20°C.
[0186] The low-temperature capacity retention rate is calculated according to the following expression:
[0187] Low-temperature capacity retention rate = (-20°C average discharge capacity / 25°C average discharge capacity) x 100%.
