  • Publication number: 20250163604
    Abstract: Disclosed is a preparation method for a single-crystal sodium-ion battery cathode material. The single-crystal sodium-ion battery cathode active material comprises: sodium, metal M, boron, and oxygen elements, and the preparation method comprises a step of adding an M-containing compound, a B-containing compound and a sodium source to water to form a slurry and sand grinding the slurry to obtain a mixed slurry and a step of spray drying the mixed slurry and sintering the dried mixed slurry to obtain the single-crystal sodium-ion battery cathode active material. The preparation method can be applied to a wide variety of raw materials, and can efficiently achieve uniform mixing of multiple raw materials at the nano level. After being sintered, the mixed slurry can form a perfect layered O3 phase structure. The prepared single-crystal sodium-ion battery cathode material has excellent electrochemical performance and cycle performance when used in a sodium-ion battery.

  • Publication number: 20240234711
    Abstract: Disclosed are a cathode active material for sodium-ion batteries and a preparation method therefor and an application thereof. The cathode active material has a chemical formula of NaxNiyFezMngMhAmO2, where M is selected from the group consisting of Ti, Al, Mg, Ca, Zr, Y, Zn, Nb, W and combinations thereof, A is selected from the group consisting of B, P, C and combinations thereof, 0.80?x?1.40, 0.05?y?0.95, 0.05?z?0.95, 0.05?g?0.95, 0.01?h?0.50, and 0.01?m?0.30. By adding M and A elements to the ternary iron-manganese-nickel cathode active material for sodium-ion batteries, and controlling the ratio of all elements, the present disclosure can achieve the formation of a perfect layered single-crystal structure of the cathode active material for sodium-ion batteries, with large particles, ultimately achieving the stability of the active material, and when used in sodium-ion batteries, it can significantly improve the cycling performance at high temperatures while ensuring high gram capacity.
