Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of lithium batteries, and in particular to an electrode plate and a lithium ion battery. Background Art

[0002] Since its development, lithium-ion batteries have been increasingly used in various fields such as electric vehicles, consumer electronics, and energy storage. In order to better meet the market demand for fast charging and high-rate discharge of lithium batteries, it is necessary to reduce the internal resistance of lithium batteries.

[0003] For lithium-ion batteries, solid electrolytes have good lithium ion conductivity, chemical stability, electrochemical stability and thermal stability. Therefore, coating the surface of the electrode current collector with a solid electrolyte coating can reduce the internal resistance of the battery and improve the safety of the battery. However, a single solid electrolyte coating only has lithium ion conductivity, and its electronic conductivity is extremely low, which cannot conduct electricity and thus affects the battery's cycle performance.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for an electrode plate to reduce the internal resistance of the battery, improve the cycle performance of the battery, and further improve the fast charging and high-rate discharge performance of the battery. Summary of the invention

[0005] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention discloses an electrode plate and a lithium-ion battery. The technical solution of the present invention is implemented as follows:

[0006] The first aspect of the present invention discloses a battery cell unit, comprising an electrode plate and a separator, wherein the electrode plate comprises a current collector and an active material layer at least arranged on one side of the current collector, and the electrode plate further comprises a functional layer;

[0007] One side of the functional layer is bonded to the active material layer, and the other side of the functional layer is bonded to the separator;

[0008] The functional layer includes an inorganic solid electrolyte, a polymer and a conductive agent.

[0009] Preferably, the polymer is a polymer solid electrolyte.

[0010] Preferably, the inorganic solid electrolyte includes at least one of a sulfide solid electrolyte, an oxide solid electrolyte and a halide solid electrolyte.

[0011] Preferably, the mass ratio of the inorganic solid electrolyte, the polymer solid electrolyte and the conductive agent is (5%-99%): (1%-94%): (0.01%-10%).

[0015] Preferably, the electrode plate is a positive electrode plate, the current collector is a positive electrode current collector, and the active material layer includes a positive electrode active material, a conductive agent and a binder.

[0016] Preferably, the electrode plate is a negative electrode plate, the current collector is a negative electrode current collector, and the active material layer includes a negative electrode active material, a conductive agent and a binder.

[0017] The second aspect of the present invention discloses a lithium-ion battery, which includes the battery cell unit as described in the first aspect.

[0018] The present invention improves the interface stability and electrochemical working window between the diaphragm and the active material layer by arranging a functional layer on the electrode plate. The inorganic solid electrolyte, polymer solid electrolyte and conductive agent in the functional layer work together to reduce the internal resistance of the battery, improve the lithium ion cycle performance, and further improve the fast charging and high-rate discharge performance of the battery. At the same time, in the present invention, the functional layer is compounded onto the active material layer by dry transfer, which can avoid the solid electrolyte entering the pores of the active material layer during wet coating, forming a wrap around the active material, resulting in electronic insulation between the active materials, and affecting the electrical performance of the battery.

[0026] When traditional lithium-ion batteries are working, the internal resistance of the lithium-ion batteries will affect the cycle performance of the lithium-ion batteries, which in turn affects the fast charging and high-rate discharge performance of the batteries.

[0027] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention proposes a technical solution, by setting a functional layer between the active material layer of the electrode plate and the diaphragm, the combined effect of the inorganic solid electrolyte, polymer solid electrolyte and conductive agent therein can reduce the internal resistance of the battery, improve the lithium ion cycle performance, and thereby improve the fast charging and high-rate discharge performance of the battery.

[0028] The first aspect of the present invention discloses a battery cell unit, comprising an electrode plate and a separator, wherein the electrode plate comprises a current collector and an active material layer at least arranged on one side of the current collector, and the electrode plate further comprises a functional layer;

[0029] One side of the functional layer is bonded to the active material layer, and the other side of the functional layer is bonded to the separator;

[0030] The functional layer includes an inorganic solid electrolyte, a polymer and a conductive agent.

[0031] One side of the functional layer is bonded to the active material layer, and the other side is bonded to the diaphragm. The inorganic solid electrolyte and polymer solid electrolyte in the functional layer can improve the electrochemical working window and interface stability between the active material layer and the diaphragm. At the same time, the combined action of the inorganic solid electrolyte, polymer solid electrolyte and conductive agent in the functional layer can reduce the internal resistance of the battery, improve the lithium ion cycle performance, and thereby improve the fast charging and high-rate discharge performance of the battery.

[0032] In specific applications, the conductive agent is selected from one or more of carbon black, carbon nanotubes, carbon fibers, graphene, and metal particles; single-walled carbon nanotubes are preferred, which can be packaged separately or in a dispersed slurry. The use of single-walled carbon nanotubes is easier to help build a conductive network and has a lower cost. The above is only an example and is not a limitation.

[0033] In some embodiments, the polymer is a polymer solid electrolyte.

[0034] The polymer used in this application is a polymer solid electrolyte, which is different from a gel polymer and reduces the possibility of its penetration into the pores of the active material layer, and reduces the possibility of its coating on the active material and thus causing electronic insulation between the active materials. The polymer solid electrolyte can be used as both an electrolyte and a binder, without the need to add additional binders, and can further improve the cycle performance of the battery.

[0035] In specific applications, the polymer solid electrolyte includes at least one of polyacrylic acid, polyethylene oxide, polyacrylonitrile, polymethyl methacrylate, polyvinylidene fluoride, and poly(ethylene methyl carbonate).

[0036] As used in the present invention, "at least one" means, in addition to single selection, combinations of two or more are also included.

[0037] In some embodiments, the inorganic solid electrolyte includes at least one of sulfide solid electrolytes, oxide solid electrolytes, and halide solid electrolytes.

[0038] Using an inorganic solid electrolyte compensates for the problem of poor ionic conductivity of the polymer solid electrolyte itself. Compared with the case of simply using a polymer solid electrolyte, it can better improve the cycling performance of the battery. At the same time, the inorganic solid electrolyte has high strength and good thermal stability, which can further improve the mechanical strength and thermal stability of the battery, thereby enhancing the safety performance of the battery.

[0039] In specific applications, the halide solid electrolyte can be selected from: Li 2 CdC l4 、Li 2 MgC l4 、Li 2 Cd I4 、Li 2 ZnI 4 、Li 3 OCl、LiI、Li 5 ZnI 4 、Li 3 OCl 1-x Br x (where 0 < x < 1) and their combinations.

[0041] In specific applications, oxide solid electrolytes include: perovskite type, garnet type, LISICON type, NASICON type. Among them, the perovskite type solid electrolyte material is preferably LLTO (Li0.33 La 0.56 TiO 3 , lithium lanthanum titanate / lithium lanthanum titanate), the garnet-type solid electrolyte material is preferably LLZO (lithium lanthanum zirconium oxide / lithium lanthanum zirconate, Li 7 La 3 Zr 2 O 12 ); NASICON (sodium super ion conductor) type solid electrolyte material is preferably lithium aluminum titanium phosphate LATP (Li 1.3 Al 0.3 Ti 1.7 (PO 4 ) 3 ).

[0042] In some embodiments, the mass ratio of the inorganic solid electrolyte, the polymer solid electrolyte and the conductive agent is (5%-99%): (1%-94%): (0.01%-10%).

[0043] In some preferred embodiments, the mass ratio of the polymer solid electrolyte in the functional layer is 50%-90%.

[0044] The mass ratio of polymer solid electrolyte within this range can improve the adhesion between inorganic solid electrolyte and conductive agent, help better construct a conductive network, and improve the cycle performance of the battery.

[0045] In some embodiments, the functional layer is compounded on the active material layer by dry transfer. Dry transfer can prevent the inorganic solid electrolyte and polymer solid electrolyte in the functional layer from entering the pores of the active material layer during the wet coating process, wrapping the active material, resulting in electronic insulation between the active materials, and affecting the electrical performance of the battery.

[0046] In some embodiments, the thickness of the functional layer is 0.5 μm to 10 μm.

[0047] In specific applications, the thickness of each functional layer can be 0.5 μm, 1 μm, 1.5 μm, 2 μm, 2.5 μm, 3 μm, 3.5 μm, 4 μm, 4.5 μm, 5 μm, 5.5 μm, 6 μm, 6.5 μm, 7 μm, 8 μm, 8.5 μm, 9 μm, 9.5 μm, 10 μm. The above values ​​are only examples and are not limiting.

The above are all common positive electrode active materials in the field, which are only examples and not limitations.

[0053] In specific applications, when the active material is a negative electrode active material, it can be selected from any one or a combination of at least two of artificial graphite, natural graphite, microcrystalline graphite, soft carbon and hard carbon.
