Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of lithium ion batteries, and in particular relates to a copper coordinated cationic cellulose nanofibril solid electrolyte and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Among various electrochemical energy storage devices, lithium-ion batteries have the advantages of low self-discharge rate, large charge and discharge rate, high energy density, and long cycle life. They are still the ideal power source for electric vehicles, hybrid vehicles, portable electronic products and even large-scale energy storage systems.
[0003] The electrolytes commonly used in lithium-ion batteries are organic solvent-based liquid electrolytes, which are usually composed of organic solvents, lithium salts, and additives. Although such electrolytes have advantages such as high ionic conductivity and good interface wettability, the energy density of commercial liquid lithium-ion batteries (about 260W·h·kg -1 ) has approached the theoretical limit and is difficult to improve further; at the same time, organic solvents are easy to leak and burn, making the battery prone to accidents such as combustion or explosion during overcharging or short circuiting, endangering the personal and property safety of users.
[0004] Polymer solid electrolytes have the characteristics of no organic solvents and can inhibit the growth of lithium dendrites, which can improve the safety performance of lithium-ion batteries. The most commonly used polymer solid electrolyte raw material is polyethylene oxide (PEO), which binds to Li through ether bonds in the amorphous region. + Binding / dissociation complete Li + However, PEO solid electrolytes have defects such as low ionic conductivity, poor mechanical properties, and high glass transition temperature due to high crystallinity at room temperature. Their inability to degrade naturally and their non-renewability also go against the concept of sustainable green production, making them difficult to apply directly in actual production.
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to select an environmentally friendly material that has excellent performance and green environmental protection properties to prepare solid electrolytes. Summary of the Invention
