Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of lithium-ion batteries, and particularly relates to a lithium oxalate / CNT-coated modified lithium-rich manganese cathode material and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous development of electronic devices such as spacecrafts, electric vehicles, medical devices, and communication devices, lithium-ion batteries have become an indispensable part thereof; however, their energy density still needs to be further improved to meet the applications in new energy vehicles.

[0003] The energy density of a single lithium-ion battery is determined by the working voltage and the battery capacity of the battery itself. Therefore, the battery energy density can be improved by increasing the battery working voltage or capacity. The layered lithium-rich manganese-based cathode material xLi2MnO3·(1-x)LiMO2 (0 < x < 1) is composed of LiMO2 (M = Mn, Co, Ni) and Li2MnO3, and the discharge specific capacity at a voltage of 2 - 4.8V can reach 250 - 300 mAh / g, and it is considered an ideal cathode material for high-energy-density lithium-ion batteries. The lithium-rich manganese-based material has a unique anion redox mechanism, which although contributes to a high specific capacity, also causes instability of the crystal structure of the lithium-rich material, oxygen loss, and transition metal migration, etc., thereby causing problems such as voltage and capacity decay during the cycling process, a low first-cycle Coulomb efficiency, and poor cycling performance.

[0004] At present, domestic and foreign researchers usually adopt modification methods such as surface modification, bulk doping, and morphology structure to alleviate problems such as irreversible oxygen loss and phase change during the cycling process of lithium-rich manganese-based materials. Among them, surface modification mainly uses substances such as metal oxides, fluorides, graphene, polymers, etc., and reports on using organic cathode lithium supplement agents are relatively rare. Lithium oxalate (Li2C2O4) is considered one of the most promising lithium compensation materials, which can decompose to generate Li + at about 4.7V, providing a capacity of 440 mAh / g, which can compensate for the lithium loss during the first charge and discharge process of the lithium-rich manganese-based cathode material, thereby improving its first efficiency and energy density; and compared with other lithium supplement materials, organic lithium salts have a lower decomposition potential, a simple preparation method, are stable to air and moisture, and the decomposition products are gases, which can be discharged during the battery preparation process. However, the Li2C2O4 material has poor electronic conductivity and a relatively high decomposition potential (4.7V), which limits its further application. Summary of the Invention

[0007] On one hand, the present invention provides a method for preparing a lithium oxalate / CNT-coated modified lithium-rich manganese cathode material, comprising the following steps:

[0008] S1 introduces a metal salt solution, a precipitant, and a complexing agent into a reaction vessel in parallel to carry out a co-precipitation reaction.

[0015] Preferably, in step S1, the pH of the coprecipitation reaction is 7-11, the reaction temperature is 50-60℃, and the aging time is 12-24h.

[0016] Preferably, in step S1, the particle size D50 of the lithium-rich manganese-based cathode material precursor is 4-6 μm.

[0017] Preferably, in step S2, the lithium source is at least one of lithium carbonate and lithium hydroxide, and the molar ratio of the lithium source to the lithium-rich manganese-based cathode material precursor is (1.2-1.3):1.

[0020] Preferably, in step S5, the drying temperature is 130-160℃ and the drying time is 3-5 hours.

[0021] On the other hand, the present invention provides a lithium oxalate / CNT-coated modified lithium-rich manganese cathode material prepared by the above-described method for preparing lithium oxalate / CNT-coated modified lithium-rich manganese cathode material.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0023] The lithium oxalate / CNT-coated modified lithium-rich manganese cathode material prepared by this invention exhibits a lithium oxalate coating layer that provides lithium replenishment, improving the initial coulombic efficiency and energy density of the LMR cathode material. Simultaneously, the CNT coating layer not only effectively reduces the decomposition voltage of the lithium replenishing agent and improves the lithium replenishment efficiency, but also acts as an inert protective layer to safeguard the LMR cathode material. This enhances the material's conductivity while reducing material distortion during lithium-ion insertion / extraction, suppressing oxygen release and structural phase transitions, and effectively improving the battery's cycle stability.

Figure 1-6 As shown, the prepared lithium oxalate / CNT coated modified lithium-rich manganese cathode material has a uniform particle size distribution and a uniform coating layer on its surface.

[0060] Comparative Example 1

[0061] The difference from Example 1 is that steps S3-S5 are omitted, and Li is ultimately obtained. 1.2 Ni 0.13 Co 0.13 Mn 0.54 O2 material (i.e., LMR).

[0062] Comparative Example 2

[0063] The difference from Example 1 is that in step S3, CNTs are not added, and Li2C2O4 coated with Li is finally obtained. 1.2 Ni 0.13 Co 0.13 Mn 0.54 O2 material, denoted as L@LMR-1.

[0068] Comparative Example 5

[0069] The difference from Example 1 is that in step S4, a lithium hydroxide solution is used to control the final pH to 8.

[0070] Electrochemical performance tests were performed on the cathode materials prepared in Examples 1-6 and Comparative Examples 1-5:

[0071] The positive electrode material, acetylene black, and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) binder were mixed evenly at a mass ratio of 94:3:3, and then dispersed in an N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) solution to obtain a paste-like mixture. The mixture was coated onto aluminum foil and vacuum dried overnight at 90°C. Li / Li 1.2 Ni 0.13 Co 0.13 Mn 0.54 The assembly of the O2 button cell (model 2016) was carried out in a glove box filled with high-purity argon gas.

[0072] Using lithium metal sheets as the negative electrode and a polypropylene membrane as the separator, 1 mol of LiPF6 was dissolved in ethyl carbonate / dimethyl carbonate (EC / DMC, volume ratio 1:1) as the electrolyte to synthesize a Li-containing electrolyte. 1.2 Ni 0.13 Co 0.13 Mn 0.54 O2 material electrodes were used as the positive electrode material of the battery.

[0073] The electrochemical performance test results of the cathode materials prepared in Examples 1-6 and Comparative Examples 1-5 are shown in Table 1:

[0074] Table 1. Electrochemical performance test results of the cathode materials prepared in Examples 1-6 and Comparative Examples 1-5.

[0075]

[0076] As can be seen from Examples 1-4 and Comparative Example 1, with the increase of lithium oxalate / CNT coating amount, the discharge capacity, initial coulombic efficiency, and cycle capacity retention all increase. This is because the coating provides an additional lithium source during charge and discharge, not only offsetting irreversible lithium loss and reducing problems such as irreversible lithium metal deposition, but also acting as an inert protective layer to protect the LMR cathode material, improving the material conductivity while reducing material distortion during lithium-ion insertion / extraction, inhibiting oxygen release and structural phase transitions, ultimately improving the material's charge / discharge efficiency, energy density, and cycle life. As can be seen from Examples 1 and Comparative Example 2, Comparative Example 2, without CNT coating, showed a decrease in both discharge capacity and initial coulombic efficiency of the cathode material, but the cycle capacity retention decreased most significantly, indicating that the addition of CNTs helps improve the lithium replenishment efficiency of the lithium oxalate supplementer and enhances the material's stability. As can be seen from Examples 1 and Comparative Example 3, the addition of lithium oxalate supplementer helps improve discharge capacity and initial coulombic efficiency. Furthermore, the charging dQ / dV curves of the lithium oxalate / CNT-coated modified lithium-rich manganese cathode material prepared in Example 1 and the lithium-rich manganese cathode material prepared in Comparative Example 2 are as follows: Figure 7 As shown, by Figure 7 It can be seen that the clear characteristic peak appearing near 4.21V in Example 1 indicates that a significant electrochemical reaction occurred at that point, while no obvious characteristic peak appeared in Comparative Example 2 between 4 and 4.4V, indicating that no chemical reaction occurred within that voltage range; this shows that the addition of CNTs can reduce the decomposition voltage of the lithium supplement to about 4.2V.
