Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of olefin polymer batteries, and particularly relates to a polymer solid-state battery electrolyte, a solid-state lithium battery, and a method thereof. Background Technology

[0002] Solid-state batteries and their electrolytes offer advantages such as high energy density, enhanced safety, significantly reduced negative electrode material usage, and smaller size, minimizing the need for separators and electrolytes in traditional batteries. The distance between the positive and negative electrodes in solid-state batteries can be reduced to just a few to tens of micrometers, drastically reducing battery thickness. This leads to the prospect of miniaturization, thin-film production, and flexibility. Solid-state batteries are also safer, potentially solving the problems of lithium dendrite formation and separator puncture leading to short circuits in traditional lithium batteries. Furthermore, solid-state batteries promise to address the issues of organic liquid electrolytes in traditional batteries, which are prone to side reactions, oxidation, decomposition, gas generation, and combustion at high temperatures. Additionally, the large amount of valuable metal components in traditional electrolyte lithium batteries entering the environment poses serious harm to humans and the environment. Meanwhile, lithium, cobalt, and nickel are scarce metals with high demand, making the recycling and reuse of metals from traditional electrolyte batteries an urgent issue. Therefore, finding efficient and cost-effective recycling and environmentally friendly methods for the green and sustainable development of lithium batteries is the right path.

[0003] Polymer solid-state batteries have many advantages, such as high energy density, miniaturization, ultra-thinness, lightweight, and high safety. Based on these advantages, lithium polymer batteries can be made into batteries of any shape and capacity to meet the needs of various products. However, the chemical properties of polymer lithium are very active, and the internal temperature of the battery will continue to rise. Polymer electrolytes have the following defects: poor temperature resistance, pressure resistance, and deformation resistance; poor conductivity; poor compatibility between solid electrolytes and electrodes; and interface problems with other solid electrolytes. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address one of the aforementioned problems, this application provides a polymer solid-state battery electrolyte, which comprises one or more groups, including alcohol groups, hydroxyl groups, amine groups, halogen groups, sulfonic acid groups, acyl groups, rare hydrocarbon materials, or carboxyl groups.

[0005] Preferably, in the polymer solid-state battery electrolyte, the rare hydrocarbon material, containing amine groups, halogenated groups, and carboxyl groups comprises a composition with the chemical formula (C... 13 H 14 Substances containing F3NO2)n or substances containing the following molecular structural formula I,

[0006]

[0007] Preferably, containing (C) 13 H14 The preparation method of substance F3NO2)n involves dissolving 1-(3,4-difluorophenyl)prop-2-en-1-amine and (E)-4-fluorobut-2-enoic acid in an aqueous solution at a molar ratio of 1:1, adding ammonium persulfate and ammonium bisulfite, heating the reaction to form a viscous polymer, and drying the polymer to make powder, which is designated as powder A.

[0008] This application also provides a method for preparing a polymer solid-state battery electrolyte. In the first step, at least a certain amount of the powder A is prepared into a viscosity solution with deionized water, lithium carbonate is added, and the solution is heated until the pH no longer decreases. In the second step, a polymer solid-state battery electrolyte is formed by coating and drying, denoted as membrane a.

[0009] Furthermore, a method for preparing a polymer solid-state battery electrolyte also includes a process of adding a compound solid-state electrolyte before the second step.

[0010] Furthermore, the method for preparing a polymer solid-state battery electrolyte further includes a process of combining membrane a with the surface of the compound solid-state electrolyte after the second step.

[0011] Furthermore, in the method for preparing a polymer solid-state battery electrolyte, the compound solid-state electrolyte is at least Li7La3Zr2O. 12 LiNi 0.8 Co 0.1 Mn 0.1 O2, Li 6.4 Na 0.08 K 0.4 Al 0.04 La3Zr 1.95 Si 0.05 O 11.99 F 0.02 One or more of them, preferably, the Li 6.4 Na 0.08 K 0.4 Al 0.04 La3Zr 1.95 Si 0.05 O 11.99 F 0.02 The lithium battery selected in the preparation includes Li2CO3 generated in the lithium cobalt nickel recovery and extraction method, and the lithium carbonate in the polymer solid-state battery electrolyte preferably includes lithium carbonate prepared in the lithium cobalt nickel recovery and extraction method.

[0012] This application also provides a method of using a polymer solid-state battery electrolyte membrane, in which the membrane a is used in combination with the battery electrode, which is beneficial to the compatibility of the solid electrolyte and the electrode and / or beneficial to the interfacial contact performance between the electrode and the electrolyte.

[0013] This application also provides a method for testing the compatibility and / or interfacial contact of a polymer solid-state battery electrolyte membrane with electrodes. The method involves firstly pressing a stainless steel column with a circular contact surface diameter horizontally onto at least membrane a, a control membrane, a compound solid-state electrolyte sheet, and a control solid-state electrolyte sheet, and testing the depth to which the stainless steel column is pressed into the membranes and sheets. Secondly, the conductivity values ​​of membrane a, the control membrane, the compound solid-state electrolyte sheet, and the control solid-state electrolyte sheet are tested sequentially. The effectiveness of improving the compatibility between the solid-state electrolyte and electrodes is analyzed by combining the conductivity values ​​with the depth of the stainless steel column's penetration into the membranes and sheets.

[0014] Furthermore, when the conductivity values ​​of membrane a, the control membrane, and the compound solid electrolyte sheet are within a certain order of magnitude, a larger interfacial contact depth or area results in lower impedance, and a larger interfacial contact depth or area leads to better compatibility between the solid electrolyte and the electrode.

[0015] This application also provides a polymer solid-state battery, comprising any of the polymer solid-state battery electrolyte compositions described above.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this application are that the polymer solid-state battery electrolyte of this application has at least one of the following effects.

Furthermore, the average coulombic efficiency of the polymer electrolyte battery is higher than 99%, indicating high cycle stability.

[0019] 2. The polymer solid-state battery electrolyte membrane a has good ionic conductivity. Specifically, the material containing structural formula I has amino groups, fluoride ions, carboxyl hydroxyl groups, polyfluoride ions and other groups arranged in sequence around it, which promotes the exchange and transport of lithium ions. The high conductivity of membrane a reflects the good ion diffusion and migration ability of membrane a. Furthermore, the presence of material containing structural formula I gives membrane a high electrochemical window.

[0027] The method for recovering and extracting lithium, cobalt, and nickel from lithium batteries includes the following steps: Step 1: Recovery and extraction of non-lithium valuable metals: In 100ml of acid solution, add 3-10% lithium-containing solid powder raw material (preferably waste batteries containing lithium, nickel, and cobalt). Adjust the pH to below 5 and stir at room temperature until the content of nickel, cobalt, and manganese ions in the solution no longer increases. Then, add 1-3 moles of ammonia and ammonium ions (ammonium chloride is preferred, with a molar ratio of ammonia to ammonium chloride of 2:1). The molar ratio of ammonia to ammonium ions is 1:1-3. Control the pH at 8-9 and stir at 30-70℃ for 10-120 minutes. After filtration, collect the precipitate containing high-valence heavy metal ions. Then, add 0.1-0.3g of sodium hydroxide to the filtrate and filter to separate and collect the cobalt-containing precipitate. Next, add 0.1-0.3g of sodium hydroxide to the filtrate and filter to separate and collect the nickel-containing precipitate. Slowly add phosphoric acid to the filtrate, controlling the pH to 6-8, and filter to separate the ferric phosphate precipitate. Use at least two identical cuvettes (preferably 10mm) to take filtrate samples, designating them as test sample cuvettes and control sample cuvettes respectively. Add cobalt recovery control agent (0.005-0.02g) in parallel to both cuvettes. A solution of 0.02% cobalt recovery control agent (preferably added in 0.1-0.5 ml) is prepared. The pH of the liquid in the test sample cuvette is controlled to not exceed 10. The reaction is allowed to proceed for 30 minutes, and the absorbance is measured at 520 μm using a spectrophotometer. Similarly, the pH of the liquid in the control sample cuvette is controlled to not exceed 3. The reaction is allowed to proceed for 30 minutes, and the absorbance is measured at 520 μm using a spectrophotometer. When the difference between the absorbance of the test sample and the control sample is less than 0.25, it indicates that the cobalt content in the filtrate is less than 0.1%. Then, the lithium recovery step is performed. If the difference between the absorbance of the test sample and the absorbance of the control sample is greater than 0.25, the steps before taking the filtrate sample need to be repeated until the difference between the absorbance of the test sample and the absorbance of the control sample in the filtrate is less than 0.25 (in the above test, the same test results were obtained by replacing the cobalt recovery control agent with 5-Cl-PADAB at 1.25 times the cobalt recovery control dose. Therefore, in the non-lithium valuable metal recovery and extraction step, the cobalt recovery control agent can be replaced by 5-Cl-PADAB). The method of this application recovers cobalt and nickel sequentially and controls the cobalt recovery to a filtrate content of less than 0.1%.

[0028] The second step is the lithium recovery step. In the filtrate after the first step of valuable metal recovery and extraction, 0.02-2% carbonic acid is added, heated and stirred until precipitation occurs, and the filtrate is filtered to separate the remaining manganese. Then, at least 0.02% carbonic acid is added to the filtrate to completely precipitate the lithium, and the filtrate is dried to obtain the finished lithium carbonate product.

[0029] The content analysis of the lithium carbonate obtained in the second step showed that its calcium content was less than 0.02% by mass, the heavy metal content (calculated as lead) was less than 0.001% by mass, and other impurities were not lower than those of analytically pure lithium carbonate. Therefore, the lithium carbonate prepared in this application is beneficial for use as a raw material for the preparation of lithium batteries or solid-state lithium batteries. Preferably, the lithium carbonate prepared above is used as a raw material for the preparation of polymer solid-state battery electrolytes or solid-state electrolytes of substance or compound of structural formula I.

[0030] Furthermore, this method also includes a third step: the separation and recycling of the cobalt recovery control agent. This involves repeatedly collecting the sample solution containing the cobalt recovery control agent after the first step (i.e., collecting the liquid containing the cobalt recovery control agent in a cuvette). Preferably, at least 3 kg of the sample solution is collected during industrial production. The sample solution is filtered using (3-micron) filter paper to separate the cobalt recovery control agent after the reaction. The separated cobalt recovery control agent is then repeatedly rinsed with an acid solution with a pH not exceeding 3. Simultaneously, the cobalt content in the rinsing solution is tested using a spectrophotometer. If the test results show the presence of cobalt ions, rinsing and testing continue until the cobalt ion content in the rinsing solution no longer increases. The rinsed cobalt recovery control agent is then dried, granulated, and reused. (The cobalt ion content in the solution after ignition of the cobalt recovery control agent is then measured using atomic absorption spectrometry, indicating that the cobalt recovery control agent can be regenerated with an acid solution with a pH not exceeding 3 after absorbing cobalt ions.) This method is beneficial for resource recovery and reducing environmental pollution. In the third step, 5-Cl-PADAB cannot be used to replace the cobalt recovery control agent. Furthermore, the acid solution used to immerse the lithium-containing solid raw material in the first step of this invention can be the leaching solution after rinsing. More preferably, the lithium-containing solid raw material and the acid solution react in a countercurrent manner to achieve countercurrent leaching of metals from the lithium solid raw material. The method of this invention is beneficial for the environmentally friendly recycling of valuable metals from waste batteries. The recycling process has low energy consumption, requires small amounts of acid, is highly efficient and fast, the recycling method is easy to master, and the impurities in the recycled product are stably controlled, which is beneficial for use as a raw material in battery manufacturing. The recycling process is environmentally friendly and efficient. The hydrochloric acid involved in the above steps can also be the recycled hydrochloric acid involved in this application. The pH of the raw material hydrochloric acid involved in this application cannot exceed 1.8.

[0031] The following describes the process of treating or recovering hydrochloric acid from the gas generated in the acid produced in this application, including but not limited to the following scheme: The waste gas contains a small amount of partially absorbed HCl waste gas. This waste gas is collected and sucked into a storage tank. If the waste gas does not meet the emission standards, when treating the waste gas that does not meet the emission requirements, since the treatment of hydrochloric acid waste gas is water absorption and alkali absorption, generally when treating hydrochloric acid waste gas with a high concentration, water is absorbed into hydrochloric acid. The hydrochloric acid recovered from this waste gas can be reused. The reused hydrochloric acid is called recovered hydrochloric acid. If an unexpected situation occurs and it cannot be reused, then in order to ensure that the emission standards are met, alkali is added for absorption. The water or alkali absorbed above is the absorption liquid.

[0032] The absorption process can be handled using jet spraying equipment, a device that utilizes the energy of a high-speed jet stream to transport waste gas and absorb liquid. In jet spraying equipment, high-pressure liquid converts liquid energy into kinetic energy through nozzles, thereby transporting the gas-liquid mixture to the next treatment device or system. During the treatment process, waste gas first enters the jet spraying equipment through one or more nozzles. At the nozzles, high-pressure liquid mixes with the waste gas. The high-pressure liquid contains water to absorb the liquid, and hydrogen chloride in the waste gas readily combines with the absorbent liquid to form hydrochloric acid. The high-speed flow energy of the liquid absorbs harmful substances in the waste gas. The gas-liquid mixture then enters a diffuser, where kinetic energy is converted into pressure energy, achieving further treatment of the waste gas. After jet treatment, the HCl content in the waste gas can be recycled or reduced to meet emission standards.

[0033] This application also provides a method for preparing a cobalt recovery control agent.

[0034] 0.5 mol of 5-Cl-PADAB was added to a three-necked flask containing 50 ml of methanol solution, followed by 0.8 mol of (1-chlorovinyl)cyclopropane. The mixture was stirred at 0–25 °C for 3 h, kept at 30 °C for 3 h, and then allowed to stand at 35 °C with frequent stirring for 12 h. After heating and filtration to separate the methanol-containing solution, C was obtained. 16 H 16 ClN5, C 16 H 16 ClN5 was added to methanol to prepare a 30% solution. Then, 0.05% azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) was added, and the mixture was heated under nitrogen gas until it became viscous. After testing, the molecular weight was determined to be not less than 1 million. Granulation and drying were then performed, followed by infrared spectroscopy testing. The cobalt recovery control agent test results are as follows: Figure 1 ,Depend on Figure 1As can be seen from the above, the characteristic absorption of chlorine-containing groups is at 600-700 cm⁻¹ and 1000-1300 cm⁻¹, azobenzene at 1570-1550 cm⁻¹ and 323 cm⁻¹, the absorption peak of pyridine is located at 1580 cm⁻¹, and no large olefin absorption waves are observed at 2930 cm⁻¹ and 2850 cm⁻¹, indicating that the double chemical bond is open. The absorption wavelengths of diamines are at 3500-3150 cm⁻¹ and 1350-1100 cm⁻¹, and cyclopropane in the infrared is at 3310-3000 cm⁻¹. From the above analysis, it can be concluded that the formation of molecules with the molecular formula [C 16 H 16 ClN5]n or substances containing the following structural formula II,

[0035]

[0036] Use [C] 16 H 16 ClN5]n replaces 5-Cl-PADAB in the cobalt reagent spectrophotometric method in GB / T 4325.8-2013 for testing alloy steel containing 0.05% cobalt. 16 H 16 The same effect was achieved when the amount of ClN5]n was 80% of that of 5-Cl-PADAB, with a repeatability limit of 0.0007%. Furthermore, the analytical task was performed at least due to the presence of diamine and cyclopropane structures, using the [C]n described in this application. 16 H 16 The ClN5]n test for 0.05% cobalt alloy steel achieves repeatability of test results in the shortest time compared to the 5-Cl-PADAB test under the same conditions. Furthermore, tests using other cobalt-containing liquids also show that [C]n is applicable. 16 H 16 ClN5]n replaces 5-Cl-PADAB, but uses [C]n from this application. 16 H 16 ClN5]n was prepared as an aqueous solution of less than 30% by mass and filtered through filter paper with a pore size of less than 5 micrometers. All [C]n added 16 H 16 ClN5]n is retained on the filter paper, while under the same conditions, the 5-Cl-PADAB can all pass through filter paper with a pore size of less than 5 micrometers.

[0037] The following describes a polymer solid-state battery electrolyte of this application, wherein the polymer solid-state battery electrolyte comprises one or more groups, including alcohol groups, hydroxyl groups, amine groups, halogen groups, sulfonic acid groups, acyl groups, rare hydrocarbon materials, or carboxyl groups.

The lithium carbonate is preferably lithium carbonate prepared in the lithium cobalt nickel recovery and extraction method in lithium batteries. In addition, the above 1-(3,4-difluorophenyl)prop-2-en-1-amine can be replaced by 2,2,2-trifluoroethyl acrylate, and the (E)-4-fluorobut-2-enoic acid can also be replaced by (E)-4,4,4-trifluorobut-2-enoic acid.

The gel was then coated onto a plate and dried. The coating thickness was not more than 1.3 mm, preferably 1 mm. The coating was then cut into 12 mm round pieces, denoted as film b. Film b simultaneously achieved the branched network structure containing Li. 6.4 Na 0.08 K 0.4 Al 0.04 La3Zr 1.95 Si 0.05 O 11.99 F 0.02 Compound powder B and polymer solid-state battery electrolyte powder A are matched and composited. Membrane b is another matched composite in the above combination, and membrane b is also a composite solid electrolyte.

[0054] The following are the parameter performance tests conducted on compound solid electrolyte powder B and composite solid electrolyte membrane b. Figure 3 Electron micrographs of compound solid electrolyte powder B and composite solid electrolyte membrane b. Figure 3 Image (B) is an electron micrograph of solid electrolyte powder B. Figure 3In (B), a branched mesh-like pattern can be seen (the arrow indicates the presence of a mesh and short line imprints). Figure 3 Image (b) is an electron microscope image of the composite solid electrolyte membrane. In image (b), we can see that the fragments, which resemble a branched network, are covered with intersecting polymer lines. This indicates that the combination of polymer and compound (the circle indicates the micron-sized shadow of the polymer electron microscope image / the arrow indicates the micron-sized shadow of the branched network fragments) is a polymer solid-state battery electrolyte part. The compound is shaped into a branched network and then matched with the polymer solid-state battery electrolyte.

[0055] Elemental analysis of powder B material was performed using ICP combined with XPS, and the concentration data of each element were processed by software to obtain the percentage of each element as shown in Table 1 below.

[0058] Figure 4 The image shows the XRD pattern of compound solid electrolyte powder B. Figure 4 In the middle, powder B and Li7La3Zr2O 12 The standard card (PDF#40-0894 or PDF#45-0109) is a perfect match. Further analysis suggests the following: potassium-containing cubic crystals are found at approximately 19°, 31°, and 38° of 2θ; sodium-containing cubic crystals are found at approximately 33.48° and 43.29° of 2θ; aluminum-containing cubic crystals are found at 38.4° and 44.5° of 2θ; silicon-containing crystals are found at 21° and 27.5° of 2θ; and fluorine-containing crystals are found at approximately 10.9°, 18.8°, and 24.9° of 2θ. Combined with ICP elemental analysis of powder B, powder B is considered to be modified and doped with Na, K, Al, Si, O, and F, resulting in Li7La3Zr2O. 12 The complex compound or electrolyte formed by crystal formation is denoted as Li. 6.4 Na 0.08 K 0.4 Al 0.04 La3Zr 1.95 Si 0.05 O 11.99 F 0.02 compound.

[0059] Furthermore, this test also provides a method for preparing a film by forming electrolyte discs for relevant performance testing. Powder B is selected as the implementation method: 0.1g of powder B (pre-used powder) is weighed and placed in a stainless steel mold (12mm in diameter), and pressed for 3 minutes under a pressure of 10-200MPa, with a thickness not exceeding 1cm or mm, forming a pre-pressed disc, which is denoted as disc b. If the measurement meets the requirements, it indicates that the compound solid electrolyte disc b is easy to prepare a suitable film. After surface treatment, it is placed in a vacuum drying oven for storage.

[0060] Li7La3Zr2O purchased from the current market 12 Alternatively, LLZO powder (referred to as control powder) can be used to prepare round discs using the above preparation steps, which are referred to as control discs.

[0061] Furthermore, the combination or the matching composite in the combination can also press the membrane a onto both sides of the disc b to form a membrane ab, or press the membrane a onto both sides of a contrast disc to form a contrast membrane ab. This combination also belongs to the process of combining membrane a with the surface of the compound solid electrolyte.

[0062] The above membranes a, b, control membrane, disc b, control disc, membrane ab, and control membrane ab were placed flat between two stainless steel sheets with a diameter of 12 mm to form a stainless steel / electrolyte / stainless steel battery. Chemical testing was conducted using an analyzer and chemical workstation with AC impedance spectroscopy to test parameters such as the ionic conductivity and electrochemical window of the electrolyte (4.43). The battery temperature was controlled at room temperature or stabilized using a constant temperature oven. The test results are shown in Table 2 below.

[0065]

[0066] Impedance spectroscopy tests were performed on disc b, a control disc made from compound solid electrolyte powder B, at room temperature. Figure 5 Impedance spectroscopy results of disc b (prepared from compound solid electrolyte powder B) and a control disc at room temperature are shown in the figure. Figure 5 As shown, compared to the control disc, the compound solid electrolyte disc b has higher conductivity. Furthermore, the small arcs appearing on the compound solid electrolyte disc b reflect the presence of Li... 6.4 Na 0.08 K 0.4 Al 0.04 La3Zr 1.95 Si 0.05 O 11.99 F 0.02 The compound material has good ion diffusion and migration capabilities, and at least the modification and doping of Na, K, Al, Si, O and F have certain beneficial effects on the material.

[0067] As shown in Table 2, membrane a has good ionic conductivity, indicating that the amino, fluoride, carboxyl, hydroxyl, and polyfluoride groups arranged sequentially around the material containing structural formula I promote the exchange and transport of lithium ions. The high conductivity of membrane a reflects its good ion diffusion and migration capabilities, and the presence of structural formula I gives membrane a high electrochemical window.

[0068] Based on the above performance test results, the analysis shows that the combination includes the matching and composite of compound and polymer solid-state battery electrolyte, and the matching and composite of polymer solid-state battery electrolyte after the compound is branched into a network shape. Specifically, the matching and composite includes the branched network containing Li 6.4 Na 0.08 K 0.4 Al 0.04 La3Zr 1.95 Si 0.05 O 11.99 F 0.02 Compound powder and polymer solid-state battery electrolyte powder are matched and composited to form a film, that is, for Li-containing... 6.4 Na 0.08 K 0.4 Al 0.04 La3Zr 1.95 Si 0.05 O 11.99 F 0.02 The matching and composite effect and principle analysis of compound powder and polymer solid-state battery electrolyte powder containing material of structural formula I are as follows:

[0069] Membrane b is composed of Li 6.4 Na 0.08 K 0.4 Al 0.04 La3Zr 1.95 Si 0.05 O 11.99 F 0.02 The conductivity of the compound powder and the polymer solid-state battery electrolyte powder containing the substance of structural formula I, when combined, is higher than the sum of the conductivity of membrane a and wafer b, indicating that the Li-containing... 6.4 Na 0.08 K 0.4 Al 0.04 La3Zr 1.95 Si 0.05 O 11.99 F 0.02 The compound powder and the polymer solid-state battery electrolyte powder containing the substance of structural formula I exhibit a synergistic gain effect in conductivity, and this effect is significantly better than that of the comparative film. The comparative film uses a matched composite of film a and a comparative disc, and the result is that the comparative film does not show a conductivity higher than the sum of the two, and no synergistic gain effect is observed. Combined with electron microscopy... Figure 3It is known that the polymer solid-state battery electrolyte is made by shaping a branched network of compounds and then matching and compositing them. Analysis suggests that the polymer solid-state battery electrolyte contains substances with structural formula I, which will incorporate Li... 6.4 Na 0.08 K 0.4 Al 0.04 La3Zr 1.95 Si 0.05 O 11.99 F 0.02 When a compound is branched into a network structure similar to that of its structural formula I, and then combined with a polymer solid-state battery electrolyte containing structural formula I, the two are at least similar in spatial structure. Furthermore, analysis suggests that the substances of structural formula I possess amine groups, fluoride ions, carboxyl groups, etc., around their spatial periphery, which are beneficial to Li. 6.4 Na 0.08 K 0.4 Al 0.0 4La3Zr 1.95 Si 0.05 O 11.99 F 0.02 The spatial structure of the compound and the interaction or combination of its lithium make it easier for the two to be matched into a composite combination, thus resulting in a synergistic gain effect in the conductivity results.

[0070] The following is an analysis of the beneficial effects of membrane a in improving the interface between the electrode and the solid electrolyte, or the combination of membrane a and the compound solid electrolyte interface:

[0071] A 50g stainless steel cylinder with a contact surface diameter of 5mm was horizontally pressed sequentially onto membrane a, membrane b, the control membrane, disc b, and the control disc. The depths to which the stainless steel cylinder penetrated and integrated into the membranes and discs were measured to be 0.6mm, 0.3mm, 0.2mm, 0.1mm, and 0.03mm, respectively. This indicates that the interfacial integration or containment of the membranes and discs decreases sequentially, with all membranes exhibiting better integration or containment than the disc. Furthermore, the conductivity of all membranes was 10-1. Within the range of -4, and considering the conductivity test results in Table 1, it can be seen that the interfacial contact depth or area of ​​the comparative membrane, membrane b, and membrane a increases sequentially, while the impedance decreases. Analysis suggests that the compatibility between the solid electrolyte and electrode of the comparative membrane, membrane b, and membrane a is better than that of the disc. The compound solid electrolyte disc b has a soft branched network structure. The 0.1 mm indentation depth of disc b is attributed to the elastic contraction of its branched network structure. Therefore, membranes a, b, and the comparative membrane can improve the compatibility between the solid electrolyte and the electrode and alleviate interfacial contact problems. Membranes a and b, and the comparative membrane a, are combinations of membrane a and the surface of the compound solid electrolyte, respectively. The conductivity test results combined with electron microscopy... Figure 3The surface structure shows that membrane a improves the contact or compatibility between the electrode and the solid electrolyte. The above process also includes a method for testing the compatibility and / or interface contact performance of the electrolyte and the electrode using membrane a. The membrane testing method for the compatibility and / or interface contact of the electrolyte and the electrode in this application is efficient, fast, and easy to operate. It can also be used in solid-state battery assembly. The solid-state battery in this application includes at least one combination of polymer solid-state battery electrolyte or solid-state battery compound solid-state electrolyte. For example, membrane a and the electrode are used to form a polymer solid-state battery, or membrane a, disc b and the electrode are used to form a composite or compound solid-state battery, or membrane b and the electrode are used to form a compound or composite solid-state battery.

[0072] Chemical testing was conducted on stainless steel / electrolyte / stainless steel batteries constructed using membrane a, membrane b, control membrane, disc b, membrane ab, and control membrane ab as electrolytes. After 400 cycles, the batteries still exhibited a discharge capacity of 130 mAh g⁻¹, and the average coulombic efficiency was higher than 99%. The aforementioned membranes and discs demonstrated high cycle stability.

[0073] Li 6.4 Na 0.08 K 0.4 Al 0.04 La3Zr 1.95 Si 0.05 O 11.99 F 0.02 The presence of silicon in the compound is beneficial for structural stability and long-term cycling; F is beneficial for increased surface properties and ionic activity, which is beneficial for electrical conductivity; and the combination of Na, K, Al, and Si, including their large and small radii, is beneficial for lithium-ion migration, causing the compound to exhibit higher electrical conductivity than the test values ​​mentioned above.
