Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of battery manufacturing technology, and in particular relates to a battery slurry, its preparation method and application. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasing development of battery technology and the increasing demands of consumers, there is a growing demand for fast-charging and fast-discharging high-rate batteries. The cells of this type of battery usually need to meet a discharge rate of 10C or higher. Currently, methods to improve the rate performance of cells usually include using small-particle-size active materials, adding multiple conductive agents, and reducing the areal density of the electrode sheets. However, the above methods will lead to the following problems: (1) Dispersion problem: Multiple conductive agents agglomerate in the slurry, affecting the stability of the slurry; (2) Coating under low areal density, the agglomerated slurry will cause a large number of particles and scratches on the surface of the electrode sheets. Therefore, the above methods will not only affect the rate performance of the cells, but also reduce the yield and processing efficiency of the electrode sheets, and increase the production cost of the cells.

[0003] CN113380973A discloses a method for preparing a silicon-based negative electrode slurry. The method includes: stirring a solvent, thickener, and conductive agent in a gelling tank to obtain a conductive adhesive; mixing a silicon active material and a carbon active material to obtain a silicon-based composite material; mixing the silicon-based composite material and the conductive adhesive in a stirrer; then adding the remaining conductive adhesive to the stirrer and mixing to obtain a mixed slurry; and adding an adhesive to the mixed slurry and continuing to stir to obtain the negative electrode slurry. This preparation method uses a simultaneous spraying method to add the conductive adhesive and the silicon-based composite material, which promotes the wetting process of the adhesive on the surface of the active material particles.

[0004] CN112366310A discloses a lithium-ion battery positive electrode slurry, its preparation method, and a lithium-ion battery. The preparation method includes the following steps: (1) mixing positive electrode active powder and conductive agent powder, and obtaining a first powder after degassing; (2) mixing the first powder with a humidifying gas to obtain a second powder; (3) mixing the second powder with a solvent, and obtaining an intermediate slurry after degassing; (4) mixing the intermediate slurry with a binder to obtain the lithium-ion battery positive electrode slurry. This preparation method shortens the wetting time by degassing the powder and using a humidifying gas, thus solving the problem of competition between gas and liquid on the powder surface.

[0005] CN109192941A discloses a lithium-ion battery positive electrode slurry and its preparation method. The method includes: adding positive electrode material, conductive agent, and binder into a stirring device and mixing them evenly to obtain a dry powder mixture; preheating the solvent to a specified temperature range; adding a specified amount of preheated solvent to the dry powder mixture and stirring to form a primary slurry; adjusting the viscosity of the primary slurry with solvent, and then grinding, filtering, and vacuum degassing to obtain the lithium-ion battery positive electrode slurry. This preparation method improves the dissolution rate of the binder during stirring by preheating the solvent.

[0006] The aforementioned literature has optimized the preparation process of battery slurry, which has improved the wetting effect of solvent on powder materials to a certain extent. However, it cannot solve the problems of easy agglomeration of various conductive agents and easy scratches caused by low-density coating. In other words, the slurry in the above literature is not suitable for fast-charge and fast-discharge high-rate battery systems. Summary of the Invention

[0007] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the present invention aims to provide a battery slurry, its preparation method, and its applications. The battery slurry prepared using the method provided by this invention has a conductive agent uniformly coated on the surface of the active material, thereby significantly improving the conductivity of the battery electrodes. Furthermore, the battery slurry prepared by this invention exhibits high stability, effectively avoiding the problems of easy agglomeration of various conductive agents in the battery slurry and scratches caused by low-density coating, thus further improving the rate performance and fast-charging performance of the battery. Therefore, the battery slurry prepared by the method provided by this invention is suitable for fast-charge / fast-discharge high-rate battery systems.

[0008] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0009] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a method for preparing a battery slurry, the method comprising:

[0010] The conductive agent and the first solvent are mixed to obtain a mud-like conductive solid. The mud-like conductive solid is then mixed with the active material and a conductive adhesive is added to obtain the battery slurry.

[0011] In this invention, a mud-like conductive solid is mixed with the active material, i.e., a semi-dry mixing process is adopted. Combined with the subsequent addition of conductive adhesive, the fineness of the slurry is significantly reduced, the stability of the slurry is improved, and the conductive agent is uniformly dispersed and coated on the surface of the active material. This significantly improves the conductivity of the battery electrode, shortens the slurry preparation time, and improves the production efficiency of the battery cell.

[0012] The battery slurry prepared by the method provided in this invention has a uniform coating of conductive agents on the surface of the active material, thereby significantly improving the conductivity of the battery electrodes. Furthermore, the battery slurry prepared by this invention exhibits high stability, effectively avoiding the problems of easy agglomeration of various conductive agents in the battery slurry and scratches caused by low-density coating, thus further improving the rate performance and fast-charging performance of the battery. Therefore, the battery slurry prepared by the method provided in this invention is suitable for fast-charge / fast-discharge high-rate battery systems.

[0013] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the mass ratio of the conductive agent to the first solvent is 1:(1 to 40), for example, it can be 1:1, 1:5, 1:10, 1:15, 1:20, 1:25, 1:30, 1:35 or 1:40, but it is not limited to the listed values. Other unlisted values ​​within this range are also applicable; preferably, it is 1:(3 to 10).

[0014] This invention controls the mass ratio of the conductive agent to the first solvent within the range of 1:(1-40). When the mass ratio is lower than 1:40, the amount of the first solvent added is too high, making it impossible to form a mud-like conductive solid. When the mass ratio is higher than 1:1, the amount of the first solvent added is too low, and the conductive agent cannot be effectively wetted, also failing to form a mud-like conductive solid. Controlling the mass ratio of the conductive agent to the first solvent within the range of 1:(3-10) is more conducive to the mixing of the conductive agent and the first solvent to form a mud-like conductive solid, thereby better leveraging its synergistic effect with the subsequent addition of the conductive adhesive.

The prepared battery slurry has a smaller particle size and higher stability, which can effectively avoid the problems of easy agglomeration of multiple conductive agents in the battery slurry and easy scratches caused by low-density coating, thereby further improving the rate performance and fast charging performance of the battery.
