Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of lithium-ion batteries, and in particular to a composite solid electrolyte and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the increasing use of electronic devices and electric vehicles, battery researchers are conducting extensive research on solid-state lithium batteries with high energy density, good flexibility, and high safety to meet consumer demand. Solid-state lithium batteries are considered one of the most promising next-generation lithium battery technologies. With continuous technological breakthroughs and the reduction of large-scale production costs, solid-state lithium batteries have significant advantages in safety, energy density, cycle life, and other aspects, and their industrialization process is expected to accelerate. However, solid-state lithium battery technology still faces many bottlenecks, such as the selection of electrolyte materials, solid-solid interface contact, and fast charging performance.

[0003] Solid-state lithium batteries are categorized as all-solid-state and semi-solid-state batteries, and the solid electrolytes involved primarily include oxide electrolytes, sulfide electrolytes, polymer electrolytes, or composite electrolytes of any combination. Compared to polymer electrolytes or inorganic solid electrolytes, organic-inorganic composite solid electrolytes can effectively balance the electrochemical properties of inorganic electrolytes and the mechanical properties of polymer electrolytes through the synergistic effects between their components, and effectively inhibit the dendrite growth of lithium metal electrodes during charge and discharge.

[0004] However, composite solid electrolytes still have the following problems: First, the weak organic-inorganic interaction in the composite solid electrolyte leads to phase separation and uneven dispersion of inorganic nanoparticles within the composite solid electrolyte, hindering the migration of lithium ions around the interphase and reducing ionic conductivity; Second, lithium ions easily deposit at the organic-inorganic interface and form lithium dendrites, which continue to diffuse within the composite solid electrolyte and eventually cause a short circuit in the battery. Therefore, from the above defects, it can be seen that strengthening the organic-inorganic interaction in the composite solid electrolyte and improving the affinity between the phases are key factors in enhancing the electrochemical performance of the composite solid electrolyte.

[0005] In view of this, the present invention is proposed. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The second object of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing the composite solid electrolyte, which is simple, easy to operate, mild in conditions, low in cost, and can meet the needs of achieving mass production.

[0008] A third object of the present invention is to provide a lithium ion battery.

[0012] Wherein, the cross-linking agent includes isocyanate compounds.

[0013] A method for preparing the composite solid electrolyte comprises the following steps:

[0014] A uniform suspension containing an inorganic solid electrolyte is prepared, and then a cross-linking agent is added to perform a first heat treatment; after the first heat treatment is completed, polyethylene glycol is added to perform a second heat treatment; after the second heat treatment is completed, polyethylene oxide and a lithium salt are added to perform a third heat treatment to obtain a composite slurry;

[0015] The composite slurry is coated on a support plate, and the support plate is peeled off after drying to obtain a composite solid electrolyte.

[0016] A lithium-ion battery comprises the composite solid electrolyte.

[0017] An electrical device comprises the lithium-ion battery.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0019] The present invention provides a composite solid electrolyte that optimizes the organic-inorganic compatibility in a solid electrolyte based on an isocyanate compound, and has outstanding effects such as high conductivity and stable interface contact at room temperature. Specifically, the present invention uses a cross-linking agent containing a specific group (isocyanate group), an inorganic solid electrolyte, and polyethylene glycol to undergo a nucleophilic addition reaction, so that the inorganic solid electrolyte can be cleverly linked to the polyethylene glycol through a chemical bond via the isocyanate group, thereby optimizing the interface between the organic and inorganic; the hydroxyl groups on the surface of the inorganic solid electrolyte will undergo an addition reaction with the isocyanate group to generate a carbamate, thereby constructing an organic-inorganic hybrid cross-linked network between the inorganic solid electrolyte, the isocyanate group, and the polyethylene glycol.

[0020] In the present invention, the inorganic solid electrolyte has good ion transport and a wide electrochemical window, which not only accelerates the transmission speed of lithium ions but also effectively improves the electrochemical window, improves the conductivity of the room temperature electrolyte membrane without reducing the mechanical properties of the membrane, and makes the electrolyte membrane have good interface compatibility with the lithium metal negative electrode, optimizes the impedance of the organic-inorganic interface, thereby improving the cycle performance and rate performance of the battery.

[0106] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 The transmission electron microscope (TEM) image of LLZTO@TDI in the control example is provided as shown; Figure 1 、 Figure 2 It can be seen that a nucleophilic addition reaction occurs between p-phenylene diisocyanate and the hydroxyl group of LLZTO, indicating that LLZTO and polyethylene glycol can be cleverly linked together through a chemical bond via the isocyanate group.

[0107] like Figure 3 The figure shows the infrared spectra of the composite solid electrolyte (F-30) prepared in Example 1, LLZTO@TDI, paraphenylene diisocyanate (TDI), polyethylene oxide (PEO) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) of the control example; Figure 3 It can be seen that in the infrared spectrum of p-phenylene diisocyanate, at 2270 cm -1 The characteristic absorption peak of isocyanate group (-NCO) is at 1521cm, while the characteristic peak of -NCO disappears in the infrared spectrum of LLZTO@TDI, and a new -NH (1521cm -1 )、-C=O(1657cm -1 ) absorption band appears; indicating that esterification reaction occurs between hydroxyl group and isocyanate; further, in the infrared spectrum of composite solid electrolyte F-30, at 3433cm -1 The stretching vibration peak of -OH is at 1099cm -1 is the stretching vibration peak of COC, indicating that polyethylene glycol was successfully grafted onto the LLZTO surface through p-phenylene diisocyanate.

[0108] like Figure 4 As shown, Figure 4 (a) Provides X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectra of LLZTO@TDI and LLZTO as control examples, where the “80-0457” curve corresponds to the XRD data standard card curve of LLZTO; Figure 4(b) provided the X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectrum of the composite solid-state electrolyte corresponding to Example 1 (F-30), the composite solid-state electrolyte corresponding to Example 2 (F-10), the composite solid-state electrolyte corresponding to Example 3 (F-20), the composite solid-state electrolyte corresponding to Example 4 (F-40), and the LLZTO@TDI corresponding to the control (F-0); from Figure 4 It can be seen that there is no obvious difference between LLZTO@TDI and LLZTO in XRD, which indicates that LLZTO can still maintain the original crystal structure in the surface modification process; further through Figure 4 (b) It can be seen that, compared with the pure organic polymer, the embedding of LLZTO reduces the crystallinity of the polymer electrolyte, indicating that the amorphous phase region in the polymer electrolyte increases, thereby improving the ionic conductivity.

[0109] As Figure 5 shown, the ion conductivity-temperature curve of the composite solid-state electrolyte is provided, wherein 0%, 20%, 30%, and 40% correspond to the composite solid-state electrolyte obtained in the control, Example 3, Example 1, and Example 4, respectively; from Figure 5 It can be seen that, under the premise that the film thickness is about 140 μm, the ion conductivity of the examples is obviously improved compared with the control at any temperature, because the Lewis acid-base reaction between LLZTO and the polymer chain segment reduces the crystallinity of the polymer and enhances the migration of Li + in the polymer chain; with the increase of temperature, the ion conductivity of the examples is further increased.
