Problems solved by technology

At present, there is no single electrolyte that can meet the requirements of the lithium-air battery for the electrolyte system. The main way for the composite application of polymer electrolytes is to blend the above ion conductor polymers with other liquid electrolytes.
However, there is still the problem of volatilization of the liquid electrolyte, and the electrolyte dries up when the battery works for a long time, causing the battery to fail
Most importantly, although the blending method is simple and easy to operate, it has a limited effect on improving the performance of polymers and liquid electrolytes, and the overall performance of the system needs to be further improved.

Abstract

The invention provides a composite electrolyte for a lithium-air battery and a preparation method thereof. Lithium salts and certain additives are mixed with pyrrole-based ionic liquids to form a solution, and a polyvinyl acetal-based polymer porous film is immersed in the solution to fully absorb Residual liquid on the film surface was removed after swelling. The composite electrolyte has high room temperature ionic conductivity >10‐4S / cm, wide operating temperature range, almost no volatilization under open or semi-open working conditions and excellent hydrophobic properties, wide electrochemical stability window ≥5V (vs. Li / Li+), in the presence of oxygen and superoxide radical O2- during the cycle, no decomposition, no side reactions, excellent compatibility with positive and negative electrodes, uniform current density, and control of the discharge product Li2O2 particles The size and its distribution on the air cathode interface ensure the high reversibility and long cycle life of lithium-air batteries.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of chemical power sources, and in particular relates to a composite electrolyte system of a lithium-air battery and its preparation, and the application of the composite electrolyte system in a lithium-air battery. Background technique [0002] Lithium-air batteries have extremely high energy density, and their theoretical value can reach 3505Wh / kg (according to the product Li 2 o 2 mass calculation), which is much higher than the energy density of lithium-ion batteries, and also higher than the actual energy density of gasoline internal combustion engines. However, the problems of poor cycle stability and short life of lithium-air batteries have become bottlenecks hindering its development, and the high-stability electrolyte system is the basis and key to ensure the reversible reaction of lithium-air batteries and achieve long life. At present, the carbonate-based electrolyte used in lithium-ion batteries...
