During the charge and discharge process of the lithium-ion battery, active ions (such as lithium ions) are embedded and released back and forth between the positive electrode sheet and the negative electrode sheet. The separator is disposed between the positive electrode sheet and the negative electrode sheet to prevent a short circuit between the positive and negative electrodes while allowing active ions to pass through.

[0064] The minimum and maximum carbon atom content of a hydrocarbon group is indicated by a prefix. For example, the prefix C1-Cb alkyl indicates any alkyl group containing from "a" to "b" carbon atoms. Thus, for example, "C1-C10 alkylene" refers to an alkylene group containing 1 to 10 carbon atoms, and "C1-C4 alkyl" refers to an alkyl group containing 1 to 4 carbon atoms.
[0065] "Alkyl" refers to a saturated hydrocarbon chain having a specified number of member atoms. For example, C1-4 alkyl refers to a saturated hydrocarbon chain having 1 to 4 member atoms.

[0072] The positive electrode plate in the lithium-ion battery of the present application includes a nickel-containing positive electrode material, and the negative electrode plate includes a silicon-based negative electrode material, which is used to improve the energy density of the battery. At the same time, in order to take into account the stability of the battery during cycling and storage, the present application selects the electrolyte to include a first additive and a second additive. These components form a solid electrolyte interface film with stable properties and appropriate thickness (for example, a few nanometers) on the surface of the nickel-containing positive electrode material and the silicon-based negative electrode material. This interface film isolates the nickel-containing positive electrode material and the silicon-based negative electrode material from the electrolyte, reducing the decomposition and gas production of the electrolyte, thereby improving the battery's cycling performance and high-temperature storage performance.
[0073] The first additive in the electrolyte of the present application is convenient for taking effect in the nickel-containing positive electrode material. Specifically, the first additive preferentially dissolves on the positive electrode surface to form an interface film, reducing the occurrence of positive electrode side reactions. At the same time, the first additive can combine with the Ni element in the nickel-containing positive electrode material to stabilize the material structure, slow down the occurrence of phase change, inhibit the growth of interface impedance, and improve the high-temperature storage performance and cycle performance of the battery.
[0074] The second additive of the present application preferentially dissolves on the surface of the silicon-based negative electrode material and is reduced to generate organic or inorganic lithium salts containing sulfur-containing substances such as Li2SO3 and CH3CH(OSO2Li), thereby reducing the impedance of the SEI film on the surface of the silicon-based negative electrode material, inhibiting the occurrence of side reactions and the production of gases such as CO2, and improving the cycle stability of the battery; at the same time, these lithium salts have a good coordination relationship with the silicon-based negative electrode material, which is beneficial to improving the stability of the silicon-based interface, reducing the interface impedance, and improving the cycle performance of the battery.
[0075] The solid electrolyte interface film generated on the surface of the silicon-based negative electrode material in the present application contains inorganic substances such as phosphorus and sulfur. These inorganic substances themselves have a certain conductivity, which is beneficial to improving the conductivity between adjacent silicon-based negative electrode materials; therefore, the interface impedance of the negative electrode solid electrolyte interface film is low, which is beneficial to suppress the DCR growth during the cycle process, thereby further improving the long-term cycle stability of the battery.
[0076] However, when only one of the additives is added alone, the generated interface film is not stable enough, and when a single additive is added in excessive amounts, it is easy to deteriorate the performance of the battery. The present application selects the above-mentioned types of additives in combination, which can play a synergistic role in forming a stable and low-impedance positive electrode interface film on the surface of the nickel-containing positive electrode material and the silicon-based negative electrode material, which can effectively inhibit the decomposition of the electrolyte, reduce the gas production of the electrolyte decomposition, and improve the high-temperature storage performance of the battery. At the same time, the above-mentioned additives are used in combination to facilitate the continuous film-forming reaction, adjust the film-forming components, promote the formation of a low-impedance and stable interface film on the positive and negative electrode interfaces, inhibit the increase of the DC resistance DCR during the cycle, and improve the long-term cycle stability of the battery.

[0235] The batteries prepared in the above examples and comparative examples of this application were tested as follows:
[0236] (1) High temperature storage test: After the divided batteries are placed in a 25°C environment and left to stand for 1 hour, the capacity is calibrated at a rate of 0.33C, and the discharge capacity C1 is recorded. Charge at 0.33C to 4.2V and cut off at 0.05C. Then place the fully charged batteries in a 60°C oven for 28 days. After 28 days, perform a 0.33C discharge test on the batteries, discharge them to 2.5V, and obtain the discharge capacity C2. Then perform a 0.33C charge and discharge test for two weeks, and take the discharge capacity C3 of the last week. The capacity retention rate is: C2 / C1×%; the capacity recovery rate is: C3 / C1×%.
[0237] (2) 25°C cycle test: The battery was charged at a constant temperature of 25°C with a constant current and constant voltage of 1C to 4.2V, with a cut-off current of 0.05C, and then discharged at 1C to 2.5V. The capacity retention rate after 800 cycles was recorded: Capacity retention rate of the battery after 800 cycles at 25°C (%) = discharge capacity after 800 cycles / discharge capacity at the first cycle × 100%.
[0238] (3) DCR growth rate test: Charge the fresh battery before cycling to 50% SOC, let it rest for 1 hour, record the voltage V1 after rest, discharge it at 2C for 30 seconds, record the termination voltage V2, and calculate the DCR of the battery: DCR1 = (V1-V2) / I 2C ; Charge the cycled battery to 50% SOC, let it rest for 1 hour, record the voltage V3 after rest, discharge it at 2C for 30 seconds, record the termination voltage V4, and calculate the DCR of the battery, DCR2 = (V3-V4) / I 2C , Cycle DCR growth rate = (DCR2-DCR1) / DCR1×100%. The test temperature is 25°C.
[0239] The specific test results are shown in Table 5 below:
[0240] Table 5 Performance test list
[0241]
[0242]
[0243] In combination with the above-mentioned Example 1, Example 2-1 to Example 2-3, and Comparative Example 1, it can be seen that the content of the first additive in the electrolyte affects the battery performance. Specifically, the content of the first additive in the electrolyte shown in Example 2-2 is too high, and the content of the first additive in the electrolyte shown in Example 2-3 is too low, both of which are not conducive to improving the cycle performance and high-temperature storage performance of the battery.
[0244] From the above-mentioned Example 1 and Example 3-1 to Example 3-9, it can be seen that different types of first additives also have an impact on battery performance. Among them, the types of first additives shown in Example 1, Example 3-3, Example 3-4, Example 3-6 and Example 3-9 have a more obvious improvement on battery performance than other types.
[0245] In combination with the above-mentioned Example 1, Example 4-5 and Example 4-6, it can be seen that by adding a fluorinated sulfonyl imide salt to the electrolyte, the fluorinated sulfonyl imide salt can facilitate the formation of a stable solid electrolyte interface film on the surface of the silicon negative electrode material. The solid electrolyte interface film is not easy to decompose even at high temperatures, thereby improving the recycling effect of the battery by reducing the consumption of the electrolyte and the negative electrode material.
[0246] In combination with the above-mentioned Example 1, Example 5-1 to Example 5-4 and Comparative Example 4-1, it can be seen that the silicon content in the negative electrode active material is within the protection scope of this application, and it is used together with the positive electrode material and additives in the electrolyte of this application to improve the cycle performance and storage performance of the battery.
[0247] In combination with the above-mentioned Example 6, Comparative Example 1, Comparative Example 2, Comparative Example 3 and Comparative Example 4-2, it can be seen that the additive protected in this application is used together with the nickel-containing positive electrode material and the silicon-based negative electrode material to improve the electrochemical performance of the battery of this application.
[0248] Therefore, the design method provided in this application generates a solid electrolyte interface film with stable properties and appropriate thickness on the surface of nickel-containing positive electrode materials and silicon-based negative electrode materials. This interface film can effectively inhibit the decomposition of the electrolyte and at the same time improve the high-temperature storage performance and cycle performance of the battery.
