Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of lithium-ion battery positive electrode materials, and relates to a high-voltage platform O2-type lithium-manganese-rich matrix structural material, a preparation method and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Batteries, as important devices for electrochemical energy storage, have been widely used and rapidly developed since their introduction. Lithium-ion batteries, as a major new energy product, are important mobile energy storage devices. Their advantages, such as high energy density, no memory effect, minimal self-discharge, and long cycle life, have led to their widespread application in a wide range of fields, from smartwatches to electric vehicles that combine both power and capacity. However, with the development of related technologies such as mobile energy storage and power batteries, people are placing higher demands on the energy density, rate capability, endurance, cost, and safety of lithium-ion batteries. Lithium-ion batteries primarily consist of four parts: a positive electrode, a negative electrode, a separator, and an electrolyte. Among these, the positive electrode material is the key component that primarily influences the performance of lithium-ion batteries. Therefore, improving the performance of lithium-ion battery positive electrode materials has significant value and practical significance in multiple dimensions, including technological advancement, industrial development, energy transition, and social livelihoods.

[0003] Lithium-rich manganese-based cathode materials Li[Li 0.2 Ni x Co y Mn 0.8-x-y ]O 2+Δ (0.60≤x≤0.80; 0.00≤y≤0.40, referred to as LNMO, space P63mc), because lithium-rich manganese-based layered oxide has high energy density (theoretical capacity>250mAh·g -1 ), a wide voltage range (2.0-4.8V), and other characteristics, and has become a key material for the next generation of new energy vehicle batteries. Although lithium-rich manganese materials show a discharge specific capacity higher than the theoretical capacity, the traditional solid-phase prepared lithium-rich manganese is of the O3 type. Above 4.5V, oxygen activity causes changes in the oxygen framework structure and cation migration, and there is also the release of lattice oxygen, resulting in significant voltage decay and cycle capacity decline during the cycle. These problems have inhibited the commercial application of lithium-rich manganese materials. The O2-type lithium-rich manganese material uses ABAC oxygen layer stacking. Due to the unique O stacking method, a more open ion channel is formed, which can promote the reversibility of cation migration and effectively solve the voltage decay problem during the cycle. This is mainly due to the adjustment of the oxygen framework. Therefore, improving the chemical stability of the oxygen framework is the key to improving the electrochemical performance of lithium-rich manganese positive electrode materials. However, the existing O2-type lithium-rich manganese positive electrode materials have a low discharge voltage platform, poor stability at high discharge voltage platforms, and shortened lifespan, which greatly limits the widespread application of lithium-rich manganese materials in the new energy field. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The present invention is achieved through the following technical solutions: rapid microwave sintering can be used for heating, and direct heating inside the material can achieve heating uniformity, making the material structure stable, and secondly shortening the time to reduce element segregation, so as to reduce unit cell defects.

[0006] A method for preparing a high-voltage platform O2-type lithium-rich manganese-based matrix structure material comprises the following steps:

[0007] S1: mixing nickel salt, manganese salt and / or cobalt salt to prepare a mixed salt solution, mixing the mixed salt solution with a complexing agent solution and a precipitant solution, stirring and reacting to prepare a precursor material;

[0008] S2: After the precursor material and the sodium source are uniformly mixed, the mixture is placed in a microwave calcining furnace and pre-calcined at a first temperature, followed by heating and then re-calcining at a second temperature to obtain a sodium-ion P2 intermediate phase material;

[0009] S3: After uniformly mixing the sodium-ion battery P2 intermediate phase material and lithium salt, heat treatment is performed at 200-350° C. to obtain the high-voltage platform O2-type lithium-rich manganese-based matrix structure material.

[0010] Preferably, in step S1, the concentration of the mixed salt solution is 0.5-3 mol / L, the concentration of the precipitant solution is 2-6 mol / L; and the volume ratio of the precipitant solution to the mixed salt solution is 1:(0.5-12).

[0011] Preferably, in step S1, the mixed salt solution is mixed with the complexing agent solution and the precipitant solution, specifically by injecting the mixed salt solution and the complexing agent solution into water respectively using a peristaltic pump, and injecting the precipitant solution simultaneously using a peristaltic pump;

[0012] During the injection process, the flow rate of the mixed salt solution is 1.5-15 mL / min, the flow rate of the complexing agent solution is 2-8 mL / min, and the flow rate of the precipitant solution is controlled to keep the pH value of the system at 8-12.

[0013] Preferably, in step S1, during the stirring reaction, the stirring rate is 300-700 r / min and the reaction temperature is 45-75°C.

[0014] Preferably, the precipitant solution is a sodium hydroxide solution or a sodium carbonate solution, and when the precipitant solution is a sodium hydroxide solution, nitrogen is continuously introduced into the reaction system when the mixed salt solution is mixed with the complexing agent solution and the precipitant solution.

[0015] Preferably, in step S2, when the precursor material is mixed with the sodium source, the molar ratio of the transition metal atoms in the precursor to the sodium atoms in the sodium source is 1:(0.6-1).

[0016] Preferably, in step S2, when the pre-calcination treatment is performed at the first temperature, the pre-calcination temperature is 400-600°C and the time is 1-12 hours; when the re-calcination treatment is performed at the second temperature, the calcination temperature is 700-1000°C and the time is 1-20 hours.

[0017] Preferably, in step S3, when the sodium-electrolyte P2 intermediate phase material is mixed with the lithium salt, the molar ratio of sodium atoms in the sodium-electrolyte P2 intermediate phase material to lithium atoms in the lithium salt is 1:(1-12).

[0018] A high-voltage platform O2 type lithium-rich manganese-based matrix structural material is prepared by the above method; the particle size of the high-voltage platform O2 type lithium-rich manganese-based matrix structural material is 1 to 4 μm.

[0019] The above-mentioned high-voltage platform O2-type lithium-rich manganese-based layered structure material is used in the positive electrode material of lithium-ion batteries. The discharge voltage platform of the high-voltage platform O2-type lithium-rich manganese-based layered structure material is above 4.5V and within the voltage range of 2.0 to 4.8V. The high-voltage platform O2-type lithium-rich manganese-based layered structure material has an initial discharge specific capacity of 240 to 260 mAh·g at a charge and discharge rate of 0.1C. -1 The discharge capacity after 10 cycles is 235-255 mAh g -1 .

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial technical effects:

[0021] The present invention discloses a method for preparing a high-voltage platform O2-type lithium-rich manganese-based matrix structure material:

[0022] This method first prepares a uniformly distributed transition metal salt precursor through a coprecipitation reaction. During the coprecipitation reaction, the addition of a complexing agent can slow down the release rate of metal ions and prevent particle agglomeration caused by local oversaturation, thereby obtaining a precursor with uniform particle size and good dispersion. At the same time, the addition of a complexing agent can effectively inhibit the Mn 2+ Oxidized to Mn 3+ , and generate mixed phases such as MnOOH. The uniformly distributed transition metal salt precursor helps to form a material with uniform structure and stable performance;

[0023] Secondly, microwave heating is used to prepare sodium-ion battery P2 mesophase materials. The uniformity of microwave heating is better, which improves the uniformity of the mesophase material and significantly reduces the internal thermal stress of the material. The crystal structure of the P2-type sodium-ion battery mesophase is more complete, and the layered order is improved. This avoids lattice defects and impurity formation caused by local overheating, reduces impurities, and ensures the reversibility of the oxygen redox reaction under high pressure, thereby effectively improving the discharge voltage platform.

[0024] Finally, the sodium-ion battery P2 intermediate phase was converted into an O2-type lithium-rich manganese-based material through a low-temperature molten salt ion exchange method at 200-350°C. The low-temperature conditions avoided the irreversible loss of lattice oxygen during lithium insertion and inhibited structural collapse during high-voltage cycling. At the same time, the molten salt environment promoted the rapid diffusion of lithium ions, forming a uniform lithium distribution, reducing local stress concentration, and improving structural stability.

[0025] In summary, the method prepares nanoscale precursors by coprecipitation, combines microwave calcination and ion exchange processes, realizes effective control of material particle size distribution and crystal phase, effectively improves the discharge voltage platform of O2-type lithium-rich manganese-based layered materials, and simultaneously improves the discharge stability of O2-type lithium-rich manganese-based layered materials under high voltage platforms. The O2-type lithium-rich manganese-based cathode material prepared by the present invention has excellent electrochemical performance, with a discharge voltage platform above 4.5V, and within the voltage range of 2.0-4.8V, at a charge and discharge rate of 0.1C, the first discharge capacity reaches 240-260mAh·g -1 The discharge capacity after 10 cycles is 235-255 mAh g -1 , a voltage platform may appear above 4.5V.

[0026] Furthermore, in step S1, the concentration of the mixed salt solution is 0.5 to 3 mol / L, and the concentration of the precipitant solution is 2 to 6 mol / L; the volume ratio of the precipitant solution to the mixed salt solution is 1:(0.5 to 12), and the concentration of the mixed salt solution is limited to 0.5 to 3 mol / L. Too low a concentration leads to insufficient metal ions, slow reaction rate and discontinuous products, affecting structural uniformity; too high a concentration causes local ion supersaturation, resulting in particle agglomeration and widening of the particle size distribution. The concentration of the precipitant solution is set to 2 to 6 mol / L, which can maintain mild reaction conditions and generate precursor particles with moderate crystallinity, which is conducive to maintaining the subsequent calcination morphology. The volume ratio of the precipitant solution to the mixed salt solution is 1:(0.5 to 12). This ratio can balance the reaction rate and product dispersibility, avoid abnormal particle aggregation, and under the synergistic effect of the three, the prepared precursor has uniform particle size and good dispersibility, providing a stable foundation for subsequent calcination and ion exchange, and ensuring the high voltage platform and cycle stability of the O2-type lithium-rich manganese-based material.

[0027] Furthermore, in step S1, the mixed salt solution is mixed with the complexing agent solution and the precipitant solution, specifically: the mixed salt solution and the complexing agent solution are respectively injected into the water using a peristaltic pump, and the precipitant solution is injected using a peristaltic pump at the same time; during the injection process, the flow rate of the mixed salt solution is 1.5 to 15 mL / min, the flow rate of the complexing agent solution is 2 to 8 mL / min, and the flow rate of the precipitant solution is controlled so that the pH value of the system is 8 to 12. In this process, the flow rate is precisely controlled by flexible tube extrusion to ensure that the metal ions, complexing agent and precipitant are in stable contact in proportion, forming a uniform concentration field, and avoiding particle agglomeration or heterogeneous phase generation caused by local oversaturation. Among them, the mixed salt flow rate controls the metal ion concentration gradient to ensure the uniformity and crystallinity of the precursor particle size; the complexing agent flow rate regulates the metal release rate, suppresses local oversaturation by forming a stable complex, and improves the stability of the chemical composition; the pH value range of 8 to 12 ensures that the precipitation reaction is mild and controllable, and promotes uniform growth of the crystal nucleus. The synergistic effect of the three can prepare precursor particles with narrow particle size distribution and regular morphology, laying the structural foundation for the subsequent high-temperature synthesis of high-performance materials.

[0028] Furthermore, in step S1, during the stirring reaction, the stirring rate is 300 to 700 r / min, and the reaction temperature is 45 to 75° C. An appropriate stirring rate can promote uniform mixing and reaction of the raw materials while controlling particle morphology and agglomeration. An appropriate reaction temperature can regulate the reaction rate and product crystallinity while optimizing the structure and properties of the precursor, preventing lattice defects and impurity formation, optimizing the structure and properties of the precursor, and promoting orderly crystal growth.

[0029] Furthermore, the precipitant solution is a sodium hydroxide solution or a sodium carbonate solution, and when the precipitant solution is a sodium hydroxide solution, when the mixed salt solution is mixed with the complexing agent solution and the precipitant solution, nitrogen is continuously introduced into the reaction system to ensure the purity of the product.

[0030] Furthermore, in step S2, when the precursor material is mixed with a sodium source, the molar ratio of the transition metal atoms in the precursor to the sodium atoms in the sodium source is 1: (0.6 to 1). By controlling this ratio, a stable layered structure can be constructed. The appropriate sodium content can ensure that the sodium ions are arranged in an orderly manner between the layers, avoiding the collapse of the layered structure due to too low a sodium content, or the sodium content being too high causing the sodium ions to occupy the transition metal sites, thereby destroying the structural stability. At the same time, this ratio can regulate the distribution of sodium ions, regulate the sodium ion diffusion channels, and improve the ion conductivity. When the sodium content is 0.6 to 1, there is enough space for the sodium ions to diffuse between the layers, and the transition metal layer can also provide a certain support effect to prevent the interlayer spacing from being too large and causing the structure to be loose.

[0031] Furthermore, in step S2, when pre-calcination treatment is carried out at a first temperature, the pre-calcination temperature is 400-600°C, and the time is 1-12 hours; when re-calcination treatment is carried out at a second temperature, the calcination temperature is 700-1000°C, and the time is 1-20 hours. Step S2 adopts a two-stage calcination process to optimize the material structure and purity: in the pre-calcination stage (400-600°C, 1-12 hours), impurities such as moisture, organic complexing agent, carbonate and hydroxide in the precursor are removed by thermal decomposition, and volatilized in the form of H2O and CO2 gases to avoid structural damage caused by impurity decomposition during high-temperature calcination, while promoting the initial formation of an ordered crystal framework between transition metal ions and oxygen, thereby improving the material purity; in the high-temperature calcination stage (700-1000°C, 1-20 hours), a complete layered structure is formed through full ion diffusion, lattice defects are reduced, and the crystallinity and morphology regularity are improved, ultimately achieving a dual improvement in crystal structure optimization and electrochemical performance.

[0032] Furthermore, in step S3, when the sodium-ion P2 intermediate phase material is mixed with the lithium salt, the molar ratio of sodium atoms in the sodium-ion P2 intermediate phase material to lithium atoms in the lithium salt is 1:(1 to 12). This ratio realizes efficient sodium-lithium ion exchange, can construct a stable layered structure, and also realizes the orderliness control of the layered structure. Moreover, this ratio can realize the regulation of material composition and phase composition, thereby realizing the optimization of electrochemical performance. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0067] Example 1

[0068] In this embodiment, according to the chemical formula Li[Li 0.2 Ni 0.2 Mn 0.6 ]O 2.1 Ingredients

[0069] An O2-type lithium-rich manganese cathode material Li[Li 0.2 Ni 0.2 Mn 0.6 ]O 2.1 The preparation method comprises the following steps:

[0070] Step 1. Solution preparation:

[0071] According to the molar ratio of nickel to manganese elements of 0.2:0.6, NiSO4·6H2O and MnSO4·H2O were weighed respectively, and deionized water was added and stirred to fully dissolve to prepare a 2 mol / L transition metal salt solution, i.e., a mixed salt solution; sodium hydroxide solid was weighed and deionized water was added to fully dissolve to prepare a precipitant solution with a concentration of 4 mol / L; an appropriate amount of concentrated ammonia water was taken and diluted to 4 mol / L with deionized water to prepare an ammonia buffer solution as a complexing agent.

[0072] Step 2. Co-precipitation:

[0073] Before the reaction began, 1.5 L of deionized water was added to a 10 L reactor as a base liquid, followed by nitrogen gas to expel oxygen from the reactor. A peristaltic pump was used to inject a transition metal salt solution and an ammonia buffer solution into the reactor from the feed port at feed rates of 1.5 mL / min and 2 mL / min, respectively. The sodium hydroxide solution feed rate was simultaneously controlled to maintain a pH of 12. The volume ratio of the precipitant solution to the mixed salt solution was 1:1. The reaction temperature was controlled at 60°C, and the stirrer speed was 400 rpm. After 20 hours of reaction, the resulting product was filtered, washed, and dried to obtain a hydroxide precursor material.

[0074] Step 3. Calcination:
