Problems solved by technology

[0004] First of all, the lithium ions deintercalated from the positive electrode active material through the electrolyte and through the separator cannot be intercalated into the negative electrode graphite due to the hindrance of the gas, which will react with the free lithium ion produced by the electrochemical reduction reaction of the electrolyte solvent. The base undergoes various complex chain reactions to generate organic lithium salts. When the bubbles disappear, this part of lithium salts will deposit on the surface of the negative electrode to form white spots, which are electrochemically inert, that is, when the battery is discharged, the lithium in the white spots The ions will not move back into the positive electrode active material, and the discharge capacity of the battery will decrease at this time. In addition, the white spots deposited on the surface of the negative electrode have poor lithium conductivity, which makes the battery rate and cycle performance poor.
[0005] Secondly, the lithium ions that should be embedded in the graphite of the negative electrode to undergo electrochemical reactions are hindered by the gas, causing the negative electrode to undergo concentration polarization, and the potential of the negative electrode drops rapidly. The electrochemical reduction reaction produces metallic lithium, and the accumulation of metallic lithium produces lithium dendrites, which pose a safety hazard of piercing the separator; at the same time, the SEI film formed on the surface of the negative electrode is not uniform and dense.
[0006] Finally, with the deepening of the formation depth, the potential of the negative electrode is getting lower and lower, and a large amount of LiC with high reduction activity is generated at the same time. 6 , LiC 6 It will chemically react with the gas generated during the formation process and be partially consumed, resulting in a loss of battery capacity
[0007] In addition, the gas generated during the formation process takes away a large amount of electrolyte, and the overflowing electrolyte will corrode the battery shell and the formation cabinet, affecting the appearance of the battery and shortening the service life of the formation cabinet
The most important thing is that the overflow of the electrolyte makes the actual amount of liquid remaining in the battery less than the process value, and the p
