This invention provides a
silver fluoride composite
silicon-carbon material, its preparation method, and its application, relating to the field of
silicon-carbon
material technology. The preparation method includes: mixing a
silicon-
carbon matrix, a silver source, and a
carbon source in a liquid environment, followed by evaporating the
solvent to obtain a composite precursor; heat-treating the composite precursor in an
inert atmosphere at 400℃-600℃ to obtain a composite intermediate; and fluorinating the composite intermediate to obtain the
silver fluoride composite silicon-carbon material. This invention, by
coating the surface of the silicon-
carbon matrix with a buffer layer containing nano-
silver fluoride particles, helps to constrain the
volume expansion of silicon during
cycling and maintain the integrity of the
electrode structure. Furthermore, the
heterojunction formed between the buffer layer and the silicon-
carbon matrix can reduce
interfacial impedance and induce the formation of a dense
lithium fluoride-based SEI film, effectively improving
structural stability. Simultaneously, the formation of C-F bonds enhances
interfacial bonding and promotes
lithium-
ion migration, contributing to improved
cycling performance.
