Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of battery electrolyte materials, and in particular to a fluorine-containing sulfonic acid compound, a preparation method thereof, and an electrolyte. Background Art
[0002] As the global energy structure transitions toward cleaner, more electrified energy, lithium-ion batteries, as a high-energy-density energy storage technology, have become a core enabler for electric vehicles, smart grids, and portable electronic devices. Traditional lithium-ion battery electrolyte systems generally use lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF6) as the primary salt. While LiPF6 exhibits acceptable ionic conductivity and electrochemical stability at room temperature, the PF bond in its molecular structure suffers from poor thermodynamic stability, causing LiPF6 to readily decompose and release toxic hydrogen fluoride gas. This affects the chemical and electrochemical properties of the electrolyte, destroying the solid electrolyte interface (SEI) membrane, leading to battery capacity decay, increased internal resistance, and the risk of thermal runaway. Furthermore, LiPF6 readily hydrolyzes to release HF gas, further damaging the integrity of the SEI membrane, making it difficult to meet the high-temperature cycling and high-voltage tolerance requirements of high-energy-density batteries.
[0003] In response to the above-mentioned limitations of LiPF6, researchers have developed a new lithium salt, lithium difluorooxalatoborate (LiDFOB). The molecular structure of LiDFOB combines the rigid skeleton of the oxalate borate group with the strong electron-withdrawing effect of the fluorine atom. It has high ionic conductivity at room temperature, and its decomposition products (such as LiF and lithium borate) can form a dense and ion-conductive solid electrolyte interface film on the electrode surface in a voltage system below 4.5V, effectively inhibiting the continuous decomposition of the electrolyte, thereby improving the cycle stability of the battery.
[0004] However, as battery applications evolve towards high voltage (>4.5V) and high temperature (>60℃), the molecular structure defects of LiDFOB are gradually exposed. 2- ) is thermodynamically unstable and easily decomposes under high temperature and high pressure conditions, releasing gases such as CO and CO2, which triggers local electrolyte bloating and destroys the integrity of the solid electrolyte interface membrane, leading to electrode / electrolyte interface contact failure and affecting battery performance and safety. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In response to the shortcomings of the existing technology, the first purpose of the present invention is to provide a fluorine-containing sulfonic acid compound, which solves the problem of poor stability of traditional lithium salt LiDFOB under high voltage and high temperature conditions due to the structural defects of the oxalic acid group; the second purpose is to provide a method for preparing the fluorine-containing sulfonic acid compound; and the third purpose is to provide an electrolyte for the fluorine-containing sulfonic acid compound.
[0006] In order to achieve the above object, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows:

[0011] A is difluorophosphate, trifluoromethylsulfinate, trifluoromethylsulfonate, nitrate, trifluoromethyl or cyano;
[0012] F is a fluorine atom;
[0013] Z is a boron atom or a phosphorus atom. When Z is a boron atom, b=0 or 1, a and f are independently 0, 1 or 2, and a+f+2b=2. When Z is a phosphorus atom, b=0, 1 or 2, a and f are independently 0, 1, 2, 3 or 4, and a+f+2b=4.
[0014] O is an oxygen atom;
[0015] Y 1 is a carbon atom or a sulfur atom, when Y 1 When Y is a carbon atom, c=1; 1 When it is a sulfur atom, c=1 or 2;
[0016] Y 2 is a carbon atom or a sulfur atom, when Y 2 When it is a carbon atom, d = 1, when it is a sulfur atom, d = 1 or 2;
[0017] R 1 、R 2 is independently a carbon chain with 0-3 carbon atoms, and when the carbon number of the carbon chain is 0, it means that the two side groups are directly connected; wherein, when Z is a boron atom, Y 1 When it is a carbon atom and a=b=0, R 1 A carbon chain with 1 to 3 carbon atoms;

[0019] According to the above technical means, the fluorinated sulfonic acid compound of the present invention is a new type of salt. The fluorinated sulfonic acid group introduced into its structure is different from the oxalic acid group (C2O4 2- ) has significant structural and performance advantages; first, the highly stable covalent bonds (S=O and SF bonds) formed by the sulfur atom in the sulfonic acid group and the strongly electronegative oxygen atom and fluorine atom give it stronger thermodynamic stability and antioxidant ability, and the gas production rate is low under high temperature (>60℃) and high pressure (>4.5V), thereby reducing the expansion of the electrolyte and improving the cycle stability. The ionic conductivity and migration number are high, which improves the battery cycle stability and rate performance; secondly, LiF and sulfur-boron complexes generated by the fluorosulfonic acid group during the decomposition process can form a high ionic conductivity and dense interfacial film, optimize the transport kinetics of metal ions (such as lithium ions in lithium batteries), and further improve the long-term cycle stability of the battery (such as the capacity retention rate after 500 cycles is as high as 98%) and safety. The fluorosulfonic acid group solves the inherent defects of the oxalic acid group in traditional lithium salts in high-pressure and high-temperature systems through the dual effects of structural stability and functional decomposition products.

[0107] 3. Experimental results
[0108] When used as an electrolyte additive, the experimental results are shown in Table 1. Taking electrolytes D-1%, D-2%, and D-3% as comparative examples, under the same solute and organic solvent ratio conditions, the electrolyte containing the fluorinated sulfonic acid compound of the present invention has a better capacity retention rate under high temperature and high pressure conditions. This is because the electrolyte containing the fluorinated sulfonic acid lithium salt produces less gas than the electrolyte containing the difluorooxalatoborate lithium salt. Gas production can lead to poor battery contact, resulting in a rapid increase in the battery's direct current resistance (DCIR) and a series of side reactions, thereby affecting the battery's cycle life.
[0109] As can be seen from Table 1, when the addition amount of compound 1 increases from 1% to 3%, the 500-cycle capacity retention rate of the battery increases significantly, while the addition amount of compounds 13 and 33 does not increase significantly after 2%. Considering the cost, the optimal addition amount of compound 1 is 3%, and the optimal addition amount of compounds 13 and 33 is 2%.

[0118] 3. Experimental results
[0119] 1) The ionic conductivity and DC internal resistance test results of compound 1 and lithium difluorooxalatoborate as the main salts of the electrolyte are shown in Table 2. The room temperature ionic conductivity of electrolyte 1-M containing compound 1 is significantly higher than that of electrolyte DM containing lithium difluorooxalatoborate, and the DC internal resistance is also smaller. This is due to the strong electron-withdrawing ability of the fluorosulfonic acid group in the molecular structure of compound 1, which enables the lithium salt to fully dissociate, thereby improving the ionic conductivity.

[0122] 2) The cycling performance results of compound 1 and lithium difluorooxalatoborate as the main salt of the electrolyte at different charge and discharge rates are shown in Table 3. The rate performance of electrolyte 1-M containing compound 1 is significantly better than that of electrolyte DM containing lithium difluorooxalatoborate. This is due to the larger anion volume of compound 1, which makes the electrolyte have a higher ion migration number and reduces the polarization voltage, thereby making the electrolyte have better rate performance.
