Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of battery technology, and in particular to an organic electrolyte and a lithium-ion secondary battery. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid promotion and popularization of new energy vehicles and portable power tools, the development trend of these products towards lightweight, high energy density, and universal adaptability in various environments is becoming increasingly obvious. As the most direct source of energy for electronic devices, lithium-ion batteries are facing increasing performance requirements, requiring them to have higher energy density in various extreme environments. This means they should be able to stably provide more energy while occupying less space and operating in extreme environments. Therefore, the current biggest challenge for lithium-ion batteries is to improve their volumetric energy density and high and low temperature discharge performance, while ensuring that the batteries can meet long-term charge and discharge requirements.
[0003] CN113130997B discloses that LiTFOP can form a dense and strong composite film on the surface of the positive electrode, thereby reducing the oxidation activity of the positive electrode active material and blocking the contact between the positive electrode active material and the electrolyte, thereby inhibiting the oxidative decomposition of the electrolyte.
[0004] CN114128006A and CN107394267B disclose the use of LiTFOP in combination with other additives to improve the low-temperature characteristics of batteries.
[0005] CN114069045A / WO2022012601A1 discloses that fluorine-containing lithium salt additives can construct an interface film with stronger ionic conductivity and favorable charge migration, and the interface film can continuously modify the positive and negative electrode interface films, thereby suppressing the continuous growth of battery cell impedance during battery cycling and improving the long-term high-temperature cycling stability of the battery;
[0006] The above technologies disclose the use of lithium tetrafluorooxalophosphate (LiTFOP) as a conventional additive in electrolytes. However, the combination of lithium tetrafluorooxalophosphate and some other conventional additives has limited performance improvements on the cycle life, high-temperature storage stability, and low-temperature discharge capacity of lithium-ion batteries. Further research on organic electrolyte systems is needed to achieve lithium-ion batteries with higher electrical performance. Summary of the Invention
[0007] The purpose of this application is to explore the effect of organic electrolyte systems on the electrical properties of lithium-ion batteries, especially the use of LiTFOP as an additive in combination with isocyanate additives, to improve the electrical performance of the battery and simultaneously improve the battery's room temperature cycling, high temperature cycling, low temperature discharge performance and high temperature storage performance.
[0008] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides the following technical solutions:
[0009] In a first aspect, the present application provides an organic electrolyte, comprising:
[0010] lithium tetrafluorooxalophosphate, and
[0011] Isocyanate compounds;
[0012] The isocyanate compound is selected from a mixture of one or more of a monoisocyanate compound, a diisocyanate compound, and a polyisocyanate compound;
[0013] Wherein, the mass ratio of the lithium tetrafluorooxalophosphate to the isocyanate compound is 2-5:1.
[0014] In the present application, the inventors discovered through in-depth research that the application of lithium tetrafluorooxalophosphate and isocyanate compounds in organic electrolytes can form a more stable organic-inorganic composite modified SEI film through binding at the negative electrode interface, thereby effectively reducing the direct contact between the organic solvent and the negative electrode interface and improving the reversibility of lithium ion insertion / deinsertion; among them, the isocyanate compound can also react with water and hydrofluoric acid in the electrolyte, and form new substances by breaking the carbon-nitrogen double bond, which can significantly reduce the acidity and moisture of the electrolyte. Moreover, due to the special properties of the long carbon chain, when participating in the construction of the SEI film, the SEI film formed in the present application can be made more elastic, which plays a role in better protecting the negative electrode interface, thereby helping to improve the cycle life characteristics, high-temperature storage stability and low-temperature discharge capability of the battery.
[0015] Studies have shown that when the mass ratio of lithium tetrafluorooxalophosphate to isocyanate compound is 2-5:1, it can effectively improve the battery's cycle life characteristics, high-temperature storage stability, and low-temperature discharge capacity. When the mass ratio of lithium tetrafluorooxalophosphate to isocyanate compound is less than 2:1, the battery's normal temperature and high-temperature cycle life will be significantly shortened, the low-temperature capacity retention rate will decrease, and the battery's high-temperature gas production will increase slightly. When the mass ratio of lithium tetrafluorooxalophosphate to isocyanate compound is greater than 5:1, the battery's normal temperature cycle life, high-temperature cycle life, and low-temperature capacity retention rate will also be significantly shortened, and the battery's high-temperature gas production will increase slightly.

[0110]
[0111] Experimental results analysis:
[0112] The experimental results of Examples 1 to 7 show that a lithium tetrafluorooxalophosphate content of 0.1-6% and a mass ratio of lithium tetrafluorooxalophosphate to isocyanate compound of 2-5:1 can effectively improve the battery's cycle life characteristics, high-temperature storage stability, and low-temperature discharge capability. Furthermore, the combination of the isocyanate compound represented by Formula 2 (n=6) and LiTFOP significantly improves the battery's room-temperature cycling, high-temperature cycling, low-temperature discharge performance, and high-temperature storage performance, with a preferred ratio of 1:2.

[0114] Comparing the experimental results of Comparative Examples 4-7 and Example 2 shows that when the mass ratio of lithium tetrafluorooxalophosphate to isocyanate compound is less than 2:1, the battery's room-temperature and high-temperature cycle life are significantly shortened, the low-temperature capacity retention rate decreases, and the battery's high-temperature gas production increases slightly. When the mass ratio of lithium tetrafluorooxalophosphate to isocyanate compound is greater than 5:1, the battery's room-temperature cycle life, high-temperature cycle life, and low-temperature capacity retention rate are also significantly shortened, and the battery's high-temperature gas production increases slightly.
[0115] By comparing the experimental results of Comparative Examples 8 and 9 with those of Example 2, it can be seen that when the content of lithium tetrafluorooxalophosphate is greater than 6%, the normal temperature and high temperature cycle life of the battery will be greatly shortened, the low temperature capacity retention rate will decrease, the high temperature capacity retention rate and recovery rate will decrease significantly, and the high temperature gas production phenomenon of the battery will be aggravated.
