Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of solid electrolyte technology, specifically to a sandwich-structured ceramic-polymer composite electrolyte, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] In the field of new energy, solid-state lithium batteries have become the core development direction of next-generation energy storage technology due to their advantages of high safety and high energy density. The electrolyte, as a key component, directly determines the upper limit of battery performance. Traditional electrolytes are mainly divided into two categories: liquid electrolytes and solid electrolytes. Liquid electrolytes, with their high ionic conductivity (typically 1×10⁻⁶ at room temperature), are... -2 With a density of S / cm or higher and good interfacial compatibility, solid electrolytes are widely used in commercial lithium batteries, and the technology is mature and the cost is controllable. Solid electrolytes (such as ceramic-based and polymer-based electrolytes) can fundamentally solve the safety hazards of liquid electrolytes such as leakage and flammability. They are compatible with high-capacity lithium metal anodes and are the core materials for realizing the industrialization of solid-state lithium batteries. Currently, their application exploration in the fields of power batteries and consumer electronics is continuing to advance, and the market prospects are broad.
[0003] Traditional liquid electrolytes face significant safety and performance bottlenecks: their solvents (such as carbonates) are flammable and volatile, easily triggering thermal runaway under high battery temperatures or overcharge conditions. Furthermore, their reaction with the lithium metal anode generates an unstable SEI film, leading to dendrite growth and short-circuit risks. While solid-state electrolytes offer improved safety, both mainstream systems have limitations: ceramic-based electrolytes (such as LLZO) are mechanically brittle and prone to cracking, and have high interfacial impedance with the electrode; pure polymer electrolytes (such as PEO) have low ionic conductivity (often below 1×10⁻⁶ at room temperature). -5 Solid-state lithium batteries have poor thermal stability (typically starting to lose thermal weight below 200℃), and it is difficult to balance mechanical strength and toughness. They cannot meet the requirements of battery cycle stability and puncture resistance, which restricts the practical application of solid-state lithium batteries. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This invention proposes a sandwich-structured ceramic-polymer composite electrolyte, its preparation method, and its application, aiming to address the shortcomings of existing electrolytes for lithium-ion batteries, such as poor thermal stability, low strength, and poor toughness.

[0006] Furthermore, the thickness of the intermediate layer is 25~40μm; and / or, the thickness of the outer precursor after polymerization is 15~30μm.
[0007] Furthermore, the number-average molecular weight Mn of the first dioxapentane prepolymer and / or the second dioxapentane prepolymer is 60,000 to 70,000 g / mol.

[0010] Furthermore, the first initiator and / or the second initiator are each independently selected from one or more of Al(OTf)3, Sc(OTf)3, Sn(OTf)2, and LiPF6.
[0011] A second aspect of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing the composite electrolyte described in the first aspect above, comprising the steps of: S1. After dispersing the intermediate layer precursor, coating it onto the substrate and evaporating some of the solvent, prepolymerize to obtain the intermediate layer; S2.

[0012] Further, in step S1, the prepolymerization conditions are a vacuum of -0.095 to -0.10 MPa and prepolymerization at 60 to 70°C for 40 to 50 minutes. And / or, in step S2, the deep polymerization conditions are: vacuum degree -0.095~-0.10MPa, polymerization at 70~80℃ for 90~100 min; And / or, in step S3, the deep polymerization conditions are: vacuum degree -0.095~-0.10MPa, polymerization at 70~80℃ for 90~100 min.

[0024] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0025] This invention proposes a sandwich-structured ceramic-polymer composite electrolyte, which is polymerized from an intermediate layer and an outer layer precursor coated on both sides. The intermediate layer is obtained by prepolymerization of an intermediate layer precursor composed of LLZO, LiTFSI, a first dioxapentane prepolymer, and a first initiator. The outer layer precursor includes SiO2, MXene, LiTFSI, a second dioxapentane prepolymer, and a second initiator. A schematic diagram of the sandwich-structured ceramic-polymer composite electrolyte is shown below. Figure 1 As shown.
[0026] The sandwich-structured ceramic-polymer composite electrolyte of this invention uses 1,3-dioxane ring-opening prepolymer products to provide a flexible matrix and a basis for further bonding of the composite structure; it designs an “outer layer (PDOL / SiO2 / MXene)-middle layer (PDOL / LLZO)-outer layer (PDOL / SiO2 / MXene)” structure, in which the middle layer is constructed with LLZO nanoparticles to build a ceramic framework, improving mechanical strength and lithium-ion transport efficiency; the outer layer enhances interfacial bonding with SiO2 and improves thermal conductivity and puncture resistance with MXene, synergistically modifying the structure, while introducing LiTFSI to provide a lithium-ion source, ultimately achieving a balance between thermal stability, mechanical properties and electrochemical performance.
[0027] Specifically, it exhibits the following superior performance: 1. Significantly improved thermal stability Traditional liquid electrolytes typically have a 5% thermal weight loss temperature (T5%) of 120-150℃, while pure PDOL polymer electrolytes have a T5% of only 220℃, and are prone to chain segment degradation at high temperatures. This invention provides a composite electrolyte whose T5% is increased to 270℃ due to the synergistic modification of the outer MXene and SiO2 layers and the supporting effect of the middle LLZO layer, with a thermal weight loss rate of <7% at 150℃. Simultaneously, the glass transition temperature (Tg) is -42℃, significantly enhancing the high-temperature stability of the chain segments and significantly improving the problems of high-temperature flammability and easy failure of traditional electrolytes.
[0028] 2. Synergistic optimization of mechanical properties: strength and toughness
[0029] Traditional ceramic-polymer composite electrolytes often suffer from the defect of being "strong but brittle," with a fracture strength of approximately 8 MPa, an elongation at break of approximately 20%, and a toughness of less than 1 MJ / m. 3 Pure polymer electrolytes have low mechanical strength and cannot withstand lithium dendrite penetration. The sandwich-structured composite electrolyte provided by this invention has a fracture strength of 16 MPa, an elongation at break of 55%, and a calculated toughness of 4.4 MJ / m. 3 It has more than 5 times the energy of pure PDOL electrolyte; and the energy storage modulus retention rate is 75% at 60℃ and more than 70% at room temperature. Its high-temperature mechanical stability far exceeds that of traditional systems, and it can effectively suppress lithium dendrite growth.
[0030] 3. Excellent electrochemical performance
[0031] Traditional polymer electrolytes typically have room-temperature ionic conductivity below 1×10⁻⁶. -5 The Li / electrolyte / Li symmetric battery exhibits poor interfacial stability with the lithium metal anode, and voltage fluctuations easily exceed 100mV after 500 hours of cycling, resulting in a short cycle life. The composite electrolyte provided by this invention achieves a room-temperature ionic conductivity of 2.5 × 10⁻⁶ S / cm. -3 S / cm; Li / / Electrolyte / / Li symmetric cell showed no short circuit after 1000h cycling at 0.1mA / cm², with voltage fluctuation <50mV; LFP / / Li cell achieved 92% capacity retention after 100 cycles at 0.5C, with electrochemical stability and cycle performance far exceeding traditional electrolytes.
[0032] 4. Higher structural and performance stability
[0033] Traditional composite electrolytes often employ simple blending methods, leading to the tendency for ceramic fillers to agglomerate and polymer molecular weight dispersion often exceeding 2.0. This results in poor electrolyte performance repeatability with an error exceeding 15%, failing to meet industrialization requirements. This invention, through precise control of the PDOL polymerization process, combined with layered coating and controlled polymerization, achieves uniform dispersion of LLZO / SiO2 / MXene in the matrix. SEM / EDS analysis shows no significant agglomeration, a clear sandwich structure, and a performance repeatability error of <10%, solving the problems of uneven structure and large batch-to-batch variations in traditional electrolytes.
[0034] In a preferred embodiment, the thickness of the intermediate layer is 25-40 μm; and / or, the thickness of the outer layer formed after the outer layer precursor is polymerized is 15-30 μm.
[0035] In a preferred embodiment, the number-average molecular weight (Mn) of the first and / or second dioxapentane prepolymer is 60,000–70,000 g / mol, and the dispersion is 1.3–1.6. The prepolymer with these parameters is preferably prepared by the following method: DOL monomer and Al(OTf)3 are added at a molar ratio of (1000–1100):(1–2), and an organic solvent is added and stirred until completely dissolved. Polymerization is carried out in an oil bath at 50–60 °C for 6–12 h, under nitrogen protection, at a flow rate of 50–60 mL / min. An organic amine of equal molar amount to Al(OTf)3 is added to terminate the reaction, and the mixture is stirred for 15–20 min. The reaction solution is poured into an excess of organic solvent to precipitate PDOL, and after standing, it is filtered to collect the white solid. The solid is washed with an organic solvent and vacuum dried to obtain the pure PDOL prepolymer with the target number-average molecular weight.
[0036] In a preferred embodiment, the mass ratio of LLZO, LiTFSI and dioxapentane first prepolymer in the intermediate layer precursor is (20~40):(10~20):(80~100); and the mass ratio of SiO2, MXene, LiTFSI and dioxapentane second prepolymer in the outer layer precursor is (1~3):(0.5~2):(10~20):(80~100).
[0037] In a preferred embodiment, the LLZO is a cubic phase with a particle size of 200-500 nm; and / or, the MXene is titanium carbide (Ti3C2T). x Nanosheets with a thickness of 1~5 nm and a diameter of 1~3 μm.
[0038] In a preferred embodiment, the first initiator and / or the second initiator are each independently selected from one or more of Al(OTf)3, Sc(OTf)3, Sn(OTf)2, and LiPF6.
[0039] This invention also proposes a method for preparing a sandwich-structured ceramic-polymer composite electrolyte, comprising the following steps: 1) Preparation of dioxapentane prepolymer Add DOL monomer and Al(OTf)3 at a molar ratio of (1000~1100):(1~2), and add organic solvent while stirring until completely dissolved. Polymerize in an oil bath at 50-60℃ for 6~12 h under nitrogen protection at a flow rate of 50~60 mL / min. Add an organic amine of equal molar amount to Al(OTf)3 to terminate the reaction, and stir for 15~20 min. Pour the reaction solution into excess organic solvent to precipitate PDOL, allow it to stand, filter, and collect the white solid. Wash with organic solvent and vacuum dry to obtain pure PDOL prepolymer with the target number average molecular weight.
[0040] 2) Preparation of intermediate layer precursor (PDOL / LLZO composite system): Weigh the raw materials according to the mass ratio of PDOL:LLZO:LiTFSI = (80~100):(20~40):(10~20), and disperse them after adding an organic solvent. Add an initiator with a concentration of 0.4~0.6mM and stir to obtain a homogeneous intermediate layer precursor.
[0041] 3) Preparation of outer layer precursor (PDOL / SiO2 / MXene composite system)
[0042] Weigh the raw materials according to the mass ratio of PDOL:SiO2:MXene:LiTFSI = (80~100):(1~3):(0.5~2):(10~20), add an organic solvent to disperse, use an ice-water bath to prevent MXene oxidation, and stir to ensure complete exfoliation of MXene sheets without agglomeration. Add an initiator with a concentration of 0.4~0.6mM and stir to obtain the outer layer precursor.
[0043] 4) Intermediate layer coating and prepolymerization
[0044] The intermediate layer precursor is uniformly coated onto a PET substrate using a blade coating method with a blade height of 115-120 μm. The substrate is allowed to stand at room temperature for 15-20 minutes to allow some solvent to evaporate. It is then transferred to a vacuum drying oven and pre-polymerized at 60-70°C for 40-50 minutes (vacuum degree -0.095 to -0.10 MPa) to form a semi-cured intermediate layer with a thickness of approximately 25-40 μm, ensuring shape stability.
[0045] (5) Outer coating and overall polymerization
[0046] First, the outer precursor is coated onto the exposed outer surface of the intermediate layer using a blade coating method with a blade height of 80-85 μm, and allowed to stand at room temperature for 10-20 min. The entire assembly is then transferred to a vacuum drying oven and polymerized at 70-80℃ for 90-100 min under a vacuum of -0.095 to -0.10 MPa to complete PDOL polymerization. Then, the base layer is peeled off, and the above process is repeated to coat the other side with the outer precursor and perform complete polymerization, forming a "outer layer-intermediate layer-outer layer" sandwich structure ceramic-polymer composite electrolyte that combines thermal stability and mechanical compatibility.
[0047] In the above preparation method, the combination of layered coating and controlled polymerization process achieves uniform dispersion of LLZO / SiO2 / MXene in the matrix. SEM / EDS shows no obvious agglomeration, and the sandwich structure is clearly layered with an outer layer thickness of 15-25 μm and an intermediate layer thickness of 25-40 μm.
[0048] In a preferred embodiment, in step (1), the organic solvent is one or more of anhydrous DME, anhydrous diethyl ether, and anhydrous ethanol; and the organic amine is one or more of triethylamine, tri-n-propylamine, and pyridine.
[0049] In a preferred embodiment, in steps (2) and (3), the organic solvent is independently selected from one or more of anhydrous acetonitrile, anhydrous DME, anhydrous THF, and anhydrous MTBE.
[0050] In a preferred embodiment, in steps (2) and (3), the initiator is independently selected from one or more of Al(OTf)3, Sc(OTf)3, Sn(OTf)2, and LiPF6.
[0051] Unless otherwise specified, the raw materials, reagents or devices used in the following embodiments can be obtained from conventional commercial sources or by existing known methods; unless otherwise specified, the methods used in the embodiments of the present invention are methods mastered by those skilled in the art.

The preparation method is as follows: (1) The preparation of PDOL is the same as in Example 1; (2) Preparation of precursor PDOL Weigh the raw materials according to a mass ratio of PDOL:LiTFSI = 100:20, and add anhydrous acetonitrile (solid-liquid ratio 1:6 g / mL). Disperse ultrasonically for 40 min at 300 W and 25 °C. Add Al(OTf)3 at a concentration of 0.4 mM, and stir magnetically for 20 min at 600 rpm to obtain a homogeneous precursor.
[0081] (3) Precursor PDOL coating and polymerization
[0082] The precursor PDOL was uniformly coated onto a PET substrate using a blade coating method with a blade height of 100 μm. The mixture was allowed to stand at room temperature for 15 min to allow some solvent to evaporate. It was then transferred to a vacuum drying oven and vacuum-polymerized at 90°C for 90 min (vacuum degree -0.095 MPa) to form a semi-cured intermediate layer approximately 25 μm thick, ensuring shape stability. After cooling to room temperature, the PET substrate was peeled off to obtain pure PDOL electrolyte.
[0083] Comparative Example 2
[0084] This comparative example uses a single-layer PDOL / LLZO composite electrolyte, without a sandwich structure and without SiO2 or MXene fillers. The difference between this preparation method and Comparative Example 1 is that 30%wt LLZO is added in step (1), while steps (2) and (3) are the same.
[0085] Comparative Example 3
[0086] This comparative example uses a sandwich structure of PDOL / LLZO / PDOL, without SiO2-MXene. The preparation method differs from Example 1 in that SiO2 and MXene are not added to the outer precursor (PDOL / SiO2 / MXene composite system), while the other materials and preparation steps are the same.
[0087] Characterization of sandwich-structured composite electrolytes
[0088] 1) The composite electrolyte obtained in Example 1 was observed using SEM to assess the integrity of the sandwich structure, the uniformity of the outer layer thickness, and the tightness of the interface between the middle and outer layers. Figure 2 As shown, the results indicate that a well-structured sandwich composite electrolyte was successfully prepared. The interface between the middle and outer layers is tightly bonded with no obvious voids, and the sandwich composite structure is intact. The thickness of the outer layer is in the range of 15-25 μm, and the thickness of the middle layer is in the range of 25-40 μm.
[0089] 2) Crystal structure analysis: The XRD pattern of the composite electrolyte obtained in Example 1 is shown below. Figure 3 As shown: characteristic diffraction peaks of cubic LLZO appear at 2θ = 29.3°, 33.9°, and 48.8°, corresponding to the cubic phase Li7La3Zr2O in the PDF standard card. 12 The characteristic peak positions, sharp peak shapes, and lack of shift indicate that LLZO nanoparticles (200-500 nm) maintain a cubic phase structure within the PDOL matrix and exhibit MXene (Ti3C2T) at 2θ≈7.5°-8.5°. xThe characteristic peaks of the 002 plane of MXene are symmetrical and without significant broadening, indicating that the MXene sheets did not undergo severe stacking in the PDOL / SiO2 matrix. Due to the use of surface-hydroxylated SiO2 nanoparticles, the XRD characteristic peaks of 50-100 nm are broadened peaks at 2θ≈21.0°, which are characteristic of amorphous SiO2. The peak intensity is weak but identifiable, indicating that SiO2 is uniformly dispersed in an amorphous state in the outer layer. The appearance of PDOL crystallization diffraction peaks at 2θ≈19° with moderate peak intensity proves that the PDOL polymer was successfully synthesized.
[0090] Performance testing
[0091] Thermal stability test: A thermogravimetric analyzer (nitrogen atmosphere, temperature range 25-600℃, heating rate 10℃ / min) was used to record the temperature at which the sample mass loss was 5% (T5%) and the mass loss rate during the isothermal stage at 150℃.
[0092] Mechanical property testing: A universal testing machine (tensile rate 1 mm / min, sample size 10 mm × 5 mm × 0.1 mm) was used to record the stress (fracture strength) and strain (fracture elongation) at fracture. Toughness was calculated according to "toughness = fracture strength × fracture elongation / 2". Peel strength testing: A universal testing machine (peel rate 5 mm / min, sample size 20 mm × 50 mm) was used to test the interfacial peel force between the outer layer and the intermediate layer, which was then converted into peel strength.
[0093] Electrochemical performance testing: Assembled SS (stainless steel) / / electrolyte / / SS symmetric cells using an electrochemical workstation (frequency range 10). 6 -10 -2 AC impedance (EIS) testing was performed at Hz (amplitude 5mV). Conductivity was calculated using the formula "σ=L / (R×S)" (σ is conductivity, L is electrolyte thickness, R is impedance value, and S is electrode area). Interface stability testing: A Li / / electrolyte / / Li symmetric battery was assembled and cycled for 1000 hours at a current density of 0.1mA / cm² using a battery testing system. The voltage curve fluctuation amplitude was recorded. Battery cycle performance testing: An LFP (lithium iron phosphate) / / electrolyte / / Li full battery was assembled and charged and discharged at a rate of 0.5C (1C=170mAh / g) (voltage range 2.5-4.2V). The capacity retention rate after 100 cycles was recorded.
[0094] The thermal stability test graph of the ceramic-polymer sandwich structure composite electrolyte obtained in Example 1 is shown below. Figure 4 As shown, the stress-strain test results are as follows: Figure 5 As shown, the battery cycle performance test results are as follows: Figure 6 As shown.
[0095] The test results are shown in Table 1:
[0096] It is easy to see from the results in Table 1: 1) Ceramic fillers (LLZO / SiO2 / MXene) are key to improving the thermal stability of electrolytes. Example 1: The T5% (270℃) of the electrolyte is 50℃ higher than that of pure PDOL electrolyte (220℃), and the thermal weight loss rate at 150℃ (<7%) is much lower than that of pure PDOL (>20%), proving that the addition of LLZO, SiO2, and MXene can significantly enhance the heat resistance. Compared with the single-layer PDOL / LLZO (T5%=235℃) and the sandwich without SiO2-MXene (T5%=240℃), the target electrolyte has further optimized thermal stability due to the synergistic effect of the outer layer SiO2 (enhancing the heat resistance of the matrix) and MXene (accelerating heat conduction and inhibiting local overheating), thus improving the defect of "easy degradation at high temperature" of pure polymer electrolyte.
[0097] 2) Breakthrough in mechanical properties achieved through sandwich structure and multi-component synergistic modification
[0098] Example 1: The fracture strength (16 MPa) is 3.2 times that of pure PDOL (<5 MPa) and twice that of monolayer PDOL / LLZO (8 MPa), and the toughness (4.4 MJ / m) is... 3 The strength of the target electrolyte is 2.9-4.4 times that of the other three, which proves that the "ceramic skeleton" effect of the middle layer LLZO and the "two-dimensional reinforcement" effect of the outer layer MXene can effectively improve mechanical strength and puncture resistance. The peel strength of the target electrolyte outer layer (≥3N / m) is 3 times higher than that of the sandwich without SiO2-MXene (<1N / m), indicating that SiO2 can enhance the interfacial bonding force between the outer layer and the middle layer and avoid delamination. Pure PDOL and single-layer structures cannot meet the interfacial stability requirements under complex working conditions due to the lack of outer layer design.
[0099] 3) Layered functional design significantly improves electrochemical performance
[0100] The target electrolyte's room temperature ionic conductivity (2.5 × 10⁻⁶) -3 S / cm) is pure PDOL (<1×10) -4 25 times that of S / cm, and a single layer of PDOL / LLZO (5×10) -4 The efficiency of lithium-ion transport channels is 5 times that of lithium-ion transport channels (S / cm) because the intermediate LLZO layer constructs efficient lithium-ion transport channels and the outer layer modification does not block the channels. The voltage fluctuation of the target electrolyte Li / / Li after 1000h cycling (<50mV) was much lower than that of the comparative example (>80mV), and the capacity retention of the LFP / / Li battery (92%) was higher than that of the comparative example (<80%). This proves that the outer SiO2 / MXene can optimize the interfacial compatibility between the electrolyte and the lithium anode, suppress lithium dendrite growth, and improve the cycle stability of the battery.
[0101] 4) Single component or structural optimization cannot achieve synergistic effects on multiple performance aspects.
[0102] While pure PDOL electrolyte (without ceramic filler) possesses a certain degree of toughness, its thermal stability, mechanical strength, and electrochemical performance are the worst, proving that a single polymer matrix cannot meet the requirements of solid-state lithium batteries. Although single-layer PDOL / LLZO (with only the middle layer modified) and sandwich without SiO2-MXene (lacking outer layer synergy) have improved performance compared to pure PDOL, their thermal stability, interfacial bonding, and electrochemical performance still have shortcomings. Only a sandwich structure of "outer layer (MXene-SiO2) - middle layer (LLZO)" + multi-component synergy can achieve a balance between thermal stability, mechanical properties, and electrochemical performance.
