摘要: 富镍锂过渡金属氧化物正极具有高容量及高工作电压的优点,是理想的高能量动力电池材料。富镍锂过渡金属氧化物正极的性能主要受其氢氧化物前驱体的结构、形貌、粒径等因素影响。一次晶粒和二次颗粒形貌与尺寸可控的球形氢氧化物前驱体是制备优异电化学性能的富镍正极材料的关键。氢氧化物前驱体沉淀结晶过程中工艺参数会影响前驱体性能,其生长机制对于调控沉淀结晶具有指导意义。本论文首先介绍了沉淀结晶相关基础理论,其次探讨了富镍正极材料氢氧化物前驱体沉淀结晶生长机制和沉淀反应因素对氢氧化物物理及化学性能影响,最后介绍了合成单晶、放射状和核壳结构等特殊富镍正极材料的前驱体。Abstract: The nickel-rich lithium transition metal oxide cathode is an ideal high-energy power battery material due to its high capacity and high working voltage. Its performance is mainly affected by the structure, morphology, particle size and other factors of its hydroxide precursor. The spherical hydroxide precursor with controllable morphology and size of primary grain and secondary particles is the key for the preparation of nickel-rich cathode materials with excellent electrochemical performance. During the precipitation and crystallization process of hydroxide precursor, the process parameters will affect the performance of the precursor, and its growth mecha-nism has guiding significance for regulating the precipitation and crystallization. This paper reviews the basic theories related to precipitation crystallization, then discusses the growth mechanism of precipitation crystallization for hydroxide precursors of nickel-rich cathode materials and the influence of precipitation reaction factors on the physical and chemical properties of hydroxide. At last, the precursors for the synthesis of nickel-rich cathode materials with special structures such as single crystal, radial and core-shell structures are introduced.
