Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of green energy storage, and in particular relates to a preparation method of liquid metal nanoparticles and a preparation method of a lithium ion battery. Background technique [0002] In 1991, under the impetus of Sony Corporation, lithium-ion batteries became the first commercialized lithium secondary batteries. Compared with traditional secondary batteries, lithium-ion batteries have lighter weight and higher energy storage density. This feature makes it gradually replace nickel metal hydride batteries in the consumer electronics market, and begins to replace nickel metal hydride and nickel chromium batteries in the power tool market. In recent years, it has become more popular in the field of electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles. However, lithium-ion batteries are also facing problems such as poor conductivity of electrode materials, low energy density, and poor high-rate performance. Contents of t...
