Nanotechnology; cathode material; electrochemical performance.Abstract
The development of battery technology is in full swing. As an important part of battery structure, cathode material is related to a series of electrochemical properties such as battery safety, life, and specific capacity. According to the development of cathode materials, the bottleneck of battery performance caused by various properties of the material itself needs to be broken through. In many research directions of battery modification, the nano crystallization of cathode materials has the advantages of shorter ion transport distance, more active sites, more stable material structure and physical and chemical properties by virtue of its own structural advantages, which realizes more efficient battery electrochemical performance and solves some technical bottlenecks that traditional cathode materials cannot overcome. Therefore, this paper summarizes the improvement of cathode materials and battery performance brought by the multi-dimensional application of nanotechnology, and briefly expounds the prospects and challenges of nano-cathode materials.
