Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of lithium ion batteries, and in particular to an electrolyte, a preparation method thereof, a liquid injection method and a lithium ion battery. Background Art
[0002] The current market has increasingly higher requirements for the cycle performance of secondary batteries, requiring high energy density, ultra-long service life, and slow decay in the early stage. When lithium iron phosphate is used as the positive electrode material, its energy density is relatively low due to its low specific capacity and the reaction loss of lithium during the first charging process. In addition, the cycle trend is often that the capacity loss is fast at first and then slow, which does not meet the market's requirement for slow decay in the early stage of the cycle. Positive electrode lithium replenishment technology is used in secondary batteries. Currently, positive electrode lithium replenishment in lithium iron phosphate systems mostly uses electrochemical methods. Lithium-rich materials are added to the positive electrode material. During the charging process, the lithium-rich materials complete the delithiation and replenish lithium to the positive electrode, thereby increasing the battery energy density and improving the cycle life.
[0003] The general formula of lithium-rich materials is Li x M y O z (M is a transition metal element) is added to the positive electrode. During the battery formation stage, the charging voltage must be set to a higher voltage of 3.7V or above under high temperature conditions to complete the release of lithium ions and a certain amount of oxygen. At this time, the battery capacity and energy density are significantly improved. To improve the impact of oxygen released during lithium replenishment on battery performance, electrolyte additives containing sulfite and sulfonate are often used to form a protective film on the positive electrode, and to form a cross-linked negative electrode SEI to reduce damage from side reactions.
[0004] Existing electrolytes protect the negative electrode and the interface where the positive electrode reacts with the electrolyte. However, under high temperature and high voltage, the damage caused by oxygen free radicals released when lithium-rich materials decompose is still serious: oxidizing organic solvents to produce H2O, HF and other substances that are harmful to battery performance, resulting in more subsequent high-temperature side reactions in the battery, resulting in gas production and black spots on the negative electrode interface, thereby affecting the storage life and cycle life of the battery.
[0005] Therefore, how to provide an electrolyte that can improve the adverse problems of high-temperature gas production and black spots on the negative electrode interface during the use of lithium-rich material lithium supplements is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently in this field.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0036] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the embodiments of the present invention. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments are merely to help understand the present invention and should not be regarded as specific limitations of the present invention. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention. The process parameters for which specific conditions are not specified in the following examples are generally in accordance with conventional conditions.
[0037] The endpoints of the ranges and any values disclosed herein are not limited to the precise ranges or values, and these ranges or values should be understood to include values close to these ranges or values. For numerical ranges, the endpoints of each range, the endpoints of each range and individual point values, and the individual point values can be combined with each other to form one or more new numerical ranges, and these numerical ranges should be considered to be specifically disclosed in the present invention.
[0038] In a first aspect, the present invention provides an electrolyte, comprising a first electrolyte for a first injection and a second electrolyte for a second injection, wherein the first electrolyte comprises a first solvent, a first lithium salt and a first additive, and the second electrolyte comprises a second solvent, a second lithium salt and a second additive, wherein the mass percentage of the second electrolyte in the electrolyte is 5% to 20%, for example, it can be 5%, 10%, 15% or 20%, the first additive comprises dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and vinylene carbonate (VC), and the second additive comprises triphenyl phosphite (Tppi) and vinylene carbonate (VC).
[0039] The electron donor groups in dimethyl sulfide can combine with the oxygen free radicals produced by the decomposition of the lithium supplement agent and generate a structurally stable positive electrode S-containing solid electrolyte membrane, which inactivates the oxygen free radicals at the beginning of their generation and prevents them from escaping, thereby reducing the negative effects caused by the highly oxidizing oxygen.
[0040] By utilizing the unsaturated functional groups in triphenyl phosphite (Tppi) to combine with oxygen free radicals, it is possible to annihilate some of the oxidizing components produced by the undecomposed lithium-supplementing additives, and capture the oxygen that escapes during the formation process and remains in the battery, and convert itself into a more pressure-resistant phosphate ester. This can not only reduce the impact of oxygen on the graphite negative electrode, but also increase the high-voltage stability of the battery positive electrode, thereby improving the high-voltage performance of the battery.
[0041] By including vinylene carbonate (VC), VC can better form a SEI film in a lithium iron phosphate battery system, thereby isolating the contact between the electrolyte and the active material and reducing the decomposition of the electrolyte.
[0042] The present invention can provide a possible electrolyte solution for the use of lithium replenishment systems, improving the adverse problems of high-temperature gas production, interface black spots, and electrode peeling during the use of current lithium replenishers, thereby improving the cycle life and calendar storage life of the battery.
[0043] The electrolyte provided by the present invention includes dimethyl sulfide as the first additive and triphenyl phosphite as the second additive, thereby improving the undesirable problems of high-temperature gas production, black spots on the negative electrode interface, and electrode film peeling (powder loss) during the use of lithium-rich material lithium supplement agents, thereby improving the cycle life and calendar storage life of lithium-ion batteries.
[0044] In the above electrolyte, as an optional embodiment, the mass ratio of the first electrolyte to the second electrolyte is (80-95):(5-20), for example, it can be 80:20, 85:15, 90:10 or 95:5.

[0047] In the above electrolyte, as an optional embodiment, the first solvent includes dimethyl carbonate (DMC), ethyl methyl carbonate (EMC) and ethylene carbonate (EC), and the mass ratio of the DMC, EMC and EC is (2-5): (2-5): (2-5).
[0048] In the above electrolyte, as an optional embodiment, the first lithium salt includes at least one of lithium hexafluorophosphate and lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide.
[0049] In the above electrolyte, as an optional embodiment, the first lithium salt includes lithium hexafluorophosphate and lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide, and the mass ratio of the lithium hexafluorophosphate to the lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide is 10:(0.5-10), for example, it can be 10:0.5, 10:1, 10:3, 10:5, 10:7 or 10:10.
[0050] In the above-mentioned electrolyte, as an optional embodiment, based on the total mass of the first electrolyte as 100%, the mass proportion of the first solvent in the first electrolyte is 75-90% (for example, it can be 75%, 80% or 90%), the mass proportion of the first lithium salt in the first electrolyte is 7%-20% (for example, it can be 7%, 11%, 13%, 15% or 20%), and the mass proportion of the first additive in the first electrolyte is 0.3%-7% (for example, it can be 0.3%, 1%, 3%, 5% or 7%).
[0051] In the above electrolyte, as an optional embodiment, the first additive also includes at least one of methylene methanedisulfonate MMDS, lithium difluorophosphate LiPO2F2, fluoroethylene carbonate FEC, vinyl sulfate DTD, 1,3-propane sultone PS, tris(trimethylsilyl)phosphate TMSP, lithium difluorooxalatoborate LiDFOB, and difluorooxalatophosphate LiDFOP.
[0052] In the above electrolyte, as an optional embodiment, the first additive further includes fluoroethylene carbonate FEC and vinyl sulfate DTD, and the mass ratio of the fluoroethylene carbonate to the vinyl sulfate is (0.5-1.5):1.
[0053] In the above-mentioned electrolyte, as an optional embodiment, the mass percentage of dimethyl sulfide (DMS) in the first electrolyte is 0.1 to 3 wt%, for example, it can be 0.1 wt%, 0.5 wt%, 1 wt%, 1.5 wt%, 2 wt%, 2.5 wt% or 3 wt%; when the content is too high, it will cause the system impedance to be too large, affecting the kinetic performance. When the content is low, the effect is difficult to manifest.
[0054] VC has weak oxidation resistance and is easily involved in reaction decomposition under high voltage and highly oxidizing environment, resulting in more gas production, causing black spots on the battery negative electrode interface and even lithium precipitation. Therefore, in the above-mentioned electrolyte, as a preferred embodiment, the mass percentage of vinylene carbonate (VC) in the first additive in the first electrolyte is not higher than 2%. After formation and before the decomposition of the lithium supplement material, reducing the free VC in the electrolyte can reduce its negative effects after oxidation. More preferably, a 1% to 2% content has better performance.
[0055] In the above electrolyte, as an optional embodiment, the second solvent includes at least two of dimethyl carbonate (DMC), ethyl methyl carbonate (EMC), ethylene carbonate (EC), propylene carbonate, diethyl carbonate (DEC), ethyl formate (EA), and ethyl propionate (EP).
[0056] In the above electrolyte, as an optional embodiment, in the second solvent, the weight ratio between each two compounds is (2-5): (2-5), for example, it can be 3:4, 3:3 or 2:5.
[0057] In the above electrolyte, as an optional embodiment, the second solvent includes dimethyl carbonate (DMC), ethyl methyl carbonate (EMC) and ethylene carbonate (EC), and the mass ratio of the DMC, EMC and EC is (2-5): (2-5): (2-5).
[0058] In the above electrolyte, as an optional embodiment, the second lithium salt includes at least one of lithium hexafluorophosphate and lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide.
[0059] In the above electrolyte, as an optional embodiment, the second lithium salt includes lithium hexafluorophosphate and lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide, and the mass ratio of the lithium hexafluorophosphate to the lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide is 10:(0.5-10), for example, it can be 10:0.5, 10:1, 10:3, 10:5, 10:7 or 10:10.
[0060] In the above-mentioned electrolyte, as an optional embodiment, based on the total mass of the second electrolyte as 100%, the mass proportion of the second solvent in the second electrolyte is 52% to 82% (for example, it can be 52%, 54%, 58%, 60%, 70%, 80% or 82%), the mass proportion of the second lithium salt in the second electrolyte is 7%-18% (for example, it can be 7%, 11%, 13%, 15% or 18%), and the mass proportion of the second additive in the second electrolyte is 10.01% to 30.5% (for example, it can be 10.01%, 15%, 20%, 25% or 30.5%).
[0061] In the above electrolyte, as an optional embodiment, the mass percentage of vinylene carbonate in the second additive in the second electrolyte is greater than the mass percentage of vinylene carbonate in the first additive in the first electrolyte.
[0062] By making the mass percentage of vinylene carbonate in the second additive in the second electrolyte greater than the mass percentage of vinylene carbonate in the first additive in the first electrolyte, the VC content in the electrolyte can be supplemented to ensure that there is sufficient film-forming additive for repairing SEI during later cycles and storage.
[0063] In the above-mentioned electrolyte, as an optional embodiment, the mass percentage of triphenyl phosphite (Tppi) in the second electrolyte is 0.01-0.5%, for example, it can be 0.01%, 0.1%, 0.3% or 0.5%; when the content is too high, the overall impedance is too large, which has a negative impact on the first efficiency and capacity of the battery.
[0064] In the above electrolyte, as an optional embodiment, the mass percentage of vinylene carbonate (VC) in the second additive in the second electrolyte is 10% to 30%, for example, 10%, 15%, 20% or 30%. If the content of vinylene carbonate (VC) in the second electrolyte is too low, the cycle life and storage performance are poor; if the content of vinylene carbonate (VC) in the second electrolyte is too high, the impedance is high, which may lead to lithium deposition and poor performance.
[0065] In a second aspect, the present invention provides a method for preparing the electrolyte according to the first aspect, the preparation method comprising the following steps:
[0066] Weighing each component according to the designed ratio, and uniformly mixing the weighed first solvent and the first lithium salt to obtain a first primary electrolyte; adding the first additive to the first primary electrolyte, and mixing uniformly to obtain the first electrolyte;

[0155] Performance Testing
[0156] The performance of the lithium-ion batteries provided in the examples and comparative examples was tested, and the specific testing process is as follows:
[0157] Full charge: The lithium-ion batteries provided in the examples and comparative examples were first charged at 1C constant current to 3.65V at 25°C, and then charged at a constant voltage until the current reached 0.05C, to obtain fully charged batteries.
[0158] Capacity-separated full charge (charged to 100% SOC) electrode interface condition detection: The fully charged battery was disassembled under the condition of humidity <10%, and the interface condition of the battery negative electrode was observed with the naked eye. The results are shown in Table 1.
[0159] High-temperature gas production: Place the fully charged battery in water at 60°C for a water displacement test (V1). After heating the temperature to 60°C in a constant temperature box and storing for 5 days, take out the battery and place it in water at 60°C for a water displacement test (V2). The volume change is V2-V1. Record the volume change in Table 1. The high-temperature gas production can be judged by the volume change. The greater the volume change, the more gas is produced.
[0160] Storage performance: Before high-temperature storage, the fully charged battery was discharged at a constant current of 1C to 2.5V, obtaining the initial discharge capacity C1. The battery was then fully charged again, raised to 55°C in a constant temperature chamber, and stored for 7 days. The battery was then discharged, fully charged again, and then discharged at a constant current of 1C to 2.5V to obtain the current capacity C2. The capacity recovery rate was C2 / C1*100%. The results are shown in Table 1.
[0161] Table 1
[0162]
[0163] From Table 1, we can see at least the following points:
[0164] (1) Comparing Example 1 with Comparative Example 1, it can be seen that although vinyl sulfate is added to the existing electrolyte to improve the effect of oxygen released during lithium replenishment on battery performance, the damage caused by oxygen free radicals released during the decomposition of the lithium-rich material is still serious, gas production is high, and black spots appear on the negative electrode interface. The present invention improves the problems of high-temperature gas production and black spots on the negative electrode interface during the use of the lithium-rich material lithium replenisher by including dimethyl sulfide (DMS) in the first additive and triphenyl phosphite (Tppi) in the second additive, thereby improving the calendar storage life of the lithium-ion battery.
[0165] (2) Comparing Example 2 with Example 6, it can be seen that, when the total VC content in the electrolyte remains unchanged, when the mass proportion of VC in the first electrolyte exceeds 2% and the mass proportion of VC in the second electrolyte is less than 10%, the calendar storage life of the lithium-ion battery is reduced. The applicant analyzed that the reason may be that VC has weak oxidation resistance and is easy to participate in the reaction and decomposition under high voltage and high oxidizing environment, which easily leads to high gas production, resulting in black spots on the battery negative electrode interface and even lithium precipitation. After formation and before the decomposition of the lithium supplement material, reducing the free VC in the electrolyte can reduce its negative effects after oxidation, increase the content of vinylene carbonate (VC) in the second electrolyte, and ensure that there is sufficient film-forming additive for the repair of SEI during the later circulation and storage process. Similarly, by comparing Example 1 with Comparative Example 7, it can be seen that when the mass proportion of VC in the first electrolyte further increases and the mass proportion of VC in the second electrolyte further decreases, the mass proportion of VC in the first electrolyte is greater than the mass proportion in the second electrolyte, black spots appear on the negative electrode interface, more gas is produced, and the calendar storage life is further reduced.
[0166] (3) Comparison of Example 1 with Comparative Example 4 shows that after DMS is replaced with conventional DTD (vinyl sulfate), black spots appear on the negative electrode interface, more gas is produced, and the calendar storage life is significantly reduced.
[0167] (4) Comparison of Example 1 with Comparative Example 5 shows that after DMS is replaced with other sulfide compounds, lithium deposition occurs on the negative electrode sheet, more gas is produced, and the calendar storage life is significantly reduced.
[0168] (5) By comparing Example 1 with Comparative Example 6, it can be seen that when DMS (dimethyl sulfide) and Tppi (triphenyl phosphite) are sequentially exchanged in the electrolyte, that is, Tppi (triphenyl phosphite) is added to the first electrolyte used for the first injection and DMS (dimethyl sulfide) is added to the second electrolyte used for the second injection, black spots appear on the negative electrode interface, more gas is produced, and the calendar storage life is reduced.
