[0050] The following embodiments are provided to better understand this application and are not limited to the preferred embodiments described herein. They do not constitute a limitation on the content and scope of protection of this application. Any product that is the same as or similar to this application, derived by anyone under the guidance of this application or by combining features of this application with other prior art, falls within the scope of protection of this application.
[0051] For experiments not specifically described in the examples, the procedures or conditions should be followed according to the conventional experimental procedures described in the literature in this field. Reagents or instruments whose manufacturers are not specified are all commercially available conventional reagent products.
[0052] In a first aspect, this application provides a negative electrode sheet, including a current collector and a negative electrode active material layer disposed on at least one surface of the current collector;
[0053] The negative electrode active material layer includes a negative electrode active material, and the negative electrode active material includes a first negative electrode active material and a second negative electrode active material;
[0054] The negative electrode active material satisfies the following condition: AB = 0.01–0.75 g / cm³. 3 ;
[0055] A is the ultimate compaction density of the first negative electrode active material, and B is the ultimate compaction density of the second negative electrode active material.
[0056] In the negative electrode active material layer, along the direction away from the current collector, the negative electrode active material layer includes n coating layers, where 3≤n≤10, and n is an integer;
[0057] Along the direction away from the current collector, the content of the first negative electrode active material in the n coating layers gradually decreases, while the content of the second negative electrode active material gradually increases.
[0058] In one possible implementation, the formula y is satisfied. i =aln(i)+b;
[0059] In the formula, i is the i-th layer of n coating layers, y i The percentage of the first negative electrode active material in the i-th layer out of the total mass of the negative electrode active material in the i-th layer;
[0060] Preferably, y1 = 1, y n =0; Among the n coating layers, the coating layer closest to the current collector is the first layer, and the coating layer furthest from the current collector is the nth layer.
[0061] The total mass of the negative electrode active material refers to the sum of the masses of the first negative electrode active material and the second negative electrode active material in the i-th layer.
[0062] Ultimate compaction density refers to the maximum compaction a material can withstand, typically determined by observing whether SEM particles break or electrode sheets fracture during the rolling process. The recommended compaction density for materials is slightly lower than the ultimate compaction density by 0.02 to 0.05.
[0063] By adjusting the proportions of the first and second anode active materials, efficient channels for ions and electrons are constructed, reducing lithium-ion diffusion resistance and slowing down battery capacity decay. This is achieved by controlling the proportions of active materials in different coating layers to meet specific requirements. i =aln(i)+b, achieving a second negative electrode active material with good and stable outermost dynamics, and a first negative electrode active material with high energy density and high compaction at the innermost layer, thus meeting the core requirements of high safety performance, high energy density, and fast charging. The content ratio y of the first and second negative electrode active materials is... i / (1-y i The range is (0, +∞).
[0064] a and b are constants, which can be determined by converting y1 and y2. n The result is obtained by substituting into the formula.
[0065] For example:
[0066] The negative electrode active material layer consists of 5 coating layers, i.e., n=5; y1=1, y5=0 are defined, meaning that the negative electrode active material in the first layer is the first negative electrode active material, and the negative electrode active material in the fifth layer is the second negative electrode active material. Calculations yield a=-0.621, b=1, which satisfies:
[0067] y i = -0.621ln(i)+1.
[0068] In one possible implementation, along the direction away from the current collector, the thickness of the first coating layer to the (n+1) / 2nd coating layer gradually decreases, and the thickness of the (n+1) / 2nd coating layer to the nth coating layer gradually increases;
[0069] Preferably, the thickness h of the i-th layer i Satisfy: h i =di 2 +ei+f;
[0070] Preferably, h (n+1) / 2 =0, h1=h n ;
[0071] Preferably, h1 ≤ 130 μm.
[0072] In order to prevent the cycle stability from being unable to be better balanced due to the outermost high-dynamics second negative active material being too thin, the thickness of the outermost coating layer (the second negative active material content is the highest) is set to be larger; in order to maximize the overall energy density and rate performance of the battery cell, the thickness of the innermost coating layer with high compaction and high capacity (the first negative active material content is the highest) is set to be larger. When the thicknesses of the layers in the negative active material layer satisfy h i = di 2 + ei+ f, the thicknesses of the first layer and the n-th layer of the negative active layer can be moderate, which can ensure high dynamics and further improve the energy density of the battery, and greatly improve the overall energy density and safety performance of the battery cell.
[0073] d, e, and f are constants, which can be obtained by substituting h (n+1) / 2 and h n into the formula.
[0074] Optionally, the negative active material layer includes n coating layers, when n is even, h (n+1) / 2 = 0; when n is odd, h (n+1) / 2 ≥ 5 μm.
[0075] Exemplarily:
[0076] The negative active material layer includes 5 coating layers, i.e. n = 5; h3 = 5 μm, h1 = h5 = 100 μm are limited, d = 23.75, e = -142.5, and f = 218.75 are calculated, i.e. h1 = 100 μm, h2 = 23.75 μm, h3 = 5 μm, h4 = 23.75 μm, and h5 = 100 μm are satisfied.
[0077] h i = 23.75i 2 - 142.5i + 218.75
[0078] In a possible implementation, along the direction away from the current collector, the D50 i of the n coating layers gradually increases; the D50 i of the negative active material in the i-th layer is the particle size corresponding to the cumulative volume distribution of 50%, which can be obtained by laser particle size testing. Gradually increasing the particle size of the negative active material away from the current collector side can delay the consumption of the negative electrode film-forming additive in the electrolyte due to the too small particle size of the surface layer negative active material, thereby delaying the problem of black spot lithium precipitation of the battery cell caused by electrolyte bridge breaking.
[0079] Preferably, D50 i = gi+ h; in the formula, g > 0 and h > 0;
[0080] Preferably, D50 n - D50 1≤ 5 μm;
[0081] g, h are constants, calculated by substituting D50 n and D501 into the formula. Exemplary:
[0082] The negative active material layer comprises 5 coating layers, i.e. n = 5; D501 = 10 μm, D50 n = 15 μm, g = 1.25, h = 8.75 are calculated, i.e. satisfy:

[0089] X is the gram capacity of the first negative active material, and Y is the gram capacity of the second negative active material;
[0090] Preferably, the gram capacity of the first negative active material is > 355 mAh / g;
[0091] Preferably, the gram capacity of the second negative active material is ≤ 354 mAh / g;
[0092] In a possible implementation, the first negative active material is a graphite material, the gram capacity of the first negative active material is 357-360 mAh / g, preferably 357-360 mAh / g; the second negative active material is a graphite material, the gram capacity of the second negative active material is 330-354 mAh / g, preferably 350-354 mAh / g.

[0094] In a possible implementation, M-N≥2 is satisfied;
[0095] M is the OI value of the first negative electrode active material, and N is the OI value of the second negative electrode active material;
[0096] Preferably, the OI value of the first negative electrode active material is 4-8;
[0097] Preferably, the OI value of the second negative electrode active material is 2-5;
[0098] The OI value (Orientation Index) is a parameter describing the degree of order of material arrangement. The OI value is calculated by analyzing the X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectrum, which involves the ratio of the diffraction signals of the (002) and (004) crystal planes to the diffraction signal of the (110) crystal plane.
[0099] Graphite materials with high OI values and high orientation degrees generally have better electrical conductivity and thermal stability, thereby improving the performance of lithium ion batteries. With decreasing orientation degrees, the ability to charge at high rates gradually improves.
[0100] In a possible implementation, the particle size Dv50(1) of the first negative electrode active material is 5-15 μm;
[0101] In a possible implementation, the particle size Dv50(2) of the second negative electrode active material is 8-20 μm.

At the same time, the negative pole piece is provided with a groove area, the mechanical strength of the groove area is reduced, and the elasticity is good, which can effectively alleviate the volume expansion caused by excessive compaction of the negative pole, thereby effectively alleviating the expansion of the negative pole during charging and discharging, improving the safety and life of the lithium ion battery. It can also enhance mass transfer, reduce ion impedance, and shorten the transmission distance of lithium ions.
[0108] In a possible implementation, the depth h of the groove area satisfies: 0.05h n <h≤h n .
[0109] The depth h of the groove area satisfies the above limitation, which can obviously improve the interface problem, and at the same time avoid the influence of the too deep groove area on the protection of the outermost second negative active material to the inner negative active material, further improving the safety performance of the battery.

[0116] In a possible implementation, the groove area is prepared by laser wire drawing;

[0208] Test Example
[0209] 1. Limiting compaction density test:
[0210] Limiting compaction density = surface density / thickness of the material
[0211] (1) The electrode tab dried after coating was cut into an electrode tab with a specification of 300 mm x 250 mm using a paper cutter, and the thickness of the electrode tab at three different positions was measured, and the electrode tab with a thickness error < 3 pm was selected as the experimental tab;
[0212] (2) Using a circular sampler, three electrode tabs with an area of 100 cm 2 and current collectors were cut from different positions of the original electrode tab described in step (1), and the weights of the cut electrode tab and current collector were measured, and the average value was taken as M0 and M1, and the surface density of the electrode tab was calculated according to the formula: S = (M0-M1) / 100cm 2 ;
[0213] (3) Set the linear speed of the double-roller mill to 2.0 m / min, and set the roll pressure to start at 1.3 MPa. After the pressure is stable, the electrode sheet selected in step (1) is put in for rolling. The roll pressure is increased by 0.65 MPa in turn until waves appear on both sides of the electrode sheet, and vertical lines appear in the middle of the electrode sheet. At this time, it is the limit compaction density of the material in this system;
[0214] (4) Measure the thickness of the electrode sheet at three different positions after rolling under different pressures using a micrometer, and record them as L1, L2, and L3. If the difference between any two of the three values is 3 μm or more, the sheet is considered unqualified. Record the thickness of the qualified electrode sheet, take the average value, and record it as Li. Then measure the thickness of the current collector after rolling using a micrometer, and record it as Lo. The formula for calculating the limit compaction density is P = S / (Li-Lo).
[0215] 2. Furnace temperature test:
[0216] Discharge the battery at 0.2C to the cut-off voltage of 3.0V in an environment of 25℃±3℃; stand for 5 min; charge at 0.5C constant current and constant voltage to the upper limit voltage, with a cut-off current of 0.05C; test the full-state voltage, internal resistance, and thickness at 25℃±3℃, and take pictures before testing. Place the full battery into a test box, and heat the test box at a temperature rise rate of (5±2)℃ / min. When the temperature in the box reaches 140℃±2℃, maintain the temperature for 60 min. After the test is completed, test the voltage and internal resistance, and take pictures after testing. If there is no fire or explosion, it is considered to pass the furnace temperature test.
[0217] 3. Cycle test:
[0218] Perform cycle test for 1000T under the condition of 25℃±5℃, and the test conditions are 2C-3.5V(1C cut-off) to 1C-3.65V(0.05C cut-off) / 0.5C-2.5V. Monitor the discharge capacity of each cycle online, and calculate the capacity retention rate.
[0219] 4. Disassemble the full battery after 300T and 600T cycles, and observe whether black spots appear on the anode interface.
[0220] 5. The test method for the rate performance of the battery is:
[0221] 25±5℃, 10min; 0.2C discharge to 3.0V, 10min; certain rate charge (0.2C / 0.3C / 0.4C…), cut-off current 0.05C, 10min, 0.5C discharge to 3.0V; 10min. After 30 cycles of the above steps, the battery was disassembled at full charge. The anode interface was observed. If the anode plate was golden yellow without abnormality and no lithium precipitation, the battery supported the corresponding rate performance. If there were gray / brown / white particles covering on the interface, the battery precipitated lithium, and at this time the battery did not support the corresponding rate performance. The maximum rate of the battery without lithium precipitation was the rate performance of the battery. The rate performance was good when the rate performance was 1.5 or more. The battery with good rate performance could be the standard for the battery to be shipped.
[0222] The test results are shown in Table 4.

[0224]

[0226] As can be seen from the comparison of the examples and the comparative examples in Table 1, the application can avoid the problems of local black spots or lithium precipitation at the anode interface, improve the cycle stability, and significantly improve the rate performance of the lithium ion battery.
[0227] As can be seen from the comparison of Example 1, Example 6, Example 7 and Example 8, the formula y i = aln(i) + b can further improve the cycle performance and rate performance of the battery.
[0228] As can be seen from the comparison of Example 1, Example 9, Example 10 and Example 11, the formula h i = di 2 + ei + f can further improve the cycle performance and rate performance of the battery.
[0229] As can be seen from the comparison of Example 1, Example 12, Example 13 and Example 14, the formula D50 i = gi + h can further improve the cycle performance and rate performance of the battery.
[0230] As can be seen from the comparison of Example 1, Example 15, Example 16 and Example 17, the formula 0.05h n < h ≤ h n can further improve the cycle performance and rate performance of the battery.
[0231] As can be seen from the comparison of Example 1 and Example 18, the negative plate provided with the groove area can further improve the cycle performance and rate performance of the battery.
