Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the technical field of secondary batteries, and particularly relates to a lithium-ion secondary battery and an electrical device. Background Art

[0002] With the wide application of energy storage products such as communication, household appliances, power tools, electric bicycles, electric vehicles, solar energy, and wind power generation, lithium-ion batteries, as a new type of green energy, have shown broad development prospects. Among them, the rapid development of the new energy vehicle industry, especially the rapid growth of the electric vehicle market, has put forward higher requirements for the performance of lithium batteries, including higher energy density, higher voltage, longer cycle life, and better safety performance, etc.

[0003] Among them, silicon anodes are regarded as one of the key materials to improve the energy density of lithium batteries due to their high theoretical specific capacity. However, silicon anodes will undergo significant volume expansion during charge and discharge, resulting in problems such as anode structure failure and reduced cycle life. In addition, under high voltage conditions (≥4.55V), the crystal structure of the cathode material is prone to phase transformation, resulting in cracks, fragmentation, and metal ion dissolution in the material. This structural damage will seriously affect the electrochemical performance of the cathode material, such as capacity decline and internal resistance increase, leading to cathode material failure and affecting the cycle performance.

[0004] These requirements have promoted the innovative research on key materials of lithium batteries. Among them, as an important component of lithium batteries, the optimization of the performance of the electrolyte has become a research hotspot. Summary of the Invention

[0038] The technical solution of the present application has the following advantages:

[0039] A lithium-ion secondary battery provided by the present application includes a positive electrode sheet, a negative electrode sheet, and an electrolyte; wherein, the negative electrode sheet includes a negative electrode active material, and the negative electrode active material includes a silicon-based material; the electrolyte includes a polynitrile compound and a compound A with a specific structure, the polynitrile compound includes a dinitrile and a trinitrile, and the trinitrile includes 1,3,6-hexanetricarbonitrile; based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass percentage content of the polynitrile compound is W1%, 1 ≤ W1 ≤ 12; the mass percentage content of the compound A is W2%, 0.1 ≤ W2 ≤ 10; the contents of the compound A and the polynitrile compound satisfy: 0.05 ≤ W2 / W1 ≤ 5. Through the cooperation and content limitation of the dinitrile and the trinitrile HTCN and the compound A, the present application can effectively inhibit the capacity attenuation caused by the volume expansion of the silicon-based negative electrode and the dissolution of metal ions in the positive electrode material under high voltage, and improve the cycle performance and the first Coulomb efficiency of the battery.

[0048] As described in the background art, in order to overcome the defects of the prior art such as the rapid attenuation of the high - voltage lithium - ion battery capacity at high temperatures, poor initial Coulomb efficiency and stability performance, the present application provides the following technical solutions:

[0049] According to one aspect of the present application, there is provided a lithium - ion secondary battery, including a positive electrode sheet, a negative electrode sheet, and an electrolyte;

[0050] Wherein, the negative electrode sheet includes a negative electrode active material, and the negative electrode active material includes a silicon - based material;

[0051] The electrolyte includes a polynitrile compound and Compound A. The polynitrile compound includes dinitrile and trinitrile, and the trinitrile includes 1,3,6 - hexanetricarbonitrile;

[0052] The general formula composition of Compound A is as follows:

[0053]

[0054] Wherein, L is O or a linking bond; R is selected from an unsubstituted or Ra - substituted C2 - C6 alkyl group, an unsubstituted or Ra - substituted C2 - C6 alkenyl group, an unsubstituted or Ra - substituted C2 - C6 alkynyl group, an unsubstituted or Ra - substituted C2 - C6 nitrogen - containing heteroaryl group, an unsubstituted or Ra - substituted C6 - C 12 aryl group, and the substituent Ra of each group is independently selected from fluorine or a C1 - C6 fluoroalkyl group; R1 is selected from one of fluorine or a C1 - C6 fluoroalkyl group;

[0055] Based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass percentage content of the polynitrile compound is W1%, 1 ≤ W1 ≤ 12; the mass percentage content of Compound A is W2%, 0.1 ≤ W2 ≤ 10;

[0056] The content of Compound A and the polynitrile compound satisfies: 0.05 ≤ W2 / W1 ≤ 5.

[0057] As an example, based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass percentage content of the polynitrile compound can be 1%, 3%, 5%, 7%, 9%, 10%, 11%, 12%, or within the range composed of any of the above values; the mass percentage content of Compound A can be 0.1%, 0.5%, 1%, 3%, 5%, 7%, 9%, 10%, or within the range composed of any of the above values; the content ratio W2 / W1 of Compound A and the polynitrile compound can be 0.05, 0.1, 0.5, 0.8, 1, 1.2, 1.5, 1.8, 2, 2.5, 3, 4, 5, or within the range composed of any of the above values.

[0058] Through the combination of dinitrile and trinitrile HTCN, the combination of polynitrile compounds and compound A, and the special regulation of the content, the present application can effectively inhibit the high-temperature capacity decay of high-voltage lithium-ion batteries and improve the initial Coulombic efficiency. Specifically, when dinitrile and trinitrile are used in combination, the trinitrile compound preferably includes HTCN because the antioxidant property of HTCN is stronger than that of other nitriles. It can remain undecomposed in a voltage system above 4.58V, can preferentially adsorb on the surface of the positive electrode material, occupy the active sites of metal elements, and improve the dissolution of metal elements in the positive electrode. However, its compatibility with the negative electrode silicon-based material is not very good. Nitrile substances are embedded in the silicon-based material to form a SEI film with poor quality, which blocks the deintercalation of lithium ions and cannot effectively relieve the volume expansion of the silicon-based material, damaging the interface of the negative electrode and reducing the capacity performance and initial efficiency; compared with other nitrile substances, in addition to improving the dissolution of metal ions, HTCN can also form an oxide film on the surface of the positive electrode to wrap the surface of the positive electrode, further preventing the occurrence of side reactions with the electrolyte. Due to the presence of fluorine elements and sulfonate groups / sulfonyl groups in compound A, the electronic structure and chemical properties of the molecule are changed, which makes compound A have specific reduction ability and reactivity in the electrolyte: it can be preferentially reduced compared with traditional film-forming additives to form a relatively dense interface film, and can also form a fixed target binding with the silicon-based material, stabilizing the interface of the silicon-based material and preventing the silicon-based material from cracking and the volume from expanding, so as to form a stable solid electrolyte interface on the surface of the negative electrode; compound A preferentially forms a denser and more stable SEI film on the surface of the negative electrode than the polynitrile compound. This SEI film is mainly composed of substances such as lithium alkyl carbonate, ethers, and LiF, forming a better protective layer, effectively isolating the direct contact between nitrile substances in the electrolyte and the negative electrode, thereby preventing further damage to the negative electrode by nitrile substances; effectively inhibiting the capacity loss of the battery and improving the initial efficiency of the battery. If the content of the polynitrile compound is higher than 12%, it will lead to a large internal resistance and polarization of the battery, resulting in an accelerated decline in the cyclic capacity retention rate. If it is lower than 1%, the dissolution of metal ions in the material on the positive electrode side under high voltage is obvious and the cycle life is poor; if the content of compound A is higher than 20%, it will lead to over-reduction at the negative electrode, forming a relatively thick SEI film with a large internal resistance and difficult lithium-ion insertion. If it is lower than 2%, a stable interface protection cannot be formed at the negative electrode; when the content ratio W2 / W1 of compound A to the polynitrile compound is higher than 5, the attenuation of the high-temperature cyclic capacity retention rate is relatively fast, the Coulombic efficiency is too low, and the capacity loss is large. When W2 / W1 is lower than 0.05, a relatively stable interface cannot be formed at the negative electrode, the solvent is reduced, resulting in a serious deterioration of the high-temperature storage performance.

[0059] In some optional embodiments, the contents of compound A and the polynitrile compound satisfy: 2 ≤ W1 + W2 ≤ 20; as an example, the sum W1 + W2 of the contents of compound A and the polynitrile compound can be 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 18, 20, or within the range composed of any of the above values. By limiting the sum of their dosages in this application, the fluorophenyl ester compound preferentially forms a denser and more stable SEI film on the negative electrode surface than the polynitrile compound. This SEI film is mainly composed of substances such as lithium alkyl carbonate, ethers, LiF, etc., covering the negative electrode surface, forming a good protective layer, effectively isolating the direct contact between nitrile substances in the electrolyte and the negative electrode, thereby preventing further damage to the negative electrode by nitrile substances; effectively inhibiting capacity loss and improving the initial efficiency of the battery. If the total amount of compound A and the polynitrile compound is too high, it will lead to a large battery impedance, attenuation of the cycle life and high-temperature cycle capacity retention rate. If it is too low, a stable interfacial protection cannot be formed on the positive electrode side, resulting in insufficient protection, the solvent will be oxidized, resulting in poor high-temperature performance of the battery and gas generation, etc.

[0060] In some optional embodiments, the contents of compound A and the polynitrile compound satisfy: 0.5 ≤ W2 / W1 ≤ 3; by limiting the proportional relationship between the contents of compound A and the polynitrile compound in this application, the initial Coulomb efficiency and cycle capacity retention rate of the lithium-ion secondary battery can be further improved.

[0061] In some optional embodiments, the mass ratio of the trinitrile to the dinitrile is 1:0.16 - 2; as an example, the mass ratio of the trinitrile to the dinitrile can be 1:0.16, 1:0.2, 1:0.3, 1:0.5, 1:0.8, 1:1, 1:1.3, 1:1.5, 1:1.8, 1:2, or within the range composed of any of the above values. By regulating the mass ratio of the trinitrile to the dinitrile in this application, the battery cycle performance can be further improved. If the above range is not satisfied, nitrile substances are more likely to embed in the silicon-based negative electrode, forming a SEI film with poor quality, unable to effectively relieve the volume expansion of the silicon-based negative electrode, damaging the interface of the negative electrode, and causing attenuation of the battery cycle performance.

[0062] And / or, the dinitrile includes at least one of succinonitrile (SN), adiponitrile (ADN), 1,5-dicyanopentane, 1,6-dicyanohexane, 1,7-dicyanoheptane, tetramethylsuccinonitrile, 2-methylglutaronitrile, glutaronitrile, azodiisobutyronitrile, pimelonitrile, 1,2-dicyanobenzene, 1,3-dicyanobenzene, 1,4-dicyanobenzene, 3,5-dioxo-heptanedinitrile, 1,4-bis(cyanoethoxy)butane, ethylene glycol bis(2-cyanoethyl) ether, diethylene glycol bis(2-cyanoethyl) ether, triethylene glycol bis(2-cyanoethyl) ether, tetraethylene glycol bis(2-cyanoethyl) ether, 1,3-bis(2-cyanoethoxy)propane, 1,4-bis(2-cyanoethoxy)butane, 1,5-bis(2-cyanoethoxy)pentane, ethylene glycol bis(4-cyanobutyl) ether, 1,4-dicyano-2-butene, 1,4-dicyano-2-ethyl-2-butene, 1,4-dicyano-2,3-dimethyl-2-butene, 1,4-dicyano-2,3-diethyl-2-butene, 1,6-dicyano-3-hexene, 1,6-dicyano-2-methyl-3-hexene, and 1,6-dicyano-2-methyl-5-methyl-3-hexene;

[0063] And / or, the trinitrile further includes at least one of glycerol trinitrile, 1,2,3-tris(2-cyanoethoxy)propane, 1,2,4-tris(2-cyanoethoxy)butane, 1,1,1-tris(cyanoethoxymethylene)ethane, 1,1,1-tris(cyanoethoxymethylene)propane, 3-methyl-1,3,5-tris(cyanoethoxy)pentane, 1,2,7-tris(cyanoethoxy)heptane, 1,2,6-tris(cyanoethoxy)hexane, 1,2,5-tris(cyanoethoxy)pentane, and organophosphorus compounds containing three cyano groups.

[0064] In some alternative embodiments, the electrolyte further includes an organophosphorus compound containing three cyano groups, and the organophosphorus compound containing three cyano groups has any one of the following general formula structures:

[0065]

[0066] Wherein, m1, m2, m3, n1, n2, and n3 are each independently selected from integers greater than or equal to 1, preferably integers between 1 and 30;

[0067] Preferably, the organophosphorus compound containing three cyano groups has any one of the following structures:

[0068]

[0069] In this application, compared with ordinary polynitrile compounds, the organophosphorus compound containing three cyano groups can form a stable passivation film on the surface of the SEI film on the basis of the film formation of compound A, further inhibiting the volume change of the silicon-based material and not damaging the structure of the silicon-based material. The organophosphorus compound containing three cyano groups can replace part of the content of ordinary dinitrile and trinitrile compounds in the electrolyte. On the basis of maintaining the positive electrode protection effect, it can further reduce the damage to the silicon-based negative electrode material, improve the capacity retention rate of the battery, especially the high-temperature capacity retention rate, and improve the initial efficiency.

[0070] In some alternative embodiments, based on the mass of the electrolyte, the mass percentage content of the organophosphorus compound containing three cyano groups is W3%, and 0.1 ≤ W3 ≤ 6; as an example, based on the mass of the electrolyte, the mass percentage content of the organophosphorus compound containing three cyano groups can be 0.1%, 0.5%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, or within the range composed of any of the above values. In this application, when the content of the organophosphorus compound containing three cyano groups is higher than 6%, it will cause a large internal resistance and polarization of the battery, resulting in an accelerated decline in the cycle capacity retention rate. When it is lower than 0.1%, it will not be able to further improve the problem of metal ion dissolution and increase the cycle life. Limiting the content of the organophosphorus compound containing three cyano groups to the above range can achieve further optimization of the cycle performance.

[0071] Preferably, the contents of compound A and the organophosphorus compound containing three cyano groups satisfy: 0.1 ≤ W2 / W3 ≤ 3, and more preferably 0.5 ≤ W2 / W3 ≤ 1. The ratio W2 / W3 of compound A to the organophosphorus compound containing three cyano groups can be 0.1, 0.5, 0.8, 1, 1.2, 1.5, 1.8, 2, 2.5, 3, or within the range composed of any of the above values. In this application, when the content ratio W2 / W3 of compound A to the organophosphorus compound containing three cyano groups is higher than 1, it will affect the high-temperature cycle capacity retention rate and Coulomb efficiency, causing a certain capacity loss. When W2 / W3 is lower than 0.5, the interface stability formed on the negative electrode becomes poor, and the high-temperature storage performance cannot be further improved. By limiting the ratio of the contents of compound A and the organophosphorus compound containing three cyano groups to the above range in this application, the balance between various battery performances can be achieved.

[0072] In some alternative embodiments, compound A has any of the following structures:

[0073]

[0074]

[0075] In some alternative embodiments, the electrolyte further includes a fluorinated carboxylate compound. Based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass percentage content of the fluorinated carboxylate compound is W4%, where 5 ≤ W4 ≤ 40; as an example, based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass percentage content of the fluorinated carboxylate compound can be 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40%, or within the range composed of any of the above values.

[0076] In this application, under high-temperature conditions, compound A may react with other components in the electrolyte such as lithium salts, resulting in a decrease in the stability of the electrolyte, which easily causes the SEI film to rupture or reorganize during the cycling process, reducing the stability of the SEI film. The fluorinated carboxylate compound helps to reduce the volatilization and decomposition of the electrolyte at high temperatures, reduces the internal resistance of the battery, and can improve the stability of compound A, participate in the formation of a stable and dense SEI film, improve the stability of the SEI film at high temperatures, and reduce the polarization degree and internal resistance of the battery. At the same time, the fluorinated carboxylate compound can also promote the rapid diffusion of lithium ions in the SEI film and improve the high-temperature cycling performance. If the content of the fluorinated carboxylate compound is higher than 40%, the viscosity of the electrolyte will increase, resulting in insufficient kinetics. If it is lower than 5%, it cannot stabilize the interface of the electrolyte at the positive electrode, is easily oxidized, and causes poor high-temperature cycling capacity retention.

[0077] Preferably, the sum of the contents of compound A and the fluorinated carboxylate compound satisfies: 10 ≤ W2 + W4 ≤ 20; as an example, the sum of the contents of compound A and the fluorinated carboxylate compound W2 + W4 can be 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, or within the range composed of any of the above values. By limiting the total amount of compound A and the fluorinated carboxylate compound in this application, the balance between high-temperature storage performance and high-temperature cycling performance can be achieved.

[0078] Preferably, the fluorinated carboxylate compound includes at least one of ethyl methyl fluorocarbonate, diethyl fluorocarbonate, dimethyl fluorocarbonate, ethyl fluoroacetate, methyl fluoropropionate, ethyl fluoropropionate, and propyl fluoropropionate.

[0079] In some alternative embodiments, the electrolyte further includes a boron-containing additive. Based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass percentage content of the boron-containing additive is W5%, where 0.5 ≤ W5 ≤ 5; as an example, based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass percentage content of the boron-containing additive can be 0.5%, 1%, 2%, 2.5%, 3%, 4%, 5%, or within the range composed of any of the above values.

[0080] Those skilled in the art can understand that the boron-containing additive can participate in film formation at the positive and negative electrodes, reduce the reduction reaction of the solvent, improve the stability of the interface, make the high-temperature interface more firm, improve the high-temperature performance, so that the capacity can be normally exerted. The addition of boron element can also promote the diffusion and intercalation of lithium ions in the positive and negative electrodes, and reduce the interface resistance between the negative electrode and the electrolyte. This helps more lithium ions to migrate smoothly from the positive electrode to the negative electrode during the first charging process, and quickly diffuse and intercalate in the negative electrode, so that more electrical energy can be released during the first discharge, thereby further improving the capacity performance and high-temperature performance of the lithium battery.

[0081] Preferably, the boron-containing additive includes but is not limited to at least one of lithium difluorooxalate borate, lithium tetrafluorooxalate borate, and lithium bis(oxalato)borate.

[0082] In some alternative embodiments, the Dv50 particle size of the silicon-based material is 5-20 μm, and the sphericity is above 0.8; as an example, the Dv50 particle size of the silicon-based material can be 5 μm, 8 μm, 10 μm, 11 μm, 12 μm, 13 μm, 14 μm, 15 μm, 16 μm, 17 μm, 18 μm, 19 μm, 20 μm, or within the range composed of any of the above values, and the sphericity can be 0.8, 0.82, 0.85, 0.88, 0.90, 0.93, 0.95, 0.97, 0.99, or within the range composed of any of the above values.

[0083] Those skilled in the art can understand that too small a particle size of the silicon-based material will lead to an unstable structure of the electrode sheet, a large specific surface area, resulting in severe expansion and contraction; too large a particle size of the silicon-based material will lead to a decrease in the specific surface area and a decrease in the ion migration rate, resulting in a decline in the battery cycle performance; and too small a sphericity will increase the specific surface area, increase the formation area of the SEI film and the consumption of the electrolyte. In this application, the silicon-based material that meets the above sphericity range usually has a smaller specific surface area, which means that under the same volume, the contact area between the spherical particles and the electrolyte is smaller, thereby reducing the formation area of the SEI film, thereby reducing the volume expansion of the silicon-based material, and the particle size of the silicon-based material meets the above range, and the silicon-based material has a larger specific surface area, increasing the contact area with the electrolyte, which is beneficial to the intercalation and deintercalation process of lithium ions, thereby improving the cycle capacity retention rate of the battery.

[0084] And / or, based on the mass of the negative electrode active material, the mass percentage of silicon element is P1%, where 3 ≤ P1 ≤ 30. As an example, based on the mass of the negative electrode active material, the mass percentage of silicon element can be 3%, 5%, 8%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, or within the range composed of any of the above values. By limiting the silicon element content in this application, the balance between energy density and safety performance can be achieved. If the silicon content is too high, the thickness of the battery will increase relatively fast, bringing greater potential safety hazards. If the silicon content is too low, the energy density design of the battery will be insufficient.

[0085] Those skilled in the art can understand that during the charge and discharge process of the battery, lithium ions are intercalated and deintercalated between the positive electrode plate and the negative electrode plate, and the electrolyte plays a role in conducting ions between the positive electrode plate and the negative electrode plate. The separator is arranged between the positive electrode plate and the negative electrode plate, mainly to prevent short circuit between the positive and negative electrodes, and at the same time allows lithium ions to pass through.

[0086] As an example, the positive electrode plate includes a positive electrode current collector and a positive electrode active material layer. The positive electrode current collector has two surfaces opposite to each other in its own thickness direction, and the positive electrode active material layer is arranged on any one or both of the two opposite surfaces of the positive electrode current collector. The materials, compositions, and manufacturing methods of the positive electrode plate used in the lithium ion secondary battery of this application can include any technologies disclosed in the prior art. As an example, the positive electrode active material is selected from layered lithium composite oxides, and its chemical general formula is Li (1+x) Ni y Co z M (1-y-z) O2, where -0.1 ≤ x ≤ 1; 0 ≤ y ≤ 1, 0 ≤ z ≤ 1, and 0 ≤ y + z ≤ 1; M is one or several of Mg, Zn, Ga, Ba, Al, Fe, Cr, Sn, V, Mn, Sc, Ti, Nb, Mo, and Zr.

[0087] As an example, the negative electrode plate includes a negative electrode current collector and a negative electrode active material layer. The negative electrode current collector has two surfaces opposite to each other in its own thickness direction, and the negative electrode active material layer is arranged on any one or both of the two opposite surfaces of the negative electrode current collector.

[0135] Test Case

[0136] The lithium ion secondary batteries prepared in the examples and comparative examples were subjected to performance tests, and the specific test methods are as follows:

[0137] 1. High temperature cycle performance test

[0138] The batteries prepared in the examples and comparative examples were subjected to a 45°C cycle test. The specific test method is as follows:

[0139] The test sample was allowed to stand for 10 min at 45°C; discharged at 1C to a lower limit voltage of 3.0V, and allowed to stand for 10 min; charged at 1C to an upper limit voltage of 4.55V at 45°C, with a cutoff current of 0.025C, and allowed to stand for 10 min; discharged at a rate of 1.2C to a cutoff voltage of 3.0V in a 45°C constant temperature box environment, and allowed to stand for 10 min. This was one cycle. After 600 cycles, the discharge capacity Q1 after 600 cycles of high-temperature cycling and the initial discharge capacity Q0 were recorded. The high-temperature cycle capacity retention rate (%) = Q1 / Q0×100%.

[0140] 2. First Coulomb efficiency

[0141] Charge the lithium battery at a constant current density of 0.2C until it reaches a predetermined charging voltage of 4.55V, and record the amount of electricity during the charging process, i.e., the first charging capacity. Shelf treatment: After charging is completed, the lithium battery is shelved for a period of time (e.g., 5 minutes) so that the internal state of the battery can stabilize again. First discharge: Discharge the lithium battery at a constant current density (0.2C) until the battery voltage drops to a predetermined discharge cut-off voltage (e.g., 3V), and record the amount of electricity during the discharge process. First coulomb efficiency = first charging capacity / first discharge capacity × 100%.

[0142] 3. High temperature storage performance

[0143] The batteries prepared in the examples and comparative examples were subjected to high-temperature storage, and the specific test method was as follows:

[0144] Under the environment of 25°C ± 3°C, discharge at 0.5C to the lower limit voltage, stand still for 10 min, place the battery cell in a constant temperature oven at 25°C, charge it fully at a constant current of 0.5C, with a cut-off current of 0.02C. After being fully charged, store the battery cell in an 85°C environment. After storing for 6 h, measure the thickness of the battery cell body and record the thickness expansion rate of the battery cell.

[0145] 4. Room-temperature cycling performance

[0146] The batteries prepared in the examples and comparative examples were subjected to a 25°C cycling test, and the specific test method was as follows:

[0147] Test the incoming sample and let it stand still for 10 min at 25°C; discharge at 1C to the lower limit voltage of 3.0V and stand still for 10 min; charge at 1C to the upper limit voltage of 4.55V at 25°C, with a cut-off current of 0.025C, and stand still for 10 min; in a constant temperature oven environment at 25°C, discharge at a rate of 1.2C to the cut-off voltage of 3.0V and stand still for 10 min; cycle 1000 times, record the capacity Q1 after 1000 room-temperature cycles and the initial discharge capacity Q0, then the room-temperature cycling capacity retention rate (%) = Q1 / Q0 × 100%.

[0148] 5. Metal ion dissolution

[0149] Take the battery after 600 high-temperature cycles, disassemble it in a drying room, gently scrape off the negative electrode active layer with a ceramic knife, and then completely dissolve the sample with acid to ensure that metal ions enter the solution. Calibrate the ICP instrument with a standard solution to ensure accuracy. Convert the digested sample into an aerosol through an atomizer. In a high-temperature plasma, metal ions are excited to a high-energy state, and a spectrometer is used to separate light of different wavelengths, and the concentration of each metal ion in the sample is calculated according to the standard curve.

[0150] The specific test results are shown in the following table:

[0151] Table 3

[0152]

[0153]

[0154] From the comparison of the data of the above examples and comparative examples, it can be seen that through the combination of dinitrile and trinitrile HTCN with compound A and the special regulation of the content, the present application can effectively inhibit the high-temperature capacity attenuation of high-voltage lithium-ion batteries, improve the first Coulomb efficiency, and reduce the dissolution of positive electrode metal ions under high voltage.

[0155] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely examples given for clear illustration and not limitations on the implementation manners. For those of ordinary skill in the art, other different forms of changes or alterations can be made based on the above description. It is not necessary and impossible to list all implementation manners here. And the obvious changes or alterations derived therefrom still fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
