Comparative example 2 compared to example 1: the proportion content of the functional material particles is too high, and the content of the active material particles is too low, so that the energy density of the pole piece is low, but the electronic conductivity and the structural stability of the battery are good, and the battery can obtain excellent first effect, cycle performance and expansion rate.
Comparative example 3 compared to example 1: the content of the first nickel-based oxide particles is lower than that of the second nickel-based oxide particles, which affects the energy density of the final battery.
Comparative example 4 compared to example 1: the content of the first nickel-based oxide is far higher than that of the second nickel-based oxide, the battery obtains better energy density and gram capacity, but the expansion performance is poor due to the fact that the number of cycles is too high when the content of nickel is too high.
Comparative example 5 compared to example 1: the low content of the fluorinated graphene and the high content of the metal oxide particles affect the conductivity of the battery, so that the first effect and the cycle performance are achieved.
Comparative example 6 compared to example 1: the content of the fluorinated graphene is higher, and the content of the metal oxide particles is higher, so that the performance of the battery cycle expansion rate is poorer.
Comparative example 7 compared to example 1: if the first nickel-based oxide particles and the second nickel-based oxide particles have the same size, the compacted density may be low, which may affect the gram capacity, the positive electrode energy density, and the first discharge capacity of the battery.
Comparative example 8 compared to example 1: the size of the first nickel-based oxide particles is smaller than that of the second nickel-based oxide particles, which affects gram capacity, positive electrode energy density and first discharge capacity of the battery.
Comparative example 9 compared to example 1: the functional material does not contain fluorinated graphene, so that the electronic conductivity performance of the battery is poor, and the first efficiency and the cycle performance of the battery are influenced.
Comparative example 10 compared to example 1: the functional material does not contain metal oxide, so that the structure of the positive active material is easy to collapse in the battery cycle process, and the battery cycle expansion rate performance is poor.
Comparative example 11 compared to example 1: the active material particles are only the first nickel-based oxide particles, so that the battery obtains higher gram capacity and anode energy density, and the expansion performance of the battery is influenced by the excessively high nickel content of the first nickel-based oxide particles.
Comparative example 12 compared to example 1: the active material particles are only the second nickel-based oxide particles, and the battery obtains lower gram capacity and positive electrode energy density.
Comparative example 13 compared to example 1: and a core-shell structure is not formed between the positive electrode materials, so that the performances of the battery are poorer than those of other examples and comparative examples.
To summarize: examples 1 to 12 are superior to comparative examples 1 to 2 in terms of gram capacity and energy density performance of the entire battery, but inferior in terms of cycle performance, first effect and cycle volume expansion rate performance, when the content of the functional material is too small, and in terms of electron conductivity and ion conductivity of the entire battery, but the lack of the active material leads to a lower capacity of the entire battery, when the content of the functional material is too large.
Examples 1 to 12, when the content of the metal oxide disappears or is lower, the cycle performance and the cycle expansion performance of the battery are inferior to those of comparative examples 6 and 10 because the structural stability of the active material is deteriorated during the cycle, affecting the cycle and the expansion rate.
In examples 1 to 12, when the content of the fluorinated graphene is disappeared or lower, the cycle performance and the first efficiency of the battery are poor, as compared with comparative examples 5 and 9, because the conductivity of the battery is deteriorated, and the cycle performance and the first efficiency of the entire battery are affected.
Examples 1 to 12, when the content of the first nickel-based oxide is excessively low, affect the gram capacity, the positive electrode energy density and the first discharge capacity of the battery as a whole, compared to comparative examples 3 to 4.
Examples 1-12 compared to comparative examples 7-9, when the size of the first nickel-based oxide particles was not greater than the size of the second nickel-based oxide particles, the compacted density of the pole piece was affected, thereby affecting the overall gram capacity, positive electrode energy density, and first discharge capacity.
Examples 1-12 compared to comparative examples 11-12, the active material particles achieved higher battery capacity for the first nickel-based oxide alone and slightly lower capacity performance for the second nickel-based oxide alone.
Comparative example 13 is inferior to examples 1 to 12 and comparative examples 1 to 12 in capacity performance, first effect and cycle performance, which indicates that the formation of a core-shell structure is an indispensable condition for obtaining the above excellent performance indexes.
TABLE 2
Figure SMS_2
As can be seen from table 2:
comparing the comparative examples 6 and 10 with other comparative examples and examples: when the content of the metal oxide disappears or is low, the battery has poor extensibility performance and severe flatulence, and a needling experiment cannot be performed.
Comparative examples 5 and 9 are compared with other comparative examples and examples: when the content of the fluorinated graphene is disappeared or is lower, the escape of oxygen atoms is not blocked, and the battery has serious flatulence, so that the safety performance of the battery is influenced.
Comparative examples 4 and 11 are compared with other comparative examples and examples: when the active material is only the first nickel-based oxide or the content of the first nickel-based oxide is too high, the nickel content is too high, the consumed electrolyte is not uniform, sodium precipitation is easy to occur, and the needle punching experiment is difficult to pass.
The pole piece and the battery prepared in the comparative example 13 have poor ductility and severe flatulence, and cannot pass a needling test by 100%, which indicates that the core-shell structure formed by the material is an essential condition for obtaining the excellent safety performance index.
