技术领域
本发明涉及锂离子电池领域,具体涉及一种多元正极材料及其制备方法与应用。
背景技术
由于近年来动力市场对锂离子电池能量密度和循环寿命要求的不断提高,以及正极材料对锂离子电池能量密度、循环寿命的关键作用,多元正极材料作为研究热点持续受到研究者及市场的关注。
提升锂离子电池正极的能量密度主要通过提高活性物质的克容量来实现,提高活性物质的克容量一般又可以通过提高充放电电压窗口来实现。但提高充放电电压对正极材料的结构稳定性和表界面反应活性的控制都提出了更为苛刻的要求,若正极材料不能满足需求,盲目提高电压窗口,可能会导致电池循环性能严重衰减、安全性降低等问题。主要原因在于:①若材料的结构稳定性不足,则在充电电压较高时,锂离子从正极材料层状结构中脱出较多,导致层状结构部分坍塌,放电过程中锂离子无法返回,容量大幅衰减;②若材料表界面反应活性较高,在高电压下易与电解液发生一系列副反应,导致产气严重,活性物质与电解液接触不充分,容量骤降;同时产气还造成了严重的安全隐患。
通过对正极材料进行特定元素及化合物的掺杂、包覆可大幅改善材料的结构稳定性,降低材料表界面与电解液的反应活性;即使在锂离子脱嵌程度相对较高的条件下也能够维持材料层状结构及表界面的稳定。然而,目前行业内掺杂、包覆添加剂多以添加剂元素的氧化物、氢氧化物或者含氧酸盐等含氧化合物的形式引入,最终以氧化物或与氧化锂形成复合氧化物的形式存在。由于添加剂化合物本身含有氧元素,所以添加剂元素难以重新与正极材料结构、表面中的氧结合,最终难以与正极材料结构、表面之间形成稳定、有效的键合,导致对正极材料循环性能、高电压特性等的改善作用有限,不能充分发挥出添加剂元素的显著作用。
发明内容

本发明第一方面提供一种多元正极材料,其特征在于,所述多元正极材料通过XRD获得的(006)晶面的峰强度I (006)与(012)晶面的峰强度I (012)之比I (006)/I (012)≥0.8;
所述多元正极材料通过XRD获得的(006)晶面的峰面积A (006)与(012)晶面的峰面积A (012)之比A (006)/A (012)≥0.5。
发明人研究发现,常规的多元正极材料中的骨架过渡金属元素M’(Ni、Co、Mn等)与氧元素具有较强共价性,这会促进氧的2p能带产生电子空穴,并导致多元正极材料在高脱锂态下析出氧气,导致多元正极材料难以在高电压下应用。
而发明人研究发现,控制多元正极材料(003)晶面生长速率,和/或控制(012)晶面生长速率,保持(003)晶面生长速率明显高于(012)晶面生长速率,使其具有(003)晶面优先生长的特定结构,而晶体相间(003)晶面衍射峰对应(006)晶面峰,因此多元正极材料具体表现为通过XRD获得的(006)晶面的峰强度I (006)与(012)晶面的峰强度I (012)之比I (006)/I (012)≥0.8,(006)晶面的峰面积A (006)与(012)晶面的峰面积A (012)之比A (006)/A (012)≥0.5。由此可提高正极材料的结构稳定性,显著改善高脱锂状态下的析氧问题,并降低高电压条件下正极材料与电解液之间副反应发生的程度,提高锂离子电池的电化学性能。
进一步地,I (006)/I (012)≥1;A (006)/A (012)≥0.8。
