Embodiment 1

[0053] (1) Remove impurities and disperse the CNTs: the specifications of the selected CNTs are: the outer diameter is 20nm, and the length is 3μm;

[0054] Add the HCl solution that the mass concentration is 18.25% in the container that contains CNTs, obtain the pretreatment liquid that CNTs content is 4g / L;

[0055] The above pretreatment solution was ultrasonically oscillated while mechanically stirring for 3 hours, then magnetically stirred for 24 hours, then the CNTs were separated from the pretreatment solution, and finally the CNTs were dried for 24 hours;

[0056] (2) Using copper foil as the substrate (current collector), the CNTs-Cu coating is plated by DC electroplating, and its thickness is 4 μm;

[0057] The formulation and conditions of electroplating CNTs-Cu composite coating are as follows:

[0078] The remaining steps are the same as in embodiment (1). A 2 μm thick Sn-Sb alloy coating was electroplated on the copper foil coated with CNTs-Cu by co-deposition, and finally heat-treated at 200°C for 24 hours to obtain a CNTs-Sn-Sb alloy negative electrode. Using the conventional lithium-ion battery test method, the first discharge mass specific capacity of the negative electrode effective material is 603mAh / g, and after 100 charging cycles, the specific capacity is still 585mAh / g, the specific capacity decay is only 2.5%, and the Coulombic efficiency exceeds 95%. .

Embodiment 3

[0080] The remaining steps are the same as in embodiment (1). A 2 μm thick tin-cobalt alloy coating was electroplated on the copper foil coated with CNTs-Cu by co-deposition, and finally heat-treated at 200°C for 18 hours to obtain a CNTs-Sn-Co alloy negative electrode. Using the conventional lithium-ion battery test method, the first discharge mass specific capacity of the negative electrode effective material is 596mAh / g. After 100 charging cycles, the specific capacity is still 572mAh / g. The specific capacity decay is only 4%, and the Coulombic efficiency exceeds 92%. .

Abstract

The invention discloses a carbon nano tube-Sn-M alloy cathode material and a preparation method of the carbon nano tube-Sn-M alloy cathode material. According to the invention, carbon nano tubes (CNTs) are composited into an electrode; a CNTs-Cu connection layer is added between the active material and a current collector; and the advantages of multicomponent alloy are combined, so that the circulation property of the alloy cathode is greatly improved. According to the invention, copper foil is used as a current collector (electroplate substrate) to composite and electroplate a CNTs-Cu composite coating with the thickness of 1-5 micro and a thin tin (or tin alloy) film with a thickness of 1-4 micro in sequence; and finally the CNTs-Sn-M alloy cathode material is obtained by heat treatment. The lithium ion battery alloy cathode prepared by adopting the method has a specific discharge capacity of 500-800 mAh / g for the first time, and the specific capacity is only decayed by 2-5 percent after 100 times of circulation. According to the invention, the process is simple, the performance of the prepared alloy cathode is good, and the alloy cathode is suitable for performing large-scale industrialized production.
