Abstract
In recent years, ternary nickel-rich layered oxides have gradually replaced traditional binary cathode materials in the lithium-ion battery market due to their advantages of high energy density and environmental protection. However, their structural instability of cathode materials has seriously affected the cycle performance of the battery. In order to optimize the internal structure of LiNi0.5Co0.2Mn0.3O2 (NCM523), the modified LiNi0.5Co0.2Mn0.3O2 was prepared by in situ doping Na and Cl wet grinding solid phase method. After 80 cycles at 1 C, the capacity retention rate was 80.91%, which was higher than that of LiNi0.5Co0.2Mn0.3O2 by 70.00%. Scanning electron microscopy showed that the surface corrosion of LiNi0.5Co0.2Mn0.3O2 was effectively alleviated by Na and Cl co-doping. In addition, the band structure, state density and volume changes were obtained by simulation. The results show that the impedance, capacity and capacity retention data are very compatible with the simulation results. Therefore, Na and Cl doping can effectively optimize the internal structure of LiNi0.5Co0.2Mn0.3O2 and improve its electrochemical performance. The combination of simulation and experiment provides a new approach for the modification of ternary cathode materials.
