The following description more particularly illustrates exemplary embodiments. Throughout the present application, teachings are provided through a series of examples that can be used in various combinations. In each example, the listing is only a representative group and should not be construed as exhaustive. secondary battery

[0014] An embodiment of a first aspect of the present application provides a secondary battery. The secondary battery includes a positive electrode sheet, a negative electrode sheet, and an electrolyte. During charging and discharging of the battery, active ions shuttle between the positive electrode sheet and the negative electrode sheet, and are inserted and removed. The electrolyte serves to conduct ions between the positive electrode sheet and the negative electrode sheet. [Negative electrode sheet]

[0015] The negative electrode sheet includes a negative electrode current collector and a negative electrode film sheet. The negative electrode film sheet includes a first negative electrode film layer and a second negative electrode film layer. The first negative electrode film layer is provided on at least one surface of the negative electrode current collector and includes a first negative electrode active material. The first negative electrode active material includes graphite and optionally includes a silicon-based material. The second negative electrode film layer is provided on the surface of the first negative electrode film layer and includes a second negative electrode active material. The second negative electrode active material includes artificial graphite and a silicon-based material. The mass ratio of the silicon-based material in the first negative electrode active material is W1, the mass ratio of the silicon-based material in the second negative electrode active material is W2, and the negative electrode sheet satisfies W2≧W1.

[0016] As can be seen from the results of the inventors' intensive research, when the negative electrode sheet of the secondary battery includes a double film layer structure, and the first negative electrode film layer and the second negative electrode film layer include a specific negative electrode active material (the first negative electrode active material includes graphite and selectively includes silicon-based material, the second negative electrode active material includes artificial graphite and silicon-based material, and the negative electrode sheet satisfies W2≧W1), the negative electrode film sheet has a high reversible capacity, and the thickness of the entire negative electrode film sheet can be thinned, and the transport path of active ions in the negative electrode film sheet can be shortened. In addition, the silicon-based material can exert an excellent hole support effect during the cold pressing of the electrode sheet or the battery cycle expansion, and the volume change of the silicon-based material generated during the charge and discharge process can further improve the hole structure of the outer layer of the negative electrode film sheet, so that the negative electrode sheet can have a hole structure that well maintains the infiltration and reflux of the electrolyte. This can improve the fast charging ability of the secondary battery and effectively improve the cycle performance. In addition, the first negative electrode film layer and the second negative electrode film layer contain a specific negative electrode active material, which allows the negative electrode to sufficiently receive active ions from the positive electrode during fast charging of the battery, thereby reducing the reduction and deposition phenomenon of active ions (e.g., lithium deposition) on the surface of the negative electrode, thereby improving the fast charging performance of the battery and improving the cycle performance and safety performance of the battery.

[0017] Therefore, with the negative electrode sheet designed optimally as described above, a secondary battery using the same can have excellent rapid charging ability, cycle performance, and safety performance on the premise of having a high energy density.

[0018] In some preferred embodiments, the mass ratio W2 of the silicon-based material in the second negative electrode active material satisfies 0% < W2 ≤ 6%, and for example, it may also be 0% < W2 ≤ 5%, 0% < W2 ≤ 4%, 0% < W2 ≤ 3%, 0% < W2 ≤ 2%, etc. Specifically, W2 may be 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.2%, 1.4%, 1.5%, 1.6%, 1.8%, 2.0%, 2.5%, 3% or 5%, etc. By blending artificial graphite and an appropriate amount of silicon-based material in the second negative electrode film layer, the rapid lithium insertion performance of the negative electrode film sheet can be improved, while reducing the volume expansion of the battery during the cycle charge and discharge process, and also reducing the side reactions at the negative electrode interface, thereby further improving the energy density and cycle performance of the battery. Therefore, the secondary battery can better combine the energy density, rapid charging ability, and cycle performance. More preferably, 1% ≤ W2 ≤ 3%. Most preferably, 1% ≤ W2 ≤ 2%.

[0019] In some preferred embodiments, the mass ratio of the silicon-based material in the first negative electrode active material is 0% ≤ W1 ≤ 5%. For example, it may also be 0% ≤ W1 ≤ 4%, 0% ≤ W1 ≤ 3%, 0% ≤ W1 ≤ 2%, 0% ≤ W1 ≤ 1%, etc. Specifically, W1 may be 0%, 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, 2%, 2.5%, 3% or 4%, etc. As can be seen from the results of the study by the inventors, when the first negative electrode film layer is blended with graphite and an appropriate amount of silicon-based material, the energy density of the battery is further improved, but the improvement in the rapid charging ability is not significant, and it also has a certain impact on the cycle performance of the battery. More preferably, 0% ≤ W1 ≤ 3%. Particularly preferably, 0% ≤ W1 ≤ 2%. Most preferably, W1 = 0% (that is, the first negative electrode film layer does not contain a silicon-based material).

[0020] In some preferred embodiments, the mass ratio W1 of the silicon-based material in the first negative electrode active material and the mass ratio W2 of the silicon-based material in the second negative electrode active material satisfy W1+W2≦10%, preferably W1+W2≦6%. More preferably, W1+W2≦3%. Particularly preferably, 1%≦W1+W2≦3%. By setting W1+W2 within a predetermined range, the energy density, rapid charging ability, and cycle performance of the secondary battery can be further balanced.

[0021] As can be seen from the results of intensive research by the present inventors, on the premise that the negative electrode sheet of the secondary battery according to the present application satisfies the above design conditions, if the negative electrode active material further selectively satisfies one or more of the following design conditions, the performance of the secondary battery can be further improved.

[0022] The inventors have found that the use of silicon-based materials with different particle sizes further improves the performance of the battery. Specifically, the first negative active material can contain silicon-based materials with different particle sizes, and / or the second negative active material can contain silicon-based materials with different particle sizes. In some preferred embodiments, the silicon-based materials with different particle sizes include a first silicon-based material and a second silicon-based material, and the particle size of the first silicon-based material is smaller than that of the second silicon-based material. The first silicon-based material with a smaller particle size and the second silicon-based material with a larger particle size can engage with each other to provide more active sites for the insertion of active ions and shorten the diffusion path of the active ions in the particles. At the same time, new interfaces caused by volume changes in the silicon-based material where the two engage with each other are reduced, and problems such as excessive thickness of the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) film and / or consumption of the electrolyte caused by reactions at the new interfaces are also reduced, thereby further improving the rapid charging capability, cycle performance, and storage performance of the secondary battery.

[0023] The particle size of the first silicon-based material is preferably 0.05 μm to 7 μm, and more preferably 0.1 μm to 5 μm. If the particle size of the first silicon-based material is within a predetermined range, the rapid charging capability of the secondary battery can be further improved.

[0024] The particle size of the second silicon-based material is preferably 7 μm to 15 μm, and more preferably 8 μm to 12 μm. If the particle size of the second silicon-based material is within a predetermined range, the cycle performance and storage performance of the secondary battery can be further improved.

[0025] In some embodiments, the weight ratio of the first silicon-based material to the second silicon-based material may be from 5:95 to 30:70, and preferably from 10:90 to 20:80.

[0026] In some embodiments, the silicon-based material can include one or more of elemental silicon, silicon oxygen compounds, silicon carbon composites, silicon nitrogen composites, and silicon alloys. Preferably, the silicon-based material includes silicon oxygen compounds. The silicon oxygen compounds can satisfy the formula SiOx, 0.6≦x<2. More preferably, 0.9≦x≦1.2.

[0027] When the first negative electrode active material and the second negative electrode active material both contain a silicon-based material, the silicon-based material in the first negative electrode active material and the silicon-based material in the second negative electrode active material can be the same or different.

[0028] When the silicon-based material includes the above-mentioned first silicon-based material and the second silicon-based material, the first silicon-based material and the second silicon-based material are each independently one or more selected from silicon elemental substance, silicon oxygen compound, silicon carbon composite and silicon alloy.Preferably, the first silicon-based material and the second silicon-based material each independently include a silicon oxygen compound (for example, the above-mentioned SiOx).

[0029] In some preferred embodiments, the mass ratio of the artificial graphite in the second negative electrode active material is ≧90%, more preferably ≧95%, more preferably ≧97%, and particularly preferably ≧98%. When the mass ratio of the artificial graphite in the second negative electrode active material is within a certain range, the cycle performance of the battery can be improved.

[0030] In some preferred embodiments, the second negative electrode active material includes secondary particles, and the quantitative ratio of the secondary particles in the second negative electrode active material is ≧50%. For example, the quantitative ratio of the secondary particles in the second negative electrode active material may be 50% to 95%, 60% to 90%, 70% to 95%, or 80% to 90%, etc. Specifically, the quantitative ratio of the secondary particles in the second negative electrode active material may be 50%, 60%, 70%, 80%, 90%, etc. When a certain amount of secondary particles is included in the second negative electrode active material, the desorption active ion channel in the second negative electrode film layer can be increased, and the risk of active ions being reduced and precipitated can be further reduced, so that the rapid charging performance and cycle performance of the battery can be further improved. More preferably, the quantitative ratio of the secondary particles in the second negative electrode active material is ≧70%.

[0031] Particularly preferably, in the second negative electrode active material, the artificial graphite contains secondary particles, and the silicon-based material mainly contains primary particles. The quantity ratio of the primary particles in the silicon-based material may be 80% to 100%, 90% to 100%, 95% to 100%, or 98% to 100%, etc.

[0032] In some embodiments, the graphite of the first negative electrode active material can include one or more of synthetic graphite, natural graphite, and preferably, the graphite of the first negative electrode active material includes synthetic graphite.

[0033] In some preferred embodiments, the mass ratio of artificial graphite in the first negative electrode active material is ≧50%, more preferably 60% to 100%. When the second negative electrode active material includes artificial graphite and a silicon-based material, and the first negative electrode active material of the first negative electrode film layer contains a large amount of artificial graphite, the volume expansion of the negative electrode sheet during the cycle process can be further reduced, so that the cycle performance of the battery can be further improved. In addition, the thermal stability of the artificial graphite at high temperatures is also excellent, so that the safety performance during the use of the battery can be effectively improved. Specifically, the mass ratio of artificial graphite in the first negative electrode active material can be 60%, 65%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90% or 100%.

[0034] In some preferred embodiments, the first negative electrode active material includes primary particles, and the number ratio of the primary particles in the first negative electrode active material is ≧60%. For example, the number ratio of the primary particles in the first negative electrode active material may be 60% to 100%, 70% to 95%, 80% to 100%, 90% to 100%, etc. Specifically, the number ratio of the primary particles in the first negative electrode active material may be 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, 100%, etc. It is preferable that the first negative electrode active material has more primary particles, and in this case, the capacity of the battery is high. At the same time, the larger the ratio of the primary particles, the better the adhesion between the first negative electrode film layer and the current collector, so that the cycle performance of the battery is further improved. More preferably, the number ratio of the primary particles in the first negative electrode active material is 80% to 100%.

[0035] In some preferred embodiments, the volume average particle size D of the first negative electrode active material v 50 is the volume average particle size D of the second negative electrode active material v As can be seen from the study by the present inventors, the D v 50 is the D of the second negative electrode active material vWhen it is greater than 50, it is favorable to optimize the hole structure of the first negative electrode film layer and the second negative electrode film layer, which further improves the fast charging performance of the battery. At the same time, the optimization of the hole structure is helpful to reduce the local polarization of the electrode, and further improve the cycle performance of the battery.

[0036] In some preferred embodiments, the D of the first negative electrode active material v 50 is 12 μm to 18 μm, and more preferably 13 μm to 17 μm.

[0037] In some preferred embodiments, the D of the second negative electrode active material v 50 is from 9 μm to 15 μm, and more preferably from 10 μm to 13 μm.

[0038] In the secondary battery according to the present application, the first negative electrode active material and / or the second negative electrode active material may selectively contain a certain amount of other common negative electrode active materials, such as one or more of natural graphite, soft carbon, hard carbon, tin-based materials, and lithium titanate, in addition to the above-mentioned negative electrode active materials according to the present application. The tin-based materials may be one or more selected from the group consisting of elemental tin, tin oxygen compounds, and tin alloys.

[0039] The negative electrode active materials used in the present application are all commercially available. Those skilled in the art can appropriately select them according to the actual usage conditions.

[0040] In the secondary battery according to the present application, the negative electrode film sheet includes a normal negative electrode active material, an optional adhesive, an optional conductive agent, and other optional auxiliary agents, and is obtained by applying and drying a normal negative electrode slurry. The negative electrode slurry is formed by dispersing the normal negative electrode active material and the optional conductive agent, adhesive, etc. in a solvent and stirring the mixture uniformly. The solvent may be N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) or deionized water.

[0041] By way of example, the conductive agent may include one or more of superconducting carbon, acetylene black, carbon black, ketjen black, carbon dots, carbon nanotubes, graphene, and carbon nanofibers.

[0042] By way of example, the adhesive may include one or more of styrene butadiene rubber (SBR), water-soluble unsaturated resin SR-1B, water-based acrylic resin, polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), sodium alginate (SA), and carboxymethyl chitosan (CMCS).

[0043] Other optional auxiliary agents are, for example, thickeners (eg, sodium carboxymethylcellulose CMC-Na), PTC thermistor materials, and the like.

[0044] As a result of further intensive research, the inventors have discovered that the performance of the secondary battery can be further improved if the negative electrode sheet of the secondary battery according to the present application satisfies the above design conditions and the negative electrode film sheet further selectively satisfies one or more of the following design conditions:

[0045] In some preferred embodiments, the areal density of the negative electrode film sheet is 8 mg / cm 2 ~13mg / cm 2 and more preferably 9 mg / cm 2 ~12.5mg / cm 2 The surface density of the negative electrode film sheet refers to the surface density of the entire negative electrode film sheet (i.e., the sum of the surface densities of the first negative electrode film layer and the second negative electrode film layer).

[0046] In some preferred embodiments, the areal density ratio of the first negative electrode film layer to the second negative electrode film layer is 2:3 to 3:2, for example, 4:5 to 5:4. When the areal density ratio of the first negative electrode film layer to the second negative electrode film layer is within a certain range, the secondary battery can better balance the energy density, fast charging ability and cycle performance.

[0047] In some preferred embodiments, the compressed density of the negative electrode film sheet is 1.4 g / cm 3 ~1.7g / cm 3 More preferably, the compressed density of the negative electrode film layer is 1.5 g / cm 3 ~1.65g / cm 3 The compression density of the negative electrode film sheet refers to the compression density of the entire negative electrode film sheet (i.e., the ratio of the surface density to the thickness of the negative electrode film sheet). When the compression density of the negative electrode film sheet is within a certain range, the negative electrode sheet has a high reversible capacity and also has excellent low cycle expansion performance and dynamic performance, thereby further improving the energy density, fast charging ability and cycle performance of the battery.

[0048] In some preferred embodiments, the porosity of the second negative electrode film layer is greater than that of the first negative electrode film layer. The second negative electrode film layer with greater porosity and the first negative electrode film layer with less porosity can be interlocked together to further improve the fast charging and cycling performance of the battery.

[0049] In some preferred embodiments, the porosity of the first negative electrode film layer is preferably 15% to 35%, more preferably 20% to 30%.

[0050] In some preferred embodiments, the porosity of the second negative electrode film layer is preferably 20% to 40%, more preferably 25% to 35%.

[0051] In some preferred embodiments, the thickness ratio of the first negative electrode film layer to the second negative electrode film layer is 4:6 to 7:3, more preferably 5:5 to 5:3. When the thickness ratio of the first negative electrode film layer to the second negative electrode film layer is within a certain range, the secondary battery can better balance the energy density, fast charging ability and cycle performance.

[0052] In some preferred embodiments, the thickness of the negative electrode film sheet may be 60 μm to 90 μm, more preferably 65 μm to 80 μm, and is the sum of the thicknesses of the first negative electrode film layer and the second negative electrode film layer.

[0053] In the secondary battery according to the present application, the negative electrode current collector can be a metal foil sheet or a composite current collector (a composite current collector can be formed by providing a metal material on a polymer substrate). For example, the negative electrode current collector can be a copper foil.

[0054] In the secondary battery according to the present application, the negative electrode film sheet may be provided on one surface of the negative electrode current collector, or may be provided on both surfaces of the negative electrode current collector at the same time. For example, the negative electrode current collector has two surfaces that face each other in the thickness direction of the negative electrode current collector. The negative electrode film sheet is provided on either one or both of the two facing surfaces of the negative electrode current collector.

[0055] 2 is a schematic diagram of one embodiment of a negative electrode sheet 10 according to the present application. The negative electrode sheet 10 is composed of a negative electrode current collector 101, a first negative electrode film layer 103 provided on each of the two surfaces of the negative electrode current collector 101, and a second negative electrode film layer 102 provided on the first negative electrode film layer 103.

[0056] 3 is a schematic diagram of another embodiment of the negative electrode sheet 10 according to the present application. The negative electrode sheet 10 is composed of a negative electrode current collector 101, a first negative electrode film layer 103 provided on one surface of the negative electrode current collector, and a second negative electrode film layer 102 provided on the first negative electrode film layer 103.

[0057] In this application, the parameters of each negative electrode film sheet (e.g., thickness, porosity, compression density, areal density, etc. of the film sheet) all refer to the parameter range of a single-sided film sheet. When negative electrode film sheets are provided on two surfaces of a negative electrode current collector, if the parameters of the film sheet on either surface satisfy the present application, it is considered to be within the protection scope of the present application. In this application, the ranges of thickness, porosity, compression density, areal density, etc. of the film layer all refer to the parameters of the film layer used in the assembly of the battery after cold compaction.

[0058] In the secondary battery according to the present application, the negative electrode sheet does not exclude additional functional layers other than the negative electrode film sheet. For example, in some embodiments, the negative electrode sheet described herein is sandwiched between the negative electrode current collector and the first negative electrode film layer, and further includes a conductive coating layer (e.g., made of a conductive agent and an adhesive) provided on the surface of the negative electrode current collector. In other embodiments, the negative electrode sheet described herein further includes a protective coating layer coated on the surface of the second negative electrode film layer.

[0059] In the present application, the mass ratio of silicon-based materials in the negative electrode active material has a meaning known in the art, and can be measured using a method known in the art. For example, a cross section of the negative electrode film sheet (e.g., a cross section in the thickness direction of the film sheet) is observed using a scanning electron microscope (e.g., ZEISS Sigma 300), and quantitative mapping is performed using energy dispersive X-ray analysis (e.g., ZEISS Sigma 300 equipped with an energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer). This allows the element content of the negative electrode film sheet to be measured at the scanning position of the cross section, and the element distribution is obtained. The element distribution of Si in one region in the cross section can be integrated to obtain the content of Si in the region. In order to improve the accuracy of the measurement, a plurality of regions (e.g., 10) can be counted and the average value can be used as the measurement result.

[0060] In this application, the particle size of the silicon-based material has a meaning known in the art, and can be measured using a method known in the art. For example, it can be measured using a scanning electron microscope (e.g., ZEISS Sigma 300). The sample is prepared as follows. First, the negative electrode sheet is cut into a measurement sample of a certain size (e.g., 2 cm x 2 cm), and the negative electrode sheet is fixed to the sample stage with paraffin wax. Next, the sample stage is fixed to the sample holder, and the power of an argon ion cross-section buff polisher (e.g., IB-19500CP) is turned on, and a vacuum (e.g., 10 -4 Set the argon gas flow rate (e.g., 0.15MPa), voltage (e.g., 8KV) and buffing time (e.g., 2 hours), and adjust the sample stage to the oscillation mode for buffing. The measurement of the sample can refer to JY / T010-1996. To ensure the accuracy of the measurement results, multiple (e.g., 10) different areas can be randomly selected from the measurement sample for scanning measurement. At a certain magnification (e.g., 500x), the staff is used to read the grain size of all silicon-based materials in the measurement area. To further improve the accuracy of the measurement, the measurement results of multiple areas can be aggregated.

[0061] In the present application, primary particles and secondary particles have the meanings known in the art. Primary particles refer to particles that are not in an aggregated state. Secondary particles refer to particles in an aggregated state formed by aggregation of two or more primary particles. Primary particles and secondary particles can be easily distinguished from each other by SEM images taken using a scanning electron microscope.

[0062] The quantitative ratio of primary particles or secondary particles in the negative electrode active material can be measured using known instruments and methods in the art. For example, it can be measured using a scanning electron microscope. The quantitative ratio of secondary particles can be measured by spreading and attaching the negative electrode active material to a conductive adhesive to prepare a measurement sample with a length of 6 cm and a width of 1.1 cm, and measuring the particle morphology using a scanning electron microscope (e.g., ZEISS Sigma 300). The measurement can refer to JY / T010-1996. In order to ensure the accuracy of the measurement result, multiple (e.g., 20) different areas can be randomly selected from the measurement sample to perform scanning measurement. At a certain magnification (e.g., 1000 times), the number of secondary particles in each area is calculated as a percentage of the number of total particles. That is, it is the quantitative ratio of secondary particles in the area. The average value of the measurement results of multiple measurement areas is taken as the measurement result. Similarly, the quantitative ratio of the primary particles in the first negative electrode active material can also be measured.

[0063] In this application, the negative electrode active material D v 50 has a meaning known in the art and can be measured using instruments and methods known in the art, for example, see standard GB / T19077.1-2016 and can be measured using a laser particle size analyzer (Malvern Master Size 3000). v 50 is the particle size corresponding to when the cumulative volume distribution percentage of the negative electrode active material reaches 50%.

[0064] In this application, the thickness of the negative electrode film sheet has a meaning known in the art and can be measured using a method known in the art, for example, a Mitutoyo 293-100 tenthousandth micrometer with an accuracy of 0.1 μm.

[0065] In this application, the thickness of each of the first and second negative electrode film layers can be measured using a scanning electron microscope (e.g., ZEISS Sigma 300). The sample is prepared as follows. First, the negative electrode sheet is cut into a measurement sample of a certain size (e.g., 2 cm x 2 cm), and the negative electrode sheet is fixed to a sample stage with paraffin wax. Next, the sample stage is fixed to a sample holder, and an argon ion cross-section buffing machine (e.g., IB-19500CP) is turned on and vacuum (e.g., 10 -4 Pa), set the argon gas flow rate (e.g., 0.15 MPa), voltage (e.g., 8 KV), and buffing time (e.g., 2 hours), and adjust the sample stage to the rocking mode for buffing. The measurement of the sample can refer to JY / T010-1996. In order to ensure the accuracy of the measurement results, multiple (e.g., 10) different areas can be randomly selected from the measurement sample for scanning measurement. At a certain magnification (e.g., 500 times), the staff is used to read the thicknesses of the first and second negative electrode film layers in the measurement area, and the average value of the multiple measurement areas is taken as the measurement result.

[0066] In this application, the areal density of the negative electrode film sheet has a meaning known in the art and can be measured using a method known in the art. For example, take a negative electrode sheet that is coated on one side and cold pressed (if the negative electrode sheet is coated on both sides, the negative electrode film sheet on one side can be wiped off first), cut it into a small circular sheet with an area of ​​S1, and weigh it and record it as M1. Then, wipe off the negative electrode film sheet of the weighed negative electrode sheet, and weigh the weight of the negative electrode current collector and record it as M0. Areal density of the negative electrode film sheet = (weight of the negative electrode sheet M1 - weight of the negative electrode current collector M0) / S1.

[0067] In this application, the compression density of the negative electrode film sheet has a meaning known in the art and can be measured using a method known in the art. Compression density of the negative electrode film sheet = areal density of the negative electrode film sheet / thickness of the negative electrode film sheet.

[0068] The various parameters of the negative electrode active material may be measured by sampling before application, or may be measured by sampling from the negative electrode film layer after cold pressing.

[0069] When the measurement sample is sampled from the negative electrode film sheet after cold pressing, for example, the sample can be sampled as follows.

[0070] (1) First, arbitrarily select the negative electrode film sheet after cold pressing, and sample the second negative electrode active material (you can choose to sample the chips with a blade), and ensure that the depth of the chips does not exceed the boundary area between the first negative electrode film layer and the second negative electrode film layer.

[0071] (2) Next, sample the first negative electrode active material. During the process of cold pressing of the negative electrode film sheet, there may be a fusion layer in the boundary region between the first negative electrode film layer and the second negative electrode film layer (i.e., the first negative electrode active material and the second negative electrode active material may exist simultaneously in the fusion layer). For the sake of measurement accuracy, when sampling the first negative electrode active material, the fusion layer may be cut and then the cuttings may be sampled for the first negative electrode active material.

[0072] (3) The first and second negative electrode active materials collected above are placed in deionized water, respectively, and the first and second negative electrode active materials are suction filtered and dried. After drying, each negative electrode active material is baked at a certain temperature and time (e.g., 400°C, 2 hours) to remove the adhesive and conductive carbon, thereby obtaining measurement samples of the first and second negative electrode active materials.

[0073] In the above sampling process, the location of the boundary region between the first and second negative electrode film layers can be determined with the aid of an optical microscope or a scanning electron microscope. [Positive electrode sheet]

[0118] Except for adjusting the relevant parameters in the manufacturing process of the negative electrode sheet to obtain the corresponding secondary battery, the battery is manufactured in the same manner as in Example 1. See Table 1 for details. Measurement content 1) Measurement of battery quick charging capability

[0119] The batteries of the above examples and comparative examples are charged and discharged for the first time at a current of 1C (i.e., the current value at which the theoretical capacity is completely discharged within 1 hour) at 25° C. Specifically, the batteries are charged at a constant current of 1C up to a voltage of 4.25V, then charged at a constant voltage of ≦0.05C, and allowed to stand for 5 minutes, and then discharged at a constant current of 0.33C up to a voltage of 2.8V, and the actual capacity is recorded as C0.

[0120] Next, the battery is charged at a constant current of 1.0C0, 1.3C0, 1.5C0, 1.8C0, 2.0C0, 2.3C0, 2.5C0, and 3.0C0 in sequence to a total battery charge cut-off voltage of 4.25V or a negative electrode cut-off potential of 0V (as previously achieved). After each charge is completed, it is necessary to discharge at 1C0 to a total battery discharge cut-off voltage of 2.8V. The corresponding negative electrode potentials are recorded when the battery is charged to 10%, 20%, 30%, ..., 80% SOC (State of Charge) at different charge ratios, and the charge ratio-negative electrode potential curves at different SOC states are drawn and linearly fitted to obtain the charge ratios corresponding to when the negative electrode potential at different SOC states is 0V. The charge ratios are the charge windows at the respective SOC states, and are respectively C 10%SOC , C 20%SOC , C 30%SOC , C 40%SOC , C 50%SOC , C 60%SOC , C 70%SOC , C 80%SOC The formula (60 / C 20%SOC +60 / C 30%SOC +60 / C 40%SOC +60 / C 50%SOC +60 / C 60%SOC +60 / C 70%SOC +60 / C 80%SOC ) × 10%, the charging time T (assuming that the battery does not deposit lithium) for the battery to be charged from 10% SOC to 80% SOC is calculated, and is expressed in minutes. The shorter the time, the better the rapid charging performance of the battery. 2) Measurement of the cycle performance of the battery

[0121] At 25°C, the secondary batteries manufactured in each Example and Comparative Example were charged at a constant current of 1C up to a charge cut-off voltage of 4.25V, then charged at a constant voltage of 0.05C, left to stand for 5 minutes, and discharged at a constant current of 1C up to a discharge cut-off voltage of 2.8V, left to stand for 5 minutes, which constitutes one charge-discharge cycle. The battery was subjected to cycle charge-discharge measurement in this manner until the battery capacity was attenuated to 80%. The number of cycles at this time is the cycle life of the battery at 25°C.

[0125] In addition, as can be seen from Examples 6, 9-11 and Examples 8, 12-14, when the first negative electrode film layer also contains a silicon-based material and satisfies W2≧W1, it increases the energy density of the battery, but has little effect on the fast charging performance and cycle performance of the battery.
