[0038] In the embodiment of the present application, by controlling the thickness of the second connection part to be smaller than the thickness of the first connection part, the thickness of the area where the current collecting member is connected to the electrode terminal is greater than the thickness of the area where the current collecting member is connected to the tab. Since the thickness requirement of the area where the current collecting member is connected to the tab is less than the thickness requirement of the area where the current collecting member is connected to the electrode terminal, the thickness of the current collecting member can be effectively optimized while the current collecting member can be connected to the electrode terminal and the tab, so as to reduce the overall weight of the current collecting member and save the space occupied by the current collecting member, and improve the energy density of the secondary battery cell. The thickness of the first connection part and the thickness of the second connection part are both controlled within a suitable range, so as to meet the connection strength between the first connection part and the electrode terminal, and between the second connection part and the tab while improving the energy density of the secondary battery cell.

[0040] In the embodiment of the present application, in the thickness direction of the first wall, the surface of the secondary battery cell that exceeds the outer surface of the first wall by the maximum height is the first end face. When electrode terminals of the same specification are used, the height of the secondary battery cell that exceeds the first wall can be reduced accordingly, thereby increasing the proportion of the space inside the secondary battery cell casing to the total space of the battery, thereby increasing the energy density of the battery.

[0044] In the embodiment of the present application, by controlling the size of the step portion protruding from the outer peripheral surface of the main body within a suitable range, it is helpful to increase the contact area between the step portion and the fixing member, thereby helping to improve the connection strength between the step portion and the fixing member.

[0049] In some embodiments, the electrolyte includes: a lithium salt, the lithium salt includes LiPF6 and LiFSI; based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass content m3 of the lithium salt satisfies 13wt%≤m3≤18wt%.
[0050] In the embodiments of the present application, by selecting LiPF6 and LiFSI as lithium salts, it helps to improve the lithium ion conductivity and high temperature resistance of the electrolyte, thereby helping to improve the lithium ion dynamics during the cycle of the secondary battery cells and improve the cycle performance of the secondary battery cells.
[0051] In some embodiments, based on the total amount of the lithium salt, the molar content of LiPF6 accounts for n and satisfies: 50%≤n≤70%.

For example, the numerical range "0-5" means that all real numbers between "0-5" are listed in this document, and "0-5" is just an abbreviation of these numerical combinations. In addition, when a parameter is expressed as an integer ≥ 2, it is equivalent to disclosing that the parameter is, for example, an integer of 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, etc.
[0069] In the description of this application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, "multiple" means more than two; the terms "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "inner", "outer", etc., indicating directions or positional relationships, are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting this application. In addition, the terms "first", "second", "third", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0072] If not otherwise specified, all embodiments and optional embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other to form a new technical solution.
[0073] Unless otherwise specified, the following terms have the following meanings. Any undefined terms have their generally accepted meanings in the art.
[0074] Where mentioned, "lithium-containing phosphate" refers to a class of salts including the element lithium and phosphate ions.
[0075] When the “lithium-containing phosphate” further includes a transition metal, it may be referred to as a “lithium-containing transition metal phosphate”.
[0076] “Lithium-containing phosphates” may include, for example, lithium iron phosphate materials, lithium iron manganese phosphate materials, and the like.
[0077] As mentioned, "lithium-containing transition metal oxides" refers to a class of oxides including lithium elements and transition metal elements. Structurally, it includes ternary materials with layered structures, LiCoO2, LiNiO2, etc., and also includes LiMn2O4 with spinel structure, etc. Ternary materials refer to lithium transition metal oxides including three different transition metal elements, for example, lithium-containing nickel-cobalt-manganese oxides and lithium-containing nickel-cobalt-aluminum oxides. It should be understood that ternary materials can also be doped or coated with trace amounts of other transition metal elements, and it is generally believed that ternary materials doped or coated with other transition metal elements are still ternary materials.
[0078] If mentioned, "discharge rate" refers to the current value required for a secondary battery cell to discharge its rated capacity within a specified time. It is numerically equal to a multiple of the rated capacity and is usually represented by the letter C. Discharge rate = discharge current / rated capacity. Discharge rate is a measure of how fast a secondary battery cell discharges. For example, if the rated capacity of a battery is discharged in 1 hour, the discharge rate of the secondary battery cell is 1C.
[0079] As mentioned, "discharge platform voltage" refers to the voltage corresponding to the "platform area" in the voltage-capacity or voltage-time curve under constant current discharge conditions. In the voltage-capacity or voltage-time curve of the discharge process, the voltage first drops rapidly as the discharge capacity or discharge time increases, then the voltage remains almost unchanged or changes very little, and then the voltage drops rapidly to the cut-off voltage. The part of the curve where the voltage remains almost unchanged or changes very little is the "platform area". The discharge platform voltage can be the voltage corresponding to the platform area (voltage remains almost unchanged) or the median of the voltage range corresponding to the platform area (voltage changes). The discharge platform voltage of a secondary battery cell can also be approximately calculated using the ratio of the discharge energy to the discharge capacity of the secondary battery cell, that is, discharge platform voltage = discharge energy / discharge capacity, where the unit of discharge energy is Wh and the unit of discharge capacity is Ah.
[0080] If mentioned, "linear carbonate" refers to a class of substances with a chain structure and containing carbonate groups (-OCO-O-), such as dimethyl carbonate (DMC), diethyl carbonate (DEC), ethyl methyl carbonate (EMC), etc.
[0081] Next, embodiments of the present application are introduced.
[0082] In recent years, secondary batteries have been widely used in power tools, electronic products, electric vehicles, aerospace and other fields due to their high energy density and long service life, and have achieved great development. Usually, the secondary battery cell of a secondary battery includes a positive electrode plate, a negative electrode plate, an electrolyte and a separator. During the charge and discharge process of the secondary battery cell, the active ions are embedded and released back and forth between the positive electrode plate and the negative electrode plate. Among them, the electrolyte plays a role in conducting active ions between the positive electrode plate and the negative electrode plate. The separator is arranged between the positive electrode plate and the negative electrode plate, which allows the active ions to pass through while preventing the positive and negative electrodes from short-circuiting, so that the electrochemical reaction in the secondary battery cell proceeds normally.
[0083] Improving the energy density of secondary battery cells has always been a research focus in the battery field. Positive electrode active materials are one of the direct factors that directly affect the energy density of secondary battery cells. Lithium-containing phosphates with good thermal stability and lithium-containing transition metal oxides with high gram capacity are both commonly used positive electrode active materials, but the low gram capacity of lithium-containing phosphates is not conducive to improving the energy density of secondary battery cells. Lithium-containing transition metal oxides are beneficial to improving the energy density of secondary battery cells, but their safety performance is poor. At present, there are some solutions for mixing the two in the hope of obtaining secondary battery cells that take into account both safety performance and high capacity.
[0084] In addition, from the perspective of practical application, in addition to the energy density and safety performance of secondary battery cells, the cycle performance of secondary battery cells is also an important performance indicator. When a mixed material containing lithium phosphate and lithium transition metal oxide is selected as the positive electrode active material, the cycle performance of the secondary battery cells may not meet the application requirements.
[0085] In view of this, the embodiments of the present application provide a secondary battery cell, a secondary battery and an electrical device, wherein the discharge platform voltage of the secondary battery cell is controlled within a suitable range, so that the secondary battery cell can have both high energy density and good cycle performance.
[0086] Next, the secondary battery cell provided by the present application is introduced.
[0087] [Secondary battery cell]
[0088] First, a secondary battery cell is provided, the secondary battery cell includes an electrode assembly, the electrode assembly includes a positive electrode plate and a negative electrode plate. The positive electrode plate includes a positive electrode current collector and a positive electrode film layer disposed on at least one surface of the positive electrode current collector, the positive electrode film layer includes a positive electrode active material, the positive electrode active material includes a lithium-containing phosphate and a lithium-containing transition metal oxide, and the negative electrode plate includes a negative electrode current collector and a negative electrode film layer disposed on at least one surface of the negative electrode current collector, the negative electrode film layer includes a negative electrode active material, and the negative electrode active material includes graphite. The discharge platform voltage v of the secondary battery cell at 25°C and at a discharge rate of 1 / 3C in the voltage range of 2.5V-4.25V satisfies: 3.6V≤v≤3.67V.
[0089] The secondary battery cell of the present application, under the premise that the positive electrode active material includes a lithium-containing phosphate and a lithium-containing transition metal oxide, controls the discharge platform voltage of the secondary battery cell in a specific voltage interval within a specific range, which can effectively improve the cycle performance of the battery under the premise of having a higher energy density. Specifically, under the same mass or volume, the higher the discharge platform voltage, the higher the energy that the secondary battery can release. However, if the discharge platform voltage is too high, the electrolyte of the secondary battery cell will undergo a redox reaction to produce gas, consume the active lithium ions in the electrolyte, and affect the cycle performance of the secondary battery cell. Specifically, when the positive electrode active material includes both a lithium-containing phosphate and a lithium-containing transition metal oxide, if the discharge platform voltage is too low (for example, lower than 3.6V), the energy density of the battery cell is low. The possible reason is that the content of the lithium-containing transition metal oxide in the positive electrode active material is low or the structure has collapsed, and the discharge capacity contributed to the discharge process is very limited. If the discharge platform voltage is too high (for example, higher than 3.67V), it may lead to poor battery cycle performance. The possible reason is that the proportion of lithium-containing transition metal oxides in the positive electrode active material is high, which makes the discharge platform voltage of the secondary battery monomer high. Excessive discharge platform voltage will cause the electrolyte to produce gas by side reaction, affecting the cycle performance of the secondary battery monomer. Therefore, when the positive electrode active material includes both lithium-containing phosphate and lithium-containing transition metal oxide, controlling the discharge platform voltage within the given range can effectively improve the battery cycle performance while having a higher energy density.
[0090] The discharge platform voltage of a secondary battery cell can be adjusted by adjusting the active material and the electrode preparation process parameters, such as the type, ratio, and particle size of the active material, the coating weight and compaction density of the electrode, etc.
[0091] It should be understood that, taking into account the normal error of the test conditions, the discharge platform voltage tested under the above conditions within the range of 25℃±2℃, if it falls within the range specified in this application, can be equivalent to the test result at 25℃ and is deemed to fall within the scope of this application.
[0092] In some embodiments, the mass fraction m1 of the lithium-containing phosphate in the positive electrode active material satisfies: 40wt%≤m1≤70wt%; optionally, 45wt%≤m1≤70wt%.
[0093] Specifically, m1 can be 40wt%, 42wt%, 44wt%, 45wt%, 46wt%, 48wt%, 50wt%, 52wt%, 54wt%, 56wt%, 58wt%, 60wt%, 62wt%, 64wt%, 66wt%, 68wt%, 70wt%, or its value is within the range obtained by combining any two of the above values.
[0094] By controlling the mass content of lithium-containing phosphate within a suitable range, the ratio of lithium-containing phosphate and lithium-containing transition metal oxide in the positive electrode active material is indirectly regulated, which helps to adjust the discharge platform voltage of the secondary battery cell within a specific range, so that the secondary battery cell has both high energy density and good cycle performance. In addition, lithium-containing phosphate has good thermal stability. When the positive electrode active material includes both lithium-containing phosphate and lithium-containing transition metal oxide, controlling the content of lithium-containing phosphate within the above range can further improve the energy density and cycle performance of the secondary battery while maintaining high safety. Because the thermal stability of lithium-containing transition metal oxide is generally not as good as that of lithium-containing phosphate, it is easy to react with the electrolyte at high temperature, which may affect the safety performance and cycle performance of the secondary battery cell.
[0095] In some embodiments, the lithium-containing phosphate includes a lithium-containing transition metal phosphate.
[0096] In some embodiments, the lithium-containing phosphate includes a molecular formula of Li 1+a Mn b A 1-b P 1-c R c O4 or one or more of its modified compounds, -0.2≤a<1, 0.3≤b≤0.9, 0≤c≤0.1, A includes one or more of Zn, Al, Na, K, Mg, Mo, W, Ti, V, Zr, Fe, Ni, Co, Ga, Sn, Sb, Nb and Ge, R includes one or more of B, Si, N, S, F, Cl and Br; and / or, the lithium-containing transition metal oxide includes a molecular formula of Li x Ni y Co z M k Me p O r E s ; wherein M includes one or more elements of Mn and Al, Me includes one or more elements of Zr, Zn, Cu, Cr, Mg, Fe, V, Ti, Sr, Sb, Y, W or Nb, and E includes one or more elements of N, F, S and Cl; 0.8≤x≤1.15, 0<y<1, 0<z<1, 0<k<1, 0≤p≤0.1, 1≤r≤2, 0≤s≤1.
[0097] Specifically, the manganese element in the positive electrode active material helps to increase the discharge platform voltage of the secondary battery cell. In this embodiment, by selecting a lithium-containing phosphate containing manganese elements and mixing it with a lithium-containing transition metal oxide, it helps to increase the discharge platform voltage of the secondary battery cell, thereby further improving the energy density of the secondary battery cell. In addition, the lithium-containing transition metal oxide may contain some Me elements, which help to improve the stability of the lithium-containing transition metal oxide, thereby helping to improve the cycle performance of the secondary battery cell. In addition, by controlling the proportion of each metal element in the lithium-containing transition metal oxide within a suitable range, the discharge voltage platform of the secondary battery cell can also be affected, so that the discharge voltage platform of the secondary battery cell is within the designed range, so that the secondary battery cell has both high energy density and good cycle performance.
[0098] In other embodiments, examples of lithium-containing transition metal oxides may include, but are not limited to, lithium cobalt oxide (e.g., LiCoO2), lithium nickel oxide (e.g., LiNiO2), lithium manganese oxide (e.g., LiMnO2, LiMn2O4), lithium nickel cobalt oxide, lithium manganese cobalt oxide, lithium nickel manganese oxide, lithium nickel cobalt manganese oxide (e.g., LiNi 1 / 3 Co 1 / 3 Mn 1 / 3 O2 (also referred to as NCM333), LiNi 0.5 Co 0.2 Mn 0.3 O2 (also referred to as NCM523), LiNi 0.5 Co 0.25 Mn 0.25 O2 (also referred to as NCM211), LiNi 0.6 Co 0.2 Mn 0.2 O2 (also referred to as NCM622), LiNi 0.8 Co 0.1 Mn 0.1 O2 (also referred to as NCM811), lithium nickel cobalt aluminum oxide (such as LiNi 0.85 Co 0.15 Al 0.05O2) and at least one of its modified compounds. Examples of lithium-containing phosphates may include, but are not limited to, lithium iron phosphate (such as LiFePO4 (also referred to as LFP)), a composite material of lithium iron phosphate and carbon, lithium manganese phosphate (such as LiMnPO4), a composite material of lithium manganese phosphate and carbon, lithium iron manganese phosphate, and at least one of a composite material of lithium iron manganese phosphate and carbon. The battery is accompanied by the deintercalation and consumption of Li during the charging and discharging process, and the molar content of Li in the positive electrode active material is different when the battery is discharged to different states. In the enumeration of positive electrode active materials in this application, the molar content of Li is the initial state of the material, that is, the state before feeding. The positive electrode active material is used in the battery system, and the molar content of Li will change after charge and discharge cycles. In the enumeration of positive electrode active materials in this application, the molar content of O is only an ideal state value. The release of lattice oxygen will cause the molar content of O to change, and the actual molar content of O will fluctuate.
[0099] The positive electrode active material includes Li 1+d [Ni f Co g Mn h M i ]O 2-e In the example, d is 0, and the positive electrode active material includes LiNi 0.7 Co 0.1 Mn 0.2 As another example, d>0, the positive electrode active material includes LiNi 0.7 Co 0.1 Mn 0.1 Al 0.1 O2.
[0100] In some embodiments, the positive electrode active material includes: LiNi 0.90 Co 0.06 Mn 0.04 O2、LiNi 0.7 Co 0.1 Mn 0.2 O2、LiNi 0.7 Co 0.2 Mn 0.1 O2 or LiNi 0.8 Co 0.1 Mn 0.1 At least one of O2.
[0101] In some embodiments, the volume distribution particle size Dv501 of the positive electrode active material satisfies: 1.5 μm≤Dv501≤3 μm.
[0102] Specifically, Dv501 can be 1.5μm, 1.6μm, 1.7μm, 1.8μm, 1.9μm, 2μm, 2.1μm, 2.2μm, 2.3μm, 2.4μm, 2.5μm, 2.5μm, 2.6μm, 2.7μm, 2.8μm, 2.9μm, 3μm, or its value is within the range obtained by combining any two of the above values.
[0103] In some embodiments, the lithium-containing phosphate includes one or more elements of Al, Ti, and V. Specifically, the lithium-containing phosphate may also include trace elements such as Al, Ti, and V, which help to improve the structural stability of the lithium-containing phosphate, thereby further improving the cycle performance of the secondary battery cell.
[0104] In some embodiments, the lithium-containing phosphate includes a first lithium-containing phosphate and a second lithium-containing phosphate, and the volume distribution particle size Dv50 of the first lithium-containing phosphate is 1-1 Meet: 0.05μm≤Dv50 1-1 ≤0.3μm; Volume distribution particle size Dv50 of the second lithium-containing phosphate 1-2 Satisfy: 1μm≤Dv50 1-2 ≤3μm. Specifically, Dv50 1-1 It can be 0.05μm, 0.08μm, 0.1μm, 0.12μm, 0.14μm, 0.16μm, 0.18μm, 0.2μm, 0.22μm, 0.24μm, 0.26μm, 0.28μm, 0.3μm, or a value within the range obtained by combining any two of the above values. Dv50 1-2 The particle size can be 1 μm, 1.2 μm, 1.4 μm, 1.6 μm, 1.8 μm, 2 μm, 2.2 μm, 2.4 μm, 2.6 μm, 2.8 μm, 3 μm, or any value within the range obtained by combining any two of the above values. The combination of two lithium-containing phosphates with different particle sizes helps to increase the compaction density of the positive electrode sheet, thereby further increasing the energy density of the secondary battery.
[0105] In some embodiments, the volume distribution particle size Dv50 of the lithium phosphate 1-3 Meet: 0.8μm≤Dv50 1-3 ≤1.2μm.
[0106] Specifically, Dv50 1-3It can be 0.8μm, 0.9μm, 1μm, 1.1μm, 1.2μm, or its value is within the range obtained by combining any two of the above values. The particle size of the lithium-containing phosphate has a certain influence on the discharge platform voltage of the secondary battery cell. The smaller the volume distribution particle size of the lithium-containing phosphate, the smaller the diffusion path of the lithium ions, the more conducive to the diffusion of lithium ions, and the higher the discharge platform voltage of the secondary battery cell. However, if the volume distribution particle size of the lithium-containing phosphate is too small, the particles are easy to agglomerate, thereby increasing the internal resistance of the battery cell, which is not conducive to the cycle stability of the secondary battery cell. Therefore, this embodiment can further improve the energy density and cycle performance of the secondary battery cell by controlling the volume distribution particle size of the lithium-containing phosphate within a suitable range.
[0107] In some embodiments, the volume distribution particle size Dv50 of the lithium-containing transition metal oxide is 1-4 Meet: 3μm≤Dv50 1-4 ≤5μm.
[0108] In some embodiments, the volume distribution particle size Dv101 of the lithium-containing transition metal oxide satisfies: 1.5 μm≤Dv101≤2.5 μm.
[0109] In some embodiments, the volume distribution particle size Dv901 of the lithium-containing transition metal oxide satisfies: 7.5 μm≤Dv901≤9.5 μm.
[0110] In some embodiments, the particle size distribution of the lithium-containing transition metal oxide satisfies: 0.95≤(Dv901-Dv10 1-4 ) / Dv50 1-4 ≤1.5.
[0111] Specifically, Dv50 1-4 It can be 3μm, 3.2μm, 2.4μm, 2.6μm, 2.8μm, 4μm, 4.2μm, 4.4μm, 4.6μm, 4.8μm, 5μm, or its value is within the range obtained by combining any two of the above values. Dv101 can be 1.5μm, 1.6μm, 1.7μm, 1.8μm, 1.9μm, 2μm, 2.1μm, 2.2μm, 2.3μm, 2.4μm, 2.5μm, or its value is within the range obtained by combining any two of the above values. Dv901 can be 7.5μm, 7.6μm, 7.7μm, 7.8μm, 7.9μm, 8μm, 8.1μm, 8.2μm, 8.3μm, 8.4μm, 8.5μm, 8.6μm, 8.7μm, 8.8μm, 8.9μm, 9μm, or any value within the range obtained by combining any two of the above values. (Dv901-Dv10 1-4 ) / Dv50 1-4It can be 0.95, 1, 1.05, 1.1, 1.15, 1.2, 1.25, 1.3, 1.35, 1.4, 1.45, 1.5, or a value within the range obtained by combining any two of the above values.
[0112] The particle size of the lithium-containing transition metal oxide has a certain influence on the discharge platform voltage of the secondary battery cell. The smaller the volume distribution particle size of the lithium-containing transition metal oxide, the higher the discharge platform voltage of the secondary battery cell. At the same time, if the volume distribution particle size of the lithium-containing transition metal oxide is too small, the side reactions between it and the electrolyte may increase, which may affect the cycle performance of the secondary battery cell. Therefore, this embodiment can further improve the energy density and cycle performance of the secondary battery cell by controlling the volume distribution particle size of the lithium-containing transition metal oxide within a suitable range.
[0113] In some embodiments, the positive electrode plate includes a conductive agent, the conductive agent includes carbon nanotubes, and the diameter d of the carbon nanotubes satisfies: 7 μm≤d≤13 μm.
[0114] Specifically, the carbon nanotubes include at least one of single-walled carbon nanotubes and multi-walled carbon nanotubes. d can be 7μm, 8μm, 9μm, 10μm, 11μm, 12μm, 13μm, or its value is within the range obtained by combining any two of the above values. The conductive agent has a certain influence on the internal resistance, rate performance, cycle performance, etc. of the secondary battery cell. Compared with conductive agents such as conductive carbon black and Ketjen black, the carbon nanotubes and the positive electrode active materials are in linear contact, which can form a better conductive network between the positive electrode active materials, have higher conductivity efficiency, can reduce the polarization of the secondary battery cell during the cycle, and improve the rate performance and cycle performance of the secondary battery cell.
[0115] Generally speaking, the smaller the diameter of carbon nanotubes, the better the conductivity. However, the smaller the diameter, the more difficult it is to prepare, which is not conducive to improving production efficiency. Therefore, in this embodiment, by selecting carbon nanotubes with a smaller diameter but within a suitable range as the conductive agent, it is helpful to improve the rate performance, cycle performance and production efficiency of the secondary battery monomer.
[0116] The carbon nanotubes may be at least one of single-walled carbon nanotubes or multi-walled carbon nanotubes.
[0117] In some embodiments, the coating weight ρ1 of a single side of the positive electrode film layer satisfies: 190 g / m 2 ≤ρ1≤230g / m 2 .
[0118] Specifically, ρ1 can be 190g / m 2 , 195g / m 2 , 200g / m 2, 205g / m 2 , 210g / m 2 , 215g / m 2 , 220g / m 2 , 225g / m 2 , 230g / m 2 , or its value is within the range obtained by combining any two of the above values.
[0119] According to the present application, the coating weight of the film layer on the pole piece also has a certain influence on the discharge platform voltage of the secondary battery cell. The smaller the coating weight of the film layer, the higher the discharge platform voltage; however, if the coating weight of the film layer is too small, it is not conducive to the energy density of the secondary battery cell. Therefore, by controlling the coating weight of the positive electrode film layer within a suitable range, the present embodiment can make the discharge voltage platform of the secondary battery cell within the designed range, thereby further improving the energy density and cycle performance of the secondary battery cell.
[0120] In some embodiments, the compaction density P1 of the positive electrode film layer satisfies: 2.5 g / cm 3 ≤P1≤2.9g / cm 3 .
[0121] Specifically, P1 can be 2.5g / m 2 , 2.6g / cm 3 , 2.7g / cm 3 , 2.8g / cm 3 , 2.9g / cm 3 , or its value is within the range obtained by combining any two of the above values. The greater the compaction density of the positive electrode film layer, the more conducive it is to improving the energy density of the secondary battery cell. However, if the compaction density of the positive electrode film layer is too large, it may affect the infiltration of the electrolyte into the positive electrode film layer, thereby affecting the dynamics of lithium ions. Therefore, in this embodiment, by controlling the compaction density of the positive electrode film layer within a suitable range, the energy density of the secondary battery cell can be improved, and it is helpful for the electrolyte to infiltrate the positive electrode film layer, thereby reducing polarization, improving the dynamics of lithium ions at the positive electrode, and thus improving the cycle performance of the secondary battery cell.
[0122] In some embodiments, the thickness h1 of the positive electrode current collector satisfies: 10 μm≤h1≤13 μm.
[0123] Specifically, h1 can be 10μm, 10.2μm, 10.4μm, 10.6μm, 10.8μm, 11μm, 11.2μm, 11.4μm, 11.6μm, 11.8μm, 12μm, 12.2μm, 12.4μm, 12.6μm, 12.8μm, 13μm, or its value is within the range obtained by combining any two of the above values. The thinner the thickness of the current collector, the more conducive it is to reducing the thickness of the positive electrode plate, thereby increasing the energy density of the secondary battery cell. If the thickness of the current collector is too thin, it will affect the mechanical strength of the electrode plate, and it may break during the processing or use of the secondary battery cell, resulting in a sudden decrease in the capacity of the secondary battery cell, which is not conducive to the energy density of the secondary battery cell. This embodiment helps to improve the energy density of the secondary battery cell by controlling the thickness of the positive electrode current collector within a suitable range.
[0124] In some embodiments, in addition to the graphite mentioned above, the negative electrode active material may also include negative electrode active materials for batteries known in the art. As an example, the negative electrode active material may include at least one of the following materials: soft carbon, hard carbon, silicon-based materials, tin-based materials, lithium titanate, etc. The silicon-based material may be selected from at least one of elemental silicon, silicon oxide compounds, silicon-carbon composites, silicon-nitrogen composites, and silicon alloys. The tin-based material may be selected from at least one of elemental tin, tin oxide compounds, and tin alloys. However, the present application is not limited to these materials, and other traditional materials that can be used as negative electrode active materials for batteries may also be used. These negative electrode active materials may be used alone or in combination of two or more.
[0125] In some embodiments, the average volume particle size Dv502 of the negative electrode active material satisfies: 10 μm≤Dv502≤14 μm.
[0126] Specifically, Dv502 can be 10μm, 10.2μm, 10.4μm, 10.6μm, 10.8μm, 11μm, 11.2μm, 11.4μm, 11.6μm, 11.8μm, 12μm, 12.2μm, 12.4μm, 12.6μm, 12.8μm, 13μm, 13.2μm, 13.4μm, 13.6μm, 13.8μm, 14μm, or its value is within the range obtained by combining any two of the above values. The average volume particle size of the negative electrode active material affects the capacity and cycle performance of the secondary battery cell. The smaller the average volume particle size of the negative electrode active material, the larger the specific surface area, which can provide more active sites in the electrochemical reaction, thereby facilitating the extraction and embedding of lithium ions and improving the capacity of the secondary battery cell. If the average volume particle size of the negative electrode active material is too small, the contact area between the particles may be insufficient, the internal resistance of the secondary battery cell may be increased, and the cycle performance of the secondary battery cell may be affected. Therefore, this embodiment can help improve the capacity and cycle performance of the secondary battery cell by controlling the average volume particle size of the negative electrode active material within a suitable range.
[0127] In some embodiments, the coating weight ρ3 of a single side of the negative electrode film layer satisfies: 90 g / m 2 ≤ρ3≤110g / m 2 .
[0128] Specifically, ρ3 can be 90g / m 2 , 92g / m 2 , 94g / m 2 , 96g / m 2 , 98g / m 2 , 100g / m 2 , 102g / m 2 , 104g / m 2 , 106g / m 2 , 108g / m 2 , 110g / m 2 , or its value is within the range obtained by combining any two of the above values. The coating weight of the negative electrode film layer will also affect the discharge platform voltage of the secondary battery cell. The greater the single-sided coating weight of the negative electrode film layer, the lower the discharge platform voltage of the secondary battery cell. This embodiment controls the coating weight of the negative electrode film layer within a suitable range, so that the discharge voltage platform of the secondary battery cell is within the designed range, so that the secondary battery cell has good cycle performance under the premise of having a higher energy density.
[0129] In some embodiments, the compaction density P2 of the negative electrode film layer satisfies: 1.3 g / cm 3 ≤P2≤1.55g / cm 3 ; Optionally, 1.4 g / cm3 ≤P2≤1.5g / cm 3 .
[0130] Specifically, ρ4 can be 1.3 g / cm 3 , 1.32g / cm 3 , 1.34g / cm 3 , 1.35g / cm 3 , 1.36g / cm 3 , 1.38g / cm 3 , 1.4g / cm 3 , 1.42g / cm 3 , 1.44g / cm 3 , 1.46g / cm 3 , 1.48g / cm 3 , 1.5g / cm 3 , or its value is within the range obtained by combining any two of the above values. The greater the compaction density of the negative electrode film layer, the more conducive it is to improving the energy density of the secondary battery cell. However, if the compaction density of the negative electrode film layer is too large, it may affect the infiltration of the electrolyte into the negative electrode active material, thereby affecting the lithium ion dynamics. Therefore, in this embodiment, by controlling the compaction density of the negative electrode film layer within a suitable range, the energy density of the secondary battery cell can be improved, and the electrolyte can be helped to infiltrate the negative electrode plate to reduce polarization, thereby improving the dynamics of lithium ions at the negative electrode plate and improving the cycle performance of the secondary battery cell.
[0131] In some embodiments, the thickness h2 of the negative electrode current collector satisfies: 4 μm≤h2≤6 μm.
[0132] Specifically, h2 can be 4μm, 4.2μm, 4.4μm, 4.6μm, 4.8μm, 5μm, 5.2μm, 5.4μm, 5.6μm, 5.8μm, 6μm, or a value within the range obtained by combining any two of the above values. This embodiment helps to improve the energy density of the secondary battery cell by controlling the thickness of the negative electrode collector within a suitable range.
[0133] Figure 1 and Figure 2 It is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of a laminated electrode assembly. Figure 3 FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional schematic diagram of a wound electrode assembly. For ease of explanation, the pole ears included in each pole piece are not shown here. Figure 1-3 As shown, the electrode assembly 10 includes a positive electrode sheet 11 and a negative electrode sheet 12 and a separator 13 disposed between the positive electrode sheet 11 and the negative electrode sheet 12 .
[0134] In some embodiments, Figure 1As shown in the figure, the electrode assembly 10 is a laminated electrode assembly. The electrode assembly 10 includes a plurality of positive electrode sheets 11 and a plurality of negative electrode sheets 12; the plurality of positive electrode sheets 11 and the plurality of negative electrode sheets 12 are alternately stacked in the direction indicated by the arrows in the figure. In another embodiment, as shown in the figure Figure 2 As shown, the electrode assembly 10 includes a plurality of positive electrode sheets 11 and negative electrode sheets 12, the negative electrode sheets 12 may include at least one bending section and a plurality of stacking sections, each bending section is used to connect two stacking sections, and the plurality of positive electrode sheets 11 and the plurality of stacking sections of the negative electrode sheets 12 are alternately stacked in the direction indicated by the arrow in the figure to form another stacked electrode assembly 10. Alternatively, the electrode assembly 10 includes a plurality of negative electrode sheets 12 and positive electrode sheets 11, the positive electrode sheets 11 may include at least one bending section and a plurality of stacking sections, each bending section is used to connect two stacking sections, and the plurality of negative electrode sheets 12 and the plurality of stacking sections of the positive electrode sheets 11 are alternately stacked in the direction indicated by the arrow in the figure to form another stacked electrode assembly 10.
[0135] In some embodiments, Figure 3 As shown, the electrode assembly 10 may also be a wound electrode assembly. The positive electrode sheet 11 , the separator 13 and the negative electrode sheet 12 of the electrode assembly 10 are wound to form the electrode assembly 10 .
[0136] According to the present application, the electrode assembly 10 is preferably a laminated electrode assembly. Compared with a wound electrode assembly, a laminated electrode assembly has a higher space utilization rate inside the shell of the secondary battery cell 20. When the shell is the same, the laminated electrode assembly can accommodate more active materials in the shell, thereby further improving the energy density of the secondary battery cell.
[0137] Figure 4-Figure 5 Schematic diagram of the structure of a secondary battery cell 20 of the present application.
[0138] like Figure 4-5 As shown, in some embodiments, the secondary battery cell 20 includes a housing 21 , the electrode assembly 10 is accommodated in the housing 21 , the housing 21 includes a first wall 211 , and the electrode terminal 22 is disposed on the first wall 211 .
[0139] More specifically, the housing 21 may include a shell 212 and an end cap 213. The shell 212 is formed with a receiving cavity inside, and the receiving cavity has an opening 2121, that is, the shell 212 is a hollow structure with one end open, and the end cap 213 covers the opening 2121 of the shell 212 and forms a sealed connection to form a sealed space for accommodating the electrode assembly 10 and the electrolyte. Optionally, the first wall 211 for mounting the electrode terminal 22 may be the end cap 213, or may be one of the multiple walls of the shell 212. Exemplarily, in Figure 4 and Figure 5In the figure, the first wall 211 is the end cover 213 of the shell 21. Of course, in other embodiments, the first wall 211 can also be the bottom wall of the shell 212 arranged opposite to the end cover 213 in the thickness direction X of the end cover 213 or the side wall adjacent to the end cover 213 and abutting against each other.
[0140] The shell 212 can be in various shapes, such as a cylinder, a cuboid, etc. The shape of the shell 212 can be determined according to the specific shape of the electrode assembly 10. For example, if the electrode assembly 10 is a cylindrical structure, the shell 212 can be a cylindrical structure; if the electrode assembly 10 is a cuboid structure, the shell 212 can be a cuboid structure. Of course, the end cap 213 can also be a variety of structures, such as a plate-like structure or a hollow structure with one end open. For example, in Figure 4 and Figure 5 In the embodiment, the shell 212 is a rectangular parallelepiped structure. It should be understood that the shell 21 is not limited to the aforementioned structure, and the shell 21 may also be other structures. For example, the shell 21 includes a shell 212 and two end caps 213. The shell 212 is a hollow structure with openings 2121 on opposite sides. One end cap 213 is correspondingly covered at one opening 2121 of the shell 212 to form a sealed connection, so as to form a sealed space for accommodating the electrode assembly 10 and the electrolyte.
[0141] Figure 6 It is a partial schematic diagram of a secondary battery cell 20 in the electrode terminal 22 area of the present application.
[0142] refer to Figure 4-6 In some embodiments, the electrode assembly 10 includes a main body 101 and a tab 102, wherein the tab 102 is connected to one end of the main body 101 facing the first wall 211. The secondary battery cell 20 includes a current collecting member 24, which is disposed between the first wall 211 and the main body 101. The current collecting member 24 includes a first connecting portion 241 and a second connecting portion 242 connected to each other, wherein the first connecting portion 241 is connected to the electrode terminal 22, and the second connecting portion 242 is connected to the tab 102. Along the thickness direction X of the first wall 211, the thickness D1 of the first connecting portion 241 satisfies: 0.5 mm ≤ D1 ≤ 1.2 mm; the thickness D2 of the second connecting portion 242 satisfies: 0.3 mm ≤ D2 ≤ 1 mm.
[0143] Specifically, the main body 101 of the electrode assembly 10 is the main area where the electrochemical reaction of the electrode assembly 10 occurs in the secondary battery cell 20. The main body 101 is a layout formed by winding or stacking the area of the positive electrode plate 11 coated with the positive electrode active material, the separator, and the area of the negative electrode plate 12 coated with the negative electrode active material. The tab 102 is used to output or input the positive or negative electrode of the electrode assembly 10. The tab 102 is used to connect to the electrode terminal 22 to achieve electrical connection between the electrode assembly 10 and the electrode terminal 22. It should be noted that the tab 102 of the electrode assembly 10 is a component formed by stacking and connecting the areas on the positive electrode plate 11 that are not coated with the positive electrode active material or a component formed by stacking and connecting the areas on the negative electrode plate 12 that are not coated with the negative electrode active material. If the tab 102 is used for the positive electrode of the output electrode assembly 10, the tab 102 is a component formed by the regions on the positive electrode sheet 11 that are not coated with the positive electrode active material being stacked and connected to each other; if the tab 102 is used for the negative electrode of the output electrode assembly 10, the tab 102 is a component formed by the regions on the negative electrode sheet 12 that are not coated with the negative electrode active material being stacked and connected to each other. Exemplarily, the tab 102 is connected to one end of the body 101 facing the end cover 213 in the thickness direction X of the end cover 213.
[0144] The electrode assembly 10 contained in the housing 21 may be one or more. Figure 5 In the embodiment, the outer shell 21 of the secondary battery cell 20 is provided with two electrode assemblies 10, and the two electrode assemblies 10 are stacked along the thickness direction thereof, that is, the two electrode assemblies 10 are stacked along the thickness direction of the secondary battery cell 20. Of course, in other embodiments, the electrode assemblies 10 accommodated in the outer shell 21 may be one, three, four, five, six, seven or eight, etc.
[0145] The electrode terminal 22 is a component for outputting or inputting electric energy to the secondary battery cell 20. For example, the material of the electrode terminal 22 can also be multiple, for example, the material of the electrode terminal 22 can be copper, iron, aluminum, steel, aluminum alloy, etc. The end of the electrode terminal 22 facing the electrode assembly 10 is connected to the current collecting member 24, and the end of the electrode terminal 22 away from the electrode assembly 10 is used to connect to the current collecting member to realize the input or output of electric energy of the secondary battery cell 20. The end cover 213 is provided with a first through hole 2111, and the first through hole 2111 penetrates both sides of the end cover 213 along the thickness direction X of the end cover 213. The electrode terminal 22 is penetrated in the first through hole 2111 to install the electrode terminal 22 on the end cover 213, and the first through holes 2111 are extended from both ends of the electrode terminal 22. The electrode terminal 22 is installed on the end cover 213 in an insulated manner, that is, no electrical connection is formed between the electrode terminal 22 and the end cover 213. The secondary battery cell 20 may further include an insulating member 26 to insulate and separate the end cap 213 and the electrode terminal 22. The secondary battery cell 20 may further include a sealing member 27 to seal a gap between the electrode terminal 22 and a hole wall surface of the first through hole 2111.
[0146] exist Figure 4 and Figure 5 In the embodiment, the secondary battery cell 20 includes two electrode terminals 22, and correspondingly, each electrode assembly 10 has two tabs 102, and the polarities of the two tabs 102 are opposite. The two electrode terminals 22 are electrically connected to the two tabs 102 of the electrode assembly 10, respectively, to realize the input or output of the positive and negative electrodes of the secondary battery cell 20.
[0147] The current collecting component 24 serves to connect the electrode terminal 22 and the tab 102 to achieve electrical connection between the electrode assembly 10 and the electrode terminal 22. Exemplarily, the material of the current collecting component 24 can be various, such as copper, iron, aluminum, steel, aluminum alloy, etc. The connection structure between the current collecting component 24 and the electrode terminal 22 can be various, such as welding, abutment or bonding, etc. Similarly, the connection structure between the current collecting component 24 and the tab 102 can also be various, such as welding or abutment, etc. There are two electrode terminals 22 and two current collecting components 24, and the two current collecting components 24 are arranged at intervals along the first direction Z. Each electrode terminal 22 is connected to the electrode assembly 10 through a current collecting component 24 to output the positive and negative electrodes of the secondary battery cell 20. As shown Figure 6 As shown, the current collecting member 24 may further include a bending portion 243 , and the first connection portion 241 and the second connection portion 242 are connected via the bending portion 243 .
[0148] For example, D1 can be 0.5 mm, 0.55 mm, 0.6 mm, 0.65 mm, 0.7 mm, 0.75 mm, 0.8 mm, 0.9 mm, 1 mm, 1.1 mm, 1.15 mm, 1.2 mm, or a value thereof within the range obtained by combining any two of the above values. D2 can be 0.3 mm, 0.35 mm, 0.4 mm, 0.45 mm, 0.5 mm, 0.55 mm, 0.6 mm, 0.7 mm, 0.8 mm, 0.9 mm, 0.95 mm, 1 mm, or a value thereof within the range obtained by combining any two of the above values.
[0149] In this embodiment, the thickness of the region of the current collecting member 24 used for connecting the electrode terminal 22 is greater than the thickness of the region of the current collecting member 24 used for connecting the electrode tab 102. Since the thickness requirement of the region where the current collecting member 24 is connected to the electrode tab 102 is less than the thickness requirement of the region where the current collecting member 24 is connected to the electrode terminal 22, the thickness of the current collecting member 24 can be effectively optimized while the current collecting member 24 can be connected to the electrode terminal 22 and the electrode tab 102, so as to reduce the overall weight of the current collecting member 24 and save the space occupied by the current collecting member 24, thereby optimizing the weight and internal space utilization of the secondary battery cell 20, which is conducive to improving the energy density of the secondary battery cell 20.
[0150] Furthermore, by setting the thickness of the first connection part 241 and the thickness of the second connection part 242 within a suitable range, on the one hand, the structural strength of the first connection part 241 and the second connection part 242 can be improved, so that the first connection part 241 and the second connection part 242 have sufficient thickness to be connected to the electrode terminal 22 and the pole tab 102, which is conducive to improving the connection stability and reliability between the first connection part 241 and the second connection part 242 and the electrode terminal 22 and the pole tab 102, and reducing the phenomenon of insufficient overcurrent between the current collecting member 24 and the electrode terminal 22, and between the current collecting member 24 and the pole tab 102. On the other hand, the connection difficulty between the first connection part 241 and the electrode terminal 22, and between the second connection part 242 and the pole tab 102 can be reduced, and the space occupied by the current collecting member 24 in the housing 21 can be reduced, which is conducive to improving the energy density of the secondary battery cell 20.

[0152] like Figure 7-9As shown, in some embodiments, the first wall 211 includes a first through hole 2111, and the electrode terminal 22 includes a main body 221 and a step portion 222, the step portion 222 protrudes from the outer peripheral surface of the main body 221, and the step portion 222 is located on the side of the first wall 211 facing the outside of the secondary battery cell 20. The secondary battery cell 20 includes a fixing member 28, and the fixing member 28 includes a second through hole 281 for the main body 221 to pass through. In the thickness direction of the first wall 211, at least a portion of the fixing member 28 is located between the first wall 211 and the step portion 222 and abuts against the step portion 222. The main body 221 has a first end face 2211 facing the outside of the secondary battery cell 20, and the fixing member 28 has a second end face 282 facing the outside of the secondary battery cell 20, and the first end face 2211 exceeds the second end face 282.
[0153] Specifically, the exterior of the secondary battery cell 20 refers to the portion outside the housing 21 of the secondary battery cell 20. The first end face 2211 exceeds the second end face 282, which means that, outside the secondary battery cell 20, in the thickness direction of the first wall 211, the second end face 282 is located between the first end face 2211 and the outer surface of the first wall 211. In other words, the surface farthest from the outer surface of the first wall 211 is the first end face 2211 of the electrode terminal 22.
[0154] The outer peripheral surface of the main body 221 may refer to the outer peripheral surface of a cylinder, or may refer to the peripheral surface of a prism connecting the top surface and the bottom surface of the prism. Taking the main body 221 as a quadrangular prism as an example, the main body 221 includes a top surface, a bottom surface and four side surfaces, the four side surfaces are sequentially connected and surrounded by the top surface, and the four side surfaces are respectively connected to the top surface and the bottom surface at both ends in the direction from the top surface to the bottom surface. The above four side surfaces refer to the outer peripheral surface of the main body 221. In some embodiments, the first end surface 2211 is provided with a first groove 2212, and the side surface of the first groove 2212 may also be referred to as the outer peripheral surface of the main body 221. In this embodiment, the main body 221 is shaped like a "convex" character. In some embodiments, the step portion 222 has a third end surface 2221 facing away from the first wall 211.
[0155] The outer contour of the fixing member 28 may include, but is not limited to, a circle, an ellipse, a polygon, a semicircle, etc. The fixing member 28 is made of a metal material, for example, aluminum, copper, iron, steel, an alloy or a composite metal. The step portion 222 may be continuously distributed along the circumference of the main body portion 221, that is, in a ring shape. It may also be arranged in segments along the circumference of the main body portion 221, that is, divided into a plurality of parts, at least one part of which abuts against the fixing member 28. The first through hole 2111 and the second through hole 281 may be a light hole or a segmented step hole. In the embodiment where the first through hole 2111 and the second through hole 281 are step holes, the cross section of the step hole may include at least one straight line segment and / or at least one oblique line segment and / or at least one arc segment.
[0156] In the present embodiment, in the thickness direction of the first wall 211, the surface of the secondary battery cell 20 that exceeds the maximum height of the outer surface of the first wall 211 is the first end surface 2211. When the electrode terminals 22 of the same specification are used, the height of the secondary battery cell 20 that exceeds the first wall 211 can be reduced accordingly, thereby increasing the proportion of the space inside the shell 21 of the secondary battery cell 20 to the total space of the secondary battery cell 20, thereby increasing the energy density of the secondary battery cell 20.
[0157] The electrode terminal 22 further includes a limiting portion 223 , which protrudes from the outer peripheral surface of the main body 221 and is located inside the first wall 211 . The limiting portion 223 is used to limit the movement of the electrode terminal 22 to the outside of the housing 21 .
[0158] Exemplarily, the insulating member 26 includes a body portion 261 and a first extension portion 262, the body portion 261 is located between the fixing member 28 and the first wall 211, the body portion 261 is provided with a third through hole 2611 through which the supply terminal 22 passes, and the first extension portion 262 is located at the periphery of the fixing member 28 and is arranged around the edge of the body portion 261. The sealing member 27 is at least partially located between the first wall 211 and the limiting portion 223.
[0159] In some embodiments, in the thickness direction of the first wall 211 , a height difference H between the first end surface 2211 and the second end surface 282 satisfies: 0.5 mm≤H≤1.5 mm.
[0160] Specifically, D can be 0.5 mm, 0.6 mm, 0.7 mm, 0.8 mm, 0.9 mm, 1 mm, 1.1 mm, 1.2 mm, 1.3 mm, 1.4 mm, 1.5 mm, or any value thereof within the range obtained by combining any two of the above values. By controlling H within a suitable range, the energy density of the secondary battery cell 20 can be increased while ensuring good connection stability between the first end face 2211 and the second end face 282 as much as possible.
[0161] In some embodiments, in the radial direction of the main body 221 , a dimension W1 of the step portion 222 protruding from the outer circumferential surface of the main body 221 satisfies: 0.1 mm≤W1≤5 mm.
[0162] Specifically, W1 can be 0.1mm, 0.2mm, 0.4mm, 0.6mm, 0.8mm, 1mm, 1.2mm, 1.4mm, 1.6mm, 1.8mm, 2mm, 2.2mm, 2.4mm, 2.6mm, 2.8mm, 3mm, 3.2mm, 3.4mm, 3.6mm, 3.8mm, 4mm, 4.2mm, 4.4mm, 4.6mm, 4.8mm, 5mm, or its value is within the range obtained by combining any two of the above values. By controlling the size of the step portion 222 protruding from the outer peripheral surface of the main body 221 within a suitable range, it is beneficial to increase the contact area between the step portion 222 and the fixing member 28, and then it is beneficial to improve the connection strength between the step portion 222 and the fixing member 28.
[0163] In some embodiments, the secondary battery cell 20 includes an electrolyte, and the ion conductivity σ of the electrolyte satisfies: 7 mS / cm≤σ≤10 mS / cm.
[0164] Specifically, σ can be 7mS / cm, 7.5mS / cm, 8mS / cm, 8.5mS / cm, 9mS / cm, 9.5mS / cm, 10mS / cm, or its value is within the range obtained by combining any two of the above values. The higher the ionic conductivity of the electrolyte, the more favorable it is to the lithium ion dynamics inside the secondary battery cell 20, and the cycle performance of the secondary battery cell 20 can be improved. Too high ionic conductivity of the electrolyte is not conducive to the stability of the electrolyte, and may cause an increase in side reactions inside the battery cell 20, affecting the cycle stability of the secondary battery cell 20. In this embodiment, by controlling the ionic conductivity of the electrolyte within a suitable range, it is helpful to improve the lithium ion dynamics during the cycle of the secondary battery cell 20, and help improve the cycle performance of the secondary battery cell 20.
[0165] In some embodiments, the electrolyte includes: a solvent, the solvent includes a linear carbonate; based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass content m2 of the linear carbonate satisfies 40wt%≤m2≤70wt%.
[0166] Specifically, m2 can be 40wt%, 45wt%, 50wt%, 55wt%, 60wt%, 65wt%, 70wt%, or a value thereof within the range obtained by combining any two of the above values. In this embodiment, by selecting a linear carboxylate as a solvent and controlling its mass content in the electrolyte within a suitable range, it helps to reduce the viscosity of the electrolyte, thereby helping to improve lithium ion dynamics.
[0167] In some embodiments, the electrolyte includes: a lithium salt, the lithium salt includes LiPF6 and LiFSI; based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass content m3 of the lithium salt satisfies 13wt%≤m3≤18wt%.
[0168] Specifically, m3 can be 13wt%, 14wt%, 15wt%, 16wt%, 17wt%, 18wt%, or a value thereof within the range obtained by combining any two of the above values.
[0169] LiFSI has high ion conductivity and good high temperature stability, which helps to improve the high temperature cycle performance of the battery cell. By selecting LiPF6 and LiFSI as lithium salts and controlling their content within a suitable range, it helps to improve the lithium ion conductivity and high temperature resistance of the electrolyte, thereby helping to improve the lithium ion dynamics during the cycle of the secondary battery cell 20 and improve the cycle performance of the secondary battery cell 20.
[0170] In some embodiments, based on the total amount of the lithium salt, the molar content of LiPF6 accounts for n and satisfies: 50%≤n≤70%.
[0171] Specifically, it can be 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, or any value within the range obtained by combining any two of the above values. LiPF6 has good film-forming stability. By controlling the molar content of LiPF6 within a higher range, it helps to form a stable SEI film on the surface of the negative electrode, helping to improve the cycle performance of the secondary battery cell 20.
