Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0034] According to a first aspect of the present application, the present application aims to provide a lithium ion battery, comprising a positive electrode sheet, a composite diaphragm, a negative electrode sheet, and an electrolyte, the composite diaphragm comprising a base film and a swelling layer, the swelling layer being arranged on at least one surface of the base film, the swelling rate of the swelling layer being Y;

[0035] The electrolyte comprises a first electrolyte for primary electrolyte injection and a second electrolyte for secondary electrolyte injection, the injection amount of the primary electrolyte injection being X1, the injection amount of the secondary electrolyte injection being X2, and the total injection amount of the electrolyte being X;

[0036] wherein X1, X2, and Y satisfy the relationship: X2≤X1; 0.7Y≤10(X1+X2)-10.5≤1.5Y.

[0037] When the lithium ion battery is in a charge-discharge cycle, the electrolyte enters and exits the pores of the electrode sheet, and the electrolyte outside the battery cell also changes, and the thickness of the swelling layer on the diaphragm also changes, so that the thickness change of the electrode sheet is adapted to the elongation rate of the copper foil. The swelling rate of the diaphragm, the injection amount of the primary electrolyte injection, and the injection amount of the secondary electrolyte injection satisfy the relationship: X2≤X1; 0.7Y≤10(X1+X2)-10.5≤1.5Y, so as to inhibit the deformation of the electrode sheet and solve the problem of broken pieces of the lithium ion battery in the charge-discharge cycle. The injection amount X1 of the primary electrolyte injection is to ensure that the amount of electrolyte is sufficient during formation, and the injection amount X2 of the secondary electrolyte injection is to adjust the formula of the overall battery cell electrolyte solvent and additives.

[0038] When the lithium ion battery is charged, the thickness of the pole piece increases, the porosity increases, the electrolyte enters the pores of the pole piece, the free electrolyte outside the battery decreases, the thickness of the swelling layer of the diaphragm decreases, and the overall thickness of the battery does not change; when the lithium ion battery is discharged, the thickness of the pole piece decreases, the porosity decreases, the electrolyte flows out of the interstice of the pole piece, the free electrolyte outside the battery increases, the thickness of the swelling layer of the diaphragm increases, and the overall thickness of the battery does not change.

[0072] In order to make the technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the present application and its beneficial effects will be described in further detail below with reference to specific embodiments, but the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto.

[0073] Example 1

[0074] (1) Preparation of the Separator

[0075] The slurry is sprayed on the base film by rotary spraying, and the slurry droplets are sprayed on the surface of the diaphragm to form a point coating layer by the centrifugal force of the rotating disc.

[0081] The volume content of the first injection is 60% of the total injection volume content, and the volume content of the second injection is 60% of the total injection volume content.

[0082] (3) Preparation of battery

[0083] The positive electrode sheet, the negative electrode sheet and the separator are wound to form an electric core, the positive and negative electrode tabs are led out from the opposite ends of the electric core, and the adhesive tape is wound on the outside to fix the electric core. After the negative electrode end cover, the gasket, the sealing ring, the positive electrode end cover and the pole are mechanically punched and formed in a concentric stack, the electrolyte prepared above is injected into the dried battery, and after packaging, standing, primary formation, secondary injection, secondary formation, shaping and distribution, a lithium ion battery is finally obtained.

[0084] Comparative Example 1

[0085] Different from example 1, the separator in the comparative example does not contain a swelling layer.

[0086] The rest is the same as example 1, which will not be repeated here.

[0087] Among them, the preparation method of examples 2-7 and comparative examples 2-8 is the same as that of example 1, except that the thickness of the swelling layer, the porosity, the composition of the first additive and the second additive, the injection amount and the parameters, see the following table 1-2.

[0088] Table 1

[0089]

[0090]

[0091] Table 2

[0092]

[0093]

[0094] The lithium ion batteries prepared in examples and comparative examples were respectively tested for the following performance tests:

[0095] (1) Capacity retention rate test:

[0096] The initial capacity detection was full charged at 0.5C and discharged at 0.2C. The battery / cell was charged at 5C, rested for 5min, then discharged at 1C, rested for 5min. This was one cycle. After every 50 cycles, the capacity was detected by full charging at 0.5C and discharging at 0.2C.

[0097] (2) Battery roll core thickness change test:

[0098] The battery outer package was disassembled, and then the roll core thickness or diameter was tested by a constant pressure caliper (300g)

[0099] The results of the above performance tests are shown in tables 3 and 4.

[0100] Table 3

[0101]

[0102]

[0103] Table 4

[0104] SOC Example 1 cell diameter (mm) Comparative Example 1 cell diameter (mm) 0% 10.35 10.14 25% 10.3 10.21 50% 10.37 10.28 75% 10.36 10.3 100% 10.32 10.35

[0105] As can be seen from the comparison of the experimental data of examples 1-7 and comparative examples 1-9 in table 3-4, when the separator is provided with a swelling layer and the thickness and porosity of the swelling layer are within the set range, the deformation of the electrode sheet can be inhibited, and the problem of the battery breaking during the charge-discharge cycle can be effectively solved. When the value of the relationship exceeds the preset range, the electrolyte will overflow, and when the value of the relationship is less than the preset range, the electrolyte will be insufficient, the wetting effect will be poor, and lithium precipitation will occur in the electrode sheet.

[0106] As can be seen from the comparison of the experimental data of examples 1 and comparative example 1 in table 4, compared with the conventional separator without a swelling layer, the separator provided in the application can allow the electrolyte to enter and exit the pores of the electrode sheet during the charge-discharge cycle, the electrolyte outside the battery also changes, and the thickness of the swelling layer on the separator also changes, so that the diameter of the battery in example 1 changes less than that of the battery in comparative example 1 after charge-discharge, and the problem of the battery breaking during the charge-discharge cycle can be effectively solved.

[0107] As can be seen from the comparison of the experimental results of examples 2-3 and comparative examples 2-4, when the amount of the first injection and the amount of the second injection exceed the limited range, the electrode sheet will be slightly purple; when no second injection is performed, lithium precipitation will occur in the electrode sheet due to insufficient electrolyte.

[0108] As can be seen from the comparison of the experimental results of example 1 and comparative examples 4, 7-8, when the first additive is added with FEC, VC, PS and nitrile compounds at the same time, the battery has excellent high-temperature performance.
