Description

A battery pole piece and its preparation method and a solid-state battery and its preparation method

[0001] This application is based on the Chinese patent application with application number 202311007393.4 and application date August 10, 2023, and claims the priority of the Chinese patent application. The entire content of the Chinese application is hereby introduced into this application as a reference. Technical Field

[0002] The present invention belongs to the field of solid-state batteries and relates to a battery pole piece and a preparation method thereof, and a solid-state battery and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0003] Currently, commercial lithium-ion batteries use liquid organic electrolytes. These flammable and explosive liquid organic electrolytes, particularly in high-energy-density energy storage devices, can seriously impact the safety of lithium-ion batteries. Solid-state batteries, due to their use of thermally stable solid electrolytes, can effectively address safety issues during battery operation.

[0004] Solid-state electrolytes have attracted widespread attention from researchers due to their high thermal stability, high ionic conductivity, and stable electrochemical window. However, the application of both inorganic and polymer solid electrolytes in battery cells, as well as the scalable production process for solid electrolytes in battery electrodes, have hindered their large-scale commercialization. Therefore, developing methods that simultaneously meet the requirements for mass production of battery electrodes and address interface contact issues are crucial for the commercialization of solid-state batteries.

[0005] In the conventional production process of battery pole pieces, a coating method is usually used to prepare battery pole pieces containing solid electrolytes on the positive or negative electrode. However, the solid electrolyte layer obtained by directly coating the surface of the battery pole piece in the traditional coating method is unevenly distributed, the interface contact with the active material is not close, and the thickness of the coated solid electrolyte layer is difficult to control. The solid electrolyte coated on the surface is prone to agglomeration and sedimentation, which in turn causes process problems such as material sticking and clogging. It also affects the interface contact between the electrode active material and the solid electrolyte and the cycle stability of the solid-state battery, seriously affecting the performance and production efficiency of the solid-state battery.

[0006] Summary of the Invention

[0007] Problems to be solved by the invention

[0008] In view of the above-mentioned process problems such as material jamming and blockage caused by agglomeration and sedimentation of solid electrolytes, and the problems that affect the interfacial contact between the electrode active material and the solid electrolyte and the cycle stability of the solid-state battery, it is necessary to improve the preparation process and significantly improve the production efficiency. It is also expected that battery electrodes and solid-state batteries containing solid electrolytes with controllable thickness, uniform dispersion of solid electrolytes and good interfacial contact can be prepared, thereby improving the performance of solid-state batteries.

[0074] <First Aspect>

[0075] A first aspect of the present invention relates to a method for preparing a battery electrode, comprising the following steps:

[0076] Step S2: spraying an organic polymer solid electrolyte slurry containing a composition of an organic polymer solid electrolyte, a lithium salt and a binder onto the surface of the positive electrode sheet or the negative electrode sheet by a rotary atomization spraying method, thereby obtaining a positive electrode sheet or a negative electrode sheet having an organic polymer solid electrolyte layer.

[0078] Step S4: spraying the second solid electrolyte slurry onto the surface of the organic polymer solid electrolyte layer obtained in step S2 by rotary atomization spraying, thereby obtaining a positive electrode sheet or a negative electrode sheet having the organic polymer solid electrolyte layer and the second solid electrolyte layer.

[0079] In some preferred embodiments, the preparation method of the present invention may further comprise the following homogenization step:

[0080] Step S1: homogenizing a composition containing an organic polymer solid electrolyte, a lithium salt and a binder in a solvent to prepare an organic polymer solid electrolyte slurry; and / or

[0081] Step S3: slurrying the composition containing the second solid electrolyte in a solvent to prepare a second solid electrolyte slurry.

[0082] In some preferred embodiments, the preparation method of the present invention may further comprise the following steps:

[0083] Step Sx: hot pressing the finally prepared positive electrode sheet or negative electrode sheet.

[0084] In the present invention, there is no particular limitation on the method for preparing the positive electrode sheet or the negative electrode sheet before spraying the organic polymer solid electrolyte slurry, and the positive electrode sheet can be prepared using common methods in the art such as conventional coating method, electrostatic spraying method, etc.

[0085] The following describes each step in detail.

[0086] Step S1

[0087] In step S1 , a composition containing an organic polymer solid electrolyte, a lithium salt, and a binder is slurried in a solvent to prepare an organic polymer solid electrolyte slurry.

[0088] In the present invention, the organic polymer solid electrolyte in the composition in step S1 can be selected from polyethylene oxide (PEO), polyvinylidene fluoride-hexafluoropropylene (PVDF-HFP), polyvinylidene fluoride-chlorotrifluoroethylene (PVDF-CTFE), polyacrylonitrile (PAN), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polypropylene carbonate (PPC), polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), polycyanoethyl acrylate (PCA), polypentylene succinate, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyvinyl carbonate, polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP), polyimide (PI), polyurethane, polyacrylate One or more. When two or more organic polymer solid electrolytes are used, the ratio between them is not particularly limited and can be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0089] In the present invention, the lithium salt and the binder are not particularly limited, and those commonly used in the art can be used. For example, the lithium salt can be selected from one or more of lithium hexafluorophosphate, lithium tetrafluoroborate, lithium perchlorate, lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl imide), lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl imide), and lithium difluorooxalatoborate. The binder can be selected from one or more of polyvinylidene fluoride, polyvinyl alcohol, polytetrafluoroethylene, sodium hydroxymethyl cellulose, styrene-butadiene rubber, acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber, styrene-butadiene-styrene copolymer, polyacrylic acid, and lithium polyacrylate.

[0090] In the composition in step S1 , the lithium salt content may be 20 mass % to 50 mass % and the binder content may be 1 mass % to 10 mass %.

[0091] In some preferred embodiments, the organic polymer solid electrolyte in step S1 is further doped with an inorganic ceramic material.

[0092] Adding inorganic ceramic particles to the organic polymer solid electrolyte layer can improve the interfacial contact with the positive or negative electrode active material, reduce the crystallization area of ​​the polymer and improve ion conduction, while reducing the interfacial impedance, improving the interfacial stability, and preventing the occurrence of interfacial side reactions, thereby increasing the cycle stability of the solid-state battery.

[0093] The inorganic ceramic particles may be selected from one or more of nitrides, carbides, metal oxides, and non-metal oxides. Specifically, the nitride may be selected from one or more of silicon nitride (Si3N4), titanium nitride (TiN), aluminum nitride (AlN), boron nitride (BN), and magnesium nitride (Mg3N2); the carbide may be selected from one or more of silicon carbide (SiC) and boron carbide (B4C); the metal oxide may be selected from one or more of aluminum oxide (Al2O3), titanium dioxide (TiO2), zirconium dioxide (ZrO2), and magnesium oxide (MgO); and the non-metal oxide may be selected from one or more of silicon dioxide (SiO2) and boron oxide (B2O3).

[0094] In some preferred embodiments, in the composition in step S1, the mass ratio of the organic polymer solid electrolyte to the inorganic ceramic particles is (100-1): (0.01-70), for example, it can be 99.9:0.01, 90:10, 80:20, 70:30, 60:40, 50:50, 40:60, etc., wherein, if the ratio of the inorganic ceramic particles exceeds this range, the particles will agglomerate, which is not conducive to dispersion, clogs the equipment, and affects production efficiency.

[0095] In some embodiments, the composition in step S1 further includes a conductive agent. There is no particular limitation on the conductive agent, and those commonly used in the art can be used. For example, the conductive agent can be selected from one or more of conductive graphite, conductive carbon black, acetylene black, carbon nanotubes, Ketjen black, graphene, carbon nanofibers, polyethylene dioxythiophene, polystyrene sulfonic acid, sodium polystyrene sulfonate, and a polymer obtained by polymerization of ethylene dioxythiophene and styrene sulfonic acid. Among them, a polymer obtained by polymerization of ethylene dioxythiophene and styrene sulfonic acid is preferably used because the polymer, as a conductive agent, has better solubility in a solvent and better conductive agent performance.

[0096] When the composition in step S1 contains a conductive agent, the content thereof is not particularly limited and can be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0097] In the present invention, the solid content of the organic polymer solid electrolyte slurry is 10-70% by mass, for example, 10% by mass, 20% by mass, 30% by mass, 40% by mass, 50% by mass, 60% by mass, 70% by mass, etc.

[0098] In step S1, the organic solvent used in the homogenization can be selected from one or more of N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP), dimethylformamide (DMF), dimethylacetamide, butyrate, toluene, xylene, anisole, hexane, heptane, dibromomethane, dichloroethane, ethanol and glycol ether.

[0099] Step S2

[0100] In step S2, the organic polymer solid electrolyte slurry prepared in step S1 is sprayed onto the surface of the positive electrode sheet or the negative electrode sheet by rotary atomization spraying, thereby obtaining a positive electrode sheet or a negative electrode sheet having an organic polymer solid electrolyte layer.

[0101] In the present invention, during the rotary atomization spraying in step S2, the spraying pressure can be 0.6-3.5 MPa, preferably 1.0 MPa-2.0 MPa, for example, 0.6 MPa, 0.8 MPa, 1.0 MPa, 1.5 MPa, 2.0 MPa, 2.5 MPa, 3.0 MPa, 3.5 MPa, etc. The spraying pressure within the above range can effectively disperse the slurry, improve the atomization effect and the uniformity of the active material sprayed on the electrode surface. If the spraying pressure is too low, it is easy to cause agglomeration of the solid electrolyte, uneven particle size distribution after atomization, and other problems, affecting the interlayer interface contact.

[0102] In addition, the spraying conditions in the rotary atomization spraying of the present invention may also include the following:

[0103] The rotation speed of the atomizing device can be 2000-30000 rpm, for example, 2000 rpm, 3000 rpm, 4000 rpm, 5000 rpm, 6000 rpm, 7000 rpm, 8000 rpm, 9000 rpm, 10000 rpm, 15000 rpm, 20000 rpm, 25000 rpm, 30000 rpm, etc.

[0104] The liquid intake rate can be 5-2000 kg / hour, for example, 5 kg / hour, 10 kg / hour, 50 kg / hour, 100 kg / hour, 200 kg / hour, 500 kg / hour, 1000 kg / hour, 1500 kg / hour, 2000 kg / hour, etc.

[0105] Controlling the rotation speed, liquid feed volume and pressure within the above range can more effectively disperse the slurry, improve the atomization effect and improve the spray uniformity; too low rotation speed and liquid feed volume can also easily cause problems such as agglomeration of solid electrolytes and uneven particle size distribution after atomization, affecting the interlayer interface contact.

[0106] In some embodiments of the present invention, the thickness of the organic polymer solid electrolyte layer may be 5-25 μm, for example, 5 μm, 6 μm, 7 μm, 8 μm, 9 μm, 10 μm, 15 μm, 20 μm, 25 μm, etc. An excessively thick organic polymer solid electrolyte layer may increase interfacial impedance and affect the rate performance of the battery.

[0107] Step S3

[0108] In some preferred embodiments, the preparation method of the present invention may further comprise the following steps:

[0109] The composition containing the second solid electrolyte is slurried in a solvent to prepare a second solid electrolyte slurry.

[0110] In the present invention, the second solid electrolyte in the composition in step S3 may include one or more of inorganic solid electrolytes and organic polymer solid electrolytes. When the second solid electrolyte includes both an inorganic solid electrolyte and an organic polymer solid electrolyte, the ratio between them is not particularly limited and can be adjusted according to actual needs. For example, the mass ratio between the inorganic solid electrolyte and the organic polymer solid electrolyte may be 0.2:1 to 40:1.

[0111] Specifically, the inorganic solid electrolyte may be selected from one or more of oxide solid electrolytes, sulfide solid electrolytes, halide solid electrolytes, borate solid electrolytes, and nitride solid electrolytes.

[0112] More specifically, the oxide solid electrolyte may be selected from one or more of perovskite-type oxide solid electrolytes, garnet-type oxide solid electrolytes, and NASICON-type oxide solid electrolytes. Preferably, the perovskite-type oxide solid electrolyte may be selected from lithium lanthanum titanium oxide (LLTO); the garnet-type oxide solid electrolyte may be selected from one or more of lithium lanthanum zirconium oxide (LLZO), niobium-doped lithium lanthanum zirconium oxide (LLZNO), tantalum-doped lithium lanthanum zirconium oxide (LLZTO), and niobium-tantalum co-doped lithium lanthanum zirconium oxide (LLZNTO); the NASICON-type oxide solid electrolyte may be selected from one or more of lithium aluminum titanium phosphate (LATP), lithium yttrium titanium phosphate (LYTP), and lithium germanium aluminum phosphate (LAGP).

[0113] The sulfide solid electrolyte may be selected from one or more of lithium germanium phosphorus sulfur (LGPS), lithium phosphorus sulfur chloride (LPSCl), lithium silicon phosphorus sulfur, lithium silicon phosphorus sulfur chloride, lithium phosphorus sulfur bromide (LPSBr), lithium phosphorus sulfur iodide (LPSI), lithium thiophosphate (LPS), and vitreous sulfides (Li2S-P2S5, Li2S-SiS2, Li2S-B2S3). The halide solid electrolyte may be selected from Li3OCl, LiI, Li5ZnI4, Li3OCl 1-x Br x (where 0 < x < 1), Li2XCl4 (X is selected from Cd and / or Mg), Li2X′I4 (X′ is selected from Cd and / or Zn), LiMCl5X″ (M is selected from one or more of La, Ta, and Nb; X″ is selected from any one of O, Cl, F, and OH), Li 3-x Zr x M′ 1-xOne or more of Cl6 (M' is selected from one or more of Y, Er, Yb, Ho, and Lu, 0≤x≤1).

[0115] The composition in step S3 optionally includes a lithium salt. When the second solid electrolyte in the composition in step S3 includes only an organic polymer solid electrolyte, the composition in step S3 must include a lithium salt. When the second solid electrolyte in the composition in step S3 includes an inorganic solid electrolyte or includes only an organic polymer solid electrolyte, the composition in step S3 may or may not include a lithium salt.

[0116] In some preferred embodiments, the composition in step S3 further comprises a binder. There are no particular limitations on the lithium salt and binder, and those commonly used in the art may be used. Examples of lithium salts and binders are the same as those listed in step S1. In specific implementations, the lithium salt and binder used in step S3 may be the same as or different from those used in step S1.

[0117] When the composition in step S3 contains a lithium salt and a binder, their contents are not particularly limited and can be adjusted according to actual needs, for example, 5% to 35% by mass, respectively.

[0120] Step S4

[0121] In step S4, the second solid electrolyte slurry prepared in step S3 is sprayed onto the surface of the organic polymer solid electrolyte layer obtained in step S2 by rotary atomization spraying, thereby obtaining a positive electrode sheet or a negative electrode sheet having an organic polymer solid electrolyte layer and a second solid electrolyte layer in sequence.

[0128] During the hot pressing process, the interface contact between the flexible interface of the organic polymer solid electrolyte layer and the solid electrolyte layer is increased, the crystallization area of ​​the polymer is reduced on the basis of reducing the process steps, ion transport behavior is induced and a new ion transport interface is formed, the electrochemical stability window of the solid electrolyte is improved, the ionic conductivity between the multilayer structure is improved, and the compatibility of the electrode and solid electrolyte interface is increased.
