[0039] According to one embodiment of the present invention, in step one, the stripping solvent includes N-methylpyrrolidone, dimethylacetamide, N,N-dimethylformamide, triethyl phosphate and dimethyl sulfoxide, wherein the mass ratio of N-methylpyrrolidone, dimethylacetamide, N,N-dimethylformamide, triethyl phosphate and dimethyl sulfoxide is (1-3): (0.5-1.5): (2-4): (0.5-1.5): (0.5-1.5).
[0040] In one embodiment of the present invention, in step 1, the stripping solvent includes N-methylpyrrolidone and dimethyl sulfoxide, wherein the mass ratio of N-methylpyrrolidone to dimethyl sulfoxide is (2-4):(6-8).
[0041] In one embodiment of the present invention, in the step 2, the binder includes at least one of polyvinylidene fluoride, styrene butadiene rubber and carboxymethyl cellulose. The mass percentage of the binder to the solid mass in the positive electrode material solution is 0.05-1.5%, for example, it can be 0.05%, 0.1%, 0.15%, 0.2%, 0.25%, 0.3%, 0.35%, 0.4%, 0.45%, 0.5%, 0.55%, 0.6%, 0.65%, 0.7%, 0.75%, 0.8%, 0.85%, 0.9%, 1%, 1.05%, 1.1%, 1.15%, 1.2%, 1.25%, 1.3%, 1.35%, 1.4%, 1.45%, 1.5%.
[0042] In one embodiment of the present invention, in step one, the waste positive electrode sheet is a waste positive electrode sheet that has not been soaked in electrolyte; the positive electrode coating material of the waste positive electrode sheet includes at least one of lithium iron phosphate, lithium iron manganese phosphate, lithium cobalt oxide, lithium manganese oxide, ternary material and lithium-rich material.
[0043] According to one embodiment of the present invention, in step one, the mass ratio of the waste positive electrode sheet to the stripping solvent is (35-85):(15-65), for example, it can be 35:15, 35:20, 35:30, 35:40, 35:50, 35:65, 50:15, 50:20, 50:30, 50:40, 50:55, 50:65, 70:15, 70:20, 70:30, 70:40, 70:55, 70:65, 85:15, 85:20, 85:30, 85:40, 85:55, 85:65.
[0044] In one embodiment of the present invention, the positive electrode current collector may be any material suitable for use as a positive electrode current collector for lithium-ion batteries in the art, such as aluminum foil or composite aluminum foil.
[0045] In one embodiment of the present invention, in step 1 and step 2, the stirring line speed of the stirring tank is 3 to 35 m / s, for example, 3 m / s, 5 m / s, 8 m / s, 9 m / s, 10 m / s, 15 m / s, 17 m / s, 20 m / s, 25 m / s, 30 m / s, 31 m / s, 32 m / s, 34 m / s, 35 m / s. When the stirring line speed is within this range, sufficient shear force and turbulence intensity can be generated to fully disperse the positive electrode coating and the current collector in the stirring tank to avoid material agglomeration or precipitation.
[0046] According to one embodiment of the present invention, in step 2, the stirring time of the stirring tank is 5 to 7 hours, for example, it can be 5h, 5.1h, 5.2h, 5.3h, 5.4h, 5.5h, 5.6h, 5.7h, 5.8h, 5.9h, 6h, 6.1h, 6.2h, 6.3h, 6.4h, 6.5h, 6.6h, 6.7h, 6.8h, 6.9h, and 7h.
[0047] In one embodiment of the present invention, in step 1 and step 2, the magnetic field strength of demagnetization is 6000-12000Gs, for example, 6000Gs, 7000Gs, 8000Gs, 9000Gs, 10000Gs, 11000Gs, 12000Gs. A higher magnetic field strength can more effectively capture the magnetic particles in the positive electrode slurry, especially those weakly magnetic tiny particles, thereby improving the thoroughness of demagnetization and avoiding the adverse effects of impurities on battery performance, such as reducing battery capacity and increasing internal resistance; at the same time, under the action of a strong magnetic field, the magnetic particles can be adsorbed onto the demagnetization equipment more quickly, thereby shortening the time of the entire demagnetization process and improving production efficiency.
[0048] In one embodiment of the present invention, in step 2, the solid content of the positive electrode slurry is 35-85%, for example, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%. Appropriate solid content helps to optimize the electrode structure and ensure uniform coating of the positive electrode material. This can not only improve the uniformity and consistency of the battery, but also reduce the performance degradation caused by material shedding or structural changes, thereby extending the cycle life of the battery.
[0049] In one embodiment of the present invention, in step 3, the surface density of the positive electrode sheet is 0.05-0.7 mg / mm 2 . Reasonable positive electrode surface density design can also enhance battery safety and optimize battery cycle life. By optimizing the electrode structure and material selection, the risk of excessive heat generated by the battery during charging and discharging can be reduced, thereby avoiding serious safety accidents such as battery thermal runaway or even explosion. In addition, through reasonable process control and material selection, the problem of excessive internal stress or excessive energy consumption of the battery caused by excessive surface density can be avoided, thereby extending the battery cycle life.
[0050] According to a second aspect of the present invention, a positive electrode sheet is provided, which is prepared by the above-mentioned positive electrode sheet preparation method; the film resistance of the positive electrode sheet is ≤1Ω / cm 2 ; Lower membrane resistance means that electrons are conducted more smoothly in the positive electrode sheet, reducing resistance loss, thereby improving the battery's charging and discharging efficiency, which helps the battery complete the charging and discharging process in a shorter time, improving the battery's overall performance, and can also reduce the heat generated by the battery during the charging and discharging process, helping to improve the battery's safety and reliability.
[0051] Peel force ≥ 15N / m. Peel force ≥ 15N / m means that the adhesion between the current collector and the positive electrode coating is stronger, which helps prevent interlayer separation caused by volume expansion or contraction during the charge and discharge process of the battery, thereby improving the stability of the battery structure.
[0052] According to a third aspect of the present invention, a lithium-ion battery is provided, comprising a positive electrode sheet, a negative electrode sheet and a separator between the positive electrode sheet and the negative electrode sheet, wherein the positive electrode sheet is the positive electrode sheet described above.

For example, the negative electrode current collector may include but is not limited to metal foil, and more specifically may include but is not limited to copper foil.
[0055] The separator can be selected from various separators used in lithium-ion batteries known to those skilled in the art, such as polyethylene separators, polypropylene separators, various composite separators, ceramic separators, and the like.

[0057] The present invention will be further described below by means of specific examples.
[0058] Example 1
[0059] Preparation of positive electrode:
[0060] Step 1: Add 10 kg of waste positive electrode sheets and 5 kg of stripping solvent into a stirring kettle, stir at a linear speed of 3 m / s until the positive electrode coating on the current collector is completely detached, filter, and demagnetize the filtrate with an 8000 Gs iron remover to obtain a positive electrode material solution; wherein the stripping solvent is dimethyl sulfoxide and triethyl phosphate;
[0061] Step 2: Add the positive electrode material liquid and 0.05 PVDF into a stirring kettle for dispersion, with a stirring line speed of 26 m / s and a stirring time of 6 h, demagnetize with an 8000 Gs iron remover, and sieve to obtain a positive electrode slurry;
[0062] Step 3: Apply the positive electrode slurry on the positive electrode current collector and dry it at 105° C. to obtain a positive electrode sheet.
[0063] Preparation of lithium-ion batteries:
[0064] The negative electrode sheet, the separator and the positive electrode sheet are interlaced and then packaged with an aluminum-plastic film to prepare a battery cell, which is placed in a battery shell, an electrolyte is added, and then sealed to obtain a lithium-ion battery. Among them, the active material of the negative electrode sheet is graphite; the separator is a ceramic separator; the electrolyte salt of the electrolyte is lithium hexafluorophosphate, and the solvent is ethylene carbonate, dimethyl carbonate and ethyl methyl carbonate in a mass ratio of 1:2:1, and the electrolyte concentration is 1 mol / L.
[0065] Table 1 shows the data of Examples 1 to 11 and Comparative Example 1. The rest is the same as Example 1 and will not be described again.
[0066]
[0067]
[0068] The positive electrode slurries of Examples 1 to 11 and Comparative Example 1 were subjected to fineness tests to characterize the dispersibility of the positive electrode slurries. The test results are shown in Table 2.
[0069] The positive electrode sheets of Examples 1 to 11 and Comparative Example 1 were tested for electrode sheet peeling and membrane resistance using a tensile tester and a membrane resistance meter, respectively. The test results are shown in Table 2.
[0070] Table 2
[0071]
[0072]
[0073] As shown in Table 1, from the comparison of the fineness data of Examples 1 to 11 and Comparative Example 1, it can be seen that the positive electrode slurries of Examples 1 to 11 are very evenly dispersed without agglomeration, while the positive electrode slurry of Comparative Example 1 has agglomeration and caking and cannot be directly prepared into positive electrode sheets; this shows that by using the stripping solvent of the present invention to impregnate waste positive electrode sheets, the obtained positive electrode material liquid has good dispersibility and no agglomeration, can be directly prepared into positive electrode slurry, and coated to form new positive electrode sheets, thereby reducing the cost of recycling waste positive electrode sheets.
[0074] By comparing the fineness data of Example 1 and Comparative Example 1, it can be seen that the dispersion of the positive electrode slurry of Example 1 is better than that of Comparative Example 1, which shows that the use of dimethyl sulfoxide and N-methylpyrrolidone stripping solvents is more conducive to the dissolution and dispersion of the positive electrode coating, because dimethyl sulfoxide has better solubility than PVDF, which can make PVDF better dissolved and dispersed, so a better slurry fineness value is obtained; it also further illustrates that the use of N-methylpyrrolidone alone cannot obtain a uniformly dispersed, non-lump, non-agglomerated positive electrode slurry, and cannot directly prepare a positive electrode sheet.
[0075] Comparing the peeling force data of Example 1 and Comparative Example 1, it can be seen that the peeling force of the positive electrode sheet of Example 1 is better than that of Comparative Example 1. This is because the fineness of the positive electrode slurry of Example 1 is smaller than that of Comparative Example 1, and the slurry dispersion uniformity is also higher, so a positive electrode sheet with higher peeling force can be obtained.
[0076] Comparing the diaphragm resistance data of Example 1 and Comparative Example 1, it can be seen that the diaphragm resistance of the positive electrode sheet of Example 1 is better than that of Comparative Example 1. This is because the fineness of the positive electrode slurry of Example 1 is smaller than that of Comparative Example 1, the slurry dispersion is more uniform, and a positive electrode sheet with a smaller diaphragm resistance can be obtained.
[0077] According to the disclosure and teaching of the above description, those skilled in the art to which the present invention belongs can also change and modify the above embodiment. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the above specific embodiment, and any obvious improvement, replacement or modification made by those skilled in the art on the basis of the present invention belongs to the protection scope of the present invention. In addition, although some specific terms are used in this specification, these terms are only for the convenience of description and do not constitute any limitation to the present invention.
