Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a lithium-ion electrolyte, a gel polymer electrolyte, and a lithium-ion battery. Background Art

[0002] Lithium ion batteries (LIBs) have the advantages of high working voltage, high energy density, long cycle life, environmental friendliness, and low self-discharge, and can be used as portable energy storage devices in electric vehicles, hybrid electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, industries, and smart grids, and have broad application prospects in future use.

[0003] As one of the extremely important components in LIBs, the electrolyte has a great impact on the safety and electrochemical performance of LIBs. Traditional electrolyte materials are mainly organic liquid electrolytes supplemented by others. However, organic liquid electrolytes are prone to problems such as leakage and gas expansion, which can cause a series of safety problems. Solid electrolytes have good safety, but have poor contact with electrodes, resulting in high interfacial impedance, and most solid electrolytes have low room-temperature ionic conductivity, which cannot meet the needs of lithium-ion batteries. Gel polymer electrolytes are electrolytes formed by adding corresponding plasticizers to all-solid polymer electrolytes. This combination has both the cohesion of solids and the diffusivity of liquids. It combines the excellent properties of polymer matrices (such as mechanical stability, flexibility, and non-leakage) with the excellent ionic conductivity of liquid organic electrolytes, and has significant commercial prospects.

[0004] Although gel polymer electrolytes have many excellent properties, they also have low mechanical strength and are difficult to resist the damage of lithium dendrites during battery use. Chinese Patent CN201910732788.8 discloses the use of graphene quantum dots as additives to modify the electrolyte. Without affecting lithium-ion transport, as nucleation sites, it guides the uniform nucleation and growth deposition of lithium, inhibits the dendritic growth during the charge and discharge cycle of lithium metal electrodes, and eliminates the hidden danger of short circuit. However, adding polymers and graphene quantum dots to conventional electrolytes cannot improve the electrochemical performance of electrodes, especially those using silicon anodes, due to their volume expansion. Moreover, due to the polymers, the initial capacity of lithium-ion batteries will also decrease and the cycle performance will deteriorate. Summary of the Invention
