[0002] This application relates to a battery cell, a battery device and an electrical device. Background Art

[0003] Battery cells have characteristics such as high capacity and long life, so they are widely used in electronic devices, such as mobile phones, laptops, battery-powered vehicles, electric vehicles, electric airplanes, electric ships, electric toy cars, electric toy ships, electric toy airplanes, and power tools, etc. Due to great progress in the battery field, higher requirements are put forward for the performance of batteries. However, currently, battery cells cannot balance the improvement of energy density and fast charging performance. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This application provides a battery cell, a battery device and an electrical device, which can improve the reliability and cycling performance of the battery cell.

[0005] In a first aspect, this application proposes a battery cell. The battery cell includes an electrode assembly, and the electrode assembly includes a positive electrode tab, a separator, and a negative electrode tab stacked in the thickness direction of the battery cell; the positive electrode tab includes a positive electrode ear, a positive current collector, and a positive electrode film layer disposed on at least one surface of the positive current collector in the thickness direction and containing a positive electrode active material, and the positive electrode ear is disposed on at least one side of the positive current collector; the negative electrode tab includes a negative electrode ear, a negative current collector, and a negative electrode film layer disposed on at least one surface of the negative current collector in the thickness direction and containing a negative electrode active material, and the negative electrode ear is disposed on at least one side of the negative current collector, wherein the ratio of the length to the width of the positive electrode film layer is 4 to 20; the length of the positive electrode film layer is 600 mm to 1200 mm; the single-sided coating weight of the negative electrode film layer is 74 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 to 156 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 . It should be noted that the dimension of the positive electrode film layer in the length direction is the length of the positive electrode film layer, and the dimension of the positive electrode film layer in the width direction is the width of the positive electrode film layer.

[0006] Thus, when the embodiments of this application meet the above requirements, when the ratio of the length to the width of the positive electrode film layer is within the above range and the single-sided coating weight of the negative electrode film layer is within the above range, the current distribution in the positive current collector and the negative current collector is relatively uniform, and the uniformly extracted lithium can be uniformly embedded in the negative electrode tab. The negative electrode tab is not prone to lithium deposition, which can improve the fast charging performance of the battery cell and can also improve the energy density.

[0007] In some embodiments, the width of the positive electrode film layer is from 60 mm to 150 mm. The relatively short width of the positive electrode film layer enables a shorter transmission path of electrons in the width direction, thereby improving the current uniformity in the width direction.

[0008] In some embodiments, the positive electrode tabs are disposed on both sides of the positive current collector along the length direction of the electrode assembly. By disposing the positive electrode tabs on both sides of the positive current collector along the length direction, the current in the length direction of the positive current collector is evenly divided by the positive electrode tabs on both sides, resulting in a shorter electron transmission path and a more uniform current distribution. The de-lithiation state of each part of the positive electrode plate is uniform, and the charging performance of the battery cell can be improved.

[0009] In some embodiments, there is one or more positive electrode tabs on the same side of the positive current collector. The positive electrode tab includes a first end face connected to the positive current collector. The dimension of the first end face in the width direction is W1, and the sum of the dimensions of all the first end faces in the width direction on the same side of the positive current collector is n×W1. The dimension of the positive current collector in the width direction is W2, and n×W1 / W2 is greater than or equal to 1 / 3, where n represents the number of all positive electrode tabs on the same side of the positive current collector. Optionally, n×W1 / W2 is greater than or equal to 2 / 3, where n represents the number of all positive electrode tabs on the same side of the positive current collector.

[0010] Thus, when n×W1 / W2 satisfies the above range, the current-carrying area of the positive electrode tab is relatively large, which is beneficial to improving the fast charging performance of the battery cell.

[0011] In some embodiments, the negative electrode tabs are disposed on both sides of the negative current collector along the length direction of the electrode assembly. By disposing the negative electrode tabs on both sides of the negative current collector along the length direction, the current in the length direction of the negative current collector is evenly divided by the negative electrode tabs on both sides, resulting in a shorter electron transmission path and a more uniform current distribution. The lithium-insertion state of each part of the negative electrode plate is uniform, and the charging performance of the battery cell can be improved.

[0012] In some embodiments, there is one or more negative electrode tabs on the same side of the negative current collector. The negative electrode tab includes a second end face connected to the negative current collector. The dimension of the second end face in the width direction is W3, and the sum of the dimensions of all the second end faces in the width direction on the same side of the negative current collector is m×W3. The dimension of the negative current collector in the width direction is W4, and m×W3 / W4 is greater than or equal to 1 / 3, where m represents the number of all negative electrode tabs on the same side of the negative current collector. Optionally, m×W3 / W4 is greater than or equal to 2 / 3, where m represents the number of all negative electrode tabs on the same side of the negative current collector.

[0013] Thus, when m×W3 / W4 satisfies the above range, the current-carrying area of the negative electrode tab is relatively large, which is beneficial to improving the fast charging performance of the battery cell.

[0014] In some embodiments, the positive electrode tab is disposed on at least one side of the positive electrode current collector portion in the width direction. In the positive electrode current collector portion, the electron transmission path is short, and the current distribution is more uniform. The de-lithiation state of each part of the positive electrode tab is uniform, and the charging performance of the battery cell can be improved.

[0015] In some embodiments, the number of positive electrode tabs on the same side of the positive electrode current collector portion is one or more. The positive electrode tab includes a third end face connected to the positive electrode current collector portion, and the dimension of the third end face in the length direction is L 10 , and the sum of the dimensions of all the third end faces on the same side of the positive electrode current collector portion in the length direction is s×L 10 , the dimension of the positive electrode current collector portion in the length direction is L1, s×L 10 / L1 is greater than or equal to 1 / 3, and s represents the number of all positive electrode tabs on the same side of the positive electrode current collector portion.

[0016] Thus, the current-carrying area of the positive electrode tab is relatively large, which is beneficial to improving the fast charging performance of the battery cell.

[0017] In some embodiments, the negative electrode tab is disposed on at least one side of the negative electrode current collector portion in the width direction. In the negative electrode current collector portion, the electron transmission path is short, and the current distribution is more uniform. The de-lithiation state of each part of the negative electrode tab is uniform, and the charging performance of the battery cell can be improved.

[0018] In some embodiments, the number of negative electrode tabs on the same side of the negative electrode current collector portion is one or more. The negative electrode tab includes a fourth end face connected to the negative electrode current collector portion, and the dimension of the fourth end face in the length direction is L 20 , and the sum of the dimensions of all the fourth end faces on the same side of the negative electrode current collector portion in the length direction is p×L 20 , the dimension of the negative electrode current collector portion in the length direction is L2, p×L 20 / L2 is greater than or equal to 1 / 3, and p represents the number of all negative electrode tabs on the same side of the negative electrode current collector portion.

[0019] Thus, the current-carrying area of the negative electrode tab is relatively large, which is beneficial to improving the fast charging performance of the battery cell.

[0020] In some embodiments, along the length direction, the dimension of the negative electrode film layer is larger than that of the positive electrode film layer, and the difference between the dimension of the negative electrode film layer and that of the positive electrode film layer is OH 1 , OH 1 is 0.5 mm to 3.0 m. The larger dimension of the negative electrode film layer than that of the positive electrode film layer can reduce the risk of lithium plating.

[0021] In some embodiments, along the width direction, the dimension of the negative electrode film layer is larger than that of the positive electrode film layer, and the difference between the dimension of the negative electrode film layer and that of the positive electrode film layer is OH 2, OH 2 is from 0.5 mm to 3.0 mm. The size of the negative electrode film layer is larger than that of the positive electrode film layer, which can reduce the risk of lithium plating.

[0022] In some embodiments, the positive electrode tab is disposed on both sides of the positive electrode current collector along the length direction, the negative electrode tab is disposed on at least one side of the negative electrode current collector along the length direction. Along the length direction of the battery cell, the size of the negative electrode film layer is larger than that of the positive electrode film layer, and the difference between the size of the negative electrode film layer and the size of the positive electrode film layer is OH 1 ; along the width direction of the battery cell, the size of the negative electrode film layer is larger than that of the positive electrode film layer, and the difference between the size of the negative electrode film layer and the size of the positive electrode film layer is OH 2 , where OH 1 is greater than OH 2 .

[0023] Thus, in the embodiments of the present application, OH 1 is set to be greater than OH 2 , so that the ability of the region near the negative electrode film layer to receive lithium ions in the length direction is stronger. In particular, the ability of the region of the negative electrode film layer near the negative electrode tab to receive lithium ions can be improved, the risk of lithium plating can be reduced, and the use reliability of the battery cell can be improved.

[0024] In some embodiments, the battery cell further includes a positive terminal, and the positive terminal is electrically connected to the positive electrode tab.

[0025] In some embodiments, the positive terminal is directly welded to the positive electrode tab. Direct welding of the positive terminal and the positive electrode tab can reduce the resistance at the connection, which is beneficial to reducing the overall internal resistance of the battery cell.

[0026] In some embodiments, the battery cell further includes a positive terminal, the positive terminal is connected to the positive electrode tab, and the positive terminal is one or at least two, and is preferably at least two. At least two positive terminals can increase the overall current-carrying capacity of the positive terminals.

[0027] In some embodiments, the number of positive terminals on the same side of the positive electrode current collector is at least two. At least two positive terminals can increase the overall current-carrying capacity of the positive terminals.

[0028] In some embodiments, the current-carrying area of a single positive terminal is from 200 mm 2 to 800 mm 2 . When the current-carrying area of the positive terminal satisfies the above relationship, the current-carrying capacity is relatively excellent, which is beneficial to fast charging.

[0029] In some embodiments, the battery cell further includes a negative terminal, and the negative terminal is electrically connected to the negative electrode tab.

[0030] In some embodiments, the battery cell further includes a negative terminal, which is connected to the negative electrode tab. The negative terminal is one or at least two, and preferably at least two. At least two negative terminals can increase the overall overcurrent capacity of the negative terminals.

[0031] In some embodiments, the negative terminal is directly welded to the negative electrode tab. Directly welding the negative terminal and the negative electrode tab can reduce the resistance at the connection, which is beneficial to reducing the overall internal resistance of the battery cell.

[0032] In some embodiments, the number of negative terminals on the same side of the negative current collector is at least two. At least two negative terminals can increase the overall overcurrent capacity of the negative terminals.

[0033] In some embodiments, the overcurrent area of a single negative terminal is 200 mm 2 to 800 mm 2 . When the overcurrent area of the negative terminal satisfies the above relationship, the overcurrent capacity is relatively excellent, which is beneficial to fast charging.

[0034] In some embodiments, the battery cell includes a housing that houses the electrode assembly and the electrolyte. The thickness of the housing is 0.1 mm to 0.5 mm, and preferably 0.2 mm to 0.35 mm. The housing has a relatively thin thickness, occupies less space, and can further improve the energy density of the battery cell.

[0035] In some embodiments, when the battery cell is in a 100% charged state, the compaction density of the positive electrode film layer is 2.50 g / cm 3 to 2.80 g / cm 3 , and preferably 2.55 g / cm 3 to 2.70 g / cm 3 . When the compaction density of the positive electrode film layer is within the above range, it is beneficial to improve the energy density of the battery cell; and since the positive active material in the positive electrode film layer is stacked relatively tightly, the contact resistance between particles is small, which can further reduce the resistance of the electrode sheet and thus reduce heat generation.

[0036] In some embodiments, the single-sided coating weight of the positive electrode film layer is 160 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 to 340 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 . When the single-sided coating weight of the positive electrode film layer is within the above range, the heat generation per unit area of the positive electrode sheet will not be too large, and it can also take into account improving the energy density of the battery cell.

[0037] In some embodiments, the powder resistivity of the positive active material is 1 Ω•cm to 27.5 Ω•cm. The relatively low powder resistivity of the positive active material results in a relatively low resistance of the positive electrode sheet and less heat generation of the battery cell.

[0038] In some embodiments, the powder compaction density of the positive electrode active material under 30,000 N is 2.46 g / cm 3 to 2.8 g / cm 3 . When the powder compaction density of the positive electrode active material under 30,000 N is within the above range, the energy density of the battery cell can be improved. Moreover, since the positive electrode active material in the positive electrode film layer can be stacked more closely, the contact resistance between particles is small, which can further reduce the resistance of the electrode sheet, thereby reducing heat generation.

[0039] In some embodiments, the charging specific capacity of the positive electrode active material at a 0.1 C rate is 150 mAh / g to 170 mAh / g. When the charging specific capacity of the positive electrode active material at a 0.1 C rate is within the above range, the energy density of the battery cell is relatively high.

[0040] In some embodiments, the positive electrode active material includes a lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure. The lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure includes phosphate particles and a coating layer. The coating layer coats the phosphate particles, and the coating layer contains one or more elements of C, Fe, Ti, Zr, Hf, Ge, and Sn. By surface coating the phosphate particles with the coating layer, the conductivity of the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure can be improved, the powder resistivity of the material can be reduced, and it is beneficial to the migration rate of lithium ions, reducing the heat generation of the battery cell.

[0041] In some embodiments, the phosphate particles include a compound with the general formula Li x1 A y1 Me a M b P 1-c X c Y z , where 0.5 ≤ x 1 ≤ 1.3, 0 ≤ y 1 ≤ 1.3, and 0.9 ≤ x 1 + y 1 ≤ 1.3, 0.9 ≤ a ≤ 1.5, 0 ≤ b ≤ 0.5, and 0.9 ≤ a + b ≤ 1.5, 0 ≤ c ≤ 0.5, 3 ≤ z ≤ 5, A includes one or more of Na, K, and Mg, Me includes one or more of Mn, Fe, Co, and Ni, M includes one or more of B, Mg, Al, Si, P, S, Ca, Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Cu, Zn, Sr, Y, Zr, Nb, Mo, Cd, Sn, Sb, Te, Ba, Ta, W, Yb, La, and Ce, X includes one or more of S, Si, Cl, B, C, and N, and Y includes one or more of O and F. The phosphate particles have relatively excellent cycle stability, which is beneficial to improving the cycle performance of the battery cell.

[0042] In some embodiments, the coating layer comprises a fast ion conductor with the general formula Li 3-d Fe 2-d M2 d (PO x2 ) y2 , where M2 comprises one or more elements selected from Ti, Zr, Hf, Ge, and Sn, 0 ≤ d ≤ 1, 0 < x 2 <5, 0 < y 2 <4. Coating the surface of the phosphate particles with the fast ion conductor can significantly improve the transmission rate of lithium ions during multiple deintercalation / insertion of lithium at the positive electrode, improve the ionic conductivity of the positive electrode active material, thereby increasing the specific capacity, and further increasing the energy density of the corresponding battery cell.

[0043] In some embodiments, the graphitization degree of the positive electrode active material is from 0.15 to 0.32, and may be optionally from 0.19 to 0.26. When the graphitization degree of the positive electrode active material is within the above range, it is beneficial to improve the conductivity of the positive electrode active material, reduce the heat generation of the positive electrode sheet, and thus reduce the heat generation of the battery cell.

[0044] In some embodiments, the mass content of carbon element in the lithium-containing phosphate with olivine structure is from 1% to 2%, and the specific surface area of the lithium-containing phosphate with olivine structure is 5 m 2 / g to 18 m 2 / g, and may be optionally from 7.5 m 2 / g to 14 m 2 / g.

[0045] Thus, in the embodiments of the present application, the carbon element with the above mass content cooperates with the material with the above specific surface area, which is more conducive to the effective contact between the electrolyte and the lithium-containing phosphate with olivine structure, and is conducive to the transmission of lithium ions at the phase interface.

[0046] In some embodiments, the lithium-containing phosphate with olivine structure is granular, and its volume distribution particle size satisfies: 1 µm ≤ Dv50 ≤ 2 µm, 0.4 µm ≤ Dv10 ≤ 0.7 µm. The particle size of the lithium-containing phosphate with olivine structure is relatively small, the deintercalation / insertion path of lithium ions in the positive electrode active material is short, the heat generation is less, and the particle size of the above positive electrode active material is not too small, and basically no agglomeration occurs during the processing and preparation process, so that the performance of the positive electrode active material is stable.

[0047] In some embodiments, the lithium-containing phosphate with olivine structure is granular, and the lithium-containing phosphate with olivine structure comprises secondary particles, and the secondary particles comprise a plurality of primary particles, and the average particle size of the primary particles is from 200 nm to 500 nm. The average particle size of the primary particles is relatively small, the deintercalation / insertion path of lithium ions in the positive electrode active material is short, and the heat generation is less.

[0048] In some embodiments, the particle size of the smallest particles in the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure is 0.1 μm to 0.4 μm; when the particle size of the smallest particles is within the above range, agglomeration is not likely to occur during the preparation of the positive electrode film layer.

[0049] In some embodiments, the particle size of the largest particles in the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure is 15 μm to 25 μm. When the particle size of the largest particles is within the above range, the migration path of lithium ions during charge and discharge will not be too long, which can improve the fast charge and discharge performance of the battery cell.

[0050] In some embodiments, the ratio of the thickness of the positive electrode current collector part to the thickness of the single-sided positive electrode film layer is 0.05 to 0.3. When the ratio of the thickness of the positive electrode current collector part to the thickness of the single-sided positive electrode film layer is within the above range, the fast charging ability and energy density of the battery cell can be improved.

[0051] In some embodiments, the thickness of the positive electrode current collector part is 10 μm to 15 μm. When the thickness of the positive electrode current collector part is within the above range, the current-carrying capacity of the positive electrode current collector part is relatively excellent, and the battery cell can have a high energy density.

[0052] In some embodiments, the positive electrode film layer further includes a first material, and the first material includes one or more of ternary materials, lithium phosphate, lithium hydrogen phosphate, lithium sulfate, lithium sulfite, lithium molybdate, lithium oxalate, lithium titanate, lithium tetraborate, lithium metasilicate, lithium manganate, lithium tartrate, trilithium citrate, lithium nickelate, and lithium ferrate. The above first material can be used as a lithium supplement agent, which can supplement lithium ions for the positive electrode film layer, make up for the irreversible loss of lithium ions in the system, improve the capacity, and thus improve the energy density of the battery cell.

[0053] In some embodiments, the mass content of the lithium supplement agent in the positive electrode film layer is 0.5% to 5%. When the mass content of the lithium supplement agent is within the above range, it can supplement lithium ions for the positive electrode film layer, make up for the irreversible loss of lithium ions in the system, improve the capacity, and thus improve the energy density of the battery cell.

[0054] In some embodiments, the positive electrode plate further includes a positive electrode conductive layer, and the positive electrode conductive layer is located between the positive electrode film layer and the positive electrode current collector part. The positive electrode conductive layer can further improve the conductive performance of the positive electrode plate, reduce the heat generation of the positive electrode plate, and thus reduce the heat generation of the battery cell.

[0055] In some embodiments, the thickness of the positive electrode conductive layer is 0.5 μm to 2 μm. When the thickness of the positive electrode conductive layer is within the above range, it can further improve the conductive performance of the positive electrode plate, reduce the heat generation of the positive electrode plate, and thus reduce the heat generation of the battery cell, and can also take into account the improvement of the energy density of the battery cell.

[0056] In some embodiments, the positive electrode conductive layer includes one or more of a positive electrode conductive agent and a positive electrode binder. The positive electrode conductive agent in the positive electrode conductive layer can improve the conductivity of the positive electrode conductive layer, thereby improving the conductivity of the positive electrode sheet, reducing the heat generation of the battery cell. The positive electrode binder in the positive electrode conductive layer can improve the bonding performance between the positive electrode current collector part and the positive electrode film layer, and improve the structural stability of the positive electrode sheet.

[0057] In some embodiments, the positive electrode conductive agent includes one or more of superconducting carbon, conductive graphite, acetylene black, carbon black, Ketjen black, carbon dots, carbon nanotubes, graphene, and carbon nanofibers.

[0058] In some embodiments, the positive electrode binder includes one or more of polyvinylidene fluoride, polytetrafluoroethylene, vinylidene fluoride-tetrafluoroethylene-propylene terpolymer, vinylidene fluoride-hexafluoropropylene-tetrafluoroethylene terpolymer, tetrafluoroethylene-hexafluoropropylene copolymer, polyacrylic acid, and fluorinated acrylate resins.

[0059] In some embodiments, the powder compaction density of the negative electrode active material under 20000N is 1.5 g / cm 3 to 1.85 g / cm 3 . When the powder compaction density of the negative electrode active material under 20000N is within the above range, the energy density of the battery cell can be improved, and since the negative electrode active materials in the negative electrode film layer can be stacked more closely, the contact resistance between particles is small, which can further reduce the resistance of the electrode sheet, thereby reducing heat generation.

[0060] In some embodiments, the charging specific capacity of the negative electrode active material at a 0.1C rate is greater than or equal to 350 mAh / g. When the charging specific capacity of the negative electrode active material at a 0.1C rate is within the above range, the energy density of the battery cell is relatively high.

[0061] In some embodiments, the negative electrode active material includes a carbon-based material, the carbon-based material includes graphite particles, and the graphitization degree of the graphite particles is 92.0% to 94.5%. When the graphitization degree of the graphite particles is within the above range, the conductive performance of the graphite particles is relatively excellent, which can reduce the heat generation of the negative electrode sheet and the battery cell, and can improve the fast charging performance of the battery cell.

[0062] In some embodiments, the graphite particles include artificial graphite and a carbon coating layer, the artificial graphite includes secondary particles, and the carbon coating layer covers the surface of the artificial graphite. The carbon coating layer has more end faces and defects, so that the number of sites capable of intercalating and deintercalating lithium ions is larger, and the conductivity of the carbon coating layer is relatively excellent, which can reduce the internal resistance of the negative electrode sheet and the heat generation of the battery cell.

[0063] In some embodiments, based on the mass of the graphite particles, the mass content of the carbon coating layer is 2% to 5%. When the mass content of the carbon coating layer is within the above range, the internal resistance of the negative electrode sheet can be further reduced, and the heat generation of the battery cell can be reduced.

[0064] In some embodiments, the negative electrode film layer includes a first negative electrode film layer and a second negative electrode film layer. The first negative electrode film layer is disposed on the surface of the negative electrode current collector portion. The first negative electrode film layer includes a carbon-based material. The second negative electrode film layer is connected to the side of the first negative electrode film layer facing away from the negative electrode current collector portion. The second negative electrode film layer includes a carbon-based material. The carbon-based materials in the first negative electrode film layer and the second negative electrode film layer each independently include graphite particles, and the volume average particle diameter Dv50 of the graphite particles in the first negative electrode film layer is greater than or equal to the volume average particle diameter Dv50 of the graphite particles in the second negative electrode film layer.

[0065] Thus, in the embodiments of the present application, there is a difference in the particle diameters of the first negative electrode film layer and the second negative electrode film layer, which can improve the fast charging performance of the battery cell. Specifically, during fast charging, the overpotential of the second negative electrode film layer is usually relatively high, and the bottleneck of fast charging mainly lies in the second negative electrode film layer. In the embodiments of the present application, the particle diameter of the second negative electrode film layer is relatively small, which can shorten the solid-phase transmission path of lithium ions, improve the fast charging performance, and can improve the problem of lithium deposition on the surface layer of the negative electrode sheet.

[0066] In some embodiments, the carbon-based material in the first negative electrode film layer further includes natural graphite.

[0067] In some embodiments, the tap density of the carbon-based material in the first negative electrode film layer is less than or equal to the tap density of the carbon-based material in the second negative electrode film layer. When the tap density of the carbon-based material in the second negative electrode film layer is greater than the tap density of the carbon-based material in the first negative electrode film layer, the second negative electrode film layer is filled more densely, so that the energy density of the battery cell is improved. The filling of the first negative electrode film layer is relatively sparse and the pores are richer, which can improve the fast charging performance of the battery cell.

[0068] In some embodiments, the tap density of the carbon-based material in the first negative electrode film layer is 0.82 g / cm 3 to 1.21 g / cm 3 . When the tap density of the carbon-based material in the first negative electrode film layer is within a suitable range, the fast charging performance of the battery cell can be improved.

[0069] In some embodiments, the tap density of the carbon-based material in the second negative electrode film layer is 0.90 g / cm 3 to 1.25 g / cm 3 . When the tap density of the carbon-based material in the second negative electrode film layer is within a suitable range, the energy density of the battery cell can be improved. In some embodiments, the volume average particle size Dv50 of the graphite particles in the first negative electrode film layer is 9.5 μm to 18.5 μm. When the volume average particle size Dv50 of the negative electrode active material in the first negative electrode film layer is within the above range, the fast charging performance can be improved.

[0070] In some embodiments, the volume average particle size Dv50 of the graphite particles in the second negative electrode film layer is 7.8 μm to 14.3 μm. When the volume average particle size Dv50 of the negative electrode active material in the second negative electrode film layer is within the above range, the tortuosity of lithium ion transport can be reduced, and the fast charging performance of the battery cell can be improved.

[0071] In some embodiments, the first negative electrode film layer further includes a first lithium-containing binder, and the second negative electrode film layer further includes a second lithium-containing binder. The mass content of the first lithium-containing binder relative to the mass of the first negative electrode film layer is less than or equal to the mass content of the second lithium-containing binder relative to the mass of the second negative electrode film layer.

[0072] Therefore, in the embodiments of the present application, the mass content of the second lithium-containing binder in the second negative electrode film layer is relatively high, and the number of freely movable lithium ions provided by the second lithium-containing binder for the second negative electrode film layer is relatively large, which can further improve the fast charging performance of the battery cell.

[0074] In some embodiments, the mass content of lithium element in the first lithium-containing binder is 3% to 10%, and can be optionally 3% to 8%. When the mass content of lithium element is within the above range, the number of freely movable lithium ions in the negative electrode film layer can be relatively large, which can further shorten the distance for lithium ions to diffuse to the surface of the negative electrode film layer, improve the insertion / extraction rate of lithium ions, and improve the fast charging performance of the battery cell.

[0127] With the development of the battery field, the requirements for the energy density and fast charging of batteries are gradually increasing. However, it has been found through research that when the energy density of the battery is increased, the increase in the transport resistance of active ions such as lithium ions makes it impossible for a single battery cell to achieve fast charging, and the energy density and fast charging ability of the battery cannot be improved simultaneously.

[0128] In view of the above problems, the embodiments of this application design a single battery cell, and improve the structural form, size of the electrode sheet and the coating weight of the film layer, so that the energy density and fast charging ability of the single battery cell can be improved simultaneously.

[0129] battery cell In a first aspect, the embodiments of this application propose a single battery cell.

[0130] As Figures 1 to 5 shown, the single battery cell 7 includes an electrode assembly 10 and an electrolyte. The electrode assembly 10 includes a positive electrode sheet 11, a separator 13 and a negative electrode sheet 12 stacked along the thickness direction X of the single battery cell 7; the positive electrode sheet 11 includes a positive electrode tab 111, a positive current collector 112 and a positive electrode film layer 113 disposed on at least one surface of the positive current collector 112 along the thickness direction X and containing a positive electrode active material, and the positive electrode tab 111 is disposed on at least one side of the positive current collector 112; the negative electrode sheet 12 includes a negative electrode tab 121, a negative current collector 122 and a negative electrode film layer 123 disposed on at least one surface of the negative current collector 122 along the thickness direction X and containing a negative electrode active material, and the negative electrode tab 121 is disposed on at least one side of the negative current collector 122. Among them, the ratio of the length to the width of the positive electrode film layer 113 is 4 to 20; the length of the positive electrode film layer 113 is 600 mm to 1200 mm; the single-sided coating weight of the negative electrode film layer 123 is 74 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 to 156 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 .

[0131] The electrode assembly 10 of the embodiment of the present application is a stacked electrode assembly 10, and the positive electrode sheet 11, the separator 13 and the negative electrode sheet 12 form the electrode assembly 10 through a lamination process. The thickness direction X of the electrode assembly 10, the thickness direction of the positive electrode sheet 11 and the thickness direction of the negative electrode sheet 12 are parallel. The width direction of the electrode assembly 10, the width direction of the positive electrode sheet 11 and the width direction of the negative electrode sheet 12 are parallel. The length direction of the electrode assembly 10, the length direction of the positive electrode sheet 11 and the length direction of the negative electrode sheet 12 are parallel. The thickness direction X of the electrode assembly 10, the width direction of the electrode assembly 10 and the length direction of the electrode assembly 10 are perpendicular to each other in pairs. Y represents the width direction of the electrode assembly 10, and Z represents the length direction of the electrode assembly 10.

[0132] In the embodiment of the present application, the dimension of the positive electrode sheet 11 in the thickness direction of the battery cell 7 can be understood as the thickness of the positive electrode sheet 11. The dimension of the positive electrode sheet 11 in the length direction of the battery cell 7 can be understood as the length of the positive electrode sheet 11. The dimension of the positive electrode sheet 11 in the width direction of the battery cell 7 can be understood as the width of the positive electrode sheet 11. Figure 4 In it, the length of the positive current collector portion 112 is equal to the length of the positive electrode film layer 113. L1 can represent the length of the positive electrode film layer 113 or the length of the positive current collector portion 112. Figure 4 In it, the width of the positive current collector portion 112 is equal to the width of the positive electrode film layer 113. W2 can represent the width of the positive electrode film layer 113 or the width of the positive current collector portion 112.

[0133] In the embodiment of the present application, the dimension of the negative electrode sheet 12 in the thickness direction of the battery cell 7 can be understood as the thickness of the negative electrode sheet 12. The dimension of the negative electrode sheet 12 in the length direction of the battery cell 7 can be understood as the length of the negative electrode sheet 12. The dimension of the negative electrode sheet 12 in the width direction of the battery cell 7 can be understood as the width of the negative electrode sheet 12. Figure 5 In it, the length of the negative current collector portion 122 is equal to the length of the negative electrode film layer 123. L2 can represent the length of the negative electrode film layer 123 or the length of the negative current collector portion 122. Figure 5 In it, the width of the negative current collector portion 122 is equal to the width of the negative electrode film layer 123. W4 can represent the width of the negative electrode film layer 123 or the width of the negative current collector portion 122.

[0134] Both the positive electrode sheet 11 and the negative electrode sheet 12 have an impact on the energy density and fast charging performance of the battery cell 7. By improving the positive electrode sheet 11 and the negative electrode sheet 12, the energy density and fast charging performance of the battery cell 7 are improved. Specifically: The single-sided coating weight of the negative electrode film layer 123 is less than 74 mg / 1540.25 mm 2When the energy density of the battery cell 7 is small; the single-sided coating weight of the negative electrode film layer 123 is greater than 156 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 When the energy density of the battery cell 7 is improved, the migration path of active ions such as lithium ions in the negative electrode film layer 123 is long, which is not conducive to the fast charge and discharge of the battery cell 7; in the embodiment of the present application, the single-sided coating weight of the negative electrode film layer 123 is set to 74 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 to 156 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 ; which is conducive to balancing the fast charging performance and the energy density; When the ratio of the length to the width of the positive electrode film layer 113 is less than 4, the coating weight of the positive electrode film layer 113 is relatively small, and the energy density of the battery cell 7 is small. Increasing the ratio of the length to the width of the positive electrode film layer 113 so that the ratio of the length to the width of the positive electrode film layer 113 is less than or equal to 20, so that the length of the single battery is not too long, and the electron transmission path during the fast charging process is not too long, and the fast charging performance can be balanced while taking into account the energy density; however, as the ratio of the length to the width of the positive electrode film layer 113 further increases, the size difference between the length and the width of the positive electrode film layer 113 increases, which easily causes the current distribution in the positive electrode tab 11 to be uneven, resulting in inconsistent charging states of the positive electrode film layer 113 during the charging process, different lithium deintercalation speeds at different parts of the positive electrode film layer 113, and the lithium deintercalated from the positive electrode film layer 113 is embedded in the negative electrode tab 12, resulting in different lithium intercalation speeds in the negative electrode tab 12, which easily leads to lithium precipitation in the negative electrode tab 12; When the ratio of the length to the width of the positive electrode film layer 113 is less than or equal to 20, at least one side of the positive current collector 112 is provided with a positive electrode tab 111, and it is optional to provide positive electrode tabs 111 on both sides. The positive electrode tabs 111 can share the current with each other, and make the electron transmission path in the positive current collector 112 shorter and the current distribution more uniform. During the charging process, the positive active material at each part of the positive electrode tab 11 deintercalates lithium evenly; since at least one side of the negative current collector 122 is provided with a negative electrode tab 121, and it is optional to provide negative electrode tabs 121 on both sides. The negative electrode tabs 121 can share the current with each other, and make the electron transmission path in the negative current collector 122 shorter and the current distribution more uniform. The uniformly deintercalated lithium can be evenly embedded in the negative electrode tab 12, and the negative electrode tab 12 is not likely to precipitate lithium, and the single-sided coating weight of the negative electrode film layer 123 is 74 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 to 156 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 , and the migration path of lithium ions in the negative electrode film layer 123 is relatively short, which can improve the fast charging performance of the battery cell 7.

[0135] Thus, by coordinately regulating the ratio of the length to the width of the positive electrode film layer 113 and the single-sided coating weight of the negative electrode film layer 123, it is possible to balance the improvement of the energy density and the fast charging performance of the battery cell 7.

[0136] In the embodiment of the present application, the ratio of the length to the width of the positive electrode film layer 113 is 4 to 20, for example, 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5, 6, 6.5, 7, 7.5, 8, 8.5, 9, 9.5, 10, 10.5, 11, 11.5, 12, 12.5, 13, 13.5, 14, 14.5, 15, 15.5, 16, 16.5, 17, 17.5, 18, 18.5, 19, 19.5, 20 or a range composed of any two of the above values.

[0137] In the embodiment of the present application, the length of the positive electrode film layer 113 is 600 mm to 1200 mm. Exemplarily, the length of the positive electrode film layer 113 can be 600 mm, 650 mm, 700 mm, 750 mm, 800 mm, 850 mm, 900 mm, 950 mm, 1000 mm, 1050 mm, 1100 mm, 1150 mm, 1200 mm or a range composed of any two of the above values. The relatively long length of the positive electrode film layer 113 is beneficial to increasing the coating weight of the positive electrode film layer 113 and improving the energy density of the battery cell 7.

[0138] In some embodiments, the width of the positive electrode film layer 113 is 60 mm to 150 mm. Exemplarily, the width of the positive electrode film layer 113 can be 60 mm, 65 mm, 70 mm, 75 mm, 80 mm, 85 mm, 90 mm, 95 mm, 100 mm, 105 mm, 110 mm, 115 mm, 120 mm, 125 mm, 130 mm, 135 mm, 140 mm, 145 mm, 150 mm or a range composed of any two of the above values. The relatively short width of the positive electrode film layer 113 makes the transmission path of electrons in the width direction Y shorter, and can improve the uniformity of the current in the width direction Y.

[0139] The positive electrode tab 111 is disposed on at least one side of the positive electrode current collector portion 112.

[0140] In some embodiments, the positive electrode tab 111 may be disposed on at least one side of the positive electrode current collector 112 along the length direction Z. Optionally, the positive electrode tab 111 is disposed on both sides of the positive electrode current collector 112 along the length direction Z. Since the length of the positive electrode current collector 112 is greater than the width of the positive electrode current collector 112, the current transmission path in the length direction Z is relatively long, and the current distribution in the length direction Z is uneven. The positive electrode tab 111 is disposed on both sides of the positive electrode current collector 112 along the length direction Z, so that the current in the length direction Z of the positive electrode current collector 112 is evenly divided by the positive electrode tabs 111 on both sides, the electron transmission path is shorter, and the current distribution is more uniform. The delithiation state of each part of the positive electrode plate 11 is uniform, and the charging performance of the battery cell 7 can be improved. Figure 4 It shows that the positive electrode tab 111 is disposed on both sides of the positive electrode current collector 112 along the length direction Z. With the positive electrode tabs 111 disposed on both sides, the positive electrode tabs 111 can share the current with each other, and the electron transmission path in the positive electrode current collector 112 is shorter, and the current distribution is more uniform. During the charging process, the positive active material in each part of the positive electrode plate 11 is uniformly delithiated.

[0141] When the positive electrode tab 111 is disposed on at least one side of the positive electrode current collector 112 along the length direction Z, the number of positive electrode tabs 111 on the same side of the positive electrode current collector 112 may be at least one, such as one or at least two. When the number of positive electrode tabs 111 on the same side of the positive electrode current collector 112 is at least two, the at least two positive electrode tabs 111 can increase the current-carrying area, and can evenly divide the current, improving the current uniformity in the positive electrode plate 11, which is beneficial to further improving the fast charging performance of the battery cell 7.

[0142] In some embodiments, the number of positive electrode tabs 111 on the same side of the positive electrode current collector 112 is one or more. For example, all the positive electrode tabs 111 are located on the same side of the positive electrode current collector 112 along the length direction Z, or all the positive electrode tabs 111 are respectively arranged on both sides of the positive electrode current collector 112 along the length direction Z; the positive electrode tab 111 includes a first end face 1111 connected to the positive electrode current collector 112, the dimension of the first end face 1111 along the width direction Y is W1, the sum of the dimensions of all the first end faces 1111 on the same side of the positive electrode current collector 112 is n×W1, the width of the positive electrode current collector 112 is W2, and n×W1 / W2 is greater than or equal to 1 / 3 and less than or equal to 1, and may be optionally greater than or equal to 2 / 3 and less than 1. n represents the number of all the positive electrode tabs 111 on the same side of the positive electrode current collector 112, and n is greater than or equal to 1. For example, when the number of all the positive electrode tabs 111 on the same side of the positive electrode current collector 112 is 1, n is 1; when the number of all the positive electrode tabs 111 on the same side of the positive electrode current collector 112 is 2, n is 2.

[0143] Exemplarily, n×W1 / W2 is 1 / 3, 0.35, 0.4, 0.45, 0.5, 0.55, 0.6, 2 / 3, 0.7, 0.75, 0.8, 0.85, 0.9 or a range composed of any two of the above values.

[0144] When n×W1 / W2 satisfies the above range, the current-carrying area of the positive electrode tab 111 is relatively large, which is beneficial to improving the fast charging performance of the battery cell 7.

[0145] The negative electrode tab 121 is disposed on at least one side of the negative electrode current collector 122.

[0146] In some embodiments, the negative electrode tab 121 may be disposed on at least one side of the negative electrode current collector 122 along the length direction Z. Optionally, the negative electrode tab 121 is disposed on both sides of the negative electrode current collector 122 along the length direction Z. Since the length of the negative electrode current collector 122 is greater than the width of the negative electrode current collector 122, the current transmission path in the length direction Z is longer and the current distribution in the length direction Z is uneven. The negative electrode tab 121 is disposed on both sides of the negative electrode current collector 122 along the length direction Z, so that the current in the length direction Z of the negative electrode current collector 122 is evenly divided by the negative electrode tabs 121 on both sides, the electron transmission path is shorter, and the current distribution is more uniform. The lithium insertion state of each part of the negative electrode plate 12 is uniform, and the charging performance of the battery cell 7 can be improved. Figure 5 It shows that the negative electrode tab 121 is disposed on both sides of the negative electrode current collector 122 along the length direction Z.

[0147] When the negative electrode tab 121 is disposed on at least one side of the negative electrode current collector 122 along the length direction Z, the number of negative electrode tabs 121 on the same side of the negative electrode current collector 122 can be at least one, such as one or at least two. When the number of negative electrode tabs 121 on the same side of the negative electrode current collector 122 is at least two, the at least two negative electrode tabs 121 can increase the current-carrying area, and can evenly divide the current, improving the current uniformity in the negative electrode plate 12, which is beneficial to further improving the fast charging performance of the battery cell 7.

[0148] In some embodiments, there is one or more negative electrode tabs 121 on the same side of the negative electrode current collector 122. For example, all the negative electrode tabs 121 are on the same side of the negative electrode current collector 122 along the length direction Z, or all the negative electrode tabs 121 are respectively arranged on both sides of the negative electrode current collector 122 along the length direction Z; the negative electrode tab 121 includes a second end face 1211 connected to the negative electrode current collector 122, the dimension of the second end face 1211 along the width direction Y of the battery cell 7 is W3, the sum of the dimensions of all the second end faces 1211 on the same side of the negative electrode current collector 122 is m×W3, the width of the negative electrode current collector 122 is W4, m×W3 / W4 is greater than or equal to 1 / 3 and less than or equal to 1, and can be optionally greater than or equal to 2 / 3 and less than 1. m represents the number of all the negative electrode tabs 121 on the same side of the negative electrode current collector 122. For example, m is greater than or equal to 1. When the number of all the negative electrode tabs 121 on the same side of the negative electrode current collector 122 is 1, m is 1; when the number of all the negative electrode tabs 121 on the same side of the negative electrode current collector 122 is 2, m is 2.

[0149] Exemplarily, m×W3 / W4 is 1 / 3, 0.35, 0.4, 0.45, 0.5, 0.55, 0.6, 2 / 3, 0.7, 0.75, 0.8, 0.85, 0.9 or a range composed of any two of the above values.

[0150] When m×W3 / W4 satisfies the above range, the current-carrying area of the negative electrode tab 121 is relatively large, which is beneficial to improving the fast charging performance of the battery cell 7.

[0151] As Figure 6 shown, in some embodiments, the positive electrode tab 111 can be arranged on at least one side of the positive electrode current collector 112 along the width direction Y, such as one side or both sides; optionally, the positive electrode tab 111 can be arranged on one side of the positive electrode current collector 112 along the width direction Y. When the positive electrode current collector 112 is arranged on one side of the positive electrode tab 111 along the width direction Y, the electron transmission path in the positive electrode current collector 112 is shorter, the current distribution is more uniform, and during the charging process, the lithium deintercalation of the positive active material at each part of the positive electrode plate 11 is uniform.

[0152] In the case where the positive electrode tab 111 is arranged on at least one side of the positive electrode current collector 112 along the width direction Y, there is one or more positive electrode tabs 111 on the same side of the positive electrode current collector 112. The positive electrode tab 111 includes a third end face 1112 connected to the positive electrode current collector 112, and the dimension of the third end face 1112 along the length direction Z is L 10 , the sum of the dimensions of all the third end faces 1112 on the same side of the positive electrode current collector 112 along the length direction Z is s×L 10 , the dimension of the positive electrode current collector 112 along the length direction Z is L1, s×L 10 / L1 is greater than or equal to 1 / 3, optionally greater than or equal to 2 / 3 and less than 1, and s represents the number of all the positive electrode tabs 111 on the same side of the positive electrode current collector 112.

[0153] Exemplarily, s×L 10 / L1 is 1 / 3, 0.35, 0.4, 0.45, 0.5, 0.55, 0.6, 2 / 3, 0.7, 0.75, 0.8, 0.85, 0.9 or a range composed of any two of the above values.

[0154] s×L 10 When / L1 satisfies the above range, the current-carrying area of the positive electrode tab 111 is relatively large, which is beneficial to improving the fast charging performance of the battery cell 7.

[0155] Such as Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the negative electrode tab 121 is disposed on at least one side of the negative electrode current collector 122 along the width direction Y, for example, one side or both sides; optionally, the negative electrode tab 121 is disposed on one side of the negative electrode current collector 122 along the width direction Y, so that the electron transmission path in the negative electrode current collector 122 is shorter, the current distribution is more uniform, and lithium deposition is not likely to occur.

[0156] When the negative electrode tab 121 is disposed on at least one side of the negative electrode current collector 122 along the width direction Y, the number of negative electrode tabs 121 on the same side of the negative electrode current collector 122 is one or more. The negative electrode tab 121 includes a fourth end face 1212 connected to the negative electrode current collector 122, and the dimension of the fourth end face 1212 along the length direction Z is L 20 , and the sum of the dimensions of all the fourth end faces 1212 on the same side of the negative electrode current collector 122 along the length direction Z is p×L 20 , the dimension of the negative electrode current collector 122 along the length direction Z is L2, p×L 20 / L2 is greater than or equal to 1 / 3, optionally greater than or equal to 2 / 3 and less than 1, and p represents the number of all the negative electrode tabs 121 on the same side of the negative electrode current collector 122.

[0157] Exemplarily, p×L 20 / L2 is 1 / 3, 0.35, 0.4, 0.45, 0.5, 0.55, 0.6, 2 / 3, 0.7, 0.75, 0.8, 0.85, 0.9 or a range composed of any two of the above values.

[0158] p×L 20 When / L2 satisfies the above range, the current-carrying area of the negative electrode tab 121 is relatively large, which is beneficial to improving the fast charging performance of the battery cell 7.

[0159] Such as Figure 8As shown, in some embodiments, along the length direction Z of the battery cell 7, the size of the negative electrode film layer 123 is larger than that of the positive electrode film layer 113, and the difference between the size of the negative electrode film layer 123 and the size of the positive electrode film layer 113 is OH 1 , OH 1 is 0.5 mm to 3.0 mm, such as 0.5 mm, 0.8 mm, 1 mm, 1.2 mm, 1.5 mm, 1.8 mm, 2 mm, 2.2 mm, 2.5 mm, 2.8 mm, 3.0 mm or the range composed of any two of the above values. Along the length direction Z, both sides of the negative electrode film layer 123 extend beyond the positive electrode film layer 113, and each side extends beyond OH 1 / 2, that is, half of the size of OH 1 , and OH Figure 8 / 2 is shown in 1 .

[0160] In some embodiments, along the width direction Y of the battery cell 7, the size of the negative electrode film layer 123 is larger than that of the positive electrode film layer 113, and the difference between the size of the negative electrode film layer 123 and the size of the positive electrode film layer 113 is OH 2 , OH 2 is 0.5 mm to 3.0 mm, such as 0.5 mm, 0.8 mm, 1 mm, 1.2 mm, 1.5 mm, 1.8 mm, 2 mm, 2.2 mm, 2.5 mm, 2.8 mm, 3.0 mm or the range composed of any two of the above values. Along the width direction Y, both sides of the negative electrode film layer 123 extend beyond the positive electrode film layer 113, and each side extends beyond OH 2 / 2, that is, half of the size of OH 2 , and OH Figure 8 / 2 is shown in 2 .

[0161] In some embodiments, the positive electrode tab 111 is connected to both sides of the positive electrode current collector 112 along the length direction Z, the negative electrode tab 121 is connected to both sides of the negative electrode current collector 122 along the length direction Z. Along the length direction Z of the battery cell 7, the size of the negative electrode film layer 123 is larger than that of the positive electrode film layer 113, and the difference between the size of the negative electrode film layer 123 and the size of the positive electrode film layer 113 is OH 1 ; along the width direction Y of the battery cell 7, the size of the negative electrode film layer 123 is larger than that of the positive electrode film layer 113, and the difference between the size of the negative electrode film layer 123 and the size of the positive electrode film layer 113 is OH 2 , OH 1 is larger than OH 2 . Figure 8 The positive electrode tab 111 and the negative electrode tab 121 are not shown in

[0162] The negative electrode tab 121 is located on both sides of the negative electrode current collector portion 122 along the length direction Z. The width of the negative electrode current collector portion 122 is greater than the width of the negative electrode tab 121, so that the current-carrying area of the negative electrode current collector portion 122 is greater than the current-carrying area of the negative electrode tab 121. Due to the different current-carrying areas, the current density in the connection region between the negative electrode tab 121 and the negative electrode current collector portion 122 increases sharply, and problems such as lithium deposition are more likely to occur in this region; while in the embodiment of the present application, OH 1 is greater than OH 2 , so that the ability of the negative electrode film layer 123 to receive lithium ions is stronger in the length direction Z, especially the ability of the region of the negative electrode film layer 123 close to the negative electrode tab 121 to receive lithium ions can be improved, the risk of lithium deposition is reduced, and the use reliability of the battery cell 7 is improved.

[0163] In some other embodiments, the positive electrode tab 111 is connected to one side of the positive electrode current collector portion 112 along the width direction Y, and the negative electrode tab 121 is connected to one side of the negative electrode current collector portion 122 along the width direction Y. Along the width direction Y of the electrode assembly 10, the size of the negative electrode film layer 123 is greater than the size of the positive electrode film layer 113, and the difference between the size of the negative electrode film layer 123 and the size of the positive electrode film layer 113 is OH 2 ; along the length direction Z of the electrode assembly 10, the size of the negative electrode film layer 123 is greater than the size of the positive electrode film layer 113, and the difference between the size of the negative electrode film layer 123 and the size of the positive electrode film layer 113 is OH 1 , OH 2 is greater than OH 1 . Of course, OH 1 can also be greater than OH 2 .

[0164] The negative electrode tab 121 is located on one side of the negative electrode current collector portion 122 along the width direction Y. The length of the negative electrode current collector portion 122 is greater than the length of the negative electrode tab 121, so that the current-carrying area of the negative electrode current collector portion 122 is greater than the current-carrying area of the negative electrode tab 121. Due to the different current-carrying areas, the current density in the connection region between the negative electrode tab 121 and the negative electrode current collector portion 122 increases sharply, and problems such as lithium deposition are more likely to occur in this region; while in the embodiment of the present application, OH 2 is greater than OH 1 , so that the ability of the negative electrode film layer 123 to receive lithium ions is stronger in the width direction Y, especially the ability of the region of the negative electrode film layer 123 close to the negative electrode tab 121 to receive lithium ions can be improved, the risk of lithium deposition is reduced, and the use reliability of the battery cell 7 is improved.

[0165] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 9 together. In some embodiments, the battery cell 7 may include a housing 20.

[0166] In some embodiments, the housing 20 of the battery cell 7 can be a hard shell, such as a hard plastic shell, an aluminum shell, a steel shell, etc. The housing 20 of the battery cell 7 can also be a soft package, such as a pouch soft package. The material of the soft package can be plastic, such as at least one of polypropylene (PP), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), and polybutylene succinate (PBS).

[0167] The housing 20 is a hollow structure, and the housing 20 can be used to encapsulate the above-mentioned electrode assembly 10 and electrolyte.

[0168] The preparation method of the battery cell 7 according to the embodiments of the present application is well-known. In some embodiments, the positive electrode sheet, the separator, the negative electrode sheet, and the electrolyte can be assembled to form the battery cell 7. As an example, the positive electrode sheet, the separator, and the negative electrode sheet can be formed into the electrode assembly 10 through a lamination process, the electrode assembly 10 is placed in the housing 20, the electrolyte is injected after drying, and through processes such as vacuum packaging, standing, formation, and shaping, the battery cell 7 is obtained.

[0169] In some embodiments, the housing 20 includes a housing body 21 and an end cover 22. The housing body 21 has an opening, and the end cover 22 covers the opening.

[0170] The shape of the housing body 21 can be determined according to the specific shape of the electrode assembly 10. For example, if the electrode assembly 10 is a cylindrical structure, a cylindrical housing can be selected; if the electrode assembly 10 is a cuboid structure, a cuboid housing can be selected.

When the thickness of the housing body 21 is within the above range, the housing body 21 has high mechanical strength, which can improve the use reliability and cycle performance of the battery cell 7, and the housing body 21 occupies less space and there is more internal space in the housing body 21, which is beneficial to improving the energy density of the battery cell 7.

[0174] In some embodiments, the thickness of the first housing part 211 is from 0.1 mm to 0.5 mm, and optionally from 0.2 mm to 0.35 mm. The thickness of the first housing part 211 is relatively thin, and the space occupied by the housing 21 is less, which can further improve the energy density of the battery cell 7.

[0175] In some embodiments, the thickness of the second housing part 212 is from 0.1 mm to 0.5 mm, and optionally from 0.2 mm to 0.35 mm. In some embodiments, the thickness of the first housing part 211 is greater than or equal to the thickness of the second housing part 212. In some other embodiments, the thickness of the first housing part 211 is less than the thickness of the second housing part 212.

[0176] In some embodiments, the base material of the housing 21 includes steel. Steel has relatively high mechanical strength and is not easily deformed, which can improve the use reliability and cycle performance of the battery cell. In the embodiments of the present application, the base material refers to the material with the highest proportion in the housing 21.

[0182] In some embodiments, the battery cell 7 further includes a negative terminal 32, and the negative terminal 32 is electrically connected to the negative electrode tab 121. Optionally, the negative terminal 32 and the negative electrode tab 121 are welded. The negative terminal 32 and the negative electrode tab 121 can be connected through an adapter, or an adapter may not be used; optionally, an adapter is not used between the negative terminal 32 and the negative electrode tab 121, that is, the negative terminal 32 and the negative electrode tab 121 are directly welded, which can reduce the resistance at the connection and is beneficial to reducing the overall internal resistance of the battery cell 7.

[0183] Optionally, the number of negative terminals 32 is at least one, and can be at least two. For example, when there are two negative terminals 32, the two negative terminals 32 are respectively located on both sides of the negative electrode current collector part. Exemplarily, the battery cell 7 includes two positive terminals 31 and two negative terminals 32. The two positive terminals 31 are respectively located on both sides of the positive electrode current collector part, and the two negative terminals 32 are respectively located on both sides of the negative electrode current collector part. It can be understood that there is one positive terminal 31 and one negative terminal 32 on one side of the battery cell 7, and there is one positive terminal 31 and one negative terminal 32 on the other side. Figure 9 shows that the battery cell 7 includes two positive terminals 31 and two negative terminals 32.

[0185] Further optionally, the current-carrying area of a single negative terminal 32 is greater than or equal to 200 mm 2 , and may be 200 mm 2 to 800 mm 2 . The current-carrying area of the negative terminal 32 can be understood as the cross-sectional area of the negative terminal 32, and this cross-section is perpendicular to the thickness direction of the negative terminal 32.

[0187] [Positive electrode tab] The positive electrode tab includes a positive current collector portion and a positive electrode film layer provided on at least one surface of the positive current collector portion and including a positive electrode active material. For example, the positive current collector portion has two surfaces opposite to each other in its own thickness direction, and the positive electrode film layer is provided on any one or both of the two opposite surfaces of the positive current collector portion.

[0188] The upper charge limit voltage and the lower discharge cut-off voltage of the battery cell are different according to the different positive electrode active materials. For example, when the phosphate material includes lithium iron phosphate, the upper charge limit voltage can be 3.65 V and the lower discharge cut-off voltage can be 2.0 V. Also, for example, when the phosphate material includes lithium manganese iron phosphate, the upper charge limit voltage can be 4.3 V and the lower discharge cut-off voltage can be 2.0 V. Next, taking the upper charge limit voltage of 3.65 V and the lower discharge cut-off voltage of 2.0 V as an example, the state of the battery cell will be described: In the embodiments of the present application, the 100% state of charge (SOC) and the 0% state of charge (SOC) of the battery cell are defined as follows, Charge the battery cell at a constant current charge rate of 0.33C to the upper charge voltage, then charge it at a constant voltage to 0.05C, corresponding to the state of 100% SOC of the battery cell. Discharge the battery cell at a constant current discharge rate of 0.33C to the cut-off voltage, corresponding to the state of 0% SOC of the battery cell.

[0189] In some embodiments, when the battery cell is at 100% state of charge (SOC), the tap density of the positive electrode film layer is 2.50 g / cm 3 to 2.80 g / cm 3 ; optionally 2.55 g / cm 3 to 2.70 g / cm 3 . Exemplarily, when the battery cell is at 100% state of charge (SOC), the tap density of the positive electrode film layer is 2.50 g / cm 3 , 2.52 g / cm 3 , 2.55 g / cm 3 , 2.56 g / cm 3 , 2.57 g / cm 3 , 2.58 g / cm 3 , 2.60 g / cm 3 , 2.62 g / cm 3 , 2.65 g / cm 3 , 2.68 g / cm 3 , 2.70 g / cm 3 , 2.72 g / cm 3 , 2.75 g / cm 3 , 2.78 g / cm 3 , 2.80 g / cm 3 or a range composed of any two of the above values.

[0190] When the tap density of the positive electrode film layer is within the above range, it is beneficial to improve the energy density of the battery cell; and since the positive active material in the positive electrode film layer is stacked relatively tightly and the contact resistance between particles is small, it can further reduce the resistance of the electrode sheet, thereby reducing heat generation during fast charging. Therefore, by adjusting the tap density of the positive electrode film layer to a reasonable range, the battery cell has both high energy density and high charging rate performance.

[0191] In some embodiments, the single-sided coating weight of the positive electrode film layer is 160 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 to 340 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 . Exemplarily, the single-sided coating weight of the positive electrode film layer is 160 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 , 170 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 , 180 mg / 1540.25 mm 2, 190 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 , 200 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 , 210 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 , 220 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 , 230 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 , 240 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 , 250 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 , 260 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 , 270 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 , 280 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 , 290 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 , 300 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 , 310 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 , 320 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 , 330 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 , 340 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 Or a range composed of any two of the above values.

[0192] When the single-sided coating weight of the positive electrode film layer is within the above range, the heat generation amount per unit area of the positive electrode plate will not be too large, and it can balance the improvement of the energy density and charging rate performance of the battery cell.

[0193] In the embodiments of the present application, the compaction density of the positive electrode film layer of the battery cell in the 100% state of charge (SOC) has the meaning well known in the art, that is, the positive electrode plate is disassembled from the battery cell in the 100% state of charge (SOC), and the compaction density of the positive electrode film layer is measured. For example, for a single-sided coated positive electrode plate (if it is a double-sided coated plate, one side of the positive electrode film layer can be wiped off first), it is punched into small round pieces with an area of S1, weighed, recorded as M1, and its thickness H1 is measured. Then, the positive electrode film layer of the above weighed positive electrode plate is wiped off, the weight of the positive electrode current collector is weighed, recorded as M0, and its thickness H0 is measured. The single-sided coating weight of the positive electrode film layer = (the weight M1 of the positive electrode plate - the weight M0 of the positive electrode current collector) / S1, the thickness of the positive electrode film layer = the thickness H1 of the positive electrode plate - the thickness H0 of the positive electrode current collector, and the compaction density of the positive electrode film layer = the single-sided coating weight of the positive electrode film layer / the thickness of the positive electrode film layer.

[0194] In some embodiments, the powder resistivity of the positive electrode active material is from 1 Ω·cm to 27.5 Ω·cm, optionally less than or equal to 20 Ω·cm, and optionally less than or equal to 11 Ω·cm. Exemplarily, the powder resistivity of the positive electrode active material can be 27.5 Ω·cm, 20 Ω·cm, 19 Ω·cm, 18 Ω·cm, 17 Ω·cm, 16 Ω·cm, 15 Ω·cm, 14 Ω·cm, 13 Ω·cm, 12 Ω·cm, 11 Ω·cm, 10 Ω·cm, 9 Ω·cm, 8 Ω·cm, 7 Ω·cm, 6 Ω·cm, 5 Ω·cm, 4 Ω·cm, 3 Ω·cm, 2 Ω·cm, 1 Ω·cm or the range composed of any two of the above values.

[0195] The relatively low powder resistivity of the positive electrode active material results in a relatively low resistance of the positive electrode sheet and less heat generation of the battery cell.

[0196] In the embodiments of the present application, the powder resistivity of the material has the meaning well-known in the art and can be detected by the methods and equipment well-known in the art. For example, according to the test standard GB / T30835-2014, a PRCD1100 powder resistivity meter is used for testing.

[0197] In some embodiments, the powder compaction density of the positive electrode active material under 30000 N is greater than or equal to 2.46 g / cm 3 , optionally 2.46 g / cm 3 to 2.8 g / cm 3 . Exemplarily, the powder compaction density of the positive electrode active material under 30000 N is 2.46 g / cm 3 , 2.47 g / cm 3 , 2.48 g / cm 3 , 2.49 g / cm 3 , 2.5 g / cm 3 , 2.51 g / cm 3 , 2.55 g / cm 3 , 2.58 g / cm 3 , 2.60 g / cm 3 , 2.65 g / cm 3 , 2.68 g / cm 3 , 2.70 g / cm 3 , 2.72 g / cm 3 , 2.75 g / cm 3 , 2.78 g / cm 3 , 2.80 g / cm 3 or the range composed of any two of the above values.

[0198] When the powder compaction density of the positive electrode active material is within the above range under 30000N, the energy density of the battery cell can be improved. Moreover, since the positive electrode active materials in the positive electrode film layer can be stacked more closely, the contact resistance between particles is small, which can further reduce the resistance of the electrode sheet, thereby reducing heat generation.

[0199] In the embodiments of the present application, the powder compaction density of the material has the meaning well-known in the art, and can be detected by methods and equipment well-known in the art. Detection is carried out according to the test standard GB / T24533-2009. For example, a certain amount of positive electrode active material is taken as a sample and added to a mold with a bottom area of 1.327 cm 2 in the UTM7305 type electronic pressure testing machine, pressurize to 3000 kg (equivalent to 30000N), keep the pressure for 30 s, then release the pressure, keep for 10 s, and then record and calculate the powder compaction density of the positive electrode active material under the action of 30000N.

[0200] In some embodiments, the charging specific capacity of the positive electrode active material at a 0.1C rate is 150 mAh / g to 170 mAh / g. Exemplarily, the charging specific capacity of the positive electrode active material at a 0.1C rate is 150 mAh / g, 151 mAh / g, 152 mAh / g, 153 mAh / g, 154 mAh / g, 155 mAh / g, 156 mAh / g, 157 mAh / g, 158 mAh / g, 159 mAh / g, 160 mAh / g, 161 mAh / g, 162 mAh / g, 163 mAh / g, 164 mAh / g, 165 mAh / g, 166 mAh / g, 167 mAh / g, 168 mAh / g, 169 mAh / g, 170 mAh / g or the range composed of any two of the above values.

[0201] When the charging specific capacity of the positive electrode active material at a 0.1C rate is within the above range, the energy density of the battery cell is relatively high.

[0202] In the embodiments of the present application, the specific capacity of the active material has the meaning well-known in the art, and can be tested by equipment and methods well-known in the art. The test method of the first coulomb efficiency and the first discharge specific capacity in Appendix G of the national standard GB / T 24533-2019 can be adopted. Using metallic lithium as the negative electrode and the sample electrode sheet containing the above materials as the positive electrode, a half-button cell is assembled. Under the condition of 23°C ± 2°C, the half-button cell is placed on a battery tester or other test equipment with the same performance, and the discharge capacity is obtained through charge and discharge at a 0.1C rate, and then the capacity is divided by the mass of the active material of the electrode sheet to obtain the charging specific capacity parameter.

[0203] In some embodiments, the mass percentage of the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure in the positive electrode active material can be greater than or equal to 80% and less than or equal to 100%. It can be considered that the positive electrode active material of the present application is a lithium-containing phosphate system with an olivine structure. When the mass percentage of the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure is less than 100%, the positive electrode active material can also include common positive electrode active materials, for example, it can include but is not limited to at least one of lithium-containing transition metal oxides. Examples of the lithium-containing transition metal oxides can include but are not limited to at least one of lithium cobalt oxide, lithium nickel oxide, lithium manganese oxide, lithium nickel cobalt oxide, lithium manganese cobalt oxide, lithium nickel manganese oxide, lithium nickel cobalt manganese oxide, lithium nickel cobalt aluminum oxide, and their respective modified compounds.

[0204] Optionally, the mass percentage of the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure in the positive electrode active material is 100%.

[0205] In the embodiments of the present application, the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure can be phosphate particles or a material obtained by coating and modifying them. For example, the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure includes phosphate particles and a coating layer. The coating layer is coated on the surface of the phosphate particles, and the coating layer contains one or more elements of C, Fe, Ti, Zr, Hf, Ge, and Sn.

[0206] By coating the surface of the phosphate particles with a coating layer, the conductivity of the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure can be improved, the powder resistivity of the material can be reduced, and it is beneficial to the migration rate of lithium ions, improving the fast charging ability of the battery and reducing the heat generation of the battery cell.

[0207] In some embodiments, the phosphate particles include a compound with the general formula Li x1 A y1 Me a M b P 1-c X c Y z where 0.5 ≤ x 1 ≤ 1.3, 0 ≤ y 1 ≤ 1.3, and 0.9 ≤ x 1 + y 1≤1.3, 0.9 ≤ a ≤ 1.5, 0 ≤ b ≤ 0.5, and 0.9 ≤ a + b ≤ 1.5, 0 ≤ c ≤ 0.5, 3 ≤ z ≤ 5, A includes one or more of Na, K, and Mg, Me includes one or more of Mn, Fe, Co, and Ni, M includes one or more of B, Mg, Al, Si, P, S, Ca, Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Cu, Zn, Sr, Y, Zr, Nb, Mo, Cd, Sn, Sb, Te, Ba, Ta, W, Yb, La, and Ce, X includes one or more of S, Si, Cl, B, C, and N, and Y includes one or more of O and F. The cyclic stability of the phosphate particles is relatively excellent, which is beneficial to improving the cyclic performance of the battery cell.

[0208] Exemplarily, the phosphate particles include LiFePO 4 , LiMnPO 4 , LiNiPO 4 , LiCoPO 4 or one or more of them. During the charge and discharge process of the battery cell, the insertion and extraction and consumption of active ions such as Li will occur, and the molar content of Li is different when the battery cell is discharged to different states. Regarding the positive electrode active materials LiFePO 4 , LiMnPO 4 , LiNiPO 4 , LiCoPO 4 etc., the molar content of Li is the initial state of the material, that is, the state before feeding. When the positive electrode active material is applied to the battery system and undergoes charge and discharge cycles, the molar content of Li may change. In the embodiments of the present application regarding the positive electrode active materials LiFePO 4 , LiMnPO 4 , LiNiPO 4 , LiCoPO 4 etc., the molar content of oxygen O is only the theoretical state value. The release of oxygen from the crystal lattice will cause the molar content of oxygen O to change. Actually, the molar content of oxygen O will show fluctuations, and all the above situations are within the protection scope of the present application.

[0209] In some embodiments, the coating layer includes a fast ion conductor with the general formula Li 3-d Fe 2-d M2 d (PO x2 ) y2 , M2 includes one or more elements of Ti, Zr, Hf, Ge, and Sn, 0 ≤ d ≤ 1, 0 < x 2 <5, 0 < y 2 <4.

[0210] Exemplarily, the fast ion conductor is a material having a NASICON structure, such as including lithium iron titanium phosphate Li 2 FeTi(PO 4 ) 3 , lithium iron zirconium phosphate Li 2 FeZr(PO 4 ) 3 , lithium iron tin phosphate Li 2 FeSn(PO 4 ) 3 or one or more of them.

[0211] The fast ion conductor having a NASICON structure is a material with ultrafast ion conduction ability, having rich three-dimensional lithium ion diffusion and transport channels, and having advantages such as high ion conduction efficiency and strong structural stability during multiple de-lithiation and intercalation processes. Coating the surface of phosphate particles with a fast ion conductor containing a NASICON structure can significantly improve the transport rate of lithium ions during multiple de / intercalation at the positive electrode, improve the ionic conductivity of the positive electrode active material, improve the fast charging ability of the battery monomer, and in addition, can also improve the specific capacity and the energy density of the corresponding battery monomer.

[0212] In some embodiments, the coating layer further includes elemental carbon.

[0213] The elemental carbon and the fast ion conductor can be arranged in layers. For example, the elemental carbon serves as an independent carbon coating layer, and the fast ion conductor serves as an independent fast ion conductor layer. The carbon coating layer can be coated on the surface of the phosphate particles, and the fast ion conductor layer is located on the surface of the carbon coating layer, that is, the fast ion conductor layer is located on the side of the carbon coating layer away from the phosphate particles. Or, the fast ion conductor layer can be coated on the surface of the phosphate particles, and the carbon coating layer is located on the surface of the fast ion conductor layer, that is, the carbon coating layer is located on the side of the fast ion conductor layer away from the phosphate particles. Of course, the elemental carbon and the fast ion conductor can also be arranged in the same layer.

[0214] Optionally, the carbon coating layer can be formed by carbonizing an organic carbon source (such as glucose, polyethylene glycol, etc.) on the surface of the fast ion conductor layer. The carbon coating layer can partially coat the fast ion conductor layer or can completely coat the fast ion conductor layer. The setting of the carbon coating layer can significantly improve the electronic conductivity of the phosphate particles, make up for the defect of poor electronic conduction performance of the phosphate particles, and improve the energy density of the battery monomer. Specifically, the setting of the carbon coating layer endows the positive electrode active material of the present application with the following advantages: The carbon coating layer in the positive electrode active material of the present application provides a suitable channel for the transport of electrons, can significantly improve the conduction rate of electrons during multiple de-lithiation and intercalation processes, improve the electronic conductivity of the lithium-containing phosphate, improve the charging ability of the corresponding battery monomer, and can also improve the energy density.

[0215] The carbon coating layer of the positive electrode active material of the present application is loose and porous, enabling the electrolyte to come into full and effective contact with the lithium-containing phosphate, thereby enhancing the lithium-ion transport rate at the phase interface and improving the charging capacity of the battery cell.

[0216] Coating a layer of carbon coating on the surface of the lithium-containing phosphate can not only improve the electrical conductivity of the lithium-containing phosphate but also enhance the structural stability of the positive electrode active material, effectively alleviating the iron dissolution phenomenon of the positive electrode active material during long-term storage and cyclic use of the battery cell, thereby improving the cycle life of the battery cell. The positive electrode active material of the present application is based on lithium-containing phosphate, giving full play to the advantages of low cost, high use reliability, and good cycle stability of the lithium-containing phosphate. At the same time, the coating layers (fast ion conductor layer and carbon coating layer) are used to solve the drawbacks of poor electronic and ionic conductivities. The battery cell prepared from the positive electrode active material of the present application can improve the energy density of the battery cell on the premise of excellent cycle performance. In the embodiments of the present application, the content of elements in the positive electrode active material has the meaning well-known in the art and can be detected by equipment and methods well-known in the art. For example, referring to EPA 6010D-2014, it is tested by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry and determined by inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES, instrument model: Thermo ICAP7400). After discharging the battery cell to 0% state of charge (SOC) and disassembling the positive electrode plate, it is washed with DMC and dried, then impurities are removed by high-temperature calcination. After weighing 0.4 g of the positive electrode active material, 10 ml (50% concentration) of aqua regia is added thereto. Then it is placed on a flat plate at 180 °C for 30 min. After digestion on the flat plate, it is made up to a volume of 100 mL, and quantitative testing is carried out by the standard curve method.

[0217] In some embodiments, the graphitization degree of the positive electrode active material is from 0.15 to 0.32, and can be optionally from 0.19 to 0.26. Exemplarily, the graphitization degree of the positive electrode active material is 0.15, 0.16, 0.17, 0.18, 0.19, 0.20, 0.21, 0.22, 0.23, 0.24, 0.25, 0.26, 0.27, 0.28, 0.29, 0.30, 0.31, 0.32 or a range composed of any two of the above values.

[0218] When the graphitization degree of the positive electrode active material is within the above range, it is beneficial to improve the electrical conductivity of the positive electrode active material, reduce the heat generation of the positive electrode plate, and thus reduce the heat generation of the battery cell.

[0219] In the embodiments of the present application, the higher the graphitization degree of the material, the lower the degree of disorder. The test can be carried out according to the general rules of X-ray diffraction analysis method in JIS / K 0131-1996 test standard.

[0220] In some embodiments, the mass content of carbon element in the lithium-containing phosphate with olivine structure is 1% to 2%, and the specific surface area of the lithium-containing phosphate with olivine structure is 5m 2 / g to 18m 2 / g.

[0221] Optionally, the mass content of carbon element in the lithium-containing phosphate with olivine structure is 1% to 2%, and the specific surface area of the lithium-containing phosphate with olivine structure is 7.5m 2 / g to 14m 2 / g.

[0222] Exemplarily, the mass content of carbon element in the lithium-containing phosphate with olivine structure is 1%, 1.1%, 1.2%, 1.3%, 1.4%, 1.5%, 1.6%, 1.7%, 1.8%, 1.9%, 2% or the range composed of any two of the above values.

[0223] Exemplarily, the specific surface area of the lithium-containing phosphate with olivine structure is 5m 2 / g, 6m 2 / g, 7m 2 / g, 8m 2 / g, 9m 2 / g, 10m 2 / g, 11m 2 / g, 12m 2 / g, 13m 2 / g, 14m 2 / g, 15m 2 / g, 16m 2 / g, 17m 2 / g, 18m 2 / g or the range composed of any two of the above values.

[0224] The carbon element mainly exists in the coating layer in the form of a carbon coating layer. The carbon coating layer is loose and porous, which is beneficial to increasing the specific surface area of the material, more beneficial to the effective contact between the electrolyte and the phosphate particles, and beneficial to the transport of lithium ions at the phase interface. In addition, when the mass content of the carbon element is within the above range, the conductivity of the lithium-containing phosphate with olivine structure can be significantly improved, which is beneficial to enhancing the ionic conductivity and electronic conductivity of the lithium-containing phosphate with olivine structure, and can improve the rapid charging ability and energy density of the battery cell.

[0225] In the embodiments of the present application, the specific surface area of the material has the meaning well-known in the art and can be detected by the equipment and methods well-known in the art. For example, it can be detected according to the test standard GB / T 19587-2017. Taking the positive electrode active material as a sample, the specific surface area is tested by a Tri-Star 3020 specific surface area and pore size analyzer of Micromeritics Company in the United States.

[0226] In some embodiments, the volume distribution particle size of the positive electrode active material satisfies: 1 µm ≤ Dv50 ≤ 2 µm, 0.4 µm ≤ Dv10 ≤ 0.7 µm.

[0227] Exemplarily, Dv50 of the positive electrode active material can be 1 µm, 1.1 µm, 1.15 µm, 1.2 µm, 1.25 µm, 1.3 µm, 1.35 µm, 1.4 µm, 1.45 µm, 1.5 µm, 1.55 µm, 1.6 µm, 1.65 µm, 1.7 µm, 1.75 µm, 1.8 µm, 1.85 µm, 1.9 µm, 1.95 µm, 2 µm or a range composed of any two of the above values.

[0228] Exemplarily, Dv10 of the positive electrode active material can be 0.4 µm, 0.45 µm, 0.5 µm, 0.55 µm, 0.6 µm, 0.65 µm, 0.7 µm or a range composed of any two of the above values.

[0229] The particle size of the positive electrode active material is relatively small, the lithium deintercalation / insertion path of lithium ions in the positive electrode active material is short, and the heat generation is less; moreover, the particle size of the above positive electrode active material is not too small and basically does not agglomerate during the processing and preparation process, making the performance of the positive electrode active material stable.

[0230] In the embodiments of the present application, the volume average particle size Dv50 of the material refers to the particle size corresponding to 50% in the volume distribution, and the volume average particle size Dv10 of the material refers to the particle size corresponding to 10% in the volume distribution. It can be detected by the equipment and methods well-known in the art. For example, taking the positive electrode active material as a sample, according to the test standard GB / T 19077-2016, the Dv50 and Dv10 of the particles are tested by a Mastersizer 2000E laser particle size analyzer.

[0231] When the positive electrode active material includes other materials in addition to the lithium phosphate with olivine structure, the volume distribution particle size of the positive electrode active material refers to the volume distribution particle size of all positive electrode active materials.

[0232] In some embodiments, the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure is granular, and the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure is composed of secondary particles formed by the aggregation of primary particles. The average particle size of the primary particles is from 200 nm to 500 nm. Exemplarily, the average particle size of the primary particles is 200 nm, 220 nm, 250 nm, 280 nm, 300 nm, 320 nm, 350 nm, 380 nm, 400 nm, 420 nm, 450 nm, 480 nm, 500 nm or a range composed of any two of the above values.

[0233] The average particle size of the primary particles is relatively small, the lithium deintercalation / insertion path of lithium ions in the cathode active material is short, and the heat generation is less.

[0234] In the embodiments of the present application, the primary particles and secondary particles are terms well known in the art. The secondary particles refer to agglomerated particles formed by the aggregation of two or more primary particles. The primary particles and secondary particles can be easily distinguished by experimental means (such as taking SEM images using a scanning electron microscope), and the average particle size of the primary particles can be obtained by testing in the SEM image. The SEM test parameters can be set as follows: the working voltage (EHT) is 10.00 kV, the InLens detector is used, the working distance is 4.6 mm, and the magnification is 1000X.

[0235] The cathode film layer usually includes a plurality of cathode active material particles, that is, the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure is a plurality of particles, and the particle sizes of the plurality of particles are different. The plurality of particles include the smallest particle and the largest particle. The smallest particle is the particle with the smallest particle size, and the largest particle is the particle with the largest particle size. By matching the large and small particles, the compaction density of the cathode film layer can be improved, and the pore structure of the cathode film layer can be increased, so that the fast charging performance of the battery cell is improved.

[0236] In some embodiments, the particle size of the smallest particle in the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure is from 0.1 μm to 0.4 μm. Exemplarily, 0.1 μm, 0.15 μm, 0.2 μm, 0.25 μm, 0.3 μm, 0.35 μm, 0.4 μm or a range composed of any two of the above values. When the particle size of the smallest particle is within the above range, agglomeration is not likely to occur during the preparation of the cathode film layer 113.

[0237] In some embodiments, the particle size of the largest particles in the lithium phosphate of olivine structure is 15 μm to 25 μm. Exemplarily, it can be 15 μm, 16 μm, 17 μm, 18 μm, 19 μm, 20 μm, 21 μm, 22 μm, 23 μm, 24 μm, 25 μm or the range composed of any two of the above values. When the particle size of the largest particles is within the above range, the migration path of lithium ions during charge and discharge will not be too long, which can improve the fast charge and discharge performance of the battery cell.

[0238] In some embodiments, the positive electrode film layer further includes one or more of ternary materials, lithium phosphate, lithium hydrogen phosphate, lithium sulfate, lithium sulfite, lithium molybdate, lithium oxalate, lithium titanate, lithium tetraborate, lithium metasilicate, lithium manganate, lithium tartrate, lithium citrate, lithium nickelate, and lithium ferrate. The above materials can be used as lithium supplement agents. The lithium supplement agent can supplement lithium ions for the positive electrode film layer, make up for the irreversible loss of lithium ions in the system, and improve the capacity, thereby improving the energy density of the battery cell.

[0239] Optionally, the ternary material includes Li x3 A y3 Ni a3 Co b3 Mn c M3 (1-a3-b3-c3) Y3 z3 where 0 < x 3 ≤2.1, 0 < y 3 ≤2.1, and 0.9 ≤ x 3 +y 3 ≤2.1, 0 ≤ a 3 ≤1, 0 ≤ b 3 ≤1, 0 ≤ c 3 ≤1, and 0.1 ≤ a 3 +b 3 +c 3 ≤1, 1.8 ≤ z 3 ≤3.5, A includes one or several of Na, K, and Mg, M3 includes one or several of B, Mg, Al, Si, P, S, Ca, Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Fe, Cu, Zn, Sr, Y, Zr, Nb, Mo, Cd, Sn, Sb, Te, Ba, Ta, W, Yb, La, Ce, and Y3 includes one or several of O and F.

[0241] In some embodiments, the mass content of the lithium supplement in the positive electrode film layer is 0.5% to 5%, such as 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, 2%, 2.5%, 3%, 3.5%, 4%, 4.5%, 5% or a range composed of any two of the above values. When the mass content of the lithium supplement is within the above range, it can supplement lithium ions to the positive electrode film layer, make up for the irreversible lithium ion loss in the system, and improve the capacity, thereby improving the energy density of the battery cell.

[0242] The lithium supplement can be in the same layer as the positive electrode active material or in different layers. When the lithium supplement and the positive electrode active material are in different layers, the lithium supplement can be in the lithium supplement layer and the positive electrode active material can be in the positive electrode active material layer.

[0250] In the embodiments of the present application, the thicknesses of the positive electrode film layer and the positive electrode current collector are of the meanings well-known in the art and can be detected by using the equipment and methods well-known in the art. For example, the thickness of the positive electrode plate is measured with a micrometer, the film layer on the surface of the positive electrode current collector is removed, and the thickness of the positive electrode current collector is measured with a micrometer. When the positive electrode film layer is coated on one side, the thickness of the positive electrode film layer is the thickness of the positive electrode plate minus the thickness of the positive electrode current collector.

[0251] The positive electrode film layer is usually formed by coating a positive electrode paste on the positive electrode current collector and then drying and cold pressing. The positive electrode paste is usually formed by dispersing a positive electrode active material, an optional conductive agent, an optional binder, and any other components in a solvent and stirring evenly. The solvent can be N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP), but is not limited thereto.

[0252] The positive electrode plate does not exclude other additional functional layers besides the positive electrode film layer.

[0259] Exemplarily, the positive electrode conductive agent includes one or more of superconducting carbon, conductive graphite, acetylene black, carbon black, Ketjen black, carbon dots, carbon nanotubes, graphene, and carbon nanofibers. The positive electrode conductive agent in the positive electrode conductive layer can improve the conductivity of the positive electrode conductive layer, thereby improving the conductivity of the positive electrode plate and reducing the heat generation of the battery cell.

[0260] Optionally, the mass content of the positive electrode binder in the positive electrode conductive layer is 50% to 70%. Exemplarily, 50%, 60%, 65%, 70% or a range composed of any two of the above values.

[0264] When the compaction density of the negative electrode film layer is within the above range, it is beneficial to improve the energy density of the battery cell; and since the negative electrode active materials in the negative electrode film layer are stacked relatively tightly, the contact resistance between particles is small, which can further reduce the resistance of the electrode sheet, thereby reducing heat generation.

[0265] In the embodiments of the present application, the compaction density of the negative electrode film layer of the battery cell in the 100% charged state has the meaning well known in the art, and can be detected by using the equipment and methods well known in the art.

[0267] When the single-sided coating weight of the negative electrode film layer is within the above range, the heat generation per unit area of the negative electrode plate will not be excessive, and the energy density of the battery cell can be improved while taking it into account.

[0270] The relatively low powder resistivity of the negative electrode active material results in a relatively low resistance of the negative electrode plate and less heat generation of the battery cell.

[0273] When the powder compaction density of the negative electrode active material is within the above range under 20,000 N, the energy density of the battery cell can be improved, and since the negative electrode active material in the negative electrode film layer can be stacked more closely, the contact resistance between particles is small, which can further reduce the resistance of the electrode sheet, thereby reducing heat generation.

[0274] In the embodiments of the present application, the powder compaction density of the material has the meaning well-known in the art, and can be detected by methods and equipment well-known in the art, and is detected according to the test standard GB / T24533-2009.

[0276] When the charging specific capacity of the negative electrode active material at a 0.1C rate is within the above range, the energy density of the battery cell is relatively high.

[0277] In the embodiments of the present application, the charging specific capacity of the negative electrode active material at a 0.1C rate has the meaning well-known in the art, and can be detected by equipment and methods well-known in the art, and its detection method is the same as the charging specific capacity test method of the positive electrode active material at a 0.1C rate described above.

In the present application, amorphous carbon refers to the product after carbonization treatment of an organic carbon source.

[0283] The artificial graphite includes secondary particles. In the artificial graphite, there are more migration paths for lithium ions, and the migration path in the primary particles is shorter, which can improve the migration rate of lithium ions. The carbon coating layer has more end faces and defects, so that the number of sites where lithium ions can be intercalated and deintercalated is larger, and the electrical conductivity of the carbon coating layer is excellent, which can reduce the internal resistance of the negative electrode sheet and the heat generation of the battery cell.

The carbon-based material in the second negative electrode film layer includes graphite particles. The graphite particles in the first negative electrode film layer and the graphite particles in the second negative electrode film layer can be the same or different.

[0311] When the volume average particle size Dv50 of the negative electrode active material in the second negative electrode film layer is within the above range, on the one hand, it can shorten the solid-phase transmission path of lithium ions and improve the fast charging performance. On the other hand, the material is not prone to agglomeration during the preparation process, which can improve the stability of the material. On the further hand, the cooperation of the negative electrode active material in the second negative electrode film layer with the volume average particle size range and the negative electrode active material in the first negative electrode film layer is beneficial to constructing the gradient pore difference between the second negative electrode film layer and the first negative electrode film layer, reducing the tortuosity of lithium ion transmission, and improving the fast charging performance of the battery cell.

The tapped density can reflect the packing density of the active material in the film layer. When the tapped density of the carbon-based material in the second negative electrode film layer is greater than that in the first negative electrode film layer, the second negative electrode film layer is packed more densely, improving the energy density of the battery cell. The first negative electrode film layer is relatively sparsely packed with richer pores, which can improve the fast charging performance of the battery cell. When the negative electrode active material includes graphite particles, the tapped density of the graphite particles in the first negative electrode film layer is less than or equal to the tapped density of the graphite particles in the second negative electrode film layer.

[0320] In the embodiments of the present application, for example, taking the upper limit voltage of battery charging as 3.65 V and the cut-off voltage of battery discharging as 2.0 V as an example for illustration, The specific steps of the BOL full charge test are as follows: At 25 °C, charge at a charging rate of 0.33 C of the battery nominal capacity to 3.65 V, then charge at a constant voltage of 3.65 V to 0.05 C, stand for 10 min, then discharge at a discharging rate of 0.33 C to 2.0 V, stand for 10 min. The above one charge and discharge is one cycle, and cycle 10 times. Then charge at a charging rate of 0.33 C of the nominal capacity to 3.65 V, and then charge at a constant voltage of 3.65 V to 0.05 C to obtain the BOL full charge state. In the BOL full charge state, disassemble the negative electrode plate, use a tomography electron microscope to observe the cross-section in the thickness direction of the middle area of the negative electrode plate, distinguish the two regions according to the interface between the first negative electrode film layer and the second negative electrode film layer, and measure the thickness of the two respectively. For example, measure the thickness at 10 positions of the first negative electrode film layer, calculate its average value as the average value of the first negative electrode film layer, measure the thickness at 10 positions of the second negative electrode film layer, and calculate its average value as the average value of the second negative electrode film layer.

[0321] In some embodiments, after the full charge test at the end of life (EOL) of the battery cell, the thickness of the first negative electrode film layer is 15 μm to 70 μm, such as 15 μm, 16 μm, 17 μm, 18 μm, 19 μm, 20 μm, 21 μm, 22 μm, 23 μm, 24 μm, 25 μm, 26 μm, 27 μm, 28 μm, 29 μm, 30 μm, 35 μm, 40 μm, 43 μm, 45 μm, 50 μm, 55 μm, 60 μm, 65 μm, 66 μm, 67 μm, 68 μm, 69 μm, 70 μm or the range composed of any two of the above values. When the thickness of the first negative electrode film layer is within the above range, the first negative electrode film layer and the second negative electrode film layer can regulate and increase the gradient pore difference between the upper and lower layers, reduce the tortuosity of lithium ion transport, and improve the fast charging ability of the battery cell.

[0322] In some embodiments, after the full charge test at the end of life (EOL) of the battery cell, the thickness of the second negative electrode film layer is 15 μm to 70 μm, such as 15 μm, 16 μm, 17 μm, 18 μm, 19 μm, 20 μm, 21 μm, 22 μm, 23 μm, 24 μm, 25 μm, 26 μm, 27 μm, 28 μm, 29 μm, 30 μm, 35 μm, 40 μm, 43 μm, 45 μm, 50 μm, 55 μm, 60 μm, 65 μm, 66 μm, 67 μm, 68 μm, 69 μm, 70 μm or the range composed of any two of the above values. When the thickness of the second negative electrode film layer is within the above range, the first negative electrode film layer and the second negative electrode film layer can regulate and increase the gradient pore difference between the upper and lower layers, reduce the tortuosity of lithium ion transport, and improve the fast charging ability of the battery cell.

[0323] In the embodiments of the present application, for example, taking the upper limit voltage of battery charging as 3.65 V and the cut-off voltage of battery discharging as 2.0 V as an example for illustration, The specific steps for the EOL full charge test are as follows: At 60 °C, charge at a charging rate of 0.33C of the battery nominal capacity until 3.65V, then charge at a constant voltage of 3.65V until 0.05C, stand for 10 min, then discharge at a discharge rate of 0.33C until 2.0V, stand for 10 min. One cycle of the above charge and discharge is considered one cycle, and the test is stopped until the battery capacity decays to 80% of the nominal capacity. Then, at 25 °C, charge at a constant current of 0.33C until 3.65V, and charge at a constant voltage of 0.05C until 3.65V, which is the EOL full charge state. In the EOL full charge state, disassemble the negative electrode sheet, and use a tomography scanning electron microscope to observe the cross-section in the thickness direction of the middle area of the negative electrode sheet. Distinguish the regions of the first negative electrode film layer and the second negative electrode film layer according to the interface between them, and measure their thicknesses respectively. For example, measure the thicknesses of 10 positions of the first negative electrode film layer, calculate their average value as the average value of the first negative electrode film layer, measure the thicknesses of 10 positions of the second negative electrode film layer, and calculate their average value as the average value of the second negative electrode film layer.

[0324] In some embodiments, when the negative electrode film layer adopts a single-layer film layer (different from the above double-layer film layer), the negative electrode film layer further includes a lithium-containing binder.

The mass content of lithium element is calculated based on the mass of the lithium-containing binder. When the mass content of lithium element is within the above range, it can make the number of free-moving lithium ions in the negative electrode film layer relatively large, further shorten the distance for lithium ions to diffuse to the surface of the negative electrode film layer, increase the intercalation and deintercalation rate of lithium ions, and improve the fast charging performance of the battery cell.

[0326] Exemplarily, the lithium-containing binder includes a lithium acrylate-acrylonitrile-acrylamide-2-hydroxyethyl acrylate copolymer, which is derived from a lithium acrylate monomer, an acrylonitrile monomer, an acrylamide monomer, and a 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate monomer. The molar ratio of the lithium acrylate monomer, the acrylonitrile monomer, the acrylamide monomer, and the 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate monomer is (0.3 - 0.5):(0.15 - 0.45):(0.05 - 0.2):(0.2 - 0.35). For example, the molar ratio of the lithium acrylate monomer, the acrylonitrile monomer, the acrylamide monomer, and the 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate monomer is 0.35:0.3:0.15:0.2, or 0.4:0.2:0.1:0.3, or 0.45:0.15:0.2:0.2, etc.

[0327] The lithium-containing binder of the above materials can provide a certain number of lithium ions for the negative electrode film layer, improve the fast charging performance of the battery cell, and is not prone to swelling during the charge and discharge process, with a stable structure, so that the cycle performance of the negative electrode film layer is improved during the fast charge and discharge process.

[0328] In some other embodiments, when the negative electrode film layer adopts at least two film layers, the negative electrode film layer further includes a lithium-containing binder.

For example, the molar ratio of the lithium acrylate monomer, the acrylonitrile monomer, the acrylamide monomer, and the 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate monomer is 0.35:0.3:0.15:0.2, or 0.4:0.2:0.1:0.3, or 0.45:0.15:0.2:0.2, etc.

[0334] The lithium-containing binder of the above material can provide a certain number of lithium ions for the negative electrode film layer, improve the fast charging performance of the battery cell, and is not prone to swelling during charge and discharge, with a stable structure, so that the cycle performance of the negative electrode film layer is improved during fast charge and discharge.

[0335] Optionally, the mass content of the second lithium-containing binder relative to the mass of the second negative electrode film layer is 0.1% to 1%.

[Separator membrane] In the embodiments of the present application, the separator membrane includes a base membrane with a porous structure.

[0369] In some embodiments, the base film comprises at least one of glass fiber, non-woven fabric, and polyolefin. The base film may be a single-layer film or a multi-layer composite film, without particular limitation. When the base film is a multi-layer composite film, the materials of each layer may be the same or different, without particular limitation.

[0370] Optionally, the polyolefin comprises at least one of polyethylene, polypropylene, and polyvinylidene fluoride.

[0371] In some embodiments, the porosity of the base film is from 20% to 70%, optionally from 35% to 60%. Exemplarily, the porosity of the base film is 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70% or a range composed of any two of the above values.

[0372] When the porosity of the base film in the embodiments of the present application is within the above range, the migration ability of lithium ions in the separator can be improved, the internal resistance of the battery cell can be further reduced, thereby reducing heat generation.

[0373] In the embodiments of the present application, the porosity refers to the percentage of the internal pore volume in the total volume of the separator. The porosity can be tested in accordance with the standard GB / T36363-2018 "Polyolefin Separator for Battery Cells". It should be noted that in the actual testing process, the testing process may be slightly different from the standard according to the differences in testing instruments, testing errors, and in order to eliminate the influence on the porosity test as much as possible, so as to obtain a more accurate test value.

[0374] In some embodiments, the thickness of the base film is from 6μm to 12μm, optionally from 6μm to 9μm. Exemplarily, the thickness of the base film is 6μm, 6.5μm, 7μm, 7.5μm, 8μm, 8.5μm, 9μm, 9.5μm, 10μm, 10.5μm, 11μm, 11.5μm, 12μm or a range composed of any two of the above values.

[0375] When the thickness of the base film is within the above range, the migration path of lithium ions in the base film is shorter, the internal resistance of the battery cell can be further reduced, thereby reducing heat generation.

[0376] In the embodiments of the present application, the separator may be the base film. Optionally, the separator further comprises a functional layer disposed on at least one side of the base film. The functional layer may comprise inorganic particles to improve the heat resistance of the separator. Optionally, the functional layer is disposed on both sides of the base film.

[0377] In some embodiments, the functional layer includes a first functional layer and a second functional layer. The first functional layer is located on one side of the base film and includes first inorganic particles. The second functional layer is located on the other side of the base film and includes composite particles. The composite particles include second inorganic particles and a plurality of non-fluoropolymer particles, and the second inorganic particles are attached to the surface of the non-fluoropolymer particles and / or dispersed inside the non-fluoropolymer particles.

[0378] The first functional layer and the second functional layer have good heat resistance, which can improve the heat resistance of the separator membrane.

[0379] Optionally, the first functional layer may include a binder, optionally at least one of a fluorine-containing binder or a polyacrylic acid binder, such as polyvinylidene fluoride.

[0380] Optionally, the first inorganic particles include one or more of silicon oxide, aluminum oxide, boehmite, barium sulfate, calcium oxide, titanium oxide, zinc oxide, magnesium oxide, zirconium oxide, and tin oxide. The above first inorganic particles can improve the heat resistance of the first functional layer.

[0381] In the embodiments of the present application, the meaning of the thickness of the base film is the meaning well-known in the art, and it can be detected by using the meaning and equipment well-known in the art. For example, a newly prepared separator membrane can be taken as a sample, or a battery cell that has been discharged (discharged to the lower cut-off voltage so that the charged state of the battery is about 0% SOC) can be disassembled in reverse, the separator membrane is obtained from the battery cell, and the separator membrane is dried and used as a sample. The separator membrane is cut off with an ion beam cutter to form a cross-section. Subsequently, a scanning electron microscope is used to measure the thickness of the cross-section of the separator membrane and its respective layers.

[0382] The non-fluoropolymer particles in the second functional layer refer to polymers that are non-fluorinated polymers. For example, the non-fluoropolymer particles include acrylate copolymers. Optionally, the acrylate copolymers include acrylate-acrylonitrile-acrylamide-acrylonitrile copolymers. The acrylate copolymers have excellent adhesion properties and high adhesion stability with the base film. The molar ratio of each monomer in the copolymer can be any ratio, such as a molar ratio of 0.35:0.3:0.15:0.2, or 0.4:0.2:0.1:0.3, or 0.45:0.15:0.2:0.2, etc.

[0383] The second inorganic particles in the composite particles prevent the non-fluoropolymer particles from easily adhering to each other during the high-temperature treatment in the granulation process, creating pores in the composite particles, which is beneficial for the transport of lithium ions, improving the ionic conductivity of the separator membrane. Additionally, the second inorganic particles can also increase the compression modulus of the composite particles, making the composite particles less likely to deform during charge and discharge processes, resulting in a more stable structure of the separator membrane, enhancing the kinetic performance of the battery cell and the fast charging performance. Optionally, compared with the first functional layer, the second functional layer is disposed closer to the negative electrode tab. Since the composite particles are less likely to deform, the separator membrane basically does not cause side effects such as extrusion to the negative electrode tab, ensuring the stable kinetic performance of the negative electrode tab. Correspondingly, the first functional layer is disposed closer to the positive electrode tab.

[0384] Optionally, the second inorganic particles include one or more of silicon oxide, aluminum oxide, boehmite, barium sulfate, calcium oxide, titanium oxide, zinc oxide, magnesium oxide, zirconium oxide, and tin oxide. Optionally, the second inorganic particles include silicon oxide. The above-mentioned second inorganic particles can improve the heat resistance of the second functional layer and can form composite particles in combination with the non-fluoropolymer, further improving the cycle stability and kinetic performance of the separator membrane, and enhancing the cycle performance and fast charging performance of the battery cell.

[0385] The average particle size of the second inorganic particles is from 5 nm to 100 nm, optionally from 10 nm to 100 nm, and optionally from 5 nm to 20 nm.

When the average particle size of the second inorganic particles is within the above range, it is beneficial to improve the heat resistance and compression modulus of the composite particles.

[0386] In the embodiments of the present application, the average particle size of the second inorganic particles has the meaning well-known in the art and can be detected using equipment and methods well-known in the art. For example, after obtaining the separator membrane and drying it as a sample, use an ion beam cutter to cut the separator membrane to form a cross-section. Subsequently, use a scanning electron microscope to measure the particle size of the second inorganic particles in the separator membrane, measure the particle sizes of multiple (such as 50) second inorganic particles, and calculate their average value as the average particle size of the second inorganic particles.

[0387] In some embodiments, the ionic conductivity of the separator membrane is from 0.3 mS / cm to 0.6 mS / cm. Exemplarily, the ionic conductivity of the separator membrane is 0.3 mS / cm, 0.35 mS / cm, 0.4 mS / cm, 0.45 mS / cm, 0.5 mS / cm, 0.55 mS / cm, 0.6 mS / cm, or a range composed of any two of the above values.

[0483] For example, at -20 °C, charge the battery cell at a constant current of 0.33 C to 3.65 V, let it stand for 1 min, then charge it at a constant current of 0.1 C to 3.65 V, let it stand for 30 min, discharge it at a constant current of 0.33 C to 2.0 V, and record the discharge capacity A 0 , in units of Ah, and then charge it at a constant current of 0.33 C for 0.5 A 0 Ah, and adjust the SOC to 50%.

[0491] The positive electrode film layer is arranged on both sides of the positive current collector in the thickness direction, and the negative electrode film layer is arranged on both sides of the negative current collector in the thickness direction.

[0497] In Comparative Example 3, the coating weight of the negative electrode film layer is small and cannot meet the energy density requirement; in Comparative Example 4, the coating weight of the negative electrode film layer is large, resulting in a small impedance of the battery cell and poor cycling performance.

[0498] In the examples of the present application, the coating weight of the negative electrode film layer is 74 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 to 156 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 , which can effectively reduce the internal resistance of the battery cell, improve the fast charging performance of the battery cell, and can also improve the cycle performance and have excellent energy density.

The thickness is 1 μm. The mass content of the negative conductive agent in the negative conductive layer is 35%, the mass content of the negative binder in the negative conductive layer is 60%, and the mass content of the thickener in the negative conductive layer is 5%.

[0503] The negative electrode film layer includes a film layer formed by uniformly coating a negative electrode paste (the solvent is deionized water) on the surface of the negative conductive layer and then drying and cold pressing.

[0508] Table 3

[0509] As can be seen from Table 3, In Comparative Example 5, when the positive electrode tab is disposed on one side of the positive current collector in the length direction and the negative electrode tab is disposed on one side of the negative current collector in the length direction, the current distribution is uneven, the internal resistance of the battery cell is relatively large, and the cycle performance is poor.

[0510] When the ratio of the width of the first end face of the positive electrode tab to the width of the positive current collector is greater than or equal to 1 / 3, and the ratio of the width of the second end face of the negative electrode tab to the width of the negative current collector is greater than or equal to 1 / 3, the battery cell has a smaller internal resistance and excellent cycle performance and energy density.

[0511] The current-carrying area of the positive terminal is 200 mm 2 to 800 mm 2 , and the current-carrying area of the negative terminal is 200 mm 2 to 800 mm 2 When this is the case, the battery cell has a smaller internal resistance and excellent cycle performance and energy density.

[0512] When the negative electrode film layer is disposed on at least one side of the negative current collector, the battery cell has a smaller internal resistance and excellent cycle performance and energy density.

[0513] Although the illustrative embodiments have been shown and described, those skilled in the art should understand that the above embodiments should not be construed as limiting the present application, and that changes, substitutions, and modifications can be made to the embodiments without departing from the spirit, principles, and scope of the present application.
