Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of batteries, and in particular relates to a functional ionic liquid additive, an electrolyte and a high-voltage lithium-ion battery. Background Art

[0002] As battery energy density increases, the voltage of cathode materials continues to rise, pushing the electrochemical window of electrolytes to a wider range. As a result, the electrochemical window of conventional electrolytes can no longer meet the requirements of high-voltage materials. For example, the voltage platform of lithium nickel manganese oxide is 4.7V, while conventional electrolytes begin to oxidatively decompose at 4.3V, degrading the cathode interface and failing to fully utilize the advantages of high-voltage materials. Furthermore, conventional electrolytes also present a series of issues such as volatility, flammability, and environmental impact. To overcome these issues, ionic liquids have been introduced as an alternative electrolyte or additive. Due to their low volatility, high chemical stability, and wide electrochemical window, they have attracted considerable attention in the field of high-voltage electrolytes. Furthermore, the formation of a stable SEI film is crucial. An unstable SEI film will break down during battery cycling, consuming a large amount of active lithium. Furthermore, the accumulation of the SEI film increases the energy barrier for ion transport, leading to slow interfacial kinetics. Therefore, it is essential to fine-tune the interfacial reactions and generate a uniform, stable, and robust SEI film. In recent years, anion-derived SEI has shown great advantages in improving the electrochemical performance of batteries due to its high mechanical strength, high ionic conductivity, and fast ion diffusion.

[0003] At present, the commonly used cations in electrolytes are imidazolium cations, piperidinium cations, pyrrole cations, quaternary ammonium cations, etc., and the anions are PF 6- , BF 4- , bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide anion (FSI - ), bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl imide) anion (TFSI - ) etc. However, existing ionic liquid electrolytes still have some challenges, including high viscosity and less than ideal anion thermal stability and high-voltage stability. Although most ionic liquid anions can form a stable SEI film on the negative electrode surface, the protection of the positive electrode is weaker than that of the negative electrode. In addition, the solvation ability of the anion is the key to the formation of anion-derived SEI film, which is highly dependent on the competitive coordination between solvent-cation and anion-cation. By introducing weakly solvating solvents or anions with strong coordination ability, more anions can be achieved to participate in the solvation configuration coordination at conventional concentrations, thereby changing the solvation structure of the electrolyte.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to develop a new type of ionic liquid with low viscosity, high oxidation potential, and not easy to decompose under high pressure. The anion can form an effective passivation film at the positive electrode, effectively reducing the phase change and interfacial side reactions of the positive electrode material under high pressure, thereby meeting the long cycle requirements of high-voltage system batteries. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In view of this, the technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a functional ionic liquid additive, an electrolyte and a high-voltage lithium-ion battery; the structure of the functional ionic liquid additive is composed of cations and anions, both of which have large ionic radius and are easy to dissociate, and the smaller radius Li + It is easier to combine with anions, thus changing the solvation structure of the electrolyte. More functional anions participate in the solvation sheath, which can achieve more anions participating in the solvation configuration coordination at conventional concentrations, thereby ultimately inducing the formation of anion-derived SEI film, which contains more LiF with high Young's modulus, so it is thin and strong, and not easy to break during the cycle. At the same time, the functional groups contained in the cationic groups can alleviate the damage of the free acid in the electrolyte to the positive and negative electrode interface films, further improving the interface stability, thereby intuitively improving the high-temperature cycle performance of the battery.

[0037] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0038] (1) The novel functional ionic liquid compound proposed in the present invention is used as an electrolyte additive in lithium-ion batteries and has the advantages of low vapor pressure and wide electrochemical window of ionic liquids. At the same time, compared with traditional pyrrole ionic liquids, the anion and cation molecular structure of this ionic liquid is relatively small, the intermolecular force is weak, and the viscosity is low. In addition, the introduction of trimethylsilane into the pyrrole cation increases the polarity of the ionic liquid, reduces the intermolecular force, and further reduces the viscosity of the ionic liquid.

[0039] (2) The novel functional ionic liquid compound proposed in the present invention has a structure in which both anions and cations have large ionic radii, resulting in weak complexing ability and easy dissociation. The smaller radius of Li+ makes it easier for anions to bind to anions, thereby changing the solvation structure of the electrolyte. More functional anions participate in the solvation sheath, enabling more anions to participate in solvation configuration coordination at conventional concentrations, thereby forming an anion-derived high-stability SEI film. At the same time, the special functional groups contained in the anion and cation structures can also play a role in scavenging free acids in the electrolyte and complexing and stabilizing high-valent transition metals, thereby further improving the electrochemical performance of high-voltage lithium-ion batteries.

[0147] Table 1. Electrolyte compositions and corresponding battery performances of various examples and comparative examples

[0148]

[0149]

[0150]

[0151] From the performance test results of lithium ion batteries prepared using the electrolytes prepared in Examples 1 to 8 and Comparative Examples 1 to 3 in Table 1, it can be seen that the functional ionic liquid provided by the present invention has a larger anion and cation radius than the traditional ionic liquid, which changes the solvation structure of the electrolyte, allowing more anions to participate in the formation of a highly stable SEI film, thereby improving the high-voltage and high-temperature tolerance of the positive and negative electrode interfaces, and greatly improving the high-voltage cycle performance of the battery.

[0152] This is because, compared with Comparative Examples 2 and 3, the functional ionic liquids provided by the present invention in Examples 1 to 6 have relatively small anion and cation molecular structures, weak intermolecular forces, and low viscosity. In addition, the introduction of trimethylsilane into the pyrrole cation increases the polarity of the ionic liquid, reduces the intermolecular forces, further reduces the viscosity of the ionic liquid, and optimizes the SEI film composition, thereby reducing impedance and improving the low-temperature discharge performance of the battery.

[0153] Moreover, compared with Comparative Examples 2 and 3, the special functional groups contained in the anion and cation structures of Examples 1 to 8, namely trimethylsilyl and cyano, can also play the role of removing free acids in the electrolyte, complexing and stabilizing high-valent transition metals, etc., reducing the continuous side reactions during high-voltage cycling, and reducing the DCIR of the battery, thereby further improving the high-temperature electrochemical performance of the high-voltage lithium-ion battery.

[0154] Compared with Examples 6, 7, and 8, the optimal addition of functional ionic liquid is 2%. If the addition amount is too small, the performance improvement will be small. If the addition amount is too large, the membrane impedance will increase, the battery DCIR will increase, and the cycle performance will deteriorate.

[0155] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present invention may be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the essence and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention.
