Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of batteries, and in particular relates to a lithium-ion battery electrolyte and applications thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of portable electronic devices and the electric vehicle industry, the demand for lithium-ion batteries is growing, especially in terms of energy density and cycle stability. To meet this demand, researchers are committed to developing electrode materials and electrolyte systems that can support higher operating voltages to improve the energy density of batteries. However, under high-voltage operation, batteries face problems such as electrolyte decomposition, solid electrolyte interface (SEI) film instability, and transition metal dissolution, which can lead to battery capacity decay and reduced safety.

[0003] Currently, lithium-ion batteries generally adopt a variety of strategies to enhance their performance at high voltages, including: (1) Solvent optimization: By optimizing the high-voltage-resistant solvent components, the electrochemical window of the electrolyte is improved to improve the electrolyte voltage tolerance and reduce the high-voltage decomposition side reaction. (2) SEI film optimization: By adding specific additives to the electrolyte, a stable SEI film can be formed on the surface of the positive and negative electrodes. This film needs to be both conductive and able to prevent further electrolyte decomposition to improve coulombic efficiency and cycle life; however, traditional SEI films may become unstable at high voltages, resulting in continuous electrolyte decomposition and reversible lithium loss. (3) Modification of positive electrode materials: Under high-voltage conditions, transition metal ions in the positive electrode material may dissolve into the electrolyte, deposit at the negative electrode, and catalyze the decomposition of the electrolyte into a film at the negative electrode, which not only reduces the capacity of the battery but may also cause internal short circuits; therefore, a lot of work has been done on the modification of positive electrode materials to prevent the dissolution and migration of transition metals.

[0004] Although the above methods have improved the performance of lithium-ion batteries to a certain extent, they still have some limitations. Higher voltage and longer cycle times remain challenges. For example, in the lithium nickel manganese oxide system, the platform voltage is 4.7V. Traditional additive-modified SEI films may not be able to effectively passivate the cathode interface under high voltage and cannot completely inhibit the dissolution of transition metal ions. Summary of the Invention

[0066] In order to more intuitively compare the differences between Examples 1 to 6 and Comparative Example 1, the electrolyte compositions and injection conditions of Examples 1 to 6 and Comparative Example 1 are summarized in the following table:

[0067]

[0068]

[0069] Battery Test

[0070] The performance tests of the batteries prepared in Examples 1 to 6 and Comparative Example 1 were carried out as follows:

[0071] (1) First effect: The first effect of different formulations is obtained by dividing the fractional capacity by the sum of the fractional charge capacity and the formation charge capacity.

[0072] (2) AC internal resistance (ACR): The AC internal resistance meter performs ACR test on the battery.

[0073] (3) Room temperature cycle performance: At room temperature (25±2°C), the above-mentioned battery was charged to 4.85V at 0.5C constant current and constant voltage, with a cut-off current of 0.05C; left for 5 minutes, and then discharged to 3.0V at 1C constant current, and left for 5 minutes. The charge and discharge cycle was repeated in this way to obtain the capacity retention rate of different formulations.

[0074] (4) High temperature cycle performance: Under high temperature (45°C) conditions, the above batteries were charged to 4.85V at 0.5C constant current and constant voltage, with a cut-off current of 0.05C; left for 5 minutes, and then discharged to 3.0V at 1C constant current, left for 5 minutes. The charge and discharge cycle was repeated in this way to obtain the capacity retention rates of different formulas.

[0075] The test results are shown in the following table:

[0076]

[0077] From the comparison between Comparative Example 1 and Example 1, it can be seen that the compound of formula I can optimize the interfacial film composition, improve the first efficiency of the battery, and improve the cycle coulombic efficiency, thereby effectively improving the battery cycle capacity retention rate.

[0078] From the comparison between Comparative Example 1 and Example 2, it can be seen that the compound of formula II can replenish the active lithium lost in film formation during the formation and capacity division stage, thereby improving the initial efficiency and capacity division of the battery. Because the structure after delithiation has strong coordination with transition metal ions, it effectively protects the positive electrode structure and improves the capacity retention rate of normal temperature and high temperature cycles.

[0079] From the comparison between Comparative Example 1 and Example 3, it can be seen that the compound of formula II increases the battery ACR. When used with the low-impedance compound of formula I, the battery impedance can be reduced, the battery first efficiency and differential capacity can be further improved, and the battery cycle efficiency can be improved.

[0080] It can be seen from the data of Examples 2 and 4 that the secondary injection method can maximize the synergistic effect of the two additives (the compound of Formula I and the compound of Formula II). The first injection preferentially forms a stable low-impedance interface film, and the second injection replenishes the lost active lithium. The structure after delithiation passivates the positive electrode interface, effectively improving battery performance.

[0081] It can be seen from Examples 4, 5 and 6 that the battery performance is optimal when the total content of the compound of formula I in the electrolyte is 0.8 wt % and the total content of the compound of formula II in the electrolyte is 1 wt %.

[0082] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principles of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as within the scope of protection of the present invention.
