Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of battery technology, and in particular to a solid electrolyte membrane and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] As the development of traditional lithium-ion battery systems has reached a bottleneck, the innovation of battery technology has become increasingly urgent. Among them, solid-state batteries have higher energy density and safety performance and are generally considered to be an important development direction for the next generation of battery technology.

[0003] The solid electrolyte membrane is located between the positive and negative electrodes, and needs to have high ionic conductivity, high interface compatibility and high safety to meet the development needs of solid-state batteries. Pure polymer solid electrolytes have a narrow electrochemical window, low ionic conductivity, low thermal conductivity and poor safety performance, which seriously restrict the development of solid-state batteries. To this end, some technologies combine polymers and nanofillers to reduce the local crystallinity of the polymer and improve the electrochemical window and ionic conductivity. However, due to the size effect, nanofillers are prone to agglomeration in the polymer, making it difficult to form a continuous ion transport channel and thermal conductivity network, resulting in inconsistent reaction rates in various parts of the battery, increasing battery polarization, and limited improvements in electrochemical performance and safety performance.

Then connect the electrochemical workstation, apply a voltage amplitude of 10mV, and the test frequency range is 1MHz~1Hz. Measure the response current to obtain the corresponding impedance value R. Use a spiral micrometer to measure the thickness H of the solid electrolyte membrane at more than 10 different positions and take the average value.

[0076] Now, exemplary embodiments according to the present application will be described in more detail with reference to the drawings.

[0077] The first aspect of the present application provides a solid electrolyte membrane, which is composed of the first electrolyte close to the positive electrode and the second electrolyte layer close to the negative electrode, wherein the second electrolyte layer comprises a vertical array of micro-mesoporous materials, as shown in detail. Figure 1 .

[0078] Example 1

[0079] Preparation of vertical array micro-mesoporous material: 0.5g alumina hollow fiber array is immersed in 0.8mol / L dimethylimidazole solution, activated at 60℃ for 12h, and a large number of functional groups and active sites are induced on the surface of the template. Then the fiber array is immersed in 0.2mol / L zinc nitrate precursor solution, 0.8mol / L dimethylimidazole solution is added to the zinc solution under stirring at room temperature, hydrothermally reacted at 60℃ for 6h, filtered and dried to obtain a vertical array micro-mesoporous material, the length of which can be controlled by controlling the length of the alumina fiber array. The length of the micro-mesoporous material in Example 1 is 10μm.

[0080] Film forming treatment: The polytetrafluoroethylene, lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl imide) and trimethyl phosphate are dissolved in N,N-dimethylformamide solution in a certain mass ratio, mixed and dispersed evenly, and cast on the surface of the micro-mesoporous material (the mass ratio of micro-mesoporous material, polymer, lithium salt and additive is 50:35:12:3), and dried to obtain the second blank. Similarly, polytetrafluoroethylene, lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl imide) and trimethyl phosphate are mixed evenly in a mass ratio of 85:12:3, and scraped on the surface of the second blank to obtain the first blank.

[0081] Calendering treatment: Calendering the electrolyte layer composed of the first blank and the second blank at a pressure of 5t to obtain a solid electrolyte membrane; it is obvious that the thickness of the first / second electrolyte membrane layer can be achieved by controlling the relevant coating process and calendering process.

Then the fiber array was immersed in 0.3mol / L zirconium chloride precursor solution, 0.8mol / L terephthalic acid solution was added to the zirconium solution under room temperature stirring, hydrothermally reacted at 120°C for 24h, filtered and dried to obtain a vertical array micro-mesoporous material, the length of which can be controlled by controlling the length of the alumina fiber array.

[0100] Example 9

[0102] Comparative Example 1

[0103] The main differences between Comparative Example 1 and Example 1 include: no vertical array of micro-mesoporous material, polytetrafluoroethylene, lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide and trimethyl phosphate are uniformly mixed in a mass ratio of 85:12:3 and directly coated into a solid electrolyte membrane with a thickness of 15 μm.

[0106] Comparative Example 3

[0107] The main differences between Comparative Example 3 and Example 1 include: the length of the three-dimensional vertical array structure of the micro-mesoporous material is 5 μm, which does not satisfy 1≤h2 / L≤1.5 and 2≤L / h1≤5.

[0108] Comparative Example 4

[0109] The main differences between Comparative Example 4 and Example 1 include: only the second electrolyte layer is included, and the first electrolyte layer is not included.

[0110] The main differences between Examples 1-9 and Comparative Examples 1-4 are shown in Figure 2 .

[0111] From the results of Examples 1 to 9 and Comparative Examples 1 to 4 above, it can be seen that the ionic conductivity of the pure polymer system is low, lithium ions can only move slowly along the polymer chain, and the electrochemical window is narrow, it is easily oxidized under high voltage, has poor chemical stability, and poor cycle performance. In addition, the amorphous structure and vibration of the macromolecular chain in the polymer make it have extremely low thermal conductivity, which easily causes thermal inhomogeneity and heat accumulation of the solid electrolyte membrane during the charge and discharge process, exacerbating the electrode side reaction and the uneven deposition of lithium dendrites.

[0112] When polymers are composited with micro-mesoporous materials, the entanglement and interaction between polymer molecular chains can be reduced, and their ionic conductivity and thermal conductivity can be improved. However, when its content is low, the polymer is a continuous phase, and the micro-mesoporous materials exist in isolation in the polymer matrix, and are not connected to each other, forming a "sea-island" structure, which has a low contribution to improving the thermal conductivity of the polymer; when the content increases, the micro-mesoporous materials contact each other, forming a local thermal conductive chain or thermal conductive network, and the thermal conductivity of the system is significantly increased. Therefore, the ionic conductivity, electrochemical window and thermal conductivity of polymer electrolytes composited with micro-mesoporous materials can be further improved, but inorganic fillers are prone to agglomeration, and the cycle performance is still poor, which is difficult to meet actual needs.

[0113] Furthermore, constructing a vertical array of micro-mesoporous material composite polymer electrolytes can further improve electrochemical performance and safety performance. When constructing a continuous micro-mesoporous material channel, its heat conduction chains are interconnected to form a heat conduction network that runs through the entire system. The heat flow is transmitted along the continuous three-dimensional array structure, the phonon scattering is small, and the thermal conductivity of the composite electrolyte is significantly improved. However, its continuous transmission channel is short, and the performance improvement is limited. In addition, the single first electrolyte layer has low ionic conductivity and thermal conductivity, and poor cycle performance and safety performance. The single second electrolyte layer has poor solid-solid interface contact and low cycle performance, which are difficult to meet actual needs.

[0114] Finally, the present application constructs a continuous, appropriately lengthed, vertical array of micro-mesoporous materials composite polymer solid electrolytes with short fast ion transport channels and three-dimensional thermal conductive networks, which can significantly improve ionic conductivity, electrochemical window and safety performance. The present application can combine high ionic conductivity, wide electrochemical window and high safety performance through a double electrolyte layer design, and exhibits excellent electrochemical performance and safety performance when used in secondary batteries.

[0115] The present application discloses a solid electrolyte membrane and a method for preparing the same. The solid electrolyte membrane includes a first electrolyte close to the positive electrode and a second electrolyte layer close to the negative electrode. The first electrolyte layer includes a polymer, a lithium salt and an additive, and the second electrolyte layer includes a solid electrolyte, a polymer, a lithium salt and an additive in a vertical array structure. The first electrolyte layer has a high voltage electrochemical window and can match high voltage positive electrode materials. The solid electrolyte of the second electrolyte layer is composed of a vertical array of micro-mesoporous materials, which has a micro-mesoporous structure and high surface adsorption energy, and can accelerate the dissociation of lithium salts. Through this vertical array structure design, the present application can effectively improve the filler agglomeration problem of polymer solid electrolytes, confine the anions in the lithium salt and reduce the molecular interaction between polymer chains, form a continuous and fast ion transmission channel and a three-dimensional thermal conductive network, and can significantly improve the ionic conductivity and safety performance. Secondly, the present application has high ionic conductivity, wide electrochemical window and high safety performance through a double electrolyte layer design, and exhibits excellent electrochemical performance and safety performance when used in secondary batteries.
