Problems solved by technology

However, the volume expansion of Sn in the process of lithium intercalation and deintercalation can reach 100-300%, which makes the negative electrode of the battery cause pulverization and peeling due to repeated huge changes in volume after more than a dozen cycles, and the performance drops sharply.

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for preparing tin-nickel alloy of cathode materials of a lithium ion battery by electrolyzing melted salt. The method comprises the following steps: uniformly mixing oxides of tin and nickel, sintering to obtain a sinter cake after slurry-casting or pressing shaping, compounding the sinter cake with a conductive current collector into a cathode, using graphite as an anode, using mixed electrolyte of CaCl2 or CaCl2, NaCl as a melt; controlling electrolysis voltage not to be less than theoretical decomposition voltage of the melted salt, controlling electrolysis temperature at 550-850 DEG C, protecting electrolysis process by inert gases, and preparing the tin-nickel alloy with Sn/Ni atom ratio of 4:3-1:3. The invention has short production process, low energy consumption, little pollution and easy continuous production; and the prepared tin-nickel alloy of the cathode materials of the lithium ion battery has high specific capacity and stable circulation property.
