Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of battery technology, and more particularly to a secondary battery and an electrical device. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, as the application scope of secondary batteries has become increasingly wide, they have been widely used in energy storage power systems such as hydropower, thermal power, wind power and solar power plants, as well as in many fields such as power tools, electric bicycles, electric motorcycles, electric cars, and aerospace.

[0003] With the significant advancements in rechargeable batteries, higher demands have been placed on their fast-charging performance and battery life. However, during fast charging, lithium ions can deposit on the negative electrode surface, forming a metal layer that reduces the number of lithium ions inside the battery and shortens its lifespan.

[0004] Therefore, how to balance the fast charging performance and lifespan of batteries has become an urgent technical problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This application is made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and its purpose is to provide a secondary battery and an electrical device that combine fast charging performance and service life.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, a first aspect of this application provides a secondary battery, including a negative electrode sheet. The negative electrode sheet includes a negative current collector and a negative electrode film layer located on at least one surface of the negative current collector. The negative electrode film layer includes a first film layer and a second film layer disposed between the first film layer and the negative current collector. The first film layer includes a first negative electrode active material, which includes a first graphite material. D / I G The value is 0.5 to 0.9; the second film layer includes a second negative electrode active material, which includes a second graphite material, and the second graphite material I D / I G It ranges from 0.05 to 0.2; where I D This indicates that the Raman spectrum is at 1350±50 cm⁻¹ -1 The intensity of peak D at I G This indicates that the Raman spectrum is at 1580±50 cm⁻¹. -1 The intensity of the G peak at that location. The I value of the first graphite material used in this application. D / I GA value of 0.5 to 0.9 indicates that the surface of the first graphite material has numerous defects, which can serve as additional active sites for lithium-ion intercalation. Placing this first graphite material with numerous surface defects in the outer layer (first film layer) of the negative electrode sheet increases the probability of contact between the additional active sites and the electrolyte, thereby improving the battery's fast-charging performance. Based on this, the inner layer (second film layer) of the negative electrode sheet uses I... D / I G The second graphite material has a content of 0.05 to 0.2. This second graphite material has fewer surface defects and a relatively complete structure, which helps to reduce the irreversible loss of lithium ions and thus extend the battery's lifespan.

[0007] In some embodiments, the volume average particle size Dv50 of the first graphite material is between 9.2 μm and 15.5 μm. This facilitates the formation of abundant porous structures between the particles of the first graphite material, thereby improving the lithium-ion and electron transport performance in the first film layer, and thus enhancing the kinetic performance of the secondary battery.

[0008] In some embodiments, the volume average particle size Dv50 of the second graphite material is 16.3 μm to 25.5 μm. This is beneficial for increasing the compaction density of the second film layer, thereby improving the energy density of the secondary battery. In addition, it is also beneficial for the formation of abundant porous structures between the particles of the second graphite material, improving the lithium-ion and electron transport performance in the negative electrode film layer, and thus improving the kinetic performance of the secondary battery.

[0009] In some embodiments, the BET specific surface area of ​​the first graphite material is 0.3 m². 2 / g to 3m 2 / g. When the BET specific surface area of ​​the first graphite material is within the above range, the surface of the first graphite material can provide more channels for lithium-ion insertion and extraction. During fast charging, lithium ions can be inserted into the first graphite material more quickly through these channels, reducing the lithium-ion transport distance and resistance, thereby improving the fast charging performance of the battery.

[0010] In some embodiments, the BET specific surface area of ​​the second graphite material is 0.5 m². 2 / g to 5m 2 / g. This allows the surface of the second graphite material to provide more channels for lithium-ion insertion and extraction. During fast charging, lithium ions can be inserted into the second graphite material more quickly through these channels, reducing the lithium-ion transport distance and resistance, thereby improving the battery's fast-charging performance.

[0011] In some embodiments, the tap density of the first graphite material is 0.7 g / cm³. 3 Up to 1.6 g / cm 3This facilitates the formation of a rich porous structure in the first film layer, ensuring that the battery has superior fast-charging performance.

[0012] In some embodiments, the tap density of the second graphite material is 0.8 g / cm³. 3 Up to 1.5g / cm 3 Therefore, the second graphite material can be densely packed within the second film layer, which is beneficial for accommodating more second graphite material (active material) within the second film layer, thereby increasing the energy density of the battery.

[0013] In some embodiments, the first negative electrode active material further includes a negative electrode coating layer distributed on the surface of the first graphite material, the negative electrode coating layer comprising amorphous carbon. Amorphous carbon has a relatively loose structure with abundant pores. These pores can provide more diffusion channels for lithium ions, shortening the diffusion path of lithium ions in the electrode material. By placing amorphous carbon on the surface of the first graphite material, lithium ions can more quickly pass through the negative electrode coating layer to reach the interior of the first graphite material, thereby improving the fast-charging performance of the battery.

[0014] In some embodiments, the thickness of the negative electrode coating layer is between 10 nm and 100 nm. A thickness within this range is beneficial for the secondary battery to balance fast-charging performance and energy density.

[0015] In some embodiments, the second film layer further includes a first graphite material. The first graphite material can improve the fast-charging performance of the battery. In this embodiment, by arranging the second graphite material and the first graphite material in the second film layer, it is beneficial to balance improving the fast-charging performance and lifespan of the battery.

[0016] In some embodiments, the mass ratio of the second graphite material to the first graphite material in the second film layer is (3-5):(5-7). By controlling the mass ratio of the second graphite material to the first graphite material in the second film layer within the above range, it is beneficial to further improve the fast charging performance and lifespan of the battery.

[0017] In some embodiments, the ratio of the average thickness of the first film layer to the average thickness of the second film layer is (3-5):(5-7). By controlling the ratio of the average thickness of the first film layer to the average thickness of the second film layer within the above range, it is beneficial to further improve the fast charging performance and lifespan of the battery.

[0019] In some embodiments, the second membrane layer further includes a second binder, which includes at least one selected from styrene-butadiene rubber, lithium polyacrylate, polyacrylate, polyacrylic acid, sodium polyacrylate, polyacrylamide, polyvinyl alcohol, sodium alginate, or carboxymethyl chitosan.

[0020] In some embodiments, the first binder includes at least one of styrene-butadiene rubber, lithium polyacrylate, and polyacrylate. Using these substances as the first binder helps to balance the battery's fast-charging performance, lifespan, and energy density.

[0021] In some embodiments, the second binder includes at least one of styrene-butadiene rubber, lithium polyacrylate, and polyacrylate. Using these substances as the second binder helps to balance the battery's fast-charging performance, lifespan, and energy density.

[0022] In some embodiments, the mass percentage of the first binder in the first film layer is 0.1% to 2%. This helps to prevent the pulverization and detachment of the first negative electrode active material, thereby extending the battery's lifespan. It also helps the battery achieve a high energy density.

[0023] In some embodiments, the second binder in the second film layer accounts for 0.1% to 2% of the total mass. This helps to prevent the pulverization and detachment of the second negative electrode active material, thereby extending the battery's lifespan. It also helps the battery achieve a high energy density.

[0024] In some embodiments, the first film layer further includes a first dispersant, which includes at least one of lithium carboxymethyl cellulose and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose. These substances have high ionic conductivity, and selecting them as the first dispersant is beneficial for improving the fast-charging performance of the battery.

[0025] In some embodiments, the second film layer further includes a second dispersant, which includes at least one of lithium carboxymethyl cellulose and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose.

[0026] The aforementioned substances have high ionic conductivity, and using them as a second dispersant is beneficial to improving the fast-charging performance of the battery.

[0027] In some embodiments, the first dispersant includes lithium carboxymethyl cellulose. Lithium carboxymethyl cellulose contains lithium ions, which can compensate for the loss of active lithium ions during the first charge due to the formation of the SEI film, thereby improving the first charge efficiency of the battery.

[0028] In some embodiments, the second dispersant includes lithium carboxymethyl cellulose. Lithium carboxymethyl cellulose contains lithium ions, which can compensate for the loss of active lithium ions during the first charge due to the formation of the SEI film, thereby improving the first charge efficiency of the battery.

[0029] In some embodiments, the mass percentage of the first dispersant in the first film layer is 0.3% to 1.5%. This is beneficial for achieving high energy density in the battery.

[0030] In some embodiments, the mass percentage of the second dispersant in the second film layer is 0.3% to 1.5%. This is beneficial for achieving high energy density in the battery.

[0031] In some embodiments, the first film layer further includes a first conductive agent, which includes at least one selected from superconducting carbon, acetylene black, Ketjen black, carbon dots, graphene, carbon nanofibers, carbon nanotubes, and conductive carbon black. Using the above-mentioned substances as the first conductive agent is beneficial for further improving the fast-charging performance of the battery.

[0032] In some embodiments, the second film layer further includes a second conductive agent, which includes at least one selected from superconducting carbon, acetylene black, Ketjen black, carbon dots, graphene, carbon nanofibers, carbon nanotubes, and conductive carbon black. Using the above-mentioned substances as the second conductive agent is beneficial for further improving the fast-charging performance of the battery.

[0033] In some embodiments, the first conductive agent includes carbon nanotubes and conductive carbon black. This is beneficial for further improving the fast-charging performance of the battery.

[0034] In some embodiments, the second conductive agent includes carbon nanotubes and conductive carbon black. This is beneficial for further improving the fast-charging performance of the battery.

[0035] In some embodiments, the mass percentage of the first conductive agent in the first film layer is 0.1% to 2%. This is beneficial for improving the conductivity of the first film layer while also achieving a high energy density.

[0036] In some embodiments, the mass percentage of the second conductive agent in the second film layer is 0.1% to 2%. This is beneficial for improving the conductivity of the second film layer while also achieving high energy density.

[0037] In some embodiments, the coating weight of the negative electrode film is 80 mg / 1540.25 mm. 2 Up to 170mg / 1540.25mm 2 This helps to increase the number of lithium ions released per unit area of ​​the negative electrode film, thereby increasing the energy density of the battery.

[0038] In some embodiments, the thickness of the negative electrode film layer disposed on one side of the negative electrode current collector is 40 μm to 75 μm. This is beneficial for the negative electrode film layer to achieve both high capacity, high lithium-ion and electron transport performance, and thus for the secondary battery to achieve both high energy density and fast charging performance.

[0039] In some embodiments, the compaction density of the negative electrode sheet is 1.3 g / cm³. 3 Up to 1.85 g / cm³. This helps the first film layer maintain a good pore structure, reduces the tortuosity of the negative electrode, shortens the lithium-ion transport path, thereby improving the battery's fast-charging performance and lifespan, while also maintaining high energy density.

[0040] In some embodiments, the thickness of the negative electrode current collector is 4 μm to 8 μm. A thickness within this range is beneficial for achieving high energy density in the battery, and also helps reduce the risk of cracking in the negative electrode current collector, thereby extending the battery's lifespan.

[0041] In some embodiments, the secondary battery further includes a positive electrode sheet, which comprises a positive current collector and a positive electrode film layer disposed on at least one surface of the positive current collector. The positive electrode film layer comprises a positive electrode active material, which includes a first positive electrode active material comprising a lithium phosphate with an olivine structure. The lithium phosphate with an olivine structure has a stable three-dimensional crystal lattice structure. During lithium ion insertion and extraction, this structure remains relatively stable and is not prone to structural collapse or deformation. This allows the lithium phosphate with an olivine structure to withstand multiple charge-discharge cycles without damage, thereby extending the battery's lifespan.

[0042] In some embodiments, the lithium phosphate with an olivine structure comprises a compound as shown in formula (I):

[0043] LiFe 1-x-y Mn x M 1 y PO4, formula (I);

[0044] In equation (I), M 1The lithium phosphate is selected from at least one of V, Nb, Ti, Co, Ni, Sc, Ge, Mg, Al, Zr, Mn, Hf, Ta, Mo, W, Ru, Ag, Sn, and Pb, where 0 ≤ x ≤ 1 and 0 ≤ y < 1. The crystal structure of the above lithium phosphates is stable and not prone to phase transitions, thereby further improving the lifespan of secondary batteries.

[0045] In some embodiments, the first positive electrode active material further includes a positive electrode coating layer disposed on at least a portion of the surface of the lithium phosphate-containing material, and the positive electrode coating layer includes at least one of a fast ion conductor material and a carbon material.

[0046] The carbon material is loose and porous, which allows the electrolyte and lithium iron phosphate substrate to fully and effectively contact each other, thereby improving the wetting performance of the electrolyte on the positive electrode film and thus improving the fast charging performance of the secondary battery.

[0047] Fast ion conductor materials have high ionic conductivity, and selecting a positive electrode coating containing fast ion conductor materials can help improve the fast charging performance of the battery.

[0048] In some embodiments, the mass ratio of fast ion conductor material to carbon material in the positive electrode coating layer is (0-100):(100-0). By controlling the mass ratio of fast ion conductor material to carbon material within the above range, it is beneficial to improve the fast charging performance of the battery.

[0049] In some embodiments, the positive electrode coating layer includes a first coating layer and a second coating layer; the first coating layer includes a fast ion conductor material, and the second coating layer includes a carbon material; the first coating layer is disposed between the lithium phosphate and the second coating layer; carbon materials generally have good adhesion properties, and in this embodiment, disposing the second coating layer containing carbon material on the outer surface of the first positive electrode active material is beneficial to enhancing the adhesion between the first positive electrode active material and the current collector, reducing the risk of the first positive electrode active material falling off during battery use, and improving the battery's service life.

[0050] In some embodiments, the positive electrode coating layer includes a first coating layer and a second coating layer; the first coating layer includes a fast-ion conductor material, and the second coating layer includes a carbon material, with the second coating layer disposed between the lithium phosphate and the first coating layer. In this embodiment, during lithium ion conduction, lithium ions first pass through the first coating layer composed of the fast-ion conductor material, then enter the second coating layer, and finally diffuse into the lithium phosphate, thereby accelerating the migration speed of lithium ions within the first positive electrode active material and improving the battery's fast-charging performance. Furthermore, the carbon material in the second coating layer has good conductivity, which can form a continuous conductive network between the lithium phosphate and the first coating layer, accelerating electron conduction and further improving the battery's fast-charging performance.

[0051] In some embodiments, the fast ion conductor material comprises a compound as shown in formula (II):

[0052] Li 3-b Fe 2-b M 2 b (PO4)3 Equation (II); In Equation (II), M 2 The material is selected from at least one of Ti, Zr, Hf, Ge, and Sn, where 0 ≤ b ≤ 1. These fast ion conductor materials exhibit excellent ionic conductivity, and their selection can further improve the fast-charging performance of batteries.

[0053] In some embodiments, the mass percentage of carbon in the first positive electrode active material is 1% to 1.5%. This is beneficial in two ways: firstly, it helps the first positive electrode active material achieve high capacity, which in turn helps the secondary battery achieve high energy density; secondly, it helps improve the electronic conductivity of the first positive electrode active material, which in turn improves the fast-charging performance of the lithium-ion secondary battery.

[0054] In some embodiments, the BET specific surface area of ​​the first positive electrode active material is 12 m². 2 / g to 16m 2 / g; This provides more lithium-ion insertion and extraction channels on the surface of the first positive electrode active material. During fast charging, lithium ions can be inserted into the first positive electrode active material more quickly through these channels, reducing the lithium-ion transport distance and resistance, thereby improving the battery's fast charging performance.

[0055] In some embodiments, the tap density of the first positive electrode active material is 0.8 g / cm³. 3 Up to 1.3 g / cm 3 This facilitates the formation of a rich porous structure in the positive electrode film, ensuring that the battery has superior fast-charging performance.

[0056] In some embodiments, the volume average particle size Dv50 of the first positive electrode active material is 1 μm to 3 μm, which is conducive to the formation of abundant pore structures between the particles of the first positive electrode active material, improving the lithium ion and electron transport performance in the positive electrode film, and thus enhancing the kinetic performance of the secondary battery.

[0057] In some embodiments, the compaction density of the first positive electrode active material at 50,000 N is 2.4 g / cm³. 3 Up to 2.6 g / cm 3 This results in a closer contact between the first cathode materials, which helps to improve the energy density of the battery.

[0058] In some embodiments, the positive electrode active material further includes a second positive electrode active material, which includes a lithium transition metal oxide. Lithium transition metal oxides have a higher specific capacity, and by selecting a lithium transition metal oxide as the second positive electrode active material, it is beneficial to further improve the energy density of the secondary battery.

[0059] In some embodiments, the mass ratio of the first positive electrode active material to the second positive electrode active material is (99-90):(1-10). This is beneficial for balancing the lifespan and energy density of the secondary battery.

[0060] In some embodiments, the thickness of the positive electrode film layer disposed on one side of the positive electrode current collector is 60 μm to 130 μm, which is beneficial for the positive electrode film layer to take into account high capacity, high lithium-ion and electron transport performance, and thus beneficial for the secondary battery to take into account high energy density and fast charging performance.

[0061] In some embodiments, the coating weight of the positive electrode film layer disposed on one side of the positive electrode current collector is 200 mg / 1540.25 mm. 2 Up to 400mg / 1540.25mm 2 This helps to increase the number of lithium ions released per unit area of ​​the positive electrode film, thereby increasing the energy density of the battery.

[0062] In some embodiments, the compaction density of the positive electrode sheet is 2 g / cm³. 3 Up to 3g / cm 3 This helps the positive electrode sheet maintain a better pore structure, reduces the tortuosity of the positive electrode film, shortens the lithium-ion transport path, thereby improving the battery's fast charging performance and lifespan, while also ensuring high energy density.

[0063] In some implementations, the thickness of the positive electrode current collector is 10 μm to 18 μm. This is beneficial for achieving high energy density in the battery and also helps reduce the risk of cracking in the positive electrode current collector, thereby extending the battery's lifespan.

[0064] In some embodiments, the positive electrode film layer further includes a positive electrode dispersant, which includes at least one of polyethylene glycol octylphenyl ether, polyvinylpyrrolidone, and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose. The above-mentioned positive electrode dispersant has good flexibility and elasticity, and can disperse the stress borne by the positive electrode active material during compaction. By selecting the above-mentioned positive electrode dispersant, it is beneficial to achieve a high compaction density of the positive electrode film layer, thereby improving the energy density of the battery.

[0065] In some implementations, the mass percentage of the positive electrode dispersant relative to the positive electrode film layer is 0.3% to 5%. This is beneficial for achieving high energy density in the battery.

[0066] In some embodiments, the secondary battery further includes an electrolyte comprising an electrolyte salt and a solvent; the solvent includes at least one selected from ethylene carbonate, propylene carbonate, methyl ethyl carbonate, diethyl carbonate, dimethyl carbonate, dipropyl carbonate, methyl propyl carbonate, ethyl propyl carbonate, butyl carbonate, fluoroethylene carbonate, methyl formate, methyl acetate, ethyl acetate, propyl acetate, methyl propionate, ethyl propionate, propyl propionate, methyl butyrate, ethyl butyrate, 1,4-butyrolactone, sulfolane, dimethyl sulfone, methyl ethyl sulfone, and diethyl sulfone; the electrolyte salt includes at least one selected from lithium hexafluorophosphate, lithium tetrafluoroborate, lithium perchlorate, lithium hexafluoroarsenate, lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide, lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide, lithium trifluoromethanesulfonate, lithium difluorophosphate, lithium difluorooxalate borate, lithium dioxalate borate, lithium difluorodioxalate phosphate, and lithium tetrafluorooxalate phosphate.

[0067] In some embodiments, the electrolyte further includes additives, including at least one selected from barium sulfate, polytrifluoroethyl methacrylate, bicyclic sulfate, tricyclic sulfate, tris(trimethylsilane) phosphate, and vinylene carbonate. These additives preferentially undergo electrochemical reduction reactions on the surface of the negative electrode, prior to solvent molecules in the electrolyte, to form a dense and stable SEI film. This helps suppress lithium dendrite growth and improves battery safety performance.

[0068] In some implementations, the additive accounts for 1% to 10% of the electrolyte by mass. This facilitates the formation of an SEI film of moderate thickness on the electrode surface, which on the one hand helps suppress the growth of lithium dendrites and improves the safety performance of the battery. On the other hand, it helps to balance the transport resistance of lithium ions on the negative electrode, thereby ensuring the fast charging performance of the battery.

[0069] In some embodiments, the electrolyte conductivity ranges from 10 mS / cm to 18.5 mS / cm. This helps to reduce the battery's internal impedance and decrease energy loss due to resistance during charging and discharging.

[0070] In some embodiments, the secondary battery further includes a separator, which comprises a base film with a thickness of 3 μm to 18 μm. This is beneficial for achieving high energy density in the secondary battery, and also helps to reduce the volume shrinkage rate of the base film at high temperatures, maintain the structural stability and integrity of the base film at high temperatures, reduce the risk of short circuits between the positive and negative electrodes, and improve the safety performance of the battery.

[0071] In some embodiments, the separator further includes a coating disposed on at least one side of the base film. The coating comprises heat-resistant particles interwoven to form a porous structure. Compared to a coating without a porous structure, in this embodiment, the interwoven heat-resistant particles form a porous structure, which helps reduce the coating's obstruction to ion transport, thereby improving ion transport efficiency. Furthermore, the heat-resistant particles have a small volume change with temperature. Disposing of the coating containing heat-resistant particles on the surface of the base film helps suppress the thermal shrinkage rate of the base film, thereby further reducing the risk of short circuits between the positive and negative electrodes and improving the battery's safety performance.

[0089] Graphite possesses a stable layered structure, which remains relatively stable during lithium-ion insertion and extraction, resisting significant structural changes or collapse. This allows the battery to maintain good performance even after multiple charge-discharge cycles, extending its lifespan. Therefore, graphite has become a mainstream anode active material.

[0090] As rechargeable batteries continue to develop in various fields, the market has placed higher demands on them, such as requiring them to have both fast charging capabilities and a long service life.

[0091] However, the lithium-ion diffusion rate of graphite materials is limited. When the charging current is too high (i.e., fast charging), the rate at which lithium ions embed into the graphite layer cannot keep up with the externally applied charging rate, causing lithium ions to deposit on the graphite negative electrode surface. This deposition directly reduces the number of lithium ions available for charge-discharge cycles within the battery. Because some of the deposited lithium ions may not be able to properly intercalate and re-enter the electrolyte to participate in cycling, these lithium ions are essentially "inactive" and can no longer contribute to the battery's charge-discharge function. This reduction in the number of lithium ions directly leads to a decrease in battery capacity. As the number of charge-discharge cycles increases, the battery capacity decays more severely, ultimately affecting the battery's lifespan.

[0092] Balancing fast charging performance and battery lifespan has become a pressing technical challenge.

[0093] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this application provides a secondary battery and an electrical device. This secondary battery balances fast charging performance with a long service life.

[0094] This application provides a secondary battery, including a negative electrode sheet, the negative electrode sheet including a negative current collector and a negative electrode film layer located on at least one surface of the negative current collector, the negative electrode film layer including a first film layer and a second film layer disposed between the first film layer and the negative current collector, the first film layer including a first negative electrode active material, the first negative electrode active material including a first graphite material, the first graphite material I D / I G The value is 0.5 to 0.9; the second film layer includes a second negative electrode active material, which includes a second graphite material, and the second graphite material I D / I G It ranges from 0.05 to 0.2; where I D This indicates that the Raman spectrum is at 1350±50 cm⁻¹-1 The intensity of peak D at I G This indicates that the Raman spectrum is at 1580±50 cm⁻¹. -1 The intensity of the G peak at that location.

[0095] The first graphite material used in this application is I D / I G A value of 0.5 to 0.9 indicates that the surface of the first graphite material has a large number of defects, which can serve as additional active sites for lithium-ion intercalation. Placing this first graphite material with more surface defects in the outer layer (first film layer) of the negative electrode sheet is beneficial to increasing the probability of contact between the additional active sites and the electrolyte, thereby improving the fast-charging performance of the battery.

Specifically, the negative electrode sheet is obtained by disassembling the battery, placed in a sample holder and locked in place, and a cross-section of the negative electrode sheet is cut using an argon ion cross-section polisher (e.g., the IB-09010 CP type argon ion cross-section polisher from JEOL Corporation of Japan). A scanning electron microscope (HR-TEM Talos F200) is used to acquire a SEM image of the cross-section of the negative electrode sheet. From the cross-section SEM image, it can be seen that the negative electrode sheet includes a negative current collector, a second film layer disposed on the surface of the negative current collector, and a first film layer disposed on the surface of the second film layer.

[0098] In this application, the graphite material (first graphite material, second graphite material) I D / I G The value can be tested using methods known in the art. The graphite material to be tested can be a prepared graphite material or a graphite material obtained by disassembling a battery.

[0103] The term "secondary battery" as used in this document refers to a single battery cell, battery module, or battery pack. These are explained separately below. Unless otherwise specified, the batteries involved in this application refer to secondary batteries.

[0104] Typically, a battery cell includes a positive electrode, a negative electrode, an electrolyte, and a separator. During charging and discharging, lithium ions repeatedly insert and extract between the positive and negative electrodes. The electrolyte acts as a conductor of ions between the positive and negative electrodes.

[0111] In some embodiments, the BET specific surface area of ​​the first graphite material is 0.3 m². 2 / g to 3m 2 / g. When the BET specific surface area of ​​the first graphite material is within the above range, the surface of the first graphite material can provide more channels for lithium-ion insertion and extraction. During fast charging, lithium ions can be inserted into the first graphite material more quickly through these channels, reducing the lithium-ion transport distance and resistance, thereby improving the fast charging performance of the battery. For example, the BET specific surface area of ​​the first graphite material is 0.3m². 2 / g, 0.4m 2 / g, 0.5m 2 / g, 0.6m 2 / g, 0.7m 2 / g, 0.8m 2 / g, 0.9m 2 / g、1m 2 / g, 1.5m 2 / g、2m 2 / g, 2.5m 2 / g、3m 2 / g or any range of values ​​between two numbers, but not limited to these.

[0112] In some embodiments, the BET specific surface area of ​​the second graphite material is 0.5 m². 2 / g to 5m 2 / g. When the BET specific surface area of ​​the second graphite material is within the above range, the surface of the second graphite material can provide more channels for lithium-ion insertion and extraction. During fast charging, lithium ions can be inserted into the second graphite material more quickly through these channels, reducing the lithium-ion transport distance and resistance, thereby improving the fast charging performance of the battery. For example, the BET specific surface area of ​​the second graphite material is 0.5m². 2 / g, 0.6m 2 / g, 0.7m 2 / g, 0.8m 2 / g, 0.9m 2 / g、1m 2 / g, 1.5m 2 / g、2m 2 / g, 2.5m2 / g、3m 2 / g, 3.5m 2 / g、4m 2 / g, 4.5m 2 / g、5m 2 / g or any range of values ​​between two numbers, but not limited to these.

[0114] In some embodiments, the tap density of the first graphite material is 0.7 g / cm³. 3 Up to 1.6 g / cm 3 The tap density of the first graphite material is within the aforementioned range, which is beneficial for the formation of a rich porous structure in the first film layer, ensuring that the battery has superior fast-charging performance. For example, the tap density of the first graphite material is 0.7 g / cm³. 3 0.8g / cm 3 0.9g / cm 3 1g / cm 3 1.1g / cm 3 1.2g / cm 3 1.3g / cm 3 1.4g / cm 3 1.5g / cm 3 1.6g / cm 3 Or the value between any two values ​​within a range, but not limited to this.

[0115] In some embodiments, the tap density of the second graphite material is 0.8 g / cm³. 3 Up to 1.5g / cm 3 The tap density of the second graphite material is within the aforementioned range. This allows the second graphite material to be densely packed within the second film layer, which is beneficial for accommodating more second graphite material (active material) within the second film layer, thereby improving the energy density of the battery. For example, the tap density of the second graphite material is 0.8 g / cm³. 3 0.9g / cm 3 1g / cm 3 1.1g / cm 31.2g / cm 3 1.3g / cm 3 1.4g / cm 3 1.5g / cm 3 Or the value between any two values ​​within a range, but not limited to this.

[0117] In some embodiments, the first negative electrode active material further includes a negative electrode coating layer distributed on the surface of the first graphite material, the negative electrode coating layer comprising amorphous carbon. Amorphous carbon has a relatively loose structure with abundant pores. These pores can provide more diffusion channels for lithium ions, shortening the diffusion path of lithium ions in the electrode material. By placing amorphous carbon on the surface of the first graphite material, lithium ions can more quickly pass through the negative electrode coating layer to reach the interior of the first graphite material, thereby improving the fast-charging performance of the battery.

[0118] In this application, TEM can be used to characterize the negative electrode coating layer on the surface of the first graphite material. SEM is used to collect the microstructure information of the first negative electrode active material. TEM observations show that the first graphite material has a periodically repeating lattice structure. If a regular lattice structure is found on the surface of the first graphite material, it indicates that amorphous carbon is present on the surface of the first graphite material.

[0119] In some embodiments, the thickness of the negative electrode coating layer is between 10 nm and 100 nm. A thickness within this range is beneficial for the secondary battery to balance fast-charging performance and energy density.

[0120] In this application, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) combined with focused ion beam (FIB) can be used to characterize the thickness of the negative electrode coating. The sample (first negative electrode active material) is fixed on the sample stage, and a flat cross-section is cut out of the sample surface using FIB. Then, SEM is used to image the cross-section, and the thickness of the negative electrode coating is determined by measuring the width of the negative electrode coating in the image.

[0121] In some embodiments, the second film layer further includes a first graphite material. The second graphite material can reduce the irreversible loss of active lithium ions during multiple charge-discharge cycles, slowing down the rate of battery capacity decay and extending battery life. The first graphite material can improve the battery's fast-charging performance. In this embodiment, by arranging both the second and first graphite materials in the second film layer, it is beneficial to balance improving both the battery's fast-charging performance and lifespan.

[0122] In this application, the second film layer comprises a second graphite material and a first graphite material, and can be tested using methods known in the art. The negative electrode sheet to be tested can be a prepared negative electrode sheet or a negative electrode sheet obtained by disassembling a battery. Specifically, the negative electrode sheet is mounted and locked in a sample holder, and an argon ion cross-section polisher (e.g., the JEOL IB-09010 CP type argon ion cross-section polisher) is used to cut a cross-section of the negative electrode sheet. A scanning electron microscope (HR-TEM Talos F200) is used to acquire a SEM image of the negative electrode sheet cross-section. From the cross-section SEM image, it can be seen that the negative electrode sheet includes a negative current collector, a second film layer disposed on the surface of the negative current collector, and a first film layer disposed on the surface of the second film layer. The second film layer comprises large particles and small particles. Among them, the large particles are the second graphite material, and the small particles are the first graphite material.

[0123] In some embodiments, the mass ratio of the second graphite material to the first graphite material in the second film layer is (3-5):(5-7). By controlling the mass ratio of the second graphite material to the first graphite material in the second film layer within the above range, it is beneficial to further improve the fast-charging performance and lifespan of the battery. For example, the mass ratio of the second graphite material to the first graphite material in the second film layer is 5:5, 4:6, 3:7, or any value within a range of two such values, but is not limited thereto.

[0124] In this application, the mass ratio of the second graphite material to the first graphite material in the second film layer can be tested using methods known in the art. The negative electrode sheet to be tested can be a prepared negative electrode sheet or a negative electrode sheet obtained by disassembling a battery. Specifically, the negative electrode sheet is obtained by disassembling the battery, and the first film layer is removed using a scraper to expose the second film layer. The second film layer is then removed using a scraper and collected. The second film layer is dissolved using a suitable solvent, filtered to obtain a mixture of the second graphite material and the first graphite material, and separated using the particle size difference between the two materials. The mass of the second graphite material and the mass of the first graphite material are weighed separately to determine the mass ratio of the second graphite material to the first graphite material in the second film layer.

[0125] In some embodiments, the ratio of the average thickness of the first film layer to the average thickness of the second film layer is (3-5):(5-7). By controlling the ratio of the average thickness of the first film layer to the average thickness of the second film layer within the above range, it is beneficial to further improve the fast-charging performance and lifespan of the battery. Exemplarily, the ratio of the average thickness of the first film layer to the average thickness of the second film layer is a value between 5:5, 4:6, 3:7, or any two of these values, but is not limited thereto.

The negative electrode sheet to be tested can be a fabricated negative electrode sheet or a negative electrode sheet obtained by disassembling a battery. Specifically, a scanning electron microscope (HR-TEM Talos F200) is used to acquire a cross-sectional SEM image of the negative electrode sheet. The cross-sectional SEM image clearly shows that the negative electrode sheet consists of a negative current collector, a second film layer located on the surface of the current collector, and a first film layer disposed on the surface of the second film layer. Subsequently, four sampling points are uniformly selected on the first and second film layers respectively, and the thickness of the film layer at each sampling point is accurately measured using image analysis software. The average thickness of the first film layer is obtained by averaging the thickness values ​​of the four sampling points; similarly, the average thickness of the second film layer is obtained. Finally, by calculating the ratio of the two average thicknesses, the ratio of the average thickness of the first film layer to the average thickness of the second film layer can be accurately determined.

The composite current collector may include a polymer material substrate and a metal layer formed on at least one surface of the polymer material substrate. The composite current collector may be formed by forming a metal material (copper, copper alloy, nickel, nickel alloy, titanium, titanium alloy, silver and silver alloy, etc.) on a polymer material substrate (such as a substrate of polypropylene (PP), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), polystyrene (PS), polyethylene (PE), etc.).

[0153] In some embodiments, the negative electrode film may optionally include other additives, such as thickeners (e.g., sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC-Na)).

[0154] In some embodiments, the negative electrode sheet can be prepared by dispersing the above-mentioned components for preparing the negative electrode sheet, such as negative electrode active material, conductive agent, binder and any other components, in a solvent (e.g., deionized water) to form a negative electrode slurry; coating the negative electrode slurry onto a negative electrode current collector, and then obtaining the negative electrode sheet after drying, cold pressing and other processes.

[0155] Positive electrode sheet

[0156] In some embodiments, the positive electrode includes a positive current collector and a positive electrode film layer disposed on at least one surface of the positive current collector. The positive electrode film layer includes a positive electrode active material, which includes a first positive electrode active material comprising a lithium phosphate with an olivine structure. The lithium phosphate with an olivine structure has a stable three-dimensional crystal lattice structure. During lithium ion insertion and extraction, this structure remains relatively stable and is not prone to structural collapse or deformation. This allows the lithium phosphate with an olivine structure to withstand multiple charge-discharge cycles without damage, thereby extending the battery's lifespan.

[0157] In this application, examples of lithium phosphates with an olivine structure may include, but are not limited to, at least one of lithium iron phosphate (such as LiFePO4 (also referred to as LFP)), lithium iron phosphate and carbon composites, lithium manganese phosphate (such as LiMnPO4), lithium manganese phosphate and carbon composites, lithium manganese iron phosphate, and lithium manganese iron phosphate and carbon composites.

[0158] As an example, the positive current collector has two surfaces opposite each other in its own thickness direction, and the positive electrode film layer is disposed on either or both of the two opposite surfaces of the positive current collector.

[0159] In some embodiments, the olivine-structured lithium phosphate comprises a compound as shown in formula (I): LiFe 1-x-y Mn x M 1 y PO4, Equation (I); in Equation (I), M 1 The lithium phosphate is selected from at least one of V, Nb, Ti, Co, Ni, Sc, Ge, Mg, Al, Zr, Mn, Hf, Ta, Mo, W, Ru, Ag, Sn, and Pb, where 0 ≤ x ≤ 1 and 0 ≤ y < 1. The crystal structure of the above-mentioned lithium phosphate is stable and not prone to phase transitions, thereby further improving the lifespan of the secondary battery. For example, x is a value between 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1, or any two of these values. For example, y is a value between 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1, or any two of these values.

[0160] In some embodiments, the first positive electrode active material further includes a positive electrode coating layer disposed on at least a portion of the surface of the lithium phosphate-containing material, and the positive electrode coating layer includes at least one of a fast ion conductor material and a carbon material. The carbon material is porous, enabling sufficient and effective contact between the electrolyte and the lithium iron phosphate substrate, thereby improving the wetting performance of the electrolyte on the positive electrode film layer and thus enhancing the fast-charging performance of the secondary battery. Fast ion conductor materials have high ionic conductivity; therefore, selecting a positive electrode coating layer containing a fast ion conductor material is beneficial for improving the fast-charging performance of the battery.

[0161] In some embodiments, a positive electrode coating layer is disposed on the surface of the lithium phosphate, and the positive electrode film layer includes a fast ion conductor material and a carbon material.

[0162] In some embodiments, the positive electrode coating layer includes a first coating layer and a second coating layer; the first coating layer includes a fast ion conductor material, and the second coating layer includes a carbon material; the first coating layer is disposed between the lithium phosphate and the second coating layer. Carbon materials generally have good adhesion properties. In this embodiment, placing the second coating layer containing carbon material on the outer surface of the first positive electrode active material helps to enhance the adhesion between the first positive electrode active material and the current collector, reducing the risk of the first positive electrode active material detaching during battery use and improving the battery's lifespan.

[0163] In some embodiments, the positive electrode coating layer includes a first coating layer and a second coating layer; the first coating layer includes a fast ion conductor material, the second coating layer includes a carbon material, and the second coating layer is disposed between the lithium phosphate and the first coating layer.

[0164] In this embodiment, during the conduction process, lithium ions first pass through the first coating layer composed of a fast-ion conductor material, then enter the second coating layer, and finally diffuse into the lithium phosphate-containing interior. This facilitates faster migration of lithium ions within the first positive electrode active material, improving the battery's fast-charging performance. Furthermore, the carbon material in the second coating layer possesses excellent conductivity, allowing it to form a continuous conductive network between the lithium phosphate-containing interior and the first coating layer, accelerating electron transport and further enhancing the battery's fast-charging performance.

[0165] In some embodiments, the mass ratio of fast ion conductor material to carbon material in the positive electrode coating layer is (0-100):(100-0). Controlling the mass ratio of fast ion conductor material to carbon material within this range is beneficial for improving the fast-charging performance of the battery. Exemplarily, the mass ratio of fast ion conductor material to carbon material is 0:100, 10:90, 20:80, 30:70, 40:60, 50:50, 60:40, 70:30, 80:20, 90:10, or a value within a range of any two of these values.

[0166] In some embodiments, the fast ion conductor material comprises a compound as shown in formula (II):

[0167] Li 3-b Fe 2-b M 2 b (PO4)3 (II);

[0168] In equation (II), M 2The material is selected from at least one of Ti, Zr, Hf, Ge, and Sn, where 0 ≤ b ≤ 1. The aforementioned fast ion conductor materials possess excellent ionic conductivity, and selecting these materials can further improve the fast charging performance of the battery. For example, b is a value between 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6, 0.7, 0.8, 0.9, 1, or any two of these values.

[0169] In some embodiments, the mass percentage of carbon in the first positive electrode active material is 1% to 1.5%. By controlling the mass percentage of carbon in the first positive electrode active material within the above range, it is beneficial to achieve high capacity in the first positive electrode active material, which in turn is beneficial to achieve high energy density in the secondary battery. On the other hand, it is beneficial to improve the electronic conductivity of the first positive electrode active material, which in turn improves the fast charging performance of the lithium-ion secondary battery.

[0170] In this application, the mass percentage of carbon can be tested using methods known in the art. The positive electrode to be tested can be a prepared positive electrode or a positive electrode obtained by disassembling a battery. Specifically, the positive electrode is obtained by disassembling the battery, the positive electrode film is peeled off from the positive electrode current collector, the positive electrode film is collected, and then the positive electrode film is dissolved with a suitable solvent. The first positive electrode active material is then separated, and the mass percentage of carbon in the first positive electrode active material can be determined using a carbon-sulfur analyzer, referring to standard GB / T 20123-2006.

[0171] In some embodiments, the BET specific surface area of ​​the first positive electrode active material is 12 m². 2 / g to 16m 2 / g. When the BET specific surface area of ​​the first positive electrode active material is within the above range, the surface of the first positive electrode active material can provide more lithium-ion insertion and extraction channels. During fast charging, lithium ions can be inserted into the first positive electrode active material more quickly through these channels, reducing the lithium-ion transport distance and resistance, thereby improving the fast charging performance of the battery. For example, the BET specific surface area of ​​the first positive electrode active material is 12m². 2 / g, 12.2m 2 / g, 12.4m 2 / g, 12.6m 2 / g, 12.8m 2 / g、13m 2 / g、14m 2 / g, 15m 2 / g, 16m 2 / g or any range of values ​​between two numbers, but not limited to these.

[0172] In some embodiments, the tap density of the first positive electrode active material is 0.8 g / cm³. 3 Up to 1.3 g / cm 3 The tap density of the first positive electrode active material is within the above-mentioned range, which is beneficial for the formation of a rich porous structure in the positive electrode film, ensuring that the battery has better fast-charging performance. For example, the tap density of the first positive electrode active material is 0.8 g / cm³. 3 1.1g / cm 3 0.9g / cm 3 1.0g / cm 3 1.05g / cm 3 1.15g / cm 3 1.2g / cm 3 1.25g / cm 3 1.28g / cm 3 1.3g / cm 3 Or the value between any two values ​​within a range, but not limited to this.

[0173] In some embodiments, the volume average particle size of the first positive electrode active material is 1 μm to 3 μm. This facilitates the formation of abundant porous structures between the particles of the first positive electrode active material, improving the lithium-ion and electron transport performance in the positive electrode film, thereby enhancing the kinetic performance of the secondary battery. Exemplarily, the volume average particle size Dv50 of the first positive electrode active material is a value between 1 μm, 1.1 μm, 1.2 μm, 1.3 μm, 1.4 μm, 1.5 μm, 1.6 μm, 1.7 μm, 1.8 μm, 1.9 μm, 2 μm, 2.1 μm, 2.2 μm, 2.3 μm, 2.4 μm, 2.5 μm, 2.6 μm, 2.7 μm, 2.8 μm, 2.9 μm, 3 μm, or any two of these values, but is not limited thereto.

[0174] In some embodiments, the compaction density of the first positive electrode active material at 50,000 N is 2.4 g / cm³. 3 Up to 2.6 g / cm 3 The compaction density of the first positive electrode active material is within the aforementioned range, resulting in a tighter contact between the first positive electrode materials, which is beneficial for improving the energy density of the battery. For example, the compaction density of the first positive electrode active material is 2.4 g / cm³. 3 2.5g / cm 3 2.51g / cm 3 2.52g / cm 3 2.53g / cm 3 2.54 g / cm 3 2.55g / cm 3 2.56 g / cm 32.57g / cm 3 2.58g / cm 3 2.59g / cm 3 2.60g / cm 3 Or the value between any two of them within a range.

[0175] In some embodiments, the positive electrode active material further includes a second positive electrode active material, which includes a lithium transition metal oxide. Lithium transition metal oxides have a higher specific capacity, and by selecting a lithium transition metal oxide as the second positive electrode active material, it is beneficial to further improve the energy density of the secondary battery.

[0176] In this application, examples of lithium transition metal oxides may include, but are not limited to, lithium cobalt oxides (such as LiCoO2), lithium nickel oxides (such as LiNiO2), lithium manganese oxides (such as LiMnO2, LiMn2O4), lithium nickel cobalt oxides, lithium manganese cobalt oxides, lithium nickel manganese oxides, and lithium nickel cobalt manganese oxides (such as LiNi). 1 / 3 Co 1 / 3 Mn 1 / 3 O2 (also known as NCM) 333 LiNi 0.5 Co 0.2 Mn 0.3 O2 (also known as NCM) 523 LiNi 0.5 Co 0.25 Mn 0.25 O2 (also known as NCM) 211 LiNi 0.6 Co 0.2 Mn 0.2 O2 (also known as NCM) 622 LiNi 0.8 Co 0.1 Mn 0.1 O2 (also known as NCM) 811 ), lithium nickel cobalt aluminum oxide (such as LiNi) 0.85 Co 0.1 Al 0.05 At least one of O2 and its modified compounds.

[0177] During the charging and discharging process of a battery, Li undergoes insertion / extraction and consumption, resulting in varying molar Li content at different discharge states. In the examples of positive electrode active materials in this application, the molar Li content refers to the initial state of the material, i.e., before feeding. When the positive electrode active material is applied to the battery system, the molar Li content changes after charge-discharge cycles.

[0178] In the examples of positive electrode active materials in this application, the molar content of oxygen is only a theoretical value. Oxygen release from the crystal lattice will cause changes in the molar content of oxygen, and the actual molar content of oxygen will fluctuate.

[0179] In some embodiments, the mass ratio of the first positive electrode active material to the second positive electrode active material is (99-90):(1-10). By controlling the mass ratio of the first positive electrode active material to the second positive electrode active material within the above range, it is beneficial to balance the service life and energy density of the secondary battery. For example, the mass ratio of the first positive electrode active material to the second positive electrode active material is 99:1, 98:2, 97:3, 96:4, 95:5, 94:6, 93:7, 92:8, 91:9, 90:10, or a value within a range of any two of these values.

[0180] In some embodiments, the thickness of the positive electrode film layer disposed on one side of the positive electrode current collector is 60 μm to 130 μm. By keeping the thickness of the positive electrode film layer within the above range, it is beneficial for the positive electrode film layer to achieve both high capacity, high lithium-ion and electron transport performance, thereby benefiting the secondary battery to achieve both high energy density and fast charging performance. For example, the thickness of the positive electrode film layer can be 60 μm, 70 μm, 80 μm, 90 μm, 100 μm, 110 μm, 120 μm, 130 μm, or a value within a range of any two of these values.

[0181] In some embodiments, the coating weight of the positive electrode film layer disposed on one side of the positive electrode current collector is 200 mg / 1540.25 mm. 2 Up to 400mg / 1540.25mm 2 By controlling the coating weight of the positive electrode film within the aforementioned range, the number of lithium ions released per unit area of ​​the positive electrode film can be increased, thereby improving the energy density of the battery. For example, the coating weight of the positive electrode film is 200 mg / 1540.25 mm². 2 220mg / 1540.25mm 2 240mg / 1540.25mm 2 260mg / 1540.25mm 2 280mg / 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 2360mg / 1540.25mm 2 370mg / 1540.25mm 2 380mg / 1540.25mm 2 390mg / 1540.25mm 2 400mg / 1540.25mm 2 Or a value within a range formed by any two values. Optionally, the coating weight of the positive electrode film is 250 × 1540.25 mm. 2 Up to 320 / 1540.25mm 2 .

[0182] In this application, the coating weight of the positive electrode film can be tested using methods known in the art. The positive electrode sheet to be tested can be a pre-prepared positive electrode sheet or a positive electrode sheet obtained by disassembling the battery. Specifically, the positive electrode sheet is obtained by disassembling the battery and cut into pieces with an area of ​​1540.25 mm². 2 The disc is weighed and its mass is m3. Then, the positive electrode film layer set on one side of the disc is removed and the mass of the disc is weighed and its mass is m4. The difference between m3 and m4 is taken as the coating weight of the positive electrode film layer.

[0183] In some embodiments, the compaction density of the positive electrode sheet is 2 g / cm³. 3 Up to 3g / cm 3 By maintaining the compaction density of the positive electrode sheet within the aforementioned range, it is beneficial to preserve a good pore structure in the positive electrode film, reduce the tortuosity of the positive electrode sheet, and shorten the lithium-ion transport path, thereby improving the battery's fast-charging performance and lifespan while also achieving high energy density. For example, the compaction density of the positive electrode sheet can be 2 g / cm³. 3 2.1g / cm 3 2.2g / cm 3 2.3g / cm 3 2.4g / cm 3 2.5g / cm 3 2.60g / cm 3 2.7 / cm 3 2.8g / cm 3 2.9g / cm 3 3g / cm 3 Or a value between any two of these values. Optionally, the compaction density of the positive electrode sheet is 2.3 g / cm³. 3 Up to 2.65 g / cm 3 Optionally, it is 2.3 g / cm³. 3 Up to 2.5g / cm 3 .

[0184] In some embodiments, the thickness of the positive electrode current collector is between 10 μm and 18 μm. A thickness within this range is beneficial for achieving high energy density in the battery and also helps reduce the risk of cracking in the positive electrode current collector, thereby extending the battery's lifespan. Exemplarily, the thickness of the positive electrode current collector is 10 μm, 11 μm, 12 μm, 13 μm, 14 μm, 14.5 μm, 15 μm, 15.5 μm, 16 μm, 16.5 μm, 17 μm, 17.5 μm, 18 μm, or a value within the range of any two of these values. Optionally, the thickness of the positive electrode current collector is between 13 μm and 15 μm.

[0185] In some embodiments, the positive current collector may be a metal foil or a composite current collector. For example, aluminum foil may be used as the metal foil. The composite current collector may include a polymer substrate and a metal layer formed on at least one surface of the polymer substrate. The composite current collector may be formed by forming a metal material (aluminum, aluminum alloy, nickel, nickel alloy, titanium, titanium alloy, silver and silver alloy, etc.) on a polymer substrate (such as a substrate of polypropylene (PP), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), polystyrene (PS), polyethylene (PE), etc.).

As an example, the binder may include at least one of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), PVDF-tetrafluoroethylene-propylene terpolymer, PVDF-hexafluoropropylene-tetrafluoroethylene terpolymer, tetrafluoroethylene-hexafluoropropylene copolymer, and fluorinated acrylate resin.

[0187] In some embodiments, the positive electrode film may optionally include a conductive agent. As an example, the conductive agent may include at least one selected from superconducting carbon, acetylene black, carbon black, Ketjen black, carbon dots, carbon nanotubes, graphene, or carbon nanofibers.

[0188] In some embodiments, the positive electrode film layer further includes a positive electrode dispersant, which includes at least one of polyethylene glycol octylphenyl ether, polyvinylpyrrolidone, and sodium carboxymethyl cellulose. The above-mentioned positive electrode dispersant has good flexibility and elasticity, and can disperse the stress borne by the positive electrode active material during compaction. By selecting the above-mentioned positive electrode dispersant, it is beneficial to achieve a high compaction density of the positive electrode film layer, thereby improving the energy density of the battery.

[0189] In some embodiments, the mass percentage of the positive electrode dispersant relative to the positive electrode film layer is 0.3% to 5%. Optionally, it is 0.3% to 1.2%, and more preferably 0.5% to 0.8%. By controlling the mass percentage of the positive electrode dispersant in the positive electrode film layer within the above range, it is beneficial for the battery to achieve a high energy density. Exemplarily, the mass percentage of the positive electrode dispersant is a value within the range of any two values ​​formed by 0.3%, 0.5%, 0.8%, 1%, 1.2%, 2%, 3%, 4%, and 5%.

[0190] In some embodiments, the positive electrode sheet can be prepared by dispersing the above-mentioned components for preparing the positive electrode sheet, such as positive active material, conductive agent, binder and any other components, in a solvent (e.g., N-methylpyrrolidone) to form a positive electrode slurry; coating the positive electrode slurry onto the positive electrode current collector, and then obtaining the positive electrode sheet after drying, cold pressing and other processes.

[0191] electrolytes

[0192] The electrolyte acts as a conductor of ions between the positive and negative electrodes. This application does not impose specific restrictions on the type of electrolyte; it can be selected according to requirements. For example, the electrolyte can be liquid, gel, or entirely solid.

[0193] In some embodiments, the electrolyte is an electrolyte solution. The electrolyte solution includes an electrolyte salt and a solvent.

[0196] In some embodiments, the electrolyte further includes additives, including at least one selected from barium sulfate, polytrifluoroethyl methacrylate, bicyclic sulfate, tricyclic sulfate, tris(trimethylsilane) phosphate, and vinylene carbonate. During the first charge and discharge of the battery, the above-mentioned additives preferentially undergo electrochemical reduction reactions on the surface of the negative electrode plate, forming a dense and stable SEI film, which helps to suppress the growth of lithium dendrites and improve the safety performance of the battery.

[0197] In some embodiments, the additive comprises 1% to 10% of the electrolyte by mass. Controlling the additive's mass percentage within this range facilitates the formation of an SEI film of appropriate thickness on the electrode surface. This helps suppress lithium dendrite growth and improve battery safety. Furthermore, it helps to mitigate the lithium-ion transport resistance on the negative electrode, thereby ensuring the battery's fast-charging performance. Exemplarily, the additive's mass percentage is 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9%, 10%, or a value within a range of any two of these values.

[0198] In some embodiments, the conductivity of the electrolyte is from 10 mS / cm to 18.5 mS / cm. By selecting an electrolyte with a conductivity within this range, the internal impedance of the battery can be reduced, thereby reducing energy loss due to resistance during charging and discharging. Exemplarily, the conductivity of the electrolyte is a value between 10 mS / cm, 11 mS / cm, 12 mS / cm, 13 mS / cm, 14 mS / cm, 15 mS / cm, 16 mS / cm, 17 mS / cm, 18 mS / cm, 18.5 mS / cm, or any two of these values. Optionally, the conductivity of the electrolyte is from 14 mS / cm to 16.8 mS / cm.

[0199] In some embodiments, the electrolyte may optionally include additives. For example, it may include additives that can improve certain battery performance, such as additives that improve battery overcharge performance, additives that improve battery high-temperature or low-temperature performance, etc.

[0200] Separating membrane

[0201] In some embodiments, the secondary battery also includes a separator. This application does not impose any particular limitation on the type of separator; any known porous separator with good chemical and mechanical stability can be selected.

[0202] In some embodiments, the material of the separator can be selected from at least one of glass fiber, nonwoven fabric, polyethylene, polypropylene, and polyvinylidene fluoride. The separator can be a single-layer film or a multi-layer composite film, without particular limitation. When the separator is a multi-layer composite film, the materials of each layer can be the same or different, without particular limitation.

[0203] In some embodiments, the separator includes a base film with a thickness of 3 μm to 18 μm. A base film thickness within this range indicates a suitable thickness, which is beneficial for achieving high energy density in the secondary battery, reducing the volume shrinkage rate of the base film at high temperatures, maintaining structural stability and integrity at high temperatures, reducing the risk of short circuits between the positive and negative electrodes, and improving battery safety. Exemplarily, the base film thickness is 3 μm, 4 μm, 5 μm, 6 μm, 7 μm, 8 μm, 9 μm, 10 μm, 11 μm, 12 μm, 13 μm, 14 μm, 15 μm, 16 μm, 17 μm, 18 μm, or a value within a range of any two of these values. Optionally, the base film thickness is 4 μm to 15 μm.

[0204] In some embodiments, the base film has nanopores with an average pore size of 10 nm to 300 nm. By employing a base film with an average pore size within this range, it is beneficial to improve the lithium-ion migration rate while simultaneously suppressing lithium dendrite growth, thereby further enhancing battery safety. Exemplarily, the average pore size of the nanopores is a value within the range of 10 nm, 20 nm, 30 nm, 40 nm, 50 nm, 60 nm, 70 nm, 80 nm, 90 nm, 100 nm, 200 nm, 300 nm, or any two of these values.

[0205] In this application, the average pore size can be tested using methods known in the art. The separator to be tested can be a pre-prepared separator or a separator obtained by disassembling a battery. For example, if the separator (base membrane) is obtained by disassembling a battery, the average pore size of the base membrane can be tested using a pore size meter (model: PMI Porometer), referring to GB / T21650.2-2008.

[0206] In some embodiments, the porosity of the base film is 20% to 70%. Using a base film with a porosity within this range helps to improve the migration rate of lithium ions while also suppressing the growth of lithium dendrites, thereby further improving the safety performance of the battery. Exemplarily, the porosity of the base film is a value between 20%, 30%, 40%, 50%, 60%, 70%, or any two of these values. Optionally, the porosity of the base film is 35% to 42%.

[0207] In some embodiments, the separator further includes a coating disposed on at least one side of the base film. The coating comprises heat-resistant particles interwoven to form a porous structure. Compared to a coating without a porous structure, in this embodiment, the interwoven heat-resistant particles form a porous structure, which helps reduce the coating's obstruction to ion transport, thereby improving ion transport efficiency. Furthermore, the heat-resistant particles have a small volume change with temperature. Disposing of the coating containing heat-resistant particles on the surface of the base film helps suppress the thermal shrinkage rate of the base film, thereby further reducing the risk of short circuits between the positive and negative electrodes and improving the battery's safety performance.

[0208] In some embodiments, the coating thickness disposed on one side of the base film is from 0.01 μm to 2 μm. By selecting a coating with a thickness within this range, it is beneficial for the battery to achieve a high energy density, and also for the coating to better suppress the thermal shrinkage rate of the base film, thereby further improving the battery's safety performance. For example, the coating thickness is 0.01 μm, 0.02 μm, 0.03 μm, 0.04 μm, 0.05 μm, 0.06 μm, 0.07 μm, 0.08 μm, 0.09 μm, 0.1 μm, 0.2 μm, 0.3 μm, 0.4 μm, 0.5 μm, 0.6 μm, 0.7 μm, 0.8 μm, 0.9 μm, 1 μm, 2 μm, or a value within a range consisting of any two of these values.

[0209] In some embodiments, the average particle size of the heat-resistant particles is between 5 nm and 100 nm. Heat-resistant particles with an average particle size of 5 nm to 100 nm can form a coating with a stable supporting network structure, supporting the base film while also suppressing thermal shrinkage of the base film, thereby improving the battery's safety performance. Exemplarily, the average particle size of the heat-resistant particles is a value between 5 nm, 10 nm, 15 nm, 20 nm, 25 nm, 30 nm, 35 nm, 40 nm, 45 nm, 50 nm, 55 nm, 60 nm, 65 nm, 70 nm, 75 nm, 80 nm, 85 nm, 90 nm, 95 nm, 100 nm, or any two of these values.

[0210] In some embodiments, the areal density of the heat-resistant particles is 0.5 mg / 1540.25 cm³. 2 Up to 2.5mg / 1540.25cm 2 By controlling the particle areal density within the aforementioned range, it is beneficial for the battery to achieve the desired energy density while also allowing the heat-resistant particles to effectively suppress thermal shrinkage of the base film, thereby improving battery safety. For example, the areal density of the heat-resistant particles is 0.5 mg / 1540.25 cm³. 2 0.6 mg / 1540.25cm 2 0.7 mg / 1540.25cm2 0.8 mg / 1540.25cm 2 0.9 mg / 1540.25cm 2 1 mg / 1540.25cm 2 1.1 mg / 1540.25cm 2 1.2 mg / 1540.25 cm 2 1.25 mg / 1540.25 cm 2 1.3 mg / 1540.25 cm 2 1.4 mg / 1540.25 cm 2 1.5 mg / 1540.25 cm 2 1.6 mg / 1540.25cm 2 1.7 mg / 1540.25cm 2 1.8 mg / 1540.25cm 2 1.85 mg / 1540.25cm 2 Or values ​​within a range formed by any two of these values. Optionally, the areal density of the heat-resistant particles is 1.25 mg / 1540.25 cm³. 2 Up to 1.85 mg / 1540.25 cm 2 .

[0211] In this application, the areal density of the heat-resistant particles can be tested using methods known in the art. The separator to be tested can be a pre-prepared separator or a separator obtained by disassembling the battery. Specifically, the separator is obtained by disassembling the battery and cut into pieces with an area of ​​1540.25 mm². 2 The disc is weighed and its mass is m6. Then, the coating on one side of the disc is removed, and the mass of the disc is weighed and its mass is m7. 6- m7 is the coating weight of the positive electrode film.

[0212] In some embodiments, along the thickness direction of the base film, the heat-resistant particles include first heat-resistant particles distributed on the surface of the base film. In this embodiment, the first heat-resistant particles distributed on the surface of the base film can directly suppress the thermal shrinkage of the base film, thereby further improving the safety performance of the battery while also maintaining the battery's energy density.

[0213] In some embodiments, the heat-resistant particles include first heat-resistant particles and second heat-resistant particles; wherein the first heat-resistant particles are distributed on the surface of the base film, and the second heat-resistant particles are stacked on the side of the first heat-resistant particles away from the base film. In this embodiment, the first and second heat-resistant particles are stacked in the thickness direction of the base film, which is beneficial to forming a thicker coating. The thicker coating can act as a more effective physical barrier, reducing the chemical erosion of the base film by the electrolyte, and also buffering the friction of the electrode sheets (positive electrode sheet and negative electrode sheet) on the base film, thereby further improving the safety performance of the battery.

[0214] In some embodiments, the heat-resistant particles include inorganic particles and binder particles. In this embodiment, the binder particles act as a bridge, tightly connecting the inorganic particles together. This allows the inorganic particles to form a stable, integrated structure, thereby improving the mechanical strength and stability of the coating and enabling it to better suppress the thermal shrinkage of the base film.

[0215] In some embodiments, the binder particles include one or more of polyvinylidene fluoride, polytetrafluoroethylene, polyvinyl alcohol, polyurethane, or polystyrene ester.

[0216] In some embodiments, the heat-resistant particles include inorganic particles and an adhesive layer disposed on at least a portion of the surface of the inorganic particles. In this embodiment, the adhesive layer is disposed on the surface of the inorganic particles, which helps to improve the adhesion between the inorganic particles and the base film, reduces the risk of the inorganic particles falling off, and helps to improve the safety performance and service life of the battery.

[0217] In some embodiments, the adhesive layer includes one or more of polyvinylidene fluoride, polytetrafluoroethylene, polyvinyl alcohol, polyurethane, or polystyrene ester.

[0218] In some embodiments, the inorganic particles include at least one of aluminum oxide, titanium dioxide, silicon dioxide, zirconium dioxide, tin dioxide, boehmite, magnesium oxide, zinc oxide, barium sulfate, magnesium nitride, or barium titanate. The volume of these substances changes little with temperature, and using them as inorganic particles helps to further suppress the thermal shrinkage of the base film, thereby further improving the safety performance of the battery.

[0219] In some embodiments, the inorganic particle mass percentage in the coating is between 5% and 30%. Controlling the inorganic particle mass percentage within this range facilitates the formation of a heat-resistant skeletal structure within the coating, effectively suppressing thermal shrinkage of the coating, improving battery safety performance, and reducing the risk of inorganic particle detachment. Exemplarily, the inorganic particle mass percentage is 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, or a value within a range of any two of these values.

[0220] In this application, the mass percentage of inorganic particles can be tested using methods known in the art. The separator to be tested can be a pre-prepared separator or a separator obtained by disassembling a battery. For example, the separator is obtained by disassembling a battery, the coating is peeled off from the base film, the coating is collected, and its mass m7 is weighed. The binder particles or binder layer are dissolved using a suitable solvent, and then the inorganic particles are filtered out. The mass of the inorganic particles is weighed as m8, and m7 / m8 is the mass percentage of inorganic particles.

[0221] In some implementations, the positive electrode, negative electrode, and separator can be fabricated into an electrode assembly using a winding or stacking process.

[0222] In some embodiments, the battery cell may include an outer packaging. This outer packaging can be used to encapsulate the electrode assembly and electrolyte described above.

[0223] In some embodiments, the outer packaging of the battery cell can be a rigid shell, such as a hard plastic shell, an aluminum shell, or a steel shell. The outer packaging of the battery cell can also be a flexible package, such as a pouch. The material of the flexible package can be plastic; examples of plastics include polypropylene, polybutylene terephthalate, and polybutylene succinate.

[0224] This application does not impose any particular limitation on the shape of the battery cell; it can be cylindrical, square, or any other arbitrary shape. For example, Figure 1 The example shown is a square-structured battery cell 5.

[0225] In some implementations, refer to Figure 2 The outer packaging may include a housing 51 and a cover 53. The housing 51 may include a base plate and side plates connected to the base plate, the base plate and side plates forming a receiving cavity. The housing 51 has an opening communicating with the receiving cavity, and the cover 53 can be placed over the opening to close the receiving cavity. The positive electrode, negative electrode, and separator may be formed into an electrode assembly 52 by a winding process or a stacking process. The electrode assembly 52 is encapsulated within the receiving cavity. Electrolyte is immersed in the electrode assembly 52. ​​The number of electrode assemblies 52 contained in a single battery cell 5 may be one or more, which can be selected by those skilled in the art according to specific practical needs.

[0226] In some implementations, individual battery cells can be assembled into a battery module. The number of individual battery cells contained in a battery module can be one or more, and the specific number can be selected by those skilled in the art based on the application and capacity of the battery module.

After standing for 5 minutes, the secondary battery was discharged at a constant current of 0.33C to the discharge cutoff voltage of 2.5V, and its actual capacity was recorded as C0.

The first film layer includes a first negative electrode active material (I...

[0348] Testing of negative electrode morphology

[0349] A cross-section of the second film layer in the negative electrode sheet prepared in Example 2 was captured using an argon ion cross-section polisher (e.g., the JEOL IB-09010 CP type argon ion cross-section polisher). A SEM image of the cross-section of the second film layer was then acquired using a scanning electron microscope (HR-TEM Talos F200).

[0369] Testing the compaction density of the negative electrode sheet:

[0370] First, wipe off the negative electrode sheet. Cut the negative electrode film layer on one side into a small circular piece with an area of ​​S11, weigh it, and record its weight as M11.

Measure its thickness H21. Then, wipe off the positive electrode film layer of the weighed positive electrode sheet, weigh the positive current collector, and record its weight as M20. Measure its thickness H20. The single-sided coating weight of the positive electrode sheet = (M21 - M20) / S21, the thickness of the positive electrode film layer = H21 - H20, and the compaction density of the positive electrode sheet = single-sided coating weight of the positive electrode film layer / thickness of the positive electrode film layer. The test results are recorded in Table 6-1.
