[0001] The present application relates to the field of electrochemical technology, and in particular to a secondary battery and an electronic device. Background Art
[0002] Secondary batteries, such as lithium-ion batteries, have the advantages of high specific energy, light weight, and long cycle life, and are widely used in consumer batteries.
[0003] As electronic products become thinner and more portable, the energy density can be greatly improved by increasing the charging cut-off voltage of lithium-ion batteries. However, the high-temperature storage performance and high-temperature cycle performance of lithium-ion batteries are facing higher challenges.
[0004] Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide a secondary battery and an electronic device to improve the high-temperature storage performance and high-temperature cycle performance of the secondary battery. The specific technical solution is as follows:
[0006] The first aspect of the present application provides a secondary battery, which includes a positive electrode plate, a negative electrode plate and an electrolyte, the positive electrode plate includes a positive electrode material layer, the positive electrode material layer includes a positive electrode active material, the positive electrode active material includes cobalt and magnesium, and based on the mass of the positive electrode material layer, the mass percentage of the magnesium element is divided into A%, 0.1≤A≤5, preferably 0.5≤A≤3. For example, the value of A can be 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5 or a range consisting of any two values therein. The electrolyte includes a fluorinated solvent, and the fluorinated solvent includes at least one of the compound represented by formula (I), the compound represented by formula (II), the compound represented by formula (III) or the compound represented by formula (IV):
[0007] wherein R1 to R2 are each independently selected from fluorine-substituted or unsubstituted C1 to C5 alkyl, fluorine-substituted or unsubstituted C2 to C5 alkenyl, fluorine-substituted or unsubstituted C2 to C5 alkynyl, sulfonic acid-substituted C2 to C5 alkyl, or cyano-substituted C2 to C5 alkyl; R3 to R8 are each independently selected from H, F, fluorine-substituted or unsubstituted C1 to C5 alkyl, fluorine-substituted or unsubstituted C2 to C5 alkenyl, fluorine-substituted or unsubstituted C2 to C5 alkynyl, sulfonic acid-substituted C2 to C5 alkyl, or cyano-substituted C2 to C5 alkyl; at least one of R1 to R2 contains at least one fluorine atom, at least one of R3 to R4 contains at least one fluorine atom, at least one of R5 to R6 contains at least one fluorine atom, and at least one of R7 to R8 contains at least one fluorine atom. Based on the mass of the electrolyte, the mass percentage of the fluorinated solvent is B%, 41.7≤B≤83.2, preferably 45.9≤B≤75; 0.1≤100A / B≤6, for example, the value of B can be 41.7, 43, 45, 45.9, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 83.2 or a range consisting of any two values therein, and the value of 100A / B can be 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5, 5.5, 6 or a range consisting of any two values therein.
[0008] The secondary battery provided by the present application comprises a positive electrode active material including cobalt and magnesium elements, and the mass percentage of the magnesium element is regulated within the above-mentioned range, which can improve the stability of the positive electrode active material, thereby improving the high-temperature storage performance and high-temperature cycle performance of the secondary battery. At the same time, the electrolyte comprises a fluorinated solvent and its mass percentage B% is regulated within the above-mentioned range. On the one hand, since a higher content of the fluorinated solvent can form a higher content of fluorine-containing interface protective film in situ on the surface of the positive electrode plate during the charge and discharge cycle, and this process continues during the charge and discharge cycle, it can continuously improve the dissolution problem of the transition metal in the positive electrode material layer, reduce the release of oxygen in the positive electrode active material, and improve the oxidative decomposition and gas production of the electrolyte at high temperature, thereby improving the high-temperature storage performance and high-temperature cycle performance of the secondary battery. On the other hand, since a higher content of fluorinated solvent has the function of continuously repairing the interface, it can not only improve the interfacial stability between the positive electrode material layer and the electrolyte, but also reduce the content of interface repair additives (such as vinylene carbonate, 1,3-propane sultone or acrylonitrile) in the electrolyte, so that the initial impedance of the above interface is smaller, thereby further improving the high temperature cycle performance and high temperature cycle performance of the secondary battery. When the value of A is too small, for example, less than 0.1, it cannot play a role in improving the stability of the positive electrode active material, which is not conducive to improving the high temperature storage performance and high temperature cycle performance of the secondary battery; when the value of A is too large, for example, greater than 5, the impedance of the positive electrode sheet will be too large, reducing the gram capacity of the positive electrode active material, thereby reducing the energy density of the secondary battery, and is not conducive to improving its high temperature cycle performance. When the value of B is too small, for example, less than 41.7, the role of the fluorinated solvent cannot be brought into play, which is not conducive to improving the problem of transition metal dissolution in the positive electrode material layer, and is not conducive to improving the high temperature storage performance and high temperature cycle performance of the secondary battery; when the value of B is too large, for example, greater than 83.2, although the conductivity can be lowered, the above-mentioned in-situ formed interface protective film is too thick, which will hinder the transmission of ions (such as lithium ions), and thus is not conducive to improving the high temperature cycle performance of the secondary battery. When the value of 100A / B is too small, for example, less than 0.1, it is not conducive to the synergistic effect between the positive electrode sheet and the fluorinated solvent, and it is impossible to improve the stability of the positive electrode active material and the oxidative decomposition and gas production of the electrolyte at high temperature, thereby affecting the high temperature storage performance and high temperature cycle performance of the secondary battery. When the value of 100A / B is too large, for example greater than 6, the impedance of the positive electrode plate will be too large, hindering the transmission of ions. The synergistic effect between the positive electrode plate and the fluorinated solvent cannot be exerted, thereby failing to improve the high-temperature storage performance and high-temperature cycle performance of the secondary battery. Therefore, the positive electrode active material includes cobalt and magnesium elements, the electrolyte includes a fluorinated solvent, and the values of A, B, and 100A / B are regulated within the above range. A synergistic effect is generated between the positive electrode plate and the electrolyte, which can make the secondary battery have high energy density while having good high-temperature storage performance and high-temperature cycle performance, thereby improving the comprehensive performance of the secondary battery.In this application, "high temperature" refers to a temperature greater than or equal to 35°C.
[0009] In one embodiment of the present application, based on the mass of the positive electrode material layer, the mass percentage of the cobalt element is C%, 51.1≤C≤58.8. For example, the value of C can be 51.1, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 58.8 or a range consisting of any two values therein. By regulating the value of C within the above range, the obtained positive electrode active material has a higher gram capacity, which is beneficial to improving the energy density of the secondary battery. In addition, it can also make the structure of the positive electrode active material more stable, reduce the release of oxygen in the positive electrode active material, improve the oxidative decomposition and gas production of the electrolyte at high temperature, and be more conducive to the synergistic effect between the positive electrode sheet and the electrolyte, thereby improving the high temperature storage performance and high temperature cycle performance of the secondary battery, so that the secondary battery has high energy density while having good high temperature storage performance and high temperature cycle performance, thereby improving the comprehensive performance of the secondary battery.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0040] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of this application more clearly understood, the following examples are given to further describe this application in detail. Obviously, the described examples are only some examples of this application, rather than all examples. All other examples obtained by those skilled in the art based on this application are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0041] It should be noted that, in the specific embodiments of the present application, lithium-ion batteries are used as an example of secondary batteries to explain the present application, but the secondary batteries of the present application are not limited to lithium-ion batteries.
[0042] Example
[0043] The following examples and comparative examples are provided to more specifically illustrate the embodiments of the present invention. Various tests and evaluations were performed according to the following methods. In addition, unless otherwise specified, "parts" and "%" are based on mass.
[0044] Test methods and equipment:
[0045] Test of mass percentage of magnesium and cobalt:
[0046] The lithium-ion battery was discharged to 3V at 0.2C and disassembled to obtain the positive electrode sheet. The positive electrode material layer of the positive electrode sheet after washing with DMC (dimethyl carbonate) was scraped off with a scraper to obtain the positive electrode material layer powder. 0.4g of the above powder was dissolved in 12mL of a mixed solvent, which was prepared by mixing aqua regia and hydrofluoric acid (HF) in a volume ratio of 5:1. The solution was then diluted to 100mL and the content of metal elements such as Co and Mg in the solution was tested using an inductively coupled plasma spectrometer (ICP). The mass percentage of magnesium element A% and the mass percentage of cobalt element C% based on the mass of the positive electrode material layer were calculated. Among them, aqua regia was prepared by mixing concentrated nitric acid and concentrated hydrochloric acid in a volume ratio of 1:1.
[0047] Test of component content in electrolyte:
[0048] The lithium-ion battery was discharged to 3V at 0.2C and disassembled. The electrolyte was collected and the removed positive electrode, negative electrode, and separator were centrifuged. The liquid obtained after centrifugation was mixed with the electrolyte to obtain a liquid sample. The liquid sample was subjected to ion chromatography (IC) testing to measure the lithium salt content in the electrolyte. The liquid sample was tested using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) to measure the mass ratio of each component in the electrolyte. The mass percentage of each component in the electrolyte was calculated based on the measured lithium salt content.
[0049] High temperature storage performance test:
[0050] The high-temperature storage performance of lithium-ion batteries is evaluated by the thickness expansion rate after storage at 85°C. The lower the thickness expansion rate, the better the high-temperature storage performance, and the higher the thickness expansion rate, the worse the high-temperature storage performance. At 25°C, the lithium-ion battery is allowed to stand for 5 minutes, charged at a constant current of 0.7C to 3.85V to reach a half-charged state, and the thickness of the lithium-ion battery is measured and recorded as H1. The lithium-ion battery is then charged at a constant current of 0.7C to 4.5V, and then charged at a constant voltage to a current of 0.05C, and allowed to stand for 10 minutes to reach a fully charged state. The fully charged lithium-ion battery is allowed to stand in an 85°C constant temperature box for 8 hours. After the lithium-ion battery is taken out, the thickness after storage is measured at 25°C and recorded as H2. The thickness expansion rate of the lithium-ion battery after high-temperature storage is calculated by the following formula: Thickness expansion rate = (H2 / H1-1) × 100%.
[0051] High temperature cycle performance test:
[0052] The high temperature cycle performance of lithium-ion batteries is evaluated by the capacity retention rate at 45°C. The higher the capacity retention rate, the better the high temperature cycle performance, and the lower the capacity retention rate, the worse the high temperature cycle performance. Under 45°C conditions, the lithium-ion battery is charged to 4.52V at a constant current of 0.7C, then charged to a current of 0.05C at a constant voltage of 4.5V, and then discharged to 3.0V at a constant current of 1C. This is a charge and discharge cycle, which is the first cycle. The discharge capacity of the first cycle of the lithium-ion battery is recorded as C1. The lithium-ion battery is charged and discharged 500 times according to the above method, and the discharge capacity of the 500th cycle is recorded as C1. 500 45℃ capacity retention rate = C 500 / C1×100%.
