Problems solved by technology

[0008] Most of the existing mass-produced lithium battery pole piece designs, when using silicon / tin-containing negative electrode materials, or sulfur-containing positive electrode materials, due to the large expansion / contraction of the active material during charging and discharging, repeated volume changes are easy. It causes the pole piece to crack, the material is pulverized, and further falls off from the current collector. At the same time, the SEI film will continue to thicken and consume the electrolyte, resulting in battery capacity attenuation and pole piece deactivation.
Some advanced research also adds a conductive layer or polymer layer on the active material layer, but most of them cannot take into account conformality / inhibition of volume change and sufficient lithium ion transport channels at the same time, or most of the production processes are more complicated

Abstract

The invention relates to an electrode for a lithium battery, a preparation method of the electrode and the lithium battery containing the electrode, and belongs to the technical field of batteries. The electrode for the lithium battery comprises a current collector, an electrochemical active layer arranged on the current collector and a modification layer coating the outer surface of the electrochemical active layer, wherein the material of the electrochemical active layer comprises an electrode active material, and the modification layer is formed by a lithium ion exchange polymer. Accordingto the electrode for the lithium battery, the lithium ion exchange polymer is used as the modification layer to coat the electrochemical active layer, and the modification layer has relatively good conformality for the electrode, so that material pulverization caused by volume change is inhibited to a certain extent, and cracking of a pole piece is inhibited; and meanwhile, the lithium ion exchange capacity can also guarantee the lithium ion transmission rate in the electrochemical process, and the influence of the coating on impedance is reduced.
