     The present application is a continuation of International Application No. PCT/CN2021/120755, filed Sep. 26, 2021, the entire content of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. 
    
    
     TECHNICAL FIELD 
     The present application relates to the field of lithium battery technologies, and in particular to a silicon carbon negative electrode material and a preparation method thereof, a negative electrode sheet including the same, a secondary battery, a battery module, a battery pack and a power consumption apparatus. 
     BACKGROUND 
     In recent years, with wider application of lithium ion batteries, the lithium ion batteries are widely applied to energy storage power systems, such as water power, heat power, wind power and solar power stations, as well as many fields, such as electrical tools, electric bicycles, electric motorcycles, electric vehicles, military equipment and aerospace. Among negative electrode materials of the lithium ion batteries, a silicon carbon negative electrode material has attracted much attention since silicon has an extremely high theoretical specific capacity, a low lithium storage reaction platform, wide distribution in nature, and other advantages. However, with increasing requirements for battery performance, how to further improve gram capacity, first coulombic efficiency and cycle performance of a silicon carbon negative electrode material battery is still an urgent issue to be solved. 
     SUMMARY 
     The present application is made in view of the above problem, which aims to provide a silicon carbon negative electrode material, so that a battery using the silicon carbon negative electrode material has higher first coulombic efficiency, better cycle performance and fast charging performance. 
     In order to achieve the above purpose, the present application provides a silicon carbon negative electrode material and a preparation method thereof, a negative electrode sheet including the same, a secondary battery, a battery module, a battery pack and a power consumption apparatus. 
     A first aspect of the present application provides a silicon carbon negative electrode material, where a battery composed of a negative electrode prepared by the silicon carbon negative electrode material as a working electrode, metal lithium as a counter electrode and an electrolyte containing a lithium ion conductive substance is charged and discharged, and in a case of drawing a relationship graph between a differential value dQ/dV obtained by differentiating a charging and discharging capacity Q by a working electrode potential V and the working electrode potential V, when energizing the negative electrode material in a direction of delithiation, a ratio of a maximum Y of dQ/dV between 400-480 mV to a maximum X of dQ/dV between 200-255 mV is 3.5-15, optionally 4-9, and more optionally 4.5-6.5. 
     The battery using the silicon carbon negative electrode material in the present application has high gram capacity, high first coulombic efficiency and fine cycle performance at the same time. 
     In any embodiment, optionally, in an X-ray diffraction pattern (XRD pattern) of the silicon carbon negative electrode material in the present application, a ratio of an intensity of a peak at 28.4 at 20 to an intensity of a peak at 54.6 at 20 is 1.1-4.5. 
     In any embodiment, optionally, a content of the silicon is 2.5%-10%, optionally 3%-7%, based on a total weight of the silicon carbon negative electrode material. When the content of the silicon is within the above range, the battery using the silicon carbon negative electrode material in the present application has the high gram capacity and fine cycle performance at the same time. 
     In any embodiment, optionally, a median particle size Dv50 of the silicon carbon negative electrode active material is 10 μm-15 μm, optionally 11 μm-14 μm. If the median particle size of the silicon carbon negative electrode material is too large, it may lead to lithium evolution during a cycle and deteriorate cycle performance, while if the median particle size of the silicon carbon negative electrode material is too small, it may also lead to increased compaction density and insufficient electrolytic solution infiltration of the active material and also deteriorate the cycle performance. 
     In any embodiment, optionally, the silicon carbon negative electrode material has no pores or the number of pores with a diameter greater than 50 nm in a single silicon carbon negative electrode material particle is less than 10. When the number of pores of the silicon carbon negative electrode material is within the above range, it will help to reduce a side reaction at a pore interface, thereby increasing the first coulombic efficiency and improving the cycle performance. 
     In any embodiment, optionally, a specific surface area of the silicon carbon negative electrode material is 1 m 2 -3 m 2 , optionally 1.1 m 2 -2 m 2 . When the specific surface area of the silicon carbon negative electrode material is within the above range, it has an appropriate number of reactive active sites, which helps to reduce the side reaction and improve dynamic performance.

     The preparation method of the present application has advantages of simple process, wide source of raw materials and low cost, which is conducive to large-scale industrial application. 
     In any embodiment, optionally, a median particle size Dv50 of the silicon source is 1 μm-3 μm, and a median particle size Dv50 of the carbon source is 8 μm-14 μm. When the median particle size of the silicon source and the carbon source is within the above range, the prepared silicon carbon negative electrode material has a suitable particle size range, which helps to improve the cycle performance of the battery using the silicon carbon negative electrode material. 
     In any embodiment, optionally, the additive is selected from one or more of glucose, phenolic resin, sucrose, pitch, polyacrylonitrile, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, polyvinylidene fluoride, and polytetrafluoroethylene. 
     In any embodiment, optionally, a heating condition of the muddy mixture is: pretreatment at 100-400° C., optionally 100-300° C. for 2-6 hours. When the above condition is used for heat treatment, the prepared silicon carbon negative electrode material is more helpful to improve the cycle performance of the battery. 
     In any embodiment, optionally, a heat treatment condition of the silicon carbon negative electrode material intermediate in the inert gas atmosphere is heating at 600-1000° C. for 2-6 hours. When the treatment is performed under the above heat treatment condition, the prepared silicon carbon negative electrode material is more helpful to improve the cycle performance of the battery. 
     In any embodiment, optionally, the carbon source is selected from one or more of graphite, coke, activated carbon, diamond, and C 60 , and may optionally graphite with a graphitization degree of 82%-97%. 
     In any embodiment, optionally, the silicon source is selected from one or more of elemental silicon, silicon oxide, and silicate, and may optionally the elemental silicon. 
     A third aspect of the present application provides a negative electrode sheet, including the silicon carbon negative electrode material according to the first aspect of the present application or the silicon carbon negative electrode material prepared by the method according to the second aspect of the present application. 
     A fourth aspect of the present application provides a secondary battery, including the silicon carbon negative electrode material according to the first aspect of the present application or the silicon carbon negative electrode material prepared by the method according to the second aspect of the present application or the negative electrode sheet according to the third aspect of the present application.

     The “ranges” disclosed in the present application is defined in the form of lower limits and upper limits, a given range is defined by selection of a lower limit and an upper limit, and the selected lower and upper limits define the boundaries of a specific range. The range defined in this manner may or may not include end values, and may be combined arbitrarily, that is, any lower limit may be combined with any upper limit to form a range. For example, if ranges of 60-120 and 80-110 are listed for a particular parameter, it is understood that ranges of 60-110 and 80-120 are also contemplated. In addition, if the minimum range values listed are 1 and 2, and the maximum range values listed are 3, 4 and 5, all the following ranges are contemplated: 1-3, 1-4, 1-5, 2-3, 2-4, and 2-5. In the present application, unless otherwise specified, a numerical range “a-b” represents an abbreviated representation of any combination of real numbers between a and b, where both a and b are real numbers. For example, a numerical range “0-5” means that all real numbers between “0-5” have been listed herein, and “0-5” is just an abbreviated representation of combination of these numerical values. In addition, when a certain parameter is expressed as an integer it is equivalent to disclosing that the parameter is, for example, an integer of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, or the like.

After extensive research, the inventors unexpectedly found that in the above relationship graph of the material, when a ratio of a maximum value Y of dQ/dV between 400-480 mV to a maximum value X of dQ/dV between 200-255 mV is 3.5-15, optionally 4-9, and more optionally 4.5-6.5, the secondary battery prepared by using the corresponding silicon carbon negative electrode material may have high gram capacity, high first coulombic efficiency and fine cycle performance at the same time. 
     [Silicon Carbon Negative Electrode Material] 
     A first aspect of the present application provides a silicon carbon negative electrode material, where a battery composed of a negative electrode prepared by the silicon carbon negative electrode material as a working electrode, metal lithium as a counter electrode and an electrolyte containing a lithium ion conductive substance is charged and discharged, and in a case of drawing a relationship graph between a differential value dQ/dV obtained by differentiating a charging and discharging capacity Q by a working electrode potential V and the working electrode potential V, when energizing the negative electrode material in a direction of delithiation, a ratio of a maximum Y of dQ/dV between 400-480 mV to a maximum X of dQ/dV between 200-255 mV is 3.5-15, optionally 4-9 4-9, and more optionally 4.5-6.5. 
     Although a mechanism is not yet clear, the inventors unexpectedly found screening a silicon carbon negative electrode material with a ratio of Y to X within the above range may improve the gram capacity, first coulombic efficiency and cycle performance of a battery including the silicon carbon negative electrode material. 
     In some embodiments, optionally, in an X-ray diffraction pattern of the silicon carbon negative electrode material in the present application, a ratio of an intensity of a peak at 28.4 at 20 to an intensity of a peak at 20 at 54.6 is 1.1-4.5. 
     A XRD test of the silicon carbon negative electrode material in the present application may be tested by referring to a method commonly used by those skilled in the art, for example, the test may be performed according to JIS K0131-1996 General Rules for X-ray Diffraction Analysis. Another example is to use a Bruker D8 Discover X-ray diffractometer from Bruker A×S, Germany, with a CuKα ray as a radiation source, a ray wavelength λ=1.5406 Å, a scanning 2θ angle range is 20°˜80°, and a scanning rate is 4°/min. 
     In some embodiments, optionally, a content of the silicon in the silicon carbon negative electrode material is 2.5%-10%, optionally 3%-7%, based on a total weight of the silicon carbon negative electrode material. 
     The silicon is beneficial to improve the gram capacity of the silicon carbon negative electrode material, thereby improving an energy density of the battery, but the silicon should not be too much, excessive silicon may lead to poor expansion and contraction performance of the silicon carbon negative electrode material, and the silicon carbon negative electrode material loss electrical contact with a current collector due to expansion, thereby impairing the cycle performance of the battery. In addition, excessive silicon content may also cause a gap at bonding between particles become larger, resulting in increased rebound of an electrode sheet. 
     In some embodiments, optionally, a content of carbon in the silicon carbon negative electrode material is 80%-97.5%, optionally 90%-96.5%, based on the total weight of the silicon carbon negative electrode material. 
     The carbon is beneficial to alleviate deterioration of the expansion and contraction performance of the negative electrode material caused by the silicon, thereby improving the cycle performance of the battery. However, excessive carbon content may cause the decreased gram capacity of the negative electrode material, thereby decreasing the gram capacity of the battery. 
     In some embodiments, optionally, a median particle size Dv50 of the silicon carbon negative electrode material is 10 μm-15 μm, optionally 11 μm-14 μm. 
     If the median particle size of the silicon carbon negative electrode material is too large, on the one hand, it may be detrimental to rate performance of the battery due to the increased impedance, and on the other hand, lithium evolution may occur during the cycle and deteriorate the cycle performance of the battery. At the same time, excessively large median particle size of the silicon carbon negative electrode material may also cause the negative electrode material to undergo slight expansion and contraction, that is, loss the electrical contact with the current collector, resulting in the decreased coulombic efficiency and cycle performance. Similarly, if the median particle size of the silicon carbon negative electrode material is too small, on the one hand, electrochemical reaction sites of the material may increase, more SEI films are formed, and more active lithium is consumed, thereby resulting in the decreased first coulombic efficiency, and on the other hand, it may also result in the increased bonding between the particles, thereby leading to insufficient electrolytic solution infiltration of an active material and deterioration of the cycle performance. 
     It should be noted that the median particle size Dv50 of the silicon negative electrode material in the present application is a meaning known in the art, and may be measured by instruments and methods known in the art. For example, referring to GB/T 19077-2016 Particle size analysis-Laser diffraction methods, it can be conveniently measured by using a laser particle size analyzer, such as a Mastersizer 2000E laser particle size analyzer from Malvern Instruments Ltd., UK. 
     In any embodiment, optionally, the silicon carbon negative electrode material has no pores or the number of pores with a diameter greater than 50 nm in a single silicon carbon negative electrode material particle is less than 10. 
     The more pores of the silicon carbon negative electrode material, the more side reactions at a pore interface may be, and more active lithium and electrolytic solution are consumed, so that both the first coulombic efficiency and cycle performance decrease. At the same time, the pore may adsorb the electrolytic solution, resulting in the insufficient electrolytic solution infiltration of the active material, further deteriorating the cycle performance. 
     In the present application, a scanning electron microscope test of the silicon carbon negative electrode material may be performed according to a method commonly used in the art. For example, a ZEISS sigma 300 scanning electron microscope may be used to test, and then the test may be performed with reference to a standard JY/T010-1996. 
     In any embodiment, optionally, a specific surface area of the silicon carbon negative electrode material is 1 m 2 -3 m 2 , optionally 1.1 m 2 -2 m 2    
     The larger the specific surface area of the silicon carbon negative electrode material, the more active sites in general, which may increase the side reactions and affect the cycle performance of the battery. Similarly, the smaller the specific surface area of the silicon carbon negative electrode material, the worse the kinetic performance may be, and simultaneously the lithium evolution of the battery may be caused, which deteriorates the cycle performance. 
     The specific surface area of the silicon negative electrode material in the present application has a known meaning in the art, and may be measured using the instruments and methods known in the art. For example, with reference to GB/T 19587-2017 determination of the specific surface area of solids by gas adsorption using the BET method, the test may be performed by using a method of nitrogen adsorption specific surface area analysis and test, and a calculation may be made by using a BET (Brunauer Emmett Teller) method to obtain the result, where the nitrogen adsorption specific surface area analysis and test may be performed by a Tri Star II 3020 specific surface area and a porosity analyzer from Micromeritics Company, United States. 
     A second aspect of the present application provides a method of preparing a silicon carbon negative electrode material, including the following steps: 
     providing a silicon source and a carbon source; 
     adding the silicon source and the carbon source into an additive solution, evenly mixing, and then removing a solvent to obtain a muddy mixture; 
     heating the muddy mixture to obtain a silicon carbon anode material intermediate; and 
     heating the silicon carbon anode material intermediate in an inert gas atmosphere to obtain the silicon carbon negative electrode material, where 
     a battery composed of a negative electrode prepared by the silicon carbon negative electrode material as a working electrode, metal lithium as a counter electrode and an electrolyte containing a lithium ion conductive substance is charged and discharged, and in a case of drawing a relationship graph between a differential value dQ/dV obtained by differentiating a charging and discharging capacity Q by a working electrode potential V and the working electrode potential V, when energizing the negative electrode material in a direction of delithiation, a ratio of a maximum Y of dQ/dV between 400-480 mV to a maximum X of dQ/dV between 200-255 mV is 3.5-15, optionally 4-9, and more optionally 4.5-6.5. 
     In any embodiment, optionally, a median particle size Dv50 of the silicon source is 1 μm-3 μm, and a median particle size Dv50 of the carbon source is 8 μm-14 μm. 
     When the median particle sizes of the silicon source and the carbon source are within the above ranges, the silicon carbon negative electrode material prepared by the method in the present application has the high gram capacity and fine cycle performance. 
     In any embodiment, optionally, the additive is selected from one or more of glucose, phenolic resin, sucrose, pitch, polyacrylonitrile, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, polyvinylidene fluoride, and polytetrafluoroethylene.

     In any embodiment, optionally, in the preparation method in the present application, the silicon source is selected from one or more of elemental silicon, silicon oxide, and silicate, and may optionally the elemental silicon. 
     In any embodiment, optionally, a weight ratio of the added amount of the silicon source to the added amount of the carbon source is 2%-15% 
     In any embodiment, optionally, the addition amount of the additive is 3%-25%, based on a total weight of the silicon source, the carbon source and the additive.

A specific test method is as follows: microwave digest 0.5 g silicon carbon negative electrode material sample with 10 mL nitric acid with mass fraction of 65% and 10 mL hydrofluoric acid with mass fraction of 40%, add it to a 50 mL volumetric flask to fix volume after digesting, and then use ICAP-7000 ICP-OES to measure the content of the silicon. 
     Measurement Method of Pores Inside Silicon Particle: 
     1. Prepare a silicon carbon negative electrode material into a slurry, coat it on a current collector, and obtain an electrode sheet after drying. 
     2. Use a plasma cutting (Plasma Cutting) technology to cut the above negative electrode sheet to obtain a neat section, and observe the section under a scanning electron microscope equipped with an energy disperse spectroscopy (EDS, Energy Disperse Spectroscopy) apparatus. Randomly select 5 complete particles with a diameter &gt;800 nm (a diameter of a circumscribed circle of the particle profile is a diameter of the particle) for analysis. 
     3. For each silicon particle, use an energy disperse spectroscopy technology to analyze composition of the particle. Determine whether it is the silicon particle according to the composition of the particle. An identification standard of the silicon particle in the following embodiments is as follows: if the content of the silicon in the particle is ≥7 wt %, it is determined to be the silicon particle. 
     4. Measure the pores inside each silicon particle. A measurement method is as follows: first, pores on an edge of a SEM image are not recorded as the number, but only the number of pores inside the SEM image is recorded. A diameter of a circumscribed circle of the pore inside the silicon particle is defined as a diameter of the pore, and if a diameter of the pore is 50 nm, it is recorded as one, until all pores inside the particle are completely measured, and the number of all pores inside the particle is summed up, then the summed value is defined as the total number of pores inside the silicon particle. 
     Graphitization Degree Test: 
     Gaphitization degree of the graphite in the present application may be tested by methods known in the art. For example, the graphitization degree may be tested by using an X-ray diffractometer (Bruker D8 Discover), the test may refer to JIS K 0131-1996, and JB/T 4220-2011 to measure a size of d002, and then calculate the graphitization degree according to a formula G=(0.344−d002)/(0.344−0.3354), where d002 is a layer spacing in an artificial graphite crystal structure expressed in nanometer (nm).

     According to Table 1 and Table 2, it can be seen that a battery prepared by using the silicon carbon negative electrode material of embodiments 1-11 have high gram capacity, high first coulombic efficiency and fine cycle capacity retention rate. 
     It can be seen from embodiments 1-11 that when a Y/X ratio of the silicon carbon negative electrode material is in a range of 3.5-15, the cycle capacity retention rate of the secondary battery is significantly better than that of comparing embodiments 1-3 whose Y/X ratio is not in this range. 
     It can be seen from embodiments 1-5 and comparing embodiment 2 that as a content of silicon gradually increases, the gram capacity of the secondary battery is also increasing, but when the content of the silicon exceeds 10% (comparing embodiment 2), the cycle capacity retention rate of the secondary battery significantly decreases. 
     It can be seen from embodiment 3 and embodiments 6-9 that as the graphitization degree of the carbon source increases from 70% to 99%, the gram capacity of the corresponding battery gradually increases, and the first coulombic efficiency and cycle capacity retention rate first increase and then decrease. When the graphitization degree of the carbon source is 82%-97%, overall performance of the battery is better. 
     It can be seen from embodiment 10 and embodiment 7, embodiment 3 and embodiment 11, and embodiment 8 and embodiment 12 that as pretreatment temperature increases from 100° C. to 400° C., the gram capacity and first coulombic efficiency of the corresponding battery gradually decrease, but the cycle capacity retention rate keeps increasing first and then decreasing. It can be seen from embodiment 3 and comparing embodiment 1 that as the pretreatment temperature increases from 150° C. to 500° C., various performance of the corresponding battery is significantly deteriorated.

     It can be seen from Table 3 and Table 4 that the gram capacity, first coulombic efficiency and cycle capacity retention rate of embodiments 14-24 are significantly better than those of comparing embodiments 4-6. 
     It can be seen from embodiments 14-16 and comparing embodiment 4 that when the number of pores with a diameter greater than 50 nm in a single silicon carbon negative electrode material is less than 10, battery performance does not significantly change, but as the number of pores continues to increase to 30, the gram capacity and first coulombic efficiency significantly decrease, and the capacity retention rate decreases more obviously after 50 cycles. 
     It can be seen from embodiments 17-20 and comparing embodiment 5 that compared with the median particle size Dv50 of the silicon carbon negative electrode material being 10 μm-15 μm, the battery performance is better when the median particle size is 18 μm. And when the median particle size is 11 μm-14 μm, improvement of the battery performance is more obvious. 
     It can be seen from embodiments 21-24 and comparing embodiment 6 that compared with the specific surface area of the silicon carbon negative electrode material being 1 m 2 -3 m 2 , the battery performance is better when the specific surface area is 3.5. And when the specific surface area is 1.1 m 2 -2 m 2 , the improvement of the battery performance is more obvious.
