Application: Si alloy powder for negative electrode (Patent ID: US20240038977A1)
The patent filed by Daido Steel Co Ltd describes a Si alloy powder for a negative electrode, which includes a Si phase, a SiX compound phase, and either a SnY compound phase or an AlY compound phase. The element X in the alloy can be Fe, Ni, Cr, Co, Mn, Zr, or Ti, with the Si alloy powder having an average particle diameter of 50 µm or less and the Si phase making up 30% to 95% of the entire alloy. The patent also specifies various elements that can be included in the alloy, such as Ag, Au, B, Ba, Be, C, Ca, Cd, Ce, Cs, Dy, Er, Eu, F, Ga, Gd, H, Hf, Hg, Ho, Ir, La, Mo, N, Nd, O, Os, Pr, Pt, Rh, Re, Ru, Sb, Sc, Se, Sr, Ta, Tc, Te, Th, Tl, Tm, W, and Y.
The claims in the patent further detail the composition and characteristics of the Si alloy powder, including the presence of specific elements in the compound phases, the particle diameter requirements, and the ratios between different phases within the alloy. The patent emphasizes the importance of maintaining specific particle diameter ranges for the Si phase, SiX compound phase, and SnY compound phase, with ratios between them falling within certain limits. Additionally, the patent lists a wide range of elements that can be included as Y in the compound phases, expanding the potential variations in the composition of the Si alloy powder for a negative electrode.
