[0024]

[0025] The present invention also discloses a lithium-ion battery, comprising the lithium-ion battery electrolyte as described above.

[0026] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0027] (1) The siloxane phosphate compound A of Formula I in this invention has a siloxane structure that can effectively remove trace amounts of water and acidic HF products from electrolyte decomposition, preventing HF from corroding the electrode material and causing structural damage. The Si-O bond can withstand higher temperatures and has better thermal stability, effectively improving the battery's thermal shock resistance and high-temperature cycling performance. The siloxane structure and phosphate group can regulate the LiF composition in the SEI film, resulting in a porous and permeable SEI film that effectively reduces the battery's internal resistance.

[0028] (2) In this invention, the unsaturated olefin structure and fluorine element in lithium sulfate salt compound B with formula II are conducive to the participation of additives in the formation of electrode interface film. The lithium sulfate structure of the additive can form a high-conductivity SEI film component on the electrode surface, which works synergistically with additive A to effectively reduce the internal resistance of the battery and improve the low-temperature rate performance of the battery.

[0029] (3) In this invention, the isocyanate group in the triisocyanate-based compound C can form a good protective film at the positive electrode, complexing transition metal ions at the positive electrode and inhibiting the dissolution of metal ions and the decomposition of the electrolyte at the positive electrode. The substitution of hydrogen atoms on the alkyl group of the isocyanate group by fluorine atoms leads to a decrease in activation energy and a reduction in the HOMO-LUMO energy level, thereby increasing the reduction potential and oxidation potential of the additive. A high reduction potential can form an effective SEI film, further inhibiting excessive decomposition of the electrolyte and significantly improving the cycle performance of the battery. The HOMO-LUMO energy levels, collectively referred to as frontier orbitals, respectively refer to the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO).

[0030] (4) In this invention, the FEC in the film-forming additive D can continuously modify the SEI film damaged during cycling, avoiding direct contact between the electrode interface and the electrolyte and causing side reactions, thus effectively improving the battery cycle performance. FEC is easily decomposed at high temperatures to generate HF, while phosphate siloxane compound A can effectively remove HF. Therefore, phosphate siloxane compound A and film-forming additive D have a synergistic effect.

[0031] (5) The F atoms in the fluorinated organic solvents of this invention have strong electronegativity and weak polarity, which makes the fluorinated solvents have high oxidation resistance. The inventors found through a large number of experiments that if too many fluorine atoms are substituted or the chain hydrocarbon is too long, it will easily lead to an increase in the viscosity of the solvent, which is not conducive to improving the low-temperature rate performance of the battery.

[0032] (6) In this invention, the above four additives and fluorinated solvents can interact with each other when used together in the electrolyte. Compared with using only one or two of them, the performance of the electrolyte can be effectively improved.

[0033] (7) The electrolyte provided by the present invention has excellent film-forming performance on the electrode surface through the synergistic effect of phosphate siloxane compound A, lithium sulfate salt compound B, triisocyanate group compound C, film-forming additive D and fluorinated solvent. The additive can effectively remove acidic by-products of the electrolyte, and the electrolyte has stronger oxidation resistance and thermal stability, which effectively improves the high-temperature cycle performance, thermal shock resistance and low-temperature discharge capability of lithium-ion batteries.

[0067] Example 1

[0068] This embodiment illustrates the lithium-ion battery and its preparation method disclosed in this invention, and includes the following steps:

[0069] Electrolyte preparation: EC, DEC, and PC were mixed in a mass ratio of 1:1:1 as an organic solvent. Additives in the mass percentages shown in Example 1 of Table 1 were added to the organic solvent, and after thorough mixing, LiPF6 was added to obtain an electrolyte with a LiPF6 concentration of 1.1 mol / L.

[0070] Fabrication of the positive electrode sheet: The positive electrode active material (LiCoO2), conductive agent CNT (Carbon Nanotube), and binder PVDF (polyvinylidene fluoride) are thoroughly mixed in N-methylpyrrolidone solvent at a mass ratio of 97:1.5:1.5 to form a uniform positive electrode slurry.

[0073] The positive electrode, separator, and negative electrode are stacked in sequence, with the separator positioned between the positive and negative electrodes to provide isolation.

[0075] Examples 2-6 include most of the operational steps as in Example 1, except that in the electrolyte preparation operation, additives are added to the organic solvent in the mass percentage amounts shown in Table 1 for Examples 2-6.

[0076] Comparative Examples 1-7

[0077] Comparative Examples 1 to 7 are used to compare and illustrate the lithium-ion battery electrolyte, lithium-ion battery and preparation method disclosed in this invention, including most of the operation steps as in Example 1, except that in the electrolyte preparation operation: additives with the mass percentage content shown in Comparative Examples 1 to 7 in Table 1 are added to the organic solvent.

[0078] Table 1

[0079]

[0080]

[0081] The lithium-ion batteries prepared in Examples 1-6 and Comparative Examples 1-7 were subjected to the following performance tests:

[0082] (1) High-temperature cycle performance test: At 45℃, the battery after capacity division is charged to 4.45V at 1C constant current and constant voltage, with a cutoff current of 0.05C, and then discharged to 3.0V at 0.5C constant current. This cycle is repeated. After 500 charge-discharge cycles, the capacity retention rate at the 500th cycle is calculated using the following formula:

[0083] 500-week cycle capacity retention (%) = (500-week cycle discharge capacity / initial cycle discharge capacity) × 100%.

[0084] (2) Low-temperature discharge performance test: Under 25℃ environmental conditions, the capacity-graded battery was discharged at 0.2C to 3.0V and left to stand for 5 minutes; then charged at 0.2C to 4.45V. When the cell voltage reached 4.45V, it was switched to constant voltage charging at 4.45V until the charging current was less than or equal to the given cutoff current of 0.05C, and left to stand for 5 minutes; the fully charged cell was transferred to a high-low temperature chamber, set to -20℃, and left to stand for 120 minutes after the chamber temperature was reached; then discharged at 0.2C to the cutoff voltage of 3.0V and left to stand for 5 minutes; then the high-low temperature chamber temperature was adjusted to 25℃±3℃, and left to stand for 60 minutes after the chamber temperature was reached; charged at 0.2C to 4.45V. When the cell voltage reached 4.45V, it was switched to constant voltage charging at 4.45V until the charging current was less than or equal to the given cutoff current of 0.05C; left to stand for 5 minutes; the capacity retention rate at -20℃ low-temperature discharge of 3.0V was calculated. The calculation formula is as follows:

[0085] -20℃ discharge to 3.0V capacity retention rate (%) = (-20℃ discharge capacity to 3.0V / 25℃ discharge capacity to 3.0V) × 100%.

[0086] (3) Thermal shock performance: Under 25℃ ambient conditions, discharge to 3.0V with a given current of 0.2C; rest for 5 minutes; charge to 4.45V with a charging current of 0.2C. When the cell voltage reaches 4.45V, switch to 4.45V constant voltage charging until the charging current is less than or equal to the given cutoff current of 0.05C; after resting for 1 hour, put the cell into an oven. The oven temperature rises to 130±2℃ at a rate of 5±2℃ / min and is maintained for 60 minutes before stopping. The judgment criterion is that the cell does not catch fire or explode.

[0087] The test results are shown in Table 2 below:

[0088] Table 2

[0089]

[0090] (1) Thermal Shock: According to the comparative examples and embodiments, the thermal shock pass rate can be improved by adding phosphosiloxane compound A, lithium sulfate compound B, triisocyanate compound C, and film-forming additive D separately. This is because the siloxane group in phosphosiloxane compound A can remove HF decomposed at high temperatures in the electrolyte, preventing HF from causing more electrode side reactions and leading to thermal runaway of the battery cell under thermal shock; the lithium sulfate structure in lithium sulfate compound B can form a stable passivation film on the electrode surface, which is beneficial to improving the thermal shock pass rate; the isocyanate functional group in triisocyanate compound C can complex metal ions in the positive electrode, effectively improving the structural stability of the battery cell material. When all four additives are used simultaneously, the thermal shock pass rate is significantly improved.

[0091] (2) High-temperature cycling: According to the comparative examples and the actual examples, the high-temperature cycling performance of the battery can be improved by adding phosphate siloxane compound A, lithium sulfate compound B, triisocyanate compound C, film-forming additive D, or fluorinated solvent alone. The performance improvement is most significant when all four additives are used simultaneously with the fluorinated solvent. The results of Comparative Example 7 show that when the additive content exceeds 3% and the fluorinated solvent content exceeds 8%, the cycle performance of the battery decreases. This is because excessive additives increase the electrode interface impedance and deteriorate the battery performance.

[0092] (3) Low-temperature discharge: According to the comparative examples and embodiments, the addition of siloxane phosphate compound A and lithium sulfate compound B, respectively, can improve the low-temperature discharge capability of the battery. Siloxane phosphate compound A and phosphate can regulate the LiF composition in the SEI film, resulting in a porous and permeable SEI film that effectively reduces the battery's internal resistance. The lithium sulfate structure of lithium sulfate compound B can form an SEI film with higher conductivity. The combined use of additives can jointly improve the low-temperature discharge capability of the battery. The results of Comparative Example 7 show that when the additive content exceeds 3% and the fluorinated solvent exceeds 8%, excessive additives increase the electrode interface impedance, and the fluorinated solvent also increases the electrolyte viscosity, affecting the lithium-ion battery's transport and thus its low-temperature discharge performance.

[0093] The above description, in conjunction with specific optional embodiments, provides a further detailed explanation of the present invention. It should not be construed that the specific implementation of the present invention is limited to these descriptions. For those skilled in the art, various simple deductions or substitutions can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, and all such modifications and substitutions should be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
