The embodiments described in the present invention and related drawings are exemplary and schematic, and are used to generally understand the present invention. The embodiments of the present invention should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

For example, if terms A and B are listed, "at least one of A and B" means only A, only B, or A and B. In other examples, if terms A, B, and C are listed, "at least one of A, B, and C" means only A, or only B, only C, A and B (excluding C), A and C (excluding B), B and C (excluding A), or any of A, B, C. Term A may include a single element or a plurality of elements. Term B may include a single element or a plurality of elements. Term C may include a single element or a plurality of elements.

[0029] With the widespread use of electrochemical devices (e.g., lithium-ion batteries), improvement of their performance is first and foremost required. Energy density, cycle characteristics, and rate characteristics are important indicators for evaluating the performance of lithium-ion batteries. So far, no effective means have been developed to simultaneously improve the energy density, cycle characteristics, and rate characteristics of lithium-ion batteries.

[0030] The present invention solves the above problems by optimizing the anode active material. Specifically, the present invention provides an anode active material, the anode active material includes a carbon material, where the carbon material satisfies the following relationship: 6 < Gr / K < 16, where Gr is the graphitization degree of the carbon material obtained by measurement by X-ray diffraction method, and K is the ratio of the peak intensity Id at 1250 cm -1 ~1650 cm -1 of the carbon material measured by Raman spectroscopy and the peak intensity Ig at 1500 cm -1 ~1650 cm -1 of the carbon material, that is, Id / Ig, and the K is 0.06 to 0.15.

[0031] In some embodiments, the graphitization degree Gr and K of the carbon material satisfy the following relationship: 8 < Gr / K < 15. In some embodiments, the graphitization degree Gr and K of the carbon material satisfy the following relationship: 10 < Gr / K < 12. In some embodiments, the ratio Gr / K of the graphitization degree Gr and K of the carbon material is 6.5, 7, 7.5, 8, 8.5, 9, 9.5, 10, 10.5, 11, 11.5, 12, 12.5, 13, 13.5, 14, 14.5, 15, 15.5, or within the range composed of any two of the above values.

[0032] In some embodiments, K of the carbon material is 0.08 to 0.10. In some embodiments, K of the carbon material is 0.06, 0.07, 0.08, 0.09, 0.10, 0.11, 0.12, 0.13, 0.14, 0.15, or within the range composed of any two of the above values.

[0033] K of the carbon material can indicate the ratio of the surface defects and crystal regions of the material. K is measured by Raman spectroscopy. Specifically, using a light source of 523 nm (light shielding intensity 5%), 100 points are sampled in a region of 100 μm × 100 μm, and for the carbon material at 1250 cm -1 ~1650 cm -1 the peak intensity Id and the ratio of the peak intensity Ig of the carbon material at 1500 cm -1 ~1650 cm -1 are calculated, and the average value is obtained as the K value of the carbon material.

[0034] The "graphitization degree" of the carbon material refers to the degree to which non-graphitic carbon is converted into graphitic carbon in the carbon material at high temperature or during secondary heating. The graphitization degree of the carbon material is obtained by the following method. Specifically, using high-purity silicon powder as an internal standard substance, the interplanar spacing (d002) of the 002 plane of the carbon material is measured by X-ray diffraction, and the graphitization degree Gr of the carbon material is calculated according to the following formula: Gr = (0.344 - d002) / 0.086 × 100%.

[0035] The graphitization degree and K value of the carbon material in the negative electrode active material affect the insertion and desorption of lithium ions. For example, during the discharge cycle of a lithium-ion battery, lithium ions move to the negative electrode, and the negative electrode accepts the lithium ions. The graphitization degree and K value of the carbon material affect the speed at which lithium ions are inserted into the carbon material particles. Under high-rate discharge conditions, if lithium ions cannot be inserted and diffused into the carbon material particles quickly, the lithium ions will precipitate on the surface, accelerating the cycle decay of the lithium-ion battery. During the charge cycle of a lithium-ion battery, lithium ions are desorbed from the negative electrode. If lithium ions cannot be desorbed from the negative electrode quickly, dead lithium will be formed inside the carbon material particles, which will also accelerate the cycle decay of the lithium-ion battery. The graphitization degree and K value of the carbon material also affect the thickness of the solid electrolyte interface (SEI) film formed during the first cycle of the lithium-ion battery, thereby affecting the first coulombic efficiency of the lithium-ion battery, and thus the energy density of the lithium-ion battery.

[0036] When the carbon material has a relatively high degree of graphitization (e.g., Gr>0.96), the crystal plane spacing of the carbon material becomes narrow, which is unfavorable for the desorption of lithium ions from the carbon material. When the carbon material has a relatively low degree of graphitization (e.g., Gr<0.92), the SPs in the carbon material 3 The relatively large number of bonds binds the layers of the carbon material together, making the structure of the carbon material more stable.

[0037] When the graphitization degree Gr of the carbon material and the ratio Gr / K of the graphitization degree to K of the carbon material are within the above ranges, the lithium ion battery has significantly improved energy density, cycle characteristics, and rate characteristics.

[0038] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the graphitization degree Gr of the carbon material is 0.92 to 0.96. In some embodiments, the graphitization degree Gr of the carbon material is 0.92, 0.93, 0.94, 0.95, 0.96, or within a range formed by any two of the above values. When the graphitization degree of the carbon material is within the above range, it contributes to further improving the energy density, cycle characteristics, and rate characteristics of the lithium ion battery.

[0039] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the carbon material satisfies at least one of the following relationships: Lc / S<9, La / S>20, Where: La is the crystallite size along the horizontal axis of the carbon material crystal measured by X-ray diffraction, and is expressed in nm; Lc is the crystallite size along the vertical axis of the carbon material crystal as measured by X-ray diffraction, in nm; S is the ratio of the peak area C004 of the (004) plane of the negative electrode active material obtained by measuring the X-ray diffraction pattern to the peak area C110 of the (110) plane, The Lc is less than 45 and the La is greater than 50.

In some embodiments, Lc / S is 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5, 6, 6.5, 7, 7.5, 8, 8.5, or within a range formed by any two of the aforementioned endpoints.

[0041] In some embodiments, La / S>22. In some embodiments, La / S>25. In some embodiments, La / S>28. In some embodiments, La / S>30. In some embodiments, La / S<60. In some embodiments, La / S<55. In some embodiments, La / S<50. In some embodiments, La / S is 22, 25, 28, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, or within a range formed by any two of the aforementioned endpoints.

[0042] In some embodiments, the Lc is less than 40. In some embodiments, the Lc is less than 35. In some embodiments, the Lc is less than 30. In some embodiments, the Lc is less than 25. In some embodiments, the Lc is greater than 10. In some embodiments, the Lc is greater than 15. In some embodiments, the Lc is greater than 20. In some embodiments, the Lc is 20, 22, 25, 28, 30, 35, 40, 43, or within a range consisting of any two of the foregoing values.

[0043] In some embodiments, the La is greater than 60. In some embodiments, the La is greater than 80. In some embodiments, the La is greater than 100.

In some embodiments, the La is greater than 180. In some embodiments, the La is greater than 200. In some embodiments, the La is greater than 220. In some embodiments, the La is less than 300. In some embodiments, the La is less than 250. In some embodiments, the La is 55, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 120, 150, 180, 200, 230, 250, or within a range consisting of any two of the above values.

[0044] The crystallite size of the carbon material crystals affects the insertion and desorption of lithium ions during cycling. The ratio S of the peak area C004 of the (004) plane of the negative electrode active material obtained from the X-ray diffraction pattern to the peak area C110 of the (110) plane of the negative electrode active material can indicate the degree of orientation of the negative electrode active material. The larger S is, the greater the anisotropy of the negative electrode active material. The smaller S is, the greater the isotropy of the negative electrode active material. If the crystallite size of the carbon material and the ratio of the crystallite size to the degree of orientation are within the above ranges, this contributes to further improving the energy density, cycle characteristics, and rate characteristics of the lithium ion battery.

[0045] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the Dv10 value and the Dv90 value of the negative electrode active material satisfy the following relationship: Dv90 / Dv10+Dv90>23.0, and the units of Dv90 and Dv10 are μm. "Dv90" refers to a particle size at which the cumulative volume from the small particle size side is 90% in the particle size distribution on a volume basis of the negative electrode active material, that is, the volume of the negative electrode active material smaller than the particle size occupies 90% of the total volume of the negative electrode active material. "Dv10" refers to a particle size at which the cumulative volume from the small particle size side is 10% in the particle size distribution on a volume basis of the negative electrode active material, that is, the volume of the negative electrode active material smaller than the particle size occupies 10% of the total volume of the negative electrode active material. The particle size of the negative electrode active material is obtained by measuring with a particle size measuring device (e.g., Malvern particle size distribution measuring device).

[0046] In some embodiments, the Dv10 value and the Dv90 value of the negative electrode active material satisfy the following relationship: Dv90 / Dv10+Dv90>25.0. In some embodiments, the Dv10 value and the Dv90 value of the negative electrode active material satisfy the following relationship: Dv90 / Dv10+Dv90>28.0.

In some embodiments, the negative active material has a Dv10 value and a Dv90 value that satisfy the following relationship: Dv90 / Dv10+Dv90<35.0. In some embodiments, the negative active material has a Dv90 / Dv10+Dv90 value that is 24, 26, 28, 30, 33, 35, or within a range formed by any two of the above values. In the above relationships, the units of Dv90 and Dv10 are μm.

[0047] When the particle size of the negative electrode active material is relatively large, the specific surface area of ​​the negative electrode active material is relatively small, so that the lithium ion battery needs to consume relatively few lithium ions to form a solid electrolyte interface (SEI) film with the electrolyte during the first cycle, thereby improving the initial coulombic efficiency of the lithium ion battery. In addition, the relatively large particle size can extend the path of lithium ion insertion and desorption, thereby degrading the dynamic properties of the lithium ion battery. In addition, the relatively large particle size also has a negative effect on the post-cycle expansion of the lithium ion battery. Conversely, when the particle size of the negative electrode active material is relatively small, the specific surface area of ​​the negative electrode active material is relatively large, so that the lithium ion battery needs to consume more lithium ions to form a SEI film with the electrolyte during the first cycle, thereby reducing the initial coulombic efficiency of the lithium ion battery. In addition, the relatively small particle size can shorten the path of lithium ion insertion and desorption, thereby affecting the dynamic properties of the lithium ion battery. In addition, the relatively small particle size also has a negative effect on the post-cycle expansion of the lithium ion battery. When the Dv90 and Dv10 of the negative electrode active material satisfy the above-mentioned relationship, the various characteristics of the ion battery are balanced, which contributes to further improving the energy density, cycle characteristics, and rate characteristics of the lithium ion battery.

[0053] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the ratio S' of the peak area C004' of the (004) plane of the negative electrode active material layer measured by X-ray diffraction pattern in a fully discharged state to the peak area C110' of the (110) plane of the negative electrode active material layer is in the range of 10 to 20. In some embodiments, the ratio S' of the negative electrode active material layer measured by X-ray diffraction pattern in a fully discharged state is in the range of 12 to 18. In some embodiments, the ratio S' of the negative electrode active material layer measured by X-ray diffraction pattern in a fully discharged state is in the range of 14 to 16.

S' may indicate the degree of orientation of the negative electrode active material layer. The larger S' is, the greater the anisotropy of the negative electrode active material layer is. The smaller S' is, the greater the isotropy of the negative electrode active material layer.

[0054] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the peel strength between the negative electrode active material layer and the negative electrode current collector is 6 N / m to 15 N / m. In some embodiments, the peel strength between the negative electrode active material layer and the negative electrode current collector is 8 N / m to 14 N / m. In some embodiments, the peel strength between the negative electrode active material layer and the negative electrode current collector is 10 N / m to 12 N / m. In some embodiments, the peel strength between the negative electrode active material layer and the negative electrode current collector is 6 N / m, 7 N / m, 8 N / m, 9 N / m, 10 N / m, 11 N / m, 12 N / m, 13 N / m, 14 N / m, 15 N / m, or within a range formed by any two of the above values.

[0055] The peel strength between the negative electrode active material layer and the negative electrode current collector is obtained by a tensile test. Specifically, an Instron (33652 type) measuring device is used to measure the adhesion between the negative electrode active material layer and the negative electrode current collector. More specifically, a 15-20 mm long electrode sheet is taken, fixed to a steel plate with 3M double-sided tape, the tape is attached to the surface of the negative electrode active material layer, one side of the tape is connected to a paper tape of equal width, the limit block of the tension machine is adjusted to an appropriate position, the paper tape is folded upward, and slid 40 mm, the sliding speed is 50 mm / min, and the peel strength between the negative electrode active material layer and the negative electrode current collector at 180° (i.e., stretched in the opposite direction) is measured.

[0056] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the negative active material layer has a porosity of 20% to 40%. In some embodiments, the negative active material layer has a porosity of 25% to 35%. In some embodiments, the negative active material layer has a porosity of 28% to 32%. In some embodiments, the porosity of the negative active material layer is 20%, 22%, 25%, 28%, 30%, 32%, 35%, 38%, 40%, or within a range consisting of any two of the above values. The porosity of the negative active material layer is obtained by the standard test of "GB / T24586-2009 Measurement of Surface Density, True Density and Porosity of Iron Ore".

[0057] When the surface density of the negative electrode active material layer is constant, decreasing the compressed density of the negative electrode active material layer reduces the anisotropy and porosity of the negative electrode active material layer, and reduces the peel strength between the negative electrode active material layer and the negative electrode current collector. When the compressed density of the negative electrode active material layer is constant, decreasing the surface density of the negative electrode active material layer increases the anisotropy of the negative electrode active material layer, reduces the porosity of the negative electrode active material layer, and reduces the peel strength between the negative electrode active material layer and the negative electrode current collector. When the surface density, compressed density, degree of orientation S', porosity, and / or peel strength between the negative electrode active material layer and the negative electrode current collector are within the above ranges, this contributes to further improving the energy density, cycle characteristics, and rate characteristics of the lithium ion battery.

In some embodiments, when the electrochemical device is fully charged, the thermal decomposition temperature of the negative electrode active material layer is 340° C. or higher. When the electrochemical device is fully charged, lithium ions are inserted into the pores of the negative electrode material, and the thermal decomposition temperature of the negative electrode active material layer can represent the degree of high-temperature aging of the negative electrode, i.e., the higher the decomposition temperature of the negative electrode active material, the lower the degree of high-temperature aging, and the better the high-temperature cycle characteristics of the lithium ion battery.

[0059] According to an embodiment of the present invention, when the electrochemical device is fully discharged, the thermal decomposition temperature of the negative electrode active material layer is 130° C. or higher.

In some embodiments, when the electrochemical device is fully discharged, the thermal decomposition temperature of the negative electrode active material layer is 160° C. or higher. When the electrochemical device is fully discharged, all lithium ions are desorbed from the negative electrode, and the thermal decomposition temperature of the negative electrode active material layer can indirectly indicate the stability of the SEI film, i.e., the higher the thermal decomposition temperature of the negative electrode active material layer, the better the thermal stability of the SEI film, and the fewer lithium ions consumed to repair the SEI film during the cycle of the lithium ion battery, resulting in better cycle characteristics of the lithium ion battery.

[0060] The thermal decomposition temperature of the negative electrode active material layer can be measured by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).

As shown in Comparative Example 2, when the ratio Gr / K of the graphitization degree Gr to K of the negative electrode active material is greater than 16 and K is less than 0.06, the initial coulombic efficiency of the lithium ion battery is relatively low, severe lithium precipitation occurs (see FIG. 5), the cycle capacity retention rate is very low, and the cycle expansion rate is very high.

The significant increase in the initial coulombic efficiency indicates that the energy density of the lithium ion battery is significantly increased. The significant increase in the cycle capacity retention rate and the significant decrease in the cycle expansion rate indicate that the cycle characteristics of the lithium ion battery are significantly improved. The improvement in the lithium precipitation phenomenon contributes to a significant increase in the rate characteristics of the lithium ion battery. Therefore, the lithium ion batteries of Examples 1 to 36 have significantly improved energy density, cycle characteristics, and rate characteristics.

[0129] When the graphitization degree Gr of the negative electrode active material is within the range of 0.92 to 0.96, the overall characteristics are more excellent.

[0130] In the negative electrode active material, when the crystallite size of the carbon material and the degree of orientation of the negative electrode active material satisfy the following relationship: Lc / S<9, La / S>20, Lc<45 and La>50, the initial coulombic efficiency, cycle capacity retention rate, cycle expansion rate and / or lithium precipitation phenomenon of the lithium ion battery can be further improved, and the overall properties of the lithium ion battery can be improved.

As shown in the figure, the negative electrode active material of Comparative Example 2 contains only primary particles. FIG. 2 shows a scanning electron microscope (SEM) image of the negative electrode active material used in Example 5, magnified 500 times.

FIG. 7 shows a curve showing the relationship between the number of cycles and the cycle capacity retention rate at 45° C. for the lithium ion batteries in Comparative Example 1, Comparative Example 2, and Example 5. From the results, it can be seen that the lithium ion battery in Example 5 maintains a cycle capacity retention rate of 90% or more at 25° C. and 45° C., compared with Comparative Examples 1 and 2. With the increase in the number of cycles, the difference in the cycle capacity retention rate between Example 5 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2 gradually increases. FIG. 8 shows a curve showing the relationship between the number of cycles and the cycle expansion rate at 25° C. for the lithium ion batteries in Comparative Example 1, Comparative Example 2, and Example 5. FIG. 9 shows a curve showing the relationship between the number of cycles and the cycle expansion rate at 45° C. for the lithium ion batteries in Comparative Example 1, Comparative Example 2, and Example 5. From the results, it can be seen that the lithium ion battery in Example 5 has a cycle expansion rate of less than 8% at 25° C. and a cycle expansion rate of less than 10% at 45° C., compared with Comparative Examples 1 and 2. With the increase of cycle number, the difference in cycle expansion rate between Example 5 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2 gradually increases. From the above results, it can be seen that the lithium ion battery of Example 5 has significantly improved cycle performance during cycles at room temperature and high temperature.

[0135] The results show that when the areal density of the negative active material layer is fixed, the overall performance of the battery can be affected by the compression density of the negative active material layer, the isotropy (S' reduction) of the negative active material layer, the porosity, and the peel strength between the negative active material layer and the negative current collector. 2 ~0.121mg / mm 2 and a compressed density of 1.70 g / cm 3 ~1.92g / cm 3When the S' of the lithium ion battery in a fully discharged state is 10 to 20, the peel strength between the negative electrode active material layer and the negative electrode current collector is 6 N / m to 15 N / m, the porosity of the negative electrode active material layer is 20% to 40%, the thermal decomposition temperature of the negative electrode active material layer in a fully charged state is 280°C or higher, and / or the thermal decomposition temperature of the negative electrode active material layer in a fully discharged state is 130°C or higher, the initial coulombic efficiency, cycle capacity retention rate, cycle expansion rate, and / or lithium precipitation phenomenon of the lithium ion battery are further improved, thereby improving the overall characteristics of the lithium ion battery. When the compressed density of the negative electrode active material layer is fixed, the areal density of the negative electrode active material layer is 0.100 mg / mm 2 Lithium ion batteries have relatively good overall characteristics.
