CARBON-COATED LITHIUM-RICH OXIDE COMPOSITE MATERIAL AND PREPARATION METHOD THEREOF

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of positive electrode lithium-supplementing additives of the lithium battery, and discloses a carbon-coated lithium-rich oxide composite material and a preparation method thereof. The method comprises the following steps: (1) mixing an iron source or a cobalt source with a lithium source, and sintering to obtain a lithium-rich oxide LiFeOor LiCoO; wherein, a molar ratio of the lithium source to the iron source is 5-25:1, and a molar ratio of the lithium source to the cobalt source is 6-30:1; (2) crushing the lithium-rich oxide obtained in the step (1); and (3) mixing the lithium-rich oxide crushed in the step (2) with a carbon source, and sintering to obtain the carbon-coated lithium-rich oxide composite material. The carbon-coated lithium-rich oxide composite material prepared by the method of the present disclosure overcomes the insufficient conductivity of lithium-rich materials, and has good electrochemical properties, which is capable of effectively compensating for active lithium lost during the initial charge-discharge process of the lithium battery.
