At present, with the rapid promotion and popularization of new energy vehicles, people have also put forward higher requirements on the performance of lithium-ion batteries. At present, energy replenishment anxiety has become one of the key limiting factors restricting the further expansion of the market for new energy vehicles. How to further improve the fast charging capability (fast charging performance) of lithium-ion batteries is an important indicator to solve the above problems.

[0039] The present application is further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments of the present application are only used to illustrate the present application and are not used to limit the scope of the present application.

For numerical ranges, the endpoint values of each range, the endpoint values of each range or the individual point values, and the individual point values can be combined with each other to obtain one or more new numerical ranges, which should be considered as specifically disclosed in this article.
[0041] If there is no special description, all embodiments and optional embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other to form a new technical solution. If there is no special description, all technical features and optional technical features of the present application can be combined with each other to form a new technical solution.
[0042] If there is no special explanation, the "include" and "comprising" mentioned in this application are open-ended or closed-ended. For example, the "include" and "comprising" may mean that other components not listed may also be included or only the listed components may be included or only the listed components may be included.
[0043] The technical solution of this application is completed by the inventor based on the following discovery: Improving battery performance, such as fast charging performance, cycle performance or high temperature performance, is conducive to extending the service life of the battery. Taking lithium-ion batteries as an example,
[0044] At present, in the design of electrolytes, solvents with low viscosity, low freezing point and low boiling point, including carboxylic acid esters, are usually selected to improve the ability of electrolytes to transport lithium ions and improve the fast charging performance of electrolytes. However, such solvents often have poor chemical and electrochemical stability, poor compatibility with the negative electrode interface, and cannot generate stable SEI, resulting in the continuous occurrence of side reactions of the electrolyte at the negative electrode interface, which damages the battery cycle stability and high temperature performance. Functional additives, as one of the main components of battery electrolytes, play a key role in the good electrochemical performance of batteries. Lithium-ion batteries have problems such as poor compatibility between electrolytes and graphite negative electrode interfaces, which cause problems such as poor fast charging performance and cycle performance or high temperature performance of batteries. These problems can be improved by selecting a suitable combination of electrolyte functional additives or coordinating different injection methods. Therefore, how to improve the fast charging performance of the electrolyte while ensuring its excellent compatibility and stability with the electrode interface to better meet people's requirements for the comprehensive performance of lithium-ion batteries is a major challenge facing the current development of electrolytes.
[0045] In view of this, in order to alleviate the problem of insufficient fast charging capability (or poor dynamic performance) of the battery electrolyte system, while taking into account excellent cycle stability and high temperature performance, the present invention optimizes the battery electrolyte formula, under the joint action of a unique combination of multiple components, and cooperates with the operation mode of multiple injections, so that the electrolyte system has both fast charging and interface stability, which is conducive to meeting the electrolyte's requirements for fast charging, circulation, and high-temperature storage performance, and giving the electrolyte excellent comprehensive performance. Next, this application is described in detail.
[0046] In some embodiments, an electrolyte is provided, the electrolyte comprising: a first electrolyte and a second electrolyte;
[0047] The first electrolyte includes a first electrolyte salt, a first organic solvent and a second additive; the second electrolyte includes a second electrolyte salt, a second organic solvent and the first additive.
[0048] The first additive comprises an isocyanate group and a silane group; and the second additive comprises a fluorine-containing phosphate.
[0049] In the present application, the electrolyte may include a first electrolyte and a second electrolyte, wherein the first electrolyte is mainly composed of a first electrolyte salt, a first organic solvent, and a second additive, and the second electrolyte is mainly composed of a second electrolyte salt, a second organic solvent, and the first additive; that is, the first electrolyte may contain the second additive, and the second electrolyte may contain the first additive. The first electrolyte may be used for primary injection, and the second electrolyte may be used for secondary injection.
[0050] In the first electrolyte and the second electrolyte, the first electrolyte salt and the second electrolyte salt may be lithium salts, which may be used to participate in the electrochemical reaction, and the first organic solvent and the second organic solvent may be used to dissolve the first electrolyte salt and the second electrolyte salt. In particular, the composite functional additive scheme and the secondary injection method of the present invention can greatly improve the kinetic performance of the electrolyte under fast charging conditions, while ensuring that it has excellent cycle life and high temperature stability.
[0051] In the electrolyte of the present application, the first additive and the second additive can play a synergistic role with each other, which can alleviate the problem that the existing electrolyte cannot take into account the fast charging, long cycle and high temperature performance. Among them, the compound containing isocyanate group and silane group is used as the first additive, which can not only remove the acidic substances in the electrolyte, avoid the instability of the carboxylate solvent itself caused by the increase in electrolyte acidity, and the corrosion of the interface, but also participate in the formation of the interface film and improve the interface stability; at the same time, the fluorine-containing phosphate is introduced as the second additive. The presence of the fluorophosphate group in the second additive can generate fluorine-containing and phosphorus-containing inorganic substances at the interface, which have high ion conductivity and high surface energy, can reduce the transmission impedance and charge transfer impedance of lithium ions at the interface, and can overcome the side effect of the impedance increase brought by the first additive. Thus, this composite scheme can play a certain role in taking into account the fast charging and interface stability of the electrolyte.
[0052] In the present application, although compounding the first additive and the second additive can play a certain improvement role, since the first additive is often accompanied by an increase in interface impedance while improving interface stability, the inventors of the present application have discovered through research and further proposed a secondary injection method, that is, by using the first electrolyte and the second electrolyte in combination, and at the same time cooperating with the secondary injection operation method, such as using the first electrolyte containing the second additive for injection during the first injection, and using the second electrolyte containing the first additive for injection during the second injection, the above-mentioned problem can be effectively alleviated.
[0053] Thus, the provided electrolyte can be used for secondary injection of the battery, which means that the battery is injected with electrolyte twice, and the formation operation is performed during the two injections; the first electrolyte can be used for the first injection, and the second electrolyte can be used for the second injection. That is, the electrolyte includes the first electrolyte used for the first injection and the second electrolyte used for the second injection.
[0054] In detail: a compound containing isocyanate groups and silane groups is used as the first additive. The isocyanate groups and silane groups in the first additive can remove trace water or other acidic substances in the electrolyte to eliminate their side effects such as corrosion on the interface. At the same time, the isocyanate groups can react at the negative electrode interface to generate an organic polymer protective layer containing nitrogen and oxygen elements, which can further inhibit the occurrence of interfacial side reactions and improve interfacial stability, but is often accompanied by an increase in interfacial impedance; therefore, in order to overcome its shortcomings, the present invention introduces a secondary injection method, and adds it during the secondary injection after formation to overcome its influence on the initial internal resistance; that is, using the second electrolyte containing the first additive for injection during the secondary injection can not only help improve the interface stability, but also alleviate the influence of the first additive on the initial internal resistance. In addition, a fluorine-containing phosphate is introduced as a second additive, and the first electrolyte containing the second additive is used for injection during the first injection. The presence of the fluorine-containing phosphate group in the second additive can generate fluorine-containing and phosphorus-containing inorganic substances at the interface, which have high ion conductivity and high surface energy, can reduce the transmission impedance and charge transfer impedance of lithium ions at the interface, and can inhibit the film-forming consumption of the first additive during the entire life cycle of the battery. Therefore, the secondary injection of the present application, the composite solution of the first additive and the second additive, can effectively take into account the fast charging and interface stability of the electrolyte, and is conducive to improving the fast charging performance, cycle stability and high temperature performance of the electrolyte at the same time, giving the electrolyte excellent comprehensive performance.
[0055] Therefore, the electrolyte provided in the present application has a simple formula and is easy to prepare. When the electrolyte is used in a secondary battery (such as a lithium-ion battery), it can effectively improve the battery's fast charging performance (or dynamic performance), cycle performance and high temperature performance, thereby obtaining better overall performance and improving the battery's performance and life.
[0056] In a specific embodiment of the present invention, at least one or more of the following conditions are met:
[0057] In the present application, the first additive includes an isocyanate-containing silyl compound, and the structural formula of the isocyanate-containing silyl compound is shown in the following formula I:
[0058]
[0059] Among them, R1 is selected from substituted or unsubstituted C0~C4 alkyl, and R2, R3, and R4 are each independently selected from substituted or unsubstituted C1~C4 alkyl, substituted or unsubstituted C1~C4 alkoxy, substituted or unsubstituted C1~C4 isocyanate, substituted or unsubstituted C2~C4 alkenyl, substituted or unsubstituted C1~C4 haloalkyl, substituted or unsubstituted C1~C4 haloalkoxy, and substituted or unsubstituted C2~C4 haloalkenyl.
[0060] In the present application, the term "substituted" means that at least one hydrogen atom of the compound or chemical moiety is replaced by another chemical moiety. Among them, in R1, R2, R3, and R4, the substituents used to replace alkyl, alkoxy, isocyanate, alkenyl, haloalkyl, haloalkoxy, haloalkenyl, etc. can be independently selected from hydroxyl, sulfhydryl, amino, cyano, nitro, aldehyde, alkynyl, aryl, heteroaryl, etc., and the present application does not limit the substituents.
[0061] Preferably, the halogen element in the haloalkyl, haloalkoxy or haloalkenyl group may be selected from one or more of F, Cl and Br. Preferably, the halogen element in the haloalkyl, haloalkoxy or haloalkenyl group may be selected from F. That is, the haloalkyl, haloalkoxy or haloalkenyl group is preferably a fluoroalkyl, fluoroalkoxy or fluoroalkenyl group.
[0062] Exemplarily, the isocyanate silyl compound is selected from at least one of the compounds represented by the following structural formulas S1-S9:
[0063]
[0064] Preferably, the isocyanate silyl compound is selected from at least one of the compounds represented by the structural formulas S1, S2, S3, S7 and S9.
[0065] It should be understood that the above S1-S9 exemplarily list several isocyanate-containing silyl compounds, but the present application is not limited thereto. When the above formula I is satisfied, the isocyanate-containing silyl compounds may have more options, which are not listed one by one here.
[0066] In some embodiments, the second additive includes, but is not limited to, any one or a combination of at least two of lithium difluorophosphate (LiPO2F2), lithium tetrafluorooxalate phosphate (LiOTFP), lithium difluorooxalate phosphate (LiODFP), etc. For the sake of brevity, the combinations within the above range are no longer listed one by one.
[0067] By including the above-mentioned fluorine-containing phosphates in the electrolyte, the fast charging performance, cycle performance and high temperature performance of the battery can be effectively improved, thereby obtaining better overall performance and improving the battery's performance and life.
[0068] It should be understood that different first additives and second additives may have certain effects on the comprehensive performance of the lithium battery. In practical applications, the first additive and the second additive may be flexibly selected according to actual needs.
[0069] In some embodiments, based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass proportion of the first additive is W1, the mass proportion of the second additive is W2, and W1 and W2 satisfy: 0.01%≤W2≤W1≤5%.
[0070] In the present application, the mass fraction of the first additive to the total mass of the electrolyte is W1, the mass fraction of the second additive to the total mass of the electrolyte is W2, and the relationship between the two satisfies 0.01%≤W2≤W1≤5%.
[0071] By controlling the mass ratio of the first additive and the second additive within the above range, it is beneficial to exert the synergistic effect of the two, so that the two can play their respective advantages and interact with each other to make up for their respective deficiencies, thereby achieving a better overall effect. Using them in the electrolyte of secondary batteries can further enable the battery to have better cycle performance, fast charging performance and high temperature performance, thereby enabling the battery to obtain better overall performance.
[0072] In some embodiments, the mass proportion of the second additive in the first electrolyte is 0.01% to 10%. As an example, the mass proportion of the second additive in the first electrolyte can be 0.01%, 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.5%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 5%, 6%, 8%, 10%, or a range consisting of any two of the above values.
[0073] By regulating the concentration of the second additive within the above range, fluorine-containing and phosphorus-containing inorganic substances can be generated at the interface. By utilizing its high ion conductivity and high surface energy, the transmission impedance and charge transfer impedance of lithium ions at the interface can be reduced, and the film-forming consumption of the first additive during the entire life cycle of the battery can be suppressed. By controlling the mass proportion of the second additive to meet the above range, the electrolyte additive can achieve a better improvement effect at a lower dosage, thereby enabling the battery to have better fast charging performance, cycle performance and high temperature performance, and obtain better overall performance.
[0074] In some embodiments, the mass proportion of the first additive in the second electrolyte is 0.01% to 15%. As an example, the mass proportion of the first additive in the second electrolyte can be 0.01%, 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.5%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 5%, 6%, 8%, 10%, 12%, 13%, 14%, 15%, or a range consisting of any two of the above values.
[0075] By regulating the concentration of the first additive within the above range, the occurrence of interfacial side reactions can be suppressed and the interface stability can be improved; and by controlling the mass proportion of the first additive to meet the above range, the electrolyte additive can play a better improvement effect on the basis of a lower dosage, thereby enabling the battery to have better fast charging performance, cycle performance and high temperature performance, and obtain better overall performance.
[0076] In some embodiments, based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass proportion of the second electrolyte is 10% to 30%. That is, the amount of electrolyte injected in the secondary injection step accounts for 10% to 30% of the total mass of the electrolyte injected. As an example, the mass proportion of the second electrolyte can be 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30% or a range composed of any two of the above values.
[0077] In some embodiments, based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass proportion of the first electrolyte is 70% to 90%. That is, the amount of electrolyte injected in one injection step accounts for 70% to 90% of the total mass of the electrolyte injected. As an example, the mass proportion of the first electrolyte can be 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90% or a range consisting of any two of the above values.
[0078] By controlling the mass ratio of the first electrolyte and the second electrolyte within the above range, it is helpful to fully form the film and enable the additives to play a better improvement effect, thereby ensuring battery performance.
[0079] Optionally, after the second liquid injection is completed, the total amount of the first electrolyte and the second electrolyte in the battery is 1 to 5 g / Ah, preferably 1.5 to 4 g / Ah; for example, it can be 1g / Ah, 1.5g / Ah, 2g / Ah, 2.5g / Ah, 3g / Ah, 3.5g / Ah, 4g / Ah, 5g / Ah, etc., of course, it can also be other values within the above range, which is not limited here.
[0080] In the present application, the compositions of the first electrolyte and the second electrolyte are different, in particular, the types of additives in the first electrolyte and the second electrolyte are different, that is, the difference between the first electrolyte and the second electrolyte mainly lies in the types of additives, and the first electrolyte and the second electrolyte must adjust and change the types and components of their additives, while the electrolyte salts such as lithium salts and organic solvents in the first electrolyte and the second electrolyte may be the same, or may be different, and are preferably the same.
[0081] In some embodiments, the first electrolyte salt can be a lithium salt, such as a lithium salt including, but not limited to, any one of lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF6), lithium tetrafluoroborate (LiBF4), lithium difluorooxalatoborate (LiDFOB), lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (LiFSI), lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI), lithium hexafluoroarsenate (LiAsF6) or lithium perchlorate (LiClO4) or a combination of at least two thereof. For the sake of brevity, the combinations within the above range are not listed one by one.
[0082] In some embodiments, the second electrolyte salt can be a lithium salt, such as a lithium salt including, but not limited to, any one of lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF6), lithium tetrafluoroborate (LiBF4), lithium difluorooxalatoborate (LiDFOB), lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (LiFSI), lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI), lithium hexafluoroarsenate (LiAsF6) or lithium perchlorate (LiClO4) or a combination of at least two thereof. For the sake of brevity, the combinations within the above range are not listed one by one.
[0083] In the present application, the first electrolyte lithium salt and the second electrolyte salt may be of the same type; in addition, the present application is not limited to these lithium salts, and the present application may also use other traditional or new materials that can be used as lithium salts in battery electrolytes. These lithium salts may be used alone or in combination of two or more.
[0084] In some embodiments, based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the sum of the mass of the first electrolyte salt and the second electrolyte salt accounts for 6% to 23%, preferably 6.5% to 22.5%. As an example, the sum of the mass of the first electrolyte salt and the second electrolyte salt can account for 6%, 6.5%, 7%, 8%, 10%, 12%, 15%, 5%, 18%, 20%, 22%, 22.5%, 23%, or any two of the above values.
[0085] In one embodiment, the mass of the lithium salt (the first electrolyte salt and the second electrolyte salt) accounts for 6.5% to 22.5% of the total mass of the electrolyte, that is, each gram of the electrolyte includes 0.065 g to 0.225 g of the lithium salt.
[0086] By controlling the concentration of lithium salt within the above range, the viscosity and conductivity of the electrolyte can reach a relative balance value, avoiding excessively high viscosity affecting the transmission of lithium ions during the cycle, or avoiding excessively low concentration of active ions causing a decrease in conductivity or affecting the capacity of the battery.
[0087] In some embodiments, the first organic solvent and the second organic solvent include carbonate and / or carboxylate, respectively. That is, the first organic solvent may include carbonate, may include carboxylate, may include carbonate and carboxylate; the second organic solvent may include carbonate, may include carboxylate, may include carbonate and carboxylate.
[0088] Preferably, the first organic solvent comprises carbonate ester and carboxylic acid ester; and the second organic solvent comprises carbonate ester and carboxylic acid ester.
[0089] In some embodiments, the carboxylic acid ester includes, but is not limited to, any one or a combination of at least two of methyl acetate (MA), ethyl formate (EF), ethyl acetate (EA), methyl propionate (MP), ethyl propionate (EP), methyl butyrate (MB), and ethyl butyrate (EB). For the sake of brevity, the combinations within the above range are no longer listed one by one.
[0090] In some embodiments, the carbonate includes, but is not limited to, any one or a combination of at least two of ethylene carbonate (EC), propylene carbonate (PC), vinylene carbonate (VC), vinyl ethylene carbonate (VEC), fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC), dimethyl carbonate (DMC), diethyl carbonate (DEC), and ethyl methyl carbonate (EMC). For the sake of brevity, the combinations within the above range are no longer listed one by one.
[0091] In the present application, the first organic solvent and the second organic solvent may be of the same type, or may be of different types, preferably of the same type. In addition, the present application is not limited to these solvents, and other traditional or new materials that can be used as solvents in battery electrolytes may also be used in the present application. These solvents may be used alone or in combination of two or more.
[0092] In some embodiments, based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the sum of the mass of the first organic solvent and the second organic solvent accounts for 70% to 85%. As an example, the sum of the mass of the first organic solvent and the second organic solvent may account for 70%, 72%, 75%, 78%, 80%, 82%, 85%, or any two of the above values.
[0093] In the present application, the mass of the non-aqueous solvent (organic solvent, namely the first organic solvent and the second organic solvent) accounts for 70% to 85% of the total mass of the electrolyte, that is, each gram of the electrolyte includes 0.70 g to 0.85 g of solvent.
[0094] In this way, lithium-ion batteries can have good fast charging performance, cycle performance and high temperature performance, and obtain better overall performance.
[0095] It should be noted that, in any of the above embodiments, based on the total mass of the electrolyte being 100%, the sum of the mass fractions of the organic solvent, the electrolyte salt such as lithium salt, and the additive does not exceed 100%.
[0096] Therefore, based on the above settings, the isocyanate group and the silane group in the first additive have the ability to remove trace water or other acidic substances in the electrolyte. Especially under high temperature conditions, the high-temperature decomposition of lithium salts and additives in the electrolyte can produce acidic substances, resulting in an increase in the acidity of the electrolyte, thereby aggravating the corrosion interface and further leading to the dissolution of positive electrode metal ions. The dissolved metal ions can be deposited at the negative electrode interface, aggravating the side reaction consumption of the electrolyte, causing the interface film to thicken and the structure to become looser. The presence of the first additive can eliminate the side effects of acidic substances on the interface at high temperatures, such as corrosion, and inhibit the dissolution of positive electrode metal ions. The isocyanate group can be deposited at the negative electrode interface. The first additive and the second additive react at the interface to form an organic polymer protective layer containing nitrogen and oxygen elements, which can further reduce the occurrence of side reactions on the interface and improve the interface stability. At the same time, the introduction of the secondary injection method can eliminate the influence of the first additive on the initial film-forming impedance to a certain extent; in addition, the presence of the fluorophosphate group in the second additive can generate fluorine-containing and phosphorus-containing inorganic substances at the interface, which have high ion conductivity and high surface energy, can reduce the transmission impedance and charge transfer impedance of lithium ions at the interface, and can inhibit the film-forming consumption of the first additive during the entire life cycle of the battery, while overcoming the side effect of increased impedance brought by the first additive, and can further improve the interface. The composite scheme of the first additive and the second additive of the present application can effectively take into account the fast charging and interface stability of the electrolyte.

[0182]
[0183] Performance Testing
[0184] The batteries prepared in Examples 1-14 and Comparative Examples 1-4 were subjected to performance tests such as cycle performance, rate performance (fast charging capability), and high temperature performance. The specific test methods are as follows:
[0185] (1) Rate discharge performance test: At 25°C, the cells of Examples 1 to 14 and Comparative Examples 1 to 4 were first discharged to 2.0V at a constant current of 1 / 3C, then charged to 3.75V at a constant current of 1C, then charged to a current of 0.05C at a constant voltage, and the discharge capacity was recorded as C1, and then discharged to 2.0V at a constant current of 5C, and the discharge capacity was recorded as C2. The ratio of the 5C discharge capacity to the 1 / 3C discharge capacity is the rate discharge capacity retention rate, that is, the rate discharge capacity retention rate = C2 / C1. The test results can reflect the rate discharge performance of the battery. The higher the value of the capacity retention rate, the better the battery rate performance.
[0186] (2) 25°C cycle performance test: At 25°C, the battery cells of Examples 1 to 14 and Comparative Examples 1 to 4 were first discharged at a constant current of 1C to 2.0V and then subjected to a cycle test. The test process is to first charge to 3.75V at a constant current of 1C, then charge at a constant voltage to a current of 0.05C, and then discharge to 2.0V at a constant current of 1C, cycle charge / discharge, and calculate the capacity retention rate of the battery after 1000 cycles, that is, compared with the initial capacity, after the battery has undergone the above cycles, the ratio of the retained capacity of the battery to the initial capacity, that is, the capacity retention rate (%) of 1000 cycles at 1C at 25°C = retained capacity / initial capacity. This parameter can provide feedback on the cycle performance of the battery. The higher the value of the capacity retention rate, the better the battery cycle performance of this embodiment.
[0187] (3) 60°C storage test: At 25°C, the cells of Examples 1 to 14 and Comparative Examples 1 to 4 were first discharged at 1C constant current to 2.0V, then charged at 1C constant current to 3.75V, then charged at constant voltage to a current of 0.05C, and then discharged at 1C constant current to 2.0V, the discharge capacity was recorded as C3, and the battery thickness was recorded as D1. The cells were then charged at 1C constant current to 3.75V, and then charged at constant voltage to a current of 0.05C. The battery cell was placed in a 60°C oven for storage for 30 days. The thickness of the battery tested in the oven was recorded as D2. Then it was placed at room temperature, first discharged to 2.0V at 1C constant current, then charged to 3.75V at 1C constant current, then charged at constant voltage to a current of 0.05C, and then discharged to 2.0V at 1C constant current, and the discharge capacity was recorded as C4. The capacity retention rate after 60 days of storage at 60°C = C4 / C3, and the battery thickness expansion rate = (D2-D1) / D1. This test can provide feedback on the high-temperature storage performance of the battery. The higher the capacity retention rate and the smaller the battery thickness expansion rate, the better the high-temperature storage performance of the battery under this embodiment.
[0188] The test results are shown in Table 2.
[0189] Table 2
[0190]
[0191]
[0192] It can be seen from the data in Table 2 that, compared with Comparative Examples 1-4, the lithium batteries provided by Examples 1-14 of the present invention have better cycle performance, better rate performance (fast charging capability), and better high temperature storage performance.
[0193] Specifically, through the comparison between Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1-4, it can be seen that in the secondary injection method of the battery, the combination of the first additive and the second additive can effectively improve the kinetic performance of the electrolyte, as well as the cycle and high-temperature storage performance. The first additive S2 and other isocyanate-containing silane compounds can remove acidic substances in the electrolyte, prevent its corrosion to the interface, inhibit the dissolution of positive electrode metal ions, and prevent its crosstalk to the negative electrode interface. At the same time, a polymer interface containing nitrogen oxides can be generated at the interface to further improve the interface stability. Adding it to the secondary injection can overcome the impact on the initial impedance and further improve the fast charging performance of the battery. The presence of fluorophosphate groups in the second additive can generate fluorine-containing and phosphorus-containing inorganic substances at the interface, which have high ion conductivity and high surface energy, can reduce the transmission impedance and charge transfer impedance of lithium ions at the interface, and at the same time play a role in inhibiting the rapid consumption of the first additive, thereby overcoming the side effect of increased impedance brought about by the first additive.
[0194] By comparing Example 2 with Example 1, it can be seen that the content of the first additive S2 is increased, the kinetic performance of the electrolyte is slightly reduced, but the cycle and high-temperature storage performance are improved, and the overall performance is better than that of Comparative Examples 1-4. By comparing Example 3 with Example 1, it can be seen that the content of the first additive S2 is reduced, the kinetic performance of the electrolyte is improved, and the high-temperature storage is slightly deteriorated, but the overall performance is better than that of Comparative Examples 1-4.
[0195] By comparing Example 4 with Example 1, it can be seen that the content of the second additive LiPO2F2 is reduced, and the high temperature storage performance of the electrolyte is slightly reduced, but the overall performance is better than that of Comparative Examples 1-4. By comparing Example 5 with Example 1, it can be seen that the content of the second additive LiPO2F2 is increased, the circulation and rate performance of the electrolyte are slightly improved, and the overall performance is better than that of Comparative Examples 1-4.
[0196] By comparing Example 6 with Example 1, it can be seen that the second additive uses LiODFP instead of LiPO2F2, the battery dynamics and cycle performance are not much different, the high-temperature storage gas production is slightly deteriorated, but the overall performance is better than that of Comparative Examples 1-4.
[0197] By comparing Example 7 with Example 1, it can be seen that the first additive is replaced by S1 instead of S2, and the performance of the battery such as dynamics and cycle performance is not much different, and the overall performance is better than that of Comparative Examples 1-4. By comparing Example 8 with Example 1, it can be seen that the first additive is replaced by S9 instead of S2, the high temperature storage performance of the battery is improved, the power performance is slightly deteriorated, and the overall performance is better than that of Comparative Examples 1-4.
[0198] By comparing Example 9 with Example 1, it can be seen that the battery kinetic performance is improved by replacing EA with MA, and the high-temperature storage performance is deteriorated, but the overall performance is better than that of Comparative Examples 1-4. By comparing Example 10 with Example 1, it can be seen that the battery cycle and high-temperature storage performance are improved by replacing EA with EP, and the overall performance is better than that of Comparative Examples 1-4.
[0199] By comparing Example 11 with Example 1, it can be seen that the battery kinetic performance is slightly deteriorated by replacing LiFSI with LiPF6, and the cycle and high-temperature storage are improved, but the overall performance is better than that of Comparative Examples 1-4. By comparing Example 12 with Example 1, it can be seen that the battery kinetic performance is improved by replacing LiPF6 with LiFSI, and the high-temperature storage is deteriorated, but the overall performance is better than that of Comparative Examples 1-4.
[0200] By comparing Example 13 with Example 1, it can be seen that when the content of the secondary injection electrolyte increases to 20%, the electrolyte performance is not much different, and the comprehensive performance is better than that of Comparative Examples 1-4. By comparing Example 14 with Example 1, it can be seen that when the content of the secondary injection electrolyte increases to 30%, the electrolyte rate and storage performance are slightly reduced, but the comprehensive performance is better than that of Comparative Examples 1-4.
