Background Technology
[0002] All-solid-state lithium metal batteries combine high energy density and high safety, and are considered an important development direction for next-generation energy storage devices. However, polymer-based solid electrolytes generally suffer from low ionic conductivity, low lithium-ion transference number, and unstable electrode / electrolyte interfaces at near-room temperature, especially at low temperatures, which severely limits their practical applications. Although polymer-inorganic composite solid electrolytes can improve mechanical properties and interfacial compatibility to some extent, existing research mostly focuses on reducing polymer crystallinity or introducing additional ion transport channels, and the regulation of the lithium-ion coordination environment and its desorption and migration processes at the filler / polymer interface remains insufficient.
[0003] In existing technologies, while conventional inert or active inorganic fillers can improve the overall performance of polymer electrolytes, they typically struggle to simultaneously achieve high ionic conductivity, high lithium-ion transport number, and a stable lithium metal interface at low temperatures. Therefore, developing a novel composite solid-state electrolyte capable of controlling lithium-ion coordination and transport behavior at the interface scale is of great significance for realizing all-solid-state lithium metal batteries with stable operation at low temperatures. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the problems of low ionic conductivity, low lithium-ion transference number, and poor lithium metal interface stability in polymer-based solid electrolytes under near-room temperature and low-temperature conditions, and to provide a Mg-containing electrolyte. 1-x Li x PEO composite solid electrolyte membrane with F2 filler, its preparation method, and its application. The composite solid electrolyte membrane can improve lithium-ion transport performance and lithium metal interface stability while maintaining polymer flexibility, thus making it suitable for low-temperature operating all-solid-state lithium metal batteries.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: The present invention provides a Mg-containing... 1-x Li x F2-filled PEO composite solid electrolyte membrane, its preparation method and application, wherein the composite solid electrolyte membrane comprises a polyethylene oxide polymer matrix, a lithium salt and Mg dispersed in the polyethylene oxide polymer matrix. 1-x Li x F2 inorganic filler; wherein, the Mg 1-x Li xF2 inorganic filler is formed by treating MgF2 in a system containing acetonitrile and dimethyl sulfoxide, and the surface of the inorganic filler has Li Mg It can eliminate defects and form an interface structure with polyethylene oxide segments in the interface region that is conducive to lithium-ion transport, thereby reducing the degree of lithium-ion binding at the interface and promoting lithium-ion migration.
[0006] The present invention also provides a method for preparing the above-mentioned composite solid electrolyte, comprising the following steps: 1) Add MgF2 powder to acetonitrile, then add dimethyl sulfoxide, and treat under heating and stirring conditions at 60 °C to obtain a filler system containing Mg vacancy precursor characteristics; 2) Add polyethylene oxide and lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonylimide) to the system, and continue heating and stirring to obtain a homogeneous electrolyte precursor solution; 3) The precursor solution was poured into a polytetrafluoroethylene mold and dried under vacuum to obtain PEO / LiTFSI-Mg. 1- x Li x F2 composite solid electrolyte membrane.
[0007] This invention provides a Mg-containing 1-x Li x The PEO composite solid electrolyte membrane with F2 filler, its preparation method, and its application have the following advantages compared with existing technologies: 1) The preparation method is simple and the conditions are mild. This invention uses MgF2, acetonitrile and a small amount of dimethyl sulfoxide to construct a precursor system, which is then directly composited with PEO and LiTFSI to form a film. The process route is simple, the preparation conditions are mild, and it is easy to scale up. 2) It can significantly improve the ion transport performance of the composite electrolyte. The composite solid electrolyte obtained in this invention can achieve approximately 0.158 mS / cm at 30℃. -1 The ionic conductivity and lithium-ion transference number of approximately 0.56 are significantly better than those of the PEO / LiTFSI control system without MgF2. 3) It can significantly improve the stability of the lithium metal interface and the low-temperature cycling stability. After the composite solid electrolyte of this invention comes into contact with lithium metal, it can form a LiF-rich interface layer, reduce the interface impedance and suppress lithium dendrite growth, enabling the Li||Li symmetric battery to achieve long-term stable cycling at room temperature and below.
