Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of electrochemical energy conversion and energy storage materials, and particularly relates to a method for uniformly doping and modifying a regenerated and repaired failed layered metal oxide electrode material. Background Art
[0002] Lithium-ion batteries have become the key to contemporary variable energy storage solutions. However, the limited lifespan of lithium-ion batteries poses an increasingly severe challenge to the disposal of waste batteries, which requires progress in recycling technologies to mitigate environmental impacts and recover valuable materials. Traditional pyrometallurgical and hydrometallurgical recycling methods aim to extract elements and highly rely on high temperatures and toxic chemicals, which can cause environmental damage. In contrast, direct recycling is expected to be a more environmentally friendly, cost-effective approach. By directly recycling failed cathode materials through a "repair"-centered method, extensive and destructive processing stages are avoided, and the original structure and inherent properties of the cathode materials are retained.
[0003] A cathode material uniformly coated with high-entropy oxide and its preparation method (application number: 2024112485755) disclose coating a failed layered metal oxide electrode material with a high-entropy oxide having lattice phase matching to restore the performance of the electrode material, and an obvious coating layer can be seen in the disclosed photos. Different from surface coating, in order to ensure the mechanical integrity of the cathode material and obtain optimal electrochemical performance, uniform bulk doping modification can be carried out. Therefore, seeking a recycling and modification method that can uniformly repair failed layered metal oxide cathode materials is an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0012] Further, the lithium-containing compound includes one or more of lithium nitrate, lithium hydroxide, lithium chloride, lithium citrate, lithium carbonate or lithium acetate.
[0013] Further, the atomic ratio of the metal element of the failed layered metal oxide electrode material to the metal compound is 100:0.1 to 10; the molar ratio of the layered metal oxide electrode material to the lithium-containing compound is 100:5 to 85.
[0014] Further, the layered metal oxide electrode material is a failed layered metal oxide electrode material of 0 to 80%.
[0015] Further, it includes the following steps:
[0016] (1) Add the metal compound and the lithium-containing compound to a solvent and mix evenly.
[0017] (2) Add the auxiliary agent to the system and mix evenly to obtain a mixed solution.
[0018] (3) While stirring, add the layered metal oxide electrode material to the mixed solution and mix evenly to obtain a precursor solution.
[0019] (4) Stir and heat the precursor solution until it is completely evaporated, and obtain the precursor after sufficient drying.
[0020] (5) Calcinate the obtained precursor in a combustion-supporting atmosphere to obtain a uniformly doped and modified layered metal oxide electrode material.
[0021] Further, the temperature of the calcination in step (5) is 800 - 900 °C, the heating rate is 3 - 10 °C / min, and the heat preservation time is 4 - 14 h.
[0022] By adopting the above scheme, the method of the present invention has the following advantages:
[0023] 1. The layered metal oxide cathode material selected in the present invention will have a loss of components and form vacancies after failure, which is conducive to the doping of elements.
[0024] 2. Some elements tend to be doped in the lithium layer, and some elements tend to be doped in the transition metal layer. Due to the different degrees of preference of different metals for doping sites, when two doping metals coexist, different metals will spontaneously occupy the doping sites in the lithium layer and the transition metal layer according to the priority of preference. The present invention conducts dual-element doping on the elements doped in the lithium layer and the transition metal layer. After cycling 200 times at a high voltage, it can still have a specific capacity close to 90%. The performance obtained by the dual-element doping is more excellent than that of single-element doping, achieving the effect of 1 + 1 > 2.
[0025] 3. After the metal elements of the present invention are doped into the bulk phase of the layered metal oxide cathode material, they can act as "pillars" to prevent the layered structure from collapsing due to expansion and contraction, enhancing the structural stability of the cathode material.
[0026] 4. The morphology of the layered metal oxide cathode material before and after doping by the method of the present invention does not change significantly, indicating that doping by the method of the present invention is beneficial to restoring the morphology of the cathode material.
[0027] 5. The method of the present invention forms stronger M - O bonds (M is the doping atom) between the rare earth atoms doped on the layered metal oxide cathode material and the material itself, which can effectively inhibit the loss of lattice oxygen.
[0028] 6. The doping elements in the method of the present invention weaken the cation mixing, and the layered structure is transformed into a rock salt phase and a spinel phase, achieving the purpose of inhibiting the phase transition.
[0029] 7. The present invention can not only restore the structure and performance of the failed layered metal oxide material, but also enhance the stability of the layered metal oxide at high voltage through doping, further improving its energy density and meeting the ever-changing performance requirements of lithium-ion batteries.

[0089] Electrochemical performance test:
[0090] Using lithium as the negative electrode, the button batteries are made from Examples 1-5 and the comparative example respectively, and a 200-cycle long-term cycling test is carried out under a voltage window of 2.7-4.5 V. The results are as Figures 7 to 12 shown. At high voltage, after 200 cycles, the specific capacities of the examples with metal doping are all above 80%, while the specific capacity of the comparative example repaired only with lithium is only 76.7%. Compare Figure 10 with Figure 7 and 9、11 Comparison shows that by using the method of the present invention, a very small amount of metal doping can greatly improve the cycling stability of the repaired electrode at high voltages, and a huge improvement in performance can be achieved with a minimal increase in cost.
[0091] On this basis, Example 5 simultaneously uses chromium in the transition metal layer and cerium in the lithium layer as doping sites for co-doping. Comparing Figure 7 、 Figure 8 and Figure 11 , as well as Figure 9 、 Figure 10 and Figure 11 It can be seen that the relationship between the doping amount of a single doping element and the cycling efficiency is not entirely a positive influence. Continuing to increase the doping amount may cause the cycling performance to decline. However, in Example 5, co-doping with multiple elements can fully occupy the doping sites. As an electrode, it can maintain a specific capacity of nearly 87% after 200 cycles at high voltages, achieving a huge improvement in cycling performance. There are no obvious unincorporated impurities on the surface of the obtained sample. Moreover, it shows that designing multi-element doping for doping sites can further improve the structural stability and strength of the electrode material, and can greatly improve the structural integrity of the electrode material during charge and discharge. The method of the present invention has strong practicability and has made great progress.
[0092] For those skilled in the art, various corresponding changes and deformations can be made according to the technical solutions and concepts described above, and all these changes and deformations should fall within the protection scope of the claims of the present invention.
