[0004] In a positive electrode sheet using multiple positive electrode active materials, the positive electrode active materials are usually arranged in layers to reduce the possibility of current unevenness between the positive electrode active materials. However, the positive electrode sheet after the layered arrangement still has the problem of low rate performance.
[0005] Summary of the Invention
[0006] In view of the above problems, the present application provides a positive electrode sheet, a electrode sheet assembly, a battery cell, a battery and an electrical device, which can reduce the conductivity difference between each positive electrode active material layer and improve the problem of low rate performance.
[0007] In a first aspect, the present application provides a positive electrode sheet, comprising a positive electrode active material layer, the positive electrode active material layer comprising a first positive electrode active material layer and a second positive electrode active material layer, the first positive electrode active material layer comprising a first positive electrode active material, the second positive electrode active material layer comprising a second positive electrode active material, the electronic conductivity of the second positive electrode active material being greater than the electronic conductivity of the first positive electrode active material, the ion transport capacity of the second positive electrode active material being less than the ion transport capacity of the first positive electrode active material, the powder resistivity r1 of the first positive electrode active material measured in Ω·cm at 8 MPa, the powder resistivity r2 of the second positive electrode active material measured in Ω·cm at 8 MPa, the weight proportion w1 of the first positive electrode active material in the positive electrode sheet, and the weight proportion w2 of the second positive electrode active material in the positive electrode sheet satisfy the following relationship:
[0008] In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, the powder resistivity r1 of the first positive electrode active material, the powder resistivity r2 of the second positive electrode active material, the weight proportion w1 of the first positive electrode active material and the weight proportion w2 of the second positive electrode active material are controlled to meet the requirements. This reduces the difference in conductivity between the first and second positive electrode active material layers, thereby reducing the electronic conduction polarization between the two layers, which is beneficial to the rate performance of the entire positive electrode sheet. Furthermore, the layering of the first and second positive electrode active materials reduces the possibility of current unevenness between the first and second positive electrode active materials, thereby ensuring a higher capacity retention rate in the early stages of the cycle.
[0009] In some embodiments, the powder resistivity r1 of the first positive electrode active material in Ω·cm, the powder resistivity r2 of the second positive electrode active material in Ω·cm, the weight proportion w1 of the first positive electrode active material in the positive electrode sheet, and the weight proportion w2 of the second positive electrode active material in the positive electrode sheet satisfy the following relationship:
[0010] In the above implementation process, the powder resistivity r1 of the first positive electrode active material, the powder resistivity r2 of the second positive electrode active material, the weight proportion w1 of the first positive electrode active material and the weight proportion w2 of the second positive electrode active material are controlled to meet the following conditions: The difference in conductivity between the first positive electrode active material layer and the second positive electrode active material layer can be further reduced, which is more conducive to the performance of the rate performance of the entire positive electrode sheet.
[0011] In some embodiments, the powder resistivity of the first positive electrode active material is 500 to 80,000 Ω·cm at 8 MPa; and / or
[0012] The powder resistivity of the second positive electrode active material is 5 to 120 Ω·cm at 8 MPa; and / or
[0013] The weight ratio of the first positive electrode active material in the positive electrode sheet is 0.50-0.95; and / or
[0014] The weight ratio of the second positive electrode active material in the positive electrode sheet is 0.05 to 0.50.
[0015] In some embodiments, the positive electrode sheet further includes a current collector, the first positive electrode material active layer is disposed on at least one surface of the current collector, and the second positive electrode active material layer is disposed on a surface of the first positive electrode active material layer away from the current collector.
[0016] In the above implementation, by placing the second positive electrode active material layer, which has weaker ion transport properties, on the surface of the first positive electrode active material layer, when used in a battery, the second positive electrode active material layer is closer to the negative electrode sheet, shortening its ion transport path, which helps to increase its ion transport rate and, in turn, its rate performance. Furthermore, when the material of the first positive electrode active layer is a material prone to side reactions, such as a ternary system material, this approach can reduce the possibility of side reactions, which is more beneficial to the electrochemical performance of the positive electrode sheet.
[0017] In some embodiments, the thickness Hb of the first cathode material active layer is 20 to 70 μm; and / or
[0018] The thickness Ha of the second positive electrode active material layer is 5 to 60 μm.
[0019] In the above implementation process, by controlling the thickness Hb of the first positive electrode material active layer to 20-70 μm, the amount of the first positive electrode active material can be kept within a more appropriate range, thereby fully utilizing its performance, such as energy density and service life, while reducing the probability of its side reactions causing deterioration of battery performance and safety performance. By controlling the thickness Ha of the second positive electrode active material layer to 5-60 μm, the average transmission distance of the entire second positive electrode active material layer is kept within a smaller range, which is beneficial to its own ion transmission rate and can reduce the weakening of the ion transmission capacity of the first positive electrode active material layer, thereby achieving better rate performance. In addition, the amount of the second positive electrode active material can be kept within a more appropriate range, thereby fully utilizing its performance, such as safety performance.
[0020] In some embodiments, the thickness Hb of the first cathode material active layer is 25 to 55 μm; and / or
[0021] The thickness Ha of the second positive electrode active material layer is 20 to 50 μm.
[0022] In some embodiments, the first cathode active material comprises a ternary system material; and / or
[0023] The second positive electrode active material includes a polyanion positive electrode material.
[0024] In the above implementation process, polyanion positive electrode materials usually exhibit better safety performance, and ternary system materials usually exhibit higher energy density. Using polyanion positive electrode materials as the second positive electrode active material and ternary system materials as the first positive electrode active material can make the positive electrode sheet have both higher safety performance and higher energy density.
[0025] In some embodiments, the polyanion positive electrode material includes LiMPO4, M includes Mn and non-Mn elements, the non-Mn elements include one or both of a first doping element and a second doping element, the first doping element is manganese doping, and the second doping element is phosphorus doping.

[0027] Optionally, the second doping element includes one or more elements selected from the group consisting of B, S, Si and N.
[0028] Optionally, the polyanion cathode material includes Li 1+x Mn 1-y A y P 1-z R z O4, wherein x is any value in the range of -0.100 to 0.100, y is any value in the range of 0.001 to 0.500, z is any value in the range of 0.001 to 0.100, A includes one or more elements selected from the group consisting of Zn, Al, Na, K, Mg, Mo, W, Ti, V, Zr, Fe, Ni, Co, Ga, Sn, Sb, Nb and Ge, and R includes one or more elements selected from the group consisting of B, S, Si and N.
[0029] Optionally, the polyanion cathode material includes Li h A i Mn 1-j B j P 1-k C k O 4-l D l , wherein A includes one or more elements selected from the group consisting of Zn, Al, Na, K, Mg, Nb, Mo, and W; B includes one or more elements selected from the group consisting of Ti, V, Zr, Fe, Ni, Mg, Co, Ga, Sn, Sb, Nb, and Ge; C includes one or more elements selected from the group consisting of B, S, Si, and N; D includes one or more elements selected from the group consisting of S, F, Cl, and Br; h is selected from the range of 0.9 to 1.1, i is selected from the range of 0.001 to 0.1, j is selected from the range of 0.001 to 0.5, k is selected from the range of 0.001 to 0.1, l is selected from the range of 0.001 to 0.1, and the polyanion positive electrode material is electrically neutral.
[0030] In some embodiments, the polyanionic cathode material further comprises a carbon-containing coating layer.
[0031] In the above implementation process, the introduction of the carbon-containing coating layer improves the conductivity of the positive electrode active material. At this time, the structure of the positive electrode active material is actually a core-shell structure with LiMPO4 as the core and the surface of the core covered with the coating layer.
[0032] In some embodiments, the ternary system material includes nickel-cobalt-manganese ternary material and modified materials thereof and nickel-cobalt-aluminum ternary material and modified materials thereof.
[0033] In the above implementation process, the modified material of the nickel-cobalt-manganese ternary material and the modified material of the nickel-cobalt-aluminum ternary material refer to materials obtained by doping or coating the nickel-cobalt-manganese ternary material or the nickel-cobalt-aluminum ternary material, respectively.
[0034] In some embodiments, the weight percentage wCo of the Co element in the ternary material and the thickness Hb of the second positive active material layer in μm satisfy: 2% < wCo ≤ 15%, 0.04 < wCo×Hb / 10 ≤ 1.05.
[0035] In the above implementation process, the Co content and rate performance are positively correlated to a certain extent. The higher the Co content, the better the corresponding rate performance. Controlling the Co content to 2% to 15% can achieve a balance between rate performance and cost control. The relationship between the Co content and the thickness of the second positive electrode active material layer is controlled to meet 0.04 < wCo × Hb / 10 ≤ 1.05, which can ensure that the second positive electrode active material layer has an appropriate content of Co, which is beneficial to the rate performance of the entire positive electrode sheet.
[0036] In some embodiments, the weight percentage wCo of the Co element in the ternary system material and the thickness Hb of the first positive active material layer in μm satisfy: 3% < wCo ≤ 12.5%, 0.3 < wCo×Hb / 1000 ≤ 0.7.
[0037] In a second aspect, the present application provides a positive electrode sheet, comprising a positive electrode active material layer and a current collector, the positive electrode active material layer comprising a first positive electrode active material layer and a second positive electrode active material layer, the first positive electrode active material layer being disposed on at least one surface of the current collector, and the second positive electrode active material layer being disposed on a surface of the first positive electrode active material layer away from the current collector; the first positive electrode active material layer comprising a first positive electrode active material, the first positive electrode active material comprising a ternary system material, the second positive electrode active material layer comprising a second positive electrode active material, the second positive electrode active material comprising a polyanion positive electrode material, the electronic conductivity of the second positive electrode active material being greater than the electronic conductivity of the first positive electrode active material, the powder resistivity r1 of the first positive electrode active material measured in Ω·cm at 8 MPa, the powder resistivity r2 of the second positive electrode active material measured in Ω·cm at 8 MPa, the weight proportion w1 of the first positive electrode active material in the positive electrode sheet, and the weight proportion w2 of the second positive electrode active material in the positive electrode sheet satisfy the following relationship:
[0038] In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, by controlling the powder resistivity r1 of the first positive electrode active material, the powder resistivity r2 of the second positive electrode active material, the weight proportion w1 of the first positive electrode active material, and the weight proportion w2 of the second positive electrode active material to satisfy 0<(w2×r2) / (w1×r1)<0.5, the conductivity difference between the first positive electrode active material layer and the second positive electrode active material layer is reduced, thereby reducing the electronic conduction polarization between the two layers, which is beneficial to the rate performance of the entire positive electrode sheet. At the same time, the first positive electrode active material and the second positive electrode active material are arranged in layers, which can reduce the possibility of current unevenness between the first positive electrode active material and the second positive electrode active material, thereby making the positive electrode sheet have a higher capacity retention rate in the early stage of the cycle. In addition, polyanionic positive electrode materials generally exhibit better safety performance, and ternary system materials generally exhibit higher energy density. Using polyanionic positive electrode materials as the second positive electrode active material and ternary system materials as the first positive electrode active material can make the positive electrode sheet have both higher safety performance and higher energy density. In addition, a second positive electrode active material layer with weaker ion transport performance is arranged on the surface of the first positive electrode active material layer. When used as a battery, the second positive electrode active material layer is closer to the negative electrode sheet, making its ion transport path shorter, which is beneficial to improving its ion transport rate and thus improving its rate performance.

[0041] In the above implementation process, by controlling the relationship between the shortest distance H0 between the positive electrode sheet and the negative electrode sheet, the thickness Hb of the first positive electrode material active layer and the thickness Ha of the second positive electrode material The value is 1.3 to 6.8; it can reduce the weakening of the ion transmission ability of the first positive electrode active material layer by the second positive electrode active material layer, thereby achieving better rate performance, wherein the closest distance H0 between the positive electrode sheet and the negative electrode sheet can be understood as the thickness of the isolation membrane to a certain extent.

[0063] Currently, market developments indicate that power batteries are becoming increasingly widely used. They are not only used in energy storage systems such as hydropower, thermal, wind, and solar power plants, but are also widely used in electric vehicles like electric bicycles, electric motorcycles, and electric vehicles, as well as in military equipment and aerospace. As power battery applications continue to expand, market demand is also growing.
[0064] Power batteries can be lithium-ion batteries, which are widely used in portable electronic devices, electric vehicles, and other fields. In the production process of lithium-ion secondary battery electrode plates, a single-layer coating is usually adopted, in which the required active material is coated on the current collector. With the increasing requirements for energy density and safety performance, some people have proposed using a combination of positive electrode active materials with high energy density characteristics, such as ternary system materials, and positive electrode active materials with high safety performance characteristics, such as polyanion positive electrode materials, to achieve a balance between energy density and safety performance.
[0065] However, when a positive electrode active material with high energy density characteristics and a positive electrode active material with high safety performance characteristics are directly incorporated into a positive electrode active material layer, current unevenness is likely to occur between the two positive electrode active materials in the positive electrode active material layer. This phenomenon will cause the positive electrode sheet to decay rapidly in the early stage of the cycle, which will have a great impact on the cycle retention rate of the positive electrode sheet.
[0066] In order to further improve the problem of rapid attenuation of the electrode in the early stage of the cycle, the two active materials can be layered. However, after the layering, the conductivity difference between the two layers of positive electrode active material is large, so that the positive electrode still has the problem of low rate performance.
[0067] Based on the above considerations, in order to reduce the conductivity difference between each positive electrode active material layer and improve its rate performance. The present application proposes a positive electrode sheet, the positive electrode sheet includes a positive electrode active material layer, the positive electrode active material layer includes a first positive electrode active material layer and a second positive electrode active material layer, the first positive electrode active material layer includes a first positive electrode active material, the second positive electrode active material layer includes a second positive electrode active material, the electronic conductivity of the second positive electrode active material is greater than the electronic conductivity of the first positive electrode active material, the ion transport capacity of the second positive electrode active material is less than the ion transport capacity of the first positive electrode active material, the powder resistivity r1 of the first positive electrode active material measured in Ω·cm at 8MPa, the powder resistivity r2 of the second positive electrode active material measured in Ω·cm at 8MPa, the weight proportion w1 of the first positive electrode active material in the positive electrode sheet, and the weight proportion w2 of the second positive electrode active material in the positive electrode sheet satisfy the following relationship:
[0068] In such a positive electrode sheet, the powder resistivity r1 of the first positive electrode active material, the powder resistivity r2 of the second positive electrode active material, the weight ratio w1 of the first positive electrode active material and the weight ratio w2 of the second positive electrode active material are controlled to meet the following conditions: This reduces the difference in conductivity between the first and second positive electrode active material layers, thereby reducing the electronic conduction polarization between the two layers, which is beneficial to the rate performance of the entire positive electrode sheet. Furthermore, the layering of the first and second positive electrode active materials reduces the possibility of current unevenness between the first and second positive electrode active materials, thereby ensuring a higher capacity retention rate in the early stages of the cycle.
[0069] The positive electrode sheet can be used to prepare an electrode assembly, which can be used, but is not limited to, in electrical devices such as vehicles, ships, or aircraft. A power supply system comprising the battery cells and secondary batteries disclosed herein can be used to form the electrical device. This facilitates fully leveraging the effect of the high ultimate compaction density positive electrode material on increasing the compaction density of the entire positive electrode active material layer, thereby significantly improving the compaction density of the entire positive electrode active material layer, thereby increasing the energy density of the positive electrode sheet and the capacity of the battery cell.
[0070] The present invention provides an electric device that uses a battery as a power source.

[0071] For the convenience of description, the following embodiments are described by taking a vehicle as an example of an electrical device according to an embodiment of the present application.
[0072] Please refer to Figure 1, which is a structural schematic diagram of a vehicle 1000 provided in some embodiments of the present application. The vehicle 1000 can be a fuel vehicle, a gas vehicle or a new energy vehicle. The new energy vehicle can be a pure electric vehicle, a hybrid vehicle or an extended-range vehicle, etc. A secondary battery 100 is provided inside the vehicle 1000, and the secondary battery 100 can be provided at the bottom, head or tail of the vehicle 1000. The secondary battery 100 can be used to power the vehicle 1000. For example, the secondary battery 100 can serve as an operating power source for the vehicle 1000. The vehicle 1000 may also include a controller 300 and a motor 200. The controller 300 is used to control the secondary battery 100 to power the motor 200, for example, for starting, navigating and driving the vehicle 1000.
[0073] In some embodiments of the present application, the secondary battery 100 can serve not only as an operating power source for the vehicle 1000 , but also as a driving power source for the vehicle 1000 , replacing or partially replacing fuel or natural gas to provide driving power for the vehicle 1000 .
[0074] In this application, a secondary battery 100 refers to a single physical module that includes multiple battery cells 20 to provide higher voltage and capacity. It can be in the form of a battery pack, a battery module, etc. The secondary battery 100 can include a housing 10 for enclosing the multiple battery cells 20. The housing 10 can prevent liquids or other foreign matter from affecting the charging or discharging of the battery cells 20.
[0075] FIG2 is a schematic diagram of the exploded structure of a secondary battery 100 provided in some embodiments of the present application. Referring to FIG2 , the secondary battery 100 includes a housing 10 and a battery cell 20 , wherein the battery cell 20 is housed in the housing 10 .
[0076] The housing 10 is used to provide a storage space 11 for the battery cells 20. In some embodiments, the housing 10 may include a first portion 12 and a second portion 13, which overlap to define the storage space 11 for accommodating the battery cells 20. Of course, the connection between the first portion 12 and the second portion 13 can be sealed by a seal (not shown), such as a sealing ring, sealant, or the like.
[0077] The first portion 12 and the second portion 13 can have various shapes, such as a rectangular parallelepiped, a cylinder, etc. The first portion 12 can be a hollow structure with an opening on one side to form a receiving cavity for accommodating the battery cell 20. The second portion 13 can also be a hollow structure with an opening on one side to form a receiving cavity for accommodating the battery cell 20. The open side of the second portion 13 covers the open side of the first portion 12, thereby forming the box 10 with the receiving space 11. Of course, as shown in Figure 2, the first portion 12 can also be a hollow structure with an opening on one side, and the second portion 13 can be a plate-like structure. The second portion 13 covers the open side of the first portion 12, thereby forming the box 10 with the receiving space 11.
[0078] In the secondary battery 100, there are multiple battery cells 20. These multiple battery cells 20 can be connected in series, in parallel, or in a hybrid connection. Hybrid connection refers to a combination of series and parallel connections among the multiple battery cells 20. Multiple battery cells 20 can be directly connected in series, in parallel, or in a hybrid connection, and then the entire battery cell 20 is housed within the housing 10. Alternatively, multiple battery cells 20 can be first connected in series, in parallel, or in a hybrid connection to form a battery module, and then the multiple battery modules are further connected in series, in parallel, or in a hybrid connection to form an entire battery module, which is then housed within the housing 10. The battery cells 20 can be cylindrical, flat, rectangular, or in other shapes. Figure 2 exemplifies a case where the battery cells 20 are square.
[0079] In some embodiments, the secondary battery 100 may further include a busbar component (not shown), and the multiple battery cells 20 may be electrically connected via the busbar component to achieve series connection, parallel connection, or hybrid connection of the multiple battery cells 20 .
[0080] Figure 3 is a schematic diagram of the structure of a battery cell 20 provided in some embodiments of the present application, and Figure 4 is an exploded view of a battery cell 20 provided in some embodiments of the present application. Referring to Figures 3 and 4, the battery cell 20 may include a housing 21, an end cap assembly 22, and an electrode assembly 23. The housing 21 has an opening 211, and the electrode assembly 23 is accommodated within the housing 21. The end cap assembly 22 is used to seal the opening 211.
[0081] The shape of the housing 21 can be determined according to the specific shape of the electrode assembly 23. For example, if the electrode assembly 23 is a rectangular parallelepiped structure, the housing 21 can be a rectangular parallelepiped structure. Figures 3 and 4 exemplarily show the case where the housing 21 and the electrode assembly 23 are square.
[0082] The shell 21 may be made of a variety of materials, such as copper, iron, aluminum, stainless steel, aluminum alloy, etc., and the embodiment of the present application does not impose any special restrictions on this.
[0083] The end cap assembly 22 includes an end cap 221 and an electrode terminal 222. The end cap assembly 22 is used to seal the opening 211 of the outer shell 21 to form a sealed installation space (not shown), which is used to accommodate the electrode assembly 23. The installation space is also used to accommodate an electrolyte, such as an electrolyte. The end cap assembly 22 serves as a component for outputting the electrical energy of the electrode assembly 23. The electrode terminal 222 in the end cap assembly 22 is used to electrically connect to the electrode assembly 23, that is, the electrode terminal 222 is electrically connected to the tab of the electrode assembly 23. For example, the electrode terminal 222 is connected to the tab through the current collecting member 24 to achieve electrical connection between the electrode terminal 222 and the tab.
[0084] It should be noted that the opening 211 of the shell 21 can be one or two. If the opening 211 of the shell 21 is one, the end cap assembly 22 can also be one, and two electrode terminals 222 can be provided in the end cap assembly 22, and the two electrode terminals 222 are respectively used to electrically connect to the positive electrode tab and the negative electrode tab of the electrode assembly 23. If the opening 211 of the shell 21 is two, for example, the two openings 211 are provided on opposite sides of the shell 21, the end cap assembly 22 can also be two, and the two end cap assemblies 22 are respectively covered at the two openings 211 of the shell 21. In this case, the electrode terminal 222 in one end cap assembly 22 can be a positive electrode terminal, which is used to electrically connect to the positive electrode tab of the electrode assembly 23; and the electrode terminal 222 in the other end cap assembly 22 can be a negative electrode terminal, which is used to electrically connect to the negative electrode sheet of the electrode assembly 23.
[0085] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG4 , the battery cell 20 may further include an insulating protective member 25 secured to the periphery of the electrode assembly 23. The insulating protective member 25 is used to insulate and isolate the electrode assembly 23 from the housing 21. Exemplarily, the insulating protective member 25 is a tape adhered to the periphery of the electrode assembly 23. In some embodiments, there are multiple electrode assemblies 23, and the insulating protective member 25 is disposed around the periphery of the multiple electrode assemblies 23, forming the multiple electrode assemblies 23 into a single integrated structure to maintain structural stability.

Referring to FIG5 , the electrode assembly 23 includes a positive electrode sheet 231, a negative electrode sheet 232, and a separator 233. The positive electrode sheet 231 includes a positive electrode current collector 2311 and a positive electrode active material layer 2312. The positive electrode active material layer 2312 is coated on the surface of the positive electrode current collector 2311. The positive electrode current collector 2311 not coated with the positive electrode active material layer 2312 protrudes from the positive electrode current collector 2311 coated with the positive electrode active material layer 2312. The positive electrode current collector 2311 not coated with the positive electrode active material layer 2312 serves as a positive electrode tab.
[0087] The negative electrode sheet 232 includes a negative electrode current collector and a negative electrode active material layer. The negative electrode active material layer is coated on the surface of the negative electrode current collector. The negative electrode current collector not coated with the negative electrode active material layer protrudes from the negative electrode current collector coated with the negative electrode active material layer. The negative electrode current collector not coated with the negative electrode active material layer serves as a negative electrode tab. The material of the negative electrode current collector can be copper, and the negative electrode active material can be carbon or silicon, etc. In order to ensure that a large current passes without melting, the number of positive electrode tabs is multiple and stacked together, and the number of negative electrode tabs is multiple and stacked together. The material of the isolation film 233 can be PP (polypropylene, polypropylene) or PE (polyethylene, polyethylene), etc. In addition, the electrode assembly 23 can be a wound electrode assembly or a laminated electrode assembly, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited to this.

[0089] The positive electrode active material layer 2312 is attached to at least part of the surface of the positive electrode collector 2311. The first positive electrode active material layer 2312a and the second active material layer in the positive electrode active material layer 2312 can both be in direct contact with the positive electrode collector 2311. In other words, the positional relationship between the first positive electrode active material layer 2312a, the second active material layer and the positive electrode collector 2311 can be: the first positive electrode active material layer 2312a is attached to the positive electrode collector 2311, and the second positive electrode active material layer 2312b is attached to the surface of the first positive electrode active material layer 2312a facing away from the positive electrode collector 2311; it can also be: the second positive electrode active material layer 2312b is attached to the positive electrode collector 2311, and the first positive electrode active material layer 2312a is attached to the surface of the second positive electrode active material layer 2312b facing away from the positive electrode collector 2311.
[0090] The material of the positive electrode current collector 2311 can be one or more of aluminum, aluminum alloy, nickel, nickel alloy, titanium, titanium alloy, silver, and silver alloy. Continuing with Figure 6, in one embodiment, a first positive electrode active material layer 2312a and a second positive electrode active material layer 2312b are sequentially disposed on one surface of the positive electrode current collector 2311. Continuing with Figure 7, in another embodiment, the first positive electrode active material layer 2312a and the second positive electrode active material layer 2312b are sequentially disposed on both surfaces of the positive electrode current collector 2311. It should be noted that this is merely an example of how this solution can be implemented. In other embodiments, the positions of the first positive electrode active material layer 2312a and the second positive electrode active material layer 2312b may be interchanged.
[0091] For lithium-ion batteries, the first positive electrode active material and the second positive electrode active material refer to substances capable of intercalating and deintercalating lithium ions.
[0092] Powder resistivity, also known as powder resistivity, is the ratio between the actual resistance value and the theoretical resistance value. It is an indicator used to indicate the current conductivity of powder materials.
[0093] By controlling the powder resistivity r1 of the first positive electrode active material, the powder resistivity r2 of the second positive electrode active material, the weight proportion w1 of the first positive electrode active material and the weight proportion w2 of the second positive electrode active material, the first positive electrode active material and ... are satisfied. This reduces the difference in conductivity between the first positive electrode active material layer 2312a and the second positive electrode active material layer 2312b, thereby reducing the electronic conduction polarization between the two layers, which is beneficial to the rate performance of the entire positive electrode sheet 231. Furthermore, the layered arrangement of the first and second positive electrode active materials reduces the possibility of current unevenness between the first and second positive electrode active materials, thereby ensuring that the positive electrode sheet 231 has a higher capacity retention rate in the early stages of cycling.
[0094] For example, the powder resistivity r1 of the first positive electrode active material in Ω·cm at 8 MPa, the powder resistivity r2 of the second positive electrode active material in Ω·cm at 8 MPa, the weight proportion w1 of the first positive electrode active material in the positive electrode sheet 231, and the weight proportion w2 of the second positive electrode active material in the positive electrode sheet 231 satisfy the following relationship: The value of can be 0.05, 0.1, 0.15, 0.20, 0.25, 0.30, 0.35, 0.40, 0.45 or 0.50, etc., and it can also be any value in the range of 0 to 0.5.
[0095] In the technical solutions of some embodiments of the present application, the powder resistivity r1 of the first positive electrode active material in Ω·cm, the powder resistivity r2 of the second positive electrode active material in Ω·cm, the weight proportion w1 of the first positive electrode active material in the positive electrode sheet 231, and the weight proportion w2 of the second positive electrode active material in the positive electrode sheet 231 satisfy the following relationship: By controlling the powder resistivity r1 of the first positive electrode active material, the powder resistivity r2 of the second positive electrode active material, the weight proportion w1 of the first positive electrode active material and the weight proportion w2 of the second positive electrode active material, the first positive electrode active material and ... are satisfied. The difference in conductivity between the first positive electrode active material layer 2312 a and the second positive electrode active material layer 2312 b can be further reduced, which is more conducive to the performance of the rate performance of the entire positive electrode sheet 231 .
[0096] In the technical solutions of some embodiments of the present application, the powder resistivity of the first positive electrode active material is 500 to 80,000 Ω·cm at 8 MPa; the powder resistivity of the second positive electrode active material is 5 to 120 Ω·cm at 8 MPa; the weight proportion of the first positive electrode active material in the positive electrode sheet 231 is 0.50 to 0.95; the weight proportion of the second positive electrode active material in the positive electrode sheet 231 is 0.05 to 0.50.
[0097] For example, the powder resistivity of the first active material at 8MPa can be 500Ω·cm、1000Ω·cm、1500Ω·cm、2000Ω·cm、2500Ω·cm、3000Ω·cm、3500 Ω·cm、4000Ω·cm、4500Ω·cm、5000Ω·cm、5500Ω·cm、6000Ω·cm、6500Ω·cm、7000Ω·cm、7500Ω·cm、8000Ω·cm 、8500Ω·cm、9000Ω·cm、9500Ω·cm、10000Ω·cm、10500Ω·cm、11000Ω·cm、11500Ω·cm、12000Ω·cm、12500Ω· cm、13000Ω·cm、13500Ω·cm、14000Ω·cm、14500Ω·cm、15000Ω·cm、15500Ω·cm、16000Ω·cm、16500Ω·cm、170 00Ω·cm、17500Ω·cm、18000Ω·cm、18500Ω·cm、19000Ω·cm、19500Ω·cm、20000Ω·cm、20500Ω·cm、21000Ω·c m、21500Ω·cm、22000Ω·cm、22500Ω·cm、23000Ω·cm、23500Ω·cm、24000Ω·cm、24500Ω·cm、25000Ω·cm、2550 0Ω·cm、26000Ω·cm、26500Ω·cm、27000Ω·cm、27500Ω·cm、28000Ω·cm、28500Ω·cm、29000Ω·cm、29500Ω·cm 、30000Ω·cm、30500Ω·cm、31000Ω·cm、31500Ω·cm、32000Ω·cm、32500Ω·cm、33000Ω·cm、33500Ω·cm、34000 Ω·cm, 34500Ω·cm, 35000Ω·cm, 35500Ω·cm, 36000Ω·cm, 36500Ω·cm, 37000Ω·cm, 37500Ω·cm, 38000Ω·cm, 38500Ω·cm, 39000Ω·cm, 39500Ω·cm, 40000Ω·cm, 40500Ω·cm, 41000Ω·cm, 41500Ω·cm, 42 000Ω·cm、42500Ω·cm、43000Ω·cm、43500Ω·cm、44000Ω·cm、44500Ω·cm、45000Ω·cm、45500Ω·cm、4 6000Ω·cm、46500Ω·cm、47000Ω·cm、47500Ω·cm、48000Ω·cm、48500Ω·cm、49000Ω·cm、49500Ω·cm、50000Ω·cm, 50500Ω·cm, 51000Ω·cm, 51500Ω·cm, 52000Ω·cm, 52500Ω·cm, 53000Ω·cm, 53500Ω·cm , 54000Ω·cm, 54500Ω·cm, 55000Ω·cm, 55500Ω·cm, 56000Ω·cm, 56500Ω·cm, 57000Ω·cm, 57500Ω·cm , 58000Ω·cm, 58500Ω·cm, 59000Ω·cm, 59500Ω·cm, 60000Ω·cm, 60500Ω·cm, 61000Ω·cm, 61500Ω·c m, 62000Ω·cm, 62500Ω·cm, 63000Ω·cm, 63500Ω·cm, 64000Ω·cm, 64500Ω·cm, 65000Ω·cm, 65500Ω·c m, 66000Ω·cm, 66500Ω·cm, 67000Ω·cm, 67500Ω·cm, 68000Ω·cm, 68500Ω·cm, 69000Ω·cm, 69500Ω· cm, 70000Ω·cm, 70500Ω·cm, 71000Ω·cm, 71500Ω·cm, 72000Ω·cm, 72500Ω·cm, 73000Ω·cm, 73500Ω· cm, 74000Ω·cm, 74500Ω·cm, 75000Ω·cm, 75500Ω·cm, 76000Ω·cm, 76500Ω·cm, 77000Ω·cm, 77500Ω·cm, 78000Ω·cm, 78500Ω·cm, 79000Ω·cm, 79500Ω·cm or 80000Ω·cm, etc., and it can also be any value within the range of 500 to 80000Ω·cm. The powder resistivity of the second positive electrode active material at 8 MPa may be 5 Ω·cm, 10 Ω·cm, 15 Ω·cm, 20 Ω·cm, 25 Ω·cm, 30 Ω·cm, 35 Ω·cm, 40 Ω·cm, 45 Ω·cm, 50 Ω·cm, 55 Ω·cm, 60 Ω·cm, 65 Ω·cm, 70 Ω·cm, 75 Ω·cm, 80 Ω·cm, 85 Ω·cm, 90 Ω·cm, 95 Ω·cm, 100 Ω·cm, 105 Ω·cm, 110 Ω·cm, 115 Ω·cm or 120 Ω·cm, etc., and may also be any value within the range of 5 to 120 Ω·cm. The weight proportion of the first positive electrode active material in the positive electrode sheet 231 can be 0.50, 0.55, 0.60, 0.65, 0.70, 0.75, 0.80, 0.85, 0.90 or 0.95, etc., and can also be any value within the range of 0.50 to 0.95. The weight proportion of the second positive electrode active material in the positive electrode sheet 231 can be 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20, 0.25,0.30, 0.35, 0.40, 0.45 or 0.50, etc. It can also be any value within the range of 0.05 to 0.50.
[0098] In the technical solutions of some embodiments of the present application, the positive electrode sheet 231 also includes a current collector, a first positive electrode material active layer is disposed on at least one surface of the current collector, and a second positive electrode active material layer 2312b is disposed on the surface of the first positive electrode active material layer 2312a away from the current collector. By disposing the second positive electrode active material layer 2312b, which has weaker ion transport performance, on the surface of the first positive electrode active material layer 2312a, when used as a battery, the second positive electrode active material layer 2312b is closer to the negative electrode sheet 232, making its ion transport path shorter, which is beneficial to improving the overall ion transport rate of the positive electrode active material layer and thereby improving its rate performance. At the same time, when the material of the first positive electrode material active layer 2312a is a material that is prone to side reactions, such as a ternary system material, this method can reduce the possibility of side reactions and is more beneficial to the electrochemical performance of the positive electrode sheet.
[0099] In some embodiments of the present application, the thickness Hb of the first positive electrode material active layer is 20-70 μm; the thickness Ha of the second positive electrode active material layer 2312b is 5-60 μm. By controlling the thickness Hb of the first positive electrode material active layer to 20-70 μm, the amount of the first positive electrode active material can be kept within a relatively suitable range, thereby fully utilizing its performance characteristics, such as energy density and service life, while also reducing the probability of side reactions that deteriorate battery performance and safety. By controlling the thickness Ha of the second positive electrode active material layer 2312b to 5-60 μm, the average transmission distance of the entire second positive electrode active material layer 2312b is kept within a relatively short range, which is beneficial to its own ion transmission rate and minimizes the reduction in the ion transmission capacity of the first positive electrode active material layer 2312a, thereby achieving better rate performance. Furthermore, the amount of the second positive electrode active material can be kept within a relatively suitable range, thereby fully utilizing its performance characteristics, such as safety.
[0100] For example, the thickness Hb of the first positive electrode material active layer can be 20 μm, 25 μm, 30 μm, 35 μm, 40 μm, 45 μm, 50 μm, 55 μm, 60 μm, 65 μm, or 70 μm, or any value within the range of 20 to 70 μm. The thickness Ha of the second positive electrode active material layer 2312b can be 5 μm, 10 μm, 15 μm, 20 μm, 25 μm, 30 μm, 35 μm, 40 μm, 45 μm, 50 μm, 55 μm, or 60 μm, or any value within the range of 5 to 60 μm.
[0101] In the technical solutions of some embodiments of the present application, the thickness Hb of the first positive electrode material active layer is 25 to 55 μm; the thickness Ha of the second positive electrode active material layer 2312b is 20 to 50 μm.
[0102] For example, the thickness Hb of the first positive electrode material active layer can be 25 μm, 30 μm, 35 μm, 40 μm, 45 μm, 50 μm, or 55 μm, or any value within the range of 25 to 55 μm. The thickness Ha of the second positive electrode active material layer 2312b can be 20 μm, 25 μm, 30 μm, 35 μm, 40 μm, 45 μm, or 50 μm, or any value within the range of 20 to 50 μm.
[0103] In the technical solutions of some embodiments of the present application, the first positive electrode active material includes a ternary system material; and the second positive electrode active material includes a polyanion positive electrode material.
[0104] Polyanion positive electrode materials are a general term for a series of compounds containing tetrahedral or octahedral anion structural units (XOm)n-. They have the advantages of high charge and discharge voltage, large energy storage capacity, fast charge and discharge capability and good cycle stability. Their synthesis methods mainly include: high temperature solid phase method, sol-gel method, hydrothermal method, electrospinning method, etc.
[0105] Ternary system materials usually include two types: NCA and NCM. Among them, NCA is widely used due to its long life, large capacity, high energy density and other characteristics, but its specific heat capacity is relatively low; NCM combines the advantages of three types of positive electrode materials: lithium cobalt oxide, lithium nickel oxide and lithium manganese oxide, and has obvious ternary synergistic effect. NCM can usually be expressed as: LiNi x Co y Mn z O2.
[0106] Polyanion positive electrode materials generally exhibit better safety performance, and ternary system materials generally exhibit higher energy density. Using polyanion positive electrode materials as the second positive electrode active material and ternary system materials as the first positive electrode active material can enable the positive electrode sheet 231 to have both higher safety performance and higher energy density.

[0123] Below is Li0.994 Mo 0.001 Mn 0.65 Fe 0.35 P 0.999 Si 0.001 O 3.999 F 0.001 The preparation process is further explained as follows: 1. Preparation of doped manganese oxalate: 1.3 mol of MnSO4﹒H2O and 0.7 mol of FeSO4﹒H2O are thoroughly mixed in a mixer for 6 hours. The mixture is transferred to a reactor, and 10 L of deionized water and 2 mol of dihydrated oxalic acid (calculated as oxalic acid) are added. The reactor is heated to 80°C and stirred at 600 rpm for 6 hours. The reaction is terminated (no bubbles are generated) to obtain an Fe-doped manganese oxalate suspension.

[0124] In the technical solutions of some embodiments of the present application, the second positive electrode active material further has a carbon-containing coating layer.
[0125] The introduction of a carbon-containing coating layer improves the conductivity of the positive electrode active material. At this time, the structure of the positive electrode active material is actually a core-shell structure with LiMPO4 as the core and the surface of the core covered with a coating layer.
[0126] In the list of positive electrode materials in this application, the molar content of Li is the initial state of the material, that is, the state before adding the material. When the positive electrode material is used in a battery system, the molar content of Li will change after charge and discharge cycles.
[0127] In addition, the preparation process and conditions of the materials are different, and the molar content of the O element is usually not strictly the coefficient of the O element in the chemical formula, and there will be fluctuations, such as Li 1+x Mn 1-y A y P 1-z R z The molar content of the O element in O4 is not strictly 4.
[0128] For example, the second positive electrode active material may be LiFePO4, LiMn 0.1 Fe 0.9 PO4、LiMn 0.2 Fe 0.8 PO4、LiMn 0.3 Fe 0.7 PO4、LiMn 0.4 Fe 0.6 PO4、LiMn 0.5 Fe 0.5 PO4、LiMn 0.6 Fe 0.4 PO4、LiMn 0.7 Fe 0.3 PO4、LiMn 0.8 Fe 0.2 PO4、LiMn 0.9 Fe 0.1 PO4, LiMnPO4, LiMn 0.5 Al 0.5 P 0.5 B 0.5 O4、LiMn 0.5 Mg 0.5 P 0.5 S 0.5 O4, etc., M in LiMPO4 includes Mn and non-Mn elements, and the non-Mn elements include one or both of a first doping element and a second doping element. The first doping element is manganese doping, and the second doping element is phosphorus doping. The first doping element includes one or more elements selected from Zn, Al, Na, K, Mg, Mo, W, Ti, V, Zr, Fe, Ni, Co, Ga, Sn, Sb, Nb, and Ge; the second doping element includes one or more elements selected from B, S, Si, and N.
[0129] In the technical solutions of some embodiments of the present application, the ternary system materials include nickel-cobalt-manganese ternary materials and modified materials thereof and nickel-cobalt-aluminum ternary materials and modified materials thereof. Among them, the ternary system materials include nickel-cobalt-manganese ternary materials and modified materials thereof and nickel-cobalt-aluminum ternary materials and modified materials thereof; for example, the chemical formula of the ternary system material is LiNi x Co y Mn zO2, where 0≤x≤1, 0≤y≤1, 0≤z≤1, x+y+z=1, such as LiNi 0.4 Co 0.2 Mn 0.4 O2、LiNi 0.5 Co 0.2 Mn 0.3 O2 and LiNi 0.7 Co 0.15 Mn 0.15 O2, etc.
[0130] It should be noted that the above enumeration of the first positive electrode active material and the second positive electrode active material is merely an illustration of the feasibility of this solution and is not intended to limit this solution. The implementation of this solution only requires that the first positive electrode active material and the second positive electrode active material meet the corresponding electronic conductivity requirements. In other embodiments, those skilled in the art may select specific materials for the first positive electrode active material and the second positive electrode active material according to actual needs, such as the materials listed above and their modified materials, including doping or coating, or select other materials that meet the electronic conductivity requirements of this application.
[0131] In the technical solutions of some embodiments of the present application, the weight percentage wCo of the Co element as a percentage of all elements in the ternary material and the thickness Hb of the second positive electrode active material layer 2312b in μm satisfy the following conditions: 2% < wCo ≤ 15%, and 0.04 < wCo × Hb / 10 ≤ 1.05. The Co content and rate performance are positively correlated to a certain extent; a higher Co content corresponds to better rate performance. Controlling the Co content to 2% to 15% balances rate performance and cost control. Controlling the relationship between the Co content and the thickness of the second positive electrode active material layer 2312b to satisfy 0.04 < wCo × Hb / 10 ≤ 1.05 ensures an appropriate Co content in the second positive electrode active material layer 2312b, which is beneficial to the rate performance of the entire positive electrode sheet 231.
[0132] For example, the weight percentage wCo of the Co element in the ternary material can be 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9%, 10%, 11%, 12%, 13%, 14%, or 15%, or any other value within the range of 2% to 15%. The weight percentage wCo of the Co element in the ternary material and the thickness Hb of the second positive electrode active material layer 2312b satisfy the relationship wCo×Hb / 1000, which can be 0.04, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20, 0.25, 0.30, 0.35, 0.40, 0.45, 0.50, 0.55, 0.60, 0.65, 0.70, 0.75, 0.80, 0.85, 0.90, 0.95, 1.00, or 1.05, or any other value within the range of 0.04 to 1.05.
[0133] In the technical solutions of some embodiments of the present application, the weight percentage wCo of the Co element in the ternary system material to all elements and the thickness Hb of the first positive active material layer 2312a in μm satisfy: 3%<wCo≤12.5%, 0.3<wCo×Hb / 10≤0.7.
[0134] After the above introduction to the material and structure of the positive electrode sheet 231 , the preparation method of the positive electrode sheet 231 will be specifically introduced below.
[0135] The preparation method of the positive electrode sheet 231 includes the following steps: preparing a positive electrode active material layer 2312 on a positive electrode current collector 2311, and the preparation order of the first positive electrode active material layer 2312a and the second positive electrode active material layer 2312b in the positive electrode active material layer 2312 is not limited. It can be: the first positive electrode active material layer 2312a is arranged on at least a portion of the surface of the positive electrode current collector 2311, and the second positive electrode active material layer 2312b is arranged on at least a portion of the surface of the first positive electrode active material away from the positive electrode current collector 2311; or it can be: the second positive electrode active material layer 2312b is arranged on at least a portion of the surface of the positive electrode current collector 2311, and the first positive electrode active material layer 2312a is arranged on the second positive electrode active material layer 2312b away from the positive electrode current collector At least a portion of the surface of the positive electrode current collector 2311; the first positive electrode active material layer 2312a includes a first positive electrode active material, the second positive electrode active material layer 2312b includes a second positive electrode active material, the electronic conductivity of the second positive electrode active material is greater than the electronic conductivity of the first positive electrode active material, the ion transport capacity of the second positive electrode active material is less than the ion transport capacity of the first positive electrode active material, the powder resistivity r1 of the first positive electrode active material measured in Ω·cm at 8 MPa, the powder resistivity r2 of the second positive electrode active material measured in Ω·cm at 8 MPa, the weight proportion w1 of the first positive electrode active material in the positive electrode sheet 231, and the weight proportion w2 of the second positive electrode active material in the positive electrode sheet 231 satisfy the following relationship:
[0136] The method satisfies the following conditions by controlling the powder resistivity r1 of the first positive electrode active material, the powder resistivity r2 of the second positive electrode active material, the weight ratio w1 of the first positive electrode active material and the weight ratio w2 of the second positive electrode active material: This reduces the difference in conductivity between the first positive electrode active material layer 2312a and the second positive electrode active material layer 2312b, thereby reducing the electronic conduction polarization between the two layers, which is beneficial to the rate performance of the entire positive electrode sheet 231. Furthermore, the layered arrangement of the first and second positive electrode active materials reduces the possibility of current unevenness between the first and second positive electrode active materials, thereby ensuring that the positive electrode sheet 231 has a higher capacity retention rate in the early stages of cycling.

[0160]
Isolation film
[0161] A polyethylene film was used as the separator, and its thickness was 7 μm.
[0162] Preparation of lithium-ion batteries
[0163] The prepared positive and negative electrodes and separator (polyethylene (PE) porous polymer film) are wound to form the corresponding battery cells. The battery cells are hot-pressed at 90°C and then ultrasonically welded to the positive and negative electrode tabs. The positive electrode uses aluminum tabs and the negative electrode uses copper tabs, and the positive and negative tabs are located on the same side of the battery cell. The battery cells with tab welding are placed in an aluminum shell of appropriate size for soft connection and top cover welding. The battery cells are vacuum-dried at 175°C for 24 hours, and then the electrolyte is injected and sealed to obtain an uncharged battery. The uncharged battery then undergoes a series of processes such as static standing, formation, aging, exhaust, secondary sealing, and capacity testing to obtain a lithium-ion battery product.
[0164] The main parameters of each embodiment and comparative example are shown in the following table:
[0165] In the table above, the chemical formula of the NCM material with a wCo value of 0.08 is LiNi 0.55 Co 0.12 Mn 0.33 The chemical formula of NCM material with O2 and wCo values of 0.01 is LiNi 0.55 Co 0.01 Mn 0.43 The chemical formula of NCM material with O2 and wCo value of 0.02 is LiNi 0.55 Co 0.04 Mn 0.41 The chemical formula of the NCM material with O2 and wCo values of 0.15 is LiNi 0.65 Co 0.18 Mn 0.17 The chemical formula of NCM material with O2 and wCo value of 0.2 is LiNi 0.65 Co 0.25 Mn 0.10 O2.

[0167] The Co content test of NCM material includes: taking 0.4g of the electrode NCM material layer powder in a 25ml beaker, adding 2ml~5ml nitric acid, leaving it overnight, and then placing it on a hot plate and heating it at about 100℃ (using a voltage-regulating transformer to adjust the input voltage and temperature). After the powder is digested, add 0.5ml of perchloric acid and heat it at about 140℃ until the white smoke is gone. The residue should be white, otherwise nitric acid and perchloric acid should be added to repeat the digestion. Finally, use 7% (volume % of acid) hydrochloric acid to dissolve and extract. After the volume is adjusted to an appropriate volume depending on the content of the element to be tested, the mass fraction of Ni, Co, Mn, and Li is tested on an ICP-OES test instrument. The mass of different elements can be calculated based on the mass of the powder and the mass fraction of different elements, and then the molar amount is calculated based on its molar mass. The Co content can be confirmed by the molar ratio of different elements.
[0168] Example 26

[0170] The performance test of the batteries provided in each embodiment and comparative example was performed, and the performance test specifically included:
[0171] The rate performance test method is as follows: in an environment of 25°C, charge and discharge are performed at a constant current of 0.33C (i.e., the current value that completely discharges the theoretical capacity within 3 hours) until the voltage reaches 2.5V. Then, constant current charge is performed at a charging current of 0.33C to a voltage of 4.4V, and constant voltage charge is continued to a current of 0.05C, at which point the battery is fully charged. After the fully charged cell is allowed to rest for 5 minutes, it is discharged at a constant current of 0.33C to 2.5V. The discharge capacity at this time is the actual capacity of the cell at 0.33C, recorded as C0. The cell is then charged at a constant current of 0.33C to 4.4V, then charged at a constant voltage to a current of 0.05C, allowed to rest for 5 minutes, and discharged at a constant current of 1C to 2.5V. The discharge capacity C1 is recorded as the 1C discharge capacity. 1C rate capacity retention rate = (1C discharge capacity / 0.33C discharge capacity) × 100%.
[0172] The test results are shown in the following table:

When the power is increased, it has better rate performance, which can reach more than 99%.
[0175] By comparing Example 3 with Examples 6 to 9, it can be seen that as the thickness Ha of the second positive electrode active material layer increases, the rate performance shows a trend of first increasing and then decreasing, and when the thickness Ha of the second positive electrode active material layer is in the range of 5 to 60 μm, it has good rate performance, which can reach more than 99.2%.

[0177] By comparing Example 3 with Examples 14 to 17, it can be seen that the relationship between the closest distance H0 between the positive electrode sheet and the negative electrode sheet, the thickness Hb of the first positive electrode material active layer and the thickness Ha of the second positive electrode material is as follows: The value gradually increases, and the rate performance shows a trend of first increasing and then decreasing, and the relationship between the closest distance H0 between the positive electrode sheet and the negative electrode sheet, the thickness Hb of the first positive electrode material active layer and the thickness Ha of the second positive electrode material When the value is in the range of 1.3 to 6.8, it has good rate performance and can reach more than 98.9%.
[0178] By comparing Example 3 with Examples 18 to 21, it can be seen that as the weight percentage wCo of the Co element in all elements in the ternary system material gradually increases, the rate performance shows a trend of first increasing and then decreasing, and when the weight percentage wCo of the Co element in all elements in the ternary system material is in the range of 0.02 to 0.15, it has good rate performance, which can reach more than 98.7%.
[0179] By comparing Example 3 with Examples 22 to 25, it can be seen that as the value of the relationship between the proportion of the Co element and the thickness of the second positive electrode active material layer, wCo×Hb / 10, gradually increases, the rate performance shows a trend of first increasing and then decreasing, and when the value of the relationship between the proportion of the Co element and the thickness of the second positive electrode active material layer, wCo×Hb / 10, is in the range of 0.04 to 1.05, it has good rate performance, which can reach more than 98.6%.
[0180] By comparing Example 3 and Example 26, it can be seen that placing the ternary system material in the inner layer will enable the entire positive electrode sheet to have better rate performance.
