Problems solved by technology

[0003] At present, the nickel-cobalt-manganese ternary cathode material on the market is a widely used cathode material for lithium-ion batteries. An effective way to increase the capacity of lithium-ion batteries is to increase the operating voltage of lithium-ion batteries. Generally, the operating voltage of lithium-ion batteries is increased by 0.1 V can increase the capacity of the battery by 5% to 15%. However, after the conventional nickel-cobalt-manganese positive electrode material is used at a voltage exceeding 4.2V, the surface of the positive electrode material will be excessively desorbed. + , causing damage to the surface structure, and at the same time oxidized by the electrolyte, a thick "protective" SEI film is formed on the surface of the positive and negative electrodes to prevent Li + The deintercalation between the positive and negative electrodes macroscopically causes the lithium-ion battery to show a phenomenon of sharp attenuation of cycle performance
[0004] In the prior art, the high-voltage performance of lithium-ion batteries is usually improved from two aspects: the modified electrolyte formula and the surface modification of the positive electrode material. Coating the positive electrode material is a commonly used method at present, but nickel-cobalt-manganese positive electrode materials, especially high-nickel positive electrodes After the material is washed and coated, the cycle will show a sharp attenuation phenomenon
