Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of lithium - ion batteries, and particularly relates to a negative electrode sheet treatment liquid, a surface - modified negative electrode sheet, and a lithium - ion battery. Background Art
[0002] During the first charge - discharge process of a lithium - ion battery, part of the electrolyte reacts at the negative electrode of the battery and combines with the lithium ions released from the positive electrode to form a solid electrolyte interface (SEI) film. The formation of the SEI film consumes lithium in the battery, converting lithium into inactive lithium - containing compounds, thereby causing a loss of reversible lithium, reducing the first - cycle efficiency and discharge capacity of the battery.
[0003] To compensate for the lithium loss caused by the formation of the SEI film during the first charge, the existing method is to add inert lithium powder to the negative electrode sheet of the battery to make up for the lithium loss during the first charge. However, this method cannot ensure the uniform distribution of lithium powder in the electrode sheet, resulting in local lithium residues in the electrode sheet, which is likely to cause a short - circuit of the battery, posing a serious safety hazard to the manufactured lithium battery; and using inert lithium powder for lithium compensation will cause inert substances to remain on the electrode surface, increasing the battery impedance and degrading the battery performance. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new negative electrode treatment method to reduce the lithium loss caused by the formation of the SEI film in the battery. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In view of this, the present application provides a negative electrode sheet treatment liquid, which can form a protective layer on the surface of the negative electrode sheet.

[0035] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present application.
[0036] The core components of a lithium secondary battery include a positive electrode sheet, a negative electrode sheet, an electrolyte, a separator, and corresponding connecting accessories and circuits. During charging, lithium ions escape from the lattice of the positive electrode sheet, pass through the electrolyte, and deposit on the negative electrode sheet; during discharging, lithium ions escape from the negative electrode sheet, pass through the electrolyte, and are inserted into the lattice of the positive electrode sheet. However, during the first charging process of the lithium secondary battery, part of the electrolyte will undergo a reduction reaction on the surface of the negative electrode sheet, and at the same time combine with the lithium ions escaping from the positive electrode sheet to form a solid electrolyte interface film (SEI film). The formation of the SEI film will consume the active lithium in the battery, convert the active lithium into an inactive lithium-containing compound, thereby causing a loss of reversible lithium and reducing the first efficiency and discharge capacity of the battery. To reduce the side reaction between the electrolyte and the negative electrode sheet, reduce the lithium loss caused by the formation of the SEI film in the battery, and improve the battery capacity and Coulomb efficiency, the embodiments of the present application provide a negative electrode sheet treatment liquid. Treating the negative electrode sheet with this negative electrode sheet treatment liquid can form a protective layer on the surface of the negative electrode sheet. This protective layer can react with the electrolyte to form an interface film similar to the SEI film, thereby isolating the electrolyte from the negative electrode sheet, and reducing the amount of SEI film generated during the first charging of the battery, thereby reducing the loss of active lithium in the battery and improving the comprehensive performance of the battery.
[0037] The negative electrode sheet treatment liquid provided by the present application includes an organic solvent and an additive. In some embodiments of the present application, the additive includes a first additive with a structural formula as shown in formula (I): Formula (I), in formula (I), R1 and R2 are each independently selected from any one of alkylene, alkenylene, alkynylene, arylene or methylene silyl, and X1 is selected from O or S. In the embodiments of the present application, R1 and R2 can be the same or different groups. In some embodiments of the present application, R1 and / or R2 is arylene. When R1 and / or R2 is arylene, the interfacial film similar to the SEI film formed by the first additive is thinner and has lower impedance. In the embodiments of the present application, the carbon atom numbers of R1 and R2 are 1-20. Further, the carbon atom numbers of R1 and R2 can be 1-10. The carbon atom numbers of R1 and R2 can specifically be, but are not limited to, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 15 or 20.
[0038] In some embodiments of the present application, the additive includes a second additive with a structural formula as shown in formula (II): Formula (II), in formula (II), R3 is selected from any one of sub-alkyl, sub-alkenyl, sub-alkynyl, sub-arylene or sub-methylene silyl, R4 and R5 are each independently selected from any one of alkylene, alkenylene, alkynylene or arylene, and X2 and X3 are each independently selected from O or S. In the embodiments of the present application, R4 and R5 can be the same or different groups. In some embodiments of the present application, R4 and / or R5 is arylene. When R4 and / or R5 is arylene, the interfacial film similar to the SEI film formed by the second additive is thinner and has lower impedance.

The carbon atom numbers of R3, R4 and R5 can specifically be, but are not limited to, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 15 or 20.
[0039] In a lithium secondary battery, the content of moisture will affect the comprehensive performance of the lithium secondary battery. For example, water will react with the electrolyte (LiPF6) of the lithium secondary battery to generate hydrofluoric acid (HF). The reaction equation is H2O + LiPF6 → LiF + 2HF↑ + POF3. Since HF has strong corrosiveness, hydrofluoric acid will dissolve the positive electrode material of the battery and form deposits on the surface of the negative electrode sheet of the battery, thereby affecting the formation of the SEI film on the negative electrode sheet or damaging the SEI film formed on the negative electrode sheet, increasing the interfacial impedance and reducing the safety performance of the battery. However, in the existing lithium secondary battery production process, the negative electrode sheet of the battery always contains a certain amount of moisture, which in turn affects the comprehensive performance of the battery. The negative electrode sheet treatment liquid provided by the present application can remove the moisture in the negative electrode sheet and improve the battery performance.
[0040] In this application, the additive in the negative electrode sheet treatment liquid can react with the residual water in the negative electrode sheet. When the additive is the first additive, the reaction between the first additive and water is as follows:
[0041]
[0042] As can be seen from the above reaction formula, the first additive can react with water to generate the first lithium alkoxide (lithium mercaptide) compound and lithium hydroxide, thereby removing the water in the negative electrode sheet. And when assembling the negative electrode sheet into a battery, the first lithium alkoxide (lithium mercaptide) compound can also react further with the electrolyte. Taking a lithium secondary battery with an electrolyte containing ethylene carbonate (EC) as an example, the reaction between the first lithium alkoxide (lithium mercaptide) compound of the embodiment of the present application and the electrolyte is as follows:
[0043]
[0044] As can be seen from the above reaction formula, in a lithium secondary battery system with an electrolyte containing ethylene carbonate (EC), the first lithium alkoxide (lithium mercaptide) compound of the embodiment of the present application can react with ethylene carbonate to form lithium glycolate alkoxide. Among them, lithium glycolate alkoxide can be used as a protective layer to cover the surface of the negative electrode sheet, thereby inhibiting the reduction of the electrolyte on the negative electrode surface and reducing the loss of active lithium.
[0045] Taking a lithium secondary battery with an electrolyte containing fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) as an example, the reaction between the first lithium alkoxide (lithium mercaptide) compound of the embodiment of the present application and the electrolyte is as follows:
[0046]
[0047] As can be seen from the above reaction formula, in a lithium secondary battery system with an electrolyte containing fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC), the first lithium alkoxide (lithium mercaptide) compound of the embodiment of the present application can react with fluoroethylene carbonate to form alkyl (thio) etherified carbonate and lithium fluoride. Among them, both alkyl (thio) etherified carbonate and lithium fluoride can be used as protective layers to cover the surface of the negative electrode sheet, thereby inhibiting the reduction of the electrolyte on the negative electrode surface and reducing the loss of active lithium.
[0048] When the additive of the embodiment of the present application is the second additive, the reaction between the second additive and water is as follows:
[0049]
[0050] As can be seen from the above reaction formula, the second additive can react with water to generate the second lithium alkoxide (lithium mercaptide) compound and lithium hydroxide, and the second lithium alkoxide (lithium mercaptide) compound can also react further with the electrolyte. Taking a lithium secondary battery with an electrolyte containing ethylene carbonate (EC) as an example, the reaction between the second lithium alkoxide (lithium mercaptide) compound of the embodiment of the present application and the electrolyte is as follows:
[0051]
[0052] As can be seen from the above reaction formula, in a lithium secondary battery system where the electrolyte contains ethylene carbonate (EC), the lithium dialcoholate (lithium mercaptide) compound of the embodiments of the present application can react with ethylene carbonate to form lithium glycolate. Among them, lithium glycolate can be used as a protective layer to cover the surface of the negative electrode plate, thereby inhibiting the reduction of the electrolyte on the negative electrode surface and reducing the loss of active lithium.
[0053] Taking a lithium secondary battery with an electrolyte containing fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) as an example, the reaction of the lithium dialcoholate (lithium mercaptide) compound of the embodiments of the present application with the electrolyte is as follows:
[0054]
[0055] As can be seen from the above reaction formula, in a lithium secondary battery system where the electrolyte contains fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC), the lithium dialcoholate (lithium mercaptide) compound of the embodiments of the present application can react with fluorinated ethylene carbonate to form alkyl (thio) etherified carbonate and lithium fluoride. Among them, alkyl (thio) etherified carbonate and lithium fluoride can be used as the SEI film to cover the surface of the negative electrode plate, thereby inhibiting the reaction of the electrolyte on the negative electrode plate.
[0056] In a lithium secondary battery, when the negative electrode material is graphite, the active hydrogen on the surface of the graphite negative electrode will form an SEI film and generate gas during battery formation, which will cause the loss of active lithium in the battery and the decline of the battery safety performance. The additive in the present application can also react with the active hydrogen on the surface of graphite, thereby removing the active hydrogen on the surface of graphite and improving the battery performance. Specifically, when the additive is the first additive, the reaction of the first additive with active hydrogen is as follows:
[0057]
[0058] Among them, G in the reaction formula refers to graphite. As can be seen from the above reaction formula, the first additive can react with active hydrogen to form a lithium dialcoholate (lithium mercaptide) compound and graphite with a lithium alcoholate group on the surface, and the lithium dialcoholate (lithium mercaptide) compound can further react with the electrolyte to form an SEI film.
[0059] When the additive is the second additive, the reaction of the second additive with active hydrogen is as follows:
[0060]
[0061] As can be seen from the above reaction formula, the second additive can react with active hydrogen to form a second lithium alkoxide (lithium mercaptide) compound and graphite with lithium alkoxide groups on its surface, and the second lithium alkoxide (lithium mercaptide) compound can further react with the electrolyte to form a SEI film.
[0062] In a lithium secondary battery, a carbonate solvent is often used as the solvent of the electrolyte, and the carbonate solvent has good electrochemical stability. The additive of the present application can react with the carbonate solvent. The reaction product can not only cover the surface of the negative electrode to form a protective layer, but also further react with the electrolyte to form an interfacial film similar to the SEI film, thereby inhibiting the reaction of the electrolyte on the surface of the negative electrode sheet in subsequent cycles and reducing the loss of lithium. Among them, taking a lithium secondary battery with an electrolyte containing ethylene carbonate (EC) as an example, when the additive in the embodiment of the present application is the first additive, the reaction of the first additive with the electrolyte is:

[0066] When the additive in the embodiment of the present application is the second additive, the reaction of the second additive with the electrolyte is:
[0067]
[0068] The reaction product of the second additive and the electrolyte can further react with the electrolyte to form an interfacial film similar to the SEI film. The reaction of the reaction product with the electrolyte is:
[0069]
[0070] As can be seen from the above reaction formula, in a lithium secondary battery system with an electrolyte containing ethylene carbonate (EC), the additive in the embodiment of the present application can react with ethylene carbonate to form lithium glycolate carboxylate or lithium ethylene carbonate alkoxide. Among them, both lithium glycolate carboxylate and lithium ethylene carbonate alkoxide can inhibit the reaction of the electrolyte on the surface of the negative electrode sheet, thereby reducing the loss of active lithium.
[0071] Taking a lithium secondary battery with an electrolyte containing fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) as an example, when the additive in the embodiment of the present application is the first additive, the reaction of the first additive with the electrolyte is:
[0072]
[0073] The reaction product of the first additive and the electrolyte can further react with the electrolyte to form an interfacial film similar to the SEI film. The reaction of the reaction product and the electrolyte is as follows:
[0074]
[0075] When the additive in the embodiment of the present application is the second additive, the reaction of the second additive and the electrolyte is as follows:
[0076]
[0077] The reaction product of the second additive and the electrolyte can further react with the electrolyte to form an interfacial film similar to the SEI film. The reaction of the reaction product and the electrolyte is as follows:
[0078]
[0079] It can be seen from the above reaction formulas that in a lithium secondary battery system where the electrolyte contains fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC), the additive in the embodiment of the present application can react with fluoroethylene carbonate to generate lithium fluoroethylene glycol carboxylate and lithium fluoride. Among them, lithium fluoroethylene glycol carboxylate and lithium fluoride can act as a protective layer covering the surface of the negative electrode sheet, thereby inhibiting the reaction of the electrolyte on the surface of the negative electrode sheet and reducing the loss of active lithium.

The volume ratio of the ether solvent to the amine solvent can specifically but is not limited to 1∶0.3, 1∶0.5, 1∶0.7, 1∶1, 1∶1.5, 1∶2, or 1∶3.

[0253] 2) The cycle performance of the soft-pack batteries of Examples 1-14 and Comparative Example 1 was tested. The specific test conditions were as follows: The soft-pack battery was charged at a constant current of 20 mA to 4.35 V at a temperature of 25 °C, and then discharged at a constant current of 20 mA to 3.0 V. Then it was charged to 4.35 V at a current of 200 mA, and the voltage was held constant until the current was 20 mA, and then discharged to 3.0 V at a current of 200 mA. This was taken as one cycle; the first charge capacity and discharge capacity were recorded, and the first Coulomb efficiency (%) was calculated; after repeating the charge and discharge cycle 500 times, the discharge capacity of the 500th cycle was recorded, and the capacity retention rate after cycling (%) = discharge capacity after 200 cycles / first discharge capacity × 100%; the test results are shown in Table 2.
