Electrolyte with a nitrogen-based salt structure, manufacturing process for it and use thereof

Description

FIELD

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the technical field of battery, in particular to an electrolyte containing a nitrogen-based salt structure, and a preparation method and the use thereof.BACKGROUND

[0002] The batteries have become a traditional way of storing energy for portable devices. The development of intelligent electronic technologies has imposed higher requirements on the energy density of batteries. In addition, due to the further impetus by the car manufacturers such as Tesla, the electric car has emerged as a novel field of battery use. Each use field of the batteries requires consideration of electrochemical performance, safety and cost of the batteries. In any case, it is imperative to use batteries with higher energy density and longer service life to meet the ever-increasing energy demand.

[0003] Taking the lithium battery as an example, in order to improve the energy density of the battery, it is necessary to use high-voltage, high-specific capacity anode material and low-voltage, high-capacity cathode material, such as high-voltage Lithium Cobaltate (LCO), high-nickel ternary (NCM811, NCM622, NCM532, and NCA), Lithium Nickel Manganate (LNMO) anode material, and cathode material such as metal lithium, graphite, silicon oxide carbon. In addition, it is desirable to match the electrolyte with a wide electrochemical window or form a stable passivation layer on the electrode surface, thereby improving the cycle stability of the battery.

[0004] The electrolyte is generally classified into a liquid-state electrolyte and a solid-state electrolyte, wherein the liquid-state electrolyte has significant advantages of high conductivity and desirable wettability inside the electrode. However, the organic solvent in the liquid-state electrolyte is flammable, prone to carry out uncontrollable side reactions, the electrode interface is unstable, and a large amount of gas can be generated, resulting in severe attenuation of capacity, low cycle service life and poor safety of the battery. The above problems can be significantly suppressed by using a non-flammable solid-state electrolyte. Furthermore, the solid-state electrolyte is proposed to suppress the growth of lithium dendrites. The solid-state electrolyte can be classified into two general categories, namely an organic polymer electrolyte and an inorganic (sulfide and oxide) electrolyte. The polymer has superior flexibility, desirable processability and convenient interface contact with electrodes, but it has low ionic conductivity, limited thermal stability and narrow electrochemical window at room temperature; the sulfide has high ionic conductivity and desirable processability, but most of the sulfide is unstable in air and will generate toxic H 2 S gas upon contacting with water molecules, thereby requiring the extremely rigorous processing environment; the oxide has excellent chemical and thermal stability, high voltage resistance, high ionic conductivity, but it suffers from poor flexibility and large interfacial resistance. Therefore, the liquid-state electrolyte is still predominant in the battery industry, and in order to improve the cycle stability of the liquid battery, the electrolyte is added with various functional additives such as FEC (fluoroethylene carbonate), VC (vinylene carbonate), VEC (vinylidene ethylene carbonate) and DTD (ethylene sulfate, or 1,3,2-Dioxathiolane 2,2-dioxide). For example, the main components of the SEI passivation film formed on the negative electrode surface comprise various inorganic ingredients such as Li 2 CO 3 , LiF, Li 2 O, LiOH and various organic ingredients such as ROCOOLi, ROLi, ROCOOLi, but the first cycle efficiency and specific discharge capacity are still slightly lower due to the consumption of the active ions from the positive electrode. If the added additive can form a passivation layer having ion conductivity and desirable stability on the surface of the electrode, and the ions from the electrodes are less consumed, the oxidation / reduction decomposition of the positive and negative electrode materials to the electrolyte can be effectively prevented. Therefore, the liquid-state electrolyte and the polymer electrolyte with a narrow electrochemical window can be applied in the high-voltage battery system, thereby significantly improving the energy density and cycle service life of the battery. Furthermore, the salt synthesis / purification process of the commercially available electrolyte at present is complicated, the electrolyte price is high, thus the cost of the entire battery is also high; if the salt synthesis / purification process of a new type of electrolyte is simple and the cost is slightly lower, making it partially or completely substitute for the salt as the electrolyte in the prior art, thereby balancing the superior performance and lower cost of the battery.

[0005] -[NBF 3 ]- is a strongly polar group capable of forming salts with cations, whereby -NBF 3 M has a strong sense of presence in the molecular structure, the addition of which may alter the properties of the whole molecular structure. Only a few individual researchers in the prior art have conducted sporadic studies on the compounds containing -BF 3 groups, and its industrial use have not been discovered. US 2011 / 214895 A1 discloses lithium derivatives used in electrolytes for secondary batteries.

[0006] CN108878975A discloses an electrolyte additive comprising a pyridine-boron trifluoride complex and a halogenated silane, wherein the pyridine-boron trifluoride complex is at least one selected from the group consisting of compounds with a structure shown in formula (1): wherein R 11 , R 12 , R 13 , R 14 , R 15 are each independently selected from the hydrogen atom, halogen, cyano group, sulfonic acid group, sulfonyl group, substituted or unsubstituted C 1-20 alkyl group, substituted or unsubstituted C 2-20 alkenyl group, substituted or unsubstituted C 6-26 aryl group, substituted or unsubstituted C 1-20 alkoxy group, substituted or unsubstituted C 6-26 aryloxy group; substituent group is selected from halogen, sulfonic acid group or sulfonyl group. However, it pertains to the complex-based compounds, instead of the nitrogen-based salts, and currently, there are neither important research achievements, nor industrial use.

[0007] The applicant has surprisingly discovered that the -NBF 3 M salt containing Li +< / Na +< has desirable effects in the batteries, and therefore, a research group was specifically established to focus on the salt containing -NBF 3 M and achieved the desired results.

[0008] The present disclosure has conducted an independent study on the substance having the -NBF 3 M in the structure. The nitrogen-based salt has specific structure and properties, and has large influence on the properties of the entire structure, both the chemical and physical properties of the nitrogen-based salt are different from the other types of compound with rings or chains, as a result, the presence of -NBF 3 M on the nitrogen-based salt can generate the effects different from those of other structure. The research subject of the present disclosure is determined to be -N-BF 3 M directly or indirectly connected structure.SUMMARY

[0065] Nitrogen-based boron trifluoride organic salts claimed by the present disclosure were mainly used as additives and salts in the battery. Furthermore, the double bond-containing structure can initiate polymerization to form a single-ion conducting polymer electrolyte. When the nitrogen-based boron trifluoride salt of the present disclosure can be used in a small amount, its main function was to form a passivation layer on the electrode surface after decomposition and the salt has dissociable ions in itself, thus the ions supplied by the electrode were less consumed in the process of forming the passivation layer, thus the first cycle efficiency and cycle performance of the battery were significantly improved. When the salt used in increased amount, it is mainly used as an electrolyte salt, which transported ions after the dissociation; secondarily the salt can passivate electrode, and it was used as a salt alone or in combination with conventional salts to serve as double salts, both exhibiting desirable electrochemical performance.

[0081] As shown by the data in Table 9 and Table 10, the batteries prepared with P1, P4, P7 and P10 had excellent long-cycle stability and better property than the cycle performance of the corresponding batteries prepared with LiTFSI, the possible reasons may be that the nitrogen-based boron trifluoride salt of the present disclosure not only had excellent ion transport performance, but also formed a more dense and stable passivation layer on the anode surface, thereby preventing catalytic decomposition of the electrolyte components by the positive electrode active material. Furthermore, the boron trifluoride salt of the present disclosure did not corrode the current collector and thus exhibits superior electrochemical performance to the conventional salts.IV.

[0083] The electrolyte precursor solutions S3, S8, S9, S12 obtained from Table 11 which were used for assembling the pouch batteries of A2 system respectively, namely the batteries (i.e., Examples) 3, 8, 9, 12, the specific assembly process was as follows: the NCM811 positive electrode having a dimension of 64mm×45mm, the SiOC450 negative electrode having a dimension of 65mm×46mm, and the separator were assembled into the 2Ah pouch battery cell, which was subjected to lamination, baking, electrolyte injection, and formation process to obtain a secondary battery, the battery assembly system was A2, and the separator was a commercially available PE / Al 2 O 3 porous membrane.(3) Battery test

[0084] After the secondary batteries prepared from Examples 3, 8, 9, and 12 were completely cured, a first cycle discharge capacity, a first cycle efficiency, and a capacity retention rate after 50 cycles of the batteries was tested at room temperature, the test voltage was within a range of 3.0-4.2V, wherein the cycle mode was composed of 2 cycles of 0.1C / 0.1C and 48 cycles of 0.3C / 0.3C (C represented the multiplying power), and the test results were as shown in Table 12.

The batteries exhibit very excellent cycle performance, high first cycle efficiency, high first cycle discharge specific capacity, and high capacity retention rate. Furthermore, the additional salt is not added to the battery made from Example 9 (refer to Table 11), but the battery can cycle normally (see Table 12), indicating that the boron trifluoride salt of the present disclosure per se has a salt structure, and in the case of without adding the salt, a solid-state electrolyte with excellent performance can also be obtained after polymerization of the monomers. In addition, when the electrolyte is used in further matching with a conventional salt, the batteries exhibit more excellent electrochemical performance due to the increased number of dissociated ions.
