为更好地说明本申请,便于理解本申请的技术方案,下面对本申请进一步详细说明。但下述的实施例仅仅是本申请的简易例子,并不代表或限制本申请的权利保护范围,本申请保护范围以权利要求书为准。
以下为本申请典型但非限制性实施例:
本文中“去合金化”是指通过化学或是电化学腐蚀过程将合金中的一种或多种组元有选择性的去除的一种方法。去合金化过程中涉及旧晶格位的去除和新晶格位的形成,也涉及新晶体的形核和生长,其中,去合金化过程中纳米多孔结构的形成与合金/溶液界面上原子层次的重组密切相关,而重组过程是通过未溶解的金属原子和空位的表面扩散完成的,而且表面扩散的快慢对最终形成的纳米多孔金属中韧带/通道的尺寸有重要影响。
第一方面
一实施方式的负极材料,如图1所示,负极材料包括一次颗粒,一次颗粒包括骨 架,骨架包括位于一次颗粒的内部的主骨架11及自主骨架11延伸至一次颗粒表面的多个分枝12。
请进一步参阅图1,该实施方式的一次颗粒为大孔结构,一次颗粒形成有延伸至一次颗粒表面的孔道13。其中,根据国际纯粹与应用化学协会(IUPAC)的定义,孔径大于50nm的称为大孔。
本实施方式的负极材料包括一次颗粒,一次颗粒的内部的主骨架及自主骨架延伸至一次颗粒表面的多个分枝为一个整体,整个骨架结构增强材料的电子传到和离子扩散,可以有效释放锂化后的应力,避免应力在晶界处集中导致材料破裂和粉化。
该负极材料的孔道延伸至一次颗粒的表面的孔道结构具有如下优点:一、在提高储锂性能的同时能降低了锂电池的膨胀。不仅可以缓解嵌锂过程中的体积膨胀,还有利于为锂化提供内膨胀的空间,使电极材料锂化后向内膨胀而降低整个电极膜的厚度,大大提高了锂离子电池的安全性。二、提供了电解液流动的通道,有利于电解液的接触。孔道结构还可以带来更高的振实密度,能够增加电池的体积能量密度。
相较于纳米颗粒堆积而成的二次多孔结构,本实施方式所制备的多孔负极材料具有一体化结构更加稳定的优点,并可以兼具更小的比表面积和更高的孔隙率。本申请是一次完整颗粒,整个骨架相连,增强材料的电子传到和离子扩散,可以有效释放锂化后的应力,避免应力集中导致材料粉化,二次颗粒组装的多孔材料,由于颗粒之间存在明显的晶界,导致锂化应力集中,颗粒破碎,整个结构破坏,最终导致电化学性能恶化。
在一些实施方式中,负极材料为一次颗粒;
在一些实施方式中,主骨架为三维网状结构;
在一些实施方式中,单个分枝为单独的晶粒;分枝与主骨架之间没有明显的晶界,一次颗粒的表面分散晶粒;现有技术方案中多孔硅二次颗粒上的分枝主要由多个小晶粒组成,晶界较多,相较于这种结构,本实施方式中一次颗粒上的分枝为单独一个大晶粒,没有过多的晶界存在,锂化后应力可以得到较好的分散,避免应力集中导致材料的破坏;同时单独一个晶粒的晶面曲线相同,更有利于减小材料某一方向的相对体积膨胀,而多个小晶粒组成的结构体积膨胀相对较大,同时结构稳定性也相对较差,导致循环稳定性较差。
具体地,晶粒的尺寸为30nm-100nm;示例性地,晶粒的尺寸可以是30nm、45nm、50nm、60nm、75nm、100nm。
在一些实施方式中,分枝的横截面最大宽度为20nm-350nm,分枝的横截面最大长度为50nm-2500nm;优选地,分枝12的横截面最大宽度12W为20nm-250nm,分枝的横截面最大长度12L为100nm-1500nm;示例性地,分枝12的横截面的最大宽度12W具体可以是可以是20nm、40nm、80nm、100nm、120nm、150nm、180nm、200nm或250nm,分枝12的横截面的最大长度12L具体可以是可以是100nm、200nm、300nm、400nm、500nm、800nm、1000nm、1200nm或1500nm,在此不做限定。

本实施方式的负极材料包括一次颗粒,一次颗粒内部形成有通孔,一次颗粒的孔隙率不低于30%。本申请的一次颗粒具有较高的孔隙率,可以有效缓解硅负极300%以上的体积膨胀,结合大孔贯通结构结构优势,锂化后的孔结构也可以保持完好,现有技术的孔隙率较低以及存在较多的微孔和介孔,无法满足硅的巨大体积膨胀,锂化后孔洞被填充后,由于电化学烧结最终导致孔洞被填堵,无法继续保持多孔结构。
上述实施方式的负极材料可以为硅负极材料,锗负极材料、锡负极材料、硼负极材料、锑负极材料等负极材料;比较典型的例子如硅负极材料在一些实施方式中,一次颗粒选自硅、锗、锡、硼及锑中的至少一种;其骨架可以为硅骨架、锗骨架、锡骨架、硼骨架、锑骨架等;如负极材料选用硅负极材料,其硅负极材料为一次颗粒,一次颗粒包括硅骨架,包括位于所述一次颗粒的内部的主骨架及自主骨架延伸至所述一次颗粒表面的多个分枝。锗、硼、锡及锑的骨架结构与上述硅骨架结构相似。

在一些实施方式中,一次颗粒的孔隙率为30%~70%,例如30%、35%、40%、50%、55%、60%或70%等,优选为40%~60%。
在一些实施方式中,一次颗粒的粉体振实密度为0.2g/cm 3~0.8g/cm 3,例如0.2g/cm 3、0.3g/cm 3、0.5g/cm 3、0.6g/cm 3、0.7g/cm 3或0.8g/cm 3等。优选为0.4g/cm 3~0.7g/cm 3
在一些实施方式中,一次颗粒的粉体压实密度为1.2g/cm 3~1.8g/cm 3,例如1.2g/cm 3、1.3g/cm 3、1.4g/cm 3、1.5g/cm 3、1.6g/cm 3或1.8g/cm 3等,优选为1.4g/cm 3~1.7g/cm 3
在一些实施方式中,如图2a所示,负极材料包括一次颗粒10及位于一次颗粒10表面的包覆层20。
可以理解地,负极材料包括内核10及形成于内核表面的包覆层20,其中,内核10为一次颗粒。
可以理解地,该一次颗粒包括骨架,骨架包括位于一次颗粒的内部的主骨架11及自主骨架11延伸至一次颗粒表面的多个分枝12;该一次颗粒为大孔结构,一次颗粒形成有延伸至一次颗粒表面的孔道13;可以理解地,该一次颗粒内部形成有通孔,一次颗粒的孔隙率不低于30%。
通过在一次颗粒(内核)表面形成包覆层,能够进一步提高负极材料的结构稳定性和循环稳定性,同时进一步缓解负极材料的体积膨胀。
在本实施例中,一次颗粒的具体结构(骨架结构、孔结构)以及性能参数(孔隙率、中值粒径、比表面积、粉体振实密度、粉体压实密度等参数)如前面实施方式所述,在此不再重复阐述。

纳米颗粒层由纳米颗粒组成,纳米颗粒可以有效避免材料粉化;纳米颗粒层形成有微孔和/或介孔,可以有效缓解材料的体积膨胀,同时促进电解液浸润和接触面,加快锂离子传输,提升整个材料的倍率性能,同时保证负极材料内部的一次颗粒的结构稳定性。采用包覆层包覆后,具有更好的导电性和稳定性,可以有效避免碳填充材料内部孔隙,提高材料首效,使得负极材料能够表现出高容量、长循环寿命、高倍率性能以及低膨胀等特性。
在本实施例中,一次颗粒的具体结构(骨架结构、孔结构)以及性能参数(中值粒径、比表面积、粉体振实密度、粉体压实密度等参数)如第一方面所述,在此不再重复阐述。
如图4b所示,纳米颗粒层40包括多个纳米颗粒41,多个纳米颗粒41相互堆叠。纳米颗粒41的形状可以是球形、类球形、扁平状或其他任意形状,在此不做限定。纳米颗粒41之前形成有微孔42和/或介孔43,微孔的孔径小于2nm,介孔的孔径大于2nm且小于50nm,可以理解地,微孔与介孔的孔径小于一次颗粒孔道的孔径。
在一些实施方式中,纳米颗粒选自纳米硅颗粒、纳米锗颗粒、纳米锑颗粒、纳米锡颗粒、纳米硼颗粒中的至少一种。
在一些实施方式中,负极材料的孔隙率为30%~70%,具体可以是30%、40%、50%、60%或70%,在此不做限定,复合负极材料的孔隙率优选为40%~60%。

可以理解地,纳米颗粒41形成于一次颗粒10表面,并且与一次颗粒10紧密结合,形成纳米颗粒层40,纳米颗粒层40与一次颗粒10之间有明显的晶界,并不是范德华力结合,其结合力更高,一次颗粒10与纳米颗粒层40连接更稳定,整体结构也更稳定。
更具体地,孔道在所有孔结构中的体积占比为35%~90%,介孔在所有孔结构中 的体积占比为5%~45%,微孔在所有孔结构中的体积占比为5%~20%。
上述所有孔结构中的开孔体积占比为60%~95%,闭孔体积占比为5%~40%,其中,开孔按孔结构类型可以分为交联孔、通孔及盲孔,在所有孔结构的开孔中,交联孔占所有开孔的体积占比为79%~95%,通孔占所有开孔的体积占比为4%~20%,盲孔占所有开孔的体积占比为1%~10%。
需要说明的是,盲孔是连接一次颗粒表层和内层而不贯通一次颗粒的导通孔,交联孔由多个孔道交叉形成。可以理解地,占比较多的交联孔可以给电解液提供流通的通道,电解液可以沿交联孔在一次颗粒中流通,在提高硅储锂性能的同时降低锂电池的膨胀,通孔也可以给电解液提供流体的流道,但是会降低电解液流通速率,所以通孔的体积占比应少于交联孔的体积占比。进一步地,盲孔不利于电解液流通,流入盲孔内的电解液只能原路径流出,在制备过程中,应尽量降低盲孔的生成。
在一些实施方式中,纳米颗粒41的中值粒径为20nm~200nm;纳米颗粒41的中值粒径具体可以是20nm、40nm、50nm、60nm、80nm、100nm、150nm或200nm,当然纳米颗粒41的中值粒径也可以根据实际情况进行设置,在此不做限定。小粒径的纳米颗粒41包裹在一次颗粒的表面,可以避免碳层填充、堵塞孔道,增加电解液流动的通道,从而提高硅储锂性能的同时降低锂电池的膨胀。
在一些实施方式中,纳米颗粒层40的厚度为20nm~2000nm,具体可以是20nm、50nm、100nm、200nm、300nm、500nm、800nm、1000nm或2000nm等,当然纳米颗粒层40的厚度也可以根据实际情况进行设置,在此不做限定。
可以理解地,适宜厚度的纳米颗粒层40可以有效避免材料粉化,可以缓解材料的体积膨胀,保证材料内部的一次颗粒的结构稳定性。
在一些实施方式中,负极材料的中值粒径为0.1μm~15μm,可选地,具体可以是0.1μm、0.5μm、1μm、2μm、3μm、4μm、5μm、6μm、7μm、8μm、9μm、10μm或15μm等,在此不做限定。复合负极材料的中值粒径优选为0.5μm~10μm,更优选为1μm~8μm。
在一些实施方式中,负极材料的比表面积比为1m 2/g~100m 2/g。可选地,复合负极材料的比表面积可以是1m 2/g、5m 2/g、10m 2/g、15m 2/g、20m 2/g、25m 2/g、30m 2/g、35m 2/g、40m 2/g、45m 2/g、50m 2/g、60m 2/g、80m 2/g或100m 2/g等,在此不做限定;复合负极材料的比表面积优选为10m 2/g~50m 2/g。可以理解地,过大的比表面积容易导致SEI膜形成,消耗不可逆锂盐过多,降低电池的首次效率低,综合考虑制备工艺的成本,将比表面积控制在10m 2/g~50m 2/g。
该实施方式的负极材料中的包覆层为碳层,碳层厚度为5nm~100nm,具体可以是5nm、10nm、20nm、30nm、40nm、50nm、60nm、70nm、80nm或100nm等,碳层过厚,锂离子传输效率降低,不利于材料大倍率充放电,降低负极材料的综合性能,碳层过薄,不利于增加负极材料的导电性且对材料的体积膨胀抑制性能较弱,导致长循环性能价差。
在一些实施方式中,负极材料中的碳的质量百分比含量为5%~50%,具体可以是5%、8%、10%、15%、20%、25%、30%、40%或50%,在此不做限定。可选地,碳的质量百分比含量为10%~30%。

本申请实施例提供的负极材料制备方法利用N-M材料在高温下与过渡金属卤化物发生反应,之后去除N-M材料中的M得到多孔N负极材料。由于反应生成的金属的卤化物,以采用硅镁合金或硅铝合金作为原料举例,生成的金属卤化物为镁或铝的金属卤化物在反应温度下为熔融态,熔融态的卤化物具有连续性,且为相连纳米硅的形成提供了相连的液态模板,除去金属卤化物后得多孔硅,结构上硅纳米单元沿着相连的液态模板生长形成相连硅骨架,除去模板后,使形成的硅骨架在三维方向上具有连续贯通的孔道结构。本申请是一次完整颗粒,整个骨架相连,增强材料的电子传到和离子扩散,可以有效释放锂化后的应力,避免应力集中导致材料粉化,现有技术普遍为二次颗粒,即一次纳米颗粒组装或者堆垛成一个二次大颗粒的多孔硅,如石榴状硅负极,树莓状以及西瓜状硅负极,由于这些一次颗粒之间存在明显的晶界,导致锂化后应力集中,结构不稳,最终导致电化学性能恶化。
本申请实施例提供的负极材料的制备方法,具有简单易行、安全且绿色环保的突出优点,可大规模生产。只需N-M材料(如硅合金)在高温下与过渡金属卤化物发生反应后去除硅合金中的金属成分便可以得到大量的多孔硅,产率高,以过渡金属卤化物的化学式为ABx(x=2或3,所述A包括Sn、Cu、Fe、Zn、Co及Ni中的至少一种,所述B包括Cl、F及Br中的至少一种),硅合金的化学式为MzSi(Z=1~3,M包括Mg和Al)为例,发生的反应方程式为ABx+MzSi=Si+A+MzBx。
此外,该方法原料来源广、成本低,副产物可回收重复使用,可采用廉价的商业硅作为原料制备多孔硅负极材料,得到的N负极材料(Ge、B、Sn及Sb)为多孔结构且形貌和孔结构易调控。由于该反应处于液态环境中,保证了反应的充分进行,大大提高产率和产品纯度。
通过对整体工艺流程、以及各个反应步骤的参数条件(如反应物的种类及配比、反应温度及时间等)进行改进,可控制产物的形貌进而实现对性能的调控。例如,可以控制合金成分来改变孔的大小以及孔隙率(一般硅合金中硅含量越高,孔径越小);可以控制反应时间与反应温度来改变孔的深度(一般反应时间越长、反应温度越高,孔的深度越深,当然,反应温度最高不能超过950℃,如因为反应温度过高可能导致生成的硅和过渡金属反应形成硅化物,如硅化铜或硅化镍,劣化产物性能)。
在具体的示例中,如图6所示,以硅负极材料为例,硅负极材料的制备方法,包括以下步骤:1)制备Si-M合金;2)将Si-M合金与过渡金属卤化物混合,得到 混合物,其中,所述Si-M合金中的M包括Mg、Al、Li和Ca中的至少一种;3)将所述混合物置于保护性气氛中进行置换反应,得到反应产物,所述反应产物包括M的卤化物、硅和过渡金属;4)将所述M的卤化物和过渡金属去除,得到硅负极材料。

表中“-”表示无。
图7c为本实施例中多孔硅负极材料的首次充放电曲线,充放电电流为0.05C,采用半电池测试;图7d为本实施例的多孔硅负极材料循环性能曲线,充放电电流为0.2C。图7c和图7d中可以看出材料具有较高的首次充放电效率并且具有优异的循环性能。实施例7-实施例9调变了反应物摩尔比,反应温度和时间,依然可以得到多孔硅,但是性能相对于实施例1有一定的下降。
根据表1至表2的测试数据可知,通过实施例7与实施例1对比,硅粉与镁粉的摩尔比增大,孔隙率更多,振实密度降低,首效降低,能量密度降低。
实施例8与实施例1对比,温度过低,反应不充分,结构不均匀,内外孔结构不一致,结构不稳定,循环性能降低。
实施例9与实施例1对比,温度过高,晶粒尺寸变大,硅骨架变粗,易粉化,首效降低,循环性能降低。
通过实施例1与对比例1对比,实施例1中得到的多孔硅比表面积相对对比例1的较小,对比例1中采用氯化锌,反应温度为300℃,该温度下产生的氯化镁为固态颗粒状,是固态模板,导致最终的多孔硅是由纳米硅颗粒堆积而成,最终导致比表面积较大,首效降低;而实施例1反应温度为750℃,生成的氯化镁为连续液态状,是相连的液态模板,导致多孔硅是骨架结构,大大降低材料的比表面积,提高首效。
通过实施例1与对比例2对比,不加入氯化亚锡无法制备出多孔硅。
实施例11-14通过与实施例1相似方法,改变原料分别制备出具有骨架结构的多孔锗、多孔硼、多孔锡以及多孔碲。

本申请的复合负极材料具有低膨胀、循环稳定佳优点。
由上表3~4可知,实施例27与实施例26的主要区别在于,硅镁合金与六氯苯的混合比例较低,导致硅材料表面的石墨烯层厚度大幅下降,不利于增加负极材料的导电性且对材料的体积膨胀抑制性能较弱,导致长循环性能差。
实施例28与实施例15的主要区别在于,没有加入裂解抑制剂(碳酰胺、氰酸钾和氰酸钠),氯代环己烷在反应过程中大量分解,难以在硅材料表面沉积形成石墨烯层,导致电池的充放电比容量、首次库伦效率、圈后容量保持率等各项性能有所下降。对比例3是碳包覆的多孔硅负极材料,该材质制成的电池的0.2C循环100圈后容量及容量保持率均有所下降,并且对比例3的电极膜膨胀率也高于实施例15。
综上所述,本申请提供的硅碳负极材料的制备方法,简单易操作,制备过程安全、高效;制造成本有效降低,适于量化生产;制得的产物用作电池极片使用,具有较好的充放电循环性能。

以下为负极材料的制备方法具体的描述。
步骤S31、制备N-M合金;
在一些实施方式中,N-M合金中的N包括Si、Ge、Sn、B及Sb中的至少一种;N-M合金中的M包括Mg、Al、Zn和Ca中的至少一种。
步骤S31与步骤S21大致相同,在此不做详细描述。
当然,N-M合金还可以通过其他制备方法制备,具体可以是:高能球磨、真空冶炼以及热压烧结等。可以理解,N-M合金可以通过市售获得,此时步骤S31可以省略。
在一些实施例中,所述N-M合金中的N的质量百分比含量为15%~60%,可选地,N的质量百分比含量可以是15%、20%、30%、40%、50%或60%,在此不做限定。可以理解地,可以通过控制N-M合金的成分来改变N材料的三维孔道的孔的大小以及孔隙率,一般N-M合金中N含量越高,孔径越小。可以控制加热反应时间与反应温度来改变孔的深度,一般反应时间越长、反应温度越高,孔的深度越深。
S32、将N-M合金和含碳铵盐混合,得到混合物;
需要说明的是,含碳铵盐指含有碳与铵根离子的盐。
在一些实施方式中,N-M合金与含碳铵盐混合的摩尔比为1:(0.1-10),具体可以是1:0.1、1:0.5、1:1、1:2、1:4、1:5、1:7或1:10,在此不做限定。
具体地,含碳铵盐包括碳酸铵、碳酸氢铵及氨基甲酸铵中的至少一种;碳酸铵、碳酸氢铵及氨基甲酸铵对热不稳定,容易分解成为氨和二氧化碳,因此在反应过程中,混合物中还加入铵盐抑制剂,以抑制铵盐高温分解。
在一些实施方式中,N-M合金和铵盐分解抑制剂的摩尔比为1:(0.2-10),具体可以是可以是1:0.2、1:0.5、1:1、1:2、1:4、1:5、1:7或1:10,在此不做限定。
在一些实施方式中,铵盐分解抑制剂包括碳酸盐和/或碳酸氢盐。
其中,碳酸盐的化学式为M yCO 3,碳酸氢盐的化学式为M(HCO 3) y,M包括Na、K、Li、Mg、Ca、Zn、及Ba中的至少一种,y=1或2。
可以理解地,碳酸氢盐在高温下不稳定,容易分解成为碳酸盐、二氧化碳和水,分解出来的二氧化碳气体、无机盐、水对环境没有危害,吸收部分反应能量,抑制铵盐在高温下发生分解反应。
在一些实施方式中,为了提高反应充分度,还加入熔盐介质,可选地,熔盐介质 包括卤化铵盐、卤化盐中的至少一种。
所述N-M合金和卤化铵盐的摩尔比为1:(0.1-10),具体可以是1:0.1、1:0.5、1:1、1:2、1:4、1:5、1:7或1:10,在此不做限定。所述卤化铵盐的化学式为NH 4Y,其中,Y包括Cl、Br、F和I中的至少一种。
在反应中加入铵盐分解抑制剂和适量的熔盐介质(卤化铵盐),一方面可以通过铵盐分解抑制剂来抑制铵盐的分解,使其保持高温液态,有利于铵盐由外向里慢慢与合金反应达到去合金化的目的同时,逐渐流入N材料的孔道结构之中,作为相连骨架的液态模板,便于碳逐渐在硅材料的孔道结构中均匀沉积,加强整个复合结构的导电性和结构稳定性;另一方面熔盐可增加铵盐在其中的溶解度,促进反应充分进行,保证合金粉末与铵盐反应时的高温液态环境以及反应温度的均匀性,避免局部温度过高导致多孔结构破坏,提高产率和纯度。
加入对应的卤化铵物作为熔盐介质后,可进一步保证合金粉末与铵盐反应时的高温液态环境以及反应温度的均匀性,避免局部温度过高导致多孔结构破坏,所制得的负极材料,稳定性优异,碳复合结构均匀,表现优异的电化学性能。
同样地,N-M合金与卤化物的摩尔比为1:(0.1-10),具体可以是1:0.1、1:0.5、1:1、1:2、1:4、1:5、1:7或1:10,在此不做限定。其中,卤化物化学式为MYa,其中a=1,M包括Na、K、Li、Mg、Ca、Zn及Ba中的至少一种,Y包括Cl、Br、F和I中的至少一种。
S33、将混合物在保护性气氛下进行置换反应,得到反应产物,反应产物包括M的氮化物、M的氧化物。
该反应可以称为去合金化反应。
其中,置换反应的反应产物包括M的氮化物、M的氧化物、碳及N单质。示例性地,N-M合金为硅镁合金,铵盐为碳酸铵,去合金化的化学反应式为:5Mg 2Si+2(NH 4) 2CO 3→5Si+2C+4MgO+2Mg 3N 2+2H 2O+6H 2,发生反应后去除反应产物中的金属氧化物(MgO)及氮化物(Mg 3N 2),即可得到复合负极材料。
可以理解地,选择铵盐参与去合金过程中,反应过程中铵盐处于熔融态,为相连N骨架的形成提供了相连的液态模板,保证了N骨架的孔道结构的连续性;此外铵盐作为碳源,反应后形成的碳层也是连续的填充在孔道结构中,形成三维的导电碳网络结构。由于高温下反应较为温和,铵盐中的碳氧键打断后可进行有序重组,形成碳层,提高导电性,也更有利于锂离子进出,提高材料的倍率性。
在具体实施例中,去合金化热处理在真空条件下进行,真空度为1Pa~20KPa。可以理解地,本申请实施例在高温真空环境下去合金化热处理,提高反应速率,反应更安全。

可以理解地,在上述适宜的热处理的温度、时间、升温速率范围内,有助于提高去合金效率,有助于N-M合金在去合金过程中形成N骨架结构。为了提高反应的安全性,在保护性气体的保护下进行去合金化热处理,所述保护性气体包括氮气、氦气、氖气、氩气、疝气中的至少一种。保护性气体的流量可以控制1L/min~10L/min,以提高反应的安全性。
S34、去除M的氧化物、M的氮化物,得到复合负极材料。
在一些实施方式中,去除方法包括酸洗,将反应产物进行酸洗,可以去除反应产物中的M的氧化物及氮化物。

图17c中可以看出实施例39的材料具有较高具有优异的循环性能,在0.5C大电流下循环1000周还有997mAh/g的容量。由上表6及7可知,实施例42与实施例39的主要区别在氯化铵浓度更高,浸泡时长更久,使得碳包覆硅镁合金表面生成的硅酸粒子更多,从而使得最终产物的纳米硅颗粒层厚度更大,纳米硅颗粒层的介孔及微孔减少,电解液不容易流入内层的一次颗粒中,从而使得电池在充放电过程中,极片膨胀率提高,循环稳定性变差。
对比例7的负极材料在制备过程中相比于实施例39,没有进行氯化铵溶液浸泡处理,硅镁合金表面不会生成硅酸粒子,进而使得最终产物仅包括碳层和一次颗粒, 碳层的碳颗粒容易堵塞一次颗粒的孔道结构,从而使得电池在充放电过程中,极片膨胀率提高,循环稳定性变差。
对比例8与实施例43的主要区别在氯化铵浓度更高,浸泡温度更高,时长更久,使得碳包覆硅镁合金表面生成的硅酸粒子更多,从而使得最终产物的纳米硅颗粒层厚度更大,纳米硅颗粒层的介孔及微孔减少,电解液不容易流入内层的一次颗粒中,从而使得电池在充放电过程中,极片膨胀率提高,循环稳定性变差。
对比例9是碳包覆的多孔硅负极材料,该材质制成的电池的0.2C循环100圈后容量及容量保持率均有所下降,并且对比例9的电极膜膨胀率也高于实施例39。
根据上述实施例及对比例可见,本申请负极材料的一次颗粒表面的纳米颗粒层具有优异的介孔和微孔,既可以有效避免材料粉化,锂化后形成刚性硅锂合金层,进一步抑制一次颗粒的体积膨胀,保证多孔硅的结构稳定性。在锂化过程中,硅嵌锂膨胀填充介孔孔隙,也可进一步避免电解液溶剂分子与一次颗粒接触形成副反应,生成更多SEI,较低首效。并且,一次颗粒上的孔道结构与纳米颗粒层的介孔、微孔在结构上不同,可以进一步缓解多孔硅体积膨胀产生的应力,降低电极膜膨胀,提高安全性;避免材料结构破坏,保证材料的结构稳定性,带来长循环寿命。碳层包裹硅材料后,具有更好的导电性和稳定性,采用先包覆碳,后反应制备多孔的顺序,可以有效避免碳填充或封闭孔结构,降低材料首效,甚至引发副反应。因此复合负极材料有利于满足电池的长循环寿命、高容量和低膨胀的要求,可广泛应用于锂离子电池负极材料领域。
综上,本申请提供的负极材料的制备方法,简单易操作,制备过程安全、高效;制造成本有效降低,适于量化生产;制得的产物用作电池极片使用,具有较好的充放电循环性能。
