[0030] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0031] The inventors found through research that when a specific relationship is satisfied between the lithium supplementation amount of the battery and the pore size of the negative electrode, while compensating for the loss of active lithium during the operation of the battery, the lithium supplementation state under different pore distributions can be optimized, enabling the battery to have excellent power performance, fast charging performance, and high and low temperature performance. Detailed Description of the Specific Embodiments
[0032] The following provides a detailed description of the specific embodiments of the present invention. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only for the purpose of illustrating and explaining the present invention, and are not used to limit the present invention.
[0033] In the ranges disclosed herein, the endpoints and any values are not limited to the exact ranges or values. These ranges or values should be understood to include values close to these ranges or values. For numerical ranges, between the endpoint values of each range, between the endpoint values of each range and individual point values, and between individual point values, they can be combined with each other to obtain one or more new numerical ranges, and these numerical ranges should be regarded as specifically disclosed herein.
[0034] The first aspect of the present invention provides a battery, which includes a negative electrode. The negative electrode includes a negative electrode active material layer. In the negative electrode active material layer, the sum of the volumes of pores with a size ≥ 1 μm and the pore volume of all pores is X, and the ratio of the lithium supplementation capacity of the battery to the capacity of the battery other than the lithium supplementation capacity is Y (hereinafter referred to as the lithium supplementation capacity ratio). X and Y satisfy: 0.2X < Y < 1.33X. The lithium supplementation capacity of the battery can be understood as the capacity contributed by the lithium supplement during the normal use cycle of the battery (capacity attenuation less than 20%), and the capacity of the battery other than the lithium supplementation capacity refers to the remaining capacity other than the capacity contributed by the lithium supplement during the normal use cycle of the battery (capacity attenuation less than 20%).
[0035] In the negative electrode active material layer, the ratio of the sum of the volumes of pores with a size ≥ 1 μm to the pore volume of all pores is X. That is to say, for the negative electrode active material layer, its pore volume is V0, and the sum of the volumes of pores with a size ≥ 1 μm is V1, and X = V1 / V0.
[0036] The battery described in the present invention can be various common batteries in the art. Its composition can be the same as or different from that of common batteries in the art. In addition to including a negative electrode, it can also include a positive electrode, a separator, an electrolyte, and / or a solid electrolyte, etc. In some embodiments, in addition to the negative electrode active material layer, the negative electrode may further include a negative electrode current collector. The negative electrode current collector can be, for example, a carbon-coated copper foil or an uncoated copper foil, etc. The negative electrode active material layer can be disposed on one or both surfaces in the thickness direction of the negative electrode current collector. The negative electrode active material layer includes a negative electrode active material; in some embodiments, the negative electrode active material layer includes a negative electrode active material, a binder, and a conductive agent; in some embodiments, the negative electrode active material layer further includes a lithium supplement agent. The lithium supplement agent in the negative electrode active material layer can exist in the form of being mixed with the negative electrode active material, and / or the lithium supplement agent in the negative electrode active material layer can exist in the form of a separate negative electrode lithium supplement layer.
[0037] The inventors of the present invention surprisingly found through research that a battery in which X and Y satisfy the above relationship can enable batteries with negative electrodes having different pore distributions to balance power performance, fast charging performance, and high and low temperature performance. Exemplarily, X and Y can satisfy: Y = 0.25X, Y = 0.3X, Y = 0.4X, Y = 0.5X, Y = 0.6X, Y = 0.7X, Y = 0.8X, Y = 0.9X, Y = X, Y = 1.1X, Y = 1.2X, or Y = 1.25X, etc.
[0038] In specific embodiments, lithium can be supplemented to both the positive electrode and the negative electrode simultaneously, or lithium can be supplemented only to the positive electrode or the negative electrode. When there is no lithium supplementation to the positive electrode, Y is the proportion of the lithium supplementation capacity of the negative electrode; when there is no lithium supplementation to the negative electrode, Y is the proportion of the lithium supplementation capacity of the positive electrode; when both the positive electrode and the negative electrode are supplemented with lithium, Y is the sum of the proportion of the lithium supplementation capacity of the negative electrode and the proportion of the lithium supplementation capacity of the positive electrode.
[0039] In some embodiments, 0.2X < Y < 0.9X. Thus, the power performance, fast charging performance, and high and low temperature performance of the battery can be further improved. Exemplarily, X and Y can satisfy: Y = 0.25X, Y = 0.3X, Y = 0.35X, Y = 0.4X, Y = 0.45X, Y = 0.5X, Y = 0.55X, Y = 0.6X, Y = 0.65X, Y = 0.7X, Y = 0.75X, Y = 0.8X, or Y = 0.85X, etc.
[0040] In some embodiments, X can be 0.1% to 30%. When X is within the range of 0.1% to 30%, the negative electrode can have good structural stability, energy density, and rate performance. In a more specific embodiment, when X is 15%, that is, the ratio of the sum of the pore volumes of pores with a size of ≥1 μm in the negative electrode active material layer to the total pore volume of all pores is 15%, the lithium supplementation capacity ratio of the battery is 3% < Y < 19.95%. In some embodiments, X is 14% to 28%. Specifically, for example, X can be 14%, 15%, 16%, 17%, 18%, 19%, 20%, 21%, 22%, 23%, 24%, 25%, 26%, 27%, or 28%. In some more preferred embodiments, X satisfies 16% ≤ X ≤ 26%.
[0041] In some embodiments, the battery further includes a positive electrode, and the positive electrode and / or the negative electrode includes a self-supporting electrode membrane. The self-supporting electrode membrane refers to an electrode membrane that can be independently formed without relying on a current collector for support.
[0042] In the present invention, the ratio of the sum of the pore volumes of pores with a size of ≥1 μm in the negative electrode active material layer to the total pore volume of all pores is X, which is obtained by testing and calculating through mercury intrusion porosimetry.
[0043] In the present invention, the detection method for the lithium supplementation capacity ratio is as follows:
[0044] (1) When the end product is a battery:
[0045] The detection method for the lithium supplementation capacity ratio of the positive electrode is as follows: First, adjust the SOC state of the battery to 0%, then disassemble the battery, and take out the complete positive electrode A1, negative electrode B1, and electrolyte.
[0046] [[ID=z18]]Assemble the positive electrode A1 and the negative electrode B1 into a battery, place the battery in an environment at 25°C for 10 h, and perform an electrochemical test of full charge (100% SOC) / full discharge (0% SOC) on the battery at a current of 0.1C, and the first-cycle discharge specific capacity obtained is C1. Assemble the positive electrode A1 and the non-lithium-supplemented and non-formed negative electrode B2 (except not using a lithium supplementing agent, the negative electrode B2 uses the same material composition and electrode structure as the negative electrode B1) into a battery, place the battery in an environment at 25°C for 10 h, charge the current to the full charge state (100% SOC) at a current of 0.1C, put it in an oven at 45°C for high-temperature storage for 24 h, then transfer it to an environment at 25°C to cool for 10 h. After the temperature inside and outside the battery returns to room temperature, discharge the battery completely at a current of 0.1C (0% SOC), and the first-cycle discharge specific capacity obtained is C2. The lithium supplementation capacity ratio of the positive electrode Y = (C1 - C2) / C2.
[0047] The detection method for the proportion of lithium compensation capacity in the negative electrode is as follows: adjust the SOC state of the lithium-compensated battery to 0%, then disassemble the battery and take out the complete positive electrode A3 and negative electrode B3.
[0048] Adjust the SOC state of the non-lithium-compensated battery (except for using the lithium compensator, the non-lithium-compensated battery uses the same material composition and structure as the lithium-compensated battery) to 0%, then disassemble the battery and take out the complete positive electrode A4 and negative electrode B4. Assemble the negative electrode B3 with lithium metal to form a battery, then place the battery in an environment at 25°C for 10 h, and perform a complete de-lithiation test with a current of 0.1C. The obtained specific capacity is C3. Assemble the negative electrode B4 with lithium metal to form a battery, then place the battery in an environment at 25°C for 10 h, and perform a complete de-lithiation test with a current of 0.1C. The obtained specific capacity is C4. Then the proportion of additional pre-stored lithium is Y 额外 =(C3 - C4) / C2;
[0049] Assemble the positive electrode A3 and the negative electrode B3 to form a battery, then place the battery in an environment at 25°C for 10 h, and perform an electrochemical test of full charge (100% SOC) / full discharge (0% SOC) on the battery with a current of 0.1C. The obtained discharge specific capacity is C5. Assemble the positive electrode A3 and the non-lithium-compensated and non-formed negative electrode B5 (except for not using the lithium compensator, the negative electrode B5 uses the same material composition and electrode structure as the negative electrode B3) to form a battery, and perform an electrochemical test of full charge (100% SOC) / full discharge (0% SOC). The obtained first-cycle discharge specific capacity is C6. Then the proportion of the consumed lithium compensation capacity in the negative electrode is Y 消耗 =(C5 - C6) / C6. So the total proportion of lithium compensation Y = Y 额外 + Y 消耗 .
[0050] The second aspect of the present invention provides a method for preparing the battery described above. The method includes: preparing a negative electrode to make the battery satisfy 0.2X < Y < 1.33X;
[0051] Wherein, the negative electrode includes a negative electrode active material layer, X is the ratio of the sum of the volumes of pores with a size ≥ 1 μm in the negative electrode active material layer to the total pore volume of all pores; Y is the ratio of the lithium compensation capacity of the battery to the capacity of the battery other than the lithium compensation capacity.
[0052] In the specific implementation manner, the negative electrode can be prepared first, so that the ratio of the sum of the volumes of pores with a size ≥ 1 μm in the negative electrode to the total pore volume is X. According to the relationship of 0.2X < Y < 1.33X, adjust and control the total proportion Y of the lithium compensation capacity of the battery, and then control the dosage of the lithium compensator. In the preferred implementation manner, 0.2X < Y < 0.9X, and X is 16% - 26%.
[0053] In the method described in the present invention, controlling the amount of the lithium supplement agent specifically refers to controlling the amount of the lithium supplement agent based on the amount of available active lithium that can actually be exerted in the lithium supplement agent. Generally, the theoretical active lithium of the lithium supplement agent is not the same as the amount of available active lithium that can actually be exerted. Different lithium supplement materials have different ratios of available active lithium. The amount of available active lithium for each lithium supplement material can be calculated according to the amount known to those skilled in the art or provided by the lithium supplement supplier.
[0054] In actual applications, the lithium supplement capacity is used to convert the amount of lithium supplement agent used. For the same lithium supplement capacity, the amount of lithium supplement agent used will be different when using different lithium supplement agents. It needs to be calculated based on the chemical formula of lithium supplement. Therefore, it is only necessary to emphasize the lithium supplement capacity to control the amount of lithium supplement agent used (there are many types of lithium supplement agents).

[0240] S23. The slurry obtained in step S22 is sieved and then sprayed on both sides of aluminum foil, dried at a drying temperature of 125° C., and then rolled to obtain a positive electrode with a thickness of 190 μm.
[0241] Batteries were assembled using the positive and negative electrodes prepared in the Examples and Comparative Examples, along with a separator (polyethylene / polypropylene composite film) and an electrolyte (the electrolyte was a 1.2 mol / L LiPF6 solution, and the solvent was a mixed solvent of ethylene carbonate:ethyl methyl carbonate:dimethyl carbonate:diethyl carbonate:fluoroethylene carbonate in a mass ratio of 23:25:24:28:15). The batteries were then formed and tested for fast charge performance, cycle stability, and rate discharge capability. For each performance in each Example and Comparative Example, at least three parallel samples were run, and the results were averaged, as shown in Tables 1 and 2.
[0242] The test method is:
[0243] 1. Fast charging capability test: The expansion thickness of the battery cell at different charging rates is evaluated using an in-situ expansion analyzer. This can determine the lithium deposition voltage and SOC window of the battery cell at different charging rates. It is a non-destructive lithium deposition detection method. Specifically, the SOC window at the thickness inflection point during the charging rate (7C, 6.5C, 6C, 5.5C, 5C, 4.5C, 4C, 3.5C, 3C, 2.5C, 2C, 1.5C, 1C, 0.5C, 0.33C) is calculated. Push forward 20% as the SOC at which lithium deposition begins at this rate; the fast charging process starts charging at a high rate (such as 7C). When the SOC at which lithium deposition begins is reached, jump to the next rate (such as 6.5C) to continue charging at the SOC at which lithium deposition begins, then jump to the next rate (such as 5.5C) to continue charging at the SOC at which lithium deposition begins until the battery is charged to 80% SOC. The sum of the charging time at each rate is calculated as the battery's 0-80% SOC fast charging time. Comparing the time required for the battery to charge from 10% SOC to 80% SOC is used as a parameter to measure fast charging capability.
[0244] 2. Cycle performance: At 25°C, charge each battery at 1C to an upper voltage of 3.8V, then discharge at 1C to a lower voltage of 2.0V. This cycle is counted as one. Repeat this cycle for 1000 cycles. Record the discharge capacity at the 1000th cycle. Calculate the residual capacity after 1000 cycles of 1C charge and 1C discharge: residual capacity = discharge capacity at the 1000th cycle / discharge capacity at the first cycle.
[0245] 3. Room temperature rate discharge capacity: At 25°C, the battery is fully charged to 100% SOC at a current of 0.33C, and discharged to 0% SOC at a current of 0.33C. The capacity at this time is C1. The battery is then fully charged to 100% SOC at a current of 0.33C, and discharged to 0% SOC at a rate of 3C. The capacity at this time is C2. The room temperature 3C rate discharge capacity is C2 / C1.
[0246] 4. Low temperature (10°C) rate discharge capacity: At 25°C, the battery is fully charged to 100% SOC at a current of 0.33C, and discharged to 0% SOC at a current of 0.33C. The capacity at this time is calculated as C1. The battery is then fully charged to 100% SOC at a current of 0.33C, placed at low temperature (10°C) for 8 hours to make the internal and external temperatures of the battery cell consistent, and discharged to 0% SOC at a rate of 3C. The capacity at this time is calculated as C3, and the low temperature 3C rate discharge capacity is C3 / C1.
