The invention discloses a
sodium alginate bonding agent used in a
lithium battery
silicon carbon
anode, particularly discloses a method for preparing a
silicon carbon
anode material by the bonding agent. The method comprises the steps that: step one, micron-grade silica
powder is added into a ball milling tank, and a
solvent is added to perform ball milling; step two,
natural graphite is added into the industrial
silicon powder subjected to the ball milling in the step one to continuously perform the ball milling; step three, substances subjected to the ball milling in the step two are dried, and the dried substances are finely ground; step four, 70-80 parts by weight of the silicon carbon
composite material, 5-20 parts by weight of
sodium alginate and 5-20 parts by weight of
acetylene black are weighed, defined amount of deionized water is added, and the materials are uniformly stirred, then coated on a
copper foil and dried to obtain the silicon carbon
anode material. The novel bonding agent adopted by the invention can effectively improve the
cycling performance of the silicon carbon anode material and prolong the
cycling service life of the anode material.
