Detailed Embodiments
[0025] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0026] The present invention discovers that for a battery, the porosity of the positive electrode active material layer, the porosity of the separator, and the thickness of the separator all have a great influence on the power performance and energy density of the battery. Based on this, the present invention provides a battery, including a positive electrode plate, a negative electrode plate, an electrolyte, and a separator; the positive electrode plate includes a positive electrode current collector and a positive electrode active material layer disposed on at least one surface of the positive electrode current collector; the negative electrode plate includes a negative electrode current collector and a negative electrode active material layer disposed on at least one surface of the negative electrode current collector; the battery satisfies 0.45 ≤ 1000×(25p1 2 +16p2 2 )×p3 / (c×t) ≤ 0.6; where p1 is the porosity of the positive electrode active material layer; p2 is the porosity of the negative electrode active material layer; p3 is the porosity of the separator; c is the single-sided areal density of the positive electrode active material layer, in g / m 2 ; t is the thickness of the separator, in μm.
[0027] When designing the battery cell, the porosity of the positive electrode active material layer, the porosity of the negative electrode active material layer, the porosity of the separator, and the areal density of the positive electrode active material layer all affect the energy density and power performance of the battery cell. However, their influences have certain limitations and correlations. Only when the formula 0.45 ≤ 1000×(25p1 2 +16p2 2 )×p3 / (c×t) ≤ 0.6 is satisfied can the battery cell have both power performance and energy density. Guided by the above formula, a large number of DOE tests can be avoided, saving the time and cost of battery research and development, and enabling the designed battery to have excellent power performance and energy density.
[0028] In the present invention, the positive electrode sheet includes a positive electrode current collector and a positive electrode active material layer disposed on at least one surface of the positive electrode current collector.
[0029] The positive electrode current collector can be a positive electrode current collector well-known to those skilled in the art without any special limitation. In the present invention, it is preferably aluminum foil, carbon-coated aluminum foil or nickel mesh; the thickness of the positive electrode current collector is preferably 3 to 50 μm, more preferably 5 to 30 μm, still more preferably 5 to 20 μm, and most preferably 8 to 11 μm.
[0030] A positive electrode active material layer is disposed on the positive electrode current collector; the positive electrode active material layer can be disposed on one surface of the positive electrode current collector, or both surfaces can be provided with the positive electrode active material layer without any special limitation; the positive electrode active material layer includes positive electrode active material; the mass of the positive electrode active material is preferably 94% to 98% of the mass of the positive electrode active material layer, more preferably 96% to 97%; the positive electrode active material is preferably one or more of lithium cobalt oxide, lithium nickel oxide, lithium manganese oxide, lithium nickel manganese oxide, lithium nickel cobalt manganese oxide, lithium nickel cobalt aluminum oxide and lithium-containing phosphate with olivine structure, more preferably LiNi x Co y Mn 1-x-y O2 ternary material, where x is greater than 0.7; in the present invention, the specific x is 0.8 to 0.9; specifically, y is greater than 0 and less than 0.3, further specifically, y is greater than 0 and less than 0.2, and still further specifically, y is 0.05 to 0.1; the true density of the positive electrode active material is preferably 4.5 to 5.0 g / cm 3 , more preferably 4.6 to 4.9 g / cm 3 , still more preferably 4.7 to 4.8 g / cm 3 ; the positive electrode active material layer preferably further includes a positive electrode conductive agent; the mass of the positive electrode conductive agent is preferably 1% to 2% of the mass of the positive electrode active material layer; the positive electrode conductive agent can be a conductive agent well-known to those skilled in the art without any special limitation. In the present invention, it is preferably one or more of conductive graphite, conductive carbon black, conductive carbon fiber, carbon nanotube and graphene; the true density of the positive electrode conductive agent is preferably 1.5 to 2.0 g / cm 3 , more preferably 1.6 to 1.9 g / cm 3 , still more preferably 1.7 to 1.8 g / cm 3; The positive electrode active material layer preferably further includes a positive electrode binder; the mass of the positive electrode binder is preferably 0.8% to 2% of the mass of the positive electrode active material layer, more preferably 0.8% to 1.5%, and still more preferably 1% to 1.2%; the positive electrode binder can be any binder well-known to those skilled in the art without special limitations. In the present invention, it is preferably one or more of chitosan, xanthan gum, gellan gum, arabic gum, polyacrylonitrile, polyvinylidene fluoride, polyvinyl alcohol, carboxymethyl cellulose, lithium carboxymethyl cellulose, sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, polymethacrylyl, polyacrylic acid, lithium polyacrylate, sodium polyacrylate, polyacrylamide, styrene-butadiene rubber, sodium alginate, polyethylene glycol, guar gum, guar gum polymer and guar gum copolymer; the true density of the positive electrode binder is preferably 1.5 to 2.0 g / cm 3 , more preferably 1.6 to 1.9 g / cm 3 , still more preferably 1.7 to 1.8 g / cm 3 , most preferably 1.75 to 1.77 g / cm 3 .
[0031] During battery charge and discharge, lithium ions are deintercalated and intercalated between the positive electrode materials. The deintercalation and intercalation processes of lithium ions are closely related to the porosity of the positive electrode plate. On the one hand, when the porosity of the positive electrode active material layer decreases, the electron conductive network in the electrode is improved and the internal resistance decreases. However, if the porosity is too low, the liquid absorption performance will decrease, the electrochemical reaction interface will decrease, and the ion transport channels will be blocked, resulting in poor power performance of the battery; on the other hand, when the porosity of the positive electrode active material layer increases, the wettability of the electrolyte is good, the ion channels increase, which helps to improve the ion transport rate. However, if the porosity is too high, the conductive network of the electrode plate will become worse, the internal resistance of the battery will increase, and in addition, too high porosity will also lead to a decrease in energy density. Therefore, in the present invention, the porosity p1 of the positive electrode active material layer is preferably 24% to 29%, more preferably 24.2% to 28.8%, and still more preferably 24.41% to 28.73%; when the porosity of the positive electrode active material layer meets the above value range, it can effectively ensure that the power performance and energy density of the battery meet the requirements. In some embodiments provided by the present invention, the porosity p1 of the positive electrode active material layer is specifically 26.57%, 28.73% or 24.41%.
[0032] When the areal density of the electrode plate is lower, the contact resistance decreases, the ion transport distance is also shortened, and at the same time, the SEI film formed during formation is thin and stable, which will reduce the lithium ion migration resistance and improve the power performance of the battery cell. However, if the areal density is too low, the proportion of the current collector in the electrode plate increases, which will cause the energy density of the lithium ion battery to be too low. Controlling the areal density within a suitable range can improve the power performance of the battery and ensure that the energy density of the battery will not be too low. Therefore, in the present invention, the single-sided areal density c of the positive electrode active material layer is preferably 150 to 200 g / m 2; In some embodiments provided by the present invention, the single-sided surface density c of the positive electrode active material layer is specifically 175 g / m 2 , 150 g / m 2 or 200 g / m 2 .
[0033] In the present invention, the porosity of the positive electrode active material layer can be adjusted by controlling the compaction density of the electrode sheet and the true density of the material. In this application, the porosity of the electrode sheet has the meaning well-known in the art and can be measured by methods known in the art. Specifically, the porosity values in the embodiments of the present invention are all measured by the cetane adsorption method, and the specific test method refers to the national standard GB / T 33052-2016; the compaction density of the positive electrode active material layer is preferably 3.3-3.5 g / cm 3 ; In the embodiments provided by the present invention, the compaction density of the positive electrode active material layer is specifically 3.4 g / cm 3 , 3.3 g / cm 3 or 3.5 g / cm 3 .
[0034] In the present invention, the negative electrode includes a negative electrode current collector and a negative electrode active material layer provided on at least one surface of the negative electrode current collector.
[0035] The negative electrode current collector can be a negative electrode current collector well-known to those skilled in the art without special limitations.

[0037] Similar to the porosity of the above-mentioned positive electrode active material layer, the porosity of the negative electrode active material layer also affects the power performance and energy density of the battery; in the present invention, the porosity p2 of the negative electrode active material layer is preferably 25% to 33%, more preferably 25.5% to 32.6%, still more preferably 25.58% to 32.56%; when the porosity of the negative electrode active material layer meets the above-mentioned value range, the power performance and energy density of the battery can be effectively guaranteed; in some embodiments provided by the present invention, the porosity of the negative electrode active material layer is specifically 32.56%, 30.23%, 27.91%, or 25.58%.
[0038] In the present invention, the porosity of the negative electrode active material layer can be adjusted by the true density of the materials used and the tap density of the negative electrode active material layer; the tap density of the negative electrode active material layer is preferably 1.48-1.63 g / cm 3 ; in the embodiments provided by the present invention, the tap density of the positive electrode active material layer is specifically 1.48 g / cm 3 , 1.53 g / cm 3 , 1.58 g / cm 3 or 1.63 g / cm 3 .
[0039] The conduction ability of electrolyte cations in the separator is directly related to the overall performance of the lithium battery. The porosity of the separator directly affects the conduction ability of electrolyte cations. The larger the porosity, the better the liquid absorption performance of the separator, the more perfect the ion transport channels, the stronger the ion conduction ability, and the better the power performance. However, if the porosity is too large, the separator is easily pierced by foreign objects or electrolyte metal dendrites, causing internal short circuit of the battery and thus triggering safety hazards. Controlling the porosity of the separator within a suitable range can improve the power performance on the premise of ensuring safety performance. Therefore, in the present invention, the porosity p3 of the separator is preferably 42%-48%; in some embodiments provided by the present invention, the porosity p3 of the separator is specifically 45%, 42% or 48%.
[0040] The thickness of the separator directly affects the transport distance of lithium ions. The thinner the separator, the shorter the transport distance of lithium ions, which will reduce the migration resistance of lithium ions and improve the power performance. In addition, the thinner the separator, the more space can be left for the active material of the electrode in the battery cell, thereby increasing the power density; however, if the separator is too thin, the mechanical strength of the separator will be greatly reduced, affecting the safety performance of the battery cell. Therefore, controlling the thickness of the separator within a suitable range can ensure safety performance while improving power performance and energy density. Therefore, in the present invention, the thickness t of the separator is preferably 14-18 μm; in some embodiments provided by the present invention, the thickness t of the separator is specifically 16 μm, 14 μm or 18 μm.
[0041] In the present invention, the type of the separator may be any separator well-known to those skilled in the art, without any special limitation.

[0043] According to the present invention, the battery preferably further includes a housing; the positive electrode, negative electrode, electrolyte and separator are all disposed within the housing.
[0044] In the present invention, the battery can be prepared into batteries with different structures according to the needs, without any special limitation. In the present invention, it preferably includes but is not limited to square shell batteries, cylindrical batteries or soft-pack batteries.
[0045] In the present invention, the battery can be selected as a wound type or a stacked type according to the situation, and the manufacturing method is not limited.
[0046] In the present invention, the battery is preferably a lithium battery.
[0047] By reasonably matching the surface density of the positive electrode coating, the coating porosities of the positive and negative electrodes, the porosity of the separator, and the thickness of the separator, the prepared battery has excellent energy density and can provide high-power output performance, meeting the usage requirements of EVTOL.

[0094] As can be seen from Table 1, Examples 1-9 are preferred solutions. The porosity p1 of the positive electrode active material layer, the porosity p2 of the negative electrode active material layer, the porosity p3 of the separator, the single-sided surface density c of the positive electrode active material layer, and the separator thickness t satisfy 1000×(25p1 2 +16p2 2 )×p3 / (c×t) requirements, and both the energy density and power performance are excellent. In Comparative Example 1, the surface density of the positive electrode active material layer is too low, resulting in too low energy density; in Comparative Example 2, the surface density is too high and does not satisfy 0.45 ≤ 1000*(25p1 2 +16p2 2 )*p3 / (c*t) ≤ 0.6, and its contact resistance is too large, the ion transport distance increases, resulting in poor power performance. In Comparative Example 3, the porosity of the positive electrode is too high, and in Comparative Example 5, the porosity of the negative electrode is too high, and both do not satisfy 0.45 ≤ 1000×(25p1 2 +16p2 2 )×p3 / (c×t) ≤ 0.6, which will lead to a poor conductive network of the electrode sheet and an increase in the internal resistance of the battery, affecting the power performance; in Comparative Example 4, the porosity of the positive electrode is too low, and in Comparative Example 6, the porosity of the negative electrode is too low, and both do not satisfy 0.45 ≤ 1000×(25p1 2 +16p2 2 )×p3 / (c×t) ≤ 0.6, both will lead to a decrease in the liquid absorption performance, a reduction in the electrochemical reaction interface, and a blockage of the ion transport channel, making the power performance of the battery poor; in Comparative Example 7, the separator thickness is too large and does not satisfy 0.45 ≤ 1000×(25p1 2 +16p2 2)×p3 / (c×t) ≤ 0.6, increasing the ion transport distance results in poor power performance; in Comparative Example 8, the porosity of the separator is too low and does not meet 0.45 ≤ 1000×(25p1 2 + 16p2 2 )×p3 / (c×t) ≤ 0.6, the separator has poor liquid absorption performance, insufficient ion transport channels, and poor ion conduction ability, resulting in poor power performance.
