The invention discloses a negative
electrode of a foamed
copper oxide /
copper lithium ion battery and a preparation process thereof, comprising the following steps: carrying out
pickling treatment on the surface of the foamed
copper, washing and
drying it with water, and compacting it; The surface is oxidized in an
air atmosphere heat treatment furnace to obtain a layer of
copper oxide (CuO, Cu2O or a mixture of the two) on the surface; then the
slurry obtained by mixing carbon-based conductive agent, binder and
solvent Coating on the surface of the foamed
copper oxide / copper
composite material,
drying and pressing. The three-dimensional structure
copper oxide / copper material coated with a conductive agent and a binder on the surface can be directly used as a negative
electrode of a
lithium-
ion battery, without the need for mixing active materials with a binder and a conductive agent in the traditional preparation of a negative
electrode of a
lithium-
ion battery The process of making a
slurry and
coating it on a
current collector. The coated conductive agent and binder can increase the electrical contact of the copper
oxide active material during charging and discharging, and increase the
electronic conductivity and the
utilization rate of the active material. The negative electrode of the
lithium ion battery of the invention has high specific capacity, good cycle performance, and the preparation method of the electrode is simple and easy to control, and is very suitable for the industrial application of the
lithium ion battery.
