Surface temperature rise during pulse discharge: At 25℃ and 50% SOC, during a 10s pulse discharge at a rate of 50*C, a K-type thermocouple attached to the middle of the battery casing 200 was used to monitor the surface temperature in real time and record the difference (℃) between the highest surface temperature of the battery and the ambient temperature during the pulse cycle.
[0049] 4. Maximum continuous discharge current: At 25℃ and 50% SOC, constant current discharge is performed with step-increasing current, each step lasting 30 minutes. The maximum current value (A) that the battery can maintain for 30 minutes without reaching the cutoff voltage and without thermal runaway is recorded.
[0050] 5. Maximum pulse discharge current: At 25℃ and 50% SOC, a 3-second pulse discharge was performed with a stepped increasing current. Each pulse was cooled for 60 seconds. The maximum current (A) that the battery could withstand for more than 3 seconds without reaching the cutoff voltage and without thermal runaway was recorded.
[0051] 6. Pulse discharge cycle: At 25℃, each cycle consists of: pulse discharge at a rate of 50*C for 10s, rest for 5min, then charge at a constant current and constant voltage of 0.5C to full charge, and rest for 10min; repeat this cycle 500 times, and calculate the ratio of the discharge capacity after the 500th cycle to the discharge capacity of the first cycle.
[0052] 7. Maximum surface temperature: Record the highest absolute temperature (°C) of the battery casing surface during all the pulse tests described above.
[0053] The battery structure, materials, and other parameters of each embodiment and comparative example are summarized in Table 1. Some test results are shown in [Table 1]. Figure 2-5 .

[0055] The high-power pulse performance and cycle test results of the batteries in each embodiment and comparative example are summarized in Table 2.
[0056] Table 2 High-power pulse performance and cycle test results
[0057] Note: Comparative Example 1 suffers from excessive current density in the tab region due to its monotab structure, resulting in severe polarization and overheating of the tab; Comparative Example 2 suffers from insufficient ion transport kinetics due to its low nickel content, lack of silicon and carbon, and absence of LiFSI in the positive electrode; Comparative Example 3 suffers from runaway expansion of the high-silicon uncoated negative electrode and increased viscosity of the high-concentration electrolyte, leading to a sharp deterioration in cycle performance.
[0058] As can be seen from Tables 1 and 2, Examples 1-3 meet the requirements for extreme pulse power applications. Comparative Example 1 demonstrates that the traditional single-tab structure cannot meet the voltage drop and temperature rise requirements of extreme pulses above 50°C, and the capacity retention rate after 500 pulse cycles is only 72% (<90%). During the cycle, the diaphragm shrinks due to overheating of the tab, and the internal resistance increases sharply. Comparative Example 2 demonstrates that without the synergistic effect of high-nickel cathode, silicon-carbon anode, and LiFSI, the cell power density and low-temperature performance deteriorate significantly, and the specific capacity and rate performance are insufficient. Without the high rate support of silicon-carbon anode and LiFSI, the overall power output deteriorates significantly. Comparative Example 3 demonstrates that when the silicon content of the anode is too high and there is no carbon coating, and the electrolyte concentration is too high, although the initial capacity is high, the cycle stability and thermal safety are severely deteriorated. Although the high-nickel cathode provides a high initial capacity, the volume expansion of the high-silicon uncoated anode under extreme pulses is severe (>35%), leading to particle breakage and continuous thickening of the SEI film. At the same time, the excessively high concentration of LiPF6 causes an increase in electrolyte viscosity and interfacial impedance, both of which together lead to a rapid decline in cycle performance.
