- the positive electrode active material and the conductive agent are first stirred to obtain a dry mixture, and the first stirring makes the two mechanically riveted to form a tight entanglement; then the binder and the solvent are mixed and stirred for the second time to prepare the glue solution, which can achieve effective dispersion of the binder in the solvent and avoid agglomeration and flocculation caused by direct mixing and stirring of the binder with other materials; then the dry mixture formed by the positive electrode active material and the conductive agent is mixed with the glue solution for the third stirring to prepare the primary slurry, and the third stirring can effectively disperse the positive electrode active material and the conductive agent in the glue solution, and the binder in the glue solution can improve the stability of the slurry through electrostatic action and steric hindrance, and reduce the agglomeration and sedimentation of the positive electrode active material and the conductive agent; finally, the binder and the solvent are mixed with the primary slurry for the fourth stirring to obtain the positive electrode slurry, and the binder added again
- the mass ratio of the binder used in the second stirring is 50% to 70%, and the mass ratio of the binder used in the fourth stirring is 30% to 50%. If the mass of the binder added in the second stirring or the fourth stirring is too much or too little, it is impossible to effectively reduce the viscosity of the slurry after standing for 24 hours, and the purpose of slowing down the gelation of the slurry cannot be achieved.
- the preparation method of the positive electrode slurry in the prior art has poor compatibility and cannot adapt to the difference in the weight average molecular weight of the binder in the slurry. Therefore, a very high precision requirement is put forward for the material.
- the present application reduces the shipping viscosity and the viscosity of the positive electrode slurry after standing for 24 hours by step-by-step slurry mixing, alleviates the gelation phenomenon of the positive electrode slurry, and makes the slurry with a high weight average molecular weight binder still have a low shipping viscosity and viscosity and anti-coagulation after standing for 24 hours, thereby improving the universality of the preparation method.
- the preparation method of the present application is not only applicable to binders with low weight average molecular weight, but also to binders with high weight average molecular weight, which can effectively alleviate the gelation phenomenon of different slurries, help to improve production efficiency, and broaden the process window of slurry coating.
- process window refers to the process range that can ensure product quality, including but not limited to temperature range, pressure range, storage time length, etc. It can be understood that the wider the process window, the lower the requirement for process accuracy.
