Abstract

[0002] The negative electrode for all-solid-state batteries is a composite material containing a silicon-based negative electrode active material, a sulfide-based solid electrolyte, etc. The sulfide-based solid electrolyte in the negative electrode is responsible for lithium ion conduction. When the content of the sulfide-based solid electrolyte is increased to ensure the lithium ion conduction path, the electron conduction path of the silicon-based negative electrode active material is blocked. Therefore, in order to obtain output characteristics, it is necessary to use a conductive additive.

When the ratio (D 1 / D 2 ) is 1 or less, a lithium ion conduction and electron transport path can be easily formed in the negative electrode 20.
[0052] The pulverized conductive additive 23 may refer to the resulting product obtained by pulverizing the original conductive additive using a predetermined method. The pulverized conductive additive 23 (conductive material) may include carbon black. For example, the conductive additive 23 may include Super-p, Super-C65, Denka Black, Ketjen Black, acetylene black, etc.
[0053] The D 50 particle size of the pulverized conductive additive 23 may be in the range of 1 μm to 20 μm. In addition, the negative electrode 20 may satisfy the following formula 1.
[0054] [Formula 1]
[0055] 0.1 < a / b [μm / %] < 0.5
[0056] In Formula 1, "a" may be the D of the pulverized conductive additive 23. 50 Particle size [μm], "b" may be the porosity [%] of the negative electrode 20. The porosity may be the ratio of the pores 24 contained in a unit volume. The method for measuring the porosity is not particularly limited. For example, after measuring the true density of the negative electrode 20 by a gas replacement method (pycnometer method) or a liquid replacement method (Archimedes method), the film density of the negative electrode 20 is calculated using the following formula.
[0057] Thin film density=weight of negative electrode 20 / (film thickness×area of negative electrode 20).
[0058] The porosity can be calculated using the following formula using the true density and the film density.
[0059] Porosity [%] = (true density - film density) / true density × 100.
[0060] When the negative electrode 20 satisfies Formula 1, the pulverized conductive additive 23 can offset the defect that the electron conduction path is blocked by the pores 24. When Formula 1 is satisfied, the pulverized conductive additive 23 can be uniformly dispersed in the negative electrode 20 without aggregation, thereby forming an electron conduction path.
[0061] The porosity of the negative electrode 20 may be in the range of 0.1% to 70%, 0.1% to 40%, or 0.1% to 30%.

[0063] The method of manufacturing the negative electrode 20 may include preparing a starting material by mixing a raw conductive additive and a pulverizing medium. The method may also include obtaining a pulverized conductive additive by pulverizing the starting material using a resonance method. The method may also include preparing a mixture comprising a pulverized conductive additive, a negative electrode active material, a solid electrolyte, and a binder. The method may additionally include using the mixture to manufacture a negative electrode.
[0064] The pulverizing medium is not particularly limited, but may include, for example, zirconia balls or the like.
[0065] The starting material can be prepared by introducing a pulverized medium and a raw conductive additive into a container having a predetermined internal space and mixing the introduced pulverized medium and the raw conductive additive. The mass (M) of the raw conductive additive 1 ) and the mass of the crushing medium (M 2) ratio (M 1 / M 2 ) can be higher than 0.125 and lower than 8. When the ratio (M 1 / M 2 ) falls within the above numerical range, the original conductive additive can be effectively crushed.
[0066] The pulverized conductive additive can be obtained by pulverizing a starting material using a resonance method. Figure 3 An example of a pulverization process using a resonance method is shown. Resonance-based pulverization can involve mixing and pulverizing by applying acoustic and vibration energy to the sample. Figure 3 As shown in , when the sample oscillates vertically, the subharmonic beam irradiates the sample so that Faraday waves appear, thereby providing strong shear and collision forces to the sample.
[0067] Specifically, in the step of obtaining the pulverized conductive additive, a resonance frequency higher than 0 Hz and lower than 100 Hz may be applied to the starting material. At the same time, in the step of obtaining the pulverized conductive additive, a gravitational acceleration in the range of 20 G to 80 G may be applied to the starting material for more than 2 minutes and less than 10 minutes.
[0068] The pulverized conductive additive obtained in this manner can be mixed with a negative electrode active material, a solid electrolyte, and a binder to obtain a mixture. Then, using this mixture, a negative electrode can be manufactured.
[0069] The method of obtaining the mixture is not particularly limited. For example, the pulverized conductive additive, negative electrode active material, solid electrolyte, binder, etc. may be introduced into a solvent that does not react with the components and then stirred to obtain a mixture in the form of slurry.
[0070] The method for manufacturing the negative electrode 20 is not particularly limited. For example, the mixture in the form of slurry may be coated on a substrate and dried to manufacture the negative electrode 20 .

Each of the two main surfaces may be a plane mathematically, and a portion thereof may also include a uniform curved surface. Alternatively, protrusions and depressions formed during the formation of the solid electrolyte layer 30 may be included.

The length of the solid electrolyte layer 30 in a first direction (e.g., the width direction) perpendicular to the thickness direction is greater than its thickness. Additionally, the length of the solid electrolyte layer 30 in a second direction (e.g., the length direction) orthogonal to both the thickness direction and the first direction is greater than its thickness.
[0073] The thickness of the solid electrolyte layer 30 is not particularly limited, but can be in the range of 1 μm to 100 μm. The thickness of the solid electrolyte layer 30 can refer to the average value obtained when measuring the measurement target at five points.
[0074] The solid electrolyte layer 30 can contain a solid electrolyte having lithium ion conductivity, a binder, etc.
[0075] The solid electrolyte can be the same as or different from the solid electrolyte contained in the negative electrode 20.

[0077] The positive electrode 20 can contain a positive electrode active material, a solid electrolyte, a conductive additive, a binder, etc.
[0078] The positive electrode active material can contain a lithium transition metal oxide configured to store and release lithium.
[0079] The lithium transition metal oxide can contain any material common in the field to which the present invention pertains. For example, the lithium transition metal oxide can contain LiNi x1 Co x2 Mn x3 O 2 (0.65 ≤ x1 ≤ 0.85, 0.05 < x2 < 0.25, 0.03 < x3 < 0.2, and x1 + x2 + x3 = 1).
