Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of battery processing, and in particular to a positive electrode composite material for a solid-state battery, a preparation method thereof, and applications thereof. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, solid-state batteries, as the next generation of high-performance battery technology, have attracted widespread attention due to their high safety and energy density. The positive electrode composite materials of solid-state batteries, as one of their key components, have developed rapidly.

[0003] The positive electrode materials used in traditional liquid batteries are mainly composite materials such as lithium cobalt oxide and nickel cobalt manganese, while solid-state batteries pay more attention to the stability and conductivity of the materials. Therefore, researchers have achieved certain results by optimizing the microstructure and surface modification of the positive electrode composite materials and improving their compatibility with solid-state electrolytes.

[0004] At present, some solid-state battery positive electrode materials with excellent cycle performance and high energy density have emerged on the market. However, how to further improve their stability and conductivity is still a research hotspot.

[0005] In the existing technology, the conductivity and cycle stability of the positive electrode composite materials of solid-state batteries still need to be improved, especially under high load and rapid charge and discharge conditions, the material is prone to structural changes, resulting in a decline in battery performance. Secondly, the interface between the positive electrode material and the solid electrolyte is unstable, and the problem of prone to side reactions has not been effectively solved, and the interface impedance is high, which limits the overall efficiency and cycle life of the battery. At the same time, the bonding strength between the conductive agent and the positive electrode material is insufficient, and it is easy to fall off due to accumulated mechanical stress during long-term circulation. The positive electrode composite material will also produce lattice stress accumulation during the cycle, resulting in the formation of microcracks between the active material and the solid electrolyte, affecting the integrity of the electronic conduction network. As the conductive channel is destroyed, the electronic conductivity of the battery gradually decreases, resulting in battery capacity decline. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a positive electrode composite material for solid-state batteries and its preparation method and application, so as to solve the technical problem in the prior art that the conductivity and cycle stability of the positive electrode composite material of solid-state batteries need to be further improved.

[0007] The object of the present invention can be achieved by the following technical solution: A positive electrode composite material for a solid-state battery, comprising the following raw materials in parts by weight: 5-10 parts of a modified binder, 3-6 parts of deionized water, 80-100 parts of a modified polycrystalline powder, and 5-10 parts of a modified conductive agent;

[0008] The modified polycrystalline powder is prepared by the following steps:

[0009] A1. Place dihydrogen diamine and ethanol in a reaction kettle, stir for 1-5 minutes, add NCM811, and stir for 5-15 minutes to obtain a crude modified polycrystalline powder;

[0010] A2. Ball-mill the crude modified polycrystalline powder for 10-12 hours and then calcine to obtain the modified polycrystalline powder.

[0011] The preparation reaction principle of modified polycrystalline powder is:

[0012] During the reaction, the surface of NCM811 contains abundant oxygen atoms and lithium ions. Dihydrogen diamine molecules are adsorbed on the surface of NCM811 through van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonds. Ball milling breaks up the NCM811 particles, increases their specific surface area, exposes more active surfaces, and promotes the uniform mixing of dihydrogen diamine molecules and NCM811. During calcination, ethanol evaporates, and dihydrogen diamine is attached to the surface of NCM811 in a molecularly dispersed state, forming a uniform precursor layer. Under argon protection, dihydrogen diamine molecules undergo deamination polymerization to form triazine ring structural units. The triazine rings are stacked into two-dimensional layered g-C3N4 through van der Waals forces. The sp in its structure 2 The hybridized CN atoms form a highly delocalized π-conjugated system, and the terminal amino group of g-C3N4 forms an NOC bond with the oxygen atoms on the surface of NCM811, achieving a firm bond between the coating layer and the substrate, generating a graphite phase silicon carbide coating layer and obtaining a modified polycrystalline powder.

[0013] Furthermore, in step A1, the amount ratio of dihydrogen diamine, ethanol and NCM811 is 0.05-0.10g:50-70mL:3-5g; in step A2, the ball milling medium is composed of zirconium dioxide with a particle size of 1-5mm, the ball-to-powder ratio is 10:1, the rotation speed is set to 100r / min, and the calcination operation steps include: placing the ball-milled product in an oven protected by a nitrogen atmosphere, heating to 75-85°C, drying for 9-11h, transferring to a tubular furnace at a temperature of 450-550°C and calcining for 0.5-1.5h, cooling at room temperature, grinding, and passing through a 200-mesh sieve to obtain a modified polycrystalline powder.

[0014] Furthermore, the modified binder is prepared by the following steps:

[0015] B1. Place 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid, ethanol, and deionized water in a reaction kettle, stir for 1-5 minutes, slowly add lithium hydroxide monohydrate, raise the temperature to 20-30° C., keep the temperature for reaction for 3-4 hours, and post-treat to obtain a modified lithium salt monomer;

[0016] The preparation reaction principle of modified lithium salt monomer is:

[0017] During the reaction, the sulfonic acid group in the 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid molecule releases a proton, combines with the hydroxide ion in the lithium hydroxide monohydrate to generate water, and the released proton is replaced by the lithium ion to generate a lithium sulfonate group to obtain a modified lithium salt monomer.

[0018] B2. Place the modified lithium salt monomer, lithium acrylate, n-butyl acrylate, ammonium persulfate, N,N-dimethylformamide and acrylonitrile in a reactor, heat to 70-80° C., keep the temperature for 7-8 hours, and post-treat to obtain a modified binder.

[0019] The preparation reaction formula of the modified binder is:

[0020]

[0021] The preparation reaction principle of the modified binder is:

[0022] During the reaction, under the initiation of ammonium persulfate, the modified lithium salt monomer, lithium acrylate, n-butyl acrylate and acrylonitrile undergo free radical polymerization to obtain a modified binder.

[0023] Furthermore, in step B1, the amount ratio of the 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid, ethanol, deionized water and lithium hydroxide monohydrate is 3-4g:5-10mL:35-45mL:0.5-1g, and the post-treatment step includes: after the reaction is completed, heating to 95-100°C, and distilling under reduced pressure until no liquid is produced to obtain a modified lithium salt monomer; in step B2, the amount ratio of the modified lithium salt monomer, lithium acrylate, n-butyl acrylate, ammonium persulfate, N,N-dimethylformamide and acrylonitrile is 1-2g:2-4g:4-6g:0.5-1.5g:200-250mL:2-4g, and the post-treatment step includes: after the reaction is completed, heating to 150-160°C, and distilling under reduced pressure until no liquid is produced to obtain a modified binder.

[0024] Furthermore, the preparation method of the modified conductive agent is: placing carbon nanotubes in a nitrogen-protected tubular furnace, heating to 600-700° C., introducing sulfur dioxide gas, keeping the temperature for reaction for 0.5-1.5 hours, and post-treating to obtain the modified conductive agent.

[0025] The preparation reaction principle of the modified conductive agent is:

[0026] During the reaction, sulfur dioxide gas undergoes thermal decomposition in the high-temperature environment of the tubular furnace, and the generated sulfur atoms covalently bond with the edge carbon atoms on the surface of the carbon nanotubes. The sulfur atoms replace some carbon atoms to form a CSC structure and embed into the carbon skeleton to obtain a modified conductive agent.

[0027] Furthermore, the flow rate of the sulfur dioxide gas is 300 sccm, and the post-processing step includes: after the reaction is completed, cooling to room temperature, grinding, and passing through a 200-mesh sieve to obtain a modified conductive agent.

[0028] The present invention also provides a method for preparing a positive electrode composite material for a solid-state battery, comprising the following steps:

[0029] S1. Evenly mixing the modified polycrystalline powder, the modified binder, the modified conductive agent and deionized water to obtain a mixed slurry;

[0030] S2. Coat the mixed slurry on an aluminum foil with a scraper, flatten it, and dry it to obtain a positive electrode composite material.

[0031] Furthermore, in step S2, the coating thickness is 50-200 μm, and the drying operation step includes: transferring the scraped product into a drying oven protected by a nitrogen atmosphere, heating it to 90-100° C., and drying it for 0.5-1.5 h to obtain a positive electrode composite material.

[0032] The present invention also proposes an application of a positive electrode composite material for a solid-state battery. The positive electrode composite material prepared by the above-mentioned preparation method of the positive electrode composite material for a solid-state battery is applied to a new energy battery.

[0033] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0034] 1. The present invention is to coat a layer of graphite phase silicon carbide on the surface of NCM811 to obtain a modified polycrystalline powder, then neutralize 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid with lithium hydroxide monohydrate to obtain a modified lithium salt monomer, prepare a modified binder through further free radical copolymerization, use sulfur dioxide gas as a sulfur source, and prepare a modified conductive agent through high-temperature calcination, and mix the modified polycrystalline powder, modified binder, modified conductive agent and deionized water to form a mixed slurry, which is coated on an aluminum foil with a scraper, flattened, and dried to obtain a positive electrode composite material; the present invention uses high temperature to calcine the carbon nanotubes under a nitrogen atmosphere. The carbon nanotubes are modified by sulfur doping and calcination under a nitrogen atmosphere to protect the graphitized structure in the carbon nanotubes, avoid the risk of structural collapse of the electrode during the cycle, change the electron cloud distribution of carbon in the carbon nanotubes, reduce resistivity, and improve the overall conductivity of the positive electrode composite material, further improving the charge and discharge rate and rate performance of the solid-state battery. The carbon nanotubes themselves have excellent mechanical strength and structural stability. Under high-rate charge and discharge conditions, the structural strength of the sulfur-doped carbon nanotubes helps prevent the positive electrode material from falling off or breaking, and alleviates the expansion or contraction of the battery during the charge and discharge process, thereby improving the cyclic stability of the solid-state battery.

[0035] 2. The present invention also mixes NCM811 and dihydrogen diamine evenly, forms a graphite phase silicon carbide coating on the surface of NCM811 after calcination, and obtains a modified polycrystalline powder. The modified polycrystalline powder is used as the main active material of the positive electrode composite material of the solid-state battery. The inert protective layer formed on the surface of NCM811 can effectively enhance the surface stability of the positive electrode composite material, inhibit the side reaction between the surface interface of NCM811 and the solid electrolyte, reduce the loss of lattice oxygen and the dissolution of transition metals, thereby delaying capacity decay and improving the cycle stability of the solid-state battery. At the same time, the high thermal conductivity and mechanical strength of graphite phase silicon carbide can alleviate the volume expansion during the charge and discharge process. Stress, reduce the probability of intercrystalline microcracks, improve the long cycle stability of the positive electrode material, the graphite phase silicon carbide coating provides a stable lithium ion diffusion channel, and at the same time, the graphite phase silicon carbide is coated on the surface of the NCM811 particles to form a continuous and dense conductive coating layer, build a stable electron conduction network, reduce the migration resistance of electrons in the positive electrode material, thereby improving the overall conductivity, the defect sites introduced by sulfur doping and the semiconductor properties of graphite phase silicon carbide synergistically optimize the electron transmission path, improve the charge transfer efficiency under high current density, and at the same time, the high thermal conductivity of graphite phase silicon carbide helps to modify the heat dissipation of the adhesive and improve the cycle stability of the solid-state battery.

[0036] 3. The present invention prepares 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonate neutralized with lithium hydroxide monohydrate, and further reacts the 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonate with lithium acrylate, n-butyl acrylate and acrylonitrile through free radical reaction to obtain a modified adhesive. The lithium ions in the modified lithium salt monomer can form strong ionic bonds with the oxygen anions on the surface of the modified polycrystalline powder, thereby improving the interfacial bonding strength. The cross-linked network structure formed by the free radical reaction can effectively fix the lithium salt, provide a continuous ion transport channel, improve the ion mobility of the positive electrode composite material, and further improve the high-rate discharge performance of the solid-state battery. The introduction of acrylonitrile monomer enhances the rigidity of the adhesive, and synergizes with the flexible chain segment of lithium acrylate to give the positive electrode composite material excellent anti-cracking performance, effectively alleviating the stress concentration caused by volume change of the positive electrode during charging and discharging, thereby preventing particle breakage, structural collapse and the like, maintaining the integrity of the modified polycrystalline powder structure, avoiding capacity decay, and significantly extending the cycle life of the battery.

The defect sites introduced by sulfur doping and the semiconductor properties of graphite phase silicon carbide synergistically optimize the electron transmission path, improving the charge transfer efficiency under high current density. At the same time, the high thermal conductivity of graphite phase silicon carbide helps to modify the heat dissipation of the adhesive and improve the cycle stability of the solid-state battery.

[0106] By comparing and analyzing the data of Example 2 and Comparative Example 2, it can be found that the conductivity, first charge efficiency, capacity retention rate after 100 cycles and rate performance of Comparative Example 2 are significantly reduced, indicating that the present invention prepares 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonate neutralized by lithium hydroxide monohydrate, and further reacts with lithium acrylate, n-butyl acrylate and acrylonitrile to obtain a modified adhesive through a free radical reaction. The lithium ions in the modified lithium salt monomer can form strong ionic bonds with the oxygen anions on the surface of the modified polycrystalline powder, thereby improving the interfacial bonding strength. The cross-linked network structure formed by the free radical reaction can effectively fix the lithium salt, provide a continuous ion transport channel, improve the ion mobility of the positive electrode composite material, and further improve the high-rate discharge performance of the solid-state battery. The introduction of acrylonitrile monomer enhances the rigidity of the adhesive, and synergizes with the flexible chain segment of lithium acrylate to give the positive electrode composite material excellent anti-cracking performance, effectively alleviating the stress concentration caused by volume change of the positive electrode during charging and discharging, thereby preventing particle breakage, structural collapse and the like, maintaining the integrity of the modified polycrystalline powder structure, avoiding capacity decay, and significantly extending the cycle life of the battery;

[0107] By comparing and analyzing the data of Example 2 and Comparative Example 3, it can be found that the conductivity, first charge efficiency, capacity retention rate after 100 cycles and rate performance of Comparative Example 3 are significantly reduced. The present invention uses high temperature to sulfur-dope the carbon nanotubes in a nitrogen atmosphere. The calcination in the nitrogen atmosphere protects the graphitized structure in the carbon nanotubes, avoids the risk of structural collapse of the electrode during the cycle, changes the electron cloud distribution of the carbon in the carbon nanotubes, reduces the resistivity, and improves the overall conductivity of the positive electrode composite material, further improving the charge and discharge rate and rate performance of the solid-state battery. The carbon nanotubes themselves have excellent mechanical strength and structural stability. Under high-rate charge and discharge conditions, the structural strength of the sulfur-doped carbon nanotubes helps to prevent the positive electrode material from falling off or breaking, and alleviates the expansion or contraction of the battery during the charge and discharge process, thereby improving the cyclic stability of the solid-state battery.
