Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application belongs to the field of solid-state batteries, specifically relating to a composite solid-state electrolyte membrane and its preparation method, a solid-state battery, a battery pack, and an electrical device. Background Technology
[0002] With the surge in demand for high-energy-density and high-safety energy storage, all-solid-state lithium batteries are considered the core direction of next-generation battery technology. As the core component of solid-state batteries, solid electrolyte membranes need to have high ionic conductivity, low interfacial impedance, and excellent machinability. The current mainstream technical routes include inorganic ceramic electrolytes, polymer electrolytes, and organic-inorganic composite electrolytes, but all of them have significant technical bottlenecks, mainly reflected in the following aspects: (1) Single inorganic electrolyte system: Although sintered ceramic electrolytes have high ionic conductivity, the rigid interface results in a low electrode / electrolyte contact area (<60%) and an interfacial impedance as high as 10. 3 Ω·cm 2 The magnitude is also significant. Simultaneously, it exhibits brittle characteristics (fracture toughness <2 MPa·m). 1 / 2 (1) The film thickness is difficult to reduce to below 50 μm, which seriously restricts the improvement of the volumetric energy density of solid-state batteries. (2) Pure polymer electrolyte system: Pure polymer electrolyte system relies on chain segment movement to conduct ions, and the room temperature conductivity is generally low. Although plasticizer doping can improve its conductivity, it sacrifices its mechanical strength (tensile strength <1MPa) and deteriorates its thermal stability. (3) Traditional organic-inorganic composite electrolyte: The wet process introduces solvent residue, which easily leads to side reactions, and drying shrinkage leads to microcracks; and single-size fillers are prone to local agglomeration, and inorganic fillers are randomly distributed and cannot form continuous ion channels.

[0042] A second aspect of this application provides a method for preparing the composite solid electrolyte membrane of the first aspect. According to embodiments of this application, the method includes: S100: The polymer matrix and lithium salt are mixed and stirred, heated and sheared to form a first molten slurry, which is then extruded, cooled and shaped, and granulated to obtain lithium-ionized polymer electrolyte particles. In this step, a certain proportion of polymer matrix and lithium salt are weighed out and mixed evenly at room temperature. Then, the mixture is heated and sheared under certain temperature and stirring conditions using a first twin-screw extruder to ensure thorough mixing and melting into a stable slurry. After extrusion through a specific extruder die, it is directly cooled, shaped, and granulated. Thus, pre-lithiation of the polymer matrix can effectively increase the lithium-ion network in the polymer electrolyte, giving the lithium-ionized polymer solid electrolyte certain ion-conducting properties and further reducing interfacial impedance.

[0046] In this step, lithiated polymer electrolyte particles, a first inorganic solid electrolyte, and a second inorganic solid electrolyte are mixed and thoroughly mixed under specific temperature and stirring conditions. The mixture is then heated and melted using a second twin-screw extruder, and sheared to obtain a melt mixture. This melt is then cast into a film through an extruder die, and the cast film is directly cooled and shaped to obtain the composite solid electrolyte membrane. Therefore, the dry melt casting process can achieve uniform composite formation of lithiated polymer electrolyte, a first inorganic solid electrolyte, and a second inorganic solid electrolyte under solvent-free conditions, avoiding interfacial side reactions and porosity defects. The combined casting-hot pressing process enables low-cost, large-scale production. Furthermore, the high-speed shear-induced lithiation of the polymer electrolyte system forms a coarse fiber network, whose three-dimensional interconnected structure enhances the mechanical strength of the solid electrolyte membrane while facilitating lithium-ion transport.

More preferably, the mixing time is 0.5h to 3h.
[0048] According to some specific embodiments of this application, the melt extrusion temperature of the second twin-screw extruder is 100℃~250℃ (for example, it can be 100℃, 120℃, 140℃, 160℃, 180℃, 200℃, 220℃, 250℃ or any range between the two), and the screw speed is 10r / min~200r / min (for example, it can be 10r / min, 50r / min, 70r / min, 100r / min, 120r / min, 150r / min). The speed range is 180 r / min, 200 r / min, or any range between two of these values. The cooling and setting temperature is 5℃~25℃ (e.g., 5℃, 10℃, 15℃, 20℃, 25℃, or any range between two of these values), and the traction speed is 0.1 m / min~1 m / min (e.g., 0.1 m / min, 0.2 m / min, 0.4 m / min, 0.6 m / min, 0.8 m / min, 1 m / min, or any range between two of these values). This further ensures the uniform composite of the lithiated polymer electrolyte, the first inorganic solid electrolyte, and the second inorganic solid electrolyte under solvent-free conditions, avoiding interfacial side reactions and porosity defects. Furthermore, it further ensures that the lithiated polymer electrolyte system forms a coarse fiber network, whose three-dimensional interconnected structure enhances the mechanical strength of the solid electrolyte membrane while facilitating lithium-ion transport.
[0049] Furthermore, the above method also includes: S300: The composite solid electrolyte membrane obtained in step S200 is subjected to multi-stage hot pressing under certain temperature and pressure to reduce it to the required thickness.
[0050] In some specific embodiments, the hot pressing temperature is 50℃~200℃ and the pressure is 2MPa~20MPa.
[0051] As some specific embodiments, the processes of steps S100 to S300 described above must be carried out in a glove box or dew point room.
[0052] The method for preparing composite solid electrolyte membranes according to the above embodiments of this application utilizes a dry melt casting process to achieve uniform composite formation of a lithiated polymer electrolyte, a first inorganic solid electrolyte, and a second inorganic solid electrolyte under solvent-free conditions, effectively avoiding interfacial side reactions and porosity defects.

[0101] The parameters of the above embodiments and comparative examples are shown in Table 1.
[0102] Table 1
[0103] Test example: 1) Thickness Thickness testing was performed using a Maer thickness gauge in accordance with national standard GB / T 6672-2001 and ISO 4593:1993.
[0104] 2) Particle size statistics Offline statistical analysis—SEM / image method—was employed. In an argon-atmospheric glove box (H2O < 0.1 ppm, O2 < 1 ppm), a small amount of inorganic solid electrolyte powder was uniformly dispersed in a strictly dehydrated inert solvent. A drop of the dispersion was placed on a clean silicon wafer or aluminum foil, and the solvent was allowed to evaporate completely within the glove box, leaving dispersed particles, which were then attached to the SEM sample stage. The sample was then transferred from the glove box to the SEM or FIB-SEM (Focused Ion Beam Scanning Electron Microscopy) chamber using a dedicated transfer rod or vacuum transport box, avoiding contact with air. Multiple SEM or cross-sectional SEM images were captured at different magnifications to ensure statistical randomness and representativeness. Particle size statistics were performed using image analysis software (ImageJ, Nano Measurer, etc.), which generated a list of all measured particle sizes. Based on this list, a quantity-particle size distribution histogram and a cumulative distribution curve were plotted. The D-value was directly read from the cumulative distribution curve. 10 D 50 D 90 Dmax Equivalent (Note: This D) 50 Based on the quantity D 50 ).
[0105] 3) Cross-sectional morphology In an argon-atmospheric glove box (H2O < 0.1 ppm, O2 < 1 ppm), a composite solid electrolyte membrane measuring approximately 0.6 mm × 0.6 mm was cut and fixed onto a sample stage coated with conductive adhesive. The sample was then transferred from the glove box to the FIB-SEM (Focused Ion Beam Scanning Electron Microscopy) chamber using a dedicated transfer rod or vacuum transport box, avoiding contact with air. A cross-section of the composite solid electrolyte membrane was cut using a FIB system with a gallium ion beam as the emission source, and the microstructure and solid electrolyte particle distribution were observed using SEM. Simultaneously, EDS-mapping can be used to further analyze the elemental distribution of the composite solid electrolyte membrane cross-section.
[0106] 4) Tensile strength The composite solid electrolyte membrane was cut into 10mm × 100mm sample strips, and tensile tests were performed on them along the length of the strips. The clamping distance was set to 40mm, and the tensile rate was 50mm / min. Three strips were prepared for each sample, and the final result was the average value. The calculation formula is: tensile strength σ = F / S, where F is the maximum force that the sample can withstand when it breaks, and S is the original cross-sectional area.
[0107] 5) Ionic conductivity Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) of the composite solid electrolyte membrane was obtained using the AC impedance method, and the ionic conductivity of the composite solid electrolyte membrane was calculated from this. The specific operation steps were as follows: the composite solid electrolyte membrane was cut into circular samples with a diameter of 10 mm using a cutting machine, and assembled into a clamp battery of stainless steel sheet (SS) / solid electrolyte membrane / stainless steel sheet (SS) system in an argon atmosphere glove box (H2O<0.1ppm, O2<1ppm).
[0108] AC impedance testing was performed at room temperature using an electrochemical workstation. A two-electrode system was used, with the test voltage set to 0V, the scanning frequency range of 0.1Hz to 1MHz, and the amplitude of 10mV. The bulk impedance of the composite solid electrolyte membrane was calculated based on the intersection of the high-frequency line and the real axis in the impedance spectrum. The ionic conductivity σ was then calculated using the formula: σ = d / (R•S), where d is the thickness of the composite solid electrolyte membrane (µm), and S is the effective area of the composite solid electrolyte membrane (0.785cm²). 2 R is the bulk impedance (Ω) of the composite solid electrolyte membrane. Measure three or more parallel samples and calculate the average value.
[0109] 6) Electronic conductivity: The mold battery was assembled according to the method for testing ionic conductivity.
[0110] At room temperature, constant voltage polarization was performed using an electrochemical workstation (E1=0.2V, 30min; E2=0.1V, 30min). The resistance was calculated using DC current and voltage drop, and then the conductivity was calculated.
[0111] Calculation method: R'=(E2-E1) / (I2-I1), electronic conductivity σ e- =d / (R'•S), where d is the thickness of the composite solid electrolyte membrane (µm), and S is the effective area of the composite solid electrolyte membrane (0.785cm²). 2 Let E be the steady-state voltage, I be the steady-state current, and R' be the steady-state resistance (Ω). Measure three or more parallel samples and calculate the average value.
[0112] The test results are shown in Table 2 below.
[0113] Table 2
[0114] As shown in Table 2 above, comparing Examples 1-16 and Comparative Examples 1-4, the solid electrolyte membrane provided in this application exhibits excellent mechanical strength and ionic conductivity. By employing multi-scale particle gradation of the inorganic solid electrolyte, large particles construct the framework to reduce interfacial impedance, while small particles fill the gaps to enhance bulk conductivity, effectively reducing interfacial impedance. Simultaneously, the addition of dissociable lithium salts increases the lithium-ion conduction network in the polymer electrolyte, and the polymer electrolyte uniformly coats at least a portion of the surface of the inorganic solid electrolyte, resulting in a solid electrolyte membrane with good flexibility and ion conduction properties, further reducing interfacial impedance. Furthermore, the use of a high-speed shear-induced lithiation polymer electrolyte system to form a coarse fiber network, retaining a three-dimensional interconnected structure, enhances the mechanical strength of the solid electrolyte membrane while facilitating lithium-ion transport. All these factors contribute to improving the mechanical strength and electrochemical performance of the solid electrolyte membrane.
