[0155] [Electrolytes]
[0156] The present application provides an electrolyte comprising an electrolyte additive, wherein the electrolyte additive includes the aforementioned compound.
[0157] Therefore, the electrolyte additive used in this application can capture the R+ substance further generated by the oxidative decomposition products of the electrolyte, inhibit R+ from destroying the negative electrode SEI, and the thickening of the SEI film caused by the continuous reduction of the electrolyte negative electrode, thereby inhibiting the increase in the interface impedance of the negative electrode sheet caused by the thickening of the SEI film, thereby improving the cycle performance, capacity and safety performance of the battery.

This can further improve the cycle performance of the battery while maintaining a high battery capacity and enhancing the battery safety performance.
[0160] The electrolyte conducts ions between the positive and negative electrodes. For example, the electrolyte can be liquid, gel, or solid.
[0161] In some embodiments, the electrolyte is liquid.
[0162] In some embodiments, the electrolyte further comprises an electrolyte salt and a solvent.
[0163] In some embodiments, the type of electrolyte salt is not particularly limited and can be selected according to actual needs. Specifically, the electrolyte salt can be selected from LiN(C x F 2x+1 SO2)(C y F 2y+1 SO2), LiPF6, LiBF4, LiBOB, LiAsF6, Li(FSO2)2N, LiCF3SO3, and LiClO4, where x and y are natural numbers.

[0166] [Positive electrode]
[0167] The positive electrode sheet generally includes a positive electrode current collector and a positive electrode film layer provided on at least one surface of the positive electrode current collector, wherein the positive electrode film layer includes a positive electrode lithium supplement Li e MO g , wherein M includes one or more elements selected from the group consisting of Ni, Co, Fe, Mn, Zn, Mg, Ca, Cu, Sn, Mo, Ru, Ir, V, Nb, and Cr;
[0168] 2≤e≤6, optionally, e is 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6, and e can also be a decimal in the range of 2-6;
[0169] 2≤g≤4, optionally, g is 2, 3 or 4, and g can also be a decimal in the range of 2-4.
[0170] Therefore, the positive electrode lithium supplement agent used in this application undergoes an irreversible phase change during the first cycle of charging to produce oxygen free radicals, which may further generate oxygen. The oxygen free radicals and the possible generated oxygen cause the electrolyte to oxidatively decompose, and the decomposition products further generate R+. The electrolyte additive can effectively capture R+, inhibit the SEI film thickening caused by the continuous reduction of the electrolyte negative electrode caused by the destruction of the negative electrode SEI by R+, and inhibit the increase in the interface impedance of the negative electrode sheet, thereby improving the cycle performance, capacity and safety performance of the battery.
[0171] As an example, the positive electrode current collector has two surfaces opposite to each other in its thickness direction, and the positive electrode film layer is disposed on either or both of the two opposite surfaces of the positive electrode current collector.
[0172] In some embodiments, the positive electrode current collector may be a metal foil or a composite current collector. For example, aluminum foil may be used as the metal foil. The composite current collector may include a polymer material base and a metal layer formed on at least one surface of the polymer material base. The composite current collector may be formed by forming a metal material (aluminum, aluminum alloy, nickel, nickel alloy, titanium, titanium alloy, silver and silver alloy, etc.) on a polymer material substrate (such as a substrate of polypropylene (PP), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), polystyrene (PS), polyethylene (PE), etc.).
[0173] In some embodiments, the positive electrode lithium supplement includes one or more of Li2M1O2, Li2M2O3, Li3M3O4, Li5M4O4 and Li6M5O4, wherein M1 includes one or more elements of Ni, Co, Fe, Mn, Zn, Mg, Ca and Cu, M2 includes one or more elements of Mn, Sn, Mo, Ru and Ir, M3 includes one or more elements of V, Nb, Cr and Mo, M4 includes one or more elements of Fe, Cr, V and Mo, and M5 includes one or more elements of Co, V, Cr and Mo.
[0174] In some embodiments, in the positive electrode lithium supplement, the valence state of at least one metal element other than lithium is lower than its highest oxidation state.
[0175] In some embodiments, the highest oxidation state refers to the valence state obtained by losing or transferring all of the valence electrons (or outermost electrons) of an element.
[0176] In some embodiments, the positive lithium supplement includes Li6CoO4, Li5FeO4, Li3VO4, Li2MoO3, Li2RuO3, Li2MnO3, Li2MnO2, Li2NiO2, Li2CuO2, Li2Cu k Ni 1- k M p O2 one or more; optionally, Li2Cu k Ni 1-p M p In O2, 0<k<1, 0≤p<0.1.
[0177] In some embodiments, the mass proportion W2 of the positive electrode lithium supplement in the positive electrode film layer is 0.05%-15%, optionally 0.1%-10%, more optionally 1%-8%, and further optionally 1%-5%, for example, it can be 0.05%, 0.08%, 0.1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9%, 10%, 11%, 12%, 13%, 14%, 15% and the range of any of the above values.
[0178] Therefore, the content of the positive electrode lithium replenisher is within the above range, which can make up for the consumption of active lithium ions and make the battery have a higher gram capacity. At the same time, the electrolyte additive of the present application can effectively capture R+ further generated by the oxidation decomposition products of the electrolyte, thereby effectively inhibiting R+ from destroying the negative electrode SEI. The SEI film thickens due to the continuous reduction of the electrolyte negative electrode, which inhibits the increase of the interface impedance of the negative electrode sheet, thereby improving the cycle performance, capacity and safety performance of the battery.
[0179] In some embodiments, the mass ratio W1 of the electrolyte additive in the electrolyte and the mass ratio W2 of the positive electrode lithium supplement in the positive electrode film layer satisfy the following relationship: 0.00033≤W1 / W2≤500, optionally 0.0025≤W1 / W2≤40, more optionally 0.04≤W1 / W2≤5, W1 / W2 can be, for example, 0.00033, 0.001, 0.003, 0.005, 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.04, 0.05, 0.06, 0.07, 0.08, 0.09, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0 4.5, 4.6, 4.7, 4.8, 4.9, 5.0, 10, 13, 15, 20, 25, 30, 40, 45, 50, and any range consisting of the above values.
[0180] When the mass proportion of the compound in the electrolyte and the mass proportion of the positive electrode lithium replenisher in the positive electrode film layer are within the above range, the electrolyte additive can effectively capture R+ further generated by the electrolyte oxidation decomposition products, thereby effectively inhibiting the thickening of the SEI film caused by the reduction of R+ at the negative electrode, inhibiting the increase in the interface impedance of the negative electrode sheet, thereby improving the battery's cycle performance, capacity and safety performance.
[0181] In some embodiments, the positive electrode film layer further comprises a positive electrode active material, and the D v 50 Particle size and D of positive electrode active material v The ratio of particle size to particle size is 0.05-15, and can be 1-10, or more preferably 2-8. For example, it can be 0.05, 0.07, 0.1, 0.5, 0.8, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, or any range thereof.
[0182] Positive electrode lithium supplement D v 50 Particle size and positive electrode active material D v When the particle size ratio is within the above range, the contact area between the positive electrode lithium supplement and the electrolyte can be kept within a certain range, so as to improve the ion conductivity of the positive electrode sheet, thereby improving the capacity of the battery and the rate performance after storage, while also inhibiting the side reactions of the electrolyte and improving the cycle performance of the battery.
[0183] In some embodiments, Dv The particle size can be measured by common methods in the art; for example, according to the method in GB / T 19077-2016 "Particle size distribution by laser diffraction method", the instrument used can be a laser particle size analyzer.
[0184] In some embodiments, the active specific surface area of the positive electrode sheet is greater than 0 cm 2 / g and less than or equal to 25cm 2 / g, can be greater than 0cm 2 / g and less than or equal to 20cm 2 / g, more preferably greater than or equal to 0.5cm 2 / g and less than or equal to 20cm 2 / g, further optionally greater than or equal to 2cm 2 / g and less than or equal to 10cm 2 / g, for example, 0.01 cm 2 / g, 0.05cm 2 / g, 0.08cm 2 / g, 0.1cm 2 / g, 0.2cm 2 / g, 0.3cm 2 / g, 0.5cm 2 / g, 0.7cm 2 / g, 1cm 2 / g, 2cm 2 / g, 3cm 2 / g, 4cm 2 / g, 5cm 2 / g、6cm 2 / g、8cm 2 / g, 10cm 2 / g, 12cm 2 / g, 13cm 2 / g, 15cm 2 / g, 17cm 2 / g, 19cm 2 / g, 20cm 2 / g, 21cm 2 / g, 23cm 2 / g, 24cm 2 / g, 25cm 2 / g and any range consisting of the above numerical values.
[0185] The active specific surface area of the positive electrode sheet within the above range helps to reduce the gas production during the first cycle of charging, improve the problems of black spots on the negative electrode interface and local lithium deposition on the negative electrode, thereby inhibiting the increase in the negative electrode interface impedance, improving the cycle performance of the battery, and also helping to reduce the polarization degree of the lithium-ion battery and increase the battery capacity.
[0186] In some embodiments, the active specific surface area of the positive electrode sheet is the ratio of the active surface area of the positive electrode sheet to the weight of the positive electrode sheet, and the unit can be, for example, cm 2 The active surface area of the positive electrode refers to the effective active surface area on the positive electrode, which is generally measured by introducing an electrochemical redox couple as a probe molecule and measuring the electrochemical behavior.
[0187] In some embodiments, the testing method for the active surface area of the positive electrode is generally as follows: when a certain potential is applied, electrons are transferred to the active sites on the surface of the positive electrode active material in the positive electrode plate through the current collector, and then the probe molecules undergo an oxidation-reduction reaction; by testing the cyclic voltammetry curve of the probe molecules at different scan rates on the surface of the positive electrode active material, the oxidation peak current and the reduction peak current are obtained, and the slope is obtained by fitting the oxidation peak current or the reduction peak current with the scan rate, and the active surface area of the positive electrode plate is calculated according to the Randles-Sevick equation.
[0188] Specifically, the test method for the active surface area of the positive electrode is as follows: the positive electrode plate to be tested, the negative electrode plate and the electrolyte containing the probe molecule are assembled into a button half-cell; in a room temperature environment, the button half-cell is tested using a Chenhua electrochemical workstation (model CHI660E) at different scan rates V in the range of 0.01mV / s to 3.50mV / s, and the scanning voltage range is 2.9V to 3.5V, and a series of oxidation peak current i p (oxidation) and reduction peak current i p (reduction); the square root of the scan rate V is used as the X-axis, and a series of oxidation peak currents i p As the Y axis, the slope K is obtained. According to the Randles Sevick equation i p =2.69×10 5 ×n 2 / 3 ×c×D 1 / 2 ×A×V 1 / 2 , we get the slope K = 2.69 × 10 5 ×n 2 / 3 ×c×D 1 / 2 ×A; where n is the number of electron transfers associated with the probe molecule type, and in this test method, n is 1; D is the diffusion coefficient, and in this test method, D is 2.1×10 -6 cm 2 / s; A is the active surface area of the positive electrode; c is the concentration of probe molecules in the electrolyte. The active surface area A of the positive electrode is calculated according to the above formula.
[0189] The electrolyte in the above test method is a common electrolyte. For example, ethylene carbonate (EC), ethyl methyl carbonate (EMC), and diethyl carbonate (DEC) can be mixed in a volume ratio of 1:1:1, and then the fully dried lithium salt LiPF6 is dissolved in a mixed organic solvent at a ratio of 1 mol / L.
[0190] The redox potential of the probe molecule in the above test method may be, for example, 2 V to 4 V. The concentration of the probe molecule may be, for example, 0.03 mol / L to 0.08 mol / L, and may be 0.05 mol / L.

[0240] Test Case

[0242] According to GB / T 19077-2016 “Particle size distribution by laser diffraction method”, the particle size was determined using a Mastersizer 2000E laser particle size analyzer from Malvern Instruments Ltd., UK.
[0243] (2) Test of active specific surface area of positive electrode:
[0244] ①Materials and reagents:

[0246] Preparation of the electrolyte: Ethylene carbonate (EC), ethyl methyl carbonate (EMC), and diethyl carbonate (DEC) are mixed in a volume ratio of 1:1:1, and then fully dried LiPF6 and the probe molecule ferrocene are dissolved in the mixed organic solvent to obtain an electrolyte with a LiPF6 concentration of 1 mol / L and a probe molecule concentration c of 0.05 mol / L; the redox potential of the probe molecule is 2V~4V.
[0247] ②Test method:
[0248] The positive electrode to be tested, the above-mentioned negative electrode and the electrolyte were assembled into a button half-cell; at room temperature, the button half-cell was tested using a Chenhua electrochemical workstation (model CHI660E) at different scan rates V in the range of 0.01mV / s to 3.50mV / s, and the scanning voltage range was 2.9V to 3.5V, and a series of oxidation peak currents i p (oxidation) and reduction peak current i p (reduction); the square root of the scan rate V is used as the X-axis, and a series of oxidation peak currents i p As the Y axis, the slope K is obtained. According to the Randles Sevick equation i p =2.69×10 5 ×n 2 / 3 ×c×D 1 / 2 ×A×V 1 / 2 , we get the slope K = 2.69 × 10 5 ×n 2 / 3 ×c×D 1 / 2 ×A; where n is the number of electron transfers associated with the probe molecule type, and in this test method, n is 1; D is the diffusion coefficient, and in this test method, D is 2.1×10 -6 cm 2 / s; A is the active surface area of the positive electrode; c is the concentration of probe molecules in the electrolyte.

[0250] At 25°C, the battery was charged at a constant current of 0.33C to 3.65V, then charged at a constant voltage of 3.65V until the current was less than 0.05C. The lithium-ion battery was then discharged at a constant current of 0.33C to 2.5V, and its discharge capacity was recorded as C0 (mAh). The gram capacity of the battery is C0 / W3 (mAh / g), where W3 is the total mass (g) of the positive electrode active material and the positive electrode lithium supplement.
[0251] (4) Battery 45℃ cycle performance test:
[0252] At 45°C, charge the battery at a constant current of 1C to a voltage of 3.65V, then charge at a constant voltage of 3.65V to a current ≤ 0.05C, and then discharge the battery at a constant current of 1C to a voltage of 2.5V.

Repeat the charge and discharge cycles in this way, calculate the battery cycle capacity retention rate according to the following formula, and record the number of cycles corresponding to the cycle capacity retention rate reaching 80%.
[0253] Battery cycle capacity retention rate (%) = (discharge capacity of the battery at the Nth cycle / discharge capacity of the battery at the first cycle) × 100%
[0254] (5) Test of the anode EIS impedance growth rate after the battery is cycled 50 times at 45°C:
[0255] Before the cycle test, the battery was charged to 50% SOC and then disassembled. The negative electrode plate was removed and assembled into a button half-cell of negative electrode, electrolyte and lithium plate. The button half-cell was placed on the electrochemical workstation, and the impedance curve was tested using an EIS impedance tester. The anode interface SEI film impedance R0 was calculated by the equivalent circuit fitting method. The test frequency range was 0.01-10kHz, and the disturbance voltage was set to 10mV.
[0256] At 45°C, the lithium-ion battery is charged at a constant current of 1C to a voltage of 3.65V, then charged at a constant voltage of 3.65V to a current ≤ 0.05C, and then the battery is discharged at a constant current of 1C to a voltage of 2.5V. This is a charge and discharge process. The lithium-ion battery is cycled 50 times according to this process, and then the negative electrode plate is disassembled according to the above method and the anode interface SEI film impedance Rt is tested after 50 cycles. The impedance growth rate is calculated according to the following formula.
[0257] Impedance growth rate (%) = 100% × (Rt-R0) / R0
