Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of lithium-ion battery technology, and in particular to a high-energy-density 21650 all-tab cylindrical lithium-ion battery and its power supply device. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of new energy vehicles and high-power energy storage equipment, the market has placed higher demands on the energy density and safety performance of lithium-ion batteries. All-tab cylindrical lithium-ion batteries, by using the entire edge of the electrode as a conductive current collector, significantly shorten the electron transport path, enabling the battery to exhibit excellent electrical performance under high-rate charge and discharge. The all-tab structure fundamentally changes the thermodynamic characteristics of cylindrical batteries. Traditional cylindrical batteries primarily conduct heat radially to the sidewalls of the casing, while the efficient current collector network of all-tab batteries allows heat to converge axially at an extremely high speed to the battery end cap area. For batteries with specific dimensions (such as the short-height 21650 type), the axial heat conduction distance is short and the end-face heat dissipation load is extremely high. Relying solely on the geometric constraints of the external dimensions cannot accurately match the battery's electrochemical heat generation and physical heat dissipation capabilities under actual operating conditions.

[0003] Related technologies, such as Chinese patent application CN122178073A, disclose a cylindrical battery that establishes a specific relationship by combining parameters such as the thickness of the thinned region, battery volume, the ratio of the adapter area to the cell end face area, and battery capacity. However, the combined model of the above technologies is mainly based on the steady-state logic of gas pressure volume buffer and mechanical pressure relief valve opening. For 21650 short-height full-tab cylindrical batteries, due to their short height dimension, the axial thermal resistance decreases by an order of magnitude, making it impossible to guarantee the safety of this type of battery by relying solely on local component parameters such as the static adapter area ratio.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need in this field for a design scheme suitable for short-height cylindrical lithium-ion batteries, which can achieve a balance between high energy density, high power output and thermal safety of short-height all-tab cylindrical batteries. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This application specifically provides a cylindrical lithium-ion battery, and more particularly a high-energy-density 21650 all-tab cylindrical lithium-ion battery, by converting the short and tall dimensions of the 21650 type into a volume V. cell and external surface area A cell And the discharge capacity C when discharged at a rate of 0.2C. 0.2 The parameters K are formed by combining the two systems. v and K s This avoids describing short-height cells solely using total height or capacity, while also limiting K... v and K sWithin a suitable range, the capacity load per unit volume and the capacity load per unit surface area are controlled together, taking into account both capacity retention and heat dissipation area constraints, so that the 21650 short-height battery can still maintain its capacity, rate discharge and thermal safety performance even when the height is reduced.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this application adopts the following technical solution: The first aspect of this application provides a high-energy-density 21650 all-tab cylindrical lithium-ion battery, comprising a cylindrical shell, a core housed within the cylindrical shell, and an electrolyte. The core is formed by winding a positive electrode sheet, a separator, and a negative electrode sheet. The ends of the positive and negative electrode sheets are flattened to form a positive all-tab end face and a negative all-tab end face, respectively. The total height of the cylindrical shell is defined as H1, ranging from 63.5 to 66.5 mm. The outer diameter of the cylindrical shell is defined as D, ranging from 20.6 to 21.5 mm. The discharge capacity C of the cylindrical lithium-ion battery under 25°C and 0.2C discharge conditions is... 0.2 The cylindrical lithium-ion battery has a capacity of 4900~5200mAh and meets the following requirements: K v =C 0.2 / V cell 212~236 mAh / cm 3 , where V cell The external volume (cm) of the cylindrical shell is represented. 3 V cell =π×(D / 2)^2×H1 / 1000; K s =C 0.2 / A cell 96~106 mAh / cm 2 , where A cell The outer surface area (cm²) of the cylindrical shell is represented by the following value. 2 A cell =[π×D×H1+2π×(D / 2)^2] / 100.

[0007] In some possible embodiments, the high-energy-density 21650 full-tab cylindrical lithium-ion battery further includes a positive current collector and a negative current collector welded to both ends of the core along its axial direction. The positive current collector is welded to the positive full-tab end face, and the negative current collector is welded to the negative full-tab end face. The effective current-carrying cross-sectional area of ​​the positive current collector is 38~48 mm². 2 The equivalent contact area between the negative electrode current collector and the cylindrical shell is 25~32mm. 2 .

[0008] In one possible implementation, under conditions of constant current discharge at 25°C and 40A to 2.5V or safe cutoff at 80°C, the highest temperature T on the large surface of the sidewall of the cylindrical casing of the high-energy-density 21650 all-tab cylindrical lithium-ion battery is [not specified]. max ≤67℃, and the rate discharge temperature rise ΔT≤42℃.

[0009] In one possible implementation, the pulsed DC internal resistance (DCR) of the high energy density 21650 omni-tab cylindrical lithium-ion battery at 25°C and 50% SOC is... 50 ≤8.8mΩ.

[0010] In one possible implementation, the high-energy-density 21650 all-tab cylindrical lithium-ion battery maintains a capacity retention rate R0 at 40A, based on a discharge capacity of 1A at 25°C. C40 >97.0%.

[0011] In one possible implementation, the total height H1 of the cylindrical shell ranges from 64.7 to 65.5 mm, the outer diameter D ranges from 20.8 to 21.2 mm, and the ratio of H1 to D ranges from 3.06 to 3.14.

[0012] In one possible implementation, the external volume V of the cylindrical shell cell The range is 21.8~23.3cm 3 The outer surface area A of the cylindrical shell cell The range is 48.8~51.0 cm. 2 .

[0013] In one possible implementation, K v The range is 218~228 mAh / cm 3 K s 98~103 mAh / cm 2 .

[0014] In one possible implementation, the high-energy-density 21650 all-tab cylindrical lithium-ion battery, under constant current discharge conditions of 25°C and 40A, satisfies the following condition: temperature rise capacity load ratio 0 < ΔT / K. v ≤0.190℃·cm³ / mAh, and 0<T max / K s ≤0.68 ℃·cm² / mAh.

[0015] In one possible implementation, the pulsed DC internal resistance (DCR) of the high energy density 21650 omni-tab cylindrical lithium-ion battery at 25°C and 50% SOC is... 50 The range is 6.5~8.2 mΩ.

[0016] In one possible implementation, the 40A cycle energy retention rate R is based on a discharge capacity of 1A at 25°C. CE40 ≥91.2%.

[0017] A second aspect of this application provides an electrical device including the aforementioned high-energy-density 21650 all-tab cylindrical lithium-ion battery.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, this application has the following advantages: The first aspect of this application provides a high-energy-density 21650 all-tab cylindrical lithium-ion battery, which converts the external dimensions of a short-height cylindrical lithium-ion battery that meets specific total height and outer diameter of the casing into an external volume V. cell and external surface area A cell And the discharge capacity C when discharged at a rate of 0.2C. 0.2 The parameters K are formed by combining the two. v and K s This avoids describing short-height cells solely using total height or capacity, while also limiting K... v and K s Within a suitable range, both the unit volume capacity load and the unit external surface area capacity load are controlled, balancing capacity preservation and heat dissipation area constraints; furthermore, K... v and K s With T max ΔT, DCR 50 and R C40 By combining different technologies, we can avoid the problem of excessive temperature rise during 40A rate discharge caused by pursuing only 5Ah capacity, and ensure that the short-height battery can still maintain capacity, rate discharge and thermal safety performance under the condition of reduced height.

[0019] The second aspect of this application provides an electrical device including the aforementioned high-energy-density 21650 all-tab cylindrical lithium-ion battery, which can achieve longer battery life and faster charging capability with the same volume or weight. At the same time, due to the low internal resistance and low heat generation of the battery, the thermal management load is reduced and the operational stability and safety under high load are improved. Detailed Implementation

[0020] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described are merely used to explain this application and are not intended to limit this application.

[0021] In the description of the embodiments of this application, it should be noted that all scopes disclosed in this application are to be understood to encompass any and all subscopes included therein. For example, the stated scope "100~120" should be considered to include any and all subscopes that begin with a minimum value of 100 or greater and end with a maximum value of 120 or less, such as 100 to 110, or 110 to 120, or 105 to 115. Furthermore, all scopes disclosed in this application are also considered to include the endpoints of the scope, unless otherwise expressly stated. For example, the scope "between 110 and 120" or "110 to 120" or "110-120" should generally be considered to include the endpoints 110 and 120.

[0022] This application addresses a specific form factor, such as the short-height 21650 cylindrical lithium-ion battery. Due to its short axial thermal conduction distance and high end-face heat dissipation load, simply relying on the geometric constraints of its form factor cannot accurately match the battery's electrochemical heat generation and physical heat dissipation capabilities under actual operating conditions. Existing related technologies are not specifically designed for this short-height battery and have certain limitations. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a design scheme for this specific short-height cylindrical lithium-ion battery that can ensure its safety while achieving a balance between high energy density, high power output, and thermal safety. In other words, it should enable the 21650 short-height battery to maintain its capacity, rate discharge capability, and thermal safety performance even with a reduced height. Based on this, the technical solution adopted in this application is to convert the 21650 short-height form factor into a volume V. cell and external surface area A cell And the discharge capacity C when discharged at a rate of 0.2C. 0.2 The parameters K are formed by combining the two. v and K s This avoids describing short-height cells solely using total height or capacity, while also limiting K... v and K s Within a suitable range, both the unit volume capacity load and the unit external surface area capacity load are controlled, balancing capacity preservation and heat dissipation area constraints; furthermore, K... v and K s With T max ΔT, DCR 50 and R C40 The design avoids excessive temperature rise during 40A rate discharge due to solely pursuing 5Ah capacity, ensuring that the 21650 short-height battery can maintain capacity, rate discharge, and thermal safety performance even under reduced height conditions.

[0023] To achieve the above objectives, this application adopts the following technical solution: This application provides a high-energy-density 21650 all-tab cylindrical lithium-ion battery, comprising a cylindrical shell, a core housed within the cylindrical shell, and an electrolyte. The core is formed by winding a positive electrode, a separator, and a negative electrode. The ends of the positive and negative electrode are flattened to form a positive all-tab end face and a negative all-tab end face, respectively. The total height of the cylindrical shell is defined as H1, ranging from 63.5 to 66.5 mm. The outer diameter of the cylindrical shell is defined as D, ranging from 20.6 to 21.5 mm. The discharge capacity C of the cylindrical lithium-ion battery under 25°C and 0.2C discharge conditions is... 0.2 The cylindrical lithium-ion battery has a capacity of 4900~5200mAh and meets the following requirements: K v =C 0.2 / V cell 212~236 mAh / cm 3 , where V cell The external volume (cm) of the cylindrical shell is represented. 3 V cell =π×(D / 2)^2×H1 / 1000; K s =C 0.2 / A cell 96~106 mAh / cm 2 , where A cell The outer surface area (cm²) of the cylindrical shell is represented by the following value. 2 A cell =[π×D×H1+2π×(D / 2)^2] / 100.

[0024] It should be noted that this application limits the total height of the cylindrical lithium-ion battery casing to 63.5~66.5mm and the outer diameter to 20.6~21.5mm. For example, the total height is limited to any one or any two of the following values: 63.5mm, 64.0mm, 64.5mm, 65.0mm, 65.5mm, 66.0mm, and 66.5mm, and the outer diameter is limited to any one or any two of the following values: 20.6mm, 20.7mm, 20.8mm, 20.9mm, 21.0mm, 21.1mm, 21.2mm, 21.3mm, 21.4mm, and 21.5mm. For example, the 21650 type short-height cylindrical lithium-ion battery is different from conventional cylindrical batteries, and the technical solution is designed for short-height cylindrical cells with a specific diameter-to-height ratio. At the same time, the above-mentioned limited size range can match the internal volume of the casing with the core design, eliminate dimensional deviations in group assembly, and ensure module installation gap and positioning welding accuracy.

[0025] In addition, by converting the external dimensions of this type of cylindrical lithium-ion battery to V celland A cell and with discharge capacity C 0.2 Jointly establish parameter K v and K s K v and K s The physical definitions are equivalent to capacity per unit volume and capacity per unit external surface area, respectively, avoiding the use of only total height or capacity to describe short-height cells; secondly, by simultaneously limiting K... v and K s Within a suitable range, both the volumetric capacity load and the surface area capacity load are controlled, balancing capacity retention and heat dissipation area constraints. This allows short-height batteries to maintain a capacity of 4.9–5.2 Ah even with reduced height. While keeping the cylindrical shell dimensions, active material system, electrode width, and compaction density constant, the total amount of active material in the core can be varied by adjusting the coating amount per unit area of ​​the positive electrode active material and simultaneously adjusting the coating amount per unit area of ​​the negative electrode active material, thereby obtaining different C values. 0.2 During the adjustment process, the ratio of negative electrode capacity to positive electrode capacity, N / P, should be controlled between 1.03 and 1.10, for example, 1.06, to avoid excessive C. 0.2 As an independent variable detached from electrode structure and preparation process.

[0026] In some embodiments, the cylindrical lithium-ion battery further includes a positive current collector and a negative current collector welded to both ends of the winding core, wherein the positive current collector is welded to the positive electrode tab end face, and the negative current collector is welded to the negative electrode tab end face, and the effective current-carrying cross-sectional area of ​​the positive current collector is 38~48mm². 2 The preferred size is 40~46mm. 2 The equivalent contact area between the negative current collector and the casing is 25~32mm. 2 The preferred size is 27~30mm. 2 When the effective current-carrying cross-sectional area or equivalent contact area is too small, the local current density and contact resistance increase, which can easily lead to increased DCR and 40A discharge temperature rise; when the area is too large, it will increase the mass of the current collector and occupy the space at the end of the core.

[0027] In some embodiments, the cylindrical lithium-ion battery satisfies the condition that, under constant current discharge at 25°C and 40A to 2.5V or safe cutoff at 80°C, the highest temperature T on the large surface of the sidewall of the cylindrical casing is [not specified]. max ≤67℃, for example, it can be 63~67℃, and the rate discharge temperature rise ΔT≤42℃, for example, it can be 38~42℃.

[0028] It is understandable that the temperature rise during rate discharge is ΔT = T. max - T0, where T0 is the cell sidewall temperature before the start of rate discharge, T maxT is the highest surface temperature during the high-rate discharge process. max The readings are obtained simultaneously using a patch thermocouple and a thermal imager. The patch thermocouple is positioned at least at 1 / 2 the axial height of the cylindrical shell, 10 mm from the positive end, and 10 mm from the negative end. The higher of the highest value of the patch thermocouple and the highest value of the thermal imager's sidewall is taken as T. max Unless otherwise stated, the term "large surface" in this application refers to the circumferential sidewall of the cylindrical casing, as the circumferential sidewall has the largest area; therefore, it is called the large surface or sidewall large surface, i.e., the side surface or circumferential surface of the cylindrical casing. During high-rate discharge, cylindrical lithium-ion batteries generate Joule heat due to ohmic and polarization internal resistance, and the highest temperature T on the large surface of the casing sidewall is... max The discharge temperature rise ΔT is a direct thermal indicator characterizing the cell's heat generation level, internal resistance control effect, and heat dissipation capacity. By limiting T... max The requirement that ΔT be within a suitable range is to constrain the heat generated during discharge of short-height cylindrical batteries within an acceptable thermal safety range, avoiding cycle life degradation and decreased thermal stability due to excessive temperature rise. In this application, by quantitatively defining the heat generation characteristics and thermal safety boundaries of short-height cylindrical lithium-ion batteries, it is demonstrated that through the synergistic optimization of cell structure parameters and core design, this application effectively controls the temperature rise during high-current discharge while achieving the required capacity and rate performance, thus balancing high-rate output capability and safety performance.

[0029] In some embodiments, the cylindrical lithium-ion battery satisfies the pulsed DC internal resistance (DCR) at 25°C and 50% SOC. 50 ≤8.8mΩ.

[0030] It should be noted that the pulsed DC internal resistance directly determines the ohmic voltage drop and Joule heat generation during high-current charging and discharging. If the DCR... 50 Excessive heat will cause a severe voltage drop at the battery cell's terminals during high-rate discharge, resulting in insufficient power output and a significant increase in ohmic temperature rise ΔT, raising the maximum temperature T on the casing sidewall. max Exceeding the aforementioned suitable range accelerates electrolyte decomposition and SEI membrane degradation, and may even induce thermal runaway risks. Therefore, this application limits DCR... 50 If the resistance is below the threshold mentioned above, the DC internal resistance of the short-height cylindrical lithium-ion battery can be constrained to within the maximum allowable value, ensuring that it has sufficient load voltage retention capability and controlled heat generation level in high-rate applications.

[0031] Furthermore, the pulsed DC internal resistance (DCR) of the cylindrical lithium-ion battery at 25°C and 50% SOC is... 50The range is 6.5 to 8.2 mΩ, for example, it can be any value or any two values ​​among 6.5mΩ, 6.6mΩ, 6.7mΩ, 6.8mΩ, 6.9mΩ, 7.0mΩ, 7.1mΩ, 7.2mΩ, 7.3mΩ, 7.4mΩ, 7.5mΩ, 7.6mΩ, 7.7mΩ, 7.8mΩ, 7.9mΩ, 8.0mΩ, 8.1mΩ and 8.2mΩ.

[0032] In some embodiments, the cylindrical lithium-ion battery maintains a capacity retention rate R at 40A based on a discharge capacity of 1A at 25°C. C40 >97.0%, for example, it can be 97.2~99.0%.

[0033] It should be noted that R C40 It is a core quantitative indicator characterizing the rate performance and polarization control level of short- and high-density cylindrical lithium-ion batteries. During high-rate discharge, the cell capacity utilization rate is mainly affected by the IR voltage drop caused by the ohmic internal resistance and electrode polarization. If the internal resistance is too high or the lithium-ion diffusion kinetics are insufficient, the terminal voltage will drop to the cutoff voltage in a short time, resulting in the actual discharged capacity being significantly lower than the rated capacity. The IR value is calculated based on the low-rate (1A) standard capacity. C40 This eliminates the interference from absolute capacity differences between different cells, directly reflecting the capacity utilization and rate capability of short-height cylindrical lithium-ion batteries under higher rate conditions. If R C40 A low DCR indicates that the cell's effective usable capacity under high current load is severely insufficient, the terminal voltage drops rapidly, and it cannot meet the continuous power requirements of high-rate electrical devices. This is usually accompanied by a high DCR. 50 With a larger rate-dependent temperature rise ΔT. Therefore, by limiting R... C40 If the threshold is greater than the above threshold, the rate discharge capacity utilization of short-height cylindrical lithium-ion batteries can be constrained to an acceptable minimum level, ensuring that they can provide sufficient power and release sufficient effective capacity under high rate load.

[0034] Furthermore, R C40 The aforementioned pulsed DC internal resistance DCR 50 And the thermal performance parameters, including the highest temperature T on the large surface of the sidewall of the cylindrical shell. max The temperature rise ΔT during high-rate discharge is within a reasonable range, which supports each other and provides a quantifiable basis for judging whether the battery under test simultaneously meets the requirements of high-rate capacity output, low internal resistance and thermal safety.

[0035] In some possible embodiments, the total height H1 of the cylindrical shell ranges from 64.7 to 65.5 mm, the outer diameter D ranges from 20.8 to 21.2 mm, and the ratio of H1 to D ranges from 3.06 to 3.14.

[0036] In some possible embodiments, the external volume V of the cylindrical shell cell The range is 21.8~23.3cm 3 The outer surface area A of the cylindrical shell cell The range is 48.8~51.0 cm. 2 .

[0037] In some possible embodiments, K v The range is 218~228 mAh / cm 3 K s 98~103 mAh / cm 2 .

[0038] In one possible implementation, the high-energy-density 21650 all-tab cylindrical lithium-ion battery, under constant current discharge conditions of 25°C and 40A, satisfies the following condition: temperature rise capacity load ratio 0 < ΔT / K. v ≤0.190℃·cm³ / mAh, and 0<T max / K s ≤0.68 ℃·cm² / mAh.

[0039] It should be noted that these two sets of ratio limits, by respectively relating the battery volume capacity, external surface area capacity, and the maximum discharge temperature rise and overall temperature rise, constrain the matching relationship between heat generation and heat dissipation during constant current discharge of the battery from two dimensions: volume and heat dissipation surface area. This can not only avoid the risk of local overheating and thermal runaway caused by excessive heat generation per unit capacity, but also ensure that the heat dissipation surface area of ​​the battery can dissipate the generated heat in time, balance the internal temperature of the battery, suppress excessive temperature difference, and stabilize the thermal safety and cycle life under high current discharge at 25℃.

[0040] In some embodiments, the cylindrical lithium-ion battery achieves a 40A cycle energy retention rate R based on a discharge capacity of 1A at 25°C. CE40 ≥91.2%, for example, it can be 91.2~93.0%.

[0041] Understandably, R CE40 It is a comprehensive indicator characterizing the actual high-rate performance of short- and tall cylindrical lithium-ion batteries, along with capacity retention rate R. C40 Unlike other factors, the capacity retention rate reflects both the capacity utilization rate and the average discharge voltage level during high-rate discharge. If the DC internal resistance (DCR) is... 50 Excessive voltage or severe polarization causes a significant drop in terminal voltage at high rates. Even if a similar proportion of capacity is discharged, the reduced average discharge voltage will lead to a substantial decrease in actual output energy. Using a low-rate standard energy E... 1A Calculate R based on the baseline CE40This can eliminate the absolute energy difference between cells and directly quantify the reduction in actual usable output power of short-height cylindrical lithium-ion batteries under 40A high-rate conditions relative to standard conditions. If R CE40 An excessively low R value indicates that the battery cell experiences severe voltage sag and high ohmic losses under a 40A load, resulting in a significant shortage of energy available for the external load and substandard device range. This can be addressed by limiting R... CE40 If the threshold is greater than the above threshold, the high-rate energy output capability of short-height cylindrical lithium-ion batteries can be constrained to an acceptable minimum level, ensuring that they have both sufficient capacity utilization and controlled voltage retention capability under high current load.

[0042] In this application, the 21650 cylindrical lithium-ion battery refers to a cylindrical lithium-ion battery with a diameter of 21 mm and a height of 65 mm.

[0043] In some possible implementations, under constant current discharge conditions of 25°C and 40A, the cylindrical lithium-ion battery satisfies the temperature rise capacity load ratio ΔT / K. v Not higher than 0.190℃·cm 3 / mAh, and T max / K s Not higher than 0.68℃·cm 2 / mAh.

[0044] In some possible implementations, the cylindrical lithium-ion battery, after 100 cycles of charging at 25°C and 8A and discharging at 40A, exhibits a DCR (Discharge Rate of Change). 50 The growth rate shall not exceed 15%, and the increase in temperature rise ΔT of 40A discharge shall not exceed 5℃.

[0048] The positive current collector is typically aluminum foil.

When D is adjusted to 21.2mm, V... cell and A cell They increased to 22.98cm respectively. 3 and 50.42cm 2 K v Reduced to 217.6mAh / cm³ 3 K s Reduced to 99.2mAh / cm³ 2 T max The temperature dropped to 64.2℃. This indicates that the outer diameter directly changes the capacity carrying volume and the side wall heat dissipation area. A diameter of 20.8mm to 21.2mm can balance the compatibility of short and tall platforms and the heat dissipation of 40A.

[0115] As can be seen from the data of Examples 1, 6 and 7, C 0.2 When the capacity is adjusted from 5000mAh to 4900mAh, V cell and A cell Unchanged, K v Reduced to 217.3mAh / cm 3 K s Reduced to 98.2mAh / cm³ 2 DCR 50 It is 6.9mΩ, T max The temperature is 63.8℃, indicating a relatively large margin for temperature rise during rate scaling. 0.2 When adjusted to 5200mAh, K v Increased to 230.6mAh / cm³ 3 K s Increased to 104.3mAh / cm 2 DCR 50 Increased to 8.0mΩ, T max The temperature rose to 66.4℃, still meeting the protection window. This indicates that increasing capacity will simultaneously increase the reaction load per unit volume and the heat dissipation load per unit surface area; the capacity range of 4.9Ah to 5.2Ah requires consideration of K... v K s DCR and T max The two factors are mutually exclusive and cannot be judged solely based on capacity.

[0116] As can be seen from the data of Examples 1, 8, and 9, in H1, D, C 0.2 K v and K s When kept consistent, DCR 50 The R value decreased from 7.2 mΩ to 6.6 mΩ. C40 Rising to 98.8%, R CE40 Rising to 92.8%, T maxThe temperature dropped from 65.0℃ to 63.8℃, indicating that a decrease in the current collector path resistance directly reduces the ohmic heat generated during a 40A discharge. (DCR) 50 When R increases to 8.1mΩ, C40 It dropped to 97.5%, R CE40 Dropped to 91.5%, T max It rose to 66.3℃, but still did not exceed 67℃. Due to K... v and K s No change; this group of differences excludes the influence of capacity load variations and can separately explain the contribution of the collector path and DCR to the rate-driven temperature rise. This indicates that under the same capacity load, DCR... 50 It is a key parameter for the rate-dependent temperature rise, and its upper limit should not exceed 8.8mΩ.

[0117] By comparing the data from Example 10, Example 11, Comparative Example 7, and Comparative Example 8, it can be seen that Example 10 simultaneously uses H1=64.7mm, D=20.8mm, and C 0.2 =5100mAh, making K v Reaching 232.0 mAh / cm³ 3 K s Reaching 103.9mAh / cm³ 2 T max At 66.8℃, it can still pass through the protective T max Threshold. Example 11 uses H1=65.5mm, D=21.2mm and C 0.2 =4950mAh, K v and K s The values ​​decreased to 214.1 mAh / cm³. 3 and 97.7mAh / cm 2 T max The temperature was 63.5℃. The K value for Comparative Example 7 was... v and K s The capacity was increased to 243.8 mAh / cm³. 3 and 108.1mAh / cm 2 K in comparison ratio 8 v and K s Then it dropped to 200.0 mAh / cm³. 3 and 92.6mAh / cm 2 All of them deviated from the window. Although Comparative Example 8 met the thermal performance requirements, its capacity was lower than 4900mAh, which deviated from the high energy density design target, proving that the window of this application is a balance range between capacity and thermal safety, rather than the lower the better.

[0118] By comparing the data from Example 7, Comparative Example 3, and Comparative Example 6, it can be seen that C 0.2 When it reaches 5200mAh, K v 230.6mAh / cm3 K s 104.3mAh / cm 2 DCR 50 It is 8.0mΩ, T max At 66.4℃, it still meets the combined requirements for capacity and thermal safety. When C 0.2 When it reaches 5300mAh, K v and K s The capacity was increased to 235.1 mAh / cm³. 3 and 106.3mAh / cm 2 DCR 50 Rising to 8.9mΩ, T max Reaching 68.0℃; when high capacity is combined with a small outer diameter and a high DCR, T max The temperature further increased to 69.5℃. This indicates that the upper limit of capacity load must be constrained by both DCR and temperature rise; otherwise, the heat accumulation inside the short-height casing will exceed the heat dissipation capacity of the side walls.

[0119] By comparing the data from Example 1, Comparative Example 4, and Comparative Example 5, it can be seen that in H1, D, C 0.2 K v and K s If all are the same, only DCR 50 The R value increases from 7.2mΩ to 9.4mΩ, even with the same capacity load. C40 It still dropped to 96.8%, R CE40 Dropped to 90.9%, T max The temperature rose to 68.8℃, indicating that excessive internal resistance can independently compromise rate-controlled thermal safety. Comparative Example 5 shows the DCR... 50 The resistance is 8.6 mΩ, close to the claim threshold, but due to the thermal response conditions, ΔT reaches 43.2℃, which also does not fall within the protection window. This result indicates that a reasonable capacity load does not necessarily guarantee rate thermal safety; resistive heating and actual thermal response must simultaneously meet the threshold. This demonstrates that the present invention is not a simple stacking of size, capacity, or DCR, but rather requires that capacity load, internal resistance, and temperature rise simultaneously satisfy a combined relationship.

[0120] Although embodiments of this implementation have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this implementation, the scope of which is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
