Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of solid-state battery technology, specifically relating to a composite solid-state electrolyte particle, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] With continuous technological advancements, electrochemical energy storage has increasingly become an essential part of daily life, meeting people's needs in mobile transportation, large-scale energy storage, and electronic products. Lithium-ion batteries, as the most important electrochemical energy storage device, have also experienced significant development since their commercialization in 1991, with substantial improvements in cycle life, energy density, and safety. However, with increasingly stringent requirements for battery technology, existing liquid electrolyte systems still have shortcomings in energy density and safety. Side reactions of the electrolyte during battery operation, leading to volatilization and leakage, can cause irreversible capacity degradation, affecting the lifespan of lithium-ion batteries.

[0003] The emergence of solid-state batteries has effectively solved the above problems and represents the future direction for the development of high-capacity rechargeable batteries. Solid-state batteries have advantages such as high thermal stability, wide electrochemical window, fewer side reactions, high safety, and high output voltage, and are expected to replace existing liquid electrolyte battery systems. Among these, the solid electrolyte is the core of solid-state batteries, mainly including two categories: inorganic solid electrolytes and polymer solid electrolytes.

[0004] Inorganic solid electrolytes include sulfide solid electrolytes, oxide solid electrolytes, borohydride solid electrolytes, and halide solid electrolytes. Oxide solid electrolyte materials have advantages such as high safety performance, good stability, low cost, and environmental friendliness. Sulfide solid electrolytes have high ionic conductivity at room temperature, and at the same time, they have negligible electronic conductivity and good mechanical properties, which is conducive to the formation of a good solid-solid contact interface between the electrode and electrolyte in all-solid-state batteries, thereby optimizing the cycle stability of all-solid-state batteries. CN109390626A discloses an inorganic solid electrolyte synthesis process and its solid-state battery. The solid electrolyte is manufactured using an unconventional process, which modifies the composition of the material by the insertion and extraction of ions in the raw materials under ambient temperature and pressure. This process has low energy consumption and good consistency. The composition ratio of the material and the progress of the synthesis can be controlled by digital, intelligent, and automated means. The material synthesized by this method has good ionic conductivity at room temperature. When used as a solid electrolyte for lithium-ion batteries or sodium-ion batteries, the battery has a high discharge rate at room temperature, long cycle life, and good safety performance.

[0005] Polymer solid electrolytes include various polymer matrices such as polyethylene oxide (PEO) / polyacrylonitrile (PAN) and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), as well as polyionic liquid solid electrolytes, which have recently gained increasing research attention. CN111533851A discloses a method for preparing a polymer electrolyte by in-situ polymerization in a battery and its application in all-solid-state batteries. This polymer electrolyte comprises a polymer matrix and a lithium salt composited within the polymer matrix. The polymer electrolyte is formed by in-situ polymerization of materials including small molecule additives, crosslinking agents, and the lithium salt in the battery via thermal initiation. The small molecule additives are carbonate molecules containing olefinic unsaturated bonds, and the crosslinking agent is a substance containing polyethylene glycol acrylate structural units. This polymer electrolyte combines the high voltage resistance of carbonate polymers with the high ionic conductivity of polyethylene glycol segments.

[0006] Although both inorganic solid electrolytes and polymer solid electrolytes have their own excellent properties, they also have their own obvious shortcomings. Oxide inorganic solid electrolytes exhibit significant rigidity, resulting in point-to-point contact between particles and with electrode materials, severely impacting interparticle ion transport. Sulfide solid electrolytes have poor air stability, readily denaturing upon exposure to air and becoming inactive; they also suffer from high rigidity, hindering interparticle ion transport. Other inorganic electrolytes exhibit similar characteristics, either high rigidity, difficulty in interparticle ion transport, or poor air stability. While polymers offer good flexibility and generally good air stability, their bulk ionic conductivity is typically poor, far lower than that of inorganic electrolytes.

[0007] Based on the above problems, developing a composite solid electrolyte particle that combines the advantages of both inorganic and organic materials, and possesses high mechanical properties, high stability, and high ionic conductivity, is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved in this field. Summary of the Invention

[0008] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the present invention aims to provide a composite solid electrolyte particle, its preparation method, and its application. The composite solid electrolyte particle has a core-shell structure, wherein the core layer of the core-shell structure includes an inorganic solid electrolyte, and the shell layer includes an organic component. The composite solid electrolyte particle combines the excellent properties of both inorganic solid electrolytes and organic components, possessing excellent mechanical properties, high stability, and high ionic conductivity, and is expected to provide a new development opportunity for solid-state batteries.

[0009] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0010] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a composite solid electrolyte particle, wherein the composite solid electrolyte particle has a core-shell structure, and the core layer of the core-shell structure includes an inorganic solid electrolyte.

[0011] The shell of the core-shell structure includes organic components, which include organic solid electrolytes and / or polymers that do not swell in the electrolyte.

[0012] The composite solid electrolyte particles provided by this invention have a core-shell structure, with an inorganic solid electrolyte as the substrate core and an organic component coating the outside as the shell, combining the excellent properties of both organic components and inorganic solid electrolytes. Specifically, organic components with excellent mechanical properties and good stability but low conductivity are used to encapsulate inorganic solid electrolytes with poor mechanical properties (oxide solid electrolytes) or poor stability (sulfide solid electrolytes) but high conductivity. This avoids the problem of inorganic solid electrolytes being easily denatured when directly exposed to air, and also improves the ion transport effect between particles, achieving the effect of maximizing strengths and minimizing weaknesses. The resulting composite solid electrolyte particles simultaneously possess high mechanical properties, high stability, and high ionic conductivity. When applied to solid-state batteries, this helps to improve the interface problem between the electrolyte and the positive and negative electrodes, thereby helping to improve the electrical and safety performance of the solid-state battery.

[0013] In this invention, the term "polymer that does not swell in electrolyte" refers to a polymer that does not change volume in electrolyte and does not react with electrolyte. The same expressions used below have the same meaning.

[0014] Preferably, the particle size of the composite solid electrolyte particles is 10-1000 nm, such as 50 nm, 100 nm, 200 nm, 300 nm, 400 nm, 500 nm, 600 nm, 700 nm, 800 nm or 900 nm, and more preferably 30-500 nm.

[0015] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the particle size of the composite solid electrolyte particles is preferably 10-1000 nm, and more preferably 30-500 nm, so that the performance of the obtained composite solid electrolyte is optimal. On the one hand, if the particle size of the composite solid electrolyte particles is less than 30 nm, the specific surface area of ​​the obtained composite solid electrolyte will be too large, affecting the coating effect and making it difficult to control the coating thickness. On the other hand, if the particle size of the composite solid electrolyte particles is greater than 500 nm, the particles of the composite solid electrolyte will be too large, which will also affect the coating effect, as well as the ion conduction and system compaction density.

[0016] Preferably, the inorganic solid electrolyte includes any one or a combination of at least two of oxide solid electrolytes, sulfide solid electrolytes, or chloride solid electrolytes.

[0017] Preferably, the oxide solid electrolyte includes any one or a combination of at least two of NASICON-type oxide solid electrolytes, garnet-type oxide solid electrolytes, or perovskite-type oxide solid electrolytes.

[0026] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the thickness of the shell layer of the composite solid electrolyte particles is preferably no more than 100 nm, and more preferably no more than 50 nm, so that the performance of the obtained composite solid electrolyte is optimal. On the one hand, if the thickness of the shell layer of the composite solid electrolyte particles exceeds 50 nm, it will result in a thicker shell layer, making it difficult for the components of the core layer to exert their effects directly, thus affecting the ionic conductivity.

[0027] Preferably, the polymeric solid electrolyte includes any one or a combination of at least two of the following: ether-based polymeric solid electrolyte, cyano-based polymeric solid electrolyte, siloxane-based polymeric solid electrolyte, carbonate-based polymeric solid electrolyte, or fluorine-based polymeric solid electrolyte.

[0046] The preparation method of the composite solid electrolyte particles provided by this invention is simple to operate and specifically includes two methods, either Method A or Method B. Method A involves directly mixing the shell and core materials in water to form a solution, followed by spray drying. During this process, the organic solid electrolyte of the shell adheres to the surface of the core, directly yielding the core-shell structured composite electrolyte. Alternatively, Method B involves mixing the core and shell monomer materials in water to form a solution, adding a thermal initiator, and then spray drying. During spray drying, the thermal initiator initiates a thermopolymer reaction, causing the shell monomers to polymerize and coat the outside of the core, forming a core-shell structured composite solid electrolyte. Both preparation methods are simple, achieving coating in a single drying step, and have good application potential.

[0052] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0053] The composite solid electrolyte particles provided by this invention have a core-shell structure. The core layer of the core-shell structure includes an inorganic solid electrolyte, and the shell layer includes an organic component, which includes an organic solid electrolyte and / or a polymer that does not swell in the electrolyte.
