Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium ion batteries, and in particular relates to a high-voltage resistant solvent, a high-voltage resistant electrolyte and applications. Background Art

[0002] Traditional lithium battery electrolytes are composed of solvents, lithium salts and additives. Under high-voltage systems, some components of the electrolyte are unstable and easy to decompose. They continue to react at the electrode-electrolyte interface, consume active lithium, and cause battery capacity decay. Battery decay is more serious under high temperatures. Under high voltage, the positive electrode interface problem is a key factor affecting battery performance.

[0003] To solve the above problems, high-voltage resistant solvents are usually added when designing the electrolyte. Commonly used high-voltage resistant solvents include nitrile solvents, sulfone solvents, ionic liquids, etc. Nitrile and sulfone solvents have poor compatibility with the negative electrode and increase the risk of negative electrode impedance. Ionic liquids have high viscosity and high price, and are relatively less used. Summary of the invention

The regulation of the solvent on the interface reduces the generation of protons H by the oxidation of the solvent at the positive electrode, and inhibits the reduction of protons H generated by the decomposition of the solvent at the negative electrode, thereby reducing the gas production of the battery and improving the safety performance of the battery.

The organic-inorganic composite interface has stronger oxidation resistance, which inhibits the continuous growth of membrane impedance and further improves the long cycle performance.

[0051] In addition, the present invention introduces DMC into the electrolyte to take into account both high-voltage oxidation stability and low viscosity, which can effectively reduce the viscosity of the electrolyte, improve electrode wettability, reduce battery polarization, and reduce lithium plating.

[0052] In order to further illustrate the present invention, a high-voltage resistant solvent, a high-voltage resistant electrolyte and applications provided by the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with embodiments, but it should not be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0070] Battery Test

[0071] 1. Cycle test

[0072] The Xinwei test program is set up as follows: at a certain temperature, the battery is charged at a constant current of 0.5C to a charge cut-off voltage of 4.85V, then charged at a constant voltage until the current drops to 0.05C, and then discharged at a constant current of 1C to 3.0V to obtain the capacity retention rate of different formulas.

[0080] The test results are shown in Table 2.

[0081] Table 2 Performance test data of batteries in embodiments and comparative examples

[0082]

[0083] It can be seen from the results of the examples and comparative examples that the sulfonamide-modified 2,5-dioxadipic acid dimethyl ester high-voltage electrolyte solvent provided in this patent shows better high-voltage cycle stability than 2,5-dioxadipic acid dimethyl ester, and the normal temperature and high temperature cycles are significantly improved. The introduction of the sulfonamide group regulates the composition of the positive and negative electrode interface film, reduces the oxidation of the solvent under high pressure and the reduction on the negative electrode surface, thereby reducing gas production.

[0084] From the results of Example 6 and Comparative Example 3, it can be seen that the introduction of sulfonic acid amine improves the dissociation ability of lithium salts, improves the conductivity of the electrolyte, and improves the low-temperature discharge performance while increasing the oxidation potential of the solvent. Compared with DMDOHD with sulfonamide additives, the introduction of functional groups can increase the concentration of effective groups and improve the cycle performance. From the results of Example 6 and Comparative Examples 4 and 5, it can be seen that compared with other modified 2,5-dioxadipic acid dimethyl ester solvents, the sulfonamide-modified solvent is more effective in improving battery circulation and inhibiting battery gas production, which can greatly improve the safety of high-temperature operation of the battery.

[0085] It can be seen from the results of Examples 6, 7, 8 and 9 that the shorter the sulfonamide substituent, the better the high pressure performance.

[0086] By comparing Example 6 with Example 10, Example 11 and Example 12, it is found that the high-pressure solvent is used in combination with a fluorinated solvent and a positive electrode film-forming additive to form an inorganic interface film component rich in L3N, L2S, and LiF and a fluorinated polymer organic component. By regulating the positive electrode film-forming additive, the fluorinated polymer content is optimized and the organic components such as polyphosphazene and BOB are increased. The organic-inorganic composite interface has stronger oxidation resistance, which inhibits the continuous growth of membrane impedance, improves the cycle coulomb efficiency, and further improves the long cycle performance.

[0089] From the low temperature performance of the batteries in Examples 5 and 6, it can be seen that DMC has higher oxidation stability than other linear carbonates, and can reduce electrolyte viscosity, improve electrode wetting, and reduce battery polarization while improving the high voltage performance of the battery.

[0090] By comparing Example 5, Example 6, Example 7, Example 8, Example 9 and Comparative Example 6, it is found that the solvent can improve the high-voltage performance compared with the fluorocarbonate, indicating that the modified solvent can form a more stable SEI and CEI film, inhibit the circulation and storage side reactions. It also has higher conductivity and improves low-temperature performance.

[0091] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present invention.
