The invention discloses a high-
magnification low-expansion modified
silicon-carbon
composite material and a preparation method and application thereof, the modified
silicon-carbon
composite material is of a particle structure and comprises a
silicon-carbon material serving as an inner core and a
fluorine-containing
conductive polymer layer
coating the surface of the silicon-carbon material; the silicon-carbon material is obtained by
coating the surfaces of silicon particles with carbon
layers; the
fluorine-containing
conductive polymer layer is obtained by initiating
polymerization of a first
monomer and a second
monomer, and the first
monomer is a
fluorine-containing
polymer monomer. The preparation method comprises the following steps: putting the silicon-carbon material, a first monomer and a second monomer into a
hydrothermal reaction kettle, adding a mixed
solvent of water and
ethanol, heating while stirring, adding an initiator after heating to a target temperature, preserving heat, reacting, cooling, carrying out suction
filtration, washing with water, and
drying to obtain the fluoro-coated silicon-carbon material, namely the modified silicon-carbon
composite material. According to the application, the modified silicon-carbon composite material serves as a negative
electrode active component and is mixed with a conductive agent, a binding agent and a dispersing agent, so that the negative
electrode coating slurry for preparing the negative
electrode plate of the
lithium ion battery is formed.
