The invention relates to a
spinel / layered composite phase modified
lithium-rich
manganese-based positive
electrode material and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method comprises the following steps: adding
lithium acetate,
manganese acetate,
cobalt acetate and
nickel acetate into deionized water, and proportioning according to a general formula LiNixCoyMnzO2 * Li2MnO3 (x + y + z = 1, 0.5 < = xlt, 0.75, 0.2 < = ylt, 0.25, 0 < = z < = 0.3) to obtain a
salt solution; precursor
powder is prepared through a
spray pyrolysis method; carrying out high-temperature
calcination treatment on the precursor
powder to obtain
powder; adding conductive
active carbon into the powder, and carrying out ball milling in absolute ethyl
alcohol; and
drying the ball-milled material in a blast
drying oven, and standing to obtain
spinel / layered composite phase modified
lithium-rich
manganese-based positive
electrode material powder. The charge transport characteristic and the dynamic performance of the lithium-rich manganese-based positive
electrode material are improved, so that the median
voltage of the positive
electrode material is greatly improved to 3.78 V, and meanwhile, the overall stability of the positive
electrode material is greatly improved. The finally prepared button
cell shows excellent
cycling stability, and within the
voltage of 2-4.8 V, the average median
voltage decline of each cycle is 1.15 mV after 400 cycles of 1C current; and meanwhile, the synthesis steps are simple and convenient, and the lithium-rich manganese-based positive
electrode material can be prepared by adopting conventional equipment.
