摘要

Metal-oxide coatings are a favoured strategy for mitigating surface degradation problems in state-of-the-art lithium-ion battery Ni-rich layered positive electrode materials. Despite their extensive use, a full, fundamental understanding of the role of coatings in reducing degradation and extending cycling lifetimes is currently lacking. In this work, the interactions between an atomic layer deposited (ALD) alumina coating on polycrystalline LiNi0.8Mn0.1Co0.1O2 (NMC811) and a carbonate-based battery electrolyte are studied. Solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (ssNMR) heteronuclear experiments show that the Al2O3 coating transforms by reacting with electrolyte species present before and during electrochemical cycling, scavenging protic and acidic species. Density-functional theory calculations highlight the additional chemical effect of the coating in locally stabilising the structure of the NMC811, limiting oxidation of the oxygen atoms coordinated to both Al and Ni, thereby limiting the surface reconstruction process and improving the electrochemical performance. Improved NMC811 surface stability is confirmed by monitoring gaseous degradation species by operando electrochemical mass-spectrometry and via X-ray spectroscopic analysis of the electrochemically aged samples to examine changes in Ni and O oxidation state and local structure. The combination of this experimental and theoretical analysis suggests that Al2O3 coatings have a dual role: as a protective barrier against attack from chemical species in the electrolyte, and as an artificial passivating layer hindering oxygen loss and surface phase transformations. This holistic approach, which provides a fundamental understanding of how the surface stability is improved by the coating, will aid the design of the state-of-the-art and future positive electrode materials.
