Description

A high-nickel ternary precursor, a lithium-rich cathode material, and a preparation method thereof. Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of battery technology and relates to a lithium-rich cathode, particularly to a high-nickel ternary precursor, a lithium-rich cathode material, and a preparation method thereof. Background Technology

[0002] Lithium-ion batteries, with their advantages of high energy density and long cycle life, are widely used in electric vehicles, communications, and energy storage, and the energy density requirements for individual cells are becoming increasingly stringent. The cathode material of lithium-ion batteries, as the source and carrier of battery energy, greatly contributes to improving the energy density of lithium-ion batteries. High-nickel ternary cathode materials, in particular, possess the advantages of high specific capacity and high energy density.

[0003] Solid-state batteries offer the advantage of ultra-high energy density, and high-nickel ternary cathode materials are better suited for solid-state battery systems, further enhancing their energy density. However, the stability of high-nickel materials still requires improvement. Conventional improvement methods often involve adding a coating layer to enhance stability, but these methods cannot address the inherent instability of the material.

[0004] To address this, it is necessary to improve the intrinsic stability of lithium-rich cathode materials with high nickel content, and to provide a high-nickel ternary precursor, a lithium-rich cathode material, and a preparation method accordingly. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The following is an overview of the subject matter described in detail herein. This overview is not intended to limit the scope of the claims.

[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the purpose of this application is to provide a high-nickel ternary precursor, a lithium-rich cathode material, and a preparation method thereof. The high-nickel ternary precursor, by setting the Ti content and coordinating it with the lithium content in the lithium-rich cathode material, improves the capacity and stability of the resulting lithium-rich cathode material.

[0007] To achieve this objective, the present application adopts the following technical solution:

[0010] The chemical formula of the high-nickel ternary precursor is Ni 0.9 Mn x Ti y(OH)2, where 0.02≤x≤0.08, 0.01≤y≤0.04.

[0011] The method for preparing the high-nickel ternary precursor provided in this application uses a titanium-source hydrogen peroxide solution for titanium doping during the co-precipitation process. Titanium ions have a relatively large radius; titanium doping into the high-nickel ternary cathode material increases the lithium-oxygen layer, providing a wider channel for lithium ion insertion and extraction, reducing the diffusion resistance of lithium ions in the electrode material, thereby improving the lithium ion migration rate and capacity. Furthermore, high titanium doping content can form a lithium-rich structure with excess lithium, allowing the material to accommodate more lithium while improving structural stability, thus enhancing the cycle stability of the lithium-rich cathode material. Therefore, the preparation method provided in this application, by adding Ti during the co-precipitation process and controlling the Li ratio in the resulting lithium-rich cathode material, improves the capacity and stability of the obtained lithium-rich cathode material.

[0012] In one embodiment, the titanium source in the titanium source hydrogen peroxide solution includes titanium sulfate and / or titanium oxysulfate.

[0023] In one embodiment, the temperature of the coprecipitation reaction is 40°C-80°C.

[0024] In one embodiment, the coprecipitation reaction takes 60-100 hours.

[0025] In one embodiment, the coprecipitation reaction is carried out under stirring conditions at a speed of 200 r / min to 400 r / min.

[0026] In one embodiment, the precipitant in the precipitant solution includes sodium hydroxide.

[0027] In one embodiment, the complexing agent in the complexing agent solution includes any one or a combination of at least two of ammonia, citric acid, or sodium citrate.

[0028] Secondly, this application provides a high-nickel ternary precursor, which is prepared by the preparation method described in the first aspect.

[0029] Thirdly, this application provides a method for preparing a lithium-rich cathode material, the method comprising the following steps:

[0030] A mixture of lithium source and the high-nickel ternary precursor described in the second aspect is heat-treated to obtain the lithium-rich cathode material Li. 1+a Ni 0.9 Mn x Ti y O2, where 0.02≤a≤0.08, 0.02≤x≤0.08, and 0.01≤y≤0.04.

[0031] In one embodiment, the heat treatment includes a first heat treatment and a second heat treatment performed sequentially.

[0032] In one embodiment, the temperature of the first heat treatment is 480℃-520℃, and the time is 4.5h-5.5h.

[0033] In one embodiment, the temperature of the second heat treatment is 700℃-900℃, and the time is 10h-16h.

[0034] Fourthly, this application provides a lithium-rich cathode material, which is prepared by the preparation method described in the third aspect.

[0035] The numerical range described in this application includes not only the point values ​​listed above, but also any point values ​​within the numerical ranges not listed above. Due to space limitations and for the sake of brevity, this application will not exhaustively list the specific point values ​​included in the range.

[0036] Compared with the prior art, this application has the following advantages:

[0037] Titanium ions have a relatively large radius.
