Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of energy storage, and more specifically, to an electrochemical device and an electronic device. Background Art

[0002] Electrochemical devices such as lithium-ion batteries are widely used in portable electronic products, electric vehicles, aerospace, energy storage and other fields due to their high energy density, good cycle performance, safety, environmental protection and no memory effect. However, during the charging and discharging process of lithium-ion batteries, the electrolyte easily reacts at the positive and negative electrodes of the battery, which is not conducive to the cycle performance, safety performance and low-temperature discharge performance of lithium-ion batteries. Summary of the invention

[0003] The present application provides an electrochemical device and an electronic device. The positive and negative electrode sheets in the electrochemical device of the present application have high film-forming quality, which can greatly improve the cycle performance, safety performance and low-temperature discharge performance of the electrochemical device.

[0004] In a first aspect, the present application provides an electrochemical device, which includes a positive electrode sheet, a negative electrode sheet and an electrolyte, wherein the electrolyte includes a compound of formula I and a compound of formula II. The compound of formula I is: R is selected from any one of fluorine-substituted or unsubstituted C2-C6 alkyl, C6-C12 nitrogen-containing heterocyclic group, and fluorine-substituted or unsubstituted C6-C12 aryl group; the compound of formula II is: Wherein R1 is selected from O or -CH(R a )-, and R a Any one selected from H, F, C1-C5 alkyl, C1-C5 alkoxy; R2, R3 are each independently selected from any one selected from H, F, C1-C5 alkyl, C1-C5 alkoxy, C2-C5 alkenyl, C2-C5 alkynyl; R4 is selected from any one selected from H, F, fluorine-substituted or unsubstituted C1-C5 alkyl, C1-C5 alkoxy, C2-C5 alkenyl, C2-C5 alkynyl. Based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass percentage of the compound of formula I is a%, and the mass percentage of the compound of formula II is b%, 1≤a≤50, 0.5≤a / b≤500.

[0005] In the above technical scheme, the sulfonyl fluoride group of the compound of formula I makes it have good antioxidant ability, and its viscosity is also low. When the content of the compound of formula I in the electrolyte is above 1wt%, the viscosity of the electrolyte is significantly reduced, and the stability can also be improved, which is beneficial to improve the low-temperature discharge performance and cycle performance of the electrochemical device; however, the inventors found that when there are too many compounds of formula I in the electrolyte, not only a thicker SEI film (i.e., solid electrolyte interface film) will be formed on the surface of the negative electrode plate, but also the electrolyte will have a reduced solubility for lithium salts, which will not only reduce the safety performance of the electrochemical device, but also be detrimental to the discharge performance of the electrochemical device. The inventors also found that the compound of formula II in the electrolyte can generate a polymer containing a heterocyclic ring, which can form a tough protective film on the negative electrode plate. The protective film can inhibit the continuous reaction of the compound of formula I, thereby improving the safety performance of the electrochemical device, and also improving the discharge performance of the electrochemical device; but the content of the compound of formula II should not be too high, otherwise the impedance of the protective film will increase, which is detrimental to the cycle performance and low-temperature discharge performance of the electrochemical device. In addition, the inventors also found that the mass percentage ratio of the compound of formula I and the compound of formula II in the electrolyte needs to be in the range of 0.5 to 500; if the mass ratio is too low, the protective performance of the protective film formed by the compound of formula II is insufficient, which is not conducive to the safety performance of the electrochemical device; if the mass ratio is too high, the impedance of the protective film is too large, which is not conducive to the cycle performance of the electrochemical device.

[0017] In the above technical solution, the third component can further reduce the impedance of the interface film in the electrochemical device and improve the stability of the interface film after synergistic action with the compound of formula II, thereby improving the cycle performance and low-temperature discharge performance of the electrochemical device.

[0018] In a possible implementation, the electrolyte also includes a fourth component, which includes at least one of 1,3-propane sultone, 3-fluoro-1,3-propane sultone, 1,4-butane sultone, methane disulfonic acid methylene ester, vinyl sulfate, and glyoxal disulfate; based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass percentage of the fourth component is e%, where 0.1≤e≤6.

[0028] It should be noted that in the specific embodiments of the present application, a lithium-ion battery is used as an example of an electrochemical device to explain the present application, but the electrochemical device of the present application is not limited to a lithium-ion battery.

[0029] The present application provides an electrochemical device, which includes a positive electrode sheet, a negative electrode sheet and an electrolyte, wherein the electrolyte includes a compound of formula I and a compound of formula II. The compound of formula I is as follows:

[0030]

[0031] Wherein, R is selected from any one of fluorine-substituted or unsubstituted C2-C6 alkyl, C6-C12 nitrogen-containing heterocyclic group, and fluorine-substituted or unsubstituted C6-C12 aryl;

[0032] The compound of formula II is as follows:

[0033]

Based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass percentage of the compound of formula I is a%, and the mass percentage of the compound of formula II is b%, 1≤a≤50, 0.5≤a / b≤500. Preferably, 2≤a≤10; for example, a can be 5, 7.3, 8.6, 10, 13, 24, 30, 34, 39.7, 43.2, 50, etc. or a range consisting of any two of the above values.

In addition, the inventors also found that the mass percentage ratio of the compound of formula I and the compound of formula II in the electrolyte needs to be in the range of 0.5 to 500; if the mass ratio is too low, the protective performance of the protective film formed by the compound of formula II is insufficient, which is not conducive to the safety performance of the electrochemical device; if the mass ratio is too high, the impedance of the protective film is too large, which is not conducive to the cycle performance of the electrochemical device.

[0058] Example

[0059] The following examples and comparative examples are given to more specifically describe the embodiments of the present application. Various tests and evaluations were performed according to the following methods. In addition, unless otherwise specified, "parts" and "%" are based on mass.

[0060] Test methods and equipment:

[0061] Cycle performance test:

[0062] The cycle performance of the electrochemical device is evaluated by the capacity retention rate after 400 cycles at 45° C. The greater the capacity retention rate after 400 cycles at 45° C., the better the cycle performance of the electrochemical device.

[0063] The electrochemical device was placed in a 45°C thermostat and allowed to stand for 30 minutes to allow the electrochemical device to reach a constant temperature. The electrochemical device that reached a constant temperature was charged to 4.5V at 0.2C constant current at 45°C, charged to 0.05C at 4.5V, allowed to stand for 5 minutes, and then discharged to 3.0V at 0.2C constant current, allowed to stand for 5 minutes, and the initial discharge capacity C0 of the electrochemical device was tested; then charged to 4.15V at 1.8C constant current, and charged to 1C at 4.15V constant voltage; then charged to 4.25V at 1C constant current, and then charged to 0.8C at 4.25V constant voltage; then charged to 4.5V at 0.8C constant current, and then charged to 0.05C at 4.5V constant voltage; left for 5 minutes; then discharged to 3.0V at 1C constant current, and allowed to stand for 5 minutes. This is one charge and discharge cycle. The electrochemical device was cycled 400 times according to the above charge / discharge cycle steps, and the discharge capacity C1 of the electrochemical device after 400 cycles was measured.

[0064] The capacity retention rate after 400 cycles at 45°C = C1 / C0×100%.

[0065] Safety performance test:

[0066] The electrochemical device is discharged at 0.2C constant current to 3.0V at 25℃, then charged at 0.5C constant current to 4.5V, and then charged at 4.5V to 0.05C constant voltage. Place it in a high temperature furnace at 130℃, 131℃, 132℃, 133℃, 134℃ or 135℃ for 1 hour. After 1 hour, observe whether the electrochemical device catches fire. If it does not catch fire, it is judged to have passed. The pass rate is recorded as N / 10, which means that N of the 10 electrochemical devices tested passed the test.

[0067] Hot box performance judgment standard: Under different temperatures, the higher the temperature without ignition, the better the hot box performance and the better the thermal safety performance; under the same temperature, the higher the pass rate, the better the hot box performance and the better the thermal safety performance. For example, the test results of 5 / 10 at 133°C are better than the test results of 3 / 10 at 133°C, and the test results of 3 / 10 at 133°C are better than the test results of 5 / 10 at 132°C. The specific data of the hot box test of the electrochemical device in each embodiment and comparative example are shown in the table.

[0068] Low temperature discharge performance test:

[0069] The electrochemical device was charged to 4.5V at 0.2C at 25°C, then charged to a cut-off current of 0.02C at a constant voltage of 4.5V, and then discharged at a constant current of 0.2C for 4h. The temperature was adjusted to -20°C, and after keeping warm for 30min, 0.4C was discharged for 1s, 0.1C was discharged for 2s, and this step (0.4C discharge for 1s, 0.1C discharge for 2s) was repeated until the voltage was lower than 3V. The number of cycles at this time was recorded, which was the number of low-temperature pull-load cycles. The higher the number of low-temperature pull-load cycles, the better the low-temperature discharge performance.
