3. Performance testing
(1) 0.2C rate cycle test: the cyclic charge and discharge test was performed on a blue electric test system at a rate of 0.2C (1c=150 mA/g) at room temperature (about 25 ℃) and a voltage range of 2.0 to 4.5V, and the specific capacity of the first-turn discharge and the capacity retention after 100-turn cycle were measured and are shown in table 1.
(2) 1C rate cycle test: the cyclic charge and discharge test was performed on a blue electric test system at a rate of 1C (1c=150ma/g) at room temperature (about 25 ℃), and the voltage range was 2.0 to 4.5V, and the specific capacity of the first-turn discharge and the capacity retention after 100-turn cycle were measured and are shown in table 1.
TABLE 1
As can be seen from table 1, examples 1 to 3 can effectively increase the compacted density of the positive electrode active material and increase the specific discharge capacity and the capacity retention rate of the battery under different rate conditions, relative to comparative example 1. Wherein, comparative example 1 was not coated, and the positive electrode active material was subjected to side reaction with the electrolyte during the battery cycle, and the structure of the positive electrode active material was also changed, resulting in deterioration of electrochemical properties, and examples 1 to 3 were coated with the matrix material by the titanium compound, so that the problems could be effectively overcome.
Further, examples 1 to 3 can effectively improve the compacted density of the positive electrode active material, while simultaneously achieving both of the performance of maintaining a high specific discharge capacity, a high capacity retention rate, and the like, as compared to comparative example 2.
In addition, in example 1, titanium dioxide was used as a titanium source, so that the compacted density of the positive electrode active material could be further increased, and the specific discharge capacity and the capacity retention rate of the battery could be improved, as compared with example 2 and example 3. The analytical reasons are that tetrabutyl titanate is relatively unstable, and can be hydrolyzed in the grinding process, and titanium dioxide can overcome the problems, so that the coating effect on a matrix material can be improved; in addition, lithium titanate only plays a coating role, and titanium dioxide can be doped into the crystal lattice of the matrix material at high temperature besides the coating role, so that the material structure is further stabilized, and the performance of the prepared positive electrode active material is optimized.
Finally, it should be noted that: the above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical solution of the present invention, and not for limiting the same; although the invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that: the technical scheme described in the foregoing embodiments can be modified or some or all of the technical features thereof can be replaced by equivalents; such modifications and substitutions do not depart from the spirit of the invention.
