[0035] In some embodiments, the powder resistivity of the olivine-structured lithium-containing phosphate is 1 Ω·cm to 27.5 Ω·cm. The powder resistivity of the positive electrode active material is relatively low, so that the resistance of the positive electrode sheet is relatively low and the heat generation of the battery cell is less.

[0036] In some embodiments, the powder compaction density of the olivine-structured lithium-containing phosphate at 30,000 N is 2.46 g / cm 3 Up to 2.8g / cm 3 When the powder compaction density of the positive electrode active material at 30000N is within the above range, the energy density of the battery cell can be improved, and because the positive electrode active material in the positive electrode film layer can be more densely packed, the contact resistance between particles is small, which can further reduce the resistance of the pole piece, thereby reducing heat generation.

[0037] In some embodiments, the olivine-structured lithium-containing phosphate has a charge capacity of 150 mAh / g to 170 mAh / g at a rate of 0.1 C. When the charge capacity of the positive electrode active material at a rate of 0.1 C is within the above range, the energy density of the battery cell is relatively high.

[0038] In some embodiments, the olivine-structured lithium-containing phosphate has a charge capacity of 150 mAh / g to 170 mAh / g. When the charge capacity of the positive electrode active material is within the above range, the energy density of the battery cell is relatively high.

[0039] In some embodiments, the compaction density of the positive electrode film layer of the battery cell at 100% charge state is 2.55 g / cm 3 Up to 2.70g / 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 because the positive electrode active material in the positive electrode film layer is densely packed, the contact resistance between particles is small, which can further reduce the resistance of the pole piece, thereby reducing heat generation.

[0040] In some embodiments, the single-sided coating weight of the positive electrode film layer is 200 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 Up to 370mg / 1540.25mm 2 , optional: 240mg / 1540.25mm 2 Up to 330mg / 1540.25mm 2When the single-sided coating weight of the positive electrode film layer is within the above range, the heat generated per unit area of ​​the positive electrode sheet will not be too large, and the energy density of the battery cell can be improved.

[0041] In some embodiments, the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure includes phosphate particles and a coating layer, wherein the coating layer coats the phosphate particles, and the coating layer contains one or more elements selected from C, Fe, Ti, Zr, Hf, Ge, and Sn. The phosphate particles are coated with the coating layer on the surface, which can improve the conductivity of the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure, reduce the powder resistivity of the material, and facilitate the migration rate of lithium ions, thereby reducing the heat generation of the battery cell.

[0042] In some embodiments, the phosphate particles include a general formula of Li x1 A y1 Me a M b P 1-c X c Y z Compounds, 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 excellent cycle stability, which is beneficial to improving the cycle performance of the battery cell.

[0043] In some embodiments, the coating layer includes a general formula of Li 3-d Fe 2-d M2 d (PO x2 ) y2 The fast ion conductor M2 includes 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 fast ion conductor on the surface of phosphate particles can significantly increase the transmission rate of lithium ions in the positive terminal for multiple lithium extraction / insertion, improve the ionic conductivity of the positive electrode active material, and then increase the gram capacity, and further increase the energy density of the corresponding battery cell.

[0044] In some embodiments, the graphitization degree of the positive electrode active material is 0.15 to 0.32, and can be 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.

[0045] In some embodiments, the mass content of carbon in the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure is 1% to 2%, and the specific surface area of ​​the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure is 5 m 2 / g to 18m 2 / g, optional 7.5m 2 / g to 14m 2 / g.

[0046] Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned mass content of carbon elements combined with the above-mentioned specific surface area material 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.

[0047] In some embodiments, the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure is granular, and its volume distribution particle size satisfies: 1µm≤Dv50≤2µm, 0.4µm≤Dv10≤0.7µm. The particle size of the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure is relatively small, the lithium ion deintercalation path in the positive electrode active material is short, the heat generation is small, and the particle size of the 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.

[0048] In some embodiments, the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure is in a granular form, and the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure includes secondary particles, and the secondary particles include a plurality of primary particles, and the average particle size of the primary particles is 200 nm to 500 nm. The average particle size of the primary particles is relatively small, and the lithium ion deintercalation path in the positive electrode active material is short, and the heat generation is less.

[0049] 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 metamanganate, lithium tartrate, lithium citrate, lithium nickelate and lithium ferrite. The above materials can supplement lithium ions for the positive electrode film layer, make up for the irreversible lithium ion loss in the system, increase the capacity, and thus increase the energy density of the battery cell.

[0050] In some embodiments, the compaction density of the negative electrode film layer of the battery cell at 100% charge state is 1.15 g / cm 3 Up to 1.36g / cm 3 ; Optional: 1.25g / cm3 Up to 1.36g / cm 3 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 because the negative electrode active materials in the negative electrode film layer are densely packed, the contact resistance between particles is small, which can further reduce the resistance of the pole piece, thereby reducing heat generation.

[0051] In some embodiments, the single-sided coating weight of the negative electrode film layer is 90 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 Up to 170mg / 1540.25mm 2 ; Optional: 110mg / 1540.25mm 2 Up to 150mg / 1540.25mm 2 When the single-sided coating weight of the negative electrode film layer is within the above range, the heat generated per unit area of ​​the negative electrode sheet will not be too large, and the energy density of the battery cell can be improved.

[0052] In some embodiments, the powder resistivity of the negative electrode active material is 0.005 Ω·cm to 0.043 Ω·cm. The powder resistivity of the negative electrode active material is relatively low, so that the resistance of the negative electrode sheet is relatively low and the heat generation of the battery cell is less.

[0053] In some embodiments, the powder compaction density of the negative electrode active material at 20000N is 1.5 g / cm 3 Up to 1.85g / cm 3 When the powder compaction density of the negative electrode active material at 20000N is within the above range, the energy density of the battery cell can be improved, and because the negative electrode active material in the negative electrode film layer can be more densely packed, the contact resistance between particles is small, which can further reduce the resistance of the pole piece, thereby reducing heat generation.

[0054] In some embodiments, the charge capacity of the negative electrode active material is greater than or equal to 350 mAh / g. When the charge capacity of the negative electrode active material is within the above range, the energy density of the battery cell is relatively high.

[0055] In some embodiments, the charge capacity of the negative electrode active material at a rate of 0.1C is greater than or equal to 350 mAh / g. When the charge capacity of the negative electrode active material at a rate of 0.1C is within the above range, the energy density of the battery cell is relatively high.

[0056] 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 graphite particles have excellent electrical conductivity, which can reduce the heat generation of the negative electrode plate and the heat generation of the battery cell; and can improve the fast charging performance of the battery cell.

[0057] 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 is coated on the surface of the artificial graphite. The carbon coating layer has more end faces and defects, so that the number of sites that can be used to insert and remove lithium ions is greater, so that the conductivity of the carbon coating layer is relatively excellent, and the internal resistance of the negative electrode plate can be reduced, and the heat generation of the battery cell can be reduced.

[0058] In some embodiments, the mass content of the carbon coating layer is 2% to 5% based on the mass of the graphite particles. When the mass content of the carbon coating layer is within the above range, the internal resistance of the negative electrode plate can be further reduced and the heat generation of the battery cell can be reduced.

[0059] 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 arranged on the surface of the negative electrode collecting 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 away from the negative electrode collecting portion, the second negative electrode film layer includes a carbon-based material, the carbon-based material in the first negative electrode film layer and the carbon-based material in the second negative electrode film layer each independently include graphite particles, and the volume average particle size Dv50 of the graphite particles in the first negative electrode film layer is greater than or equal to the volume average particle size Dv50 of the graphite particles in the second negative electrode film layer.

[0060] Therefore, there is a difference in the particle size between the first negative electrode film layer and the second negative electrode film layer in the embodiment of the present application, which can improve the fast charging performance of the battery cell; specifically, during the fast charging process, the overpotential of the second negative electrode film layer is usually higher, and the bottleneck of fast charging mainly lies in the second negative electrode film layer, while the particle size of the second negative electrode film layer in the embodiment of the present application is relatively small, which can shorten the solid phase transmission path of lithium ions, improve the fast charging performance, and improve the problem of lithium plating on the surface of the negative electrode plate.

[0061] In some embodiments, the carbon-based material in the first negative electrode film layer further includes natural graphite.

[0062] 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 first negative electrode film layer is filled relatively sparsely, and the pores are more abundant, which can improve the fast charging performance of the battery cell.

[0063] In some embodiments, the tap density of the carbon-based material in the first negative electrode film layer is 0.82 g / cm 3 Up to 1.21g / cm 3When the tap density of the carbon-based material in the first negative electrode film layer is within an appropriate range, the fast charging performance of the battery cell can be improved.

[0064] In some embodiments, the tap density of the carbon-based material in the second negative electrode film layer is 0.90 g / cm 3 Up to 1.25g / cm 3 When the tap density of the carbon-based material in the second negative electrode film layer is within an appropriate 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.

[0065] 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 transmission can be reduced and the fast charging performance of the battery cell can be improved.

[0066] In some embodiments, the first negative electrode film layer also includes a first lithium-containing binder, and the second negative electrode film layer also includes a second lithium-containing binder, and 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.

[0067] Therefore, in the embodiment 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 second lithium-containing binder provides the second negative electrode film layer with a relatively larger number of freely movable lithium ions, which can further improve the fast charging performance of the battery cell.

[0068] In some embodiments, the mass content of the first lithium-containing binder relative to the mass of the first negative electrode film layer is 0.1% to 1%. When the mass content of the first lithium-containing binder is within the above range, the lithium ion insertion and extraction rate can be increased, and the fast charging performance of the battery cell can be improved.

[0120] Hereinafter, the battery cells, battery devices and power devices of the present application are specifically disclosed in detail with appropriate reference to the accompanying drawings. However, there may be cases where unnecessary detailed descriptions are omitted. For example, there are cases where detailed descriptions of well-known matters and repeated descriptions of actually the same structures are omitted.

In addition, if the minimum range values ​​1 and 2 are listed, and if the maximum range values ​​3, 4 and 5 are listed, the following range can all be expected: 1 to 3, 1 to 4, 1 to 5, 2 to 3, 2 to 4 and 2 to 5.

[0125] With the development of the field of battery cells, the requirements for the energy density of battery cells are gradually increasing. Compared with nickel-cobalt-manganese oxide batteries, lithium-containing phosphates with olivine structures have low gram capacity and low voltage platform, resulting in lower energy density of battery cells. From the perspective of optimizing the pole piece of a lithium iron phosphate battery, this application introduces a current collector that is more conducive to improving the capacity of the pole piece into the lithium iron phosphate battery, and increases the proportion of the volume of the film layer containing active materials in the pole piece to improve the energy density of the lithium iron phosphate battery. In particular, in lithium iron phosphate batteries with higher requirements for fast charging performance, since the film layer of active materials on the pole piece is usually thinner (more conducive to fast charging), it is more beneficial to improve the energy density of fast-charging battery cells by introducing a current collector that can increase the proportion of the volume of the film layer containing active materials in the pole piece.

[0126] In view of this, the embodiment of the present application rationally designs the system of the battery cell, introduces a suitable current collecting part to adapt to the pole piece design of the lithium iron phosphate battery, reduces the volume proportion of the current collecting part in the battery cell, increases the volume proportion of the membrane layer containing active materials, and improves the energy density of the battery cell.

[0127] Battery Cell In a first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides a battery cell.

[0128] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the battery cell 7 includes an electrode assembly 10 and an electrolyte, the electrode assembly 10 includes a first pole piece 13, a second pole piece 14 and a separator 15, the separator 15 is arranged between the first pole piece 13 and the second pole piece 14, and the polarities of the first pole piece 13 and the second pole piece 14 are opposite; the first pole piece 13 includes a first current collecting portion 131 and a first film layer 132 arranged on at least one side of the first current collecting portion 131 and including a first active material; the second pole piece 14 includes a second current collecting portion 141 and a first film layer 132 arranged on at least one side of the second current collecting portion 141 and including a first active material; A second film layer 142 comprising a second active material; wherein one of the first active material and the second active material comprises a lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure, and the other comprises a carbon-based material; the first current collecting portion 131 comprises a first supporting layer 1311 and a first metal layer 1312 arranged on at least one side of the first supporting layer 1311, the first film layer 132 is arranged on the first metal layer 1312, the first metal layer 1312 is located between the first supporting layer 1311 and the first film layer 132, and the first supporting layer 1311 comprises an organic material. Figure 3 A schematic structural diagram of a wound electrode assembly is shown. It should be noted that the electrode assembly 10 may also be a laminated structure. Figure 5 The schematic diagram of the structure of the first pole piece 13 is shown, the X direction is parallel to the thickness direction of the first pole piece 13, and the Y direction is perpendicular to the X direction.

[0129] The positive electrode active material in the battery cell 7 includes a lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure, and the negative electrode active material includes a carbon-based material, so that the battery cell 7 has relatively excellent structural stability and excellent cycle performance.

[0130] On the basis of the above materials, the first current collecting portion 131 of the first pole piece 13 adopts a composite structure of a first supporting layer 1311 and a first metal layer 1312, which is conducive to reducing the thickness of the first current collecting portion 131, thereby increasing the volume proportion of the first film layer 132, and the above composite structure is more conducive to the capacity of the active material, and improving the volume energy density of the battery cell 7; the first metal layer 1312 includes a metal material, which has excellent conductivity. When the thickness of the first metal layer 1312 is small, it can also achieve rapid electron migration, which is conducive to improving the energy density of the battery cell 7 under fast charging. The first supporting layer 1311 includes an organic material, which is light in weight and can further improve the weight energy density of the battery cell 7; the bonding force between the first supporting layer 1311 and the first metal layer 1312 is strong, so that the structural stability of the first current collecting portion 131 is relatively high.

[0131] In some embodiments, the second current collecting portion 141 includes a second supporting layer 1411 and a second metal layer 1412 disposed on at least one side of the second supporting layer 1411 , the second metal layer 1412 is located between the second supporting layer 1411 and the second film layer 142 , and the second supporting layer 1411 includes an organic material. Figure 7 The schematic diagram of the structure of the second pole piece 14 is shown, the X direction is parallel to the thickness direction of the second pole piece 14, and the Y direction is perpendicular to the X direction.

[0132] The second current collecting portion 141 of the second pole piece 14 adopts a composite structure of a second supporting layer 1411 and a second metal layer 1412, which is conducive to reducing the thickness of the second current collecting portion 141, thereby increasing the thickness ratio of the second film layer 142, which is conducive to further improving the volume energy density of the battery cell 7; the second metal layer 1412 includes a metal material, which has excellent conductivity. When the thickness of the second metal layer 1412 is small, rapid electron migration can also be achieved, which is conducive to improving the weight energy density of the battery cell 7 under fast charging. The second supporting layer 1411 includes an organic material, which is light in weight, and the bonding force between the second supporting layer 1411 and the second metal layer 1412 is strong, so that the structural stability of the second current collecting portion 141 is relatively high.

[0133] The polarities of the first electrode sheet 13 and the second electrode sheet 14 are opposite, for example, the first electrode sheet 13 is a positive electrode sheet and the second electrode sheet 14 is a negative electrode sheet, or the first electrode sheet 13 is a negative electrode sheet and the second electrode sheet 14 is a positive electrode sheet. When the first electrode sheet 13 is a positive electrode sheet, the first current collector 131 and the first film layer 132 correspond to the positive current collector and the positive film layer respectively; when the second electrode sheet 14 is a negative electrode sheet, the second current collector 141 and the second film layer 142 correspond to the negative current collector and the negative film layer respectively.

[0134] [Positive electrode] The first electrode sheet is a positive electrode sheet, the first current collecting portion corresponds to the positive current collecting portion, the first supporting layer corresponds to the positive supporting layer, the first metal layer corresponds to the positive metal layer, the first film layer corresponds to the positive film layer, and the first active material is the positive active material; in this case, the second electrode sheet is a negative electrode sheet, the second current collecting portion corresponds to the negative current collecting portion, the second supporting layer corresponds to the negative supporting layer, the second metal layer corresponds to the negative metal layer, the second film layer corresponds to the negative film layer, and the second active material is the negative active material.

[0135] When the positive electrode current collector adopts a composite structure, the negative electrode current collector may adopt a conventional negative electrode current collector, such as a copper foil structure. Alternatively, when the positive electrode current collector adopts a composite structure, the negative electrode current collector may also adopt a composite structure.

[0136] The positive electrode current collecting portion has two surfaces opposite to each other in the thickness direction of the positive electrode sheet, and the positive electrode film layer is arranged on any one or both of the two opposite surfaces of the positive electrode current collecting portion.

[0137] The positive electrode support layer has two surfaces opposite to each other in the thickness direction of the positive electrode sheet, and the positive electrode metal layer is arranged on any one or both of the two opposite surfaces of the positive electrode support layer. Optionally, the positive electrode metal layer is arranged on both surfaces of the positive electrode support layer, and the positive electrode metal layer is located between the positive electrode support layer and the positive electrode film layer. The positive electrode support layer supports and protects the positive electrode conductive layer. Since the positive electrode support layer generally adopts organic polymer materials, the density of the positive electrode support layer is usually less than the density of the positive electrode metal layer, so that the weight energy density of the battery cell can be significantly improved compared with the traditional metal current collector.

[0138] In addition, the positive electrode metal layer uses a metal layer with a small thickness, which can further improve the volume energy density of the battery. In addition, since the positive electrode support layer can play a good role in bearing and protecting the positive electrode metal layer located on its surface, it is not easy to cause the pole piece fracture phenomenon commonly seen in traditional current collectors.

[0139] In some embodiments, the thickness of the positive electrode current collector is 5 μm to 15 μm, and can be 5 μm to 10 μm. Exemplarily, the thickness of the positive electrode current collector is 5 μm, 5.5 μm, 6 μm, 6.5 μm, 7 μm, 7.5 μm, 8 μm, 8.5 μm, 9 μm, 9.5 μm, 10 μm, 10.5 μm, 11 μm, 12 μm, 15 μm, or a range consisting of any two of the above values.

[0140] When the thickness of the positive electrode current collector is within the above range, the thickness of the positive electrode current collector is relatively thin, which is beneficial to increase the thickness of the positive electrode film layer and improve the energy density of the battery cell.

[0141] In some embodiments, the thickness of the positive electrode metal layer is 0.3 μm to 3 μm, and can be 0.5 μm to 1.5 μm. Exemplarily, the thickness of the positive electrode metal layer is 0.3 μm, 0.35 μm, 0.4 μm, 0.45 μm, 0.5 μm, 0.55 μm, 0.6 μm, 0.65 μm, 0.7 μm, 0.75 μm, 0.8 μm, 0.85 μm, 0.9 μm, 0.95 μm, 1 μm, 1.05 μm, 1.10 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 , 1.65μm, 1.7μm, 1.75μm, 1.8μm, 1.85μm, 1.9μm, 1.95μm, 2μm, 2.05μm, 2.15μm, 2.2μm, 2.25μm, 2.3μm, 2.35μm, 2.4μm, 2.45μm, 2.5μm, 2.55μm, 2.6μm, 2.65μm, 2.7μm, 2.75μm, 2.8μm, 2.85μm, 2.9μm, 2.95μm, 3μm or a range consisting of any two of the above values.

[0142] When the thickness of the positive electrode metal layer is within the above range, the thickness of the positive electrode metal layer is relatively thin, and its conductivity is relatively excellent, which is beneficial to the improvement of the fast charging performance of the battery cell.

[0143] In some embodiments, the metal material in the positive electrode metal layer includes at least one of aluminum, copper, nickel, titanium, silver, nickel-copper alloy, and aluminum-zirconium alloy; optionally, the metal material in the positive electrode metal layer includes aluminum. The above materials have excellent electrical conductivity, which makes the internal resistance of the battery cell relatively small and the polarization small, which is conducive to improving the fast charging performance of the battery cell.

[0144] Optionally, the positive electrode metal layer may further include a conductive carbon material, such as at least one of graphite, acetylene black, graphene, and carbon nanotubes.

[0145] The positive electrode metal layer can be formed on the positive electrode support layer by at least one of mechanical rolling, bonding, vapor deposition, and electroless plating.

[0146] In some embodiments, the thickness of the positive electrode support layer is 1 μm to 10 μm, and can be 3 μm to 8 μm. Exemplarily, the thickness of the positive electrode support layer is 1 μm, 1.5 μm, 2 μm, 2.5 μm, 3 μm, 3.5 μm, 4 μm, 5 μm, 6 μm, 7 μm, 8 μm, 9 μm, 10 μm, or a range consisting of any two of the above values.

[0147] When the thickness of the positive electrode support layer is within the above range, the mechanical strength of the positive electrode current collector can be effectively improved; and the bonding force between the positive electrode support layer and the positive electrode metal layer is strong, so that the structural stability of the positive electrode current collector is relatively high.

[0148] In some embodiments, the positive electrode support layer includes an organic material, and the organic material includes at least one of an insulating polymer material and a conductive polymer material. Optionally, the organic material includes an insulating polymer material. When the positive electrode support layer is made of an insulating material, it is non-conductive, which can increase the short-circuit resistance of the battery cell when a short circuit occurs under abnormal circumstances, greatly reduce the short-circuit current, greatly reduce the short-circuit heat generation, and improve the reliability of the battery cell.

[0151] Optionally, the positive electrode support layer may further include an inorganic material, which may be an insulating inorganic material, such as an insulating polymer composite material formed by a composite of an insulating inorganic material and an insulating polymer material.

[0152] Exemplarily, the inorganic material is preferably at least one of a ceramic material, a glass material, and a ceramic composite material.

[0153] Optionally, the positive electrode support layer may further include an inorganic material, which may be a conductive inorganic material, such as a conductive polymer composite material formed by a composite of a conductive inorganic material and a conductive polymer material.

[0154] Exemplarily, the conductive inorganic material includes at least one of a conductive carbon material, a metal material, and a composite conductive material; the conductive carbon material includes at least one of carbon black, carbon nanotubes, graphite, acetylene black, and graphene; the metal material includes at least one of nickel, iron, copper, aluminum, or alloys of the above metals; the composite conductive material includes at least one of nickel-coated graphite powder and nickel-coated carbon fiber.

[0155] In some embodiments, the positive electrode sheet further includes a positive electrode conductive layer, which is located between the positive electrode film layer and the positive electrode current collector. The positive electrode conductive layer can further improve the conductivity of the positive electrode sheet, reduce the heat generation of the positive electrode sheet, and thus reduce the heat generation of the battery cell. In addition, the positive electrode conductive layer can improve the bonding force between the positive electrode current collector and the positive electrode film layer, improve the connection strength between the two, and reduce the contact resistance.

[0156] In some embodiments, the thickness of the positive electrode conductive layer is 0.1 μm to 2 μm. For example, the thickness of the positive electrode conductive layer can be 0.1 μm, 0.5 μm, 0.8 μm, 1 μm, 1.2 μm, 1.5 μm, 1.6 μm, 1.8 μm, 2 μm, or a range consisting of any two of the above values.

[0157] When the thickness of the positive electrode conductive layer is within the above range, the conductivity of the positive electrode sheet can be further improved, the heat generation of the positive electrode sheet can be reduced, thereby reducing the heat generation of the battery cell; and the energy density of the battery cell can be improved at the same time.

[0158] In some embodiments, the positive electrode conductive layer includes one or more of a positive electrode conductive agent and a positive electrode binder.

[0159] Optionally, the mass content of the positive electrode conductive agent in the positive electrode conductive layer is 30% to 50%. Exemplarily, the mass content of the positive electrode conductive agent is 30%, 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, or a range consisting of any two of the above values.

[0160] 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.

[0161] Optionally, the mass content of the positive electrode binder in the positive electrode conductive layer is 50% to 70%, illustratively, 50%, 60%, 65%, 70% or a range consisting of any two of the above values.

[0162] Exemplarily, 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 fluorine-containing acrylic resin. The positive electrode binder in the positive electrode conductive layer can improve the bonding performance between the positive electrode current collector and the positive electrode film layer, and improve the structural stability of the positive electrode sheet.

[0163] In the embodiment of the present application, the thickness of the positive electrode current collecting portion, the positive electrode supporting layer, the positive electrode metal layer, and the positive electrode conductive layer can be detected using equipment and methods known in the art, for example, by performing a tomographic scan on the positive electrode sheet to directly measure the thickness of each layer.

[0164] In some embodiments, the compaction density of the positive electrode film layer of the battery cell at 100% state of charge SOC is 2.50 g / cm 3 Up to 2.80g / cm 3 ; Optional: 2.55g / cm 3 Up to 2.70g / cm 3 For example, when the battery cell is at 100% state of charge (SOC), the compaction density of the positive electrode film layer is 2.50 g / cm 3 , 2.52g / cm 3 , 2.55g / cm 3 , 2.56g / cm 3 , 2.57g / cm 3 , 2.58g / cm 3 , 2.60g / cm 3 , 2.62g / cm 3 , 2.65g / cm 3 , 2.68g / cm 3 , 2.70g / cm3 , 2.72g / cm 3 , 2.75g / cm 3 , 2.78g / cm 3 , 2.80g / cm 3 Or a range consisting of any two of the above values.

[0165] 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 because the positive electrode active materials in the positive electrode film layer are densely packed, the contact resistance between particles is small, which can further reduce the resistance of the pole piece, thereby reducing the heat generation under fast charging. Therefore, by adjusting the compaction density of the positive electrode film layer to a reasonable range, the battery cell has both high energy density and high charge rate performance.

[0166] The upper limit voltage for charging and the lower limit voltage for discharging of the battery cell vary according to the different positive electrode active materials. For example, when the phosphate material includes lithium iron phosphate, the upper limit voltage for charging is 3.65V and the lower limit voltage for discharging is 2.0V, or the upper limit voltage for charging is 3.7V, or the upper limit voltage for charging is 3.8V; for another example, when the phosphate material includes lithium manganese iron phosphate, the upper limit voltage for charging is 4.2V and the lower limit voltage for discharging is 2.5V, or the upper limit voltage for charging is 4.25V, or the upper limit voltage for charging is 4.35V.

[0167] In the embodiment of the present application, the 100% state of charge SOC and 0% state of charge SOC of the battery cell are defined as follows: The battery cell is charged at a constant current charging rate of 0.33C to the upper limit of the charging voltage, and then charged at a constant voltage to 0.05C, corresponding to the state of 100% SOC of the battery cell; the battery cell is discharged 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.

[0168] In some embodiments, the single-sided coating weight of the positive electrode film layer is 200 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 Up to 370mg / 1540.25mm 2 ; Optional: 240mg / 1540.25mm 2 Up to 330mg / 1540.25mm 2 For example, the coating weight of the positive electrode film on one side is 200 mg / 1540.25 mm 2 , 210mg / 1540.25mm 2 , 220mg / 1540.25mm 2 、230mg / 1540.25mm 2 , 240mg / 1540.25mm 2, 250mg / 1540.25mm 2 、260mg / 1540.25mm 2 、270mg / 1540.25mm 2 、280mg / 1540.25mm 2 、290mg / 1540.25mm 2 、300mg / 1540.25mm 2 、310mg / 1540.25mm 2 、320mg / 1540.25mm 2 、330mg / 1540.25mm 2 、340mg / 1540.25mm 2 、350mg / 1540.25mm 2 、360mg / 1540.25mm 2 、370mg / 1540.25mm 2 Or a range consisting of any two of the above values.

[0169] When the single-sided coating weight of the positive electrode film layer is within the above range, the heat generated per unit area of ​​the positive electrode sheet will not be too large, and both the energy density and the charging rate performance of the battery cell can be improved.

[0170] In the embodiment of the present application, the compaction density of the positive electrode film layer of the battery cell at 100% state of charge SOC can be detected by the following method: the positive electrode sheet is disassembled from the battery cell at 100% state of charge SOC, and the compaction density of the positive electrode film layer is measured. For example, a single-sided coated positive electrode sheet (if it is a double-sided coated sheet, the positive electrode film layer on one side can be wiped off first), punched into a small disc with an area of ​​S1, weighed, recorded as M1, and its thickness H1 is measured. Then the positive electrode film layer of the weighed positive electrode sheet is wiped off, the weight of the positive 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 of the positive electrode sheet M1-the weight of the positive current collector M0) / S1, the thickness of the positive electrode film layer = the thickness of the positive electrode sheet H1-the thickness of the positive current collector H0, 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.

[0171] In some embodiments, the powder resistivity of the positive electrode active material is 1 Ω•cm to 27.5 Ω•cm; optionally, less than or equal to 20 Ω•cm; optionally, less than or equal to 11 Ω•cm. Exemplarily, the powder resistivity of the positive electrode active material may 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 a range consisting of any two of the above values.

[0172] The powder resistivity of the positive electrode active material is relatively low, so that the resistance of the positive electrode sheet is relatively low and the heat generation of the battery cell is less.

[0173] In the embodiments of the present application, the powder resistivity of the material is well known in the art and can be tested using methods and equipment well known in the art, for example, using a PRCD1100 powder resistivity meter for testing according to the test standard GB / T30835-2014.

[0174] In some embodiments, the powder compaction density of the positive electrode active material at 30000N is 2.46 g / cm 3 Up to 2.8 g / cm 3 For example, the powder compaction density of the positive electrode active material at 30000N is 2.46g / cm 3 , 2.47g / cm 3 , 2.48g / cm 3 , 2.49g / cm 3 , 2.5g / cm 3 , 2.51g / cm 3 , 2.55g / cm 3 , 2.58g / cm 3 , 2.60g / cm 3 , 2.65g / cm 3 , 2.68g / cm 3 , 2.70g / cm 3 , 2.72g / cm 3 , 2.75g / cm 3 , 2.78g / cm 3 , 2.80g / cm 3 Or a range consisting of any two of the above values.

[0175] When the powder compaction density of the positive electrode active material at 30000N 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 densely and the contact resistance between particles is smaller, the resistance of the electrode sheet can be further reduced, thereby reducing heat generation.

[0176] In the embodiment of the present application, the powder compaction density of the material has a meaning known in the art, and can be tested by methods and equipment known in the art, and tested 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 the bottom area of ​​1.327 cm of the UTM7305 electronic pressure testing machine. 2 The mold was pressurized to 3000 kg (equivalent to 30000 N), maintained for 30 seconds, then released and maintained for 10 seconds, and then the powder compaction density of the positive electrode active material under a force of 30000 N was recorded and calculated.

[0177] In some embodiments, the charge capacity of the positive electrode active material is 150 mAh / g to 170 mAh / g, optionally 157 mAh / g to 170 mAh / g.

[0178] In some embodiments, the charge gram capacity of the positive electrode active material at a 0.1C rate is 150 mAh / g to 170 mAh / g, optionally 157 mAh / g to 170 mAh / g. Exemplarily, the charge gram 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 a range consisting of any two of the above values.

[0179] When the charge gram 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.

[0180] In the embodiments of the present application, the gram capacity of the active material has a meaning well known in the art and can be tested using equipment and methods well known in the art. The test method for the first coulombic efficiency and the first discharge specific capacity in Appendix G of the national standard GB / T 24533-2019 can be used. Metal lithium is used as the negative electrode and a sample electrode comprising the above material is used as the positive electrode to assemble a half-button battery. Under the conditions of 23°C±2°C, the half-button battery is charged and discharged at a rate of 0.1C on a battery tester or other test equipment with equivalent performance to obtain the charge capacity, and then the capacity is divided by the mass of the active material of the electrode to obtain the charge gram capacity parameter.

[0181] In some embodiments, the mass proportion of the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure in the positive electrode active material may be greater than or equal to 80% and less than or equal to 100%, and the positive electrode active material of the present application may be considered to be a lithium-containing phosphate system with an olivine structure. When the mass proportion of the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure is less than 100%, the positive electrode active material may also include a commonly used positive electrode active material, for example, may include but is not limited to at least one of lithium-containing transition metal oxides. Examples of lithium-containing transition metal oxides may 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.

[0182] Optionally, the mass proportion of the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure in the positive electrode active material is 100%.

[0183] In an embodiment of the present application, the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure may be phosphate particles, or a material obtained by coating and modifying the phosphate particles. For example, the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure includes phosphate particles and a coating layer, wherein 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.

[0184] The phosphate particles are coated with a coating layer on the surface, which can improve the conductivity of the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure, reduce the powder resistivity of the material, and is beneficial to the migration rate of lithium ions, thereby improving the fast charging capability of the battery and reducing the heat generation of the battery cell.

[0185] In some embodiments, the phosphate particles include a general formula of Li x1 A y1 Me a M b P 1-c X c Y z Compounds, where 0.5≤x 1 ≤1.3,0≤y 1 ≤1.3, and 0.9≤x1 +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 excellent cycle stability, which is beneficial to improving the cycle performance of the battery cell.

[0186] Exemplarily, the phosphate particles include LiFePO 4 、LiMnPO 4 、LiNiPO 4 、LiCoPO 4 One or more of the following. During the charging and discharging process, the battery cells are accompanied by the deintercalation and consumption of active ions such as Li. The molar content of Li in the battery cells is different when they are discharged to different states. 4 、LiMnPO 4 、LiNiPO 4 、LiCoPO 4 In the examples of the present invention, 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 used in the battery system, the molar content of Li may change after charge and discharge cycles. 4 、LiMnPO 4 、LiNiPO 4 、LiCoPO 4 In the enumeration of etc., the molar content of oxygen O is only a theoretical value. The release of oxygen from the lattice will cause the molar content of oxygen O to change. In reality, the molar content of oxygen O will fluctuate. The above situations are all within the protection scope of the present application.

[0187] In some embodiments, the coating layer includes a general formula of Li 3-d Fe 2-d M2 d (PO x2 ) y2 The fast ion conductor M2 includes one or more elements selected from Ti, Zr, Hf, Ge and Sn, 0≤d≤1, 0<x 2 <5,0<y 2 <4.

[0188] Exemplarily, the fast ion conductor is a material having a NASICON structure, for example, one or more of lithium iron titanium phosphate Li2FeTi(PO4)3, lithium iron zirconium phosphate Li2FeZr(PO4)3, and lithium iron tin phosphate Li2FeSn(PO4)3.

[0189] Fast ion conductors with NASICON structures are materials with ultrafast ion conduction capabilities, rich three-dimensional lithium ion diffusion and transmission channels, and have the advantages of high ion conduction efficiency and strong structural stability during multiple lithium removal and insertion processes. Coating fast ion conductors with NASICON structures on the surface of phosphate particles can significantly increase the transmission rate of lithium ions during multiple lithium removal / insertion at the positive terminal, improve the ionic conductivity of the positive electrode active material, and improve the fast charging capability of the battery cell. In addition, it can also increase the gram capacity and the energy density of the corresponding battery cell.

[0190] In some embodiments, the coating layer further includes carbon.

[0191] The carbon element and the fast ion conductor can be arranged in layers, for example, the carbon element is used as an independent carbon coating layer, and the fast ion conductor is used 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. Alternatively, 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 carbon element and the fast ion conductor can also be arranged in the same layer.

[0192] Optionally, the carbon coating layer can be coated on the surface of the fast ion conductor layer by a carbonization process of an organic carbon source (e.g., glucose, polyethylene glycol, etc.). The carbon coating layer can partially coat the fast ion conductor layer, or it can completely coat the fast ion conductor layer. The provision of the carbon coating layer can significantly improve the electronic conductivity of the phosphate particles, make up for the defect of poor electronic conductivity of the phosphate particles, and improve the energy density of the battery cell. Specifically, the provision of the carbon coating layer enables the positive electrode active material of the present application to have the following advantages: The carbon coating layer in the positive electrode active material of the present application provides a suitable channel for the transmission of electrons, which can significantly improve the conduction rate of electrons in multiple lithium de- and lithium insertion processes, improve the electronic conductivity of lithium-containing phosphates, improve the charging capacity of the corresponding battery cells, and also improve the energy density.

[0193] The carbon coating layer of the positive electrode active material of the present application is loose and porous, which enables the electrolyte to be in full and effective contact with the lithium-containing phosphate, thereby increasing the transmission rate of lithium ions at the interface and improving the charging capacity of the battery cell.

[0194] Coating a carbon coating on the surface of the lithium-containing phosphate can not only improve the conductivity of the lithium-containing phosphate, but also improve the structural stability of the positive electrode active material, effectively alleviate the iron dissolution 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 uses lithium-containing phosphate as a base material, giving full play to the advantages of low cost, high reliability and good cycle stability of lithium-containing phosphate, while using the coating layer (fast ion conductor layer and carbon coating layer) to solve the disadvantages of poor electronic conductivity and ion conductivity. The battery cell prepared by the positive electrode active material of the present application can improve the energy density of the battery cell while having excellent cycle performance. In the embodiment of the present application, the content of elements in the positive electrode active material has a well-known meaning in the art, and can be detected by equipment and methods well-known in the art, for example, with reference to EPA 6010D-2014, tested by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry, and measured by plasma atomic emission (ICP-OES, instrument model: Thermo ICAP7400). After the battery cell is discharged to 0% state of charge SOC, the positive electrode sheet is disassembled, washed and dried with DMC, and calcined at high temperature to remove impurities, 0.4g of positive electrode active material is weighed, and 10ml (50% concentration) of aqua regia is added thereto. Then place it on a plate at 180°C for 30min. After digestion on the plate, the volume is fixed to 100mL, and the standard curve method is used for quantitative testing.

[0195] In some embodiments, the degree of graphitization of the positive electrode active material is 0.15 to 0.32, and can be 0.19 to 0.26. Exemplarily, the degree of graphitization 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 consisting of any two of the above values.

[0196] 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.

[0197] In the embodiment of the present application, the higher the graphitization degree of the material, the lower the degree of disorder, which can be tested according to the test standard JIS / K 0131-1996 X-ray diffraction analysis method general rules.

[0198] In some embodiments, the mass content of carbon in the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure is 1% to 2%, and the specific surface area of ​​the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure is 5 m2 / g to 18m 2 / g.

[0199] Optionally, the mass content of carbon in the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure is 1% to 2%, and the specific surface area of ​​the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure is 7.5 m 2 / g to 14m 2 / g.

[0200] Illustratively, the mass content of carbon in the olivine-structured lithium-containing phosphate is 1%, 1.1%, 1.2%, 1.3%, 1.4%, 1.5%, 1.6%, 1.7%, 1.8%, 1.9%, 2%, or a range consisting of any two of the above values.

[0201] For example, the specific surface area of ​​the lithium-containing phosphate with olivine structure is 5 m 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 a range consisting of any two of the above values.

[0202] 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 transmission of lithium ions at the phase interface. In addition, when the mass content of the carbon element is within the above range, it can significantly improve the conductivity of the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure, which is beneficial to improving the ionic conductivity and electronic conductivity of the lithium-containing phosphate with an olivine structure, and can improve the rapid charging capability and energy density of the battery cell.

[0203] In the embodiments of the present application, the specific surface area of ​​the material has a well-known meaning in the art and can be detected by using equipment and methods well-known in the art. For example, the positive electrode active material is used as a sample and the specific surface area is tested by a Tri-Star 3020 specific surface area pore size analyzer produced by Micromeritics, USA.

[0204] In some embodiments, the volume distribution particle size of the positive electrode active material satisfies: 1µm≤Dv50≤2µm, 0.4µm≤Dv10≤0.7µm.

[0211] The average particle size of the primary particles is relatively small, the lithium ion deintercalation path in the positive electrode active material is shorter, and the heat generated is less.

[0212] In the embodiment of the present application, secondary particles refer to particles in a state of aggregation formed by the aggregation of more than two primary particles. Primary particles and secondary particles can be easily distinguished by experimental means (such as using a scanning electron microscope to take a SEM image), and the average particle size of the primary particles can be obtained by testing in the scanning electron microscope SEM image. The SEM test parameters can be set to: the operating voltage (EHT) is 10.00kV, the InLens detector is used, the working distance is 4.6mm, and the magnification is 1000X.

The above materials can be used as lithium supplements, which can supplement lithium ions for the positive electrode film layer, compensate for the irreversible lithium ion loss in the system, increase the capacity, and thus increase the energy density of the battery cell.

[0214] 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 more of Na, K, and Mg, M3 includes one or more 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, and Ce, and Y3 includes one or more of O and F.

When the mass content of the lithium supplement is within the above range, it can supplement lithium ions for the positive electrode film layer, compensate for the irreversible lithium ion loss in the system, increase the capacity, and thus increase the energy density of the battery cell.

[0217] The lithium replenisher can be located in the same layer as the positive electrode active material, or in different layers. When the lithium replenisher and the positive electrode active material are located in different layers, the lithium replenisher can be located in the lithium replenisher layer, and the positive electrode active material can be located in the positive electrode active material layer. In other words, the positive electrode film layer includes a lithium replenisher layer and a positive electrode active material layer. The positive electrode active material layer can be arranged on at least one side of the positive electrode current collecting part, and the lithium replenisher layer can be located between the positive electrode active material layer and the positive electrode current collecting part. Alternatively, the lithium replenisher layer can be arranged on at least one side of the positive electrode current collecting part, and the positive electrode active material layer can be located between the lithium replenisher layer and the positive electrode current collecting part. Optionally, the lithium replenisher layer can be located between the positive electrode active material layer and the positive electrode current collecting part. During the cyclic charge and discharge process of the battery cell, the lithium replenisher in the lithium replenisher layer can be gradually released into the system to make up for the lithium loss of the battery system.

[0218] In some embodiments, the positive electrode film layer may further include a positive electrode conductive agent. The present application embodiment has no particular restrictions on the type of positive electrode conductive agent. As an example, the positive electrode conductive agent includes at least one of superconducting carbon, conductive graphite, acetylene black, carbon black, Ketjen black, carbon dots, carbon nanotubes, graphene and carbon nanofibers. In some embodiments, based on the mass of the positive electrode film layer, the mass content of the positive electrode conductive agent is ≤5%.

In some embodiments, based on the mass of the positive electrode film layer, the mass content of the positive electrode binder is ≤5%.

[0220] The positive electrode film layer is usually formed by coating the positive electrode slurry on the positive electrode current collector, drying and cold pressing. The positive electrode slurry is usually formed by dispersing the positive electrode active material, optional conductive agent, optional binder and any other components in a solvent and stirring them evenly. The solvent can be N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP), but is not limited thereto.

[0221] The positive electrode sheet does not exclude other additional functional layers besides the positive electrode film layer. For example, in some embodiments, the positive electrode sheet of the embodiment of the present application further includes a positive electrode conductive layer sandwiched between the positive electrode current collector and the positive electrode film layer and disposed on the surface of the positive electrode current collector. In other embodiments, the positive electrode sheet of the embodiment of the present application further includes a protective layer covering the surface of the positive electrode film layer.

[0223] When the negative electrode current collector adopts a composite structure, the positive electrode current collector may adopt a conventional positive electrode current collector, such as an aluminum foil, etc. Alternatively, when the negative electrode current collector adopts a composite structure, the positive electrode current collector may also adopt a composite structure.

[0224] The negative electrode current collector has two surfaces opposite to each other in the thickness direction of the negative electrode sheet, and the negative electrode film layer is arranged on any one or both of the two opposite surfaces of the negative electrode current collector.

Optionally, the negative electrode metal layer is arranged on both surfaces of the negative electrode support layer, and the negative electrode metal layer is located between the negative electrode support layer and the negative electrode film layer. The negative electrode support layer supports and protects the negative electrode conductive layer. Since the negative electrode support layer generally adopts organic polymer materials, the density of the negative electrode support layer is usually less than the density of the negative electrode metal layer, so that the weight energy density of the battery cell can be significantly improved compared with the traditional metal current collector.

[0226] In addition, the negative electrode metal layer uses a metal layer with a small thickness, which can further improve the volume energy density of the battery. In addition, since the negative electrode support layer can play a good role in bearing and protecting the negative electrode metal layer located on its surface, it is not easy to cause the pole piece fracture phenomenon commonly seen in traditional current collectors.

[0227] In some embodiments, the thickness of the negative electrode current collector is 2 μm to 8.5 μm, and can be 2 μm to 6.5 μm.

[0230] When the thickness of the negative electrode metal layer is within the above range, the thickness of the negative electrode metal layer is relatively thin, and its conductivity is relatively excellent, which is beneficial to the improvement of the fast charging performance of the battery cell.

[0231] In some embodiments, the metal material in the negative electrode metal layer includes at least one of aluminum, copper, nickel, titanium, silver, nickel-copper alloy, and aluminum-zirconium alloy; optionally, the metal material in the negative electrode metal layer includes copper. The above materials have excellent electrical conductivity, which makes the internal resistance of the battery cell relatively small and the polarization small, which is conducive to improving the fast charging performance of the battery cell.

[0232] Optionally, the negative electrode metal layer may further include a conductive carbon material, such as at least one of graphite, acetylene black, graphene, and carbon nanotubes.

[0233] The negative electrode metal layer can be formed on the negative electrode support layer by at least one of mechanical rolling, bonding, vapor deposition, and electroless plating.

[0235] When the thickness of the negative electrode support layer is within the above range, the mechanical strength of the negative electrode current collector can be effectively improved; and the bonding force between the negative electrode support layer and the negative electrode metal layer is strong, so that the structural stability of the negative electrode current collector is high.

[0236] In some embodiments, the negative electrode support layer includes an organic material, and the organic material includes at least one of an insulating polymer material and a conductive polymer material. Optionally, the organic material includes an insulating polymer material. When the negative electrode support layer is made of an insulating material, it is non-conductive, which can increase the short-circuit resistance of the battery cell when a short circuit occurs under abnormal circumstances, greatly reduce the short-circuit current, greatly reduce the short-circuit heat generation, and improve the reliability of the battery cell.

[0243] In some embodiments, the negative electrode plate further includes a negative electrode conductive layer, which is located between the negative electrode film layer and the negative electrode current collector. The negative electrode conductive layer can further improve the conductivity of the negative electrode plate, reduce the heat generation of the negative electrode plate, and thus reduce the heat generation of the battery cell. In addition, the negative electrode conductive layer can improve the bonding force between the negative electrode current collector and the negative electrode film layer, improve the connection strength between the two, and reduce the contact resistance.

[0244] In some embodiments, the thickness of the negative electrode conductive layer is 0.1 μm to 2 μm. For example, the thickness of the negative electrode conductive layer can be 0.1 μm, 0.5 μm, 0.8 μm, 1 μm, 1.2 μm, 1.5 μm, 1.6 μm, 1.8 μm, 2 μm, or a range consisting of any two of the above values.

[0245] When the thickness of the negative electrode conductive layer is within the above range, the conductivity of the negative electrode plate can be further improved, the heat generation of the negative electrode plate can be reduced, thereby reducing the heat generation of the battery cell; and the energy density of the battery cell can be improved.

[0246] In the embodiment of the present application, the thickness of the negative electrode conductive layer has a well-known meaning in the art and can be detected by using equipment and methods well-known in the art, and the test method for the negative electrode conductive layer mentioned above can be used.

[0247] In some embodiments, the negative electrode conductive layer includes one or more of a negative electrode conductive agent and a negative electrode binder.

[0255] 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 because the negative electrode active material in the negative electrode film layer is stacked more densely, the contact resistance between particles is small, which can further reduce the resistance of the electrode sheet, thereby reducing heat generation.

[0256] In the embodiment of the present application, the compaction density of the negative electrode film layer of the battery cell at 100% charge state has a meaning well known in the art and can be detected using equipment and methods well known in the art, and its detection method is such as the compaction density test method of the positive electrode film layer mentioned above.

[0258] When the single-sided coating weight of the negative electrode film layer is within the above range, the heat generated per unit area of ​​the negative electrode sheet will not be too large, and the energy density of the battery cell can be improved.

[0259] In the embodiment of the present application, the single-sided coating weight of the negative electrode film layer has a meaning well known in the art and can be detected using equipment and methods well known in the art, such as the single-sided coating weight test method of the film layer described above.

[0260] In some embodiments, the powder resistivity of the negative electrode active material is 0.005 Ω•cm to 0.043 Ω•cm, and may be 0.04 Ω•cm. For example, the powder resistivity of the negative electrode active material may be 0.043 Ω•cm, 0.04 Ω•cm, 0.035 Ω•cm, 0.03 Ω•cm, 0.025 Ω•cm, 0.02 Ω•cm, 0.015 Ω•cm, 0.01 Ω•cm, 0.005 Ω•cm, or a range consisting of any two of the above values.

[0261] The powder resistivity of the negative electrode active material is relatively low, so that the resistance of the negative electrode sheet is relatively low and the heat generation of the battery cell is less.

[0262] In the embodiment of the present application, the powder resistivity of the negative electrode active material is well known in the art and can be detected using equipment and methods well known in the art, such as the powder resistivity test method of the positive electrode active material mentioned above.

[0264] When the powder compaction density of the negative electrode active material at 20000N is within the above range, the energy density of the battery cell can be improved. Moreover, since the negative electrode active material in the negative electrode film layer can be more densely stacked and the contact resistance between particles is smaller, the resistance of the electrode sheet can be further reduced, thereby reducing heat generation.

[0265] In the embodiments of the present application, the powder compaction density of the material has a meaning known in the art and can be tested by methods and equipment known in the art in accordance with the test standard GB / T24533-2009.

[0268] When the charge gram 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.

[0269] In the embodiment of the present application, the charge gram capacity of the negative electrode active material at a rate of 0.1C has a meaning well known in the art and can be detected using equipment and methods well known in the art, and the detection method is the same as the charge gram capacity test method of the positive electrode active material at a rate of 0.1C mentioned above.

When the thickness of the second negative electrode film layer is within the above range, the gradient pore difference between the first negative electrode film layer and the second negative electrode film layer can be increased to reduce the tortuosity of lithium ion transmission and improve the fast charging capability of the battery cell.

[0312] In the implementation manner of the present application, for example, the battery charging upper limit voltage is 3.65V and the battery discharging cut-off voltage is 2.0V. The BOL full charge test steps are as follows: at 25°C, charge the battery to 3.65V at a charge rate of 0.33C of the nominal capacity, then charge to 0.05C at a constant voltage of 3.65V, let stand for 10 minutes, then discharge to 2.0V at a discharge rate of 0.33C, let stand for 10 minutes, the above charge and discharge is one cycle, cycle 10 times, then charge to 3.65V at a charge rate of 0.33C of the nominal capacity, then charge to 0.05C at a constant voltage of 3.65V. The BOL is in a fully charged state. In the BOL fully charged state, the negative electrode sheet is disassembled, and a tomographic scanning electron microscope is used to observe the cross-section in the thickness direction of the middle area of ​​the negative electrode sheet. The first negative electrode film layer and the second negative electrode film layer are distinguished according to the interface between the two areas, and the thickness of the two areas are measured respectively. For example, the thickness of 10 positions of the first negative electrode film layer is measured respectively, and the average value thereof is calculated as the average value of the first negative electrode film layer, and the thickness of 10 positions of the second negative electrode film layer is measured, and the average value thereof is calculated as the average value of the second negative electrode film layer.

[0313] In some embodiments, after the battery cell is fully charged at the end of life (EOL) test, the thickness of the first negative electrode film layer is 15μm to 70μm, such as 15μm, 16μm, 17μm, 18μm, 19μm, 20μm, 21μm, 22μm, 23μm, 24μm, 25μm, 26μm, 27μm, 28μm, 29μm, 30μm, 35μm, 40μm, 43μm, 45μm, 50μm, 55μm, 60μm, 65μm, 66μm, 67μm, 68μm, 69μm, 70μm or a range consisting 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 be regulated to increase the gradient pore difference between the upper and lower layers, reduce the tortuosity of lithium ion transmission, and improve the fast charging capability of the battery cell.

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 be regulated to increase the gradient pore difference between the upper and lower layers, reduce the tortuosity of lithium ion transmission, and improve the fast charging capability of the battery cell.

[0315] In the implementation manner of the present application, for example, the battery charging upper limit voltage is 3.65V and the battery discharging cut-off voltage is 2.0V. The specific steps of the EOL full charge test are as follows: at 60°C, charge the battery to 3.65V at a charging rate of 0.33C of the nominal capacity, then charge it to 0.05C at a constant voltage of 3.65V, let it stand for 10 minutes, then discharge it to 2.0V at a discharge rate of 0.33C, let it stand for 10 minutes. The above charge and discharge is one cycle, and the test is stopped until the battery capacity decays to 80% of the nominal capacity. Then charge to 3.65V at a constant current of 0.33C at 25°C, and charge to 3.65V at a constant voltage of 0.05C, which is the EOL fully charged state. In the EOL fully charged state, disassemble the negative electrode plate, use a tomographic scanning electron microscope to observe the cross-section in the thickness direction of the middle area of ​​the negative electrode plate, distinguish the first negative electrode film layer and the second negative electrode film layer according to the interface of the two areas, and measure the thickness of the two respectively. For example, measure the thickness of 10 positions of the first negative electrode film layer respectively, calculate the average value thereof as the average value of the first negative electrode film layer, measure the thickness of 10 positions of the second negative electrode film layer, and calculate the average value thereof as the average value of the second negative electrode film layer.

When the mass content of lithium is within the above range, the number of lithium ions that can move freely in the negative electrode film layer can be relatively large, which can further shorten the distance that lithium ions diffuse to the surface of the negative electrode film layer, increase the rate of lithium ion deintercalation, and improve the fast charging performance of the battery cell.

[0325] Exemplarily, the first lithium-containing binder includes a lithium acrylate-acrylonitrile-acrylamide-hydroxyethyl acrylate copolymer, wherein the lithium acrylate-acrylonitrile-acrylamide-hydroxyethyl acrylate copolymer is derived from a lithium acrylate monomer, an acrylonitrile monomer, an acrylamide monomer, and a hydroxyethyl acrylate monomer, and the molar ratio of the lithium acrylate monomer, the acrylonitrile monomer, the acrylamide monomer, and the hydroxyethyl acrylate monomer is 30% to 50%: 15% to 45%: 5% to 20%: 20% to 35%.

The lithium element in the second lithium-containing binder can exist in the form of ions, which can increase the number of lithium ions that can move freely in the negative electrode film layer, shorten the distance that lithium ions diffuse to the surface of the negative electrode film layer, increase the rate of lithium ion deintercalation, and improve the fast charging performance of the battery cell.

[0328] The first lithium-containing binder and the second lithium-containing binder may be made of the same material or different materials.

[0329] Optionally, the mass content of lithium in the second lithium-containing binder is 3% to 10%, optionally 3% to 8%. Exemplarily, the mass content of lithium in the second lithium-containing binder is 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9%, 10% or a range consisting of any two of the above values. When the mass content of lithium is within the above range, the number of lithium ions that can move freely in the negative electrode film layer can be relatively large, which can further shorten the distance that lithium ions diffuse to the surface of the negative electrode film layer, increase the rate of lithium ion deintercalation, and improve the fast charging performance of the battery cell.

[0330] Exemplarily, the second lithium-containing binder includes a lithium acrylate-acrylonitrile-acrylamide-hydroxyethyl acrylate copolymer, wherein the lithium acrylate-acrylonitrile-acrylamide-hydroxyethyl acrylate copolymer is derived from a lithium acrylate monomer, an acrylonitrile monomer, an acrylamide monomer, and a hydroxyethyl acrylate monomer, and the molar ratio of the lithium acrylate monomer, the acrylonitrile monomer, the acrylamide monomer, and the hydroxyethyl acrylate monomer is 30% to 50%: 15% to 45%: 5% to 20%: 20% to 35%. For example, the molar ratio of the lithium acrylate monomer, the acrylonitrile monomer, the acrylamide monomer, and the hydroxyethyl acrylate monomer is 35%: 30%: 15%: 20%, or 40%, 20%, 10%, 30%, or 45%, 15%, 20%, 20%, etc.

[0331] The lithium-containing binder of the above material can provide a certain amount of lithium ions for the negative electrode film layer, thereby improving the rapid charging performance of the battery cell. It is not easy to swell during the charging and discharging process and has a stable structure, thereby improving the cycle performance of the negative electrode film layer during rapid charging and discharging.

[0332] In some embodiments, the first negative electrode film layer further includes a negative electrode binder, and the second negative electrode film layer further includes a negative electrode binder. The negative electrode binder in the first negative electrode film layer and the negative electrode binder in the second negative electrode film layer each independently include at least one of styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR), water-soluble unsaturated resin SR-1B, water-based acrylic resin (e.g., polyacrylic acid PAA, polymethacrylic acid PMAA, sodium polyacrylate PAAS), polyacrylamide (PAM), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), sodium alginate (SA) and carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS).

[0333] In some embodiments, the total content of the first lithium-containing binder and the negative electrode binder in the first negative electrode film layer is greater than the total content of the second lithium-containing binder and the negative electrode binder in the second negative electrode film layer, and the mass content of the first lithium-containing binder relative to the mass of the first negative electrode film layer is less than the mass content of the second lithium-containing binder relative to the mass of the second negative electrode film layer.

[0334] In some embodiments, the negative electrode film layer may further optionally include a negative electrode conductive agent. The present application embodiment has no particular restrictions on the type of negative electrode conductive agent. As an example, the negative electrode conductive agent may include at least one of superconducting carbon, conductive graphite, acetylene black, carbon black, Ketjen black, carbon dots, carbon nanotubes, graphene, and carbon nanofibers. In some embodiments, based on the total weight of the negative electrode film layer, the mass content of the negative electrode conductive agent is ≤5%.

[0335] In some embodiments, the negative electrode film layer may further include a negative electrode binder. In some embodiments, based on the total weight of the negative electrode film layer, the mass content of the negative electrode binder is ≤5%.

[0337] The negative electrode film layer is usually formed by coating the negative electrode slurry on the negative electrode current collector, drying and cold pressing. The negative electrode slurry is usually formed by dispersing the negative electrode active material, optional conductive agent, optional binder, and other optional auxiliary agents in a solvent and stirring them evenly. The solvent can be N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) or deionized water, but is not limited thereto.

[0338] The negative electrode sheet does not exclude other additional functional layers besides the negative electrode film layer. For example, in some embodiments, the negative electrode sheet of the embodiment of the present application further includes a negative electrode conductive layer sandwiched between the negative electrode current collector and the negative electrode film layer and disposed on the surface of the negative electrode current collector. In other embodiments, the negative electrode sheet of the embodiment of the present application further includes a protective layer covering the surface of the negative electrode film layer.

[0340] When the ratio CB of the capacity per unit area of ​​the negative electrode film layer to the capacity per unit area of ​​the positive electrode film layer in the battery cell is within the above range, there are sufficient sites in the negative electrode film layer for lithium embedding, which can reduce the risk of lithium plating and is conducive to fast charging.

[0341] In the embodiments of the present application, the CB value has a well-known meaning in the art and can be detected using equipment and methods well-known in the art. For example, the capacity of the negative electrode film layer per unit area and the capacity of the positive electrode film layer per unit area are calculated separately, and the ratio of the two is calculated to obtain the CB value.

[0342] Specifically, take the battery charging upper limit voltage as 3.65V and the battery discharging cut-off voltage as 2.0V as an example for explanation. The capacity of the positive electrode film layer per unit area refers to the actual lithium-removable capacity of the positive electrode active material. The test method is as follows: disassemble the battery in the PRS340 / 11-119-11 Braun glove box, take the positive electrode plate, and assemble it into a CR2430 model semi-button battery with a positive electrode-lithium plate. The area of ​​the positive electrode plate used is amm 2 , where the electrolyte is 1M LiPF 6 In a solution with EC / EMC / DEC=3 / 5 / 2 (mass ratio); then the assembled half-button battery is left to stand for 3h, and the test is carried out at 25℃, and 0.1C is used to charge (Charge) in the voltage range of 2.0V to 3.65V to delithium, and then 0.05C is used to discharge (Discharge) lithium to 2.0V, and the cycle is repeated twice. The discharge capacity of the second cycle is recorded as YmAh. The positive electrode sheet of the actual battery design is bmm long and cmm wide. The number of surfaces of the positive electrode active material coated on the positive electrode collector is d, then the capacity of the positive electrode film layer per unit area = Y / a*b*c*d.

[0343] Specifically, the capacity of the negative electrode film layer per unit area refers to the actual lithium-insertable capacity of the negative electrode active material. The test method is: disassemble the battery in a PRS340 / 11-119-11 Braun glove box, take the negative electrode plate, and assemble it into a CR2430 model semi-button battery with a negative electrode-lithium plate. The area of ​​the negative electrode plate used is fmm 2 , where the electrolyte is 1M LiPF 6 In a solution with EC / EMC / DEC=3 / 5 / 2 (mass ratio); then the assembled half-button battery is left to stand for 3h, and the test is carried out at 25℃, and 0.1C is used to discharge (Discharge) in the voltage range of 2V-0V to insert lithium, and then 0.05C is used to charge (Discharge) to 2V, and the cycle is repeated twice.

The number of surfaces of the negative electrode active material coated on the negative electrode collector is d, then the negative electrode lithium insertion capacity = Z / f*h*i*d.

[0344] [Isolation film] In the embodiment of the present application, the isolation membrane includes a base membrane with a porous structure.

[0345] In some embodiments, the base film includes at least one of glass fiber, non-woven fabric, and polyolefin. The base film can 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 can be the same or different, without particular limitation.

[0346] Optionally, the polyolefin includes at least one of polyethylene, polypropylene and polyvinylidene fluoride.

[0347] In some embodiments, the porosity of the base film is 20% to 70%, optionally 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 consisting of any two of the above values.

[0348] When the porosity of the base film in the embodiment of the present application is within the above range, the migration ability of lithium ions in the isolation film can be improved, and the internal resistance of the battery cell can be further reduced, thereby reducing heat generation.

[0349] In the embodiments of the present application, porosity refers to the percentage of the pore volume in the separator to the total volume of the separator. The porosity can be tested in accordance with the standard GB / T36363-2018 "Polyolefin separator for battery monomers". It should be noted that the actual test process can be slightly different from the standard test process according to the difference in test instruments, test errors, and in order to eliminate the test influence on porosity as much as possible, so as to obtain a more accurate test value.

[0350] In some embodiments, the thickness of the base film is 6 μm to 12 μm, and optionally 6 μm to 9 μm. Exemplarily, the thickness of the base film is 6 μm, 6.5 μm, 7 μm, 7.5 μm, 8 μm, 8.5 μm, 9 μm, 9.5 μm, 10 μm, 10.5 μm, 11 μm, 11.5 μm, 12 μm, or a range consisting of any two of the above values.

[0351] When the thickness of the base film is within the above range, the migration path of lithium ions in the base film is shorter, which can further reduce the internal resistance of the battery cell and thus reduce heat generation.

[0352] In the embodiment of the present application, the isolation film may be a base film, and optionally, the isolation film further comprises a functional layer disposed on at least one side of the base film, and the functional layer may comprise inorganic particles to improve the heat resistance of the isolation film. Optionally, the functional layer is disposed on both sides of the base film.

[0353] 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, the first functional layer includes first inorganic particles, the second functional layer is located on the other side of the base film, the second functional layer includes composite particles, the composite particles include second inorganic particles and multiple non-fluoropolymer particles, the second inorganic particles are attached to the surface of the non-fluoropolymer particles and / or dispersed in the interior of the non-fluoropolymer particles.

[0354] The first functional layer and the second functional layer have good heat resistance and can improve the heat resistance of the isolation film.

[0355] Optionally, the first functional layer may include a binder, optionally including at least one of a fluorine-containing binder or a polyacrylic binder, such as polyvinylidene fluoride.

[0356] 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 first inorganic particles can improve the heat resistance of the first functional layer.

[0357] In the embodiments of the present application, the thickness of the base film has a meaning well known in the art, and can be detected using meanings and equipment well known in the art. For example, a newly prepared isolation membrane can be taken as a sample, or a battery cell that has been fully discharged (discharged to the lower limit cut-off voltage so that the battery's charged state is approximately 0% SOC) can be reversely disassembled, and the isolation membrane can be obtained from the battery cell. The isolation membrane is dried and used as a sample, and the isolation membrane is cut 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 isolation membrane and its various layers.

[0358] The non-fluorinated polymer particles in the second functional layer refer to polymers that are non-fluorinated polymers, for example, the non-fluorinated polymer particles include acrylate copolymers, and optionally, the acrylate copolymers include acrylate-acrylonitrile-acrylamide-propylene copolymers, and the acrylate copolymers have excellent bonding properties and high bonding stability with the base film. The molar ratio of each monomer in the copolymer can be any ratio, for example, the molar ratio is 35%:30%:15%:20%, or 40%, 20%, 10%, 30%, or 45%, 15%, 20%, 20%, etc.

[0359] The second inorganic particles in the composite particles make it difficult for the non-fluorinated polymer particles to adhere to each other due to the high temperature treatment during the granulation process, so that the composite particles have pores, which is conducive to the transmission of lithium ions and improves the ion conductivity of the separator. The second inorganic particles can also increase the compression modulus of the composite particles. During the charge and discharge process, the composite particles are not easy to deform, making the structure of the separator more stable, which can improve the dynamic performance of the battery cell and improve the fast charging performance. Optionally, compared with the first functional layer, the second functional layer is arranged close to the negative electrode sheet. Since the composite particles are not easy to deform, the separator basically does not cause side effects such as extrusion to the negative electrode sheet, making the dynamic performance of the negative electrode sheet stable. Accordingly, the first functional layer is arranged close to the positive electrode sheet.

[0360] 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, and optionally, the second inorganic particles include silicon oxide. The second inorganic particles can improve the heat resistance of the second functional layer, and can form composite particles with non-fluorine polymers to further improve the cycle stability and dynamic performance of the isolation membrane, and improve the cycle performance and fast charging performance of the battery cell.

[0361] The average particle size of the second inorganic particles is 5nm to 100nm, optionally 10nm to 100nm, optionally 5nm to 20nm. Exemplarily, the average particle size of the second inorganic particles is 5nm, 10nm, 15nm, 20nm, 25nm, 30nm, 35nm, 40nm, 45nm, 50nm, 55nm, 60nm, 65nm, 70nm, 75nm, 80nm, 85nm, 90nm, 95nm, 100nm or a range consisting of any two of the above values. 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.

[0362] In the embodiment of the present application, the average particle size of the second inorganic particles has a meaning well known in the art and can be detected using equipment and methods well known in the art. For example, after obtaining the isolation film, the isolation film is dried as a sample, and the isolation film is cut with an ion beam cutter to form a cross section. Subsequently, a scanning electron microscope is used to measure the particle size of the second inorganic particles in the isolation film. The particle sizes of multiple, for example, 50, second inorganic particles are measured, and the average value is calculated as the average particle size of the second inorganic particles.

[0363] In some embodiments, the ionic conductivity of the isolation membrane is 0.3 mS / cm to 0.6 mS / cm. For example, the ionic conductivity of the isolation 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 consisting of any two of the above values.

[0364] When the ionic conductivity of the separator is within the above range, the migration ability of lithium ions of the separator can be further improved, thereby improving the fast charging performance of the battery cell.

[0365] In the embodiments of the present application, the ionic conductivity of the isolation membrane has a meaning known in the art and can be detected using equipment and methods known in the art, for example, Prepare the 2025 button battery for testing: In a vacuum glove box, put a lithium sheet into the negative electrode shell of the battery, add 150 μL of electrolyte, and the electrolyte is 1 mol / L LiPF 6 In the solution of EC / EMC / DEC=3 / 5 / 2 (mass ratio), an isolation film (area 3.14cm 2 , with a thickness of 12 μm) to make it close to the lithium sheet, then add 25 μL of electrolyte, and finally place a positive electrode sheet (the positive electrode sheet can be the positive electrode sheet in Example 1) on it and package it. The assembled button battery is taken out of the vacuum glove box and placed for 24 hours for the next test.

[0366] Test: On an electrochemical workstation, at 10 -1 ~10 6 The test was carried out in the frequency range of Hz to obtain the isolation membrane resistance Rb, and the ionic conductivity σ (unit: mS / cm) was calculated by the following formula: σ = L / (R b ×S) Where: R b is the isolation film resistance, L and S are the thickness and area of ​​the isolation film to be measured respectively.

[0367] [Electrolyte] In some embodiments, the battery cell further includes an electrolyte.

[0368] During the charge and discharge process of the battery cell, the active ions are embedded and released back and forth between the positive electrode and the negative electrode, and the electrolyte plays the role of conducting the active ions between the positive electrode and the negative electrode.

[0488] In the embodiment of the present application, the fast charging performance of the battery cell is relatively excellent. Under this condition, the coating weight of the positive electrode film layer and the negative electrode film layer is usually thin, and the use of a composite collecting part structure can significantly increase the volume ratio of the positive electrode film layer and the negative electrode film layer, thereby increasing the volume energy density of the battery cell; and since the composite collecting part is light in weight, the weight energy density of the battery cell can also be increased.

[0489] Moreover, when the positive electrode current collecting part comprises aluminum material, the volume energy density of the battery cell can be more significantly improved; when the negative electrode current collecting part comprises copper material, the weight energy density of the battery cell can be more significantly improved.

[0497] The discharge strategy is as follows: discharge at a constant current of 0.33C to a cut-off voltage, for example, 2.0V.

[0498] The test results are shown in Table 2.

[0499] Table 2

[0500] By adjusting the coating weight of the positive electrode film layer and the negative electrode film layer, the volume energy density of the battery cell can be improved. However, when the coating weight is too high, although the energy density is significantly improved, the risk of lithium plating is relatively high.
