Performances of lithium-ion batteries are closely related to performances of selected electrode materials of the lithium-ion batteries. Traditional positive electrode material lithium cobaltate has a wide discharging window and good cycle character, but the high cobalt content in the cathode material lithium cobaltate will pollute the environment, and it is difficult for the positive electrode material lithium cobaltate to meet the requirements of high capacity, high energy density and safety performance. In recent years, ternary positive electrode materials have integrated the comprehensive characteristics of lithium cobalt oxide, lithium nickel oxide and lithium manganese oxide battery positive electrode materials, reduced the problem of environmental pollution caused by high cobalt content, and realized the complementarity of the structures and properties of the three materials, and have become one of the most potential positive electrode materials with the characteristics of high capacity greater than 150 mAh/g, good cycle performance, simple synthesis process and environmental friendliness.
However, when the ternary positive electrode material is charged and discharged at high voltage and high temperature, the ternary positive electrode material particles are easily broken due to the large amount of lithium ions intercalated and intercalated, intense reaction and strong anisotropic stress, so as to lead to more side reactions, and finally affect the cycle performance and safety performance of the battery.

The present application provides a high-voltage ternary positive electrode material. The high-voltage ternary positive electrode material above comprises ternary positive electrode active material particles and a flexible coating body, and the flexible coating body is coated on surfaces of the ternary positive electrode active material particles. The flexible coating body comprises a mixture of polyaniline and a polyurethane elastomer.
According to the high-voltage ternary positive electrode material, the flexible coating body is the mixture of the polyaniline and the polyurethane elastomer and coated on the outer surfaces of the ternary positive electrode active material particles, so that the high-voltage ternary positive electrode material becomes a plurality of ternary positive electrode active material particles the surfaces of which are coated with the mixture of the polyaniline and the polyurethane elastomer. Because the flexible coating body containing the mixture of the polyaniline and the polyurethane elastomer has both flexibility and conductivity, the flexible coating body can adapt to interface changes of the ternary positive electrode active material particles, so as to maintain interface stability and dynamic integrity of the ternary positive electrode active material particles during the charging and discharging process of the battery containing the high-voltage ternary positive electrode material (i.e., during a lithium deintercalation process). Meanwhile, the flexible coating body can provide a uniform lithium ion transmission interface for lithium ion deintercalation, thereby reducing side reactions caused by easy breakage of the ternary positive electrode active material particles and addressing the problem of finally affecting the cycle performance and safety performance of the battery, and thereby improving the cycle performance and safety performance of the battery.
In one embodiment, a mass ratio of the flexible coating body to the ternary positive electrode active material particles is (2 to 8): 100, which thereby ensures the sufficient coating of the ternary positive electrode active material particles and further realizes the improvement of the cycle performance and the safety performance.
In one embodiment, the flexible coating body comprises a plurality of flexible coating monomers, each flexible coating monomer comprises polyurethane elastomer particles and polyaniline film, the polyaniline film is coated on surfaces of the polyurethane elastomer particles, and the polyurethane elastomer particles of the plurality of flexible coating monomers are uniformly stacked and coated on the surfaces of the ternary positive electrode active material particles, thus ensuring the flexibility and conductivity of the flexible coating body, and further improving the cycle performance and the safety performance of the battery.
In one embodiment, the flexible coating body comprises a plurality of flexible coating monomers, each flexible coating monomer comprises polyurethane elastomer particles and modified polyaniline film doped with phosphotungstic acid, the modified polyaniline film doped with phosphotungstic acid is coated on surfaces of the polyurethane elastomer particles, and the polyurethane elastomer particles of the plurality of flexible coating monomers are uniformly stacked and coated on the surfaces of the ternary positive electrode active material particles.
In one embodiment, the polyaniline is modified polyaniline doped with phosphotungstic acid. It may be understood that the phosphotungstic acid is a polynuclear complex, which not only has the characteristics of complex and metal oxide, but also has unique redox and strong acidity, can provide proton and polyaniline to form doped polymer, that is, the modified polyaniline doped with phosphotungstic acid, and the phosphotungstic acid embedded in a polyaniline matrix still maintains the structural characteristics thereof. Polyaniline can be polymerized on the surface of the polyurethane elastomer by in-situ oxidation polymerization. In this process, the doping of the polyaniline by the phosphotungstic acid is realized, which not only keeps the structure of the polyaniline, but also keeps the structure of the phosphotungstic acid, and the conductivity of the polyaniline doped with the phosphotungstic acid is obviously improved. At the same time, acidity and alkalinity of the phosphotungstic acid are effectively adjusted due to protonation, which reduces acid-base catalytic activity of the phosphotungstic acid and reduces influences of the phosphotungstic acid on mechanical properties of the high-voltage ternary positive electrode material.

In order to better understand the preparation method of the high-voltage ternary positive electrode material of the present application, the preparation method of the high-voltage ternary positive electrode material of the present application will be further described in detail below.
An embodiment of the preparation method of the high-voltage ternary positive electrode material comprises some or all of the following steps.
At S100, a flexible coating is acquired. It may be understood that the flexible coating has good flexibility and conductivity, and acquiring the flexible coating to coat the ternary positive electrode active material enables the flexible coating to adapt to interface changes of the ternary positive electrode active material particles, so as to maintain interface stability and dynamic integrity of the ternary positive electrode active material particles during a lithium deintercalation process of a battery containing the high-voltage ternary positive electrode material. Meanwhile, the flexible coating body can provide a uniform lithium ion transmission interface for lithium ion deintercalation, thereby reducing side reactions caused by easy breakage of the ternary positive electrode active material particles and addressing the problem of finally affecting the cycle performance and safety performance of the battery, and thereby improving the cycle performance and safety performance of the battery.
At S200, the flexible coating is dispersed. It may be understood that after dispersing the flexible coating first is beneficial for the ternary positive electrode active material to be evenly mixed in the flexible coating body, thus ensuring a further coating effect of the ternary positive electrode active material.
At S300, the ternary positive electrode active material is added into the dispersed flexible coating for coating operation, so that surfaces of ternary positive electrode active material particles are coated with a flexible coating body to obtain the high-voltage ternary positive electrode material. It may be understood that coating the flexible coating on the surface of the ternary positive electrode active material is to form the flexible coating body on the surface of the ternary positive electrode active material. After the flexible coating is dispersed, the ternary positive electrode active material is added for coating, which thereby improves mixing uniformity of the ternary positive electrode active material and the flexible coating, and further improves a coating effect of the ternary positive electrode active material, i.e., thereby improves a coating rate of the ternary positive electrode active material and improves particle size uniformity of the high-voltage ternary positive electrode material.
According to the preparation method of the high-voltage ternary positive electrode material, the flexible coating body is acquired, and the ternary positive electrode active material is further added for coating after the flexible coating, so that the flexible coating body is formed on the surface of the ternary positive electrode active material, which thereby improves the mixing uniformity of the ternary positive electrode active material and the flexible coating, so as to thereby improve the coating rate of the ternary positive electrode active material and improve the particle size uniformity of the high-voltage ternary positive electrode material. Moreover, because the flexible coating body has better flexibility and conductivity, the flexible coating body can adapt to interface changes of the ternary positive electrode active material particles, so as to maintain interface stability and dynamic integrity of the ternary positive electrode active material particles during the lithium deintercalation process of the battery containing the high-voltage ternary positive electrode material. Meanwhile, the flexible coating body can provide a uniform lithium ion transmission interface for lithium ion deintercalation, thus reducing side reactions caused by easy breakage of the ternary positive electrode active material particles and addressing the problem of finally affecting the cycle performance and safety performance of the battery, and thereby improving the cycle performance and safety performance of the battery.
In one embodiment, the ternary positive electrode active material is Li1+xNiaCobMncO2, 1/3<a≤0.8, 0.1≤b≤1/3, 0.1≤c≤1/3, 0≤x<0.2, and a+b+c=1, which is well adapted to the flexible coating, thus being beneficial to improve a specific capacity, the cycle performance and the safety performance of the high-voltage ternary positive electrode material.
In one embodiment, the ternary positive electrode active material is LiNi1/3Co1/3Mn1/3O2, LiNi0.4Co0.2Mn0.4O2, LiNi0.5Co0.2Mn0.3O2, LiNi0.6Co0.2Mn0.2O2 or LiNi0.4Co0.2Mn0.4O2, which is well adapted to the flexible coating, thus being beneficial to improve a specific capacity, the cycle performance and the safety performance of the high-voltage ternary positive electrode material.
In one embodiment, the acquiring the flexible coating specifically comprises the following steps of:
It may be understood that because the polyaniline is difficult to melt, mechanical blending, such as mixing and melting the polyaniline and the polyurethane elastomer, needs to increase an amount of the polyaniline used, and even so, it is difficult to fully and uniformly mix the polyaniline and the polyurethane elastomer, which affects performances of the coating layer of the ternary positive electrode active material. Therefore, in one embodiment, the aniline is acquired and first adhered to the polyurethane elastomer, and then the in-situ oxidation polymerization operation is carried out, so that the aniline undergoes oxidative polymerization to form a polyaniline film on the polyurethane elastomer, which thereby ensures the mixing uniformity of the polyurethane elastomer and the polyaniline, and thereby ensures that the flexible coating has better flexibility and conductivity, thereby improving the cycle performance and the safety performance of the battery.
In one embodiment, a mass ratio of the aniline to the polyurethane elastomer is (0.5 to 1.25): 1, which better ensures the sufficient coating of the polyurethane elastomer, effectively improves the conductivity of the polyurethane elastomer under the condition of ensuring the flexibility of the polyurethane elastomer, and further ensures the flexibility and conductivity of the flexible coating.
In one embodiment, before the step of adding the polyurethane elastomer into the aniline for dispersion and adhering operation, and after the step of acquiring the aniline, the acquiring the flexible coating specifically further comprises the following step of: dispersing and mixing the aniline and a phosphotungstic acid, which ensures that the aniline can effectively combine with protons and undergo in-situ oxidation polymerization operation to form the polyaniline film on the surface of the polyurethane elastomer when carrying out the in-situ oxidation polymerization operation on the coating liquid, and meanwhile, better ensures the effective doping and embedding of the phosphotungstic acid into the polyaniline film, and effectively ensures the structural characteristics of the phosphotungstic acid at the same time, thereby ensuring the flexibility and conductivity of the flexible coating obtained through the in-situ oxidation polymerization operation.
In one embodiment, a mass ratio of the aniline to the phosphotungstic acid is 1:(5 to 10), which better ensures the effective performing of the in-situ oxidation polymerization, i.e., better ensures the modified polyurethane doped with the phosphotungstic acid, and better improves the conductivity of the polyurethane elastomer.
In one embodiment, H2O2 is used to carry out the in-situ oxidation polymerization operation on the coating liquid, which preferably realizes polymerization and oxidation of the aniline.
In one embodiment, the step of using H2O2 to carry out the in-situ oxidation polymerization operation on the coating liquid specifically comprises the step of dropwise adding H2O2 into the coating liquid and reacting at room temperature for 20 hours to 25 hours.
In one embodiment, a dispersant is used to perform particle dispersing treatment on the coating liquid.
In one embodiment, the step of performing particle dispersing treatment on the coating liquid comprises: under a rotating speed of 100 RPM, adding the dispersant into the coating liquid and stirring for 30-50 minutes, which preferably realizes the sufficient and uniform dispersion of the coating liquid.
In one embodiment, the dispersing agent is a dodecylbenzenesulphonic acid, which has a better dispersing effect on the coating liquid, so that the dispersion uniformity of the coating liquid is better realized.
In one embodiment, before acquiring the flexible coating and after the step of carrying out the in-situ oxidation polymerization operation on the coating liquid, the preparation method of the high-voltage ternary positive electrode material further comprises the following step of: drying the coating liquid after the in-situ oxidation polymerization operation to reduce residual water or solvent of the high-voltage ternary positive electrode material, so as to preferably ensure electrochemical performances of the high-voltage ternary positive electrode material.
In one embodiment, the step of drying the coating liquid specifically comprises: drying the coating liquid after the in-situ oxidation polymerization operation at 55° C. to 60° C. for 20 hours to 25 hours, which better reduces the residual water or solvent of the high-voltage ternary positive electrode material, so as to preferably ensure electrochemical performances of the high-voltage ternary positive electrode material.

According to the high-voltage ternary positive electrode material of the present invention, the flexible coating body is the mixture of the polyaniline and the polyurethane elastomer and coated on the outer surfaces of the ternary positive electrode active material particles, so that the high-voltage ternary positive electrode material becomes a plurality of ternary positive electrode active material particles the surfaces of which are coated with the mixture of the polyaniline and the polyurethane elastomer. Because the flexible coating body containing the mixture of the polyaniline and the polyurethane elastomer has both flexibility and conductivity, the flexible coating body can adapt to interface changes of the ternary positive electrode active material particles, so as to maintain interface stability and dynamic integrity of the ternary positive electrode active material particles during the charging and discharging process of the battery containing the high-voltage ternary positive electrode material (i.e., during a lithium deintercalation process).
