Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of solid-state battery technology, specifically to a battery electrode, a solid-state battery cell, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] As users place increasingly higher demands on the energy density and lifespan of rechargeable batteries, solid-state batteries have become a major development direction. The core of solid-state batteries is to replace the flammable and explosive organic liquid electrolytes used in traditional lithium-ion batteries with solid electrolytes. The rigidity and non-flammability of solid electrolytes allow for compatibility with higher-capacity cathode and anode materials, significantly improving battery energy density and extending driving range. However, current technology still presents many challenges before practical application. Firstly, unlike traditional lithium-ion batteries where electrolytes create a good ion-contact interface between the electrolyte and electrode materials, solid-state batteries use rigid solid particles for both the electrolyte and active electrode materials (positive and negative electrodes). During charge-discharge cycles, the electrode materials inevitably expand and contract in volume due to lithium insertion and extraction. This microscopic deformation easily leads to porosity and poor contact at the solid-solid interface between electrolyte and active material particles, ultimately disrupting ion transport pathways, increasing internal resistance, decreasing rate performance, and reducing cycle capacity retention. On the other hand, solid-state batteries require the stacking and assembly of positive and negative electrodes, and the formation of an all-solid-state battery using an isostatic pressing process to provide ultra-high pressure. However, solid-state batteries often exhibit overhang designs (the negative electrode portion extends beyond the positive electrode portion), making the larger negative electrode edges prone to collapse under pressure and electrolyte membrane rupture. While existing technologies employ methods to partially fill the overhang region to reduce collapse, the isostatic pressing process in actual manufacturing involves further compaction of the electrode under high pressure due to the numerous pores within the electrode. This results in a decrease in height due to pressure, and the height change of the filler in the overhang region cannot match the change in electrode height, still posing a possibility of collapse and electrolyte membrane rupture. These risks can lead to contact between the positive and negative electrodes, short circuits, and severely limit the scaling up of all-solid-state battery sizes. Summary of the Invention

[0072] In a sixth aspect, the present invention provides an electrical device including the above-mentioned solid-state battery, wherein the solid-state battery serves as a power supply for the electrical device.
[0073] The beneficial effects of this invention are:
[0074] (1) The battery electrode provided by the present invention includes a current collector, an active material layer located on at least one side of the current collector, the active material layer including active material particles; at least a portion of the surface of the active material particles is coated with a first coating layer, and at least a portion of the surface of the first coating layer is coated with a second coating layer; the raw material of the first coating layer includes a lithium-containing composite oxide and a thiol-terminated silane; the raw material of the second coating layer includes a lithium salt and a first organic polymer monomer; the lithium-containing composite oxide includes at least one of Li2ZrO3, Li2TiO3, LiTaO3, and LiAlO2; the thiol-terminated silane includes at least one of 3-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane, γ-mercaptopropyltriethoxysilane, and γ-mercaptopropylmethyldimethoxysilane; the lithium salt includes at least one of lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide, lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide, lithium dioxaborate, lithium difluoroborate, and lithium tetrafluoroborate; the first organic polymer monomer includes a compound with a functionality of 1 to 3 acrylate groups. The battery electrode provided by this invention has an extremely high degree of internal density, which can effectively avoid the deformation caused by electrode shrinkage during the high-pressure forming process of solid-state batteries, and further short circuits. When applied to batteries, it can effectively suppress battery expansion during charging and discharging, and can provide lower resistance, good long-term cycle stability and rate performance.
[0075] Specifically, in the second coating layer on the surface of the active material particles, the first organic polymer, made from the first organic polymer monomer, enables dynamic adhesion between the materials in the active material layer, forming a nearly pore-free, highly dense all-solid-state electrode. This reduces interfacial impedance and exhibits excellent electrochemical performance and cycle stability. The raw materials for the second coating layer include lithium salt and the first organic polymer monomer. This allows the lithium salt to disrupt the ordered arrangement of monomer molecules during the preparation of the second coating layer, reducing crystallinity and increasing amorphous regions. This enhances the flexibility of the first organic polymer, facilitating dynamic adhesion between the second coating layer and other particles in the active material layer. Furthermore, coating the surface of the active material particles with the second coating layer avoids direct contact between the active material and the electrolyte, slows down interfacial reactions, and suppresses oxygen release from oxidized positive electrode active materials at high temperatures, thus helping to improve the cycle stability and thermal safety performance of the battery. In the first coating layer, the terminal mercapto silane anchors the second coating layer on the surface of the first coating layer through Si-OM covalent bonds and thioether bonds, where M is a non-lithium metal in the lithium-containing composite oxide. Specifically, oxygen in lithium-containing composite oxides readily undergoes hydrolysis to generate hydroxide ions. These hydroxide ions further react with terminal thiol-based silanes to form Si-OM (where M is a non-lithium metal in the composite oxide) covalent bonds through a condensation reaction. The terminal thiol groups (-SH) then undergo cross-linking reactions with the first organic polymer monomer, enabling the second coating layer to precisely encapsulate the surface of the active particles. Simultaneously, the cross-linking reaction also enhances the stability of the second coating layer.
[0076] The lithium-containing composite oxide includes at least one of Li2ZrO3, Li2TiO3, LiTaO3, and LiAlO2. Using a lithium-containing composite oxide with lithium conductivity can help improve the ionic conductivity of the battery.
[0077] The first organic polymer monomer comprises compounds with acrylate groups having a functionality of 1 to 3. The organic polymer obtained by polymerizing the first organic polymer monomer needs to have low hardness to facilitate dynamic adhesion between the particles of the active material layer. In the three-dimensional network framework formed by the first organic polymer, its internal -COC- segments can react with lithium ions (Li) dissociated from the lithium salt. + Coordination facilitates the dissociation of lithium salts and the transport of Li through localized movement of chain segments. + This improves ionic conductivity.
[0078] (2) The battery electrode provided by the present invention has a first coating layer that satisfies the following relationship: 0.7≤(b% / N2) / (n×a% / N1)≤1, where a% is the percentage of the mass of the lithium-containing composite oxide in the preparation of the first coating layer to the mass of the active material particles; b% is the percentage of the mass of the terminal mercaptosilane in the preparation of the first coating layer to the mass of the active material particles; n is the molar number of oxygen atoms per mole of the lithium-containing composite oxide; N1 is the molar mass of the lithium-containing composite oxide used in the preparation of the first coating layer, in g / mol; and N2 is the molar mass of the terminal mercaptosilane used in the preparation of the first coating layer, in g / mol. By specifying the relationship that the lithium-containing composite oxide and the terminal mercaptosilane in the first coating layer must satisfy through the above relationship, it can be ensured that the terminal mercaptosilane can effectively achieve the connection with the second coating layer, and will not affect the lithium-ion transport due to excessive use, thereby affecting the rate performance of the overall battery. More preferably, the first coating layer satisfies the following relationship: 0.85≤(b% / N2) / (n×a% / N1)≤1; which can further improve the rate performance of the battery.
[0079] (3) In the battery electrode provided by the present invention, 0.2%≤a%≤13%; 1%≤b%≤32%. Further control over the numerical range of a% and b% is beneficial to the realization of the above-mentioned relationship range.
[0080] (4) In the battery electrode provided by the present invention, the mass ratio of the first organic polymer monomer to the active material particles in the raw material of the second coating layer is 2~8:60~85; the mass of the lithium salt in the raw material of the second coating layer is 2%~10% of the mass of the first organic polymer monomer. The control of the mass ratio of lithium salt, first organic polymer monomer and active material particles within the above range can further improve the electrical performance of solid-state batteries.
[0081] (5) In the battery electrode provided by the present invention, the active material layer further includes solid electrolyte particles. Adding solid electrolyte particles to the active material layer can help improve the density of the electrode and improve its conductivity.
[0082] (6) The method for preparing the battery electrode provided by the present invention includes the following steps: S1: coating the surface of the active material particles with a lithium-containing composite oxide to obtain the active material particles with a first pretreatment; S2: mixing the active material particles with the first pretreatment with a thiol-terminated silane to obtain the active material particles with a first coating layer; S3: mixing the active material particles with the first coating layer, a first organic polymer monomer, a first initiator, and a lithium salt, performing a crosslinking reaction to obtain an active material mixture, pressing it to obtain an active material layer; S4: compositing the active material layer onto a current collector, photocuring it to obtain the battery electrode. The method for preparing the battery electrode provided by the present invention has simple steps and is convenient for large-scale production.
[0083] (7) In the above-mentioned method for preparing the battery electrode provided by the present invention, the mass of the first initiator is 0.5% to 5% of the mass of the first organic polymer monomer; controlling the amount of the first initiator within the above range can help control the degree of crosslinking of the first organic polymer, retain its chain segment mobility, make it have better dynamic characteristics, and be more conducive to ion conduction during use.
[0084] (8) In the above-mentioned method for preparing battery electrode sheets provided by the present invention, the coating method in S1 includes atomic layer deposition. Atomic layer deposition can make the prepared lithium-containing composite oxide more tightly coated on the surface of positive electrode active material particles or negative electrode active material particles; during the atomic layer deposition process, water vapor can be introduced to convert oxygen in the lithium-containing composite oxide into hydroxide ions.
[0085] (9) In the above-mentioned method for preparing the battery electrode provided by the present invention, solid electrolyte particles are added before pressing; conductive agent and binder are also added before pressing. That is, in the above-mentioned method for preparing the battery electrode provided by the present invention, solid electrolyte particles, conductive agent and binder can be mixed with active material particles, first organic polymer monomer, first initiator and lithium salt, without the need to first prepare active material particles coated with a second coating layer, and then mix them with conductive agent, binder and solid electrolyte particles to continue preparation, the preparation method is simple.
[0086] (10) The solid-state battery cell provided by the present invention includes the above-mentioned battery electrode or the battery electrode prepared by the above-mentioned battery electrode preparation method. The solid-state battery cell can give full play to the excellent performance of the above-mentioned battery electrode or the battery electrode prepared by the above-mentioned battery electrode preparation method, and has low expansion during charging and discharging, low resistance, good long-term cycle stability and rate performance.
[0087] (11) The solid-state battery cell provided by the present invention includes at least one unit cell, wherein the unit cell includes a positive electrode, a negative electrode, a solid electrolyte membrane, and an edge filler; the positive electrode, the solid electrolyte membrane, and the negative electrode are stacked, and the area of the negative electrode extending beyond the positive electrode to at least one side is an overhang region; the edge filler is located in the void region corresponding to the overhang region; the raw material of the edge filler includes a second organic polymer monomer; the positive electrode and / or the negative electrode are the aforementioned battery electrode, or battery electrode prepared by the aforementioned battery electrode preparation method. This solid-state battery cell, through the edge filler filling the void region corresponding to the overhang region, and the combination of the aforementioned battery electrode, or battery electrode prepared by the aforementioned battery electrode preparation method, achieves the coordination of edge filling and internal filling in the solid-state battery cell, which can better avoid cell deformation caused by electrode shrinkage, maintain cell integrity, greatly improve process yield, and provide a basis for the preparation of cells with higher design capacity.
[0088] Specifically, the voids corresponding to the overhang region are filled with edge fillers, including a second organic polymer monomer, forming an edge-locking structure that provides strong support to the overhang region and improves the flatness of the cell edges during manufacturing and use. Furthermore, the presence of the second coating layer increases the density of the active material layer, reducing the compression height of the positive and / or negative electrode sheets in subsequent cell manufacturing processes. In other words, during processing, the presence of the second coating layer results in less height variation of the electrode sheets, while the edge fillers support the overhang region. The combined effect of these two factors reduces the height variation of the cell during processing, thereby improving battery yield.
[0089] (12) In the solid-state battery cell provided by the present invention, the second organic polymer monomer includes a compound with a functionality of >3 acrylate groups. Using the above-mentioned specific monomer raw materials, the second organic polymer formed by the polymerization of the second organic polymer monomer can be further made to have a certain hardness; it does not have fluidity under no stress, avoiding the spread and flattening of the filler material; it has good plasticity under stress, and can creep to better shape and fit and connect the positive and negative electrodes, ensuring edge self-fixation. Furthermore, the second organic polymer monomer includes a compound with a functionality of 4 to 6 acrylate groups, which can control the first organic polymer from being too hard, and achieve a better edge self-fixation effect.
[0090] (13) The method for preparing the above-mentioned solid-state battery cell provided by the present invention includes the following steps: ① mixing a second organic polymer monomer and a second initiator to obtain an edge filler material mixture; ② combining a positive electrode sheet or a negative electrode sheet with a solid electrolyte membrane, then stacking them, and placing the edge filler material mixture into the overhang region; photocuring to obtain a unit cell. In this preparation method, the positive electrode sheet and the negative electrode sheet are stacked first, and then the edge filler material mixture is placed into the overhang region and photocured to obtain a unit cell. During photocuring, in addition to curing the edge filler filling the overhang region, the second coating layer on the surface of the active material particles in the positive electrode sheet and / or the negative electrode sheet can be further cured, further improving the manufacturing efficiency.

[0107] Example 1
[0108] This embodiment provides a solid-state battery cell and its preparation method, the process flow diagram of which is shown below. Figure 1 As shown, the specific steps include the following:
[0109] Preparation of positive electrode active material layer: by mass parts, take 70 parts of positive electrode active material particles, 20 parts of solid electrolyte particles, 2 parts of conductive agent, 2 parts of binder, and 6 parts of the first organic polymer monomer (hereinafter referred to as the first monomer); take the first initiator and lithium salt, wherein the mass of the first initiator is 0.5% of the mass of the first monomer, and the mass of the lithium salt is 6.4% of the mass of the first monomer.

[0111] Preparation of negative electrode active material layer: by mass parts, take 70 parts of negative electrode active material particles, 20 parts of solid electrolyte particles, 2 parts of conductive agent, 2 parts of binder, and 6 parts of first monomer; take the first initiator and lithium salt, wherein the mass of the first initiator is 0.5% of the mass of the first monomer, and the mass of the lithium salt is 6.4% of the mass of the first monomer.
[0112] The negative electrode active material particles are made of silicon-carbon material (Tianmu Pioneer SC3), with a D50 of about 7μm. The solid electrolyte is made of Li6PS5Cl, with a D50 of about 0.6μm. The conductive agent is made of carbon nanofibers. The binder is made of polytetrafluoroethylene. The first monomer is made of HDDA (1,6-hexanediol diacrylate). The first initiator is made of DEAP (α,α'-diethoxyacetophenone). The lithium salt is made of LiTFSI (lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide).
[0113] (1) Take 70 portions of the above positive electrode active material particles, each with a mass of 200g, and coat them with a Li2ZrO3 layer with a thickness of 10nm using atomic deposition to obtain the first pretreated positive electrode active material particles. The specific coating method is as follows: at 120℃ and 0.5Torr pressure, a volume ratio of 1:1 tetra(dimethylamino)zirconium and H2O vapor is introduced at a flow rate of 250sccm and a pulse time of 0.3s to deposit ZrO2; nitrogen gas is introduced at a flow rate of 35sccm and purged for 6s; a 1:1 ratio of lithium tert-butyloxy and H2O vapor is introduced at a flow rate of 500sccm and a pulse time of 0.2s to deposit a Li2O layer; nitrogen gas is introduced at a flow rate of 35sccm and purged for 7s; the above cycle is repeated 3 times from the introduction of tetra(dimethylamino)zirconium and H2O vapor to the last nitrogen purging to obtain a mixed deposition layer; heat to 450℃ and introduce O2 and Ar at a flow rate of 100sccm. A 1:1 volume ratio of mixed gas was annealed at a constant temperature for 1 hour to form a 10 nm Li2ZrO3 layer; H2O vapor was introduced at a flow rate of 35 sccm and treated for 30 minutes to achieve full hydroxylation of the surface coating.
[0114] The mass of the positive electrode active material particles coated with Li₂ZrO₃ is 203.32g. Therefore, the mass of Li₂ZrO₃ is 203.32g - 200g = 3.32g. a% = 3.32g / 200g × 100% = 1.66%. The molar number of oxygen atoms per mole of Li₂ZrO₃ is 3, n = 3.
[0115] 12.76 g of 3-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane was added to the positive electrode active material particles that underwent the first pretreatment. The mixture was stirred in a stirring device at 80 rpm rotation and 1000 rpm dispersion for 20 min to obtain positive electrode active material particles with the first coating layer.
[0116] b% = 12.76g / 200g × 100% = 6.38%.
[0117] (b% / N2) / (n×a% / N1)=(6.38% / 196.34) / (3×1.66% / 153.10)=1.00.
[0118] Take 70 portions of the above-mentioned negative electrode active material particles, each weighing 200g, and coat them with a 10nm thick Li₂ZrO₃ layer using atomic deposition to obtain the first pretreated negative electrode active material particles. The specific coating method is as follows: at 120℃ and 0.5 Torr pressure, a 1:1 volume ratio of tetrakis(dimethylamino)zirconium and H₂O vapor is introduced at a flow rate of 250 sccm with a pulse time of 0.3s to deposit ZrO₂; nitrogen gas is introduced at a flow rate of 35 sccm and purged for 6s; a 1:1 volume ratio of lithium tert-butyloxygenate and H₂O vapor is introduced at a flow rate of 500 sccm with a pulse time of 0.2s to deposit a Li₂O layer; nitrogen gas is introduced at a flow rate of 35 sccm and purged for 7s. This process, from the introduction of tetrakis(dimethylamino)zirconium and H₂O vapor to the final nitrogen purging, constitutes one cycle, which is repeated three times to obtain a mixed deposition layer; then, the mixture is heated to 450℃, and O₂ and Ar are introduced at a flow rate of 100 sccm. A 1:1 volume ratio of mixed gas was annealed at a constant temperature for 1 hour to form a 10 nm Li2ZrO3 layer; H2O vapor was introduced at a flow rate of 35 sccm and treated for 30 minutes to achieve full hydroxylation of the surface coating.
[0119] The mass of the negative electrode active material particles coated with Li₂ZrO₃ is 208.30g. Therefore, the mass of Li₂ZrO₃ is 208.30g - 200g = 8.30g. a% = 8.30g / 200g × 100% = 4.15%. The molar number of oxygen atoms per mole of Li₂ZrO₃ is 3, n = 3.
[0120] In the above-mentioned pretreated negative electrode active material particles, 32.00 g of 3-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane was added, and the mixture was stirred at 80 rpm and 1000 rpm for 20 min to obtain negative electrode active material particles with the first coating layer.
[0121] b%=32.00g / 200g×100%=16.00%.
[0122] (b% / N2) / (n×a% / N1)=(16.00% / 196.34) / (3×4.15% / 153.10)=1.0.
[0123] (2) According to the raw materials and amounts used in the preparation of the positive electrode active material layer, the positive electrode active material particles with the first coating layer, the first monomer, the first initiator, the lithium salt, the solid electrolyte particles and the conductive agent are mixed. At 80°C, the mixture is stirred in a stirring device at a rotation speed of 80 rpm and a dispersion speed of 4000 rpm for 40 min to carry out the in-situ crosslinking reaction. Then, the binder is added and the mixture is stirred for another 30 min at the above temperature and speed to carry out fibrillation.
[0124] The positive electrode active material layer is formed by roll-to-roll extrusion to thin it to a thickness of 125 μm.
[0125] A carbon-coated aluminum foil with a thickness of 14 μm was used as the positive electrode current collector. A layer of positive electrode active material was placed on each side of the positive electrode current collector. Hot pressing was carried out at 100℃ and a roll gap of 210 μm. At the same time, the positive electrode sheet with a thickness of 210 μm was obtained by irradiating it with ultraviolet light of 395 nm wavelength for 200 s.
[0126] The following is combined with Figure 2 The state of the positive electrode active material particles before and after the in-situ crosslinking reaction is described.
[0127] Figure 2 The diagram shows the state of the positive electrode active material particles 111 before and after the in-situ crosslinking reaction in step (2) of the solid-state battery cell 5 provided in this embodiment. The state before the crosslinking reaction is shown on the left, and the state after the crosslinking reaction is shown on the right. As can be seen in the left, at least part of the surface of the positive electrode active material particles 111 is tightly coated with a lithium-containing composite oxide 1141, and a terminal mercaptosilane 1142 is connected to the lithium-containing composite oxide 1141. After the crosslinking reaction, the terminal mercaptosilane 1142 achieves a tight connection between the second coating layer 113 and the first coating layer 114, thereby making the second coating layer 113 better coat the positive electrode active material particles 111.
[0128] (3) According to the raw materials and amounts used in the preparation of the negative electrode active material layer, the negative electrode active material particles with the first coating layer, the first monomer, the first initiator, the lithium salt, the solid electrolyte particles and the conductive agent are mixed and stirred at 80°C with a rotation speed of 80 rpm and a dispersion speed of 4000 rpm for 40 min to carry out the in-situ crosslinking reaction. Then, the binder is added and stirred for another 30 min at the above temperature and speed to carry out fibrillation.
[0129] The negative electrode active material layer is formed by roll-to-roll extrusion to thin it to a thickness of 65 μm.
[0130] A carbon-coated copper foil with a thickness of 8 μm was used as the negative electrode current collector. A layer of negative electrode active material was placed on each side of the negative electrode current collector. Hot pressing composite was carried out at 100℃ and a roll gap of 100 μm. At the same time, the negative electrode sheet with a thickness of 100 μm was obtained by irradiating with ultraviolet light of 395 nm wavelength for 200s.
[0131] (4) A solid electrolyte membrane was prepared by wet coating. Sulfide electrolyte membrane Li6PS5Cl and polyisobutylene (weight average molecular weight 1,000,000~3,000,000) were weighed at a mass ratio of 98:2, dissolved in ethyl acetate solvent, and stirred for 2 hours to obtain a slurry with a solid content of 45%. The slurry was coated and dried to obtain a solid electrolyte membrane with a thickness of 40 μm. The solid electrolyte membrane was then transferred onto both sides of the negative electrode sheet by roller pressing to obtain a negative electrode sheet composited with the solid electrolyte membrane.
[0132] (5) Cut a negative electrode sheet with a length × width of 100mm × 100mm and a positive electrode sheet with a length × width of 94mm × 94mm. Both the negative and positive electrode sheets retain inner tabs for subsequent welding. Place one negative electrode sheet with a solid electrolyte membrane at the bottom and one positive electrode sheet at the top, with the solid electrolyte membrane between the negative and positive electrode sheets. Align the centers of the two electrodes and fix them tightly.
[0133] A certain amount of DPHA was used as the second organic polymer monomer (hereinafter referred to as the second monomer), and 3.1% by mass of DEAP was used as the second initiator. DPHA and DEAP were mixed to obtain an edge filler material mixture. The regions on both sides of the negative electrode sheet in the width direction and both sides in the length direction that extend beyond the positive electrode sheet are called overhang regions. The edge filler material mixture was introduced into the overhang region of the negative electrode by stencil printing at a printing speed of 0.1 m / s and a printing thickness of 210 μm, to fill the overhang region in both the length and width directions. The mixture was then irradiated with ultraviolet light at a wavelength of 410 nm for 10 s to cure and form a single cell.
[0134] Take a single battery cell, remove the aluminum-plastic film, and take a picture of the actual product. (See attached image) Figure 3 It can be observed that the edges of its battery cells are flat and there is no collapse, and there is no obvious thickness difference between the edges and the surface.
[0135] (6) Take 5 of the above-mentioned unit cells and stack them from bottom to top with the negative electrode facing down. Place a layer of negative electrode with a solid electrolyte membrane on the top. Perform isostatic pressure treatment at 500MPa for 10 minutes to obtain solid battery cells.

[0152] Example 8
[0153] This embodiment provides a solid-state battery cell and its preparation method, which differs from Embodiment 2 in that:
[0154] The positive electrode active material layer is prepared as follows: by mass, 60 parts of positive electrode active material particles, 30 parts of solid electrolyte particles, 0.5 parts of conductive agent, 5 parts of binder, and 8 parts of the first monomer are taken; the first initiator and lithium salt are taken, wherein the mass of the first initiator is 5% of the mass of the first monomer, and the mass of the lithium salt is 2% of the mass of the first monomer.
[0155] LiNi is used as the positive electrode active material particle. 0.85 Co 0.1 Mn 0.05O2, D50 is 8μm, solid electrolyte particles are Li6PS5Cl, D50 is 0.76μm, conductive agent is acetylene black, binder is polytetrafluoroethylene, first monomer is PETA (pentaerythritol triacrylate), first initiator is HCPK (1-hydroxy-cyclohexyl benzophenone), lithium salt is lithium bisfluorosulfonylimide (LiFSI).
[0156] The negative electrode active material layer is prepared as follows: by mass, 85 parts of negative electrode active material particles, 5 parts of solid electrolyte particles, 2 parts of conductive agent, 0.5 parts of binder, and 2 parts of the first monomer are taken; the first initiator and lithium salt are taken, wherein the mass of the first initiator is 3% of the mass of the first monomer, and the mass of the lithium salt is 10% of the mass of the first monomer.
[0157] The negative electrode active material particles are made of pure silicon (Tianmu Pioneer) with a D50 of 5μm. The second solid electrolyte is made of Li6PS5Cl with a D50 of 0.4μm.

[0158] Step (1) involves taking 60 portions of the above-mentioned positive electrode active material particles, each weighing 170g, and coating them with a 2nm thick Li2TiO3 layer using atomic deposition to obtain the first pretreated positive electrode active material particles. The specific coating method is the same as in Example 1, using TiCl4 as the Ti source, and cycling once to obtain 2nm Li2TiO3.
[0159] The mass of the positive electrode active material particles coated with Li₂TiO₃ is 170.49g. Therefore, the mass of Li₂TiO₃ is 170.49g - 170g = 0.49g. a% = 0.49g / 170g × 100% = 0.29%. The molar number of oxygen atoms per mole of Li₂TiO₃ is 3, n = 3.

[0161] b% = 3.18g / 170g × 100% = 1.87%.
[0162] (b% / N2) / (n×a% / N1)=(1.87% / 238.42) / (3×0.29% / 109.75)=1.00.
[0163] Take 85 portions of the above-mentioned negative electrode active material particles, each weighing 240g, and coat them with a 2nm thick LiTaO3 using atomic deposition to obtain the first pretreated negative electrode active material particles.

[0166] b% = 4.84g / 240g × 100% = 2.02%.
[0167] (b% / N2) / (n×a% / N1)=(2.02% / 196.34) / (3×0.81% / 235.89)=1.00.
[0168] In step (5), the length × width of the positive electrode is 90mm × 90mm, the mass of the second initiator is 0.5% of the second monomer, the second monomer is DPHA (dipentaerythritol hexaacrylate), and the second initiator is HHMP (2-hydroxy-2-methyl-p-hydroxyethyl ether phenyl-1-propanone).

The conductive agent is Ketjen Black, the binder is polytetrafluoroethylene, the first monomer is TMPTA (trimethylolpropane triacrylate), the first initiator is HCPK (1-hydroxycyclohexyl benzophenone), and the lithium salt is lithium difluoroborate oxalate (LiDFOB).
[0175] Step (1) involves taking 85 portions of the above-mentioned positive electrode active material particles, each weighing 240g, and coating them with a 30nm thick LiAlO2 layer using atomic deposition to obtain the first pretreated positive electrode active material particles. The specific coating method is the same as in Example 1, with Al2O3 selected as the Ti source, and 30nm LiAlO2 obtained by 10 cycles.
[0176] The mass of the positive electrode active material particles coated with LiAlO2 is 247.5g. Therefore, the mass of Li2TiO3 is 247.5g - 240g = 7.5g. a% = 7.5g / 240g × 100% = 3.13%. The molar number of oxygen atoms per mole of LiAlO2 is 2, n = 2.
[0177] Add 44.68 g of 3-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane to the pretreated positive electrode active material particles and stir at 80 rpm and 1000 rpm for 20 min to obtain positive electrode active material particles with the first coating layer.
[0178] b%=44.68g / 240g×100%=18.62%.
[0179] (b% / N2) / (n×a% / N1)=(18.62% / 196.34) / (2×3.13% / 65.92)=1.00.
[0180] Take 170g of the above-mentioned 60 negative electrode active material particles and coat them with a 30nm thick LiTaO3 using atomic deposition to obtain the first pretreated negative electrode active material particles. The specific coating method is the same as in Example 1, with TaO2 as the Ta source, and the process is repeated 10 times to obtain 30nm LiTaO3.
[0181] The mass of the negative electrode active material particles coated with LiTaO3 is 190.66g. Therefore, the mass of LiTaO3 is 190.66g - 170g = 20.66g. a% = 20.66g / 170g × 100% = 12.15%. The molar number of oxygen atoms per mole of LiTaO3 is 3, n = 3.
[0182] In the above-mentioned pretreated negative electrode active material particles, 47.48g of γ-mercaptopropylmethyldimethoxysilane was added, and the mixture was stirred at 80 rpm and 1000 rpm for 20 min to obtain negative electrode active material particles with the first coating layer.
[0183] b%=47.48g / 170g×100%=27.93%.
[0184] (b% / N2) / (n×a% / N1)=(27.93% / 180.34) / (3×12.15% / 235.89)=1.00.
[0185] In step (6), the length × width of the positive electrode is 96mm × 96mm, the mass of the second initiator is 5% of the second monomer, the second monomer is PETTA (pentaerythritol tetraacrylate), and the second initiator is DEAP (α, α'-diethoxyacetophenone).

The slurry was coated and dried to obtain a solid electrolyte membrane with a thickness of 40 μm. The solid electrolyte membrane was then transferred onto both sides of the negative electrode sheet by roller pressing to obtain a negative electrode sheet with a solid electrolyte membrane.
[0193] (4) Cut a negative electrode sheet with a length and width of 100mm × 100mm and a positive electrode sheet with a length and width of 94mm × 94mm.

[0196] Comparative Example 3
[0197] This comparative example provides a solid-state battery cell and its preparation method. The only difference from Example 6 is that 3-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane is not added in the first pretreatment step of the negative electrode active material particles in step (1).
[0198] Comparative Example 4
[0199] This comparative example provides a solid-state battery cell and its preparation method. Compared with Example 6, the only difference is that in the first pretreatment of the negative electrode active material particles in step (1), polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is used to replace 3-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane by mass.
[0200] Comparative Example 5
[0201] This comparative example provides a solid-state battery cell and its preparation method. Compared with Example 6, the only difference is that the first monomer, the first initiator, and the lithium salt are not used in the preparation of the negative electrode active layer; the first monomer, the first initiator, and the lithium salt are not added in step (3); that is, the second coating layer is not prepared.
[0202] Comparative Example 6
[0203] This comparative example provides a solid-state battery cell and its preparation method.

Instead, the negative electrode active material particles are mixed with 3-mercaptopropyltrimethoxysilane and stirred to form negative electrode active material particles with a first coating layer.
[0208] Experimental Example 1
[0209] A CT scan was performed on the solid-state battery cell prepared in Example 10; the resulting images are shown below. Figure 7 ,in Figure 7 (a) is a top view. Figure 7 (b) is a side view.
[0210] from Figure 7 As can be seen in (a), in the top view, the solid-state battery cell prepared in Example 10 has a flat surface without cracks. The apparent edge depression is due to the low density of the edge filler, which cannot be displayed in the CT image. Figure 7As can be seen in (b), in the side view, the negative electrode in the overhang area of the cell is supported by the edge filler and is at the same height as the core (the filler is shown in black). In addition, no obvious solid electrolyte membrane rupture caused by edge collapse was observed, indicating that the edge filler plays a key role in preventing edge collapse.
[0211] Experiment Example 2
[0212] The positive electrode sheet from the solid-state battery cell prepared in Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 was cut out and subjected to micron-level CT scanning. The resulting images are shown in [images not provided]. Figure 8 . Figure 8 (a) is a cross-sectional CT scan image of the positive electrode sheet in Example 1, wherein the left image has lower contrast and the right image has higher contrast; Figure 8 (b) is a cross-sectional CT scan image of the positive electrode in Comparative Example 1, in which the left image has lower contrast and the right image has higher contrast; in the image with higher contrast, the black pores in the electrode can be seen more clearly.
[0213] from Figure 8 As can be seen in (a), the positive electrode sheet prepared in Example 1 has solid particles in close contact within the active material layer, with a density of up to 97% according to statistical data; from Figure 8 As can be seen in (b), the positive electrode sheet prepared in Comparative Example 1 shows obvious pores in the solid particles within the active material layer, with a density of approximately 90% according to statistical data. In the solid-state battery cell provided by the present invention, the coating of the active material particles with a first coating layer and a second coating layer plays a key role in optimizing the solid-solid contact.
[0214] Experimental Example 3
[0215] Solid-state battery cells prepared in the examples and comparative examples were packaged, and tabs were welded on. The tab size was 25×45mm. The cells were then fully sealed to obtain an all-solid-state battery. The battery's electrical performance was tested at 30°C.
[0216] (1) Capacity utilization: Connect the test equipment under 30MPa pressure, charge at 0.1C constant current to 4.25V, switch to 4.25V constant voltage charging to 0.02C current; after standing for half an hour, discharge at 0.1C constant current to 2.5V, cycle 3 times, and take the average discharge capacity.
[0217] (2) Battery internal resistance: When connected to an electrochemical workstation at a pressure of 30 MPa, the resistance is between 0.01 and 10 MPa. 5 Tests were conducted at a sweep rate of 5mV within the Hz range.
[0218] (3) Capacity retention rate of 1C / 0.1C discharge: Connect the test equipment under 30MPa pressure, charge at 0.1C constant current to 4.25V, then switch to 4.25V constant voltage charging to 0.02C current; discharge at 0.1C constant current to 2.5V, record the discharge capacity at 0.1C as Q0; after standing for 1 hour, charge at 1C constant current to 4.25V, then switch to 4.25V constant voltage charging to 0.02C current; discharge at 0.1C constant current to 2.5V, record the discharge capacity at 0.1C as Q1; calculate the capacity retention rate of 1C / 0.1C discharge = Q1 / Q0 × 100%.
[0219] (4) 100-cycle capacity retention rate: The battery capacity retention rate was tested under charge / discharge cutoff voltage of 2.5~4.25V and current density of 0.33C. Cycle capacity retention rate = discharge capacity of the 100th cycle / discharge capacity of the first cycle × 100%.
[0220] (5) Manufacturing yield: For each example and comparative example, 30 parallel samples of the corresponding solid-state battery cell were prepared. All solid-state batteries were prepared according to the above method and tested for short circuit. In each group of parallel samples, the number of short-circuited solid-state batteries was counted as W1, and the manufacturing yield was (30-W1) / 30×100%.
[0221] The test method for whether there is a short circuit is as follows: Connect the all-solid-state battery to the test equipment (Newway CE-500 electrical performance test channel), test the voltage, apply a pressure of 30MPa in the thickness direction of the solid-state battery cell, let it stand, and observe whether there is a voltage drop before and after the pressure is applied. If there is a voltage drop greater than 30mV, it is considered a short circuit.

The solid-state battery cells provided in this application are beneficial for maximizing the designed battery capacity and can deliver good long-term cycle stability and rate performance. The solid-state battery cells obtained in the comparative examples have poor performance, and due to the extremely low manufacturing yield in Comparative Example 2, no further testing of other electrical properties was conducted for safety reasons.
[0226] Experiment Example 4
[0227] The solid-state battery cells prepared in Example 1, Comparative Examples 1 and 5 were used to test their safety performance.
[0228] (1) Oxygen release temperature and enthalpy of oxygen release by DSC (differential scanning calorimetry) of positive electrode: Take 2~10mg of the fully charged (100% SOC) positive electrode from Example 1, Comparative Examples 1 and 5 respectively, and place the sample in the DSC crucible; under N2 atmosphere, the heating rate is 5-10℃ / min, and the test is carried out to 300℃. The DSC curve is recorded and analyzed.
[0229] (2) Hot box test: Charge the solid-state battery cells to 100% SOC, place them in the hot box with clamps, monitor the cell voltage and temperature, raise the hot box to 130℃ and keep it warm for 30 minutes; if the cell does not catch fire or explode, continue to raise the temperature by 10℃ and keep it warm for 30 minutes until the cell catches fire and explodes, and record the temperature at the time of thermal runaway.
