摘要
High-efficiency doping of strong-bonding energy heteroatoms is an effective strategy to stabilize high-voltage LiNi0.5Co0.2Mn0.3O2 (NCM) ternary cathode materials and improve their electrochemical performance. Herein, a strategy with boron-containing precursor surface enrichment and diffusion-reinforcement by high-temperature calcination is proposed to construct high-efficiency B-doped LiNi0.5Co0.2Mn0.3O2 cathode material (NCM-B). The high B-O bond energy (809 kJ•mol-1) greatly inhibits the evolution of oxygen atoms, hence steadying the oxygen ion framework. Moreover, the LiO2-B2O3 coating layer with high Li+ conductivity can stabilize the electrode-electrolyte interface. Compared with pure NCM, the NCM-B exhibits a high reversible capacity of 193.7 mA•h•g-1 within 3.0-4.5 V and delivers a superior high-rate performance of 120 mA•h•g-1 at 10 C (only 78.2 mA•h•g-1 for NCM). Furthermore, the capacity retention after 100 cycles at 1 C can be improved from 73% to 90%. The present surface-enrichment and diffusion-reinforcement strategy is expected to realize high-efficiency doping of other cathode materials. © 2021, Editorial Board of CIESC Journal.
