TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of solid-state electrolyte, and particularly relates to a high-voltage polymer electrolyte, a preparation method thereof and application thereof in all-solid-state batteries. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the increasing demand for driving range of global electric vehicle industry and the growing demand for energy density of energy storage system, the development of high-voltage positive electrode materials (such as layered ternary material LiNi 0.8 Mn 0.1 Co 0.1 O2, spinel LiNi 0.5 Mn 1.5 O4, etc.) with a working voltage of 4.5V or more has become the core development direction of lithium battery technology. Such materials can push the battery energy density to more than 300Wh / kg, significantly exceeding the current commercial system. However, the traditional liquid organic electrolyte faces serious challenges in the high-voltage environment: when the voltage exceeds 4.3V, the solvent molecules (such as ethylene carbonate EC) will undergo irreversible oxidative decomposition, producing CO2 and other gases and causing battery swelling; at the same time, the side reaction of electrolyte and high-activity positive electrode interface will accelerate the dissolution of transition metal ions, leading to a sharp increase in interface impedance and capacity decay. More seriously, the uncontrollable growth of lithium dendrites in high-voltage cycling may penetrate the separator, causing internal short circuit and thermal runaway risk. Solid-state polymer electrolyte (SPE) has inherent safety advantages due to the complete elimination of flammable liquid components, and is considered by the academic and industrial circles as an ideal solution for the next generation of high-energy-density batteries. However, the existing SPE system has fundamental defects: the traditional matrix material represented by polyethylene oxide (PEO) has a generally low electrochemical window, which cannot match the high-voltage positive electrode (such as LNMO with a working voltage of 4.7V); while inorganic solid-state electrolyte (such as LLZO) has a wide electrochemical window, but it is difficult to be applied on a large scale due to poor rigid interface contact, brittleness, high manufacturing cost and other problems. Therefore, the development of a new type of SPE with a wide electrochemical window (≥4.5V vs. Li + / Li), high interface compatibility and excellent ion transport performance has become a key path to break through the technical bottleneck of high-voltage solid-state batteries.
[0003] Among the many polymer matrices, polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) and its copolymers show unique potential for high-voltage adaptation. The C-F bond in its molecular chain has a high bond energy of 485kJ / mol, which gives the material excellent thermal stability and electrochemical stability; at the same time, the high dielectric constant (8.4) of PVDF can effectively promote the dissociation of lithium salt and increase the carrier concentration, and the dipole moment formed by the all-trans conformation in the beta crystal phase is more conducive to lithium ion migration. Experiments show that the room temperature ionic conductivity of PVDF-HFP-based electrolyte can reach 10 -4With a tensile strength on the order of S / cm and >10MPa, it can physically suppress lithium dendrite puncture. However, existing solvent systems severely limit the performance upper limit of PVDF-based electrolytes: traditional polar solvents such as N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) and N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) can effectively dissolve PVDF, but their highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) energy levels are high, making them prone to oxidative decomposition at voltages >4.3V, resulting in a narrowing of the practical electrochemical window to below 4.5V. Residual solvent molecules can also react with the lithium metal anode to form organolithium salts, consuming active lithium and forming a high-resistivity interface layer. Summary of the Invention

Their electrochemical stability window can reach 4.8V, the components have great adjustability, and when applied to all-solid-state lithium metal batteries, they can exhibit good electrochemical performance. The preparation process is relatively simple, which is conducive to expanding production.
[0056] In some embodiments, in step S1, the raw materials are mixed at a temperature range of 60°C - 90°C for 5h - 7h to form a homogeneous electrolyte solution.
[0057] In some embodiments, in step S2, the obtained electrolyte solution is evenly scraped onto a glass plate with a spatula, and the scraping thickness is controlled by the size of the spatula to form a uniform electrolyte solution film.
[0058] In some embodiments, in step S2, the thickness range of the electrolyte solution coated on the carrier (glass plate) is 10um - 1000um. Preferably, the thickness range is 10um - 八百um.

[0059] It should be noted that there is an error in the original Chinese text where "八百um" is used.

[0094] Example 3
[0095] The difference from Example 1 is that the amount of LiFSI added is adjusted to 0.3g, while the rest is the same as Example 1.
[0096] The LSV test results of the electrochemical window in Example 3 are as follows: Figure 11 As shown in the figure, the electrochemical window of the polymer electrolyte can be further increased to 4.9V when the lithium salt concentration is reduced, indicating strong antioxidant capacity. However, the test results of ionic conductivity after reducing the lithium salt concentration are as follows: Figure 12 As shown, the ionic conductivity is 6.7 × 10⁻⁶. -5 S / cm.
[0097] Example 4
[0098] The difference from Example 1 is that TEP is replaced with TMP and LiFSI is replaced with LiDFOB. The specific preparation steps are as follows:

[0104] Comparative Example 1
[0105] The difference from Example 1 is that TEP is replaced with DMF, the vacuum drying temperature is adjusted to 80°C and maintained for 48 hours, and everything else is the same as Example 1.
[0106] The LSV test results for the electrochemical window of Comparative Example 1 are as follows: Figure 14 As shown in the figure, the electrochemical window of the polymer electrolyte with DMF as solvent is only 4.3V, indicating weak antioxidant capacity and easy decomposition under high voltage.
[0107] Furthermore, the initial charge-discharge curves of the Li / NCM811 battery assembled with DMF as the solvent at 4.5V are as follows: Figure 15 As shown in the figure, the full cell with DMF as the solvent for the polymer electrolyte exhibits continuous overcharging at a high voltage of 4.5V, resulting in the continuous decomposition of the polymer electrolyte at high voltage.
