[0003] This application relates to the technical field of battery cells, and particularly to a battery cell, a battery device and an electrical device. Background Art
[0004] In recent years, battery cells have been widely used in energy storage power systems such as hydropower, thermal power, wind power and solar power stations, as well as in multiple fields such as power tools, electric bicycles, electric motorcycles, electric vehicles, military equipment, aerospace, etc.
[0005] With the dual increase in the market's demand for the driving range and charging efficiency of electrical devices, higher requirements are also put forward for the energy density, fast charging performance, etc. of battery cells. However, it is difficult to simultaneously improve the above performances in the prior art, which has become a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved in this field. Summary of the Invention
[0006] This application is made in view of the above problems, and its purpose is to provide a battery cell with both high energy density and good fast charging performance.
[0007] A first aspect of this application provides a battery cell, comprising a positive electrode tab and an electrolyte; the positive electrode tab comprises a positive electrode current collector and a positive electrode active layer located on at least one surface of the positive electrode current collector, the positive electrode active layer comprises a positive electrode active material, the positive electrode active material comprises a lithium-containing phosphate, and the areal density of a single side of the positive electrode active layer is 230 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 ~400 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 ; the electrolyte comprises a solvent and a lithium-containing electrolyte salt, the solvent comprises a chain carboxylic ester and ethylene carbonate, the lithium-containing electrolyte salt comprises one or more of lithium hexafluorophosphate and a fluorosulfonylimide salt; wherein the mass ratio of the lithium-containing electrolyte salt to ethylene carbonate is 0.29 - 0.72; the conductivity of the electrolyte is 13 mS / cm - 20 mS / cm.
[0008] In the electrolyte, ethylene carbonate easily forms a solvation structure with lithium ions in the lithium-containing electrolyte salt to increase the dissociation rate of lithium ions and anions in the lithium-containing electrolyte salt. However, with the increase in the content of ethylene carbonate, the viscosity of the electrolyte also increases, which has a negative impact on the conductivity of the electrolyte. The chain carboxylic ester can improve the wettability between the electrolyte and the electrode sheet, improve the solid-liquid transport rate of lithium ions between the electrolyte and the electrode sheet, and at the same time, the addition of the chain carboxylic ester is also beneficial to the improvement of the conductivity of the electrolyte. The lithium-containing phosphate positive electrode sheet with a single-sided density within the above range has both a high solid-phase transport rate of lithium ions and a positive electrode active material loading. By matching the above electrolyte, the battery cell has a matching lithium ion dissociation rate, lithium ion liquid-phase transport rate, lithium ion liquid-solid transport rate, and lithium ion solid-phase transport rate, and realizes the balance of the fast charging performance and energy density of the battery cell through the mutual cooperation between various steps.
[0009] In any embodiment, in the electrolyte, the mass ratio of ethylene carbonate to the chain carboxylic ester is (0.26 - 1):1.
[0010] The mass ratio of ethylene carbonate to the chain carboxylic ester within the above range enables the electrolyte to have both appropriate viscosity, conductivity, and good dissociation rate and wettability, which is beneficial to the improvement of the fast charging performance of the battery cell.
[0011] In any embodiment, based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass content ratio of the chain carboxylic ester is 25.5% - 63.75%.
[0012] The electrolyte with the mass content of the chain carboxylic ester within the above range has both good conductivity, wettability, and chemical stability, which is beneficial to the comprehensive improvement of the fast charging performance and cycle stability of the battery cell.
[0013] In any embodiment, the chain carboxylic ester has a structural general formula of R1-COO-R2, where R1 and R2 each independently include one or more of C1~C5 alkyl groups and C1~C5 haloalkyl groups.
[0014] In any embodiment, the chain carboxylic ester includes one or more of ethyl butyrate, ethyl propionate, ethyl acetate, methyl acetate, and methyl formate.
[0015] In any embodiment, based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass content ratio of ethylene carbonate is 17% - 34%.
[0016] The electrolyte with the mass content of ethylene carbonate within the above range has both good viscosity, dissociation rate, and conductivity, which is beneficial to the comprehensive improvement of the fast charging performance of the battery cell.
[0017] In any embodiment, the lithium-containing electrolyte salt includes lithium hexafluorophosphate LiPF6.
[0018] In any embodiment, the lithium-containing electrolyte salt further includes at least one of fluorosulfonylimide salts. Optionally, the fluorosulfonylimide salt includes one or more of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide LiFSI and lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide LiTFSI.
[0019] Fluorosulfonylimide salts are prone to dissociation in the electrolyte solvent, which is beneficial to improving the conductivity of the electrolyte. Moreover, fluorosulfonylimide salts have high chemical stability and are not easily decomposed during the recycling process, which can reduce the generation of hydrogen fluoride during battery cycling, reduce the probability of side reactions occurring at the negative electrode, and improve the cycle stability of the battery cell.
[0020] In any embodiment, the lithium-containing electrolyte salt includes lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide LiFSI and lithium hexafluorophosphate LiPF6, and the mass ratio of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide to lithium hexafluorophosphate LiPF6 in the electrolyte is (2 - 5):10.
[0021] A battery cell with the mass ratio of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide to lithium hexafluorophosphate LiPF6 in the electrolyte within the above range can balance the fast charging performance and safety performance of the battery cell.
[0022] In any embodiment, the battery cell further includes a negative electrode plate, which includes a negative electrode current collector and a negative electrode active layer disposed on at least one side of the negative electrode current collector. The negative electrode active layer includes a negative electrode active material, and the volume distribution particle size Dv10 负 of the negative electrode active material is 3.5 μm - 7.5 μm, optionally 4.5 μm - 6.5 μm; Dv99 负 is 25 μm - 35 μm.
[0023] Dv10 负 and Dv99 负 The negative electrode active material within the above range includes a certain content of small particles and large particles at the same time, enabling the battery cell to improve the lithium ion transmission rate through small particles to improve the fast charging performance, and to improve the compaction density of the battery cell electrode plate through the particle size grading of large and small particles to improve the energy density of the battery cell, thus achieving a balance between the fast charging performance and the energy density.
[0024] In any embodiment, the electrolyte further contains additives, which include at least one of carbonate additives, sulfur-containing additives, and lithium salt additives. The lithium salt additives include one or more of lithium difluorophosphate LiPO2F2, lithium difluoro(oxalato)borate LiDFOB, lithium tetrafluoroborate LiBF4, and lithium bis(oxalato)borate LiBOB.
[0025] The above additives are all film-forming additives, which can form a film on the surface of the negative electrode active layer prior to the solvents and lithium-containing electrolyte salts in the electrolyte, improving the electrochemical performance of the battery cell.
[0026] The components of the SEI film formed by carbonate additives are mainly organic components with excellent toughness, which can improve the cycle stability of the battery cell; the components of the SEI film formed by sulfur-containing additives have excellent thermal stability and chemical stability, which can make up for the deficiencies of organic components and improve the storage performance of the battery cell at high temperatures; lithium salt additives can reduce the problem of insufficient lithium ions at high-rate charging speeds and achieve the effect of lithium supplementation while improving the stability of the SEI film.
[0027] In any embodiment, the additive includes at least two of carbonate additives, sulfur-containing additives, and lithium salt additives.
[0028] The performance of the battery cell under fast charging conditions is comprehensively improved through the interaction of two or more components in the additive.

[0033] Chain carboxylic esters have high activity, which can improve the wettability between the electrolyte and the electrode sheet and the conductivity of the electrolyte while eroding the solid electrolyte membrane (SEI membrane). Vinylene carbonate (VC) has a reduction potential close to that of chain carboxylic esters, which can inhibit the reaction activity of chain carboxylic esters and improve the cycle life of the battery cell.
[0034] In any embodiment, the additive includes fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC); based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass content of fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) in the electrolyte ranges from 0.1% to 4%, and may optionally be 0.5% - 3%.
[0035] If the content of vinylene carbonate (VC) is too high, it will cause an increase in the interfacial impedance and charge transfer impedance of the battery, which has an adverse effect on the fast charging performance of the battery cell. Fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) can also form a film on the surface of the negative electrode at a relatively high potential and has a lower interfacial impedance and charge transfer impedance. However, the SEI film formed by fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) has poor high-temperature stability, which is not conducive to the stability of the battery cell in a high-temperature environment. By adding vinylene carbonate (VC) and fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) in the electrolyte, the fast charging performance and high-temperature stability of the battery cell can be effectively balanced.
[0036] In any embodiment, the electrolyte includes vinylene carbonate and fluoroethylene carbonate, and the mass ratio of the total mass of vinylene carbonate (VC) and fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) to the mass of the chain carboxylic ester is 0.008 - 0.5.
[0037] Vinylene carbonate (VC) and fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) are combined with each other to improve the erosion of the chain carboxylic ester in the electrolyte on the SEI film, and effectively balance the fast charging performance and storage stability of the battery cell.

[0041] The positive electrode active layer with a single-sided areal density within the above range can more effectively balance the fast charging performance and energy density of the battery cell.

In addition, when it is stated that a certain parameter is an integer ≥2, it is equivalent to disclosing that the parameter is, for example, the integer 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, etc.

For example, the method includes steps (a) and (b), which means that the method can include steps (a) and (b) carried out in sequence, or can also include steps (b) and (a) carried out in sequence.

For example, the method can include steps (a), (b) and (c), or can also include steps (a), (c) and (b), or can also include steps (c), (a) and (b), etc.
[0121] Unless otherwise specified, the "including" and "comprising" mentioned in this application mean open-ended, and can also be closed-ended. For example, the "including" and "comprising" can mean that other components not listed can also be included or comprised, or can only include or comprise the listed components.
[0122] Unless otherwise specified, in this application, the term "or" is inclusive. For example, the phrase "A or B" means "A, B, or both A and B". More specifically, any of the following conditions satisfies the condition "A or B": A is true (or exists) and B is false (or does not exist); A is false (or does not exist) while B is true (or exists); or both A and B are true (or exist).
[0123] The fast charging technology aims to shorten the time required for battery charging, mainly by increasing the charging current and improving the charging rate to achieve the rapid insertion / extraction of active ions in the active material layer. High-energy-density batteries usually have a high areal density in the active material layer, but the high areal density will affect the insertion / extraction rate of active ions in the battery cell, thereby reducing the fast charging performance of the battery cell. Therefore, the fast charging performance and energy density of the battery cell are often "contradictory points" that are difficult to balance.
[0124] Based on this, a first aspect of this application provides a battery cell, including a positive electrode plate and an electrolyte; the positive electrode plate includes a positive electrode current collector and a positive electrode active layer located on at least one surface of the positive electrode current collector, the positive electrode active layer includes a positive electrode active material, the positive electrode active material includes a lithium-containing phosphate, and the areal density of a single side of the positive electrode active layer is 230 mg / 1540.25mm 2 ~400mg / 1540.25mm 2; The electrolyte contains a solvent and a lithium-containing electrolyte salt. The solvent includes a chain carboxylic acid ester and ethylene carbonate. The lithium-containing electrolyte salt includes one or more of lithium hexafluorophosphate and fluorosulfonylimide salts. Wherein the mass ratio of the lithium-containing electrolyte salt to ethylene carbonate is 0.29 - 0.72; the conductivity of the electrolyte is 13 mS / cm - 20 mS / cm.
[0125] In this application, the "single-sided areal density of the positive electrode active layer" refers to the mass of the positive electrode active layer per unit area on one side of the current collector.
[0126] In this application, the single-sided areal density of the positive electrode active layer can be tested by methods known in the art. For example, a single-sided coated and cold-pressed positive electrode sheet (if it is a double-sided coated positive electrode sheet, the positive electrode active layer on one side can be wiped off first) can be taken and punched into small round pieces with an area of S1, weighed, and recorded as M1. Then, the positive electrode active layer of the above-mentioned weighed positive electrode sheet is wiped off, and the mass of the positive electrode current collector is weighed and recorded as M0. The single-sided areal density of the positive electrode sheet = (M1 - M0) / S1.
[0127] In some embodiments, the single-sided areal density of the positive electrode active layer can be selected as 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 、325 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 、340 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 、350 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 、360 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 、375 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 、400 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 or any value range between any two of them.
[0128] The lithium-containing phosphate is an active material with an olivine structure including lithium ions and phosphate groups. The types of the cathode active materials can be tested by any well-known method in the art. As an example, phase analysis methods such as X-ray diffraction (XRD) can be combined with elemental analysis methods such as energy spectrum and XPS for analysis.
[0129] The types and masses of the solvents and lithium-containing electrolyte salts in the electrolyte can be obtained by detecting the electrolyte through methods well-known to those skilled in the art. For example, the composition in the electrolyte can be measured by liquid chromatography, ultraviolet spectrophotometry, ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry, etc. Exemplarily, disassemble the battery cell, obtain the free electrolyte from the battery cell, dilute the free electrolyte in the battery cell with acetonitrile by 3 to 10 times to obtain the electrolyte dilution to be tested, use a GC-MS 3100 organic component gas chromatograph, place the above electrolyte dilution in the instrument for full-scan qualitative analysis, with the inlet temperature of 250 °C and the scanning range: 35 μm to 270 μm. After the test is completed, obtain the total ion current chromatogram of each organic substance, compare the corresponding organic substance types according to the peak positions in the chromatogram, and calculate the percentage of the corresponding content of each organic substance according to the peak areas. Exemplarily, an ion chromatograph (IC) can be used to test the content of inorganic substances in the electrolyte. Weigh a quantitative electrolyte (the dilution concentration is in the middle of the standard curve), make up the volume to 100 mL with ultrapure water, and perform automatic injection detection by the ion chromatograph to test the ion chromatogram of inorganic substances, and compare the corresponding inorganic substance types according to the peak positions in the chromatogram.
[0130] In some embodiments, the mass ratio of the lithium-containing electrolyte salt to ethylene carbonate can be selected as 0.29, 0.31, 0.35, 0.40, 0.45, 0.50, 0.55, 0.60, 0.65, 0.70, 0.72 or the numerical range between any two of them.
[0131] The conductivity of the electrolyte is to describe the ability of the positive and negative ions dissociated in the electrolyte solution to move directionally in an electric field to constitute the conduction process, and can be tested by any well-known method in the art. As an example, take about 100 mL of the electrolyte sample with a dry, clean and corrosion-resistant sample bottle, seal it and place it in a constant temperature water bath, shake the sample from time to time, and keep the temperature constant at 25 °C (deviation ±5 °C). After the temperature of the sample is constant, use a commercially available conductivity meter to test its conductivity. After wiping the conductivity meter clean with the calibration solution, vertically place it into the liquid to be tested, click to start the test, and record the test result after the data is stable for more than 10 s.
[0132] In some embodiments, the conductivity of the electrolyte can be optionally 13 mS / cm, 14 mS / cm, 15 mS / cm, 16 mS / cm, 17 mS / cm, 18 mS / cm, 19 mS / cm, 20 mS / cm, 21 mS / cm, 22 mS / cm, 23 mS / cm, 24 mS / cm, 25 mS / cm or the numerical range between any two of them.
[0133] Ethylene carbonate in the electrolyte and lithium ions in the lithium-containing electrolyte salt are prone to form a solvation structure to increase the dissociation rate of lithium ions and anions in the lithium-containing electrolyte salt. However, with the increase in the content of ethylene carbonate, the viscosity of the electrolyte will also increase, which has a negative impact on the conductivity of the electrolyte; while chain carboxylic esters can improve the wettability between the electrolyte and the electrode sheet, and improve the solid-liquid transport rate of lithium ions between the electrolyte and the electrode sheet. At the same time, the addition of chain carboxylic esters is also beneficial to the improvement of the electrolyte conductivity. The lithium-containing phosphate positive electrode sheet with a single-sided density in the above range has both a high solid-phase transport rate of lithium ions and a positive electrode active material loading. By matching the above electrolyte, the battery cell has a matching lithium ion dissociation rate, lithium ion liquid-phase transport rate, lithium ion liquid-solid transport rate, and lithium ion solid-phase transport rate, and realizes the balance of the fast charging performance and energy density of the battery cell through the mutual cooperation of each step.
[0134] In some embodiments, in the electrolyte, the mass ratio of ethylene carbonate to the chain carboxylic ester is (0.26-1):1.
[0135] In some embodiments, in the electrolyte, the mass ratio of ethylene carbonate to the chain carboxylic ester can be optionally 0.26:1, 0.30:1, 0.36:1, 0.40:1, 0.46:1, 0.50:1, 0.56:1, 0.60:1, 0.66:1, 0.70:1, 0.76:1, 0.80:1, 0.86:1, 0.90:1, 0.96:1, 1:1 or the numerical range between any two of them.
[0136] The mass ratio of ethylene carbonate to the chain carboxylic ester in the above range enables the electrolyte to have appropriate viscosity, conductivity, good dissociation rate and wettability at the same time, which is beneficial to the improvement of the fast charging performance of the battery cell.
[0137] In some embodiments, based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass content ratio of the chain carboxylic ester is 25.5%-63.75%.
[0138] In some embodiments, based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass content ratio of the chain carboxylic acid ester can be optionally 25.5%, 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, 60%, 63.75% or a numerical range between any two of them.
[0139] The electrolyte with the mass content of the chain carboxylic acid ester within the above range has both good conductivity, wettability and chemical stability, which is beneficial to the comprehensive improvement of the fast charging performance and cycle stability of the battery monomer.
[0140] In some embodiments, the chain carboxylic acid ester has a structural general formula of R1-COO-R2, where R1 and R2 each independently include one or more of C1-C5 alkyl groups and C1-C5 haloalkyl groups.
[0141] "C1-C5 alkyl" refers to an unbranched or branched alkyl group having 1-5 carbon atoms; including but not limited to one or more of methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, sec-butyl, tert-butyl, n-pentyl, 2-pentyl, 2-methylbutyl, 3-methylbutyl, 1,2-dimethylpropyl, 1,1-dimethylpropyl, 2,2-dimethylpropyl, 1-ethylpropyl.
[0142] "C1-C5 haloalkyl" refers to an unbranched or branched alkyl group having 1-5 carbon atoms with at least one hydrogen atom substituted by a halogen, including but not limited to one or more of chloroalkyl, bromoalkyl, iodoalkyl.
[0143] In some embodiments, the chain carboxylic acid ester includes one or more of ethyl butyrate, ethyl propionate, ethyl acetate, methyl acetate, methyl formate.
[0144] In some embodiments, based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass content ratio of ethylene carbonate is 17%-34%.
[0145] In some embodiments, based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass content ratio of ethylene carbonate can be optionally 17%, 18%, 19%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 34% or a numerical range between any two of them.
[0146] The electrolyte with the mass content of ethylene carbonate within the above range has both good viscosity, dissociation rate and conductivity, which is beneficial to the comprehensive improvement of the fast charging performance of the battery monomer.
[0147] In some embodiments, the lithium-containing electrolyte salt includes lithium hexafluorophosphate LiPF6.
[0148] In some embodiments, the lithium-containing electrolyte salt further includes at least one of fluorosulfonylimide salts. Optionally, the fluorosulfonylimide salt includes one or more of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (LiFSI) and lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI).
[0149] Fluorosulfonylimide salts are prone to dissociation in the electrolyte solvent, which is beneficial to improving the conductivity of the electrolyte. Moreover, fluorosulfonylimide salts have high chemical stability and are not easily decomposed during the recycling process. They can reduce the generation of hydrogen fluoride during the battery cycling process, decrease the probability of side reactions occurring at the negative electrode, and improve the cycle stability of the battery cell. However, with the increase in the temperature of the battery cell, the fluorosulfonylimide salt will undergo violent decomposition at a certain temperature threshold, releasing a large amount of heat and sharply increasing the risk of thermal runaway of the battery. This safety risk is more significant in fast-charging batteries. Although lithium hexafluorophosphate will gradually decompose to produce hydrofluoric acid during the secondary cycling process, the addition of lithium hexafluorophosphate will greatly reduce the risk of thermal runaway of the battery cell, keeping the risk within a controllable range and improving the safety of the battery.
[0150] In some embodiments, the lithium-containing electrolyte salt includes lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (LiFSI) and lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF6), and the mass ratio of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide to lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF6) in the electrolyte is (2 - 5):10.
[0151] In some embodiments, the mass ratio of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide to lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF6) in the electrolyte can be selected as 2:10, 3:10, 4:10, 5:10 or the numerical range between any two of them.
[0152] The battery cell with the mass ratio of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide to lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF6) in the electrolyte within the above range can balance the fast-charging performance and safety performance of the battery cell.
[0153] In some embodiments, the battery cell further includes a negative electrode plate, which includes a negative electrode current collector and a negative electrode active layer disposed on at least one side of the negative electrode current collector. The negative electrode active layer includes a negative electrode active material, and the volume distribution particle size Dv10 负 of the negative electrode active material is 3.5 μm - 7.5 μm, and can be selected as 4.5 μm - 6.5 μm; Dv99 负 is 25 μm - 35 μm.
[0154] The volume distribution particle size Dv10 负 、Dv99 负It has the meanings well-known in the art, which respectively represent the particle sizes corresponding to when the cumulative volume distribution percentage of the material reaches 10% and 99%, and can be measured by the instruments and methods known in the art. For example, it can be conveniently measured with reference to GB / T 19077-2016 Laser diffraction method for particle size distribution by using a laser particle size analyzer. The test instrument can be the Mastersizer 3000 type laser particle size analyzer of Malvern Instruments Limited, UK. The negative electrode active material can be freshly prepared negative electrode active material or can be obtained by scraping powder from the negative electrode active layer after disassembling a secondary battery.
[0155] In some embodiments, the volume distribution particle size Dv10 of the negative electrode active material 负 can be optionally 3.5μm, 4.5μm, 5.5μm, 6.5μm, 7.5μm or the numerical range between any two of them.
[0156] In some embodiments, the volume distribution particle size Dv99 of the negative electrode active material 负 can be optionally 25μm, 27μm, 30μm, 32μm, 35μm or the numerical range between any two of them.
[0157] Dv10 负 and Dv99 负 The negative electrode active material within the above range includes a certain content of small particles and large particles at the same time, so that the battery cell can improve the lithium ion transmission rate through small particles to improve the fast charging performance, and can also improve the compaction density of the battery cell electrode sheet through the particle size grading of large and small particles to improve the energy density of the battery cell, achieving the balance between the fast charging performance and the energy density.
[0158] In some embodiments, the electrolyte further contains additives, and the additives include at least one of carbonate additives, sulfur-containing additives, and lithium salt additives. The lithium salt additives include one or more of lithium difluorophosphate LiPO2F2, lithium difluorooxalate borate LiDFOB, lithium tetrafluoroborate LiBF4, and lithium bis(oxalato)borate LiBOB.
[0159] Additives refer to components with relatively low contents in the electrolyte, generally with a mass fraction in the electrolyte not exceeding 10%. They are characterized by strong pertinence and small dosages. Without changing the production process, they can significantly optimize certain aspects of the battery's performance. The components of the additives can be obtained by any well-known method in the art. As an example, the composition in the electrolyte can be measured by liquid chromatography, ultraviolet spectrophotometry, ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometry, etc. Exemplarily, an ion chromatograph (IC) can be used to test the inorganic content in the electrolyte. Weigh a certain amount of electrolyte (the dilution concentration is in the middle of the standard curve), make up the volume to 100 mL with ultrapure water, and automatically inject the sample into the ion chromatograph for detection. Test the inorganic ion chromatogram, and compare the corresponding inorganic species according to the peak position in the chromatogram. Dilute the above free electrolyte with acetonitrile by 3 to 10 times to obtain the electrolyte dilution to be tested. Use a GC-MS 3100 gas chromatograph for organic components. Place the above electrolyte dilution in the instrument for full-scan qualitative analysis. The inlet temperature is 250 °C, and the scanning range is 35 μm to 270 μm. After the test is completed, obtain the total ion current chromatogram of each organic substance, and compare the corresponding organic species according to the peak position in the chromatogram.
[0160] The above additives are all film-forming additives, which can form a film on the surface of the negative electrode active layer prior to the solvent and lithium-containing electrolyte salt in the electrolyte, improving the electrochemical performance of the battery cell.
[0161] In some embodiments, the additive includes at least two of carbonate additives, sulfur-containing additives, and lithium salt additives.
[0162] The SEI film components formed by carbonate additives are mainly organic components with excellent toughness, which can improve the cycle stability of the battery cell; the SEI film components formed by sulfur-containing additives have excellent thermal stability and chemical stability, which can make up for the deficiencies of organic components and improve the storage performance of the battery cell at high temperatures; lithium salt additives can reduce the problem of insufficient lithium ions at high-rate charging speeds, realize the lithium supplement function while improving the stability of the SEI film, and comprehensively improve the performance of the battery cell under fast charging conditions through the interaction of two or more of these components.
[0163] In some embodiments, based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass fraction of the additive in the electrolyte is 1% to 10%, optionally 2% to 8%, and further optionally 3.5% to 8%.
[0164] In some embodiments, based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass percentage of the additive in the electrolyte can be optionally 1%, 1.5%, 2%, 2.5%, 3%, 3.5%, 4%, 4.5%, 5%, 5.5%, 6%, 6.5%, 7%, 7.5%, 8%, 8.5%, 9%, 9.5%, 10% or a numerical range between any two of them.
[0165] Based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass percentage of the additive in the electrolyte can be measured by any well-known method in the art. As an example, the testing method for the mass of the solvent and the lithium-containing electrolyte salt in the electrolyte described above can be used for testing. It should be understood that since the additive in the electrolyte will be consumed to some extent during formation and cycling, generating relevant components in the SEI film, the mass percentage of the additive in the electrolyte may be slightly lower than the initial added mass percentage of the additive in the electrolyte.
[0166] In some embodiments, the carbonate additive includes one or more of vinylene carbonate (VC) and fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC).
[0167] In some embodiments, the sulfur-containing additive includes one or more of ethylene sulfate (DTD), bis(ethylene sulfate) (2-DTD), butene sulfite (BS), 1,3-propane sultone (PS), ethylene sulfite (ES), and methylene methyl disulfonate (MMDS).
[0168] In some embodiments, the additive includes vinylene carbonate (VC); based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass content of vinylene carbonate (VC) in the electrolyte is 0.5% to 9%, and can be optionally 2% - 6%.
[0169] In some embodiments, based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass content percentage of vinylene carbonate (VC) in the electrolyte can be optionally 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, 2%, 2.5%, 3%, 3.5%, 4%, 4.5%, 5%, 5.5%, 6%, 6.5%, 7%, 7.5%, 8%, 8.5%, 9% or a numerical range between any two of them.
[0170] Chain carboxylic esters have high activity. While improving the wettability between the electrolyte and the electrode sheet and the conductivity of the electrolyte, they will also erode the solid electrolyte membrane (SEI membrane). Vinylene carbonate (VC) has a reduction potential close to that of chain carboxylic esters, which can inhibit the reaction activity of chain carboxylic esters and improve the cycle life of the battery monomer.
[0171] In some embodiments, the additive includes fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC); based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass content of fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) in the electrolyte ranges from 0.1% to 4%, optionally from 0.5% to 3%.
[0172] In some embodiments, based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass content of fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) in the electrolyte can be optionally 0.1%, 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, 2%, 2.5%, 3%, 3.5%, 4% or any value range between any two of them.
[0173] Excessive content of vinylene carbonate (VC) will lead to an increase in the interfacial impedance and charge transfer impedance of the battery, which has an adverse effect on the fast charging performance of the battery cell. Fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) can also form a film on the surface of the negative electrode at a relatively high potential and has a lower interfacial impedance and charge transfer impedance. However, the high-temperature stability of the SEI film formed by fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) is poor, which is not conducive to the stability of the battery cell in a high-temperature environment. By adding vinylene carbonate (VC) and fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) in the electrolyte, the fast charging performance and high-temperature stability of the battery cell can be effectively balanced.
[0174] In some embodiments, the electrolyte includes vinylene carbonate and fluoroethylene carbonate, and the mass ratio of the total mass of vinylene carbonate (VC) and fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) to the mass of the chain carboxylic ester is 0.008 - 0.5.
[0175] In some embodiments, the mass ratio of the total mass of vinylene carbonate (VC) and fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) in the electrolyte to the mass of the chain carboxylic ester can be optionally 0.008, 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.04, 0.05, 0.06, 0.07, 0.08, 0.09, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5 or any value range between any two of them.
[0176] Vinylene carbonate (VC) and fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) are combined with each other to improve the erosion of the chain carboxylic ester in the electrolyte on the SEI film, effectively balancing the fast charging performance and storage stability of the battery cell.
[0177] In some embodiments, the conductivity of the electrolyte is 14 mS / cm - 20 mS / cm, optionally 15 mS / cm - 20 mS / cm.
[0178] The electrolyte with conductivity within the above range can better balance the fast charging performance and cycle life of the battery cell.
[0179] In some embodiments, the single-sided areal density of the positive electrode active layer is 280 mg / 1540.25mm 2~370mg / 1540.25mm 2 。
[0180] The positive electrode active layer with a single-sided density within the above range can more effectively balance the fast charging performance and energy density of the battery cell.
[0181] In some embodiments, when the battery cell is at 100% SOC, the compaction density of the positive electrode active layer is 2.50 g / cm 3 ~2.80 g / cm 3 ; optionally 2.55 g / cm 3 ~2.68 g / cm 3 。
[0182] In some embodiments, when the battery cell is at 100% SOC, the compaction density of the positive electrode active layer can be optionally 2.50 g / cm 3 、2.55 g / cm 3 、2.60 g / cm 3 、2.68 g / cm 3 、2.70 g / cm 3 、2.75 g / cm 3 、2.80 g / cm 3 or any value range between any two of them.
[0183] In the present application, when the battery cell is at 100% SOC, the compaction density of the positive electrode active layer has the meaning well-known in the art and can be tested by methods known in the art. For example, the battery cell is charged at a constant current charging rate of 0.33C according to a charging strategy to the cut-off voltage (for example, 3.65V), left standing for 1 minute, and then continued to be charged at a constant current charging rate of 0.1C to the cut-off voltage. At this time, the battery cell is charged to 100% SOC, and then the positive electrode plate is disassembled to measure the compaction density of the positive electrode active layer. The compaction density of the positive electrode active layer is the surface density of the positive electrode active layer measured after disassembly / the thickness of the positive electrode active layer. The surface density of the positive electrode active layer can be tested by the method mentioned above, and the thickness of the positive electrode active layer has the meaning well-known in the art and can be tested by methods known in the art, for example, tested by a micrometer (for example, Mitutoyo 293-100 type, with an accuracy of 0.1 μm). It can be understood that when the battery cell is at 100% SOC, the compaction density of the positive electrode active layer is different from the designed value of the battery cell compaction density. Affected by actual operations, when the battery cell is at 100% SOC, the compaction density of the positive electrode active layer is often slightly lower than the designed value of the battery cell compaction density.
[0184] When the battery cell is at 100% SOC, the positive electrode active layer with a compaction density within the above range can achieve the balance of the fast charging performance and energy density of the battery cell.

[0188] The lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure having the above components has good structural stability, can reduce the loss during fast charging, and improve the cycle stability of the battery cell.
[0189] In some embodiments, the positive electrode active material further includes an ion-conducting layer disposed on the surface of the lithium-containing phosphate. The ion-conducting layer includes carbon element, and based on the total mass of the positive electrode active material, the mass percentage of the carbon element is 1% to 2%.
[0190] In some embodiments, based on the total mass of the positive electrode active material, the mass percentage of the carbon element can be selected from 1%, 1.1%, 1.2%, 1.3%, 1.4%, 1.5%, 1.6%, 1.7%, 1.8%, 1.9%, 2% or the numerical range between any two of them.
[0191] It should be noted that the ion-conducting layer can be a single-layer structure or a multi-layer structure. That is to say, the ion-conducting components and carbon-containing components in the ion-conducting layer can be a mixed phase or a layered arrangement. It can be understood that the ion-conducting layer has a high ion transport rate.
[0192] The above-mentioned ion-conducting layer containing carbon element can simultaneously improve the ion conductivity and electrical conductivity of the positive electrode active material, improve the solid-phase transport rate of ions and electrons, and improve the energy density and fast charging performance of the battery cell.

[0197] The phase structure in the ion-conducting layer can be characterized by any well-known method in the art. For example, by characterizing the positive electrode active material through a transmission electron microscope, it can be seen that there are different phase structures in the ion-conducting layer and the matrix of the positive electrode active material. Combining the diffraction pattern and energy spectrum analysis can judge the fast ion conductor components in the ion-conducting layer.
[0198] Fast ion conductors, also known as superionic conductors and solid electrolytes, refer to solids whose ionic conductivity is close to or exceeds that of conductive liquids such as electrolyte solutions or molten salts. Fast ion conductors with NASICON structure have rich three-dimensional lithium-ion diffusion and transport channels, and have advantages such as high ion conduction efficiency and strong structural stability during multiple de-lithiation and intercalation processes. Coating the surface of lithium-containing phosphate with a fast ion conductor containing NASICON structure can significantly improve the transport rate of lithium ions during multiple de-intercalation / intercalation at the positive electrode end, improve the ionic conductivity of the positive electrode active material, and improve the energy density and fast charging performance of the corresponding battery monomer.

Disassemble the battery cell to obtain the anode electrode sheet, use a lithium metal sheet as the counter electrode, a polyethylene film as the separator, and the electrolyte in the battery cell as the electrolyte of the coin cell, and assemble it into a CR2430 type coin cell in a glove box under argon protection. After standing the obtained coin cell for 12 hours, at 25°C, discharge it at a constant current of 0.05C to 0.005V, stand for 10 minutes, then discharge it at a constant current of 50 μA to 0.005V, stand for 10 minutes, and then discharge it at a constant current of 10 μA to 0.005V; then charge it at a constant current of 0.1C to 2V, and record the charging capacity. The ratio of the charging capacity to the mass of the anode active material is the specific capacity of this material.
