Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, the dendritic growth of Li is the reason that hinders the widespread application of Li metal anodes.
This dendritic growth of Li metal may lead to two important problems: (1) generation of brittle and heterogeneous solid electrolyte interphase (SEI); (2) loss of electrolyte solution and active Li leading to decreased Coulombic efficiency
However, all these strategies mentioned above are based on the inhibition of dendrite growth by artificial SEI and confinement effects of 3D hosts, seldom considered from the aspects of nucleation and grain growth, while the growth of lithium dendrites is in terms of thermodynamics and kinetics. All are spontaneous; in addition, the non-uniform electric field in the liquid electrolyte solution system is also an important reason for the uneven nucleation of lithium

Abstract

The invention discloses a lithium battery separator, a fabrication method thereof and a lithium battery employing the separator. Nanoparticle capable of solid solution with lithium is used on the battery separator and is used as a heterogeneous nucleation site, good wettability with lithium is achieved, and lithium metal is uniformly nucleated on the modified separator and then is grown in a separator-negative electrode direction. According to the fabrication method, lithium dendrites are not prevented, the lithium growth direction is reversely converted to a direction from a partition plate to a negative electrode from a direction from the negative electrode to the partition plate, the probability that the lithium dendrites penetrate through the separator and a positive electrode to causeshort circuit is prevented, the safety of the lithium battery is greatly improved, and the lithium battery separator has higher capacity retention capability.

Description

【Technical field】 [0001] The invention belongs to the field of energy batteries, and in particular relates to a lithium battery diaphragm, a preparation method thereof, and a lithium battery using the diaphragm. 【Background technique】 [0002] With the rapid development of the economy and the continuous improvement of people's living standards, human demand for energy continues to increase. However, conventional graphite anodes used in commercial Li-ion batteries have a low theoretical capacity (372 mAh g -1 ), so there is an urgent need for anode materials with high energy density to meet the development of emerging high-end energy devices. Because lithium metal has 3860mAh·g -1 The extremely high theoretical capacity, which is more than 11 times higher than that of traditional graphite anodes, is considered to be the "holy grail" material of the anode. [0003] However, dendritic growth of Li is the reason that hinders the widespread application of Li metal anodes. Thi...
