Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of battery technology and relates to an electrolyte additive, an electrolyte, and a battery. Background Technology

[0002] Lithium-ion batteries are one of the main energy storage technologies in the new energy field due to their high energy density, portability, high design flexibility, and high safety. Currently, the positive electrode of lithium-ion batteries is mainly composed of lithium iron phosphate and ternary materials (nickel, cobalt, manganese, and aluminum), while the negative electrode is mainly composed of carbon materials (graphite, soft carbon, and hard carbon, etc.). Silicon negative electrodes have a high theoretical specific capacity and, by replacing traditional carbon material negative electrodes, are expected to improve the mass and volumetric energy density of lithium-ion batteries.

[0003] Although silicon has a high theoretical specific capacity (3579 mAh / g) in lithium-ion battery anodes, it undergoes significant volume changes during lithium insertion / extraction, leading to silicon particle cracking and pulverization, thus affecting the battery's cycle life. To address the problem of severe silicon volume expansion, existing technologies utilize silicon-carbon composite materials, taking advantage of the excellent conductivity and cycle stability of carbon materials as a substrate for silicon. For example, CN106935834A discloses a porous silicon anode material with a composite carbon layer and its preparation method. Based on dealloyed porous silicon, a composite carbon layer is formed by combining graphene with high-density carbon or low-density carbon with high-density carbon. This achieves the initial coating of loose carbon and the overall coating of high-density carbon on the outside. The internal low-density carbon layer can improve the internal conductivity of the entire micron structure, while the external high-density carbon can effectively prevent the electrolyte from penetrating the carbon layer and entering the interior of the micron particles. However, it is difficult to achieve uniform dispersion of silicon particles in carbon materials. Therefore, silicon-carbon anodes still suffer from low kinetics and large volume expansion, leading to particle pulverization and the formation of inert lithium, making silicon-carbon anodes difficult to apply.

[0004] Based on the above research, there is a need to provide an electrolyte additive that can inhibit the expansion and fragmentation of silicon-carbon anodes during charging and discharging, thereby improving the initial efficiency and cycle stability of silicon-carbon anodes. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an electrolyte additive, an electrolyte, and a battery, particularly an electrolyte additive, an electrolyte, and a battery that are compatible with silicon-carbon anodes. The electrolyte additive, by employing an electrolyte additive containing specific groups, can combine with silicon particles to form a stable structure, form a stable SEI film, reduce electrolyte decomposition, improve electronic conductivity, and reduce the occurrence of electrolyte side reactions. This effectively suppresses the expansion of silicon-carbon anodes, solves the problems of low initial efficiency, poor cycle performance, and poor high-temperature storage performance of silicon-carbon anodes, and improves the cycle performance and high-temperature storage performance of the battery.

[0006] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] In a first aspect, the present invention provides an electrolyte additive, the structural formula of which is shown in Formula 1):

[0008]

[0009] In this configuration, R1 is independently selected from substituted or unsubstituted alkyl groups, R2 is selected from hydrogen, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl groups, R3 is selected from substituted or unsubstituted alkyl groups, and R4 is independently selected from substituted or unsubstituted alkyl groups.

[0010] The present invention uses specific electrolyte additives to specifically solve problems such as low initial efficiency, poor cycle and high temperature storage of silicon-carbon anodes, improve the mechanical stability, conductivity and cycle stability of silicon-carbon materials, reduce electrolyte decomposition, and reduce the occurrence of side reactions in the electrolyte. The specific reasons are as follows: (1) The indole group in the electrolyte additive can combine with silicon particles through chemical bonding to form a stable structure, thereby effectively alleviating the volume expansion problem of silicon particles during charging and discharging, enhancing the mechanical stability of silicon-carbon materials, and improving the conductivity and cycle stability of silicon-carbon materials.

[0011] (2) The presence of carbonyl groups in the electrolyte additives can undergo polymerization on the surface of the silicon-carbon anode to form a polycarbonate polymer film, thereby preventing direct contact between the electrolyte and the anode and reducing the decomposition of the electrolyte.

[0012] (3) Since F has strong electron-withdrawing properties and there are fluorine atoms in the electrolyte additives, an electrolyte interface film (SEI film) rich in inorganic substances such as LiF will be formed during the charging and discharging process of the battery. The SEI film formed has high mechanical strength and stability, which can suppress the damage to the SEI structure caused by the volume expansion of the silicon-carbon anode during the charging and discharging process.

[0013] (4) The presence of siloxanes in electrolyte additives can increase the electronic conductivity of silicon-carbon anode materials and reduce resistance, thereby improving the charge and discharge rate and efficiency of the battery.

[0014] (5) The presence of B atoms in the electrolyte additive can form a stable borate film on the surface of the silicon-carbon anode. This film has good flexibility and mechanical strength, and can adapt to the volume change of the silicon-carbon anode during charging and discharging, thereby maintaining the integrity of the SEI film. In addition, borate can also inhibit the decomposition of the electrolyte on the surface of the anode and reduce the occurrence of side reactions.

[0015] In this invention, R1 is independently selected from substituted or unsubstituted alkyl groups, such as substituted or unsubstituted methyl, ethyl, or isopropyl; R2 is selected from hydrogen, substituted or unsubstituted alkyl groups, such as hydrogen, substituted or unsubstituted methyl, ethyl, or isopropyl; R3 is selected from substituted or unsubstituted alkyl groups, such as substituted or unsubstituted methyl, ethyl, or isopropyl; R4 is independently selected from substituted or unsubstituted alkyl groups, such as substituted or unsubstituted methyl, ethyl, or isopropyl; among R1, R2, R3, and R4, the substituents in the substituted alkyl groups can be halogens, etc.
