Description

[Technical field]

[0001] This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202111321081.1, filed on November 9, 2021, entitled "Secondary Battery, Method for Manufacturing a Secondary Battery, Battery Module, Battery Pack, and Electrical Device," which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.

[0002] The present application relates to the field of battery technology, and in particular to a secondary battery, a method for manufacturing a secondary battery, a battery module, a battery pack, and an electric device. [Background technology]

[0003] Secondary batteries are charged and discharged by repeatedly inserting and removing lithium ions between the positive and negative electrodes, and have excellent characteristics such as high energy density, long cycle life, no pollution, and no memory effect. Therefore, secondary batteries, as clean energy, have been widely used in many fields such as electronic products, power storage systems such as hydroelectric, thermal, wind and solar power plants, power tools, electric bicycles, electric motorcycles, electric vehicles, military equipment, aerospace, etc., in order to adapt to the sustainable development strategy of the environment and energy. Cobalt is an important component element of the positive electrode active material of secondary batteries, but the content of cobalt in the earth's crust is relatively low, and it is difficult and expensive to mine, so low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active materials have become an inevitable development trend. However, cobalt contributes greatly to the lithium ion diffusion rate of the positive electrode active material, and low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active materials will reduce the lithium ion diffusion rate, affecting the cycle life of secondary batteries. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present application aims to provide a secondary battery, a method for manufacturing a secondary battery, a battery module, a battery pack, and an electric device for increasing the lithium ion diffusion rate of a low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material and improving the cycle performance of the secondary battery.

[0005] The first aspect of the present application provides a secondary battery including an electrolytic solution and a positive electrode sheet. The positive electrode sheet has a molecular formula of Li a Ni b Co c M1 d M2 e O f A g (where M1 is one or two selected from Mn and Al, M2 is one or more selected from Si, Ti, Mo, V, Ge, Se, Zr, Nb, Ru, Pd, Sb, Ce, Te and W, A is one or more selected from F, N, P and S, 0.8 ≦ a ≦ 1.2, 0 < b < 0.98, 0 ≦ c < 0.1, 0 < d < 0.5, 0 ≦ e ≦ 0.5, 0 ≦ f ≦ 2, 0 ≦ g ≦ 2, b + c + d + e = 1, f + g = 2). The electrolytic solution includes a phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound, and the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound includes one or more of lithium difluorophosphate, diethyl (2-cyanoethyl) phosphonate, tripropyl phosphoric anhydride, diethyl acetyl phosphate, and triphenyl phosphate. Based on the total mass of the electrolytic solution, the mass percentage content of the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound is x%, and 0 < x ≦ 1.0. The secondary battery satisfies c + x / 10 ≧ 0.10.

[0006] After extensive research, the inventors have found that the cobalt content c of the low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material is closely related to the mass percent content x% of the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound in the electrolyte. When the cobalt content c of the low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material and the mass percent content x% of the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound in the electrolyte satisfy c+x / 10≧0.10, the O atom of the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound can be sufficiently bonded to the lithium ion on the surface of the low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material, the lithium ion on the surface of the low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material can be better stabilized, and excessive lithium desorption from the surface of the low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material can be avoided. Therefore, the secondary battery can have a significantly improved cycle performance and at the same time a good high-temperature storage performance.

[0007] When c+x / 10<0.10, the content of the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound in the electrolyte is insufficient to form a protective film with excellent performance on the surface of the low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material, and the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound cannot sufficiently stabilize the lithium ions on the surface of the low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material, and cannot suppress excessive lithium desorption from the surface of the low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material, so that it is difficult for the secondary battery to have significantly improved cycle performance.

[0008] In any embodiment of the present application, the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound includes at least lithium difluorophosphate, which has two separate P=O double bonds in its molecular structure, and can sufficiently bind to the lithium ions on the surface of the low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material, better stabilize the lithium ions on the surface of the low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material, and avoid excessive lithium desorption from the surface of the low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material.

After adding fluorosulfonylimide lithium salt to the electrolyte, the rate performance and low-temperature performance of secondary batteries can be greatly improved.

[0015] In any embodiment of the present application, the secondary battery further satisfies 0.5≦y / x≦2.0. Optionally, 0.5≦y / x≦1.0. In this case, the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound and the fluoro Ethylene CarbonateThe synergistic effect can be fully exerted, not only increasing the gas generation amount of the secondary battery, but also further improving the cycle performance and energy density of the secondary battery.

[0016] In any embodiment of the present application, the secondary battery further satisfies 0.5 ≦ x / z ≦ 2.0. Optionally, 0.5 ≦ x / z ≦ 1.5. In this case, the synergistic effect between the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound and the lithium fluorosulfonylimide salt can be fully exerted, not only preventing the deterioration of the cycle performance of the secondary battery, but also further improving the rate performance and low-temperature performance of the secondary battery.

[0017] In any embodiment of the present application, the secondary battery further simultaneously satisfies 0.5 ≦ y / x ≦ 2.0 and 0.5 ≦ x / z ≦ 2.0. Optionally, the secondary battery further simultaneously satisfies 0.5 ≦ y / x ≦ 2.0, 0.5 ≦ x / z ≦ 2.0 and 0.25 ≦ y / z ≦ 2.0. In this case, the secondary battery simultaneously has significantly improved cycle performance, storage performance, rate performance and low-temperature performance.

Specifically, any of the following conditions also satisfy the condition "A or B": A is true (or exists) and B is false (or does not exist), A is false (or does not exist) and B is true (or exists), or A and B are true (or exist).

[0037] A secondary battery, also called a rechargeable battery or storage battery, refers to a battery that can be used continuously after being discharged by recharging it to activate the active material. A secondary battery usually includes a positive electrode sheet, a negative electrode sheet, a separator, and an electrolyte. During the charge and discharge process of a secondary battery, lithium ions are repeatedly inserted and removed between the positive electrode sheet and the negative electrode sheet. The separator is placed between the positive electrode sheet and the negative electrode sheet, and mainly serves to prevent short circuits between the positive and negative electrodes and allows the passage of ions. The electrolyte serves to conduct ions between the positive and negative electrode sheets.

[0038] When the secondary battery is charged, lithium ions escape preferentially from the surface of the positive electrode active material, and the lithium ions in the bulk phase of the positive electrode active material are timely captured on the surface. When the cobalt content of the positive electrode active material is relatively high, the lithium ions in the bulk phase of the positive electrode active material can be timely captured on the surface of the positive electrode active material. However, when the cobalt content of the positive electrode active material is relatively low, the lithium ions in the bulk phase of the positive electrode active material cannot be captured on the surface of the positive electrode active material in time, and the lithium ions on the surface also escape, resulting in excessive lithium desorption on the surface of the positive electrode active material, which affects the crystal structure of the positive electrode active material (for example, the irreversible distortion and increase in lattice defects of the positive electrode active material), and reduces the cycle performance of the secondary battery. Therefore, increasing the lithium ion diffusion rate of low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active materials has important practical significance.

[0039] As a result of extensive research, the inventors present a low-cobalt or cobalt-free secondary battery with significantly improved lithium ion diffusion rate and cycle performance.

[0040] A first aspect of the present embodiment provides a secondary battery including an electrolyte and a positive electrode sheet. The positive electrode sheet has a molecular formula of Li a Ni b Co c M1 d M2 e O f A g(M1 is one or two selected from Mn and Al, M2 is one or more selected from Si, Ti, Mo, V, Ge, Se, Zr, Nb, Ru, Pd, Sb, Ce, Te and W, A is one or more selected from F, N, P and S, 0.8 ≦ a ≦ 1.2, 0 < b < 0.98, 0 ≦ c < 0.1, 0 < d < 0.5, 0 ≦ e ≦ 0.5, 0 ≦ f ≦ 2, 0 ≦ g ≦ 2, b + c + d + e = 1, f + g = 2.) It contains a layered material. The electrolytic solution contains a phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound, and the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound contains one or more of lithium difluorophosphate, diethyl (2-cyanoethyl) phosphonate, tripropyl phosphoric anhydride, diethyl acetyl phosphate, and triphenyl phosphate. Based on the total mass of the electrolytic solution, the mass percentage content of the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound is x%, and 0 < x ≦ 1.0. The secondary battery satisfies c + x / 10 ≧ 0.10.)

[0041] Researchers have worked to increase the lithium ion diffusion rate of low cobalt or cobalt-free cathode active materials, but no good solutions have been found so far.

[0042] The inventors of the present application unexpectedly discovered that after adding a phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound (such as one or more of lithium difluorophosphate, diethyl (2-cyanoethyl) phosphonate, tripropyl phosphate anhydride, acetyl diethyl phosphate, and triphenyl phosphate) to the electrolyte, the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound forms a protective film on the surface of the positive electrode active material. In addition, the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound has P=O, and the lone pair of O has low binding energy, which can bond with the lithium ions on the surface of the positive electrode active material to stabilize the lithium ions on the surface of the positive electrode active material. When charging the secondary battery, most of the lithium ions on the surface of the positive electrode active material are fixed on the surface of the positive electrode active material by the P=O of the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound and are difficult to escape, so that the lithium ions in the bulk phase of the positive electrode active material have enough time to diffuse to the surface of the positive electrode active material and capture the lithium ions on the surface of the positive electrode active material, and avoid the behavior of the structural, chemical or electrochemical properties of the positive electrode active material becoming unstable, such as irreversible distortion of the positive electrode active material or an increase in lattice defects caused by excessive lithium desorption on the surface of the positive electrode active material. Therefore, after adding the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound to the electrolyte, the surface of the low cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material can be stabilized, excessive lithium desorption on the surface of the low cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material can be avoided, and the destruction of the crystal structure of the low cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material can be avoided, so that the secondary battery can have good cycle performance.

[0043] The phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound has poor solubility in the electrolyte, and if the amount added is too large, it deteriorates the viscosity of the electrolyte, thereby lowering the ionic conductivity of the electrolyte to a certain extent. Therefore, the amount of the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound added must be appropriate.

[0044] After extensive research, the inventors have found that the cobalt content c of the low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material is closely related to the mass percent content x% of the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound in the electrolyte. When the cobalt content c of the low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material and the mass percent content x% of the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound in the electrolyte satisfy c+x / 10≧0.10, the O atoms of the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound can be sufficiently bonded to the lithium ions on the surface of the low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material, the lithium ions on the surface of the low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material can be better stabilized, and excessive lithium desorption from the surface of the low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material can be avoided. Therefore, the secondary battery can have good high-temperature storage performance while having significantly improved cycle performance. In some embodiments, c+x / 10 may be ≧0.10, ≧0.11, ≧0.12, ≧0.13, ≧0.14, ≧0.15, ≧0.16, ≧0.17, ≧0.18, or ≧0.19.

[0045] When c+x / 10<0.10, the content of the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound in the electrolyte is insufficient to form a protective film with excellent performance on the surface of the low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material, and the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound cannot sufficiently stabilize the lithium ions on the surface of the low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material and inhibit excessive lithium desorption from the surface of the low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material, so that the secondary battery is difficult to have significantly improved cycle performance.

[0046] In some embodiments, the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound includes at least lithium difluorophosphate, whose molecular structure has two separate P=O double bonds, so that it can sufficiently bind with the lithium ions on the surface of the low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material, better stabilize the lithium ions on the surface of the low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material, and avoid excessive lithium desorption from the surface of the low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material.

[0047] In some embodiments, the molecular formula is Li a Ni b Co c M1 d M2 e O f A g The layered material, wherein X is an integer of 1 to 5, can be optionally modified by doping with M2 cations, by doping with A anions, or by simultaneously doping with M2 cations and A anions, and the doped layered material has a more stable crystal structure and can further improve the electrochemical performance, such as cycle performance, rate performance, etc., of the secondary battery.

[0048] In some embodiments, A is selected from F. After being modified by F doping, Li a Ni b Co c M1 d M2 e O f The Ag structure is more stable, allowing the secondary battery to have better cycle performance and rate performance.

[0049] In some embodiments, M1 is selected from Mn.

[0051] In some embodiments, M1 is selected from the combination of Mn and Al. The molar ratio of Mn and Al is not particularly limited and may be selected according to actual needs.

[0053] In some embodiments, c = 0.

[0054] In some embodiments, 0 < c < 0.1. Optionally, 0 < c ≤ 0.09, 0 < c ≤ 0.08, 0 < c ≤ 0.07, 0 < c ≤ 0.06, 0 < c ≤ 0.05, 0 < c ≤ 0.04, 0 < c ≤ 0.03, 0 < c ≤ 0.02, or 0 < c ≤ 0.01.

[0055] In some embodiments, 0 < d ≤ 0.45. Optionally, 0 < d ≤ 0.40, 0 < d ≤ 0.35, 0 < d ≤ 0.30, 0 < d ≤ 0.25, 0 < d ≤ 0.20, 0 < d ≤ 0.15, or 0 < d ≤ 0.10.

[0056] In some embodiments, e = 0.

[0057] In some embodiments, 0 < e ≤ 0.5. Optionally, 0 < e ≤ 0.45, 0 < e ≤ 0.40, 0 < e ≤ 0.35, 0 < e ≤ 0.30, 0 < e ≤ 0.25, 0 < e ≤ 0.20, 0 < e ≤ 0.15, 0 < e ≤ 0.10, or 0 < e ≤ 0.05.

[0058] In some embodiments, f = 2, g = 0.

[0059] In some embodiments, f = 0, g = 2.

[0060] In some embodiments, 0 < f < 2, 0 < g < 2, and f + g = 2.

[0063] In some embodiments, the electrolyte is a fluoro Ethylene Carbonate (FEC). The fluorochemicals are based on the total weight of the electrolyte. Ethylene CarbonateThe mass percentage content is y%, and 0 ≦ y ≦ 2.0. For example, y is 0, 0.10, 0.20, 0.50, 0.75, 1.0, 1.25, 1.50, 1.75, 2.0 or a range formed by any of the above numerical values. Optionally, 0 < y ≦ 2.0, 0 < y ≦ 1.75, 0 < y ≦ 1.5, 0 < y ≦ 1.25, 0 < y ≦ 1.0, 0 < y ≦ 0.75, or 0 < y ≦ 0.5.

[0064] In the case of a secondary battery, fluoro Ethylene Carbonate undergoes a reduction decomposition reaction at a relatively high potential and forms a solid electrolyte interface film (also abbreviated as SEI film) with a certain degree of flexibility on the surface of the negative electrode active material, and can suppress the reduction decomposition of the organic solvent at a relatively low potential and the embedding of the organic solvent into the negative electrode active material. Therefore, after adding fluoro Ethylene Carbonate to the electrolyte, the cycle performance of the secondary battery can be effectively improved. Also, fluoro Ethylene Carbonate can withstand high-voltage oxidation and is advantageous for matching with a high-voltage positive electrode active material, thus contributing to the improvement of the energy density of the secondary battery.

[0065] In some embodiments, the mass percentage content x% of the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound and the mass percentage content y% of fluoro Ethylene Carbonate further satisfy 0.5 ≦ y / x ≦ 2.0. Optionally, 0.5 ≦ y / x ≦ 1.9, 0.5 ≦ y / x ≦ 1.8, 0.5 ≦ y / x ≦ 1.7, 0.5 ≦ y / x ≦ 1.6, 0.5 ≦ y / x ≦ 1.5, 0.5 ≦ y / x ≦ 1.4, 0.5 ≦ y / x ≦ 1.3, 0.5 ≦ y / x ≦ 1.2, 0.5 ≦ y / x ≦ 1.1, or 0.5 ≦ y / x ≦ 1.0.

[0066] After adding fluoro Ethylene Carbonate to the electrolyte, the cycle performance of the secondary battery can be effectively improved, but fluoro Ethylene CarbonateWhen decomposing, it forms HF that destroys the structural stability of the positive electrode active material, increases the gas generation amount of the secondary battery, and deteriorates the storage performance of the secondary battery. The phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound can suppress the destruction of the positive electrode active material structure by HF as a stabilizer of the positive electrode active material, and the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound and fluoro Ethylene Carbonate The combined use of can fully exert the improving effect of fluoro on the cycle performance and energy density of the secondary battery Ethylene Carbonate Moreover, appropriately controlling the relationship between the mass percentage content x% of the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound and the mass percentage content y% of fluoro Ethylene Carbonate to satisfy 0.5 ≦ y / x ≦ 2.0 can not only fully exert the synergistic effect of the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound and fluoro Ethylene Carbonate but also not increase the gas generation amount of the secondary battery, and further improve the cycle performance and energy density of the secondary battery.

[0067] In some embodiments, the electrolyte further includes lithium fluorosulfonyl imide salt. Optionally, the molecular formula of the lithium fluorosulfonyl imide salt is LiN(SO2R1)(SO2R2) (R1 and R2 each independently represent F or C n F 2n+1 and n is an integer from 1 to 10.). As an example, the lithium fluorosulfonyl imide salt includes one or two of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (LiFSI) and lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI).

[0068] Based on the total mass of the electrolyte, the mass percentage content of the lithium fluorosulfonyl imide salt is z%, and 0 ≦ z ≦ 2.0. For example, z is 0, 0.10, 0.20, 0.50, 0.75, 1.0, 1.25, 1.50, 1.75, 2.0 or a range formed by any of the above numerical values. Optionally, 0 < z ≦ 2.0, 0 < z ≦ 1.75, 0 < z ≦ 1.5, 0 < z ≦ 1.25, 0 < z ≦ 1.0, 0 < z ≦ 0.75, or 0 < z ≦ 0.5.

[0069] Fluorosulfonylimide anions are -F or -C anions that have conjugated groups and strong electroabsorption properties. n F 2n+1 The anion is a weakly coordinated anion with N at the center, and the anion charge is highly delocalized, so that the interaction force between the anion and the lithium ion is weakened. Therefore, the fluorosulfonylimide lithium salt has a relatively low lattice energy and is easy to dissociate, which can increase the ionic conductivity of the electrolyte, reduce the viscosity of the electrolyte, and improve the rate performance and low temperature performance of the secondary battery. In addition, the fluorosulfonylimide lithium salt further has a relatively high thermal stability and a wider electrochemical window, and can form a LiF-rich SEI film on the surface of the negative electrode active material, which is thinner, has a lower impedance and a higher thermal stability, and can reduce the side reaction between the negative electrode active material and the electrolyte. Therefore, after adding the fluorosulfonylimide lithium salt to the electrolyte, the rate performance and low temperature performance of the secondary battery can be greatly improved.

[0070] In some embodiments, the weight percent content x% of the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound and the weight percent content z% of the fluorosulfonylimide lithium salt further satisfy 0.5≦x / z≦2.0, or optionally 0.5≦x / z≦1.9, 0.5≦x / z≦1.8, 0.5≦x / z≦1.7, 0.5≦x / z≦1.6, 0.5≦x / z≦1.5, 0.5≦x / z≦1.4, 0.5≦x / z≦1.3, 0.5≦x / z≦1.2, 0.5≦x / z≦1.1, or 0.5≦x / z≦1.0.

[0071] After adding fluorosulfonylimide lithium salt to the electrolyte, the rate performance and low temperature performance of the secondary battery can be improved, but fluorosulfonylimide lithium salt cannot withstand high pressure, corrodes the positive electrode current collector (e.g., aluminum foil) at a relatively high potential, increases the side reaction between the positive electrode active material and the electrolyte, and has a poor effect of forming a film on the surface of the positive electrode active material, which is likely to affect the cycle performance of the secondary battery. When a phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound and fluorosulfonylimide lithium salt are used in combination, the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound can act as a stabilizer for the positive electrode active material to form a protective film with excellent performance on the surface of the positive electrode active material and inhibit the side reaction between the positive electrode active material and the electrolyte. Therefore, the combined use of a phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound and fluorosulfonylimide lithium salt is advantageous in fully exerting the effect of fluorosulfonylimide lithium salt in improving the rate performance and low temperature performance of the secondary battery. In addition, by appropriately controlling the relationship between the mass percent content x% of the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound and the mass percent content z% of the fluorosulfonylimide lithium salt so as to satisfy 0.5≦x / z≦2.0, the synergistic effect of the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound and the fluorosulfonylimide lithium salt can be fully exerted, and not only the cycle performance of the secondary battery is not deteriorated, but also the rate performance and low temperature performance of the secondary battery can be further improved.

[0072] In some embodiments, the electrolyte is a fluoro Ethylene Carbonate and a fluorosulfonylimide lithium salt.

[0073] In some embodiments, the secondary battery further simultaneously satisfies 0.5≦y / x≦2.0 and 0.5≦x / z≦2.0. Furthermore, the secondary battery simultaneously satisfies 0.5≦y / x≦2.0, 0.5≦x / z≦2.0 and 0.25≦y / z≦2.0. In this case, the secondary battery simultaneously has significantly improved cycle performance, storage performance, rate performance and low temperature performance.

[0074] Fluoro Ethylene Carbonatecan effectively improve the cycle performance of the secondary battery, the fluorosulfonylimide lithium salt can improve the rate performance and low temperature performance of the secondary battery, and the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound can act as a stabilizer for the positive electrode active material to form a protective film with excellent performance on the surface of the positive electrode active material, stabilize the lithium ions on the surface of the low cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material, prevent excessive lithium desorption from the surface of the low cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material, inhibit the side reaction between the positive electrode active material and the electrolyte, and inhibit the destruction of the positive electrode active material structure caused by HF. Therefore, the fluoro Ethylene Carbonate Properly controlling the relationship between the contents of the fluorosulfonylimide lithium salt and the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound is advantageous in achieving a synergistic effect among the three components, and also fully suppresses the disadvantages of using each component alone.

[0075] The electrolyte of the secondary battery according to the present application is advantageous in matching with the high voltage positive electrode active material, and thus further improves the energy density of the secondary battery. In some embodiments, when the charge capacity per unit area of ​​the positive electrode sheet is 90% of the capacity per unit area of ​​the negative electrode sheet, the positive electrode charge voltage is ≧4.1 V. When the charge capacity of the positive electrode sheet is 100% of the measured capacity of the negative electrode sheet, the positive electrode charge voltage is ≧4.2 V.

The positive electrode sheet was cut into a small disk of unit area, a metallic lithium sheet was used as the counter electrode, and a polyethylene film was used as the separator, and the resulting CR2430 button battery was assembled in an argon-protected glove box.

[0135] Measuring part (1) Measurement of secondary battery room temperature cycle performance At 25°C, the secondary battery was charged to 4.3V at a constant current of 1C, and then charged to a current of 0.05C at a constant voltage, at which point the secondary battery was fully charged and the charge capacity at this point was recorded and defined as the charge capacity of the first cycle, and after leaving the secondary battery for 5 minutes, it was discharged to 2.8V at a constant current of 1C, which was one cycle of charge and discharge process, and the discharge capacity at this point was recorded and defined as the discharge capacity of the first cycle. The secondary battery was subjected to cycle charge and discharge measurements using the method described above, and the discharge capacity after each cycle was recorded.

[0136] Capacity retention (%) after 600 cycles of the secondary battery at 25°C = discharge capacity after 600 cycles / discharge capacity of the first cycle × 100%.

[0137] (2) High-temperature cycle performance measurement of secondary batteries The secondary battery was charged at 45°C at a constant current of 1C up to 4.3V, and then continuously charged at a constant voltage down to a current of 0.05C, at which point the secondary battery was in a fully charged state, and the charge capacity at this point was recorded and designated as the charge capacity of the first cycle, and the secondary battery was left for 5 minutes and then discharged at a constant current of 1C up to 2.8V, which was one cycle of charge and discharge process, and the discharge capacity at this point was recorded and designated as the discharge capacity of the first cycle. The secondary battery was subjected to cycle charge and discharge measurements using the method described above, and the discharge capacity after each cycle was recorded.

[0138] Capacity retention (%) after 600 cycles of the secondary battery at 45°C = discharge capacity after 600 cycles / discharge capacity of the first cycle × 100%.

[0139] (3) Secondary battery initial DC internal resistance measurement At 25°C, the secondary battery was charged to 4.3V at a constant current of 1C, and then charged to a current of 0.05C at a constant voltage. At this time, the secondary battery was in a fully charged state. The secondary battery was discharged at a constant current of 0.5C and adjusted to 50% SOC. The voltage of the secondary battery at this time was recorded as U1. The secondary battery was discharged for 30 seconds at a constant current of 4C, sampling was performed at 0.1 second intervals, and the end-of-discharge voltage was recorded as U2.

[0140] The discharge DC internal resistance of the secondary battery at 50% SOC was defined as the initial DC internal resistance of the secondary battery, and the initial DC internal resistance of the secondary battery (Ω) = (U1-U2) / 4C.

[0141] (4) High-temperature storage performance measurement of secondary batteries The secondary battery was charged at 60°C at a constant current of 1C up to 4.3V, and then continuously charged at a constant voltage down to a current of 0.05C.

[0143] Table 2 shows the performance measurement results of Examples 1-29 and Comparative Examples 1-3.

[0144] [Table 2]

[0145] As can be seen from the measurement results in Table 2, when the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound is added to the electrolyte, and the cobalt content c of the low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material and the mass percent content x% of the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound in the electrolyte satisfy c+x / 10≧0.10, the secondary battery has significantly improved cycle performance and good high-temperature storage performance. Comparative Examples 1 to 3 do not add a phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound to the electrolyte, or the content of the added phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound is insufficient, in which case the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound cannot form a protective film with excellent performance on the surface of the low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material, and the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound cannot sufficiently stabilize the lithium ions on the surface of the low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material, and cannot suppress excessive lithium desorption from the surface of the low-cobalt or cobalt-free positive electrode active material, so that the secondary battery has difficulty in having significantly improved cycle performance.

[0146] In addition, as can be seen from the measurement results in Table 2, the mass percent content x% of the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound and the fluoro Ethylene Carbonate Further appropriately controlling the relationship of the mass percent content y% of the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound and the fluorocarbon polymer so as to satisfy 0.5≦y / x≦2.0. Ethylene Carbonate By fully utilizing the synergistic effect of the two, the amount of gas generated in the secondary battery is not increased, and the cycle performance of the secondary battery can be further improved.

[0147] In addition, as can be seen from the measurement results in Table 2, by further appropriately controlling the relationship between the mass percent content x% of the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound and the mass percent content z% of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide so as to satisfy 0.5≦x / z≦2.0, the synergistic effect of the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound and lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide can be fully exerted, and not only can the cycle performance of the secondary battery not be deteriorated, but the initial DC internal resistance of the secondary battery can be further reduced and the rate performance of the secondary battery can be improved.

[0148] In addition, as can be seen from the measurement results in Table 2, the mass percent content of the phosphorus-oxygen double bond-containing compound is x%, fluoro Ethylene Carbonate The relationship between the mass percent content y% of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide and the mass percent content z% of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide is further appropriately controlled to satisfy 0.5≦y / x≦2.0, 0.5≦x / z≦2.0, and 0.25≦y / z≦2.0. In this case, the secondary battery has good high-temperature storage performance and can further have greatly improved cycle performance and rate performance.

The above-mentioned embodiment is merely an example, and any embodiment that has substantially the same configuration as the technical idea and has the same effect within the scope of the configuration of the present application is included in the technical scope of the present application.
