Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of electrochemical energy storage, and in particular relates to an internal parallel supercapacitor and a manufacturing method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Supercapacitors, also known as electrochemical capacitors, store energy by forming a stable double layer of electrolyte ions on the electrode surface or by adsorption and desorption in the two- or three-dimensional space of the electrode. They are a new type of energy storage device between conventional capacitors and secondary batteries. Supercapacitors offer advantages such as high specific capacitance, high power density, environmental friendliness, rapid charge and discharge, and long cycle life. They combine the high power output of traditional capacitors with the charge storage capacity of secondary batteries. Currently, supercapacitors are finding increasingly widespread application in new energy, power storage, rail transportation, aerospace, and other fields.

[0003] Common packaging forms for supercapacitors include cylindrical aluminum shells and soft-pack aluminum-plastic films, while the traditional wound supercapacitor assembly is mainly achieved by winding the pole pieces and diaphragms together. However, as the height of the core and the roll diameter ratio increase, electrolyte infiltration becomes more difficult and the infiltration uniformity deteriorates, leading to increased internal resistance of the supercapacitor, uneven heat generation, deterioration of various performances, and lower capacitance. In traditional wound double-layer supercapacitors, the electrodes inside the core are connected in series. The electrostatic capacitance of the supercapacitor is one-fourth of the electrostatic capacitance of the total active material, and the overall capacitance is not easy to increase. Another type of supercapacitor in the form of laminated sheets is achieved by alternating stacking of pole pieces and diaphragms. It has high capacitance, and the external packaging is mainly achieved by thermal sealing of aluminum-plastic film, which carries a high risk of electrolyte leakage. The Chinese patent application with publication number CN209388893 alternately stacks cylindrical electrodes and diaphragms and places them in a cylindrical aluminum shell to eventually form an internal series capacitor. Its main purpose is to improve the low voltage of aqueous supercapacitors and solve the problem that individual electrode sheets decompose the electrolyte due to excessively high carrying voltage caused by inconsistent electrodes. After stacking, the voltage can be increased to above 5V, but the problem of low capacitance cannot be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0009] Furthermore, the negative electrode active material is one or both of activated carbon and pre-lithiation negative electrode material; The pre-lithiation negative electrode material is graphite, silicon carbon or silicon oxide.

[0010] Furthermore, the binder is one or a combination of two of polyacrylic acid, styrene-butadiene rubber and polytetrafluoroethylene; The thickener is sodium carboxymethyl cellulose; The conductive agent is one or more of carbon black, acetylene black, carbon nanotubes, and graphene; The current collector is one or both of aluminum foil and copper foil.

[0011] Furthermore, the edge of the negative electrode active material layer is 0-2 mm larger than the edge of the positive electrode active material layer, and the edge of the separator is 1-4 mm larger than the edge of the negative electrode active material layer.

[0012] Furthermore, the diameter of the central hole in the middle of the negative electrode sheet and the positive electrode sheet is 0.1 mm to 8 mm.

[0013] Furthermore, the diaphragm is one of a cellulose diaphragm, a non-woven fabric diaphragm, a polypropylene diaphragm, a polytetrafluoroethylene-based diaphragm and a ceramic diaphragm.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial technical effects: In the present invention, the positive electrode sheet and the negative electrode sheet are connected in parallel to form the positive terminal and the negative terminal respectively, which can effectively reduce the contact resistance. The stacked electrode sheets (including the positive electrode sheet and the negative electrode sheet) containing the central hole provide more channels for the electrolyte infiltration, and the infiltration efficiency and uniformity are better. The consistency of the battery cell is greatly improved. At the same time, the size of the supercapacitor with this structure can be flexibly adjusted and is easier to implement in terms of process.

[0016] When preparing supercapacitors, the present invention radially increases the size of the electrode sheets based on the stacking method, which does not affect the penetration efficiency of the electrolyte. Therefore, compared with wound capacitors, the electrostatic capacitance of the internal parallel supercapacitor is easier to increase; the center hole in the internal parallel structure can be used for positioning during the stacking process to improve the concentricity of the electrode stack. At the same time, the set center hole and parallel structure can also serve as longitudinal and radial penetration channels for the electrolyte during the injection process, thereby improving the electrolyte penetration efficiency and uniformity, thereby improving the consistency of internal resistance and capacity.

[0017] In addition, by combining the advantages of cylindrical cells and laminated cells, the design flexibility of supercapacitors in height and radial direction can be achieved, and the mass production of ultra-large capacity supercapacitor cells can be achieved more easily.

[0052] For the electrode sheets with an internal parallel structure, the stacked structure can provide more electrolyte penetration channels. The central hole in the present invention can further help the penetration efficiency of the electrolyte. For the supercapacitors of Examples 1 to 3, the central holes of the electrode sheets (i.e., the positive electrode sheet 3 and the negative electrode sheet 1) are 0.1 mm, 2 mm, and 8 mm, respectively. The larger the central hole, the better the electrolyte penetration effect and the higher the efficiency. However, the increase in the central hole will inevitably lead to a loss of capacity. Therefore, a central hole with a diameter of 2 mm is preferred. The stacked internal parallel structure has a great advantage in improving the capacitance of the capacitor. Compared with Example 5, Example 4 can increase the capacity by increasing the size of the electrode sheet. Compared with Comparative Example 1, Comparative Example 1 is a typical winding structure. It is limited by the penetration effect of the electrolyte and is not as good as Example 4, but it has a slightly higher penetration efficiency than Example 5. Example 6 uses a diaphragm containing a ceramic coating. Compared with Example 4, the internal resistance of the capacitor is larger. Under continuous charge and discharge conditions, the temperature rise will be more obvious. Compared with Example 4, Example 7 adds carbon nanotubes to the conductive agent component, which is more advantageous under high-current charging and discharging conditions; compared with Comparative Example 1, the contact internal resistance and temperature rise are smaller under the same charging and discharging conditions. Example 8 and Comparative Example 2 are hybrid capacitors, and Example 8 is a hybrid capacitor with an internal parallel structure. Its electrostatic capacitance is higher than that of Comparative Example 2, and its internal resistance and temperature rise are both lower than Comparative Example 2. Example 9, compared with Example 8, has different components and ratios of the conductive agent and binder. Thanks to the special structure of carbon nanotubes and graphene, it combines the advantages of point, line, and surface conductivity, improving the overcurrent capacity and reducing the temperature rise during the capacitor charging and discharging process.
