Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of battery technology, specifically to a solid electrolyte membrane, its preparation method, and a battery. Background Technology
[0002] Solid-state lithium batteries are widely regarded as a crucial development direction for next-generation energy storage technology due to their combination of high safety and high energy density. As the core component of solid-state lithium batteries, the performance of the solid electrolyte membrane directly determines the battery's energy density, cycle life, and safety reliability. Polymer electrolyte membranes have gained widespread attention due to their excellent interfacial affinity, high solubility for different lithium salts, and good processing performance. However, the crystalline structure of polymers limits their ion transport efficiency, resulting in low room-temperature conductivity. Simultaneously, insufficient mechanical properties and interfacial stability, and the inability to suppress lithium dendrite growth, are also common problems that urgently need to be addressed.
[0003] To overcome the limitations of polymer electrolyte membranes, inorganic solid electrolytes are often dispersed within a polymer matrix to prepare organic-inorganic composite polymer electrolyte membranes. These composite membranes combine the flexibility and processability of polymer electrolyte membranes with the high ionic conductivity, wide electrochemical window, and mechanical rigidity of inorganic solid electrolytes. However, during the preparation process, the introduction of inorganic solid electrolytes into the polymer system via traditional physical mixing methods often results in uneven distribution. This hinders lithium-ion migration, affecting the ionic conductivity of the organic-inorganic composite polymer electrolyte membrane, and also leads to a decrease in its mechanical properties. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This invention proposes a solid electrolyte membrane, its preparation method, and a battery to solve or alleviate at least one of the aforementioned problems.
[0005] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows: This invention proposes a solid electrolyte membrane comprising a polymer matrix and a lithium salt and an organic-inorganic composite distributed in the polymer matrix; the organic-inorganic composite has a three-dimensional cross-linked network structure consisting of an aminated inorganic solid electrolyte, polyethylene glycol diglycidyl ether, and polyetheramine covalently cross-linked.
[0006] Preferably, the mass ratio of the polymer matrix to the lithium salt is 1~3:0.5~1.
[0007] Preferably, the mass ratio of the polymer matrix to the aminated inorganic solid electrolyte, polyethylene glycol diglycidyl ether, and polyetheramine is 1~4:1~1.5:0.5~1:1.5~2.
[0008] Preferably, the polymer matrix includes at least one of polyethylene oxide, polyvinylidene fluoride, poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene), polyacrylonitrile, and polymethyl methacrylate.
[0009] Preferably, the lithium salt includes at least one of lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide, lithium bis(fluoromethanesulfonyl)imide, lithium hexafluorophosphate, lithium tetrafluoroborate, and lithium difluorooxalate borate.
[0010] Preferably, the aminated inorganic solid electrolyte is an inorganic solid electrolyte with aminosilane grafted onto its surface.
[0011] Preferably, the mass ratio of inorganic solid electrolyte to aminosilane is 10~20:0.5~1.
[0012] Preferably, the aminosilane includes at least one of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, 3-aminopropylmethoxysilane, and 3-aminopropylmethyldiethoxysilane.
[0013] Preferably, the inorganic solid electrolyte includes at least one of tantalum-doped lithium lanthanum zirconium oxide, lithium lanthanum zirconium oxide, lithium titanium aluminum phosphate, and lithium germanium aluminum phosphate, and the D50 particle size of the inorganic solid electrolyte is 100~1000nm.
[0014] The present invention also proposes a method for preparing the aforementioned solid electrolyte membrane, comprising: Provides polymer matrices, lithium salts, aminated inorganic solid electrolytes, polyethylene glycol diglycidyl ether, and polyetheramines; The polymer matrix and lithium salt are added to a solvent and mixed to obtain a polymer solution; The aminated inorganic solid electrolyte, polyethylene glycol diglycidyl ether, and polyetheramine are added to the polymer solution and mixed to obtain a slurry. The slurry is formed into a film to obtain the solid electrolyte membrane.
[0015] Preferably, the film-forming temperature is 80~120℃ and the time is 10~14h.
[0016] The present invention also proposes a battery comprising the solid electrolyte membrane described above or the solid electrolyte membrane prepared by the preparation method described above.
[0017] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: In this invention, an aminated inorganic solid electrolyte, polyethylene glycol diglycidyl ether, and polyetheramine are covalently crosslinked in situ through ring-opening, forming an organic-inorganic composite with a three-dimensional crosslinked network structure. This organic-inorganic composite uses chemical bonds to anchor the rigid inorganic solid electrolyte within a flexible polymer network structure, thereby enabling the solid electrolyte membrane to possess excellent ionic conductivity and mechanical properties through its overall synergistic effect.
[0018] Specifically, firstly, the amino groups on the surface of the aminated inorganic solid electrolyte react with the epoxy functional groups in polyethylene glycol diglycidyl ether to form covalent bonds. By constructing a stable inorganic-organic chemical bonding interface, the problems of easy aggregation and uneven distribution of inorganic solid electrolytes in polymer systems are solved, and the interfacial impedance between inorganic and organic phases is reduced, thus constructing a continuous ion transport path and improving ion transport efficiency. Secondly, the three-dimensional cross-linked network structure distributed in the polymer matrix can optimize ion transport channels and inhibit polymer crystallization, thereby improving ionic conductivity. Thirdly, the inorganic solid electrolyte, as a rigid framework particle, is tightly connected to the flexible three-dimensional cross-linked polymer network structure through chemical bonds, forming a rigid-flexible coupled composite structure. This not only improves the mechanical properties of the solid electrolyte membrane but also effectively inhibits lithium dendrite puncture and growth, improving the cycle stability and safety of the battery. Attached Figure Description
[0019] To more clearly illustrate the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention, the accompanying drawings used in the embodiments will be briefly introduced below. Obviously, the drawings described below are only some embodiments of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without creative effort.
[0020] Figure 1 Here is a SEM image of the solid electrolyte membrane prepared in Example 1; Figure 2 This is a SEM image of the solid electrolyte membrane prepared in Example 2. Detailed Implementation
[0021] The following specific examples illustrate the implementation of the present invention. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of the present invention from the content disclosed in this specification. The present invention can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments. Various details in this specification can also be modified or changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of the present invention. In the absence of conflict, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0022] Introducing inorganic solid electrolytes into polymer matrices can lead to the following problems: First, inorganic solid electrolytes tend to agglomerate, making it difficult to disperse uniformly within the polymer matrix, resulting in an uneven microstructure of the solid electrolyte membrane and obstructed lithium-ion transport pathways. Second, the poor interfacial compatibility and high interfacial impedance between the inorganic solid electrolyte and the polymer matrix hinder lithium-ion transport at the interface, reducing the overall ionic conductivity. Third, the limited mechanical properties of the polymer matrix itself, coupled with the introduction of inorganic solid electrolytes, disrupt the continuity and entanglement of polymer molecular chains, further degrading the mechanical properties of the solid electrolyte membrane. Fourth, the surface of inorganic solid electrolytes often contains impurities such as lithium carbonate or exhibits a certain degree of alkalinity, making it prone to side reactions with the polymer matrix or lithium salts, worsening interfacial chemical stability, and causing a continuous decline in ionic conductivity.
[0023] To address the aforementioned issues, the invention patent with publication number CN114927753A constructs a composite solid electrolyte membrane with a cellulose-based membrane substrate and a solid electrolyte layer on the substrate surface by directly dripping a composite solid electrolyte slurry onto the surface of a cellulose-based membrane. While this invention patent achieves the suppression of lithium dendrites in the composite solid electrolyte membrane and ensures good ionic conductivity, its mechanical properties are primarily determined by the cellulose-based membrane; the modification of the inorganic solid electrolyte does not substantially affect the mechanical properties of the composite solid electrolyte membrane.
[0024] The present invention constructs a rigid-flexible coupled three-dimensional cross-linked network structure in a polymer matrix. This network structure not only improves the mechanical properties of the solid electrolyte membrane and inhibits the puncture and growth of lithium dendrites, but also gives the solid electrolyte membrane good ionic conductivity.
[0025] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the present invention clearer, the following description will be provided through embodiments.
[0026] A specific embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention provides a solid electrolyte membrane comprising a polymer matrix and a lithium salt and an organic-inorganic composite distributed in the polymer matrix.
[0027] The polymer matrix, as a continuous phase substrate, provides film-forming properties and flexibility, supporting and dispersing lithium salts and organic-inorganic complexes. The polymer matrix material can be selected from any polymer known in the art, for example, including but not limited to at least one of polyethylene oxide (PEO), polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene) (PVDF-HFP), polyacrylonitrile (PAN), and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), preferably polyvinylidene fluoride.
[0028] Lithium salts can dissociate into freely moving lithium ions, which are the source of charge carriers for ion conduction. The lithium salt can be selected from any known in the art, for example, including but not limited to at least one of lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI), lithium bis(fluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiFSI), lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF6), lithium tetrafluoroborate (LiBF4), and lithium difluorooxalate borate (LiDFOB), preferably lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide. Preferably, the mass ratio of polymer matrix to lithium salt is 1~3:0.5~1. Within this range, the mechanical properties and ionic conductivity of the solid electrolyte membrane can be better balanced.
[0029] The organic-inorganic composite possesses a rigid-flexible coupled three-dimensional cross-linked network structure. This three-dimensional cross-linked network structure is formed by in-situ ring-opening covalent cross-linking of amino groups on the surface of aminated inorganic solid electrolytes, amino groups in polyetheramines, and epoxy functional groups in polyethylene glycol diglycidyl ether. This not only solves the problems of easy aggregation and uneven distribution of inorganic solid electrolytes, but also simultaneously improves the ion transport performance and mechanical properties of solid electrolyte membranes. Specifically, the aminated inorganic solid electrolyte introduces highly reactive amino functional groups onto the surface of the inorganic solid electrolyte. This introduction is achieved by mixing and reacting the inorganic solid electrolyte with amino-containing organic molecules in a specific solvent, thereby anchoring the amino functional groups to the surface of the inorganic solid electrolyte. The inventors discovered that the performance of the solid electrolyte membrane varies significantly depending on the type of amino-containing organic molecule; when the amino-containing organic molecule is an aminosilane, the solid electrolyte membrane exhibits superior performance. The inorganic solid electrolyte can be selected from any known in the art, for example, including but not limited to at least one of tantalum-doped lithium lanthanum zirconium oxide (LLZTO), lithium lanthanum zirconium oxide (LLZO), lithium titanium aluminum phosphate (LATP), and lithium germanium aluminum phosphate (LAGP), preferably tantalum-doped lithium lanthanum zirconium oxide. The D50 particle size of the inorganic solid electrolyte can be 100~1000 nm, for example, including but not limited to any single value and a range between two values from 100 nm, 200 nm, 300 nm, 400 nm, 500 nm, 600 nm, 700 nm, 800 nm, 900 nm, and 1000 nm. The weight-average molecular weight of the polyetheramine can be 600~20000, for example, including but not limited to any single value and a range between two values from 600, 1000, 5000, 10000, 15000, and 20000. The weight-average molecular weight of polyethylene glycol diglycidyl ether can be 500-2000, for example, including but not limited to any value among 500, 1000, 1500, and 2000, and the range between any two values. Preferably, the mass ratio of the polymer matrix, the aminated inorganic solid electrolyte, the polyethylene glycol diglycidyl ether, and the polyetheramine is 1-4:1-1.5:0.5-1:1.5-2. Within this range, the organic-inorganic composite can be more uniformly distributed in the polymer matrix. Furthermore, this ratio range ensures, on the one hand, that the aminated inorganic solid electrolyte, the polyethylene glycol diglycidyl ether, and the polyetheramine are fully cross-linked to form a more stable three-dimensional cross-linked network structure, further enhancing the mechanical properties of the solid electrolyte membrane and further suppressing lithium dendrites; on the other hand, it allows for better control of the cross-linking density, optimizing ion transport channels, thereby further improving ionic conductivity. More preferably, the mass ratio of the polymer matrix, the aminated inorganic solid electrolyte, polyethylene glycol diglycidyl ether, and the polyetheramine is 2:1:0.8:1.5~2. Within this range, the mechanical properties of the solid electrolyte membrane are significantly improved.
[0030] In one embodiment of the present invention, the aminated inorganic solid electrolyte is an inorganic solid electrolyte with aminosilane grafted onto its surface.
[0031] In this invention, the aminosilane can be any known in the art, for example, including but not limited to at least one of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, 3-aminopropylmethoxysilane, and 3-aminopropylmethyldiethoxysilane, preferably 3-aminopropylmethoxysilane. The aminosilane not only has terminal amino groups but also hydrolyzable alkoxy groups. The alkoxy groups can condense with the hydroxyl groups on the surface of the inorganic solid electrolyte to form stable silicon-oxygen inorganic covalent bonds, while the terminal amino groups can tightly connect the inorganic solid electrolyte to the flexible polymer network structure through covalent bonds, thereby forming a rigid-flexible coupled three-dimensional cross-linked network structure. Through this double-terminal covalent bond interaction, the aminosilane forms a stable molecular bridge between the organic and inorganic phases, achieving a strong chemical bond. In contrast, the modification of other organic molecules containing amino groups, such as polydopamine modification formed by the self-polymerization of dopamine, is essentially a physical coating and is easily detached during use. Preferably, the mass ratio of inorganic solid electrolyte to aminosilane is 10~20:0.5~1. Within this range, the appropriate amount of aminosilane ensures sufficient grafting onto the surface of the inorganic solid electrolyte, which can further improve interfacial compatibility and inhibit aggregation; it also avoids the inorganic solid electrolyte from self-condensation and cross-linking due to excessive aminosilane dosage.
[0032] A second aspect of the present invention provides a method for preparing a solid electrolyte membrane, used to prepare the solid electrolyte membrane provided in the first aspect of the present invention, comprising the following steps: S1 provides a polymer matrix, lithium salt, aminated inorganic solid electrolyte, polyethylene glycol diglycidyl ether, and polyetheramine; S2. Add the polymer matrix and lithium salt to the solvent and mix to obtain a polymer solution; add the aminated inorganic solid electrolyte, polyethylene glycol diglycidyl ether and polyetheramine to the polymer solution and mix to obtain a slurry; S3. Form the slurry into a film to obtain a solid electrolyte membrane.
[0033] In step S1 of this invention, the preparation of the aminated inorganic solid electrolyte can be carried out by any method known in the art, preferably a wet chemical method. Taking the preparation of the aminated inorganic solid electrolyte using aminosilane as an example, the specific method is as follows: using water and ethanol in a volume ratio of 1~1.5:1~1.5 as a mixed solvent, aminosilane, inorganic solid electrolyte and mixed solvent are added to a reactor. Based on the total mass of aminosilane, inorganic solid electrolyte and mixed solvent, 1%~2% by mass of triethylamine is added. The reaction is carried out at 60~80℃ and stirred at a stirring speed of 300~600 r / min for 24~48 h. After the reaction is completed, the supernatant is removed by centrifugation, the solid is collected and washed with anhydrous ethanol to remove surface residues, and dried in a drying oven at 60~80℃ to obtain the aminated inorganic solid electrolyte.
[0034] In step S2 of this invention, when preparing the polymer solution, the solvent can be at least one selected from N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAC), N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP), dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and acetonitrile (ACN), preferably N,N-dimethylformamide. To accelerate the dissolution of the polymer matrix, the mixture can be stirred at 200-300 r / min for 2-4 hours at 40-60°C. When preparing the slurry, to ensure the homogeneity of the slurry system, the mixture can be stirred at 400-500 r / min for 10-12 hours at 40-60°C.
[0035] Step S3 of the present invention can be specifically referred to as follows: the slurry is poured onto a polytetrafluoroethylene mold or a glass plate mold, and then placed in a drying oven and dried at 80~120℃ for 10~14h to form a film, thereby obtaining a solid electrolyte membrane.
