AI Technical Summary
In existing technology, in all-solid-state lithium-ion secondary batteries, the interfacial resistance generated when lithium ions move at the interface between the positive electrode active material and the solid electrolyte increases, resulting in reduced battery capacity and battery performance. In addition, existing covering methods have problems such as low productivity, unevenness and high cost.
An aqueous solution containing lithium and silicon in a specific molar ratio is used to form a lithium orthosilicate covering layer on the surface of the positive electrode active material through drying and heat treatment to optimize lithium ion conductivity and coverage uniformity. Mechanical stirring and filtration are used to treat the particles and control the absorbance and impurity content of the aqueous solution.
Effectively reduce interface resistance, improve the performance of lithium-ion secondary batteries, ensure the uniformity of the coating and battery capacity, and reduce production costs.
