[0032] The application will be further described in detail below in combination with preferred embodiments, but the protection scope of the application is not limited to the following specific embodiments.
[0033] In the present application, all the professional terms have the same meaning as generally understood by those skilled in the art, and the professional terms used herein are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present application.
[0034] The wide application of lithium ion batteries in various fields puts forward higher requirements for the performance of lithium ion batteries. Under the premise of ensuring energy density, fast charging ability and cycle life, how to further improve the safety performance of lithium ion batteries has become a problem to be solved. Many methods to improve the safety of lithium ion batteries are at the expense of the electrochemical performance of lithium ion batteries. In order to improve the safety performance of secondary batteries, by coating a primer layer on the surface of the current collector of the battery electrode sheet, the burr on the current collector after slitting can be avoided to pierce the separator, the short circuit phenomenon of the battery can be avoided, and the safety of the battery can be improved. However, the composition of the primer layer used in the existing battery electrode sheet is mostly insulating material, and the ability of the insulating material to conduct lithium ions is poor, which will greatly increase the impedance of the lithium ion battery and reduce the energy density of the battery, affecting the cycle performance of the battery.
[0035] In view of the above problems, the present application provides a battery electrode sheet, which has excellent safety performance and electrochemical performance by special structural design of the distribution of the primer layer and the active material layer on the current collector. The battery electrode sheet can cause local short circuit of the outer current collector in advance when mechanically abused (bending and unfolding or needle puncture), thereby improving the safety performance of the battery, and has good conductivity, which can improve the cycle performance and energy density of the battery.
[0036] The application provides a battery pole piece 10, which comprises a current collector 11, a primer layer 12 arranged on at least one side surface of the current collector 11, and an active material layer 13 arranged on the side surface of the primer layer 12 away from the current collector 11; the primer layer 12 comprises a first coating layer 1 and a second coating layer 2 arranged side by side along the length direction of the battery pole piece, the active material layer 13 at least partially covers the side surface of the first coating layer 1 away from the current collector 11, and the side surface of the second coating layer 2 away from the current collector 11 is at least partially uncovered by the active material layer 13. That is, the second coating layer 2 is arranged on the current collector 11 and covers part of the surface of the current collector 11, and the first coating layer 1 and the active material layer 13 are sequentially arranged on the current collector 11 and the active material layer 13 covers part of the surface of the current collector 11. In the application, the second coating layer 2 and the active material layer 13 can completely cover the surface of the current collector 11 or partially cover the surface of the current collector 11. In the application, the active material layer 13 can completely cover the side surface of the first coating layer 1 away from the current collector 11 or partially cover the side surface of the first coating layer 1 away from the current collector 11. In the application, the first coating layer 1 comprises an inorganic solid compound; the second coating layer 2 comprises an inorganic solid compound; and the mass percentage of the inorganic solid compound in the second coating layer is greater than the mass percentage of the inorganic solid compound in the first coating layer. The application arranges the first coating layer 1 between the current collector 11 and the active material layer 13, which can ensure that the first coating layer 1 has a large resistance, improve the short-circuit resistance of the battery in the case of short circuit under abnormal conditions, and improve the safety performance of the battery. The application controls the content of the inorganic solid compound in the second coating layer 2 to be greater than the content of the inorganic solid compound in the first coating layer, so that part or all of the exposed second coating layer 2 has good mechanical properties, improves the safety performance and service life of the battery, and makes the first coating layer 1 better connect the current collector and the active material layer, provide a good ion transmission channel, and thus improve the cycle performance of the battery, so as to obtain a battery pole piece with good safety performance and cycle performance.
[0037] In some embodiments of the application, the orthographic projection of the first coating layer 1 in the thickness direction of the battery pole piece 10 covers more than 70% of the active material layer 13. In some embodiments of the application, the orthographic projection of the first coating layer 1 in the thickness direction of the battery pole piece 10 covers 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, or 100% of the active material layer 13. In some embodiments of the application, the orthographic projection of the active material layer 13 and the first coating layer 1 in the thickness direction of the battery pole piece 10 completely coincides.
[0038] In some embodiments, the first coating layer 1 has an elongation of 0.02% to 2%. In some embodiments, the first coating layer 1 has an elongation of, for example, 0.02%, 0.05%, 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.5%, 0.8%, 1%, 1.2%, 1.5%, 1.8%, or 2%. The elongation is measured by stretching the battery electrode sheet sample using a universal mechanical testing machine, measuring the total deformation ΔL of the gauge section and the original gauge length L, and calculating the percentage of the total deformation ΔL of the gauge section and the original gauge length L, i.e., the elongation δ, (δ = ΔL / L x 100%). The first coating layer 1 has good elongation and conductivity, which can enhance the bonding force between the active material layer 13 and the current collector 11, avoid separation of the active material layer 13 and the current collector 11, ensure good adhesion interface of the battery electrode sheet in the battery cell, and improve the charging capacity and energy density of the battery. The second coating layer 2 is arranged on the blank surface of the current collector 11 and is not covered by the active material layer 13, i.e., one side of the second coating layer 2 directly contacts the current collector, and the other side is exposed on the outer surface of the battery electrode sheet 10. When the battery electrode sheet is mechanically abused, such as bending and unfolding, and needle piercing, local short circuit occurs in advance, which greatly reduces the heat generated at the short circuit position of the current collector, avoids high temperature of the battery cell, reduces the probability of fire and other dangers, and improves the safety performance of the battery electrode sheet. In some embodiments of the present application, the battery electrode sheet 10 is a positive electrode sheet, and the first coating layer 1 and the second coating layer 2 with a certain thickness together act as the bottom coating layer of the current collector 11 and directly contact the current collector, which can avoid the spurs on the current collector after slitting from piercing the separator, thereby avoiding the short circuit phenomenon between the negative electrode sheet and the positive electrode sheet, and improving the safety performance of the battery. In addition, the first coating layer 1 and the second coating layer 2 both contain 3 inorganic solid compounds, which can balance the safety performance and electrochemical performance of the first coating layer 1 and the second coating layer 2. The inorganic solid compounds improve the safety performance of the bottom coating layer, while the conductive agent enables the first coating layer 1 and the second coating layer 2 to have certain conductivity, thereby avoiding the phenomenon that the insulation of the bottom coating layer greatly reduces the electrochemical performance of the battery.
[0039] In the embodiments of the present application, the mass ratio of the inorganic solid compound to the conductive agent in the second coating layer 2 is greater than the mass ratio of the inorganic solid compound to the conductive agent in the first coating layer 1. In the embodiments of the present application, the difference between the proportion of the mass of the inorganic solid compound in the total mass of the second coating layer 2 and the proportion of the mass of the inorganic solid compound in the total mass of the first coating layer 1 is 0.1%-20%, and in some specific embodiments, the difference may, for example, be 0.1%, 0.5%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 5%, 8%, 10%, 12%, 15%, 18%, or 20%. By controlling the content of the inorganic solid compound in the second coating layer 2 to be greater than the content of the inorganic solid compound in the first coating layer, the present application can make part or all of the exposed second coating layer 2 have good mechanical properties, improve the safety performance and service life of the battery, and make the first coating layer 1 better connect the current collector and the active material layer, provide a good ion transmission channel, and thus improve the cycle performance of the battery, thereby obtaining a battery pole piece with good safety performance and cycle performance.
[0040] In some embodiments, the first coating and the second coating have the same total content of inorganic solid compound and conductive agent, and the mass ratio of inorganic solid compound to conductive agent in the second coating 2 is greater than the mass ratio of inorganic solid compound to conductive agent in the first coating. In some embodiments, the first coating 1 has an electrical conductivity of 0.1 S / m to 10 S / m at 25°C, and the second coating 2 has an electrical conductivity of 0.01 S / m to 10 S / m at 25°C, and the electrical conductivity of the first coating 1 at 25°C is greater than the electrical conductivity of the second coating 2 at 25°C. In some embodiments, the first coating 1 has an electrical conductivity of, for example, 0.1 S / m, 0.2 S / m, 0.3 S / m, 0.4 S / m, 0.5 S / m, 0.8 S / m, 1 S / m, 2 S / m, 3 S / m, 4 S / m, 5 S / m, 6 S / m, 8 S / m, or 10 S / m at 25°C, and the second coating 2 has an electrical conductivity of, for example, 0.01 S / m, 0.02 S / m, 0.05 S / m, 0.1 S / m, 0.2 S / m, 0.5 S / m, 1 S / m, 2 S / m, 4 S / m, 5 S / m, 6 S / m, 8 S / m, or 10 S / m at 25°C. By controlling the mass ratio of inorganic solid compound to conductive agent in the first coating 1 and the second coating 2 within a suitable range, and thereby controlling the electrical conductivity within a suitable range, the first coating 1 and the second coating 2 can have both good safety performance and good electrical conductivity as the undercoat of the current collector 11. In addition, by controlling the electrical conductivity of the first coating 1 to be greater than the electrical conductivity of the second coating 2, the first coating 1 between the current collector 11 and the active material layer 13 can have better electrical conductivity, further improving the electronic conduction of the battery pole piece in the thickness direction, thereby improving the electrochemical performance of the battery, while the second coating 2 exposed on the surface has greater resistance, further improving its contribution to the safety performance of the battery pole piece. In some embodiments, the electrical conductivity of the undercoat 12 is greater than the electrical conductivity of the active material layer 13. The active material layer has better electrical conductivity, which can provide higher energy density for the battery, and the electrical conductivity of the undercoat is slightly lower than that of the active material layer, which can improve the safety performance of the battery pole piece.
[0041] In the embodiments of the present application, the inorganic solid compound includes one or more of zirconium oxide, magnesium oxide, silicon oxide, silicon monoxide, aluminum oxide, lithium iron phosphate, lithium manganese iron phosphate, lithium manganate, boehmite, diaspore, barium sulfate, calcium sulfate, and calcium silicate. These inorganic solid compounds have good chemical stability and thermal stability. Adding them to the first coating layer 1 and the second coating layer 2 can effectively improve the safety performance of the battery pole piece 10, allowing it to be stably used in various positive and negative electrode material systems, and not causing short circuit even when directly contacting the active material after being pierced by a needle or being mechanically abused. In the present application, the inorganic solid compound is selected according to the actual conductivity requirement of the base coating layer. The conductivity of the inorganic solid compound is affected by factors such as its particle size distribution and specific surface area. Generally speaking, the smaller the particle size of the inorganic solid compound, the larger the specific surface area, and the higher the conductivity. The second coating layer can be free of an active material layer covering it, and only high safety, i.e., low conductivity, can be considered. Therefore, the second coating layer has low conductivity. In the present application, the first coating layer is in contact with the active material layer, and it is necessary to improve the safety performance while taking into account the performance of the active material layer. The second coating layer is partially or entirely exposed, and it is mainly considered to improve the safety performance. Therefore, it is necessary to select a suitable inorganic solid compound to make the conductivity of the first coating layer 1 greater than that of the second coating layer 2. In some embodiments of the present application, the inorganic solid compound includes one or more of aluminum oxide, lithium iron phosphate, boehmite, and diaspore.

By controlling the particle size of the inorganic solid compound within a suitable range, the conductivity of the inorganic solid compound can be further adjusted in the present application. In the embodiments of the present application, the particle size D50 refers to the particle size corresponding to the particle size distribution percentage of 50%. In the embodiments of the present application, the particle size distribution is tested by a laser particle size analyzer. Specifically, first, the test optical parameters are set according to the refractive index of the material. Before adding the test sample, the dispersion medium is added to the test tank, the background value is adjusted to ensure that it is within a suitable range, the sample is dispersed in the dispersion medium, and then the test is performed.

Controlling the content of the inorganic solid compound and the conductive agent in the first coating layer 1 within a suitable range can not only ensure the safety performance of the battery, but also as much as possible improve the conductivity of the first coating layer and the energy density and charging capacity of the battery.
[0045] In the second coating layer 2, the mass percentage of the inorganic solid compound is 70%-98%, and the mass percentage of the conductive agent is 0.1%-20%. In the present application, the mass percentage of the inorganic solid compound in the second coating layer 2 refers to the mass of the inorganic solid compound in the second coating layer 2 accounting for 70%-98% of the total mass of the second coating layer 2; and the mass percentage of the conductive agent in the second coating layer 2 refers to the mass of the conductive agent in the second coating layer 2 accounting for 0.1%-20% of the total mass of the second coating layer 2. In some specific embodiments of the present application, the mass percentage of the inorganic solid compound in the second coating layer 2 may, for example, be 70%-98%, and the mass percentage of the conductive agent may, for example, be 0.1%-20%. Controlling the content of the inorganic solid compound and the conductive agent in the second coating layer 2 within a suitable range can not only ensure that the second coating layer has a certain conductivity, but also has good safety performance.
