Description

Technical Field

[0002] In lithium-ion batteries, traditional polyolefin separators rely on electrolytes for ion conduction, which presents safety hazards such as low conductivity (<0.5 mS / cm), poor thermal stability (<150℃), and flammability. While the rigid electrolyte layer of all-solid-state batteries (such as LLZO, LATP) can improve safety, its high Young's modulus (>100 GPa) leads to poor electrode / electrolyte interface contact, poor ion conductivity, and an interface impedance as high as >1000 Ω·cm. 2 .

[0003] While existing composite membrane technologies (such as ceramic-coated membranes) can enhance mechanical strength, they cannot simultaneously achieve high ion conductivity and optimized interface impedance, and in particular, they lack synergistic suppression of silicon anode expansion (>300%) and lithium dendrite growth.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a separator solution that combines high ion conductivity, interface adaptability, environmental stability, and compatibility with existing liquid battery production lines to support the gradual upgrade of high energy density batteries from liquid to semi-solid / all-solid state.

Furthermore, a positive electrode transition layer and a negative electrode transition layer containing electronic conductors are respectively attached to both sides of the ion-conducting layer, forming a special "sandwich structure." Due to the large difference in surface energy between the electronic conductor and the solid electrolyte, which acts as an ion conductor... During solvent evaporation, spontaneous phase separation occurs. The anchoring effect of the binder preferentially coats the solid electrolyte with a polarity matching that of the binder, squeezing the electronic conductors into isolated islands. This results in the electronic conductors being distributed in a dispersed island structure in the transition layers on both the positive and negative sides. By controlling the mass fraction of the electronic conductors in both the positive and negative transition layers to be below the critical value for forming a continuous conductive network, a continuous electronic conduction network cannot be formed between the electronic conductors. This blocks direct cross-layer leakage of electrons through the membrane structure from the positive side to the negative side, preventing short circuits.

[0046] The bifunctional composite lithium-conducting separator proposed in this invention has significant ion transport capability, interface compatibility and thermal stability, and achieves high safety by controlling the content of electronic conductors, providing strong support for high-performance battery systems.

[0047] The strategy of this invention is to replace the "inert physical coating" of traditional alumina separator with "active ion filling + intelligent interface coating", upgrading the separator from a "passive isolation component" to an "active lithium conduction and interface regulation core", which achieves the technical effects of improving ionic conductivity, reducing interface impedance, improving the mechanical strength of the separator, and improving battery cycle life.

[0130] (6) First, a positive electrode slurry is coated on one side of the ion conduction layer and dried in a vacuum drying oven at 160°C for 2 hours. Then, a negative electrode slurry is coated on the other side of the ion conduction layer and dried in a vacuum drying oven at 90°C for 2 hours to form a sandwich structure with a 10μm positive electrode transition layer and a 10μm negative electrode transition layer attached to both sides of the ion conduction layer, thus obtaining a bifunctional composite lithium conductive membrane.

[0132] 1. Ionic conductivity and surface resistivity tests are as follows.

[0133] (1) Ionic conductivity was tested using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) on an electrochemical workstation. Specifically, the bifunctional composite lithium-conducting membrane prepared in this embodiment was first cut into circular pieces with a diameter of 17 mm and sandwiched between two stainless steel (SS) inert electrodes before being installed in a battery for testing. To ensure the accuracy of the test, the test battery was placed in a constant temperature chamber for temperature control. In the EIS test, the frequency range was set from 0.01 Hz to 1 MHz, and the amplitude voltage was set to 10 mV to accurately measure the resistance of the bifunctional composite lithium-conducting membrane. Next, by analyzing the Nyquist impedance spectrum, the ionic conductivity of the electrolyte can be calculated using the following formula: In the determination of ionic conductivity, d in the formula represents the thickness of the bifunctional composite lithium-ion separator, R is the impedance value read from the Nyquist impedance diagram of EIS, and S represents the effective contact area between the bifunctional composite lithium-ion separator and the stainless steel inert electrode. To ensure the accuracy of the measurement, when testing the ionic conductivity at different temperatures, the constant temperature chamber needs to be set to the target temperature and maintained for half an hour to allow the test battery to reach thermal equilibrium. This step ensures the stability of the test environment, thereby allowing for accurate measurement of the ionic conductivity of the solid electrolyte at various temperatures. The ionic conductivity tests of this invention are all conducted at 25±2℃ and humidity less than 50%.

[0134] (2) Calculate the surface resistance. The formula is: Surface resistance = impedance value R × area S of the bifunctional composite lithium conductive membrane.

[0135] 2. Electrochemical window test: Lithium metal sheet is used as reference electrode and counter electrode, and stainless steel sheet (SS) is used as working electrode. A bifunctional composite lithium conductive membrane is used in the middle. The electrolyte is LiPF6 with a molar concentration of 1 mol / L. The solvent of the electrolyte is a mixed solution of ethylene carbonate (EC), dimethyl carbonate (DMC) and ethyl methyl carbonate (EMC) with a volume ratio of 1:1:1.

[0136] During testing, lithium / stainless steel (Li|SS) batteries were assembled inside a glove box, and then linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) tests were performed in a constant temperature chamber at room temperature. The scan rate was set to 1 millivolt per second (mV / s), scanning from the open-circuit voltage to 6V.

[0137] 3. Cyclic performance test: To test the cycle stability of the full battery assembled with the dual-functional composite lithium-conducting membrane, lithium iron phosphate (LFP) was selected as the positive electrode active material to prepare the LFP positive electrode, and commercial silicon-carbon negative electrode was selected as the negative electrode active material. The membrane used in this embodiment is the dual-functional composite lithium-conducting membrane. The electrolyte is LiPF6 with a molar concentration of 1 mol / L. The solvent of the electrolyte is a mixed solution of ethylene carbonate (EC), dimethyl carbonate (DMC), and ethyl methyl carbonate (EMC) with a volume ratio of 1:1:1. The battery is assembled into a "LFP positive electrode | dual-functional composite lithium-conducting membrane | silicon-carbon negative electrode" soft-pack battery using conventional methods. During the assembly process, it is important to ensure that the LFP positive electrode is in contact with the positive electrode side coating of the dual-functional composite lithium-conducting membrane, and the silicon-carbon negative electrode is in contact with the negative electrode side coating of the dual-functional composite lithium-conducting membrane.

[0138] Then, a blue-light tester was used to perform 200 cycles of cyclic testing at 3C current density, and the capacity retention rate was calculated and recorded.

[0139] 4. Test the electrode expansion rate. Measure the thickness of the silicon-carbon negative electrode before assembling the full cell. After the full cell has been cycled 200 times, disassemble the silicon-carbon negative electrode after testing and measure the thickness before and after the test. Calculate the expansion rate = (thickness after cycling - initial thickness) / initial thickness.

[0166] To better illustrate the effects of the embodiments of the present invention, a comparative example is provided to be made with the embodiments described above.

[0167] Comparative Example 1

[0168] This comparative example directly uses commercially available PE separators for performance testing, and uses PP separators to assemble lithium-ion batteries for testing. The specific process is the same as in Example 1.

[0169] Comparative Example 2

[0170] This comparative example provides a method for preparing a composite membrane. The difference from Example 1 is that the solid electrolyte in steps (2), (4), and (5) is inert filler alumina (Al2O3). The other preparation processes are the same as in Example 1.

[0171] The performance of the separator prepared in this comparative example was tested, and the separator prepared in this comparative example was assembled into a lithium-ion battery for testing. The specific process was the same as in Example 1.

[0172] Comparative Example 3

[0173] This comparative example provides a method for preparing a separator. The difference from Example 1 is that steps (4) and (5) are not performed, that is, the positive electrode slurry and the negative electrode slurry are not coated on both sides of the base membrane, and the ion conduction layer of step (3) is used directly as the separator.

[0174] The performance of the separator prepared in this comparative example was tested, and the separator prepared in this comparative example was assembled into a lithium-ion battery for testing. The specific process was the same as in Example 1.

[0175] Comparative Example 4

[0176] This comparative example provides a method for preparing a diaphragm, which differs from Example 1 in that the mass percentage of the electronic conductor in steps (4) and (5) both exceeds 30%. Step (4) involves indium tin oxide, polyvinylidene fluoride, and a fluoride-based solid electrolyte Li. 1.25 La 0.58 The mass ratio of Nb₂O₆F is 35:15:50; Step (5) Carbon nanotubes (CNTs), PVDF, and fluoride-based solid electrolyte Li 1.25 La 0.58 The mass ratio of Nb2O6F was 35:15:50, and the other preparation processes were the same as in Example 1.

[0177] The separator prepared in this comparative example was assembled into a full cell for cycle performance testing. The specific assembly and testing process was the same as in Example 1. The full cell containing the separator of Comparative Example 4 could not cycle for 200 cycles. This is because when the mass ratio of electronic conductors exceeds the threshold value, the electronic conductors easily form network connection channels, which will lead to a real electronic short circuit in the ionic conductivity test and cause a huge background current in the electrochemical window test, which seriously interferes with the judgment of the decomposition potential. Its behavior is similar to that of a short circuit. Similarly, in the cycle test of the full cell, it will cause the battery to fail rapidly through mechanisms such as continuous self-discharge, lithium dendrite growth, and interfacial side reactions. Essentially, it is an electrochemically driven progressive short circuit.

[0178] Table 1 summarizes the test data for Examples 1-8 and Comparative Examples 1-3.

[0179]

[0180] Table 1

[0181] As can be seen from the test data in Table 1, the ionic conductivity of Examples 1-8 is much higher than that of Comparative Example 1, the sheet resistance of Examples 1-8 is significantly lower than that of Comparative Example 1, the electrochemical window of Examples 1-8 is significantly higher than that of Comparative Example 1, the cycle capacity retention rate of Examples 1-8 after 200 cycles is significantly higher than that of Comparative Example 1, and the silicon-carbon electrode expansion rate of Examples 1-8 is significantly lower than that of Comparative Example 1. This is because the bifunctional composite lithium-conducting separator of Examples 1-8 of the present invention has significant ion transport capability, interface compatibility and thermal stability, and by controlling the content of electronic conductors, the separator has high safety, which can effectively improve the electrochemical performance of the battery. In contrast, the traditional PE separator used in Comparative Example 1, although its ionic conductivity and electrochemical window are mediocre, cannot cope with the expansion problem of silicon-carbon anode, resulting in poor cycle performance.

[0182] The ionic conductivity of Examples 1-8 is much higher than that of Comparative Example 2, the sheet resistance of Examples 1-8 is significantly lower than that of Comparative Example 2, the electrochemical window of Examples 1-8 is significantly higher than that of Comparative Example 2, the cycle capacity retention rate of Examples 1-8 after 200 cycles is significantly higher than that of Comparative Example 2, and the silicon-carbon electrode expansion rate of Examples 1-8 is significantly lower than that of Comparative Example 2. This is because the bifunctional composite lithium-conducting separator of Examples 1-8 of the present invention has significant ion transport capability, interface compatibility and thermal stability, and by controlling the content of electronic conductors, the separator has high safety, which can effectively improve the electrochemical performance of the battery. In contrast, the separator of Comparative Example 2 uses inert alumina filler and does not use a high-ionic-conductor solid electrolyte. The intermediate layer cannot provide additional ion channels, resulting in the inability to improve the ionic conductivity and other properties. Lithium ions cannot migrate quickly and deposit uniformly, affecting the cycle performance.

[0183] The ionic conductivity of Examples 1-5 is much higher than that of Comparative Example 3, the sheet resistance of Examples 1-5 is significantly lower than that of Comparative Example 3, the electrochemical window of Examples 1-5 is significantly higher than that of Comparative Example 3, the cycle capacity retention rate of Examples 1-5 after 200 cycles is significantly higher than that of Comparative Example 3, and the silicon-carbon electrode expansion rate of Examples 1-5 is significantly lower than that of Comparative Example 3. This is because the bifunctional composite lithium-conducting separator of Examples 1-5 of the present invention has significant ion transport capability, interface compatibility and thermal stability, and the separator has high safety by controlling the content of electronic conductors, which can effectively improve the electrochemical performance of the battery. In contrast, Comparative Example 3 does not have a "sandwich structure". Although the ionic conductivity and sheet resistance are improved, it does not have a transition layer between the positive and negative electrodes, which reduces its compatibility with the positive and negative electrodes and prevents it from performing as expected.

[0184] Although the ionic conductivity of Examples 6-8 is lower than that of Comparative Example 3, and the sheet resistance is higher, the electrochemical window of Examples 6-8 is significantly larger than that of Comparative Example 3. The silicon-carbon electrode expansion rate of Examples 6-8 is also significantly lower than that of Comparative Example 3. Therefore, the cycle capacity retention rate of Examples 6-8 after 200 cycles is better than that of Comparative Example 3. This is because Comparative Example 3 directly uses an ion-conducting layer. Although the ionic conductivity and sheet resistance are improved, there is no transition layer between the positive and negative electrodes, resulting in reduced compatibility with the positive and negative electrodes and a weaker ability to suppress electrode expansion, thus leading to poorer cycle performance compared to Examples 6-8.

[0185] The specific embodiments described above further illustrate the purpose, technical solution, and beneficial effects of the present invention. It should be understood that the above description is only a specific embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
