Description
本发明属于锂电池正极材料技术领域,具体涉及一种单晶锰基锂电池正极材料及其制备方法。
锂电池的性能主要取决于正极材料、负极材料、电解液和隔膜,其中正极材料是最关键的部分,正极材料的研发已成为决定锂离子发展的关键。理想的正极材料应具备的特点:(1)放电平台高且平稳性好,与电解液不发生反应;(2)晶体结构稳定,在充放电过程中氧化还原电位的变化量小,良好的循环性能和平稳的放电平台;(3)较高的锂离子扩散系数,可降低极化程度,减少能量损耗,并且获得较快的充放电;(4)锂离子反应中有较大的吉布斯自由能,以减少极化造成的能量损失。
单晶锰基锂电池正极材料属于尖晶石锰酸锂(LiMn2O4)正极材料性能改善后的升级版。单纯的锰酸锂正极材料虽然具有较高的安全性和高倍率放电能力,低廉的价格,但其较低的比容量,较差的循环性能,特别是高温循环性能使其应用受到了较大的限制,尽管经过最近十几年的研究,循环性能得到一定的改善,但是高温循环性能还没有得到较好的解决,严重滞后于镍钴锰酸锂、钴酸锂和磷酸铁锂的发展和应用。
结构性的和化学性的原因导致LiMn2O4在常温下容量衰减,高温下电解液中的HF导致的锰溶解会加剧,化学效应加剧协同结构效应,导致其高温下容量的快速衰减。改善尖晶石LiMn2O4的高温循环性能,必须从尖晶石的体相、表面相和晶体一次粒子大小着手,通过稳定其体相抑制其结构性变化,通过改善其表面相来防止其化学性变化,通过调整合成条件改变尖晶石晶体形貌、表面积大小来降低锰溶解速率来提升高温循环性能。
公开号为CN111640937A的专利申请公开了一种单晶锰酸锂材料的制备方法,所述方法中,按所需配比称取原料锰化合物以及硫酸钠,加入到去离子水中,搅拌1-10h后,在100-150℃下反应10-15h,冷却后过滤收集沉淀,使用去离子水洗涤1-5次,干燥得到β-MnO2前驱体;将所得到的β-MnO2前驱体与锂源、掺杂元素M的化合物按一定比例进行混合,烧结后得到成品,成品分子式为Li1+aMn2-a-bMbO4,0≤a≤0.2,0<b≤0.2,其中掺杂元素M为Al、Ti、Zr、Si、Zn、Mg、Ga、B、Cr、Co、Y中的一
种或几种。该发明需通过液相法制备β-MnO2前驱体,制备时需要大量的离子水洗涤,若对过程产生的废水处理不当会给环境带来污染。
公开号为CN113285068A的专利申请公开了一种单晶锰酸锂正极材料及其制备方法,所述制备方法步骤为:第一步,将Li的化合物、Mn的化合物以及含掺杂元素M的化合物混合均匀;在650~950℃下进行第一次烧结,冷却,破碎,过筛得到单晶锰酸锂一次烧结物料;第二步,用包覆元素N的化合物对单晶锰酸锂一次烧结物料进行表面包覆,得到包覆的单晶锰酸锂一次烧结物料;第三步,将包覆的单晶锰酸锂一次烧结物料在300~800℃下进行第二次烧结,冷却,破碎,即得单晶锰酸锂正极材料。该发明制备的单晶锰酸锂正极材料的充放电循环时的结构稳定性好,高温及常温循环性能和高温存储性能优异,但是扣式电池测试容量发挥不高,在工作电压3.0~4.3V,0.1C放电电流下的常温容量仅在106.2~110.5mAh/g之间。
公开号为CN111362307A的专利申请公开了一种锂离子电池用单晶锰酸锂正极材料的制备方法,所述方法包括6个步骤:步骤A,将小颗粒锰源,碳酸锂,添加剂按照比例球磨混合;步骤B:将球磨混合的物料低温烧结;步骤C,将低温烧结的物料,细晶锰酸锂晶种和烧结助剂按比例球磨混合;步骤D,将球磨混合后的含有细晶锰酸锂晶种的混合料装钵烧结;步骤E,将高温烧结后的物料粉碎处理,然后添加包覆剂进行包覆烧结;步骤F,将包覆烧结后的物料经过程分级,除磁、批混和包装等后处理工序制备成品。该发明与传统工艺相比制备方法简单,工艺更环保,所得锰酸锂产品容量高,寿命长,但该方法没能有效改进材料的高温循环性能和储存性能。
