Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of secondary battery materials technology, and in particular to a composite lithium replenishment material, a lithium replenishment cathode, and a lithium-ion battery. Background Technology
[0002] Lithium-ion batteries are widely used in products such as 3C (computers, communications, and consumer electronics), electric vehicles, and power tools due to their numerous advantages, including high energy density, long cycle life, and no memory effect. However, during the first charge and discharge cycle, the electrolyte decomposes on the negative electrode surface, forming a solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) film. This permanently consumes some lithium ions from the positive electrode, resulting in a lower coulombic efficiency (ICE) during the first cycle, thus reducing the battery's capacity and energy density. Furthermore, during cyclic storage, the consumption of active lithium also leads to capacity decay, further reducing battery life.
[0003] In related technologies, the above problems can be solved by adding additional active lithium. Currently, there are two main methods: positive electrode lithium replenishment and negative electrode lithium replenishment. Negative electrode lithium replenishment is less commonly used due to its lower safety profile, while positive electrode lithium replenishment is more prevalent. However, simply replenishing the positive electrode of a lithium-ion battery also has shortcomings: since one reason for cycle capacity decay is the consumption of active lithium during SEI reforming, simply replenishing the positive electrode cannot improve SEI stability or reduce the rate of active lithium consumption; on the other hand, because lithium resources are relatively expensive, replenishment inevitably increases the battery's production cost.
[0004] Therefore, it is of great significance to address the problems of current cathode lithium replenishment materials, such as their inability to improve SEI stability and excessive cost, and to provide a composite lithium replenishment material that can improve SEI stability and reduce cycle decay rate. Summary of the Invention

[0103] Performance testing
[0104] Gram capacity test
[0105] Five lithium-ion secondary batteries from the comparative example and the embodiment were taken and charged at a constant current rate of 0.1C at room temperature until the voltage reached 3.8V.

[0106] Cyclic performance test
[0107] Five lithium-ion secondary batteries prepared in the comparative example and the embodiment were taken respectively. The lithium-ion secondary batteries were repeatedly charged and discharged through the following steps, and the cycle capacity retention rate of the lithium-ion secondary batteries was calculated: In an environment of 45°C, the first charge and discharge were performed. Constant current and constant voltage charging was performed at a charging current of 0.1C (i.e., the current value that completely discharges the theoretical capacity within 10 hours) until the upper limit voltage of 3.8V was reached. Then, constant current discharge was performed at a discharge current of 1C until the final voltage of 2.0V was reached. The discharge capacity of the first cycle was recorded. Then, 500 charge and discharge cycles were performed, and the discharge capacity of the 500th cycle was recorded.
[0108] Cycle capacity retention rate C500 = (Discharge capacity of the 500th cycle / Discharge capacity of the first cycle) × 100%.

[0113] As can be seen from Table 1 and Examples 1-3, similar effects can be achieved with different ratios of lithium-supplementing and sodium-supplementing materials within the scope of this invention; meanwhile, Example 2 illustrates that further increasing the sodium-supplementing material cannot further improve capacity and lifespan.
[0114] As can be seen from Table 1, Example 1 and Examples 4-7, one of the different lithium-supplementing + sodium / magnesium / zinc-supplementing materials can achieve similar effects.
[0115] As shown in Table 1, Example 1, and Examples 8-9, supplementing with multiple materials such as lithium, sodium / magnesium / zinc supplements can achieve better results.
[0116] As shown in Table 1, Examples 1, 10-11, and Comparative Example 7, compared to the LiFePO4-Gr system, the LiFePO4-Si system requires more active Li to form SEI in the first cycle of the Si anode, resulting in a lower cell capacity. Furthermore, for the Si anode, lithium supplementation combined with magnesium supplementation yields better results.
[0117] As can be seen from Table 1, Example 1 and Comparative Examples 2-4, when the content of lithium and sodium supplementation agents is too high, the active material of the battery cell decreases, and the specific capacity of the battery cell deteriorates.
[0118] As shown in Table 1, Example 1, Comparative Examples 1 and 5-6, sodium supplementation alone can replenish the active Li consumed by the SEI and improve the SEI, thus improving the lifespan; however, the combination of lithium supplementation and sodium supplementation is better than either lithium supplementation alone or sodium supplementation alone, and is even better than no supplementation at all.
[0119] The embodiments described above are merely examples of several implementations of the present invention, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these modifications and improvements all fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
