[0044] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this application include:

[0045] The lithium iron manganese phosphate positive electrode material provided in this application uses two different types of iron manganese phosphate precursors as raw materials. The amorphous precursor is a block particle formed by the accumulation of blocky primary particles. The amorphous precursor has a low dehydration and sintering temperature, a small specific surface area BET, basically no pores, is difficult to grind, and has a low (Fe+Mn) / P ratio. The particle size of the finally formed lithium iron manganese phosphate positive electrode material is larger, which improves the processing performance.

[0046] Highly crystalline precursors are blocky particles formed by the accumulation of flaky primary particles. They undergo long aging times and require high dehydration and sintering temperatures. They exhibit high crystallinity, high specific surface area, and distinct crystallization peaks, which facilitate the diffusion of doping elements and lithium ions in the resulting lithium iron manganese phosphate cathode material, thereby increasing capacity. Highly crystalline precursors have a large BET specific surface area, large cross-sectional pores, and are easy to grind. They also have a high (Fe+Mn) / P ratio, resulting in a smaller particle size for the resulting lithium iron manganese phosphate cathode material.

[0047] Highly crystalline precursors may lead to a higher specific surface area of ​​the material, thereby affecting the processing performance; amorphous precursors can improve the material's compaction density and specific surface area and other properties. By combining the two precursors, it is possible to ensure the capacity of the lithium manganese iron phosphate positive electrode material and improve the cycle performance, and to exert a beneficial synergistic effect, so that the lithium manganese iron phosphate positive electrode material can obtain both high electrochemical performance and good processing performance.

[0048] Based on the use of the above two different types of manganese iron phosphate precursors as raw materials, the manganese iron phosphate lithium positive electrode material of the present application can improve the capacity of the material and the cycle performance by further including specific lower valence elements in the doping elements and specific higher valence elements in the coating elements, thereby ultimately playing a synergistic role in significantly improving the material performance.

[0049] Specifically, the reactivity of the doping elements with lower valence states is higher, and they are easily doped into the crystal structure of lithium iron manganese phosphate. They can improve the electrochemical properties of the material and increase the capacity of the material while changing the crystal structure. The reactivity of the coating elements with higher valence states is lower, and they are difficult to be doped into the interior of the lithium iron manganese phosphate particles. They are easily distributed on the surface of the lithium iron manganese phosphate particles, which can improve the stability of the surface structure of the material, thereby improving the cycle performance.

[0059] As used herein:

[0060] "Prepared from" is synonymous with "comprising." As used herein, the terms "comprising," "including," "having," "containing," or any other variations thereof, are intended to cover a non-exclusive inclusion. For example, a composition, process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises the listed elements is not necessarily limited to only those elements but may include other elements not expressly listed or inherent to such composition, process, method, article, or apparatus.

[0061] The conjunction "consisting of" excludes any unspecified element, step, or component. If used in a claim, this phrase renders the claim closed, excluding materials other than those described, except for conventional impurities associated therewith. When the phrase "consisting of" appears in a clause of the body of a claim, rather than immediately following the subject matter, it limits only the elements described in that clause; other elements are not excluded from the claim as a whole.

[0062] When an amount, concentration, or other value or parameter is expressed as a range, a preferred range, or a range defined by a series of upper preferred values ​​and lower preferred values, this should be understood as specifically disclosing all ranges formed by any pairing of any range upper limit or preferred value with any range lower limit or preferred value, regardless of whether the range is disclosed alone. For example, when a range of "1 to 5" is disclosed, the described range should be interpreted as including the range "1 to 4", "1 to 3", "1 to 2", "1 to 2 and 4 to 5", "1 to 3 and 5", etc. When a numerical range is described herein, unless otherwise stated, the range is intended to include its end values ​​and all integers and fractions within the range.

[0063] In these examples, parts and percentages are by mass unless otherwise indicated.

[0064] "Parts by mass" refers to the basic unit of measurement used to express the mass ratio of multiple components. One part can represent any unit of mass, such as 1g or 2.689g. For example, if we say that the parts by mass of component A are a parts and the parts by mass of component B are b parts, this means the ratio of the mass of component A to the mass of component B is a:b. Alternatively, we could say that the mass of component A is aK and the mass of component B is bK (K is an arbitrary number representing a multiplication factor). It's important to note that, unlike parts by mass, the sum of the parts by mass of all components is not limited to 131 parts.

[0065] "And / or" is used to indicate that one or both of the stated situations may occur, for example, A and / or B includes (A and B) and (A or B).

[0066] The present application provides a lithium manganese iron phosphate positive electrode material, comprising a base material and a composite coating layer; wherein,

[0067] The matrix material comprises a positive electrode material A made from a precursor A and a positive electrode material B made from a precursor B;

[0071] Among them, the amorphous precursor is a blocky particle formed by the accumulation of blocky primary particles, and its specific surface area BET is relatively small, which is 3-7m 2 / g, basically no pores, difficult to grind, and low (Fe+Mn) / P, relatively large particles, D50 is 6~9μm, the dehydration sintering temperature of the amorphous precursor is low, with low crystallinity characteristics, and no obvious crystallization peak in XRD.

The particles are relatively small, with a D50 of 3~8μm. Most of the small particles in the finished product come from high-crystalline precursors; the high-crystalline precursors have a long aging time and a high dehydration and sintering temperature, forming high crystallinity and high specific surface area characteristics, with obvious crystallization peaks, which are more conducive to the diffusion of doping elements and lithium ions, and facilitate capacity utilization.

[0073] The (Fe+Mn) / P ratio of the amorphous precursor may be, for example, 0.960, 0.965, 0.970, 0.975, or any value between 0.960 and 0.975. The (Fe+Mn) / P ratio of the highly crystalline precursor may be, for example, 0.970, 0.975, 0.980, 0.985, or any value between 0.970 and 0.985.

[0077] M includes a lower valence element, and M' includes a higher valence element; by including a specific lower valence element in the doping element and a specific higher valence element in the cladding element, a synergistic effect is achieved.

[0078] The valence states of the lower valence elements are divalent, trivalent and tetravalent, and the valence states of the higher valence elements are tetravalent, pentavalent and hexavalent.

[0079] Ti 4+ It can be used as both a doping element and a coating element, mainly due to its dosage. 4+ When the doping molar amount is less than or equal to 0.02, the XPS results show that there is no characteristic peak of Ti element on the surface of the material, indicating that Ti 4+ When Ti is fully doped into the internal grains of the material, 4+When the doping molar amount is higher than or equal to 0.03, the XPS results show that a Ti peak appears on the surface of the material. 4+ It not only enters the material as a part of the doping element, but also covers the surface of the material as a part of the coating element.

[0162]

[0163] Power-off test process

[0164] The positive electrode materials prepared in the Examples and Comparative Examples were mixed with PVDF and NMP in a ratio of 90:5:5 to prepare a positive electrode slurry. This slurry was then coated onto aluminum foil, dried, and then punched and sheared to produce positive electrode sheets. Button cells were assembled in a glove box by combining the positive electrode sheets with the lithium sheet, separator, and electrolyte. The assembled button cells were placed in the mold of a hydraulic sealing machine, locked, and pressurized. The seal was then released, and the sealed button cells were removed. The separator was Celgard polypropylene film, and the electrolyte was purchased from Xinya Shanshan New Materials Technology Co., Ltd.

[0165] The test was performed using a Lanhe (model: CT3002A) battery test cabinet with a test voltage range of 2.0V to 4.5V. Specifically, the battery was charged to 4.5V at a constant current of 0.1C, charged to 50μA at a constant voltage, and discharged to 2.0V at 0.1C. This was considered the first cycle, and the discharge capacity after the first cycle was recorded as the 0.1C discharge capacity (mAh / g).

[0166] Again, charge at a constant current of 1C to 4.5V, charge at a constant voltage of 50μA, and discharge at 1C to 2.0V. Record the discharge capacity after the second cycle as the 1C discharge capacity (mAh / g).

[0167] Again, continue to charge at a constant current of 1C to 4.5V, charge at a constant voltage to 50μA, and discharge at 1C to 2.0V. Repeat the above operation and record the discharge capacity after the 51st cycle as the 1C discharge capacity (mAh / g) after 50 cycles.

[0168] The charge and discharge curves of the lithium manganese iron phosphate positive electrode material of Example 1 are as follows: Figure 7 As shown, the charge and discharge curve of the lithium manganese iron phosphate positive electrode material of Comparative Example 1 is as follows Figure 8 The electrochemical properties of the lithium manganese iron phosphate positive electrode materials of the embodiments and comparative examples are shown in Table 2.

[0169] Table 2 Electrochemical properties of lithium manganese iron phosphate cathode materials of various examples and comparative examples

[0170]

[0171] From the data tables obtained from Examples 1-7 and Comparative Examples 1-4, it can be seen that the capacity and first efficiency of the lithium manganese iron phosphate positive electrode material obtained by the present application solution are better than those obtained by the comparative example solution, among which the lithium manganese iron phosphate positive electrode material obtained in Example 1 has the best electrochemical performance. Compared with Examples 1-7, Comparative Examples 1-4 all showed poor performance. Among them, Comparative Example 1 only used highly crystalline precursor B, and the specific surface area of ​​the obtained positive electrode material was higher. Although the capacity was not much different from that of the embodiment, the cycle performance was poor; Comparative Example 2 only used amorphous precursor A, and the specific surface area of ​​the obtained positive electrode material was smaller and the capacity was lower; in Comparative Example 3, magnesium oxide as a dopant was changed to tungsten oxide as a coating agent. Due to the high-valent element W 6+ It cannot enter the positive electrode material grains and cannot dope the material. Therefore, the lithium manganese iron phosphate positive electrode material obtained in Comparative Example 3 only has the coating element and is not doped with the specific lower valence element of the present invention, which affects the electrochemical properties such as the discharge capacity of the positive electrode material. In Comparative Example 4, niobate as a coating agent is changed to aluminum oxide as a dopant. Since Al 3+ As a low-valent element, it is easy to enter the interior of the material for doping. Therefore, the coating layer does not contain the specific higher-valent elements of the present invention, resulting in poor stability of the material surface structure and failure to play a synergistic role in improving material properties.
