[0001] The present application relates to the field of secondary battery technology, and in particular to an electrolyte, a sodium ion secondary battery containing the electrolyte, a battery pack, a battery module and a power consuming device. [Background technology]

[0002] Sodium ion secondary batteries are an energy storage battery system with great potential due to the abundant sodium resources and advantages such as low cost, and their structure includes positive and negative electrodes that can sorb and release sodium ions, and an electrolyte that transports sodium ions. Currently, sodium ion secondary batteries generally use carbonate ester as a solvent for the electrolyte, which makes the interface passivation film formed between the negative and positive electrodes unstable, resulting in severe self-discharge phenomenon in sodium ion secondary batteries and poor cycle performance.

[0003] Therefore, the development and design of a sodium-ion secondary battery that improves the self-discharge rate and cycle performance has great practical value. Summary of the Invention

[0006] By using the first additive and the second additive in combination in the electrolyte, a stable interface passivation film composed mainly of an inorganic salt is formed on the positive and negative electrodes, thereby improving the self-discharge and cycle performance of the sodium-ion secondary battery while also achieving good power performance.

[0007] In any embodiment, in the electrolyte of the present application, the oxalate-containing salt in the second additive is selected from lithium bis(oxalato)borate, sodium difluoro(oxalato)borate, lithium oxalate, lithium difluorobis(oxalato)phosphate, sodium tetrafluoro(oxalato)phosphate, or a mixture thereof, the compound of formula (I) is selected from dimethyl oxalate, diethyl oxalate, diphenyl oxalate, dipropenyl oxalate, or a mixture thereof, and the compound of formula (II) is 1,4-dioxane-2,3-dione and / or 1,4-dioxacycloheptadecane-2,3-dione.

[0008] This is advantageous in further optimizing the composition of the electrolyte, forming a stable interfacial passivation film on the positive electrode, preventing sodium alkyl carbonate from reacting on the positive electrode, stabilizing the positive electrode potential, and suppressing the self-discharge phenomenon of the positive electrode.

[0009] In any embodiment, in the electrolyte of the present application, the first additive is selected from sulfur hexafluoride, sulfur tetrafluoride, sulfuryl fluoride, sulfur dioxide, sulfur trioxide, carbon disulfide, dimethyl sulfide, methyl ethyl sulfide, sulfur monofluoride, sulfur difluoride, thionyl fluoride and tetrafluorothionyl or a mixture thereof, and optionally selected from sulfur hexafluoride, sulfur tetrafluoride, sulfuryl fluoride, sulfur dioxide, sulfur trioxide, carbon disulfide or a mixture thereof.

[0010] This is advantageous in further optimizing the components of the electrolyte, forming a stable interfacial passivation film on the negative electrode, preventing the carbonate ester solvent from reacting with the negative electrode active material on the negative electrode, stabilizing the negative electrode potential, and suppressing the self-discharge phenomenon of the negative electrode.

[0011] In any embodiment, the mass fraction W1 of the first additive in the electrolyte of the present application is 0.01% to 5%, optionally 0.1% to 2%, based on the total mass of the electrolyte.

[0012] By defining this range, after the battery is formed, the negative electrode film layer has an appropriate amount of sulfur-containing inorganic components, which is advantageous for the negative electrode interfacial passivation film to be stable, dense and of appropriate thickness, and the self-discharge and cycle performance of the sodium ion secondary battery are further improved.

[0013] In any embodiment, in the electrolyte solution of the present application, the molecular weight of the first additive is 50 g / mol to 200 g / mol.

[0014] By limiting the molecular weight of the low-boiling point sulfur-containing compound, the compound has a strong diffusive ability in the electrolyte and can rapidly diffuse to the negative electrode and react to form a stable interface passivation film.

[0015] In any embodiment, in the electrolyte of the present application, the mass fraction W2 of the second additive in the electrolyte is 0.01% to 5%, and optionally 0.1% to 2%, based on the total weight of the electrolyte.

[0016] By limiting the content of the second additive, it is favorable for the surface of the positive electrode to be covered with an interfacial passivation film after the first charging of the battery, and the interfacial passivation film is sufficient to prevent a small amount of alkyl sodium carbonate present in the electrolyte from undergoing a side reaction on the positive electrode, thereby suppressing the self-discharge phenomenon of the positive electrode, and further improving the self-discharge and cycle performance of the sodium ion secondary battery.

[0017] In any embodiment, in the electrolyte of the present application, the sum of the mass fractions of the first additive and the second additive is 0.5% to 10.5%, optionally 1% to 10%, optionally 1% to 6%, and further optionally 1% to 3%, based on the total mass of the electrolyte, and wherein the ratio of the mass fraction W1 of the first additive in the electrolyte to the mass fraction W2 of the second additive in the electrolyte is 1:(0.01-100), optionally 1:(0.1-10), and further optionally 1:(0.2-5).

[0018] As a result, the electrolyte forms a stable and more conductive positive and negative interfacial passivation film on the surfaces of the positive and negative electrodes, enabling the battery to have not only significantly improved self-discharge rate and cycle performance, but also good power performance.

[0019] In any embodiment, in the electrolyte solution of the present application, the electrolyte sodium salt is NaPF 6 , NaBF 4 , NaN(SO 2 F) 2 , NaClO 4 , NaAsF 6 , NaB(C 2 O 4 ) 2 , NaBF 2 (C 2 O 4 ), NaN(SO 2 R F ) 2 and NaN(SO 2 F)(SO 2 R F), where R F is C b F 2b+1 where b is an integer in the range of 1-10, optionally an integer in the range of 1-3, and further optionally R F -CF 3 , -C 2 F 5 or -CF 2 CF 2 CF 3 It is.

[0024] A fourth aspect of the present application provides a battery pack, the battery pack including the battery module according to the third aspect of the present application.

[0026] The present application uses a first additive, which is a low boiling point sulfur compound, and a second additive, which is a salt containing oxalate and / or an oxalic acid ester, in an electrolyte to form a stable positive and negative electrode interface passivation film, thereby improving the self-discharge rate and cycle performance of the secondary battery while simultaneously achieving good power performance.

[0029] The "ranges" disclosed in this application are defined in the form of lower and upper limits, and a given range is defined by selecting one lower limit and one upper limit, and the selected lower and upper limits define the boundaries of the particular range. Such defined ranges may be inclusive or exclusive of the end values, and may be arbitrarily combined, i.e., any lower limit may be combined with any upper limit to form a range. For example, if ranges of 60-120 and 80-110 are listed for a particular parameter, it is understood that ranges of 60-110 and 80-120 are also envisaged. It is noted that if 1 and 2 are listed as the minimum range values, and 3, 4 and 5 are listed as the maximum range values, then 1-3, 1-4, 1-5, 2-3, 2-4 and 2-6 are all envisaged. In this application, unless otherwise specified, a numerical range "a to b" represents a shorthand representation of any combination of real numbers a to b, where a and b are both real numbers. For example, the numerical range "0-5" represents a list of all real numbers between "0-5" already listed in this specification, and "0-5" is only a shorthand representation of combinations of these numbers. Also, expressing a parameter as an integer ≧2 is equivalent to disclosing that this parameter is, for example, the integers 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, etc.

For example, the terms "comprise" and "comprises" may further include or include other ingredients not listed, or may include or include only the listed ingredients.

[0034] Unless otherwise stated, in this application, the term "or" is inclusive. For example, the phrase "A or B" means "A, B, or both A and B." More specifically, "A or B" is satisfied in the following cases: A is true (or exists) and B is false (or does not exist); A is false (or does not exist) but B is true (or exists); and A and B are both true (or exist).

[0035] At present, the solvent commonly used for the electrolyte in sodium-ion secondary batteries is carbonate ester, which is used in the negative electrode to 2 The interface passivation film is formed by using alkyl sodium carbonate (Na) and sodium carbonate as the main components. Because alkyl sodium carbonate can be dissolved in carbonate ester solvent and alkyl carbonate ester has strong reducing property, the electrolyte can continue the reduction reaction at the negative electrode and the oxidation reaction at the positive electrode, so that the potential of the negative electrode constantly rises and the potential of the positive electrode constantly falls, and the self-discharge phenomenon of the sodium ion secondary battery is serious.

[0036] Surprisingly, the inventors have found that by adding a low boiling point sulfur-containing additive and an oxalate-containing salt or an oxalate ester additive to the electrolyte together, a stable interfacial passivation film, both of which are mainly composed of inorganic salts, can be rapidly formed at the negative and positive electrodes, thereby improving the self-discharge phenomenon and cycle performance of sodium ion secondary batteries under the premise of maintaining a low interfacial impedance.

[0037] The electrolyte formulation of the present application is particularly applicable to sodium ion secondary batteries having a carbonaceous material as the anode.

[0043] The use of a low-boiling sulfur-containing compound as a first additive and a salt containing oxalate and / or an oxalic acid ester as a second additive in the electrolyte is advantageous in simultaneously generating a stable interfacial passivation film mainly composed of an inorganic salt on the positive and negative electrodes, thereby suppressing the reaction between the electrolyte and active sodium and stabilizing the potentials of the positive and negative electrodes, thereby significantly improving both the self-discharge and cycle performance of the sodium-ion secondary battery while also achieving good power performance.

[0044] In some embodiments, the second additive in the electrolyte of the present application, the oxalate-containing salt, is selected from lithium bis(oxalato)borate, sodium difluoro(oxalato)borate, lithium oxalate, lithium difluorobis(oxalato)phosphate, sodium tetrafluoro(oxalato)phosphate, or mixtures thereof; the compound of formula (I) is selected from dimethyl oxalate, diethyl oxalate, diphenyl oxalate, dipropenyl oxalate, or mixtures thereof; and the compound of formula (II) is 1,4-dioxane-2,3-dione and / or 1,4-dioxacycloheptadecane-2,3-dione.

[0045] The oxalic acid compound, compared to the organic solvent of the electrolyte, is more likely to undergo oxidative decomposition on the positive electrode and form a stable interface passivation film mainly composed of sodium oxalate. Since sodium oxalate is insoluble in the electrolyte and the interface passivation film is dense, the electrolyte and the positive electrode active material cannot come into direct contact with each other, and a small amount of sodium alkyl carbonate (ROCO 2 Na) cannot undergo oxidative decomposition at the positive electrode, and the positive electrode potential is stabilized, which is advantageous in further reducing the decrease in the positive electrode potential due to the side reaction of sodium alkyl carbonate at the positive electrode.

[0046] In some embodiments, the first additive in the electrolyte of the present application is sulfur hexafluoride (SF 6 ), sulfur tetrafluoride (SF 4 ), sulfuryl fluoride (SO 2 F 2 ), sulfur dioxide (SO 2 ), sulfur trioxide (SO 3 ), carbon disulfide (CS 2 ), dimethyl sulfide (CH 2 SCH 3 ), methyl ethyl sulfide (CH 2 SCH 2 CH 3 ), sulfur monofluoride (S 2 F 2 ), sulfur difluoride (SF 2 ), thionyl fluoride (SOF 2 ) and thionyl tetrafluoroacetate (SOF 4 ) or mixtures thereof, optionally selected from sulfur hexafluoride (SF 6 ), sulfur tetrafluoride (SF 4 ), sulfuryl fluoride (SO 2 F 2 ), sulfur dioxide (SO 2 ), sulfur trioxide (SO 3 ), carbon disulfide (CS 2 ) or a mixture thereof.

[0047] Compared with the solvent carbonate, the low boiling point sulfur-containing compound causes a reduction reaction on the negative electrode, and it becomes easier to form an interface passivation film mainly composed of a sulfur-containing inorganic salt, and since the inorganic salt does not dissolve in the electrolyte, the interface passivation film is stable and the negative electrode potential is stable. In addition, a sulfur-containing compound with a boiling point lower than 70°C has a high diffusion rate in the electrolyte and can quickly form a film on the negative electrode, while at the same time reducing the viscosity of the electrolyte, improving the conductivity of the sodium ion secondary battery, and reducing the internal resistance of the battery.

[0048] In some embodiments, the mass fraction W1 of the first additive in the electrolyte of the present application is 0.01% to 5%, and optionally 0.1% to 2%, based on the total weight of the electrolyte. Thus, the content of the first additive (low boiling point sulfur-containing compound) within the above range is advantageous for forming a stable, dense and moderately thick interfacial passivation film on the negative electrode, and the self-discharge and cycle performance of the sodium ion secondary battery are further improved.

[0049] In the present application, it should be understood that the term "sulfur-containing compounds having a boiling point of 70° C. or less" refers to sulfur-containing compounds having a boiling point of 70° C. or less measured at normal pressure.

[0050] In this application, the boiling point may be measured according to GB / T 616-2006.

[0051] In some embodiments, the sulfur-containing compound is in a gaseous state at ambient pressure and temperature.

[0052] In some embodiments, in the electrolyte of the present application, the molecular weight of the first additive is 50 g / mol to 200 g / mol. A low-boiling point sulfur-containing compound having a molecular weight within this range has a strong diffusion ability and a high diffusion rate in the electrolyte.

[0053] In some embodiments, in the electrolyte of the present application, the mass fraction W2 of the second additive in the electrolyte is 0.01%-5%, optionally 0.1%-2%, based on the total weight of the electrolyte. Thus, by limiting the content of the second additive, the composition of the electrolyte can be further optimized, which is favorable for forming a positive electrode whose surface is covered with a passivation film after the first charge of the battery, thereby avoiding the side reaction of a small amount of alkyl sodium carbonate dissolved in the electrolyte on the positive electrode, stabilizing the positive electrode potential, and thereby further improving the self-discharge and cycle performance of the sodium ion secondary battery. When the content of the second additive in the electrolyte is less than 0.01%, the content is too small, so that the passivation film formed on the electrolyte / positive electrode interface is not enough to prevent the alkyl sodium carbonate in the electrolyte from generating an oxidation reaction on the positive electrode, and the active sodium is incorporated into the positive electrode material, causing a reduction in the positive electrode potential, and the self-discharge of the battery becomes obvious. If the content of the second additive in the electrolyte is too high, that is, greater than 5%, the oxidative decomposition products of the second additive will accumulate on the positive electrode, increasing the membrane resistance at the interface between the positive electrode and the electrolyte, thereby deteriorating the battery performance.

[0054] In some embodiments, in the electrolyte of the present application, the sum of the mass fraction W1 of the first additive in the electrolyte and the mass fraction W2 of the second additive in the electrolyte is 0.5% to 10.5%, optionally 1% to 10%, optionally 1% to 6%, and further optionally 1% to 3%. Here, the ratio of the mass fraction W1 of the first additive in the electrolyte and the mass fraction W2 of the second additive in the electrolyte is 1:(0.01-100), optionally 1:(0.1-10), and further optionally 1:(0.2-5). This further improves the self-discharge rate of the sodium ion secondary battery.

[0055] When W1+W2<0.5%, the negative electrode self-discharge or positive electrode self-discharge is too large, and the battery self-discharge phenomenon is obvious; when W1+W2>10.5%, the interface passivation film between the positive and negative electrodes is too thick, the interface impedance is too large, and the power performance of the battery is poor.

[0056] Optionally, in the electrolyte of the present application, the sum of the first additive W1 and the second additive W2 is 1.1% to 3%, and the ratio of the first additive W1 to the second additive W2 is within the range of 1: (0.5-100), or within the range of 1: (1-10), and also optionally within the range of 1: (0.01-2), and further optionally within the range of 1: (0.1-2), and the sodium ion secondary battery has both low DC internal resistance and self-discharge rate, as shown in Table 1. By further limiting the range, the composition of the electrolyte can be further optimized, and the electrolyte can be promoted to form a stable and more conductive positive and negative electrode interface passivation film on the surface of the positive and negative electrodes, so that the battery can have significantly improved self-discharge rate and cycle performance, as well as good power performance.

[0057] In some embodiments, in the electrolyte solutions of the present application, the electrolyte sodium salt is NaPF 6 , NaBF 4 , NaN(SO 2 F) 2 (abbreviated as NaFSI), NaClO 4 , NaAsF 6 , NaB(C 2 O 4 ) 2 (abbreviated as NaBOB), NaBF 2 (C 2 O 4 ) (abbreviated as NaDFOB), NaN(SO 2 R F ) 2 and NaN(SO 2 F)(SO 2 R F ), where R F is C b F 2b+1 where b is an integer in the range of 1-10, optionally an integer in the range of 1-3, and further optionally R F -CF 3 , -C 2 F 5 or -CF 2 CF2 CF 3 and Optionally, the electrolyte sodium salt is NaPF 6 , NaN(SO 2 F) 2 , NaN(CF 3 SO 2 ) 2 , NaB(C 2 O 4 ) 2 and NaBF 2 (C 2 O 4 ) , Further optionally, the electrolyte sodium salt is NaPF 6 , NaN(SO 2 F) 2 and NaBF 2 (C 2 O 4 ) is one or more selected from.

[0058] In some embodiments, the mass fraction of the electrolyte in the electrolyte solution is 3% to 30%, optionally 5% to 15%.

[0059] In some embodiments, in the electrolyte of the present application, the organic solvent comprises a carbonate-based organic solvent, and optionally, the organic solvent is a carbonate-based organic solvent, which is one or more selected from ethylene carbonate, propylene carbonate, ethyl methyl carbonate, diethyl carbonate, dimethyl carbonate, dipropyl carbonate, methyl propyl carbonate, ethyl propyl carbonate, and butylene carbonate.

[0060] In some embodiments, the weight percentage of the organic solvent in the electrolyte is 50% to 97%, optionally 60% to 90%.

[0061] In some embodiments, the organic solvent further comprises one or more of methyl formate, methyl acetate, ethyl acetate, propyl acetate, methyl propionate, ethyl propionate, propyl propionate, methyl butyrate, ethyl butyrate, 1,4-butyrolactone, sulfolane, dimethyl sulfone, ethyl methyl sulfone, diethyl sulfone, 1,3-dioxycyclopentane, tetrahydrofuran, ethylene glycol dimethyl ether, and acetonitrile, and the weight percentage of the organic solvent is 0.5% to 50%, optionally 3% to 30%, optionally 5% to 20%, and further optionally 8% to 15%.

[0062] By further limiting the carbonate organic solvent to the above range, the electrolyte sodium salt can be sufficiently dissociated, the conductivity of the electrolyte can be improved, and the ability to participate in film formation can be reduced to the maximum extent, thereby further improving the self-discharge of the battery.

[0063] In some embodiments, in the electrolyte of the present application, the sum of the mass fractions of the first, second and third additives in the electrolyte is 2% to 12%, optionally 2.1% to 7%.

[0064] In some embodiments, in the electrolyte of the present application, the mass fraction ratio of the first, second and third additives in the electrolyte is 1:(1-10):(0.01-10), optionally 1:(1-10):(0.1-5), and optionally 1:(1-10):(1-2).

[0065] In some embodiments, in the electrolyte of the present application, the sum of the mass fractions of the first, second and third additives in the electrolyte is 2.1% to 4%, and the mass fraction ratio of the first, second and third additives in the electrolyte is 1:(1-10):(0.1-2).Therefore, the sodium ion secondary battery achieves both good DC internal resistance and cycle capacity retention rate.

[0066] In some embodiments, the electrolyte of the present application further contains fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) as a third additive, and the mass fraction thereof in the electrolyte is 0.01% to 10%, preferably 0.1% to 5%.

[0067] This improves the toughness of the positive and negative electrode interface passivation film, improves the resistance of the interface passivation film to volume expansion and contraction that occurs during battery cycles, and further improves the cycle performance of the battery while maintaining good power performance. This is because, compared with the third additive fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC), the first and second additives of the present application react preferentially on the negative and positive electrodes to form stable positive and negative electrode interface passivation films, and the reaction ability of fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) at the positive and negative electrodes is small, so that the power performance of the battery is not deteriorated.

[0068] In some specific embodiments, the electrolyte comprises: a) a first additive having a mass fraction of 0.01% to 5%, optionally 0.1% to 2%; b) a second additive having a mass fraction of 0.01% to 5%, optionally 0.1% to 2%; c) an electrolyte sodium salt having a mass fraction of 3% to 30%, optionally 5% to 15%; d) a carbonate-based organic solvent having a mass fraction of 50% to 97%, optionally 60% to 90%, wherein the sum of the mass fractions of components a) and b) is 0.5% to 10.5%, optionally 1% to 10%, optionally 1% to 6%, and further optionally 1% to 3%, and the ratio of the mass fractions of components a) and b) is 1:(0.01-100), optionally 1:(0.1-10), and further optionally 1:(0.2-5); or The sum of the mass fractions of components a) and b) is 1.1% to 3%, and the mass fraction ratio of components a) and b) is 1:(0.5-100), optionally 1:(1-10), and optionally 1:(0.01-2).

[0069] In some specific embodiments, the electrolyte comprises: a) a first additive having a mass fraction of 0.01% to 5%, optionally 0.1% to 2%; b) a second additive having a mass fraction of 0.01% to 5%, optionally 0.1% to 2%; c) an electrolyte sodium salt having a mass fraction of 3% to 30%, optionally 5% to 15%; d) a carbonate-based organic solvent having a mass fraction of 50% to 97%, optionally 60% to 90%; e) a third additive having a mass fraction of 0.01% to 10%, preferably 0.1% to 5%, wherein the sum of the mass fractions of components a), b), and e) is between 2% and 12%, optionally between 2.1% and 7%, and the ratio of the mass fractions of components a), b), and e) is between 1:(1-10):(0.01-10), optionally between 1:(1-10):(0.1-5), and optionally between 1:(1-10):(1-2); or The sum of the mass fractions of components a), b), and e) is 2.1% to 4%, and the mass fraction ratio of components a), b), and e) is 1:(1-10):(0.1-2).

Related parameters and battery performance test

[0128] 1. Self-discharge test of sodium-ion secondary batteries At 25°C, the sodium ion secondary batteries obtained in the examples and comparative examples were left for 5 minutes, charged at a constant current of 1C to 4.2V, and then charged at a constant voltage until the current was 0.05C or less. They were then left for 5 minutes, and then discharged at a constant current of 0.1C to 3.7V. After leaving the batteries for 24 hours, the voltage V1 was tested, and after leaving the batteries for 48 hours, the voltage V2 was tested. The self-discharge rate K of the battery core is (V1-V2) / 48.

[0129] The sodium ion secondary batteries of Examples 1-17 and Comparative Examples 1-6 were tested according to the above procedure. See Table 1 for specific values.

[0130] 2. Room temperature cycle performance test of sodium ion secondary batteries At 25°C, the sodium ion secondary batteries produced in the examples and comparative examples were left for 5 minutes, charged at a constant current of 1C to 4.2V, then charged at a constant voltage until the current was 0.05C or less, left for 5 minutes, and discharged at a constant current of 1C to 2.0V, which constitutes one charge-discharge cycle, and the discharge capacity of this cycle was the discharge capacity of the first cycle of the sodium ion secondary battery. The sodium ion secondary batteries were subjected to 800 cycles of charge-discharge testing using the above method, and the discharge capacity of each cycle was recorded.

[0131] Capacity retention rate (%) of a sodium ion secondary battery after 800 cycles at 25°C and 1C / 1C = discharge capacity at 800th cycle / discharge capacity at 1st cycle x 100%.

[0132] According to the above procedure, the sodium ion secondary batteries of Examples 3, 18-23 and Comparative Example 7 were tested, and the specific values ​​are shown in Table 1.

[0133] 3. Direct current internal resistance (DCR) test for sodium ion secondary batteries At 25°C, the sodium ion secondary battery was left for 5 minutes, charged at a constant current of 1C up to 4.2V, and then charged at a constant voltage until the current fell to 0.05C or less, at which point the battery's state of charge (SOC) was 100%. It was then left for 5 minutes, and further discharged at a constant current of 1C, adjusting the state of charge (SOC) of the sodium ion secondary battery to 50%.

[0134] A sodium ion secondary battery at 50% SOC was left for 10 minutes and then discharged at a constant current of 4 C for 30 seconds. The voltage U1 in the last second after leaving the battery, the voltage U2 in the last second after constant current discharge at 4 C, and the current I after constant current discharge at 4 C were recorded.

[0135] The DC internal resistance of a sodium ion secondary battery discharged at a constant current of 4C for 30 seconds at 25°C and 50% SOC is (U2-U1) / I.

[0136] The sodium ion secondary batteries of the examples and comparative examples were tested according to the above process. See Tables 1 and 2 for specific values.

[0137] In Tables 1 and 2, the mass fraction of the first additive in the electrolyte is W1, and the mass fraction of the second additive in the electrolyte is W2, based on the total weight of the electrolyte. Here, the symbol " / " in the tables indicates that the substance is not present in the electrolyte and that the mass fraction is 0.

[0138] [Table 1] JPEG2025515804000005.jpg190170

[0139] As can be seen from Table 1, compared with Comparative Examples 1-6, here, Comparative Examples 2 and 3 used common sulfur-containing compounds 1,3-propane sultone (PS) and vinyl sulfate (DTD), and Comparative Examples 4-6 used a single additive (a low-boiling point sulfur-containing compound (sulfur dioxide), an oxalate-containing salt, and an oxalic acid ester), the sodium ion secondary batteries corresponding to the examples of the present application contained electrolytes of a first additive with a mass fraction of 0.01% to 5% and a second additive with a mass fraction of 0.01% to 5%, all of which had good DC internal resistance and obviously improved self-discharge rates.

[0140] As can be seen by comparing Examples 1-17 of the present invention, the sum of the first additive W1 and the second additive W2 is 1.1%-3%, and the ratio of the first additive W1 to the second additive W2 is within the range of 1:(0.5-100), or within the range of 1:(1-10), and optionally within the range of 1:(0.01-2), and further optionally within the range of 1:(0.1-2), the sodium ion secondary battery has both low DC internal resistance and low self-discharge rate. However, when the content of the first additive or the second additive is small (as shown in Examples 1 and 6), the self-discharge rate is large. When the content of the first additive or the second additive is large (as shown in Example 11), the film formed at the interface between the positive electrode and the negative electrode is too thick, so the DC internal resistance is large.

[0141] [Table 2]

[0142] As can be seen from Table 2, compared with Comparative Example 7 (electrolyte not containing the third additive, fluoroethylene carbonate), when the electrolyte contains the first and second additives, the cycle capacity retention rate of the sodium ion secondary battery is improved (Example 3), and when the electrolyte contains the first, second and third additives (fluoroethylene carbonate), the cycle performance of the sodium ion secondary battery is significantly improved (e.g., Examples 18 to 23), and the cycle capacity retention rate can reach 93%.
