Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field related to sulfide solid electrolytes, and in particular to a submicron sulfide solid electrolyte and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] All-solid-state batteries have attracted much attention due to their higher safety and higher energy density. As a key material of all-solid-state batteries, solid electrolytes are directly related to the cycle performance of all-solid-state batteries due to their ionic conductivity, interface contact and electrochemical stability. Sulfide solid electrolytes have excellent ionic conductivity and good interface contact, making them a research hotspot in inorganic solid electrolytes.

[0003] At present, the main methods for preparing sulfide solid electrolytes are dry ball milling and wet ball milling. The sulfide solid electrolyte prepared by dry ball milling has a larger particle size and requires further processing. The electrolyte particles prepared by wet ball milling are smaller, but there are problems such as decreased ion conductivity and poor performance. Doping with halogen elements is beneficial to improving the electrochemical stability of the electrolyte, improving the stability of contact with the positive and negative electrodes, and improving the safety and stability of all-solid-state batteries. At present, the amount of sulfide electrolytes prepared in the laboratory is small, which affects mass production and use. Therefore, how to use new processes to prepare mass production of sulfide solid electrolytes is one of the difficulties. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to propose a submicron sulfide solid electrolyte and a preparation method thereof, which can improve the safety and stability of the battery, improve the mass production capacity of the submicron sulfide electrolyte, and provide assistance for the industrialization of all-solid-state batteries.

[0012] For example, the raw material further includes metal salts, and the metal salts include one or more of Fe, Zn, Ge, Zr, Ca, Mg, Ti, and Ag.

[0013] For example, the mechanical grinding of the raw materials is carried out in a high-speed mixer, a planetary ball mill, a horizontal ball mill, or a jet mill.

[0014] For example, when the raw materials are mechanically ground, the pressure in the ball mill is 800 Pa to 1000 Pa, the ball-to-material ratio is (20 to 60):1, the ball mill speed is 10 r / min to 50 r / min, and the ball mill time is 2 h to 4 h.

[0016] For example, when mechanically grinding the large-particle sulfide solid electrolyte, the ball-to-material ratio is (20 to 60):1, the liquid-to-material ratio is 1:(20 to 60), the ball milling speed is 100 r / min to 2800 r / min, and the ball milling time is 0.5 h to 4 h.

[0017] For example, mechanical grinding of the large-particle sulfide solid electrolyte is performed in a ball milling solvent, and the ball milling solvent includes one or more of cyclohexane, xylene, o-xylene, 2-xylene, n-heptane, dimethyl carbonate, and isobutyl isobutyrate.
