Problems solved by technology

However, this method has its own defects. Although it can cut off the connection between the lithium-ion battery and the outside, it cannot prevent the internal reaction of the lithium-ion battery from continuing, or even thermal runaway.
(3) By improving the design of lithium-ion batteries, such as using a positive temperature coefficient thermistor, when the temperature exceeds a certain temperature, its resistance value increases stepwise with the increase of temperature, and it will fuse when it reaches a certain temperature. The thermal self-closing diaphragm is similar, and it cannot prevent the reaction inside the lithium-ion battery from continuing, and thermal runaway may also occur
However, studies have found that directly adding flame retardant additives to the lithium-ion battery electrolyte will greatly affect the electrochemical performance of the lithium-ion battery, such as affecting the formation of the SEI film on the negative electrode, which will lead to the electrolysis of the exposed negative electrode active material and the lithium-ion battery. The liquid solvent directly contacts and undergoes a reduction reaction, producing a large amount of gas, and even graphite peeling, which will cause the lithium-ion battery to lose its function

Abstract

The invention provides a capsule and a lithium ion battery. The capsule is accommodated in the lithium ion battery and comprises a capsule wall and a capsule core. The melting point of the capsule wall ranges from 100 DEG C to 160 DEG C and is not dissolved in electrolyte of the lithium ion battery. The gasification temperature of is not lower than the melting point of the capsule wall and not higher than 400 DEG C. Gas generated by capsule core gasification is flame retardant. The flame-retardant gas is mixed with electrolyte steam and / or combustible flue gas / combustible smoke steam generated during thermal runaway of the lithium ion battery and sprayed out from the outer package of the lithium ion battery. The lithium ion battery comprises the capsule. When the lithium ion battery operates normally, the capsule does not affect electrochemical performance of the lithium ion battery. During thermal runaway of the lithium ion battery, the capsule wall cracks to release the capsule core, the capsule core is gasified to form the flame-retardant gas, the flame retardant function of the capsule is achieved, flame retardance is achieved, and safety performance of the lithium ion battery is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of batteries, in particular to a capsule and a lithium ion battery. Background technique [0002] The application of lithium-ion batteries in the field of new energy vehicles is becoming more and more widespread. However, reports of lithium-ion battery safety accidents have also increased significantly, such as the battery fire of Shanghai electric bus No. The taxi collided and caught fire, etc. Therefore, more and more attention has been paid to the safety performance of lithium-ion batteries. The common causes of lithium-ion battery accidents are mechanical abuse, that is, accidental collisions, extrusions, drops, etc. lead to internal short circuits in lithium-ion batteries; harsh operating environments, such as long-term operation in high-temperature environments; improper use or other reasons. Abuse, such as overcharge, overdischarge, etc. Normally, when the temperature of a lithium-ion battery reaches 100°C, ...
