Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a method for analyzing the particle distribution on the cross-section of an electrode. Background Technology

[0002] The general steps of the existing method for quantifying the uniformity of particle distribution in the cross section of an electrode are as follows: first, obtain a scanning electron microscope (SEM) image of the porous electrode material; second, divide the SEM image into N equal parts and determine the number of silicon particles in each part; and finally, determine the uniformity of silicon material dispersion in the porous electrode based on the number of silicon particles in each part.

Second, standard deviation is more sensitive to outliers. In the cross-section of the electrode, if there are a small number of silicon particle aggregation areas, these outliers may significantly affect the calculation results of standard deviation.

[0107] The silicon-carbon deposition sample SA08 obtained at 1700℃ was mixed with conductive carbon black Super P and binder PAA at a mass ratio of 80:10:10 to obtain precursor three.

[0108] The silicon-carbon deposition sample SA14 obtained at 1800℃ was mixed with conductive carbon black Super P and binder PAA at a mass ratio of 80:10:10 to obtain precursor four.

[0109] ② Mixing: Using a high-shear mixer with a speed of 2000 rpm, mix precursor one, precursor two, precursor three and precursor four for 30 minutes each to obtain slurry one, slurry two, slurry three and slurry four.

[0110] ③ Coating: Slurry 1, slurry 2, slurry 3 and slurry 4 are uniformly coated on copper foil with a thickness of 100~150 μm, and the coating thickness is controlled at 100-120 μm, to obtain sample 1, sample 2, sample 3 and sample 4 respectively.

[0111] ④ Drying: Dry samples 1, 2, 3 and 4 in an oven at 60℃ for 12 hours to ensure that the samples are completely dry and form a uniform coating. After drying, the coating thickness of samples 1, 2, 3 and 4 is 70~90μm, and the total thickness including the copper foil is 190~230μm.

Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a clustering result obtained using the K-means algorithm in Example 1.

[0116] Then, the DBSCAN clustering algorithm was applied to the silicon particle region for a second segmentation, with a radius parameter of 5 pixels and a minimum number of points of 16, to further refine the segmentation into 100 silicon particles, thereby obtaining... Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a clustering result obtained using the DBSCAN algorithm in Example 1.

[0117] S3. Feature Extraction: Obtain the ordinate y2 of the centroid of the silicon particle and the ordinate y1 of the boundary between the copper foil region and the silicon particle region. Calculate the nearest distance d from the centroid of each silicon particle to the copper foil region, where d = min(y2-y1). After traversing all silicon particles, a dataset containing 100 distance values ​​is obtained.

[0118] S4. Statistical Analysis:

[0119] ① Plot the CDF curve based on the dataset, and then plot a uniformly distributed reference CDF curve, also known as the reference cumulative distribution function. The reference CDF curve is plotted using the following function expression:

[0120] ;

[0121] The d m This represents the maximum distance value in the dataset.

[0122] The comparison revealed a significant deviation between the actual CDF curve and the reference CDF curve, especially in the region near the copper foil.

[0123] ② Chi-square test and coefficient of variation calculation: The distance data for samples 1, 2, 3, and 4 are summarized separately, and CDF curves are plotted separately for chi-square test. The CDF curves of samples 1, 2, 3, and 4 are then plotted on the same coordinate axis to obtain the results. Figure 4 . Figure 4 The cumulative distribution function curves are obtained from the distance data of the centroid of silicon particles to the copper foil in samples one, two, three and four of Example 1.

[0124] The CDF curves of each sample were compared with the reference CDF curve using a chi-square test, which was performed using the following formula:

[0125] ;

[0126] Among them, the This represents the chi-square statistic, where A represents the number of groups included in the statistic, chosen as 100.

[0127] i represents the index number of the i-th group currently being calculated; O i E represents the measured frequency belonging to the i-th group in the dataset. i This represents the theoretical frequency of the i-th group under the reference cumulative distribution function distribution curve;

[0128] The coefficient of variation was then calculated on the dataset. Finish;

[0129] Wherein, s is the standard deviation of the dataset. The average value of the dataset is calculated using the following formula:

[0130] ;

[0131] ;

[0132] Where n is the number of data points in the dataset;

[0133] i is the index of the distance data in the dataset;

[0134] d i The distance data value with index i in the dataset;

[0135] The average distance data in the dataset. The standard deviation of the distance data in the dataset;

[0136] The CDF curves obtained from the calculated distances from the centroid of silicon particles to the copper foil for samples 1, 2, 3, and 4, compared with the reference CDF curve, showed chi-square statistics of 1150, 620, 1200, and 720, and coefficients of variation of 1.02, 0.88, 1.02, and 1.04, respectively. Based on the chi-square statistics and coefficients of variation for each sample, [further details are needed]. Figure 5 , Figure 5 The graph shows the chi-square statistics and coefficient of variation results for each sample in Example 1.

[0137] Uniformity assessment: Based on the chi-square statistic and coefficient of variation, the uniformity of silicon particle distribution in different samples was determined. According to the results, the chi-square statistic ranking is as follows: Sample 4 has the second smallest chi-square statistic and the largest coefficient of variation, indicating that it is relatively uniformly distributed in a wide range. In other words, the silicon particle distribution in Sample 4 is the most uniform, which is consistent with the expected results during preparation and effectively proves the reliability of this evaluation method.

[0138] Example 2

[0139] Steps S1 and S2 are the same as in Example 1, except that:

[0140] S3. Feature Extraction: Obtain the coordinates (x, y) of the centroid of the silicon particles. c ,y c ), the number of pixels m at the boundary between the copper foil region and the silicon particle region, and the coordinates (x, y) of the j-th pixel at the boundary between the copper foil region and the silicon particle region. j ,y j ), and calculate the radius of each silicon particle. The calculation formula is as follows:

[0141] ;

[0142] Where m is the number of pixels at the particle boundary, (x c ,y c (x) represents the coordinates of the particle's centroid. j ,y j ) represents the coordinates of the j-th pixel on the particle boundary.

[0143] r of all silicon particles i Values ​​form the radius dataset .

[0144] S4. Statistical Analysis: Based on the radius dataset Draw a frequency distribution histogram and a PDF curve, also known as a probability density function curve.

[0145] By comparing and analyzing the PDF curves of different samples, the concentration and dispersion characteristics of particle size distribution in each sample were quantitatively assessed. The PDF curves of different samples were plotted on the same coordinate axis, and the results are shown below. Figure 6 As shown, Figure 6 This is a probability density function (PDF) curve of the particle size distribution of each sample in Example 2.

[0146] Depend on Figure 6 As can be seen, the probability density curve of sample 3 has the narrowest radius distribution range and the most obvious peak, which is concentrated in the range of smaller radii. The probability density curve radius distribution ranges of samples 1, 4, and 2 gradually widen, indicating that the particle size distribution gradually disperses. Therefore, sample 3 has the most small-sized particles, which is consistent with the expected results obtained from the preparation, further proving the reliability of this evaluation method.
