Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of batteries, and relates to a composite electrode sheet, a preparation method thereof and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Lithium-ion batteries have developed rapidly due to advantages such as high energy density and long cycle life, and are widely used in consumer electronics, electric vehicles and large-scale energy storage power stations. Most commercially available lithium-ion battery products currently use liquid electrolytes, which have approached the energy density limit, and there are also problems such as electrolyte leakage and battery short circuit. Moreover, when there is an internal or external short circuit, an adverse exothermic reaction may cause the internal temperature to rise rapidly and thermal runaway, which will bring serious safety hazards. All-solid-state batteries avoid the use of organic liquid electrolytes and can improve the safety problems of lithium-ion batteries. However, problems such as difficult film formation of solid electrolytes, poor compatibility between solid electrolytes and positive and negative electrodes, and low ionic conductivity of electrolyte membranes are still bottlenecks restricting the development and application of all-solid-state batteries.

[0003] Currently, the research focus of the prior art mainly concentrates on improving the ionic conductivity of solid electrolytes. However, the interfacial problem of difficult compatibility between solid electrolytes and electrodes is the key to solving the practical application of all-solid-state batteries. The specific reasons are as follows: Most of the existing preparation processes of all-solid-state batteries use transfer printing. After coating an electrolyte layer on a substrate such as a film such as PET or aluminum foil, it is then transferred to the electrode, or a solid electrolyte membrane is directly prepared using a non-woven fabric separator. In order to make the electrode layer and the solid electrolyte layer contact tightly, an isostatic pressing method is usually used. However, in all-solid-state batteries, the contact between the solid electrolyte layer and the electrode layer is rigid, and there is a huge ion transport impedance between the two phases, and the interfacial problem still cannot be completely solved. At the same time, this interfacial impedance will continuously accumulate during the battery cycle, resulting in an increase in internal polarization of the battery until it fails.

[0004] Based on the above research, it is necessary to provide a composite electrode sheet, which can improve the cycle stability of the battery, reduce the impedance, and effectively improve the interfacial problem of all-solid-state batteries. Summary of the Invention

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0046] Figure 1 is a schematic structural diagram of the all-solid-state battery of the present invention;

[0047] Among them, 11-negative current collector, 12-negative active material layer, 21-positive current collector, 22-positive active material layer, 31-negative-side solid electrolyte layer, 32-positive-side solid electrolyte layer. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0048] The technical solutions of the present invention will be further described below through specific embodiments. Those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments are only for helping to understand the present invention and should not be regarded as specific limitations on the present invention.

[0049] In a specific embodiment, the present invention provides a method for preparing a composite electrode sheet, and the preparation method includes the following steps:

[0050] Coat an electrode paste on at least one surface of a current collector to obtain an electrode paste coating. When the electrode paste coating is not dry, coat a solid electrolyte paste on the surface of the electrode paste coating, and then perform drying and rolling to obtain the composite electrode sheet.

[0051] When the present invention prepares the electrode sheet, a solid electrolyte paste is coated, and the solid electrolyte paste is coated when the electrode paste coating is not dry, that is, the electrode paste coating is a wet film, so that partial penetration can be achieved at the place where the electrode paste and the solid electrolyte paste contact. If the solid electrolyte paste is directly coated on the surface of the electrode sheet after drying and rolling, there is still an interface problem between the electrode coating and the solid electrolyte layer. Therefore, the present invention solves the contact problem between the electrode coating and the solid electrolyte layer inside the composite electrode sheet.

[0052] After the present invention coats the solid electrolyte paste, a solid electrolyte layer can be formed on the surface of the electrode coating. During the assembly process of the all-solid-state battery, the contact between the traditional electrode sheet and the solid electrolyte layer is converted into the contact between the solid electrolyte layers, which improves the interface problem of the all-solid-state battery. That is, the present invention also solves the problem of external interface contact of the electrode sheet. Therefore, the present invention solves both the internal interface contact problem and the external interface contact problem of the electrode sheet, effectively improves the interface performance of the all-solid-state battery, optimizes the interface stability, reduces the impedance of the all-solid-state battery, and improves the rate and cycle performance of the all-solid-state battery.

[0053] In some embodiments, the method of coating the solid electrolyte paste includes electrostatic spraying.

[0054] In the prior art, the methods for coating the solid electrolyte paste generally include a direct coating process and an atomic layer deposition technique. Among them, the direct coating process is to directly coat the solid electrolyte paste on the electrode sheet. This method has a simple preparation process, but it is difficult to precisely control the thickness of the solid electrolyte layer, the thickness is relatively thick, and the uniformity is poor. The atomic layer deposition technique can achieve uniform coating, but the speed is slow and the equipment cost is high. Therefore, the present invention adopts an electrostatic spraying technique. Through the electrostatic spraying technique, an ultra-thin solid electrolyte layer is sprayed, and the solid electrolyte material is uniformly coated on the surface of the electrode coating, which can make the solid electrolyte layers on the positive electrode side and the negative electrode side in close contact, increase the lithium ion conductivity, improve the cycle stability and capacity of the battery, and effectively improve the interface problem of the all-solid-state battery.

[0055] In some embodiments, the electrostatic spraying is carried out at a dew point temperature of -60 to -40 °C, for example, it can be -60 °C, -50 °C or -40 °C, but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values within the numerical range are equally applicable.

[0056] In some embodiments, the voltage of the electrostatic spraying is 8 - 12 KV, for example, it can be 8 KV, 9 KV, 10 KV, 11 KV or 12 KV, but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values within the numerical range are equally applicable.

[0057] In some embodiments, the distance from the nozzle of the electrostatic spraying to the surface of the electrode paste coating is 5 - 20 cm, for example, it can be 5 cm, 10 cm, 15 cm or 20 cm, but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values within the numerical range are equally applicable.

[0058] In some embodiments, the spray width of the electrostatic spraying < 30 cm, for example, it can be 25 cm, 20 cm, 15 cm, 10 cm or 5 cm, but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values within the numerical range are equally applicable.

[0059] The spray width of the electrostatic spraying described in the present invention refers to the width of the fan-shaped area formed by the atomized coating sprayed by the spray gun.

[0060] In some embodiments, the coating thickness of the solid electrolyte paste is 10 - 20 μm, for example, it can be 5 μm, 10 μm, 15 μm or 20 μm, but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values within the numerical range are equally applicable.

[0061] The coating thickness of the solid electrolyte paste described in the present invention matches the coating method when the electrode paste coating is not dry, which not only ensures the internal contact problem of the solid electrolyte layer in the composite electrode pole piece, but also ensures the external contact problem of the solid electrolyte layer in the composite electrode pole piece. It is preferably coated within a specific range. If the coating thickness is too small, it is difficult to effectively prepare due to process limitations. If the coating thickness is too large, the energy density and power density of the battery will decrease.

[0062] In some embodiments, the thickness of the electrode paste coating is 50 - 150 μm, for example, it can be 50 μm, 100 μm or 150 μm, but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values within the numerical range are equally applicable.

[0067] In some embodiments, the mass ratio of the first solid electrolyte to the first binder is (97 - 99):(1 - 3). For example, it can be 97:3, 98:2, or 99:1, but is not limited to the listed values. Other unlisted values within the numerical range are equally applicable.

[0073] In some embodiments, in the negative electrode slurry, the mass ratio of the negative electrode active material, the third solid electrolyte, the conductive agent, and the third binder is (60 - 90):(10 - 40):(1 - 2):(1 - 3). For example, it can be 60:35:2:3, 70:20:1.5:2, 80:10:1:1, or 90:30:2:3, but is not limited to the listed values. Other unlisted values within the numerical range are equally applicable.

[0074] In some embodiments, the first solid-state electrolyte, the second solid-state electrolyte, and the third solid-state electrolyte each independently comprise any one or a combination of at least two of a sulfide solid-state electrolyte, a halide solid-state electrolyte, or an oxide solid-state electrolyte, wherein the sulfide solid-state electrolyte comprises Li 10 GeP 2 S 12 、Li 7 P 3 S 11 、Li 6 PS 5 X (X includes Cl, Br), or Li 2 S-P 2 S 5 or any combination of at least two thereof; the halide solid-state electrolyte comprises Li 2 MnCl 4 and / or Li 2 ZnCl 4 ; the oxide solid-state electrolyte comprises LLZO (Li 7 La 3 Zr 2 O 12 ), LAGP (Li 1.5 Al 0.5 Ge 1.5 (PO 4 ) 3 ), or LATP (Li 1.3 Al 0.3 Ti 1.7 (PO 4 ) 3 ) or any combination of at least two thereof.

[0075] In some embodiments, the D50 particle sizes of the first solid-state electrolyte, the second solid-state electrolyte, and the third solid-state electrolyte are each independently 3 - 6 μm, for example, they can be 3 μm, 4 μm, 5 μm, or 6 μm, but are not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values within the numerical range are equally applicable.

[0076] In some embodiments, the positive electrode active material comprises any one or a combination of at least two of lithium cobaltate, ternary material, lithium iron phosphate, lithium-rich manganese-based material, or spinel-type lithium manganate.

[0077] In some embodiments, the negative electrode active material comprises any one or a combination of at least two of graphite, amorphous carbon, lithium titanate, SiO x / C composite material, or Sn-based composite material.

[0078] In some embodiments, the conductive agent includes any one or a combination of at least two of carbon black, conductive graphite, carbon fiber, carbon nanotubes, or graphene.

[0081] In some embodiments, the first binder includes the oily binder or the aqueous binder, which is determined by whether it is coated on the surface of the positive electrode paste coating or the surface of the negative electrode paste coating.

[0082] In some embodiments, the first solvent, the second solvent, and the third solvent include p-xylene.

[0083] In some embodiments, the drying temperature is 70 - 100 °C, for example, it can be 70 °C, 80 °C, 90 °C, or 100 °C, and the time is 9 - 15 h, for example, it can be 9 h, 11 h, 13 h, or 15 h, but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values within the numerical range are equally applicable.

[0085] In some embodiments, the electrode coating and the solid electrolyte layer penetrate each other at the contact area.

[0086] Since the solid electrolyte paste of the present invention is coated when the electrode paste coating is not dried, in the finally obtained composite electrode sheet, the electrode coating and the solid electrolyte layer will penetrate each other at the contact area, thereby improving the interfacial contact between the electrode coating and the solid electrolyte layer.

[0087] In some embodiments, the thickness of the solid electrolyte layer is 5 - 15 μm, for example, it can be 5 μm, 8 μm, 10 μm, 12 μm, or 15 μm, but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values within the numerical range are equally applicable.

[0088] The solid electrolyte layer of the present invention is preferably within a specific thickness range. If the coating thickness is too small, it is restricted by the preparation process, and it is difficult to prepare a thinner solid electrolyte layer. If the coating thickness is too large, the energy density and power density of the battery will decrease.

[0089] In some embodiments, the thickness of the electrode coating is 40 - 140 μm, for example, it can be 40 μm, 80 μm, 120 μm or 140 μm, but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values within the numerical range are equally applicable.

[0090] In some embodiments, the solid electrolyte layer includes a first solid electrolyte and a first binder with a mass ratio of (97 - 99):(1 - 3), for example, it can be 97:3, 98:2 or 99:1, but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values within the numerical range are equally applicable.

[0091] In some embodiments, the electrode coating includes a positive electrode active material, a second solid electrolyte, a conductive agent and a second binder with a mass ratio of (60 - 90):(10 - 40):(1 - 2):(1 - 3), for example, it can be 60:35:2:3, 70:20:1.5:2, 80:10:1:1 or 90:30:2:3, or includes a negative electrode active material, a third solid electrolyte, a conductive agent and a third binder with a mass ratio of (60 - 90):(10 - 40):(1 - 2):(1 - 3), for example, it can be 60:35:2:3, 70:20:1.5:2, 80:10:1:1 or 90:30:2:3, but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values within the numerical range are equally applicable.

[0092] In order to match different types of electrode sheets, the type of binder in the solid electrolyte layer should vary with different types of electrode sheets. When the electrode coating in the present invention is a positive electrode coating, the binder used in the solid electrolyte layer is the same as that in the positive electrode coating, preferably an oily binder. When the electrode coating in the present invention is a negative electrode coating, the binder used in the solid electrolyte layer is the same as that in the negative electrode coating, preferably an aqueous binder.
