Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of solid-state battery technology, and specifically relates to a high-entropy all-solid-state electrolyte, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] The high flammability of liquid electrolytes makes batteries extremely dangerous in the event of thermal runaway. Solid electrolytes, as a type of non-flammable super ionic conductor, possess extremely high thermal stability and mechanical strength. Among them, halide solid electrolytes have recently attracted much attention due to their excellent lithium-ion conductivity and good electrochemical compatibility with cathode materials. However, when the voltage exceeds 4.3 volts, chloride ions in halide solid electrolytes undergo severe oxidation, leading to a decline in performance and a significant increase in the interfacial resistance between the cathode and the halide solid electrolyte. Furthermore, the poor electrochemical stability of halide solid electrolytes easily triggers side reactions during solid-state battery cycling, resulting in structural damage, reduced cycle stability, and battery failure.

[0003] The high-entropy design of solid-state electrolytes can exhibit unique chemical / physical properties not found in traditional materials. Differences in atomic radii within high-entropy materials induce localized lattice distortions, thereby altering the energy barriers for element migration. This effect effectively modulates the kinetics of different elements within the structure, demonstrating the potential of high-entropy materials to mitigate corrosion and improve material stability. High-entropy stability effect (configurational entropy S) config >1.5R) can induce a thermodynamically stable state and promote a uniform distribution of elements. Therefore, high-entropy halide solid electrolytes hold promise for maintaining high Li content. + While improving electrical conductivity, it also enhances the electrochemical stability of halide solid electrolytes. However, the formation conditions for high-entropy structures are quite stringent, and the selection and ratio of elements incorporated into the electrolyte have a significant impact on the performance of the prepared high-entropy materials.

[0004] To address the high entropy of halide electrolytes, there are three main approaches based on the doping elements: cation high entropy doping (cation doping), anion high entropy doping (anion doping), and mixed cation-anion high entropy doping (mixed cation-anion doping). Among these, anion doping is the most widely used method to improve the high-voltage stability of halide solid electrolytes. However, due to the high electronegativity of common anions such as F, improving high-voltage stability often comes at the cost of sacrificing ionic conductivity, leading to a decrease in the electrochemical performance of halide solid electrolytes. Therefore, selecting appropriate elements to form a stable high-entropy structure and developing halide solid electrolytes that simultaneously satisfy high room-temperature ionic conductivity, high oxidation stability potential, good cycling stability, and low resource cost is of great significance. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies, the main objective of this invention is to provide a high-entropy all-solid-state electrolyte, its preparation method, and its applications. This invention introduces localized chemical disorder and distortion at cation sites to disrupt site energies, causing energy overlap between adjacent sites and thus promoting ion mobility. Furthermore, by limiting the vibrational range of chloride ions through localized lattice distortion, the oxidation reaction is kinetically suppressed, ultimately achieving a high-entropy state design for a halide solid-state electrolyte that simultaneously achieves high-pressure stability and high ionic conductivity.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a high-entropy all-solid-state electrolyte, wherein the chemical formula of the high-entropy all-solid-state electrolyte is Li. a M b Zr c Cl 6-x Br x Where M is a doped metal element, including Yb, Ce, Er, and In; 0≤x≤2.5, a+3b+4c=6, 1≤a≤5, and 0.2≤b≤1.

[0007] Furthermore, the high-entropy all-solid-state electrolyte Li a M b Zr c Cl 6-x Br x In the equation, 1.0≤x≤1.8, 2.5≤a≤3.5, and 0.6≤b≤1.

[0008] In another aspect, the present invention provides a method for preparing the aforementioned high-entropy all-solid-state electrolyte, comprising the following steps: weighing halides LiCl, LiBr, YbCl3, CeCl3, ErCl3, InCl3 and ZrCl4 according to the chemical formula ratio of the high-entropy all-solid-state electrolyte, and then mixing, grinding and pulverizing the weighed raw materials to obtain the pulverized precursor; The pulverized precursor is ball-milled, and then the ball-milled precursor is sintered under an inert atmosphere and cooled to obtain the high-entropy all-solid electrolyte.

[0009] Furthermore, the sintering temperature is 240~300℃, and the holding time is 4~24h.

[0010] Furthermore, the heating rate of the sintering is 0.5~3℃ / min.

[0011] Furthermore, the mixing and grinding time is 15-30 minutes.

[0012] Furthermore, during the pulverization process, the pulverization speed is 20,000~30,000 rpm / min, the total running time is 3~5 min, and the pulverizer is allowed to stand for 1~2 min after every 30 seconds of operation.

[0013] Furthermore, during the ball milling process, the ball milling speed is 200-600 rpm / min.

[0014] Furthermore, the ball milling adopts a circulating ball milling method, with 24 to 48 cycles, each cycle consisting of 15 minutes of ball milling followed by 5 minutes of resting.

[0015] In another aspect, the present invention provides the application of the aforementioned high-entropy all-solid-state electrolyte in lithium-ion solid-state batteries.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: (1) This invention achieves a synergistic effect by selecting multiple elements such as Yb, Ce, Er, and Zr to perform high-entropy substitution of In sites with cations, combined with Cl / Br mixed anions. The chemical disorder and lattice distortion caused by high-entropy substitution reduce the chemical density of Li. + The migration energy barrier, while the mixed anion-induced phase transition forms a more favorable Li + The migration channel significantly improves both ionic conductivity and electrochemical oxidation stability, successfully resolving the contradiction that traditional methods often fail to achieve both simultaneously.

[0017] (2) By designing specific cationic elements and ratios, the present invention utilizes the cationic elements introduced into the electrolyte to cause local lattice distortion, which kinetically limits the vibration range of chloride ions, effectively suppresses oxidation reaction under high voltage, and thus achieves high voltage stability.

[0018] (3) Optimized preparation process: The present invention adopts a two-step mechanical activation method of "high-speed crushing + ball milling" to ensure the uniform mixing of multiple elements at the atomic level, which lays the foundation for the formation of a uniform and stable high-entropy structure. Controlling the slow heating rate of sintering helps to obtain electrolyte sheets with fine grains and dense structure, thereby improving their overall performance.

[0019] (4) The lithium-ion solid-state battery assembled using the high-entropy all-solid-state electrolyte of the present invention is particularly suitable for high-voltage cathode systems, and can exhibit high coulombic efficiency and good cycle stability, and has important commercial application prospects.

Figure 3The cyclic voltammetry spectra of the high-entropy all-solid-state electrolyte material of Example 1 and the Li3InCl6 electrolyte material of Comparative Example 1 are shown. Detailed Implementation

[0021] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. Furthermore, regarding the numerical ranges in this invention, it should be understood that each intermediate value between the upper and lower limits of the range is also specifically disclosed. Each smaller range between any stated value or intermediate value within a stated range, and any other stated value or intermediate value within said range, is also included within this invention. The upper and lower limits of these smaller ranges may be independently included or excluded from the range. The invention will now be described in detail with reference to embodiments.

[0022] To achieve the above objectives, a first aspect of the present invention provides a high-entropy all-solid-state electrolyte, the high-entropy all-solid-state electrolyte having the chemical formula Li. a M b Zr c Cl 6-x Br x Where M is a doped metal element, including Yb, Ce, Er, and In; 0≤x≤2.5, a+3b+4c=6, 1≤a≤5, and 0.2≤b≤1.

[0023] This invention employs high-entropy substitution of In sites with cations using multiple elements such as Yb, Ce, Er, and Zr, combined with a Cl / Br mixed anion. The phase transition caused by the mixed Cl / Br anion obtained through bromination leads to disproportionate octahedral expansion and distortion, forming a structure favorable for Li... + The migration transport path. Specifically, in the (001) plane, the Li-M electrostatic repulsion may promote the migration of Li... + Diffusion to the M-free (002) layer enables fast in-plane Li + Movement, and promotes exchange between 2d and 4h sites.

[0024] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the high-entropy all-solid-state electrolyte Li a M b Zr c Cl 6-x Br x In the equation, 1.0≤x≤1.8, 2.5≤a≤3.5, and 0.6≤b≤1.

[0025] The value of x has a crucial impact on electrolyte performance. Specifically, the framework constructed by mixed anions induces structural disorder, giving the electrolyte better flexibility and compaction capabilities. This results in tighter interfacial contact during use, effectively suppressing the problem of limited ion transport caused by poor contact. Furthermore, Br, with its stronger polarization ability... - It can be used for migrating ions (such as Li) + This results in more effective charge shielding, weakens the interaction between the Br and the framework, significantly reduces the migration energy barrier, and thus achieves higher ionic conductivity. Therefore, too low a Br doping level is insufficient to achieve the above effects, while too high a doping level may lead to decreased crystal structure stability or even collapse, causing early performance degradation of the electrolyte.

The present invention, through high-speed pulverization, not only physically refines the reactants but also makes the elements more uniformly mixed, creating favorable conditions for the uniform combination of multiple elements in subsequent high-speed ball milling, ultimately forming a uniform product with a single composition.

[0032] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the ball milling speed is 200-600 rpm during the ball milling process. The ball milling of the present invention can be carried out in a ball mill equipped with zirconia balls (5 mm in diameter) at a ball-to-material ratio of 20-50:1.

[0033] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the ball milling is a circulating ball milling, with 24 to 48 cycles, each cycle consisting of 15 minutes of ball milling followed by 5 minutes of resting.

[0058] Performance testing: Ionic conductivity: Ionic conductivity was tested using the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). First, 200 mg of the electrolyte synthesized in the above examples and comparative examples was weighed and directly cold-pressed into sheets. Then, a symmetrical battery structure was assembled using a stainless steel blocking electrode and the electrolyte sheet. The assembled battery was subjected to electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) testing using an electrochemical workstation. The frequency range of the EIS test was set to 1 MHz to 1 Hz, and the voltage amplitude was 10 mV. Based on the characteristics of the EIS curve, the total impedance value was extracted. Combined with the thickness and area of ​​the electrolyte sheet, the ionic conductivity was calculated using the following formula: σ = L / (R × S), where: σ represents the ionic conductivity (unit: S / cm); L is the thickness of the solid electrolyte sheet (unit: cm); R is the bulk resistance of the electrolyte measured by the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) (unit: Ω); and S is the effective contact area between the electrode and the electrolyte (unit: cm²). 2 The test results are shown in Table 1.
