Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of batteries, and in particular to a composite solid electrolyte, a preparation method thereof, and a battery. Background Art
[0002] All-solid-state lithium batteries have a long history of research and development. In recent years, new inorganic solid electrolytes with high ionic conductivity are being developed. For example, Li 6.75 La3Zr 1.75 Ta 0.25 O 12 , Li 3.25 Ge 0.25 P 0.75 S4, Li 10 GeP2S 12 showed up to 8.7 × 10 -4 S / cm, 2.2 × 10 -4 S / cm, 1.2 × 10 -2 S / cm of room temperature ionic conductivity. However, the high mechanical strength of inorganic solid electrolytes makes it easy to have hard contact with the lithium metal negative electrode, resulting in a large contact resistance. The researchers then changed their direction and looked for solid electrolytes with closer interface contact with the lithium metal negative electrode. A series of polymer-based solid electrolytes have been developed and applied. Polymers are light, flexible, and have low interface contact impedance with electrodes, which can meet the use requirements of high energy density batteries. However, at room temperature, the ionic conductivity and ion migration number of polymers are very low, which easily leads to the aggregation and polarization of lithium ions, forming lithium dendrites, and easily piercing the polymer electrolyte with low mechanical strength, ultimately leading to battery short circuit failure. In addition, the voltage window of polymer solid electrolytes is generally low, which limits the improvement of battery energy density.
[0003] At this time, researchers have turned to combining the advantages of inorganic solid electrolytes and polymer electrolytes, and have developed a series of organic / inorganic composite solid electrolytes, such as PEO / LLZTO, PEC / LLZTO, and PEG / LATP. Composite solid electrolytes offer the advantages of a wide electrochemical stability window, high ionic conductivity, high mechanical strength, and a good electrode interface, effectively overcoming the disadvantages of single-component solid electrolytes. Therefore, the development of composite solid electrolytes has become a hot topic in future solid electrolyte research.
[0004] Currently, the polymer matrix in composite solid-state electrolytes still suffers from low room-temperature ionic conductivity, which limits the improvement of the ionic conductivity of composite solid-state electrolytes and hinders their large-scale application in the energy storage industry. Therefore, finding a suitable polymer matrix to improve the room-temperature ionic conductivity of composite solid-state electrolytes is an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0008] Furthermore, the plasticizer includes one or more of propylene carbonate, succinonitrile and triethylene glycol dimethyl ether.
[0009] Furthermore, the lithium salt includes one or more of lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide, lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide, lithium tetrafluoroborate, lithium difluorophosphate, lithium difluorooxalatoborate, lithium hexafluorophosphate and lithium perchlorate.

[0011] Furthermore, the mass ratio of the inorganic filler to the polyoxymethylene is 1:10 to 1:30.
[0012] In a second aspect, the present application provides a method for preparing a composite solid electrolyte, the method being used to prepare the composite solid electrolyte according to any one of the first aspects, the method comprising the following steps:
[0013] In an inert gas atmosphere, a lithium salt, polyoxymethylene, a plasticizer, an inorganic filler, and an organic solvent are mixed, wherein the mass ratio of the plasticizer to the polyoxymethylene is 1:50 to 1:4;

[0015] Furthermore, the organic solvent includes one or more of N-methylpyrrolidone, tetrahydrofuran, dichloromethane, acetone and dimethylformamide.

[0018] The present application provides a composite solid electrolyte, a preparation method, and a battery. The composite solid electrolyte comprises a lithium salt, polyoxymethylene, a plasticizer, and an inorganic filler, wherein the mass ratio of the plasticizer to the polyoxymethylene is 1:50 to 1:4. The mass ratio of the plasticizer to the polyoxymethylene can affect the crystallization of the polymer. When the plasticizer content is low, the crystallization of the polyoxymethylene cannot be effectively inhibited, resulting in poor electrolyte ionic conductivity. When the plasticizer content is high, the electrolyte mechanical properties are insufficient. Therefore, an appropriate amount of plasticizer can improve the ionic conductivity of the polyoxymethylene-based electrolyte (the ionic conductivity can reach 1.43 mS / cm) while maintaining good mechanical properties. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] A second aspect of the present application provides a method for preparing a composite solid electrolyte, which is used to prepare any composite solid electrolyte according to the first aspect, and comprises the following steps:
[0030] Under an inert gas atmosphere, lithium salt, polyoxymethylene, plasticizer, inorganic filler and organic solvent are mixed, and the mass ratio of plasticizer to polyoxymethylene is 1:50 to 1:4.
[0031] The mixed liquid is poured into a mold with a polytetrafluoroethylene substrate and vacuum dried to prepare a composite solid electrolyte.

[0102]
[0103] As shown in Table 1, in preparation method (a), the types of lithium salts are preferably lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI) and lithium difluorooxalatoborate (LiDFOB), and the resulting ionic conductivity is higher.
[0104] As shown in Table 2, in the preparation method (a), the stoichiometric ratio of lithium salt to polyoxymethylene structural unit (-CH2O-) (Li + :0) is preferably 1:30 to 1:6. An appropriate amount of lithium salt can promote ion transport in the composite membrane, while an excessive amount of lithium salt will crystallize and aggregate, resulting in obstruction of ion transport.
[0105] As shown in Table 3, in the preparation method (a), the types of plasticizers are preferably propylene carbonate, succinonitrile, and triethylene glycol dimethyl ether.
[0106] As shown in Table 4, in preparation method (a), the mass ratio of plasticizer to polyformaldehyde is preferably 1: 50 to 1: 4. As the mass ratio of plasticizer to polyformaldehyde continues to increase, the crystallization of polyformaldehyde can be effectively suppressed, and the ionic conductivity of the electrolyte continues to improve. However, when the content of the plasticizer is too high, the mechanical properties of the electrolyte significantly decrease. Therefore, an appropriate amount of plasticizer can improve the ionic conductivity of the polyformaldehyde-based electrolyte and simultaneously keep the electrolyte in good mechanical properties.
[0107] As shown in Table 5, in preparation method (a), polyformaldehyde can be compounded with a variety of inorganic fillers to prepare a polyformaldehyde-based composite solid electrolyte.
[0108] As can be seen in Table 6, the preparation methods used in each example in Table 6 differ from those in the other examples described above. Based on the ionic conductivity data, the preparation method using organic solvent mixing is preferred. Compared to ball milling, organic solvents promote entanglement of polymer molecular chains, reduce the formation of grain boundaries within the solid electrolyte, and thus improve the ionic conductivity of the solid electrolyte.
[0109] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit it. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the above embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
