Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of lithium ion batteries, in particular to a negative electrode pre-lithiation method for vacuum thermal reduction of metallic lithium, a lithium ion battery negative electrode and a lithium ion battery. Background Art

[0002] Pre-lithiation is a method to improve the energy density and cycle life of lithium-ion batteries, especially for silicon-based high-capacity negative electrode materials. Due to the low first-cycle coulombic efficiency (less than 90%), the formation process will be accompanied by a capacity decay of more than 10%. By introducing metallic lithium or lithium-containing compounds and active substances into the positive or negative electrode to undergo chemical reactions, active lithium ions can be introduced to compensate for the loss of active lithium during the formation or cycle process.

[0003] Positive electrode pre-lithiation usually involves the introduction of some lithium-containing compounds into the positive electrode. During the charging process, the compounds decompose to produce active lithium ions that are added to the negative electrode, such as binary lithium compounds, such as Li 2 O. Li 2 O 2 , Li 2 S. Li 3 P and Li 3 N, ternary Li 2 NiO 2 , Li 5 FeO 4 and Li 6 CoO 4 , and nanocomposite Li based on the reverse conversion reaction 2 S / M, Li 2 O / M, LiF / M (M is Co or Fe, etc.). The decomposition process of these compounds is accompanied by the oxidation of the electrolyte. The gas or solid produced after decomposition will affect the electron / lithium ion transmission in the positive electrode material, increase the internal resistance of the positive electrode, and the specific capacity (usually less than 1000mAh / g) is lower than that of metallic lithium (3860mAh / g), which has limited effect on improving the energy density of the battery after lithium supplementation.

[0004] Negative electrode lithium replenishment usually uses a chemical reaction between metallic lithium and the negative electrode. Due to the strong reducing property of metallic lithium, the chemical reaction between the two can proceed spontaneously, which is a more direct and effective way to replenish lithium. Since there is no introduction of other heteroatoms, the negative impact on the battery is smaller than the positive electrode lithium replenishment process. The forms of metallic lithium used include: lithium foil, lithium sheet, lithium powder, etc. However, the strong reducing property of metallic lithium is very dangerous, and the cost of raw materials is high (about 800,000 yuan / ton), which greatly increases the production cost of the lithium replenishment process. Summary of the invention

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is: to overcome the deficiencies in the prior art and provide a method for pre-lithiation of a negative electrode by vacuum thermal reduction of metallic lithium, a negative electrode of a lithium ion battery and a lithium ion battery. In the present invention, metallic lithium is prepared by reducing a lithium-containing compound in a vacuum by a reducing agent, and the metallic lithium is deposited on the negative electrode to directly react with the negative electrode in a biochemical manner, and the pre-lithiation negative electrode is obtained after standing for a period of time. The present invention avoids the introduction of metallic lithium raw materials in the process of replenishing the negative electrode lithium, reduces the cost of replenishing the negative electrode lithium, and improves the safety of replenishing the negative electrode lithium.

[0017] Furthermore, in step S2, the molar ratio of the reducing agent to the lithium-containing compound in the reduction mixture is 1:(1-2.4).
