The invention discloses a
porous silicon-carbon composite negative
electrode material, a one-step preparation method, a
lithium ion battery and application, and belongs to the technical field of
lithium ion battery materials, the method comprises the following steps: mixing a
silicon source,
magnesium powder, a
carbon source and a soluble pore forming agent to obtain mixed
powder; performing high-energy mechanical ball milling on the mixed
powder in an
inert atmosphere, and performing acid
pickling, high-temperature
carbonization treatment, cooling,
water washing, suction
filtration and
drying to obtain the
porous silicon-carbon composite negative
electrode material; the
porous silicon-carbon composite negative
electrode material comprises a porous shell formed by amorphous
porous carbon and a porous core formed by
silicon nanoparticles embedded in the porous shell, the mechanical collision energy generated in the high-energy mechanical ball milling process triggers the low-temperature magnesiothermic reduction reaction between the
silicon source and the
magnesium powder, the
carbon source is attached to the surfaces of silicon particles while the silicon particles are generated, and silicon synthesis,
carbon coating and pore forming are synchronously achieved. The silicon-based negative electrode has the advantages of high initial coulombic efficiency, high specific capacity, excellent cycle stability and rate capability, and effectively solves the problems of
volume expansion and large-scale preparation of the silicon-based negative electrode.
