Problems solved by technology

Its disadvantages are also obvious: the addition of organic compounds increases the cost; during the sintering process, gelation into powder is a process of violent volume expansion, so the utilization rate of the reaction furnace is low; organic matter produces a large amount of CO 2 Gas; the process is complicated, and it is difficult to realize large-scale industrial production to meet the large demand in the energy field

Abstract

The invention discloses an electrode material of composite lithium titanate and its preparation method, which is secondary particles with spherical or similar spherical shape and porous nanometer channels, which is made from lithium titanate particles, nano-carbon coated materials and doped modifier. The preparation method includes: milling the inorganic lithium salt, titanium dioxide, nano-carbon coated material or doped modifier, scattering them into the organic solvent for further drying, processing heat treatment, and cooling. Comparing with the existing technologies, this electrode material has the high-rate performance, highly reversible electrochemical capacity, and smaller surface area to enhance its first Coulomb efficiency and cycle stability, applying to rechargeable and once-use lithium-ion battery.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a battery electrode material and a preparation method thereof, in particular to a composite lithium titanate material for lithium batteries and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] In recent years, spinel lithium titanate Li 4 Ti 5 o 12 As an electrode material for a new type of energy storage battery, attention has been paid more and more attention. This is because the crystal structure of spinel-type lithium titanate can maintain a high degree of stability during the lithium ion intercalation-deintercalation process. Both before and after lithium ion intercalation are spinel. structure, and the lattice constant changes very little, and the volume change is very small, less than 1%, so Li 4 Ti 5 o 12 Known as "zero strain" electrode material. This can avoid the structural damage caused by the back and forth expansion and contraction of the electrode material during the charge-discharge cycle, there...
