[0027] In order to make the person skilled in the art better understand the technical solutions of the present application, the technical solutions of the present application will be described clearly and completely in combination with the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments only constitute some embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0028] In the description of the present application, "the same chemical composition" should be understood broadly, that is, the main components of the two have consistent chemical composition, or the chemical composition of the two is basically consistent, which can have the error within the range that can be understood by those skilled in the art and allowed in the art or contain impurities within the allowable range.
[0029] In the description of the present application, "A and / or B" can include any one of the following cases: A alone, B alone, A and B, wherein A and B are only used for example, and can be any technical feature connected by "and / or" in the present application.
[0030] Unless otherwise specified, all technical terms used in the present application have the same meaning as that generally understood by those skilled in the art to which the present application belongs. All patents and publications involved in the present application are incorporated by reference in the present application. The term "comprising" or "including" is an open expression, that is, it includes the content indicated in the present application, but does not exclude other aspects.
[0031] At present, graphite has become an ideal negative electrode material due to its low redox potential and high capacity. However, its low lithium insertion potential also poses a safety hazard for fast charging and low-temperature charging. Polarization will lead to serious lithium deposition at the negative electrode. Therefore, increasing the lithium insertion rate of the negative electrode, that is, improving the reaction kinetics, is the main improvement direction of the negative electrode material. The main ways to improve the negative electrode kinetics currently include reducing the particle size, surface coating and surface element doping. Among them, surface coating is the most commonly used improvement strategy, mainly including soft carbon, hard carbon or a mixture of the two. Amorphous carbon such as soft carbon and hard carbon has a large interlayer spacing, which can achieve rapid insertion of lithium ions, thereby improving the kinetics. However, the kinetics that can be improved are limited, and both soft carbon and hard carbon have a variety of lithium storage mechanisms. Different precursors and sintering methods will cause changes in the kinetics of lithium storage. After coating, due to the large number of surface active sites, the negative electrode side reactions increase, which often deteriorates the cycle and high-temperature performance.
[0032] To address the aforementioned technical issues, the present invention enhances the lithium insertion kinetics of the negative electrode by coating the surface of the negative electrode material with a high-kinetic organic electrode material. Organic matter often serves as a carbon source during negative electrode production and, after sintering, can be converted into soft or hard carbon, which improves the reaction kinetics of the negative electrode material. The organic electrode material employed in the present invention can adjust its capacity and voltage by manipulating its molecular structure. Furthermore, because organic electrode materials often bind to lithium ions through coordination bonds, they often exhibit rapid reaction kinetics.
[0033] The present invention provides a coated negative electrode material, comprising:
[0034] A negative electrode material and a coating layer covering the negative electrode material;
[0035] The main material of the negative electrode material includes a carbon-based negative electrode material;
[0036] The coating layer comprises a conjugated carboxylate organic electrode material.
[0037] In the present invention, the coated negative electrode material comprises a main negative electrode material and a coating layer coating the main negative electrode material. Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic structural diagram of the coated negative electrode material provided by the present invention; wherein 1 is the coating layer and 2 is the main negative electrode material.
[0038] In the present invention, the primary negative electrode material comprises a carbon-based negative electrode material; the carbon-based negative electrode material preferably comprises one or more of graphite, soft carbon, hard carbon, and silicon carbon, with graphite being more preferred. The present invention does not particularly limit the source of the carbon-based negative electrode material; commercially available products familiar to those skilled in the art may be used.
[0039] In the present application, the coating layer comprises a conjugated carboxylate organic electrode material; the conjugated carboxylate organic electrode material preferably comprises one or more of a tetraliithiophtalate and derivatives thereof, a tetranatriophtalate and derivatives thereof, a tetranaphthalate and derivatives thereof, a ditosodium terephthalate and derivatives thereof, a tetranatriophtalate and derivatives thereof, a tetranaphthalate and derivatives thereof, more preferably one or two of a tetraliithiophtalate, a tetranatriophtalate, a tetranaphthalate; in a preferred embodiment of the present application, the conjugated carboxylate organic electrode material is specifically a tetraliithiophtalate, or a tetranatriophtalate, or a tetranaphthalate, or a tetraliithiophtalate and a tetranatriophtalate in a mass ratio of 1:1, or a tetranaphthalate, a tetranatriophtalate in a mass ratio of 1:1. The present application does not have special restrictions on the source of the conjugated carboxylate organic electrode material, and commercially available products known to those skilled in the art can be used.
[0040] In the present application, the conjugated carboxylate organic electrode material is selected as the coating material on the surface of the carbon-based negative electrode material, which has a lower redox potential and is close to the potential of the carbon-based negative electrode material (such as graphite), and can quickly combine with lithium ions; the conjugated carboxylate organic electrode material can be used as a negative electrode material, which itself has fast reaction kinetics, higher than common coating materials such as hard carbon and soft carbon, thus helping the main material of the negative electrode material to improve the speed of lithium intercalation and avoid lithium precipitation; at the same time, this type of electrode material also has high solubility in water, and can be completely dissolved by adding slurry during homogenization. Since the surface of the carbon-based negative electrode material often contains a certain amount of carbon material (such as soft carbon, hard carbon or both), there are some oxygen-containing functional groups such as -COOH and -OH, which can adsorb the dissolved conjugated carboxylate in water to achieve uniform coating. This coating method is simple and easy to implement, without adding additional production and manufacturing processes.
[0041] In the present application, the amount of the coating layer is preferably 0.2% to 1% based on the mass of the main material of the negative electrode material; specifically, it can be 0.2%, 0.3%, 0.4%, 0.5%, 0.6%, 0.7%, 0.8%, 0.9%, or 1%. On this basis, the present application can achieve uniform coating of the conjugated carboxylate organic electrode material on the surface of the main material of the negative electrode material, and the coated negative electrode material has faster reaction kinetics and less risk of lithium precipitation during fast charging or low-temperature charging.
[0042] The coated negative electrode material provided by the application adopts a conjugate carboxylate electrode material as a coating material to coat the surface of a negative electrode material main material (such as graphite), which is simple and easy to implement, has a fast lithium intercalation speed, and can effectively improve the lithium intercalation speed of the negative electrode material main material (such as graphite). The conjugate carboxylate organic electrode material has the disadvantage of poor electronic conductivity. If it is used as the main active material in the negative electrode slurry, a large amount of conductive carbon is needed to fully exert its performance. However, if a small amount of the conjugate carboxylate organic electrode material is used to coat the negative electrode material main material (such as graphite) with good electrical conductivity, this defect can be completely avoided. In addition, the lithium storage principle of the conjugate carboxylate organic electrode material is simple, which combines with lithium ions through coordination bonds, has fast reaction kinetics, and can help lithium ions to quickly intercalate into the negative electrode material main material (such as graphite).
[0043] The application further provides a preparation method of the coated negative electrode material.
[0044] The negative electrode material main material and the conjugate carboxylate organic electrode material are contacted in the presence of a solvent, and then the solvent is removed to obtain the coated negative electrode material.
[0045] In the application, the negative electrode material main material and the conjugate carboxylate organic electrode material are the same as in the above technical solution, and will not be described here.
[0046] In the application, the contacting process preferably includes:
[0047] The conjugate carboxylate organic electrode material is added to the negative electrode slurry and stirred uniformly; the negative electrode slurry includes the negative electrode material main material and a solvent.
[0048] In the application, the negative electrode slurry is the negative electrode slurry commonly used in the art for preparing the negative active material layer of the negative electrode sheet; to achieve the application, the negative electrode slurry includes the negative electrode material main material and a solvent; wherein the solvent can be any solvent commonly used in the art for homogenizing the negative electrode slurry (such as deionized water), and the application does not have special limitations.
[0049] In the application, the negative electrode slurry preferably further includes an additive; the additive preferably includes a binder and / or a conductive agent, more preferably a binder and a conductive agent; the specific components of the two can be any conventional type of binder and conductive agent commonly used in the art for preparing the negative electrode slurry. In the preferred embodiments of the application, the binder uses styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) and / or sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC); the conductive agent uses Super P.
[0050] In the present application, the mass ratio of the conjugated carboxylic acid salt organic electrode material to the additive in the negative electrode slurry is preferably (1-5):12; specifically, it can be 1:12, 1:6, 1:4, 1:3, or 5:12. In the preparation of the negative electrode slurry, the conjugated carboxylic acid salt organic electrode material is added to the negative electrode slurry in a certain proportion, so that the conjugated carboxylic acid salt organic electrode material coats the main material of the negative electrode material without affecting the basic performance of the negative electrode slurry.
[0051] The present application combines the coating process of the main material of the negative electrode material and the conjugated carboxylic acid salt organic electrode material into the homogenization process of the negative electrode slurry, and the coating does not require additional processes. At the same time, the conjugated carboxylic acid salt organic electrode material has high solubility in water and can be completely dissolved in the slurry during the homogenization process, thereby facilitating uniform coating of the main material of the negative electrode material (e.g., the oxygen-containing functional groups on the surface of graphite can adsorb the dissolved conjugated carboxylic acid salt and coat the surface of the graphite), thereby obtaining a coated negative electrode material.
[0052] The present application also provides a negative electrode sheet, which comprises a negative electrode current collector and a negative electrode active material layer arranged on at least one side surface of the negative electrode current collector in the thickness direction of the negative electrode current collector, wherein the negative electrode active material layer comprises the coated negative electrode material described in the above technical solution.
[0053] The present application does not have special limitations on the type and source of the negative electrode current collector, and commercially available negative electrode current collectors known to those skilled in the art for preparing negative electrode sheets can be used, such as copper foil current collectors. As an example, the negative electrode current collector has two opposite surfaces in its own thickness direction, and the negative electrode active material layer is arranged on any one or both of the two opposite surfaces of the negative electrode current collector.
[0054] In the present application, the negative electrode active material layer comprises the coated negative electrode material described in the above technical solution, and the conjugated carboxylic acid salt organic electrode material can be added to the negative electrode slurry during the homogenization process of the negative electrode slurry according to the preparation method described in the above technical solution, so as to coat the main material of the negative electrode material and obtain the negative electrode slurry.
[0055] Subsequently, the negative electrode slurry is coated on a negative electrode current collector according to the process steps for preparing a negative electrode sheet known to those skilled in the art, and then subjected to conventional steps such as drying (to remove the solvent) and rolling to obtain the desired negative electrode sheet.
[0056] The present application also provides a battery comprising the negative electrode sheet described in the above technical solution.
[0057] The negative pole piece provided by the application can be adapted to various battery systems, including but not limited to lithium ion batteries, sodium ion batteries and the like. Taking a lithium ion battery as an example, the lithium ion battery comprises the negative pole piece described in the above technical solution, a positive pole piece, a separator, an electrolyte and other necessary or unnecessary functional elements or packaging assemblies, etc., and a person skilled in the art can make any selection and combination thereof; wherein the separator includes but is not limited to PP, PE, a separator of PP material and a composite separator of any combination of various materials, and can also be a nanocellulose separator, which can play an insulating role and avoid direct contact between the positive and negative poles, and materials having certain mechanical strength, thermal stability, chemical stability and suitable porosity can all be used as the separator, and the application has no special limitation thereon; the electrolyte is LiPF6 dissolved in a mixed solvent of a conventional carbonate solvent and a carboxylate solvent, and usually contains a small amount of additives, and the application has no special limitation thereon. When the negative pole piece is included in the lithium ion battery, whether other composite electrodes are also used in the lithium ion battery or not, it can all be an embodiment of the application.
[0058] The application further provides an electric device comprising the battery described in the above technical solution. Specifically, the battery can be used as a power supply of the electric device or an energy storage unit of the electric device. The electric device can include but is not limited to mobile devices (such as mobile phones and notebook computers), electric vehicles (such as pure electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, electric bicycles, electric scooters, electric golf carts and electric trucks), electric trains, ships and satellites and energy storage systems.
[0059] The application provides a coated negative electrode material, a preparation method and application thereof. The coated negative electrode material comprises a negative electrode material main material and a coating layer for coating the negative electrode material main material. The negative electrode material main material comprises a carbon-based negative electrode material. The coating layer comprises a conjugated carboxylate organic electrode material. Compared with the prior art, the coated negative electrode material provided by the application uses a coating layer with specific components to coat a negative electrode material main material with specific components, so as to realize good interaction as a whole. The conjugated carboxylate organic electrode material has good coating properties and a reaction kinetics higher than that of common coating materials such as hard carbon and soft carbon, so as to help the negative electrode material main material to improve the lithium intercalation speed and reduce the risk of lithium precipitation during fast charging or low-temperature charging.
[0060] In addition, the preparation method provided by the application has simple process and controllable conditions, and coating can be completed by adding the conjugated carboxylate organic electrode material in the homogenate process, so as to have high preparation efficiency, and raw materials are easy to obtain and low in cost (for example, the synthesis of the conjugated carboxylate organic electrode material is also very simple, mainly by reacting a corresponding anhydride with sodium hydroxide, and the yield is more than 95%). Therefore, the preparation method has wide application prospects.
