Embodiment 1

[0038] Example 1: 1M LiPF with added dimethyl sulfate 6 Lithium deposition / deposition efficiency of EC / DMC (v=1:1) electrolyte

[0039] In an inert atmosphere, add 1 wt% dimethyl sulfate to commercially available 1M LiPF 6 EC / DMC (v=1:1) solution to prepare the electrolyte solution for use. According to the order of the positive battery shell, copper pole piece, separator, lithium metal pole piece, and negative battery shell, inject the electrolyte to be used, and assemble it into a button battery in the glove box.

[0040] The assembled button battery constitutes a copper and lithium two-electrode system. The lithium metal pole piece is used as a reference and auxiliary electrode, and the copper pole piece is used as a working electrode. The deposition and precipitation process of lithium metal on the current collector can be investigated. By analyzing this process , the reversibility and efficiency of the deposition and precipitation process can be judged, so as to exami...

Embodiment 2

[0042] Example 2: 1M LiPF with added dimethyl sulfate 6 Scanning electron microscope topography of lithium deposition / precipitation in EC / DMC (v=1:1) electrolyte

[0043] Using the method of Example 1, the button cell after 20 weeks of circulation was disassembled in the glove box, the copper pole pieces were taken out, washed with dimethyl carbonate, dried, and placed under a scanning electron microscope for observation, the results Such as image 3 shown. The control group without adding sulfate additives showed a typical lithium deposition morphology. Acicular needle-like dendrites with a diameter of about 200nm were deposited on the copper current collector. The growth of dendrites in this form would pierce the separator and cause battery internal damage. short circuit, causing serious safety problems. After adding the sulfate additive, after the electrolyte was circulated for 20 weeks, the morphology of the lithium deposition was dendrites about 5 μm nodular particles...

Embodiment 3

[0044] Example 3: 1M LiTFSI DOL / DME (v=1:1)+1% LiNO with added diethyl sulfate 3 Lithium deposition / deposition efficiency of electrolyte

[0045] In an inert atmosphere, add diethyl sulfate to 1M LiTFSI DOL / DME (v=1:1)+1% LiNO 3 In the electrolyte, its mass fraction is 3.8%. Li|Cu button cells were assembled according to the method in Example 1, and the electrochemical performance test was carried out.

[0046] Figure 4 It is 1M LiTFSI DOL / DME (v=1:1)+1% LiNO with added diethyl sulfate 3 Electrolyte Li|Cu battery cycle life diagram. From Figure 4 It can be seen that the deposition / precipitation efficiency of the blank control example is only 91.2% in the first week, while the electrolyte solution added with diethyl sulfate additive improves the efficiency to 95.1% in the first week. At the same time, the number of Li|Cu battery cycles increased from 40 to 100 cycles with the addition of diethyl sulfate electrolyte, an increase of 2.5 times. Prove that the sulfate este...

Abstract

The invention discloses a lithium battery electrolyte based on a sulfate additive. The lithium battery electrolyte comprises a solvent A, a lithium salt B and a sulfate additive C. The sulfate additive C is used for participating in the formation of SEI on the surface of a lithium metal negative electrode, and decoration / modification is carried out on the SEI film on the surface of the electrode; the sulfate additive C comprises the components such as ethylene sulfate, 4-methyl-1,3,2-dioxathiolane 2-oxide and trimethylene sulfite and has relatively low lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energy, electrons are easily obtained, the components are reduced more easily, and a decomposition product of the additive is rich in Li2S and Li2O, inorganic constituents are introduced on the surface of the lithium negative electrode, the mechanical strength of the SEI is improved by regulating and controlling the constituents of the SEI, so that the stability of the SEI is improved, and then the growth of lithium dendrites is inhibited, the service life of a lithium metal battery is prolonged, and the cycle performance of the lithium metal battery is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a lithium battery electrolyte based on a sulfuric acid ester additive, which belongs to the field of lithium batteries and also belongs to the field of new energy materials and technologies. Background technique [0002] "Lithium metal battery" is a type of battery that uses lithium metal or lithium alloy as the negative electrode material and uses a non-aqueous electrolyte solution. Lithium metal density is small (0.59g / cm -3 ), low negative potential (-3.040V vs. SHE), and high theoretical specific capacity (3860mAh / g), which is 10 times that of graphite electrodes (372mAh / g) used in traditional lithium-ion batteries. Therefore, lithium metal batteries are expected to become A new generation of high energy density batteries. [0003] The main problems currently faced by lithium metal batteries are dendrite growth on the lithium surface and low Coulombic efficiency. The generation of lithium dendrites is mainly due to defec...
