[0034] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects solved by the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.
[0035] An embodiment of the present invention provides a solid electrolyte, comprising an inorganic solid electrolyte layer 1 and a composite electrolyte layer 2, wherein the composite electrolyte layer 2 comprises a polymer electrolyte substrate membrane and a filler; the filler is distributed in the polymer electrolyte substrate membrane; the filler comprises one or more of an oxide solid electrolyte, a sulfide solid electrolyte, and a halide solid electrolyte; The inorganic solid electrolyte layer 1 includes one or more of an oxide solid electrolyte, a sulfide solid electrolyte, and a halide solid electrolyte.
[0036] The term "plurality" in the present application refers to two or more than two.
[0037] In the present invention, the solid electrolyte includes an inorganic solid electrolyte layer 1 and a composite electrolyte layer 2, which can form at least a double-layer solid electrolyte, and combines the flexibility of the polymer electrolyte and the high ionic conductivity of the inorganic solid electrolyte, improves the interface contact, reduces the interface impedance, and improves the overall performance of the electrolyte. The filler in the composite electrolyte layer 2 is distributed in the polymer electrolyte base membrane, has a certain flexibility and mechanical strength, can absorb and release the stress accumulation generated during the battery cycle, thereby maintaining the structural integrity and stability of the electrolyte membrane, effectively solving the problem of electrolyte membrane rupture and performance attenuation caused by stress accumulation during the battery cycle, and enhancing the cycle stability and life of the battery.
[0038] In one embodiment, the filler is uniformly distributed in the polymer electrolyte base membrane.
[0039] The filler is evenly distributed in the polymer electrolyte substrate membrane, significantly improving the ionic conductivity of the solid electrolyte. The filler forms an efficient ion conduction channel in the polymer electrolyte substrate membrane, ensuring that lithium ions can move efficiently inside the battery, thereby improving the battery's charge and discharge performance. The polymer electrolyte substrate membrane provides the necessary flexibility and mechanical strength for the solid electrolyte, allowing the electrolyte membrane to adapt to deformation and stress changes inside the battery, preventing mechanical damage to the solid electrolyte during use.
[0040] In one embodiment, the composite electrolyte layer 2 is provided with two layers, the inorganic solid electrolyte layer 1 is provided with one layer, and the inorganic solid electrolyte layer 1 is located between the two composite electrolyte layers 2. Composite electrolyte layers 2 are provided on both sides of the inorganic solid electrolyte layer 1. On the one hand, the side reaction between the negative electrode 4 and the inorganic solid electrolyte layer 1 is effectively avoided, and the chemical reaction between the electrolyte and the negative electrode material is reduced. On the other hand, the flexibility and mechanical strength of the solid electrolyte are improved.
[0041] In one embodiment, the composite electrolyte layer 2 is provided with one layer, and the inorganic solid electrolyte layer 1 is provided with one layer. When the composite electrolyte layer 2 is located between the negative electrode 4 and the inorganic solid electrolyte layer 1, the side reaction between the negative electrode 4 and the inorganic solid electrolyte layer 1 is effectively avoided, and the chemical reaction between the electrolyte and the negative electrode material is reduced. When the composite electrolyte layer 2 is located between the positive electrode 3 and the inorganic solid electrolyte layer 1, the inorganic solid electrolyte layer 1 prevents the further growth of lithium dendrites through the passivation reaction, prevents the lithium dendrites from piercing the electrolyte layer, and can effectively inhibit the growth of lithium dendrites, ensuring the safety and long-term stability of the battery.
[0042] In one embodiment, the thickness of the composite electrolyte layer 2 is 5µm to 300µm; the thickness of the inorganic solid electrolyte layer 1 is 5µm to 300µm. The thickness of the composite electrolyte layer 2 and the inorganic solid electrolyte 1 can be, for example, 5µm, 50µm, 100µm, 150µm, 200µm, 300µm. Within this thickness range, the flexibility of the composite electrolyte layer 2 and the ionic conductivity and mechanical strength of the inorganic solid electrolyte layer 1 are matched, so that the solid electrolyte has high ionic conductivity and effectively absorbs and releases the stress accumulation generated during the battery cycle.
[0043] In one embodiment, the thickness of the composite electrolyte layer 2 is 10µm to 30µm; the thickness of the inorganic solid electrolyte layer 1 is 10µm to 30µm. The thickness of the composite electrolyte layer 2 and the inorganic solid electrolyte 1 can be, for example, 10µm, 20µm, or 30µm. Within this thickness range, the solid electrolyte has high ionic conductivity and mechanical strength.
[0044] In one embodiment, the ionic conductivity of the inorganic solid electrolyte layer 1 is greater than or equal to 1 mS / cm, and may be, for example, 1 mS / cm, 1.2 mS / cm, 1.5 mS / cm, or 2 mS / cm. Higher ionic conductivity can improve the cycle performance and rate performance of the battery.

[0046] By selecting fillers within the above-mentioned particle size range, the fillers are evenly distributed in the polymer electrolyte substrate membrane, forming an efficient ion conduction channel, ensuring that lithium ions can move efficiently inside the battery, thereby improving the battery's charge and discharge performance. In addition, by selecting fillers within the above-mentioned particle size range, it is easy to regulate their distribution in the polymer electrolyte substrate membrane. Filler particles that are too small or too large affect their uniformity in the polymer electrolyte substrate membrane, thereby affecting the mechanical properties of the solid electrolyte. Among them, when the particle size of the filler is 50nm to 300nm, such as 50nm, 100nm, 150nm, 200nm, and 300nm, the effect can be further improved.
[0047] In one embodiment, the mass of the filler is 0.1% to 10% of the mass of the polymer electrolyte substrate membrane, such as 0.1%, 0.3%, 0.5%, 0.7%, 0.9%, 1.1%, 1.3%, 1.5%, 1.7%, 2%, 2.5%, 3%, 3.5%, 4%, 4.5%, 5%, 5.5%, 6%, 6.5%, 7%, 7.5%, 8%, 8.5%, 9%, 9.5% or 10%. By controlling the content of the filler in the polymer electrolyte substrate membrane, the ionic conductivity and mechanical strength of the formed composite electrolyte layer 2 are adjusted to further enhance the overall mechanical properties of the composite electrolyte layer 2, ensuring that the composite electrolyte layer 2 maintains structural integrity during multiple charge and discharge cycles. Wherein, the mass of the filler is 0.5% to 5% of the mass of the polymer electrolyte substrate membrane, such as 0.5%, 0.7%, 0.9%, 1.1%, 1.3%, 1.5%, 1.7%, 2%, 2.5%, 3%, 3.5%, 4%, 4.5%, 5%, the effect can be further improved.

Selecting these fillers can achieve higher ion conductivity.
[0056] In one embodiment, the polymer electrolyte substrate membrane includes a polymer and a lithium salt, and the molar ratio of the polymer to the lithium salt is (5:1) to (20:1). Specifically, the molar ratio of the polymer to the lithium salt includes but is not limited to 5:1, 6:1, 7:1, 8:1, 9:1, 10:1, 11:1, 12:1, 13:1, 12:1, 15:1, 16:1, 17:1, 18:1, 19:1 or 20:1.

[0060] The inorganic solid electrolyte layer 1 and the composite electrolyte layer 2 are composited to obtain the solid electrolyte.
[0061] By selecting two solvents with different solubility from the polymer as a mixed solvent, as the mixed solvent evaporates, the interfacial tension and force of the mixed solvent cause the polymer and the inorganic solid electrolyte to separate during the casting process, forming many tiny droplets or particles arranged into a porous structure.

When the composite electrolyte layer 2 is located between the negative electrode 4 and the inorganic solid electrolyte layer 1, the side reaction between the negative electrode 4 and the inorganic solid electrolyte is effectively avoided, and the chemical reaction between the electrolyte and the negative electrode 4 material is reduced.

The molar ratio of polymer to lithium salt is 10:1, and the filler is 30% of the total mass of polymer and lithium salt. Polymer polyethylene oxide, inorganic solid electrolyte Li2MnCl4 and lithium salt lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide are dispersed in acetonitrile, mixed and cast on a substrate, and then dried at 100°C and 0MPa for 12h to remove the mixed solvent to form a second composite electrolyte layer. The molar ratio of polymer to lithium salt is 10:1, and the polymer and lithium salt account for 30% of the total mass of the inorganic solid electrolyte.
[0120] The thickness of the first composite electrolyte layer and the second composite electrolyte layer are both 20 μm. The first composite electrolyte layer and the second composite electrolyte layer are composited to obtain a solid electrolyte.
[0121] Performance Testing 1. The batteries prepared in the above examples and comparative examples were subjected to the following performance tests: 1. Cycling stability at room temperature: The lithium-ion battery prepared above was charged at 1C at 25±2°C and in the range of 3.0-4.3V, left for 5 min, and then discharged at 1C and left for 30 min after discharge. The capacity retention rate after 200 cycles was recorded.
[0122] 2. Ionic conductivity measurement: The solid electrolyte is sandwiched between two pieces of stainless steel and placed in a 2032 battery case. The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy is used for measurement. The ionic conductivity is calculated using the formula: σ = L / AR, where L is the thickness of the solid electrolyte, A is the area of the stainless steel sheet at room temperature, and R is the measured impedance.
[0123] 3. High temperature cycle stability test: After being placed at 45±2℃ for 2 hours, perform standard charge and discharge cycles, cycle rate 1C, charging voltage 3.0-4.3V, and calculate the capacity retention rate of the battery after the cycle. The calculation formula is as follows: The capacity retention rate of the nth cycle (%) = (discharge capacity of the nth cycle) / (discharge capacity of the first cycle) * 100%.
[0124] The test results are shown in Table 4.
[0125] Table 4 The ionic conductivities in Table 4 are numerical values expressed in scientific notation.
[0126] From the test results of Examples 1 to 3 and Comparative Examples 2 and 4 in Table 4, it can be seen that by providing the inorganic solid electrolyte layer 1 on the side of the composite electrolyte layer 2 facing the positive electrode 3 or the negative electrode 4, the cycle performance of the battery can be effectively improved. It can be seen from the test results of Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 that when the composite electrolyte layer 2 does not contain fillers, the ionic conductivity of the solid electrolyte decreases, and the room temperature and high temperature cycle performance of the battery decreases.
[0127] It can be seen from the test results of Examples 1, 4 to 7 that when the thickness of the composite electrolyte layer 2 is too low, it is easy to cause a short circuit in the battery. When the thickness of the composite electrolyte layer 2 is too high, the ionic conductivity of the solid electrolyte is reduced, and the normal temperature and high temperature cycle performance of the battery is reduced. It can be seen from the test results of Examples 1, 8 to 12 that filler particles with too large a particle size reduce the ionic conductivity of the formed solid electrolyte, further reducing the normal temperature and high temperature cycle performance of the battery. When the particle size of the filler exceeds 3μm, a short circuit in the battery is caused. It can be seen from the test results of Examples 1, 13 to 17 that when the filler content is too low, the ionic conductivity of the solid electrolyte is reduced. When the filler content is too high, the filler is unevenly dispersed or even the filler cannot be evenly dispersed in the composite electrolyte layer 2, which reduces the ionic conductivity of the solid electrolyte.
[0128] It can be seen from the test results of Examples 1 and 20 to 23 that as the molar ratio of the polymer and the lithium salt changes, the cycle performance and ionic conductivity of the battery are affected. When the polymer content is too high, the porosity of the composite electrolyte layer 2 decreases, which further reduces the ionic conductivity of the solid electrolyte, thereby deteriorating the capacity retention rate of the battery. However, when the polymer content is too low, the mechanical properties of the composite electrolyte layer 2 will decrease.
[0129] It can be seen from the test results of Examples 1, 24 to 27 that in the preparation process of the electrolyte membrane, when the quality of the mixed solvent is too low, the polymer cannot be completely dissolved. It can be seen from the test results of Examples 1, 28 to 30 and Comparative Example 3 that in the preparation process of the electrolyte membrane, when the second solvent content is too much, the porosity is too large, resulting in a large pore size difference, further affecting the ionic conductivity of the solid electrolyte. When the first solvent content is too much, the porosity of the composite electrolyte layer 2 is too small, the ionic conductivity of the solid electrolyte is reduced, and the capacity retention rate of the battery is affected.
[0130] It can be seen from the test results of Examples 1 and 31 to 35 that the electrolyte membrane is suitable for electrolytes of different systems.
[0131] The embodiment of the present application further provides an electric device, the electric device comprising the battery. The electric device may be a vehicle, an aircraft, a computer, a mobile phone, etc.

For example, A and / or B may represent three situations: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone.
[0133] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
