[0031] Specifically, the present application adds a substance including a perfluorosulfonic acid group as an ion capture agent to the positive electrode lithium replenisher layer. The substance including a perfluorosulfonic acid group can be stably wrapped on the surface of the lithium replenisher, effectively reducing the pH value of the lithium replenisher material and reducing the influence of free lithium on the positive electrode lithium replenisher layer; at the same time, as an ion capture agent, the substance including a perfluorosulfonic acid group has a strong electronegative fluorine atom, which can effectively adsorb the metal ions dissolved in the positive electrode active material layer, increase the metal ion concentration near the positive electrode active material layer, and thus limit the continuous dissolution of the metal ions; in addition, the substance including a perfluorosulfonic acid group The adsorption of metal ions by the substance can also limit the migration of metal ions to the electrolyte and the negative electrode, thereby reducing the consumption of active lithium and increasing the cycle life of the battery; and the presence of the substance including the perfluorosulfonic acid group can also inhibit the migration of hydrogen ions to the positive electrode, further reducing the corrosion effect of hydrogen ions on the positive electrode active material layer, and improving the stability of the positive electrode active material layer, thereby effectively inhibiting the dissolution of metal elements in the positive electrode active material layer, the transport of hydrogen ions to the positive electrode active material layer, and the migration of metal ions in the battery, thereby effectively improving the high-temperature cycle stability of the secondary battery.
[0032] In one embodiment, the ion capture agent includes at least one of sulfonated polytetrafluoroethylene (Nafion) and perfluorosulfonic acid resin.

[0035] In one embodiment, the mass of the positive electrode active material accounts for 90-98% of the total mass of the positive electrode active material layer.
[0036] It should be noted that the testing and calculation method for the mass percentage of the positive electrode active material to the total mass of the positive electrode active material layer is: using ICP-OES to test the positive electrode active material content, and then dividing the mass of the positive electrode active material by the total mass of the positive electrode active material layer to obtain the corresponding mass percentage.

When the mass of the positive electrode active material is further selected to account for 90-98% of the total mass of the positive electrode active material layer, the comprehensive performance of the secondary battery obtained is better.
[0039] In one embodiment, the mass of the lithium replenisher accounts for 93-99% of the total mass of the positive electrode lithium replenisher layer.

[0047] Exemplarily, the mass percentage of the mass of the ion capture agent to the total mass of the positive electrode lithium replenishing agent layer can be any point value or any two point range values between 0.1 and 5%, for example, it can be 0.1%, 0.2%, 0.4%, 0.6%, 0.8%, 1%, 1.2%, 1.4%, 1.6%, 1.8%, 2%, 2.2%, 2.4%, 2.6%, 2.8%, 3%, 3.2%, 3.4%, 3.6%, 3.8%, 4%, 4.2%, 4.4%, 4.6%, 4.8%, 5% or any two range values.
[0048] The present application study found that the addition amount range of the ion capture agent will affect its coating effect on the lithium supplement agent, thereby affecting the amount of free lithium, and further affecting the high-temperature cycle performance, fast charging performance and initial internal resistance of the battery; at the same time, the addition amount range of the ion capture agent will also affect its electronegativity, thereby affecting its dissolution and migration of metal ions, and further affecting the high-temperature cycle performance of the battery; in addition, the addition amount of the ion capture agent will also affect its transport of hydrogen ions to the positive electrode, thereby affecting the stability of the positive electrode active material layer, and further affecting the cycle performance of the battery.

[0050] The present application study found that the mass percentage of the first slurry additive will synergistically affect the lithium supplement agent with the ion capture agent.

[0051] In one embodiment, the thickness ratio m of the positive electrode active material layer to the positive electrode lithium replenisher layer is 10-500.
[0052] It should be noted that the testing and calculation method of the thickness ratio m of the positive electrode active material layer and the positive electrode lithium replenisher layer is: take the electrode sheet after rolling and cut it to expose a regular cross-section, and use a scanning electron microscope (SEM) to measure the thickness of the positive electrode active material layer and the positive electrode lithium replenisher layer in the cross-section. The ratio of the thickness of the positive electrode material layer to the thickness of the positive electrode active material layer is m.
[0053] Exemplarily, the thickness ratio m of the positive electrode active material layer to the positive electrode lithium supplement layer can be any point value or any two point range values between 10 and 500, for example, it can be one of 10, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 120, 140, 160, 180, 200, 220, 240, 260, 280, 300, 320, 340, 360, 380, 400, 420, 440, 460, 480, 500 or any two range values.
