Problems solved by technology

The lithium battery of this system has the following disadvantages: 1. The potential of the carbon negative electrode is very close to that of lithium. When the battery is overcharged, metal lithium may precipitate on the surface of the carbon electrode, forming lithium dendrites and causing safety problems; 2. Release energy The speed is not fast enough, it is not suitable for the requirement of instantaneous high current
[0004] But with lithium titanate Li 4 Ti 5 o 12 There are also two deficiencies in making lithium battery negative electrode materials: 1. High lithium intercalation potential ((1.55V vs. Li / Li + ) brings the low voltage of the lithium battery itself; 2. Poor conductivity (the inherent conductivity is 10 -9 S / cm), large current discharge is easy to produce large polarization
The disadvantages are: 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 during the sintering process 2 Gas; complex process, difficult to achieve large-scale industrial production
This patent is only a carbon-coating or doping modification on the lithium titanate material, but the tap density of the material is "0.7-1.5g / cm 3 "The fluctuation range is large, which will bring hidden dangers that are difficult to control in material processing for battery manufacturers.
