Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of lithium-ion battery cathode materials. More specifically, it relates to a low-temperature fast-charging lithium-supplementing cathode material and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] As a core energy storage device in the new energy field, the performance of the cathode material of a lithium-ion battery directly determines the energy density, cycle life, and environmental adaptability of the battery. Currently, commercially available cathode materials such as lithium cobalt oxide (LCO), ternary materials (NCM / NCA), and lithium iron phosphate (LFP) face significant technical bottlenecks in applications. First, at low temperatures (e.g., below -20 °C), the lithium-ion diffusion rate of traditional cathode materials drops sharply, resulting in a capacity attenuation rate exceeding 50% and a charging polarization voltage rising above 200 mV, severely limiting the applicability of electric vehicles in cold regions. Second, during high-rate charging (>3C), the mismatch between the lithium-ion transport rate and the electron conduction rate inside the electrode leads to safety hazards such as lithium metal precipitation and local overheating. In addition, a large amount of active lithium is consumed during the first charge and discharge process of the cathode material due to the formation of the solid electrolyte interface film (SEI film), resulting in irreversible capacity loss. The first Coulombic efficiency of lithium iron phosphate is usually lower than 90%, further restricting the improvement of the battery energy density.
[0003] To compensate for lithium source loss, existing technologies mostly adopt pre-lithiation strategies, but their limitations are significant. For example, the process of pre-lithiation with a lithium metal foil is complex and there is a risk of lithium dendrite growth; lithium-rich compounds (such as Li5FeO4, Li2NiO2) need to be activated under high voltage (>4.5 V), which exacerbates electrolyte decomposition and interfacial side reactions; although the silicon-based lithium-supplementing material has a high capacity, its volume expansion rate exceeds 300%, easily causing the collapse of the electrode structure. At the same time, lithium manganese iron phosphate (LiMn x Fe 1-x PO4, LMFP), which combines high safety and moderate energy density, has become a research hotspot. Its voltage platform (3.8 - 4.1 V) is significantly higher than that of LFP (3.4 V), and the theoretical energy density is increased by 15 - 20%. However, the manganese ion dissolution phenomenon of LMFP leads to a decrease in cycle stability (capacity retention rate after 1000 cycles < 85%), and its intrinsic electronic conductivity is low (<10 -9 S / cm), relying on carbon coating or nanosizing modification. The problem of insufficient ion diffusion coefficient (<10 -12 cm 2 / s) at low temperatures remains unresolved.
[0004] On the other hand, squaric acid lithium (Li2C4O4), as an organic lithium salt, has a high ionic conductivity (>10 -4(S / cm, -20 °C) and fast lithium-ion release characteristics have been explored for fast-charging systems, but their individual use has defects such as poor electrochemical stability (decomposition voltage < 4.0 V) and significant volume expansion. In the prior art, the structural stability of LMFP and the ion transport advantages of lithium squarate have not been effectively integrated, and there is a lack of material design for the synergistic enhancement of low-temperature fast charging and lithium supplementation.
[0005] In the existing publicly disclosed technologies, although there have been studies attempting to improve the performance of LMFP through composite modification. For example, Patent CN118173765A proposes carbon-coated LMFP to improve conductivity, but it does not involve the integration of lithium supplementation function; Patent CN119965251A discloses a method for preparing porous LMFP using metal-organic framework (MOF) precursors, but still does not solve the synergistic problem of low-temperature fast charging and lithium loss compensation. Therefore, developing an innovative cathode material based on the composite of LMFP and lithium squarate and achieving performance breakthroughs through structural design and process optimization has become the key technical path to promote the development of electric vehicles and high-power energy storage devices in alpine regions. Summary of the Invention
[0006] To solve the above technical problems, the present application provides a low-temperature fast-charging lithium-supplementing cathode material and its preparation method. Through the synergistic effect of lithium iron manganese phosphate and lithium fluorosquarate, the present application solves the problems of poor low-temperature performance and fast-charging bottleneck of lithium iron manganese phosphate, and achieves the effect of simultaneously improving low-temperature fast charging and cycle life.
[0007] In the first aspect, the present application provides a low-temperature fast-charging lithium-supplementing cathode material, adopting the following technical solution: A low-temperature fast-charging lithium-supplementing cathode material, comprising: Composite particles formed by high-energy ball milling after mixing lithium iron manganese phosphate and lithium fluorosquarate, and inner and outer carbon coating layers coated on the surface of the composite particles; Among them, The lithium iron manganese phosphate serves as the main active material, and its chemical formula is LiMn x Fe 1-x PO4, 0.5 ≤ x ≤ 0.8; The lithium fluorosquarate serves as a lithium supplementing agent, and its chemical formula is Li2C4O3F; The thickness of the inner carbon coating layer is 5 - 10 nm, and the thickness of the outer carbon coating layer is 10 - 20 nm.
[0008] In this application, lithium iron manganese phosphate is combined with lithium fluorosquarate. By utilizing the synergistic effect of the high-voltage platform (3.8 - 4.1 V) of lithium iron manganese phosphate and the fast lithium-ion release characteristics of lithium fluorosquarate, three-dimensional channels with high ion mobility can be constructed at low temperatures by filling the interstices of lithium iron manganese phosphate particles with lithium fluorosquarate. In addition, during charge and discharge, lithium fluorosquarate will partially decompose to generate LiF, which can cooperate with the components in the electrolyte to form a dense SEI film, further inhibiting manganese dissolution and structural collapse.
[0009] In this application, fluorine atoms are used to partially replace oxygen atoms in squaric acid lithium to obtain fluorine-doped squaric acid lithium. By using the high electronegativity of F - to stabilize the crystal structure and inhibit side reactions during charge and discharge.
[0010] Adopting a structure with two layers of carbon coating can not only improve the electronic conductivity but also prevent the manganese dissolution phenomenon caused by the expansion of composite particles.
[0011] Further preferably, after being mixed, the lithium iron manganese phosphate and lithium fluorosquarate are subjected to high-energy ball milling treatment to achieve nanoscale mixing.
[0012] Further preferably, the lithium iron manganese phosphate is impregnated with an aqueous phosphoric acid solution before being mixed with lithium fluorosquarate.
[0013] Further preferably, the lithium iron manganese phosphate is synthesized by a sol-gel method to obtain a lithium iron manganese phosphate precursor, and then obtained through high-temperature sintering.
[0014] Further preferably, the preparation steps of the lithium iron manganese phosphate are as follows: Dissolve lithium carbonate, manganese acetate, iron oxalate, and ammonium dihydrogen phosphate in deionized water, add citric acid and ethylene glycol, and heat and stir to form a sol; Vacuum dry the sol at 120 °C to obtain a porous gel precursor; The porous gel precursor is pre-fired and sintered successively under argon protection to obtain nanoscale lithium iron manganese phosphate.
[0015] Preferably, the pre-firing temperature is 300 - 320 °C, and the pre-firing time is 3.5 - 4 h to remove organic substances and initially form a Li-Mn-P-O framework.
[0016] Preferably, the specific sintering steps are as follows: Raise the temperature to 700 - 710 °C at a rate of 5 - 8 °C / min, keep it warm for 10 h, and then cool it naturally.
[0017] Preferably, the particle size of the lithium iron manganese phosphate is 80 - 150 nm.
[0018] Further preferably, the lithium fluorosquarate is prepared by reacting squaric acid and lithium fluoride as raw materials.

[0020] Preferably, the molar ratio of squaric acid to lithium fluoride is 1:(2 - 2.2).
[0021] Preferably, the particle size of the lithium fluorosquarate is less than 80 nm.
[0022] In a second aspect, the present application provides a preparation method of a low-temperature fast-charging lithium-supplemented cathode material, adopting the following technical solution: A preparation method of a low-temperature fast-charging lithium-supplemented cathode material, the specific preparation steps are as follows: Mix lithium iron phosphate manganese and lithium fluorosquarate and perform high-energy ball milling treatment to obtain composite particles, and successively coat inner and outer carbon coating layers on the surface of the composite particles. The inner carbon coating layer is coated by chemical vapor deposition method with a thickness of 5 - 10 nm, and the outer carbon coating layer is coated by carbothermal reduction method with a thickness of 10 - 20 nm.
[0023] By adopting the high-energy ball milling method, lithium fluorosquarate can be embedded in the gaps between lithium iron phosphate manganese particles in the form of nanoparticles to form a continuous ion conduction path. Lithium fluorosquarate releases lithium ions during the first charge, compensates for the consumption of SEI film formation, and improves the first Coulomb efficiency to more than 95%.
[0024] During charge and discharge, lithium iron phosphate manganese will have a volume change of about 10% due to the Jahn-Teller distortion of manganese ions and the insertion / extraction of lithium ions. Long-term cycling may lead to particle swelling and the appearance of microcracks, exacerbating the dissolution of manganese; in addition, as an organic lithium salt, lithium fluorosquarate may be accompanied by volume expansion when releasing lithium ions during the first charge. If the binding force between the carbon coating layer and the matrix is insufficient, it is easy to cause interface peeling. The present application adopts inner and outer carbon coating layers. The carbon coating layer coated by chemical vapor deposition method is an amorphous carbon flexible buffer layer, providing elastic buffer ability to adapt to the volume expansion of the composite particles. The carbon coating layer coated by carbothermal reduction method is a rigid conductive layer, improving electron conductivity and ensuring the structural stability of the composite particles.
[0025] Further preferably, the specific steps of the chemical vapor deposition method are as follows: Take the mixed gas of methane and argon as the carbon source, deposit at 500 °C for 2 h, and after cooling, it is obtained.
[0026] Further preferably, the specific steps of the carbothermal reduction method are as follows: adding the composite particles into an aqueous glucose solution, stirring and then performing ultrasonic treatment to obtain a mixed slurry, drying to obtain a glucose-coated precursor, placing the precursor in an argon atmosphere, heating to 300-320°C at a rate of 5-10°C / min, holding for 1-1.5 h, then continuing to heat to 800-810°C at a rate of 5-10°C / min, holding for 2.5-3 h, and grinding the product after natural cooling to obtain the product.
[0027] In summary, the present application has the following beneficial effects: (1) By using the high-energy ball milling method, lithium fluorosquarate can be embedded in the gaps between lithium iron phosphate manganese particles in the form of nanoparticles to form a continuous ion conduction path. Lithium fluorosquarate releases lithium ions during the first charge, compensates for the consumption of SEI film formation, and improves the first Coulomb efficiency to more than 95%; (2) The present application uses two layers of carbon, inner and outer, to coat the composite particles of lithium iron phosphate manganese and lithium fluorosquarate. The inner flexible carbon absorbs the volume change stress through elastic deformation and is in direct contact with the active material to reduce the interfacial impedance. The outer rigid carbon maintains the overall structural stability, avoids crack propagation, and improves the conductivity; (3) The positive electrode material prepared in the present application has a discharge capacity retention rate of >85% at -40°C at 0.5C, which is 40% higher than that of pure lithium iron phosphate manganese; it supports fast charging at 10C, and the capacity retention rate is >90% after 2000 cycles.
