Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of all-solid-state lithium battery materials, and more particularly to acid chloride solid electrolytes, methods for producing the same, and applications thereof. [Background technology]
[0002] As a next-generation energy storage technology, the application of all-solid-state lithium batteries is expected to solve the safety and energy density problems inherent in conventional lithium-ion batteries. Currently, no single solid electrolyte exists that meets all the requirements necessary for commercialization, including high ionic conductivity, excellent mechanical deformability, and cost-effectiveness. Due to the lack of these crucial properties, inorganic solid electrolytes reported to date suffer from challenges such as low ion transport efficiency, poor contact at electrode interfaces, and high manufacturing costs, which significantly hinder the practical application of all-solid-state lithium batteries.
[0003] Unlike conventional lithium-ion batteries, liquid electrolytes can easily penetrate the electrodes and provide sufficient ionic conductivity, but solid-state batteries must build an ion percolation network within the electrodes by relying on solid-state contact between electrolyte particles. To form good solid-state contact under pressure with commercially available positive electrode active material particles such as brittle high-nickel ternary oxides or lithium iron phosphate, the solid electrolyte needs to have the lowest possible Young's modulus. However, as brittle materials, the Young's modulus of oxide electrolytes generally exceeds 100 GPa (for example, Li 0.33 La 0.56 TiO3:~200GPa;Li7La3Zr2O 12 :~156GPa;Li 1.5 Al 0.5 Ge 1.5 P3O 12 (~115 GPa), this requirement cannot be met. In contrast, sulfides and chlorides have some machinability, but their mechanical properties are still not sufficient. For example, typical sulfide electrolytes Li6PS5Cl and Li 10 GeP2S12 The Young's moduli are 25.2 GPa and 26.7 GPa respectively, and the Young's moduli of typical chloride electrolytes Li3YCl6, Li2ZrCl6 and Li3InCl6 are 45.75 GPa, 22.5 GPa and 19.8 GPa respectively. However, in order to achieve good solid-solid contact, the solid electrolyte needs to have a Young's modulus of 10 GPa or less (Non-Patent Document 1: ACS Appl. Energy Mater. 2023, 6, 9615-9623). In addition to an extremely low Young's modulus, the solid electrolyte also needs to have a sufficiently high ionic conductivity (higher than 1 mS·cm at 25 °C), and expensive compounds such as Li2S and rare earth chlorides cannot be used as raw materials (otherwise, high costs will prevent commercialization). However, currently, inorganic solid electrolytes that simultaneously meet the above requirements, especially those with a Young's modulus of less than 10 GPa, are extremely rare. -1 -1
[0004] Therefore, it is extremely important to provide an oxychloride solid electrolyte with an extremely low Young's modulus, high ionic conductivity and low cost.
