Note that the drawings and the following description are provided for the purpose of enabling those skilled in the art to fully understand the present application and are not intended to limit the theme described in the claims.

[0058] The "range" disclosed in this application can be limited in the form of a lower limit and an upper limit. When a predetermined range is limited by selecting one lower limit and one upper limit, the selected lower limit and upper limit define the boundaries of a specific range. The range thus limited may or may not include the end values, and either one of the end values may or may not be independently included, and they may be combined in any way, that is, one range may be formed by combining any lower limit with any upper limit. For example, when ranges such as 60 - 120 and 80 - 110 are listed for a specific parameter, it should be understood that ranges of 60 - 110 and 80 - 120 are also envisioned. In addition, when the minimum range values 1 and 2 are listed and the maximum range values 3, 4, and 5 are further listed, ranges of 1 - 3, 1 - 4, 1 - 5, 2 - 3, 2 - 4, and 2 - 5 are all possible.

For example, the numerical range "0 - 5" means that all real numbers between "0 - 5" are listed in this specification, and "0 - 5" is merely an abbreviated expression of the combination of these numerical values. Also, when a certain parameter is expressed as an integer greater than or equal to 2, it corresponds to listing that the parameter is an integer such as 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, etc. For example, when a certain parameter is expressed as an integer selected from "2 - 10", it corresponds to listing the integers 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10.

It is explicitly or implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described in this specification can be combined with other embodiments. The "implementation forms" mentioned in this specification may be understood in the same way.

[0062] As can be understood by those skilled in the art, in the method of each implementation form or embodiment, the described order of each step does not constitute any limitation to the implementation process meaning a strict execution order, and the detailed execution order of each step should be determined by their functions and possible internal logic. Unless otherwise specified, all steps of this application may be performed in sequence or randomly, preferably in sequence. For example, the fact that the method includes steps (a) and (b) means that the method may include steps (a) and (b) performed in sequence, or steps (b) and (a) performed in sequence.

[0065] The weights described in the specification of the embodiments of this application may be weight units well-known in the chemical industry field such as μg, mg, g, kg, etc.

[0066] At present, with the great development of secondary batteries, the requirements for the comprehensive performance of secondary batteries, such as rapid charging performance, cycle performance, and storage performance, are also increasing further. The electrolyte, which is an important component of secondary batteries, plays an irreplaceable role in improving the rapid charging performance, cycle performance, and storage performance of secondary batteries. Therefore, how to provide an electrolyte that enables secondary batteries to have excellent rapid charging performance, cycle performance, and storage performance is one of the most concerned directions for those skilled in the art. In this regard, the present application provides an electrolyte containing a carboxylic acid ester-based solvent, a first additive, and a second additive in specific contents, enabling secondary batteries to have excellent rapid charging performance, cycle performance, and storage performance, and improving the comprehensive performance of secondary batteries.

[0067] The first aspect of the present application provides an electrolyte for a lithium secondary battery, which includes an organic solvent, and a first additive, a second additive, and an electrolyte salt dissolved in the organic solvent.

[0068] The organic solvent includes a carboxylic acid ester-based solvent, and based on the total mass of the organic solvent, the mass percentage W1 of the carboxylic acid ester-based solvent is 20% - 80%.

[0069] The first additive includes one or more of monofluorophosphate, difluorophosphate, tetrafluoroborate, fluorosulfonate, oxalatoborate salt, malonic acid borate salt, oxalatophosphate salt, and (malonato)phosphate salt.

[0070] The second additive includes one or more of the compounds shown in the following Formula I and Formula II. [Formula I] JPEG2025521103000010.jpg30130

[0071] In Formula I, R1 and R2 are each independently selected from a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a C1 - C6 alkyl group, a C1 - C6 halogenated alkyl group, a C1 - C6 alkoxy group, a C2 - C6 alkenyl group, or a C2 - C6 alkynyl group. [Formula II] JPEG2025521103000011.jpg30130

[0072] In Formula II, R3, R4, R5, and R6 are each independently selected from a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a C1-C6 alkyl group, a C1-C6 halogenated alkyl group, a C1-C6 alkoxy group, a C2-C6 alkenyl group, or a C2-C6 alkynyl group, and R3, R4, R5, and R6 do not simultaneously represent a hydrogen atom.

[0073] However, the mass percentages of the first additive and the second additive in the electrolyte are W2 and W3, respectively, and 0.035 ≤ (W2 + W3) / W1 ≤ 0.15.

[0074] This application employs a carboxylic acid ester solvent in a specific content in the organic solvent of the electrolyte for a lithium secondary battery, and introduces the first additive and the second additive in specific contents and types. By blending the above components with each other in specific contents, the secondary battery has excellent rapid charging performance, cycle performance, and storage performance, and can significantly improve the comprehensive performance of the secondary battery.

[0075] Compared with carbonate solvents, carboxylic acid ester solvents have a lower freezing point and a smaller viscosity, can significantly improve the conductivity of the electrolyte, and can improve the rapid charging performance of the secondary battery. However, carboxylic acid ester solvents are prone to obtaining electrons at the negative electrode of the battery, generating a series of reduction gases such as CH4 and H2, leading to an increase in the internal pressure of the cell. After long-term cyclic use, carboxylic acid ester solvents cause serious cell swelling problems, especially at high temperatures, extrude the electrolyte between the tabs, reduce the ion conduction ability inside the battery, cause deterioration of the cycle performance and storage performance of the battery, and affect the service life of the battery.

[0076] In contrast, in the present application, by introducing a first additive and a second additive into the electrolyte for a lithium secondary battery in specific types and usage amounts, during the charging process of the secondary battery, the first additive and the second additive preferentially form an organic-inorganic composite SEI film on the surface of the negative electrode, preventing the carboxylic acid ester-based solvent from contacting the interface of the negative electrode and reducing the generation of gas. And when the mass percentage W1 of the carboxylic acid ester-based solvent in the organic solvent, the mass percentage W2 of the first additive, and the mass percentage W3 of the second additive are within the above ranges, the rapid charging performance, cycle performance, and storage performance of the secondary battery are all excellent.

[0077] As can be understood, the mass percentage W1 of the carboxylic acid ester-based solvent in the organic solvent may be, but is not limited to, 20%, 22%, 25%, 28%, 30%, 32%, 35%, 38%, 40%, 42%, 45%, 48%, 50%, 52%, 55%, 58%, 60%, 62%, 65%, 68%, 70%, 72%, 75%, 78%, 80%. The value of (W2 + W3) / W1 may be, but is not limited to, 0.035, 0.04, 0.045, 0.05, 0.055, 0.06, 0.065, 0.07, 0.075, 0.08, 0.085, 0.09, 0.095, 0.10, 0.11, 0.12, 0.13, 0.14, 0.15.

[0078] In some embodiments, in formula I, R1 and R2 are each independently selected from a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a C1-C4 alkyl group, a C1-C4 halogenated alkyl group, a C1-C4 alkoxy group, a C2-C4 alkenyl group, or a C2-C4 alkynyl group.

[0079] In some embodiments, in formula II, R3, R4, R5, and R6 are each independently selected from a hydrogen atom, a halogen atom, a C1-C4 alkyl group, a C1-C4 halogenated alkyl group, a C1-C4 alkoxy group, a C2-C4 alkenyl group, or a C2-C4 alkynyl group.

[0080] In some embodiments, based on the total mass of the organic solvent, the mass percentage W1 of the carboxylic acid ester solvent is 30% to 70%. By controlling the mass percentage W1 of the carboxylic acid ester solvent in the organic solvent within the above range, the rapid charging performance of the secondary battery can be further improved, and the secondary battery still has good cycle performance and storage performance.

[0081] In some embodiments, based on the total mass of the organic solvent, the mass percentage W1 of the carboxylic acid ester solvent is 40% to 60%. In this way, the overall performance of the secondary battery can be further improved.

[0082] In some embodiments, the mass percentage W1 of the carboxylic acid ester solvent in the organic solvent, the mass percentage W2 of the first additive in the electrolyte, and the mass percentage W3 of the second additive satisfy 0.04 ≦ (W2 + W3) / W1 ≦ 0.10. In this way, the rapid charging performance of the secondary battery can be further improved, and the secondary battery still has good cycle performance and storage performance.

[0083] In some embodiments, the mass percentage W1 of the carboxylic acid ester solvent in the organic solvent, the mass percentage W2 of the first additive in the electrolyte, and the mass percentage W3 of the second additive satisfy 0.05 ≦ (W2 + W3) / W1 ≦ 0.075. In this way, the overall performance of the secondary battery can be further improved.

[0234] Performance Test 1) Rapid Charging Performance Test At 25 °C, a charge-discharge test was performed on the battery after the capacity grading at 2.5 V to 3.65 V. The test steps were as follows. First, it was charged at a constant current of 3 C until SOC30%, then charged at a constant current of 2 C until SOC60%, then charged at a constant current of 1 C and constant voltage until SOC80%, with a cut-off current of 0.01 C, left to stand for 5 minutes, discharged at a constant current of 1 C until 2.0 V, and left to stand for 5 minutes. The time taken to charge the battery to SOC80% was measured.

[0235] 2) Cycle performance test At 45 °C, the secondary battery was charged at a constant current of 0.5 C until 3.65 V, and then charged at a constant voltage of 3.65 V until the current was less than 0.05 C, and then the secondary battery was discharged at a constant current of 0.5 C until 2.5 V. This was one charge-discharge process (i.e., 1 cycle). Charging and discharging were repeated in this way, and the number of cycles when the capacity retention rate was 80% was recorded.

[0236] 3) Storage performance test The lithium-ion secondary battery was charged at a constant current of 0.33 C until 3.65 V, and then charged at a constant voltage of 3.65 V until the current reached 0.05 C, fully charging the secondary battery. The volume of the battery was tested by the water replacement method, and this volume was taken as the volume before storage. Then, the secondary battery was placed at 60 °C for 30 days of storage. After the storage was completed, the secondary battery was placed in an environment of 25 °C, and the volume of the battery was tested by the water replacement method, and this volume was taken as the volume after storage. The volume expansion rate of the battery was calculated according to the following formula.

[0239] The negative electrode active material was polished into a powder microelectrode, and the powder microelectrode was connected to an electrochemical station for coulometric titration. However, a pulse current of 20 μA, a titration time of 1 h (hour), an interval of 4 h (in addition, in order to compare the effects of the pulse current and time, parallel experiments may be carried out at 10 μA and 10 minutes), and a GITT curve was obtained. The lithium ion diffusion coefficient was calculated using the following formula.

[0240] JPEG2025521103000022.jpg18132

[0241] However, D is the lithium ion diffusion coefficient, I0 is the applied current of 20 μA, V m is the molar volume of the active material, F is the Faraday constant, A is the electrode surface area, dE / dx is the slope of the coulometric titration curve, that is, the slope at a specific concentration on the open circuit potential vs. Li concentration curve of the electrode, and dE / d(t 1 / 2 ) is the slope of the polarization voltage vs. t 1 / 2 curve. Specifically, references such as Xie et al., Solid State Ionics, 2007, 178: 1218-1224; Yang et al., Electrochimica Acta, 2012, 66: 88-93 can be referred to.

[0242] 5) Volume average particle size test "Dv50" represents the particle size until the volume accumulates to 50% when measured from the small particle size in the volume-based particle size distribution of the material. Usually, Dv50 may be tested by methods and instruments well-known in this field. For example, it can be measured by a laser diffraction particle size distribution analyzer (such as Malvern Mastersizer 3000).

[0243] 6) BET specific surface area test The test method referred to the standard GB / T19587-2004 "Measurement of Specific Surface Area of Solid Substances by Gas Adsorption BET Method". 8 g to 15 g of the sample to be measured was taken and placed in a sample tube, and the initial mass of the sample to be measured was recorded. The weighed sample to be measured was placed into the instrument NOVA2000e. Then, degassing was started, and after heating the sample to be measured to 200 °C, it was held for 2 h. And the mass of the sample to be measured after degassing was recorded. Then, the sample to be measured after degassing was placed into the instrument again, and liquid nitrogen was injected to conduct a BET test.

[0244] The rapid charging performance, cycle performance, and storage performance of the secondary batteries in each of the above examples and comparative examples were tested, and the specific test results are shown in Tables 1 to 9.

[0257] Compared with Example 5, the amount of the first additive lithium difluorophosphate in Example 11 increases, and the storage performance of the secondary battery is significantly improved. Compared with Example 5, the amount of the second additive vinylene carbonate in Example 15 increases, and the storage performance of the secondary battery is also significantly improved.
