Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of lithium ion battery cathode material, and particularly relates to a cathode material, a preparation method and a lithium ion battery. BACKGROUND

[0002] Lithium manganate (LiMn2O4) is one of the cathode materials of lithium ion batteries, and has a good application prospect due to its low price, excellent performance and high safety. In recent years, manganese tetroxide (Mn3O4) as a precursor for preparing lithium manganate has attracted much attention, and has the same spinel structure as lithium manganate, has a small phase change stress in the preparation of lithium manganate, and will not cause severe structural changes, which is beneficial to the capacity retention of lithium batteries. The main preparation methods of manganese tetroxide include metal manganese oxidation method, manganese carbonate calcination method and manganese salt method (also known as solution precipitation oxidation method). Among them, the manganese salt method is widely used due to its low production cost, which uses soluble divalent manganese as raw material, precipitates and hydrolyzes divalent manganese by adjusting pH, and then adds an oxidizing agent to generate manganese tetroxide. Common manganese salts include manganese sulfate (MnSO4), manganese chloride (MnCl2), manganese nitrate (Mn(NO3)2) and the like.

[0003] Lithium manganate as a cathode material has a series of problems. On the one hand, the existence of Mn 3+ may cause Jahn-Teller effect, induce the collapse of lithium manganate structure, and reduce the cycle performance of the material; on the other hand, Mn 2+ may be dissolved in the electrolyte to make its structure unstable. Therefore, in order to further improve the performance of lithium manganate product, element doping means is often used to improve its structural stability, such as doping metal ions such as Al 3+ , Ti 4+, rare earth ions, etc. For example, a spherical aluminum-doped trimanganese tetroxide and a preparation method thereof are disclosed in Chinese Patent Application Publication No. CN 102544472A. A mixed solution containing trivalent aluminum and divalent manganese is first prepared by a manganese salt method, then the mixed solution is co-precipitated with a sodium hydroxide solution, and finally the spherical aluminum-doped trimanganese tetroxide is obtained by oxidation treatment. This method can effectively control the impurity content and range of the product, uniformly dopes aluminum at the molecular level, and significantly improves the cycle performance and high-temperature performance of the lithium manganate product. For another example, a ferrum-doped trimanganese tetroxide material and a preparation method thereof are disclosed in Chinese Patent Application Publication No. CN 120057991A. In view of the problems of high sulfur content and Jahn-Teller effect in the preparation of trimanganese tetroxide using manganese sulfate as the manganese source, DTPA ferric ammonium salt is used as a complexing agent and a doping agent, and ammonia is used as the lye, which improves the uniformity of iron element doping, and obtains trimanganese tetroxide with uniform particle size and high tap density. At the same time, ethanol is introduced as a dispersing agent to reduce the sulfur content in the product, and a lithium manganate precursor material with excellent cycle life and good rate performance is prepared. The deficiency is that the above-mentioned element doping methods cannot well improve the problem of large particle size of trimanganese tetroxide. For example, the particle size of spherical aluminum-doped trimanganese tetroxide (Mn3O4·0.052Al2O3) D 50 is 9.7 μm, and the particle size index D 50 increases continuously with the increase of the percentage content of aluminum ions.

[0004] The particle size of trimanganese tetroxide can directly affect the crystal structure, electrochemical performance, and cycle stability of lithium manganate. Specifically, 1) improving battery performance: trimanganese tetroxide with small particle size has a larger specific surface area, which can increase the contact area of active substances, thereby improving the charge and discharge efficiency and energy density of the battery; 2) improving the cycle stability of the battery: trimanganese tetroxide with small particle size can be better dispersed in the positive electrode material of the battery, reducing the agglomeration phenomenon between particles, which helps to improve the cycle stability and service life of the battery; 3) reducing the internal resistance of the battery: trimanganese tetroxide with small particle size can reduce the ion transport path inside the battery, reduce the internal resistance of the battery, and improve the working efficiency of the battery.
