Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of energy storage battery technology, and in particular to a modified styrene-butadiene rubber polymer, a negative electrode sheet, a method for preparing the same, and a lithium-ion battery. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of lithium-ion batteries, the requirements for battery energy density, cycle performance, rate performance, and high and low temperature performance are constantly increasing. Conventional SBR (Selective Bioreactor) for the negative electrode is nearing its limit in terms of binder usage. Insufficient SBR usage leads to low electrode binder strength, resulting in C-corner powder shedding and lithium plating during battery fabrication. Furthermore, conventional SBR lacks ion-conducting capabilities and has poor kinetic performance, offering no significant improvement to fast-charging and low-temperature performance. During cycling, as the negative electrode material expands and contracts during lithium insertion / extraction, interfacial failures easily occur between the binder and the active material, as well as between binders themselves, leading to reduced battery capacity retention in the later stages of cycling. To meet these ever-increasing demands, there is an urgent need to develop binders with high adhesion, high kinetics, and self-healing capabilities to cope with negative electrode expansion and contraction during cycling.

Simultaneously, its flexibility improves electrode brittleness, preventing powder shedding and burr formation during pressing, which could lead to battery short circuits. Furthermore, its flexibility prevents lithium plating caused by powder shedding at the C-corner during winding and hot pressing. Meanwhile, the rigid styrene monomer ensures good mechanical strength of the electrode. The introduction of polar functional groups such as carboxyl, ester, and amide groups into the modified SBR can interact with Li... + Coordination, thereby enhancing the SBR's response to Li + The modified SBR enhances the battery's transmission capacity, rate capability, and low-temperature performance. Simultaneously, the amide and cyano groups exhibit excellent high-temperature stability, which benefits the battery's high-temperature cycling and storage performance. The introduction of polar functional groups such as carboxyl and amide groups into the modified SBR promotes the formation of intermolecular hydrogen bonds. These hydrogen bonds can be repeatedly rebuilt and self-repaired during electrode expansion and contraction, thus ensuring a longer cycle life for the battery. Attached Figure Description

9. A method for preparing the negative electrode sheet according to claim 8, characterized in that, Includes the following steps: (1) The negative electrode active material and the conductive agent are fed and mixed according to the set ratio. After stirring at low speed, some CMC adhesive and deionized water are added. After mixing thoroughly, the solid content is adjusted for the first time. (2) Add CMC adhesive and deionized water to the above mixed slurry again, stir thoroughly, and then perform a second solid content adjustment; (3) Add a specific amount of CMC adhesive and deionized water to the mixed slurry obtained in (2) again, mix thoroughly, and then perform a third solid content adjustment; after that, adjust the slurry viscosity to 3000cp by adjusting the amount of deionized water added. Preferably, the ratio of CMC adhesive in steps (1), (2), and (3) is 0.6:0.2:0.2; (4) Add the SBR to the obtained mixed slurry, stir at low speed, vacuum, and sieve to discharge; (5) The obtained negative electrode slurry is coated on the surface of the negative electrode current collector and then rolled into a sheet to obtain a negative electrode sheet.

10. A lithium-ion battery, characterized in that, It includes the negative electrode sheet as described in claim 8, and the positive electrode sheet; preferably, the active material of the positive electrode sheet is one of lithium iron phosphate, lithium manganese iron phosphate, and lithium cobalt oxide.
