Description
Fast-charging secondary battery and power-consuming device Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the field of electrochemical technology, and in particular to a fast-charging secondary battery and an electrical device. Background Art
[0002] Secondary batteries (such as lithium-ion batteries) have the characteristics of high specific energy, high operating voltage, low self-discharge rate, small size and light weight, and are widely used in various fields such as energy storage, portable electronic devices and electric vehicles. With the continuous iterative development of consumer lithium-ion batteries in recent years, the market has increasingly higher requirements for their charging speed. The charging rate of lithium-ion batteries has continued to increase, and consumer demand has gradually increased from 1C to 5C or above. However, it is difficult to balance the dynamic performance, cycle performance and mechanical reliability of fast-charging (5C≤charging rate≤15C) lithium-ion batteries. Therefore, how to balance the dynamic performance, cycle performance and mechanical reliability of super-fast charging lithium-ion batteries has become a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently by those skilled in the art.
[0003] Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of the present application is to provide a fast-charging secondary battery that takes into account the dynamic performance, cycle performance and mechanical reliability of the fast-charging secondary battery, and at the same time provides an electrical device using the fast-charging secondary battery.
[0005] It should be noted that in the invention content of this application, lithium-ion batteries are used as an example of secondary batteries to explain this application, but the secondary batteries of this application are not limited to lithium-ion batteries, and can also be applied to secondary batteries such as sodium-ion batteries.
[0006] The specific technical solutions are as follows:
[0007] The first aspect of the present application provides a fast-charging secondary battery, wherein the fast-charging secondary battery includes an electrode assembly and an electrolyte, the electrode assembly includes a positive electrode plate, a negative electrode plate and a separator arranged between the positive electrode plate and the negative electrode plate; the positive electrode plate includes a positive electrode collector, and the positive electrode collector extends as a whole to form a plurality of positive electrode tabs; the negative electrode plate includes a negative electrode collector, and the negative electrode collector extends as a whole to form a plurality of negative electrode tabs; the separator includes a separator substrate, a first bonding coating and a second bonding coating, and the first bonding coating and the second bonding coating are respectively arranged on both sides of the separator substrate; the first bonding coating contains a first polymer binder, and the average particle size of the first polymer binder is 0.3μm to 3μm; the second bonding coating contains a second polymer binder, and the average particle size of the second polymer binder is 4μm to 15μm.
[0008] This application provides a multi-electrode structure for the secondary battery by providing a plurality of positive electrode tabs formed by integrally extending the positive electrode current collector and a plurality of negative electrode tabs formed by integrally extending the negative electrode current collector. The positive electrode tab and the negative electrode tab have multiple current channels, thereby reducing the internal resistance of the secondary battery, minimizing the voltage polarization of the secondary battery under high-rate charging conditions, reducing the charging temperature rise of the secondary battery, and shortening the charging time of the secondary battery, thereby providing the secondary battery with higher dynamic performance. In order to adapt to the dynamic requirements of fast-charging secondary batteries, a large amount of electrolyte is added to the secondary battery, i.e., a large amount of liquid is retained (free electrolyte exists in fresh secondary batteries), which places high requirements on the infiltration fluidity of the electrolyte. The connection strength between the multiple pole ears extending from the current collector and the current collector is much lower than the connection method of welding the external pole ears to the current collector in the prior art. At the same time, the pole ears extending integrally with the current collector are usually obtained by die-cutting. During the die-cutting process, burrs, microcracks and other defects are easily generated on the edges of the pole ears, further reducing the strength of the integrally extended pole ears. The above reasons lead to the low strength and easy fracture of the multi-pole ear structure extending from the current collector. The high liquid retention design of the fast-charging secondary battery will cause the free electrolyte to move under the action of external forces such as falling and vibration, impacting the multi-pole ear structure of the fast-charging secondary battery, increasing the risk of pole ear fracture, and thereby increasing the internal resistance of the fast-charging secondary battery or affecting the mechanical reliability of the fast-charging secondary battery. A first bonding coating and a second bonding coating are respectively provided on both sides of the isolation membrane of the fast-charging secondary battery, and the average particle size of the first polymer binder in the first bonding coating and the average particle size of the second polymer binder in the second bonding coating are within the above-mentioned range of the present application. One side of the isolation membrane has high bonding force, which can strengthen the bonding force between the isolation membrane and the positive / negative electrode sheets, improve the hardness of the fast-charging secondary battery, and thus improve the mechanical reliability of the fast-charging secondary battery. At the same time, the high bonding force of the isolation membrane can also reduce the relative movement of the electrodes caused by external mechanical forces, alleviate the impact, and reduce the fracture rate of the positive / negative electrode ears, thereby further improving the mechanical reliability of the fast-charging secondary battery and reducing the internal resistance of the fast-charging secondary battery. In addition, the other side of the isolation membrane has a second adhesive coating, and the gap between the negative / positive electrode sheet is increased, so that the transmission channel of the electrolyte is expanded, the space for storing the electrolyte becomes larger, and the fast-charged secondary battery can have a high liquid retention (such as 1.5g / Ah to 2.4g / Ah), so that the head, tail and middle parts of the fast-charged secondary battery have sufficient electrolyte during the cycle, which can provide sufficient ion channels, thereby meeting the cycle requirements of the fast-charged secondary battery and making the fast-charged secondary battery have good cycle performance. Therefore, the isolation membrane of the present application has a good synergistic effect with the multi-electrode structure, which can take into account the dynamic performance, cycle performance and mechanical reliability of the fast-charged secondary battery.
[0009] In one embodiment of the present application, an N1 layer of positive electrode tabs is provided between two adjacent positive electrode tabs, and an N2 layer of negative electrode tabs is provided between two adjacent negative electrode tabs, and N1 and N2 are each independently selected from 0, 1, 2, or 3. By regulating N1 and N2 within the above range, it is possible to provide a sufficient number of positive electrode tabs and negative electrode tabs on the positive electrode tabs and negative electrode tabs in the fast-charge secondary battery, thereby providing multiple current channels on the positive electrode tabs and negative electrode tabs, reducing the internal resistance of the secondary battery, reducing the charging temperature rise of the fast-charge secondary battery, and shortening the charging time, thereby achieving good dynamic performance while taking into account both cycle performance and mechanical reliability of the fast-charge secondary battery. It can be understood that adjusting N1 and N2 to 0 can provide more current channels on the positive and negative electrodes, further reduce the internal resistance of the secondary battery, further reduce the charging temperature rise of the fast-charging secondary battery, and further shorten the charging time, thereby further improving the dynamic performance of the fast-charging secondary battery while taking into account both cycle performance and mechanical reliability. However, this will reduce the energy density of the secondary battery to a certain extent; adjusting N1 and N2 to 1 or 2 or 3 will reduce the number of tabs and increase the internal resistance to a certain extent, but it can increase the battery energy density.
[0010] In one embodiment of the present application, the first adhesive coating is disposed on the side of the separator substrate close to the negative electrode plate, and the second adhesive coating is disposed on the side of the separator substrate close to the positive electrode plate. For most secondary batteries, fast charging is mainly required for energy replenishment, but there is no need for fast discharge, that is, the charging rate is much greater than the discharge rate. The secondary battery charging process mainly involves the insertion of lithium ions into the negative electrode. Therefore, placing a high-viscosity coating with smaller separator particles on the negative electrode plate can shorten the lithium ion transmission path during the charging process and achieve faster charging speed.
[0011] In one embodiment of the present application, the average particle size of the first polymer binder is 0.6 μm to 1.6 μm; and / or, the average particle size of the second polymer binder is 8 μm to 12 μm. Regulating the average particle size of the first polymer binder within the above range is beneficial to further improving the kinetic performance and mechanical reliability of the fast-charged secondary battery while taking into account the cycle performance, and having a higher energy density. Regulating the average particle size of the second polymer binder within the above range is beneficial to further improving the kinetic performance and mechanical reliability of the fast-charged secondary battery while taking into account the mechanical reliability, and also allowing the fast-charged secondary battery to have a higher energy density.
[0012] In one embodiment of the present application, the thickness of the first bonding coating is 0.2 μm to 4 μm, and the thickness of the second bonding coating is 5 μm to 20 μm. The high-viscosity coating has a smaller particle size and stronger bonding strength. Ensuring its thickness is between 0.2 μm and 4 μm can maximize energy density while ensuring bonding strength, while shortening the lithium ion transmission path in the active material layer corresponding to the first bonding coating. The second bonding coating has a larger particle size, which can form a channel for electrolyte circulation. Setting it between 5 μm and 20 μm can improve energy density while ensuring the flow and wettability of the electrolyte.
[0013] In one embodiment of the present application, the single-sided coating weight of the first bonding coating is 0.0001 mg / mm 2 to 0.001 mg / mm 2 The single-sided coating weight of the second bonding coating is 0.0004 mg / mm 2 to 0.002 mg / mm 2 Regulating the single-sided coating weight of the first bonding coating within the above range can fully utilize the high bonding properties of the first bonding coating, better bond the pole piece and the separator, and ensure the mechanical reliability of the secondary battery; regulating the single-sided coating weight of the second bonding coating within the above range can fully realize the electrolyte flow channel between the pole piece and the separator, and improve the dynamics and cycle performance of the secondary battery.
[0014] In one embodiment of the present application, the coverage of the first polymer binder per unit area of the first bonding coat layer is 40% to 60%. By regulating the coverage of the first polymer binder per unit area of the first bonding coat layer within the above range, the high bonding properties of the first bonding coat layer can be fully utilized. This facilitates bonding between the separator and the electrode, allowing for faster lithium ion transmission, thereby further improving the dynamic performance of the secondary battery.
[0015] In one embodiment of the present application, the first polymer binder is a core-shell structure, the first polymer binder includes a first shell and a first core, the polymerization monomer of the first shell includes at least one of methyl acrylate, ethyl acrylate, butyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate, ethyl methacrylate, butyl methacrylate, ethylene, ethyl chloromethylacrylate, chlorostyrene, fluorostyrene, methylstyrene, acrylonitrile or methacrylonitrile, and the polymerization monomer of the first core includes at least one of ethyl acrylate, butyl acrylate, ethyl methacrylate, styrene, chlorostyrene, fluorostyrene, methylstyrene, acrylic acid, methacrylic acid or maleic acid; or, the first polymer binder is a non-core-shell structure, and the polymerization monomer of the first polymer binder includes at least one of acrylic acid, methyl acrylate, butyl acrylate, butadiene, styrene, acrylonitrile, ethylene, fluorostyrene, chlorostyrene or propylene. The above-mentioned first polymer binder is applied to the first bonding coating layer, which can make the first bonding coating layer have high bonding force.
[0016] In one embodiment of the present application, the coverage of the second polymer binder per unit area of the second bonding coating layer is 40% to 60%. By regulating the coverage of the second polymer binder per unit area of the second bonding coating layer within the above range, the separator and the electrode have strong adhesion, resulting in a secondary battery with a higher energy density. This allows the fast-charging secondary battery to have a low production cost and a high energy density while taking into account dynamic performance, cycle performance, and mechanical reliability.
[0017] In one embodiment of the present application, the second polymer binder has a core-shell structure, comprising a second outer shell and a second inner core, wherein the polymerized monomers of the second outer shell include at least one of vinylidene chloride, vinylidene fluoride, hexafluoropropylene, styrene, butadiene, acrylonitrile, acrylic acid, methyl acrylate, or butyl acrylate, and the polymerized monomers of the second inner core include at least one of ethyl methacrylate, methyl acrylate, ethyl acrylate, butyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate, butyl methacrylate, or ethyl chloromethylacrylate; alternatively, the second polymer binder has a non-core-shell structure, wherein the polymerized monomers of the second polymer binder include at least one of vinylidene chloride, vinylidene fluoride, hexafluoropropylene, ethylene, propylene, vinyl chloride, allyl chloride, acrylic acid, methyl acrylate, butyl acrylate, styrene, butadiene, or acrylonitrile. The use of the above-mentioned second polymer binder can provide a large gap between the second bonding coating and the positive / negative electrode sheets.
[0018] In one embodiment of the present application, the separator further includes a ceramic coating, which is disposed between the separator substrate and the first bonding coating, and / or between the separator substrate and the second bonding coating. The ceramic coating includes ceramic particles, and the average particle size of the ceramic particles is 1 μm to 3 μm. The ceramic coating has good hardness and heat resistance. By disposing the ceramic coating in the separator and regulating the average particle size of the ceramic particles in the ceramic coating within the above range, the fast-charge secondary battery can further improve its mechanical reliability while having good thermal safety performance. Furthermore, the fast-charge secondary battery has good dynamic performance and cycle performance.
[0019] In one embodiment of the present application, the ceramic particles include at least one of alumina, boehmite, titanium dioxide, silicon dioxide, zirconium dioxide, tin dioxide, magnesium hydroxide, magnesium oxide, zinc oxide, barium sulfate, boron nitride, aluminum nitride or silicon nitride.
[0020] In one embodiment of the present application, the thickness of the ceramic coating is 0.5 μm to 6 μm. Controlling the thickness of the ceramic coating within this range is beneficial for ensuring that the fast-charging secondary battery has good thermal safety and energy density while taking into account dynamic performance, cycle performance, and mechanical reliability.
[0021] The second aspect of the present application provides an electrical device comprising the fast-charging secondary battery described in any of the aforementioned embodiments.
[0022] Beneficial effects of this application:
[0023] The present application provides a fast-charging secondary battery and an electrical device, wherein the fast-charging secondary battery is designed with a high liquid retention capacity. By providing a multi-pole structure, and providing a first bonding coating and a second bonding coating on both sides of the isolation membrane substrate, and limiting the particle size range of the first polymer binder in the first bonding coating and the second polymer binder in the second bonding coating, the fast-charging secondary battery has a high liquid retention capacity. The multi-pole structure and the isolation membrane play a good synergistic role, and on the basis of achieving the fast charging performance of the secondary battery, the mechanical reliability of the secondary battery is improved, that is, the dynamic performance, cycle performance and mechanical reliability of the fast-charging secondary battery are taken into account. The electrical device of the present application has good performance in use. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0034] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application more clearly understood, the present application is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It is apparent that the described examples are only a portion of the embodiments of this application, rather than all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on this application are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0035] Fast-charged secondary batteries require that the impedance of the battery system is very low in order to meet the requirements of high-rate (5C ≤ charging rate ≤ 15C) charging and the cycle performance of fast-charged secondary batteries. The embedded single-pole ear structure used in existing secondary batteries leads to crowding of the current channels in the positive electrode plate or the negative electrode plate, which increases the ohmic impedance of the secondary battery. When the secondary battery is charged at a high rate, the charging temperature rises, the charging speed is low, and it has poor kinetic performance. In addition, the liquid retention capacity of existing secondary batteries is low. As the cycle proceeds, the electrolyte is gradually consumed and the number of ion channels gradually decreases. When the number of ion channels is reduced to a level that cannot meet the transmission requirements of the secondary battery cycle, the positive and negative electrode plates begin to fail due to local lithium deintercalation, and the failure area expands as the cycle continues, causing the secondary battery cycle to decay rapidly and fail. Based on this, the present application provides a fast-charged secondary battery and an electrical device.
[0036] The first aspect of the present application provides a fast-charging secondary battery, wherein the fast-charging secondary battery includes an electrode assembly and an electrolyte, the electrode assembly includes a positive electrode plate, a negative electrode plate, and a separator arranged between the positive electrode plate and the negative electrode plate; the positive electrode plate includes a positive electrode current collector, and the positive electrode current collector extends as a whole to form a plurality of positive electrode tabs; the negative electrode plate includes a negative electrode current collector, and the negative electrode current collector extends as a whole to form a plurality of negative electrode tabs; the separator includes a separator substrate, a first bonding coating and a second bonding coating, and the first bonding coating and the second bonding coating are respectively arranged on both sides of the separator substrate. The first bonding coating comprises a first polymer binder, and the average particle size of the first polymer binder is 0.3 μm to 3 μm. The second bonding coating comprises a second polymer binder, and the average particle size of the second polymer binder is 4 μm to 15 μm.
[0037] In this application, for ease of understanding, the separator is defined as having its own length direction as X, its own width direction as Y, and its own thickness direction as Z in the unfolded state. It can be understood that the length direction, width direction, and thickness direction of the positive and negative electrode sheets in the unfolded state are the same as those of the separator. After the positive electrode sheet, separator, and negative electrode sheet are wound to form an electrode assembly with a wound structure, the winding direction of the electrode assembly is W. As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the electrode assembly 001 includes a positive electrode sheet 10, a negative electrode sheet 20, and a separator 30, with the separator 30 being disposed between the positive electrode sheet 10 and the negative electrode sheet 20. As shown in FIG3 , the positive electrode sheet 10 includes a positive electrode current collector 11, which extends integrally to form a plurality of positive electrode tabs 12. The positive electrode current collector 11 includes a positive electrode tab region 111 and a positive electrode main body region 112. It is understood that the positive electrode tab region 111 is the region where the positive electrode tabs 12 are provided, and the positive electrode main body region 112 refers to the region of the positive electrode current collector 11 excluding the positive electrode tab region 111. As shown in FIG4 , the negative electrode sheet 20 includes a negative electrode current collector 21, which extends integrally to form a plurality of negative electrode tabs 22. The negative electrode current collector 21 includes a negative electrode tab region 211 and a negative electrode main body region 212. It is understood that the negative electrode tab region 211 refers to the region where the negative electrode tabs 22 are provided, and the negative electrode main body region 212 refers to the region of the negative electrode current collector 21 excluding the negative electrode tab region 211. In the present application, the above-mentioned "integrated extension" refers to the integral molding of the current collector and the tabs. For example, multiple tabs can be cut out on the current collector by die-cutting or laser, which is different from the solution of connecting the tabs to the current collector by welding or other means. It should be noted that the number, shape and size of the positive and negative tabs in Figures 1 to 4 are only exemplary illustrations, and this application is not limited to this. As shown in Figures 5 and 6, the separator 30 includes a separator substrate 31, a first bonding coating 32 and a second bonding coating 33. The first bonding coating 32 and the second bonding coating 33 are respectively arranged on both sides of the separator substrate 31, and the separator substrate 31 is located between the first bonding coating 32 and the second bonding coating 33. Among them, the first bonding coating 32 can be close to the positive electrode sheet 10 side or the negative electrode sheet 20 side. As shown in Figure 5, the first bonding coating 32 is arranged on the side of the separator substrate 31 close to the negative electrode sheet 20, and the second bonding coating 33 is arranged on the side of the separator substrate 31 close to the positive electrode sheet 10. As shown in Figure 6, the first bonding coating 32 is provided on the side of the separator substrate 31 close to the positive electrode sheet 10, and the second bonding coating 33 is provided on the side of the separator substrate 31 close to the negative electrode sheet 20. In this application, the above-mentioned "plurality" refers to two or more. In one embodiment of the present application, a plurality refers to 2 to the same number as the number of electrode layers. For example, a plurality can be 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 15, 20, 25, or 30.
[0038] For example, the average particle size of the first polymer binder is 0.3 μm, 0.5 μm, 1 μm, 1.5 μm, 2 μm, 2.5 μm, 3 μm or any value between any two numerical ranges mentioned above. The average particle size of the first polymer binder is less than 0.3 μm, and the average particle size of the first polymer binder is too small. When preparing the first bonding coating slurry, each particle of the first polymer binder is easily agglomerated. In this way, the probability that the first polymer binder is uniformly dispersed in the first bonding coating slurry is extremely small, and the distribution of the first polymer binder in the first bonding coating formed is uneven, which will affect the cohesion of the first bonding coating. The average particle size of the first polymer binder is greater than 3 μm, and the average particle size of the first polymer binder is too large. The gap between each particle of the first polymer binder will be too large, thereby affecting the performance of the first polymer binder in the first bonding coating, and then affecting the cohesion of the first bonding coating, and the average particle size of the first polymer binder is too large to increase the thickness of the first bonding coating, thereby increasing the volume of the fast-charged secondary battery and thus causing its energy density to be lost.
[0039] For example, the average particle size of the second polymer binder is 4μm, 6μm, 8μm, 10μm, 12μm, 14μm, 15μm or any value between any two of the above numerical ranges. The average particle size of the second polymer binder is less than 4μm. If the average particle size of the second polymer binder is too small, the gap between the separator and the positive electrode or negative electrode is too small, and the transmission channel of the electrolyte is too narrow, which affects the transmission of the electrolyte and thus affects the cycle performance and dynamic performance of the fast-charge secondary battery. The average particle size of the second polymer binder is greater than 15μm. If the average particle size of the second polymer binder is too large, the thickness of the second bonding coating will increase, thereby increasing the volume of the fast-charge secondary battery and causing a loss in its energy density.
[0040] This application provides a multi-electrode structure for the secondary battery by providing a plurality of positive electrode tabs formed by integrally extending the positive electrode current collector and a plurality of negative electrode tabs formed by integrally extending the negative electrode current collector. The positive electrode tab and the negative electrode tab have multiple current channels, thereby reducing the internal resistance of the secondary battery. This reduces the voltage polarization of the fast-charging secondary battery under high-rate charging conditions, reduces the charging temperature rise of the secondary battery, and shortens the charging time of the secondary battery, thereby making the secondary battery have higher dynamic performance. In order to adapt to the dynamic requirements of the fast-charging secondary battery, a large amount of electrolyte is added to the secondary battery, that is, a large amount of liquid is retained (free electrolyte exists in the fresh secondary battery), which places higher requirements on the infiltration fluidity of the electrolyte. The connection strength between the multiple pole ears extending from the current collector and the current collector is much lower than the connection method of welding the external pole ears to the current collector in the prior art. At the same time, the pole ears extending integrally with the current collector are usually obtained by die-cutting. During the die-cutting process, burrs, microcracks and other defects are easily generated on the edges of the pole ears, further reducing the strength of the integrally extended pole ears. The above reasons lead to the low strength and easy fracture of the multi-pole ear structure extending from the current collector. The high liquid retention design of the fast-charging secondary battery will cause the free electrolyte to move under the action of external forces such as falling and vibration, impacting the multi-pole ear structure of the fast-charging secondary battery, increasing the risk of pole ear fracture, and thereby increasing the internal resistance of the fast-charging secondary battery or affecting the mechanical reliability of the fast-charging secondary battery. A first bonding coating and a second bonding coating are respectively provided on both sides of the isolation membrane of the fast-charging secondary battery, and the average particle size of the first polymer binder in the first bonding coating and the average particle size of the second polymer binder in the second bonding coating are within the above-mentioned range of the present application. One side of the isolation membrane has high bonding force, which can strengthen the bonding force between the isolation membrane and the electrode, improve the hardness of the fast-charging secondary battery, and thus improve the mechanical reliability of the fast-charging secondary battery. At the same time, the high bonding force of the isolation membrane can also reduce the relative movement of the electrode caused by external mechanical force, alleviate the impact, and reduce the fracture rate of the electrode ear, thereby further improving the mechanical reliability of the fast-charging secondary battery and reducing the internal resistance of the fast-charging secondary battery. In addition, the other side of the isolation membrane has a second adhesive coating, and the gap between the isolation membrane and the electrode is increased, so that the transmission channel of the electrolyte is expanded. In this way, the space for storing electrolyte becomes larger, and the fast-charged secondary battery can have a high liquid retention (such as 1.5g / Ah to 2.4g / Ah), so that the head, tail and middle parts of the fast-charged secondary battery have sufficient electrolyte during the cycle, which can provide sufficient ion channels, thereby meeting the cycle requirements of the fast-charged secondary battery and making the fast-charged secondary battery have good cycle performance. Therefore, the isolation membrane of the present application has a good synergistic effect with the multi-electrode structure, which can take into account the dynamic performance, cycle performance and mechanical reliability of the fast-charged secondary battery.
[0041] In one embodiment of the present application, an N1 layer of positive electrode sheet is provided between two adjacent positive electrode tabs, and an N2 layer of negative electrode sheet is provided between two adjacent negative electrode tabs, and N1 and N2 are each independently selected from 0, 1, 2 or 3. As shown in FIG1 , in the wound electrode assembly, from top to bottom in the figure, 0 layers of positive electrode sheet 10 are provided between two adjacent positive electrode tabs 12, and 0 layers of negative electrode sheet 20 are provided between two adjacent negative electrode tabs 22. As shown in FIG2 , in the wound electrode assembly, from top to bottom in the figure, 1 layer of positive electrode sheet 10 and 2 layers of positive electrode sheet 10 are provided between two adjacent positive electrode tabs 12, respectively, and 0 layers of negative electrode sheet 20 and 3 layers of negative electrode sheet 20 are provided between two adjacent negative electrode tabs 22, respectively. By regulating N1 and N2 within the above range, the positive and negative electrode tabs in the fast-charged secondary battery can be provided with a sufficient number of positive and negative electrode tabs, thereby providing multiple current channels on the positive and negative electrode tabs, reducing the internal resistance of the secondary battery, reducing the charging temperature rise of the fast-charged secondary battery, and shortening the charging time, thereby achieving good dynamic performance while taking into account both the cycle performance and mechanical reliability of the fast-charged secondary battery. It is understandable that regulating N1 and N2 to 0 can provide more current channels on the positive and negative electrode tabs, further reducing the internal resistance of the secondary battery, further reducing the charging temperature rise of the fast-charged secondary battery, and further shortening the charging time, thereby achieving further improvement in the dynamic performance of the fast-charged secondary battery while taking into account both the cycle performance and mechanical reliability, but this will reduce the energy density of the secondary battery to a certain extent; adjusting N1 and N2 to 1, 2, or 3 will reduce the number of tabs, increase the internal resistance to a certain extent, but can increase the battery energy density.
[0042] In one embodiment of the present application, an N1 layer of positive electrode sheet is provided between two adjacent positive electrode tabs, and an N2 layer of negative electrode sheet is provided between two adjacent negative electrode tabs, and N1 and N2 are each independently selected from 0. As shown in FIG1 , in the wound electrode assembly, from top to bottom in the figure, a 0 layer of positive electrode sheet 10 is provided between two adjacent positive electrode tabs 12, and a 0 layer of negative electrode sheet 20 is provided between two adjacent negative electrode tabs 22. By regulating N1 and N2 to 0, more positive electrode sheets and negative electrode sheets in the fast-charged secondary battery can be provided with positive electrode tabs and negative electrode tabs, thereby providing more current channels on the positive electrode sheets and negative electrode sheets, further reducing the internal resistance of the secondary battery, further reducing the charging temperature rise of the fast-charged secondary battery, and further shortening the charging time, thereby further improving the dynamic performance of the fast-charged secondary battery while taking into account both the cycle performance and mechanical reliability, but reducing the energy density to a certain extent.
[0043] In one embodiment of the present application, the first bonding coating is provided on the side of the separator substrate close to the negative electrode sheet, and the second bonding coating is provided on the side of the separator substrate close to the positive electrode sheet. As shown in FIG5 , the first bonding coating 32 is provided on the side of the separator substrate 31 close to the negative electrode sheet 20, and the second bonding coating 33 is provided on the side of the separator substrate 31 close to the positive electrode sheet 10. For most secondary batteries, fast charging is mainly required for energy replenishment, but there is no need for fast discharge, that is, the charging rate is much greater than the discharge rate. The charging process of secondary batteries mainly involves the embedding of lithium ions into the negative electrode, so the high-viscosity coating with smaller separator particles is provided on the negative electrode sheet side, which can shorten the lithium ion transmission path during the charging process and achieve faster charging speed.
[0044] In one embodiment of the present application, the average particle size of the first polymer binder is 0.6 μm to 1.6 μm.

In yet another embodiment of the present application, the average particle size of the first polymer binder is 0.6 μm to 1.6 μm, and the average particle size of the second polymer binder is 8 μm to 12 μm. For example, the average particle size of the first polymer binder is 0.6 μm, 0.8 μm, 1.0 μm, 1.6 μm, or any value between any two of the above numerical ranges. For example, the average particle size of the second polymer binder is 8 μm, 9 μm, 10 μm, 11 μm, 12 μm, or any value between any two of the above numerical ranges. Regulating the average particle size of the first polymer binder within the above range is conducive to the uniform distribution of the first polymer binder in the first bonding coating, and there is a suitable gap between each particle of the first polymer binder, so that the high-binder coating has a stronger bonding force, and it is also conducive to regulating the thickness of the first bonding coating within a suitable range, so that the fast-charged secondary battery can further improve the dynamic performance and mechanical reliability of the fast-charged secondary battery while taking into account the cycle performance, and has a higher energy density. Regulating the average particle size of the second polymer binder within the above range, there is a suitable gap between the isolation membrane and the positive electrode sheet or the negative electrode sheet, which is conducive to the transmission of the electrolyte, and it is also conducive to regulating the thickness of the second bonding coating within a suitable range, so that the fast-charged secondary battery can further improve the cycle performance and dynamic performance of the fast-charged secondary battery while taking into account the mechanical reliability, and also makes the fast-charged secondary battery have a higher energy density.
[0045] The present application does not particularly limit the method for regulating the average particle size of the first polymer binder and the average particle size of the second polymer binder, as long as the purpose of the present application can be achieved. For example, this can be achieved by purchasing first and second polymer binders with average particle sizes within the range of the present application, or by grinding, screening, particle size distribution testing, etc. to obtain first and second polymer binders with corresponding average particle sizes.

The particle size of the first polymer binder in the first bonding coating is small, the bonding force of the first bonding coating is strong, and the thickness of the first bonding coating is regulated within the above range. The first bonding coating has a suitable thickness, which can reduce the risk of energy density loss caused by the increase in volume of the fast-charged secondary battery due to excessive thickness while ensuring the bonding force of the first bonding coating, thereby improving the energy density of the fast-charged secondary battery and shortening the transmission path of lithium ions in the active material layer corresponding to the first bonding coating. Thus, the fast-charged secondary battery can take into account dynamic performance, cycle performance and mechanical reliability, and can also improve the energy density of the fast-charged secondary battery.
[0047] In one embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figures 6 to 9, the thickness H2 of the second bonding coating 33 is 5μm to 20μm. For example, the thickness H2 of the second bonding coating is 5μm, 6μm, 8μm, 10μm, 12μm, 14μm, 16μm, 18μm, 20μm or any value between any two of the above numerical ranges. The particle size of the second polymer binder in the second bonding coating is large, and a channel for electrolyte circulation can be formed. The thickness of the second bonding coating is regulated within the above range. The second bonding coating has a suitable thickness, which can reduce the risk of energy density loss caused by the increase in the volume of the fast-charged secondary battery due to the large thickness when the electrolyte has good flow wettability in the pole piece and the separator. In this way, the fast-charged secondary battery can take into account dynamic performance, cycle performance and mechanical reliability, and can also improve the energy density of the fast-charged secondary battery.

By regulating the single-sided coating weight of the first bonding coating within the above range, the first bonding coating can exert its high bonding properties to better bond the electrode and the separator. It can also reduce the risk of energy density loss caused by the increase in volume of the fast-charge secondary battery due to excessive single-sided coating weight. In this way, the fast-charge secondary battery can have good mechanical reliability and high energy density on the basis of having good dynamic performance and cycle performance.
[0049] In one embodiment of the present application, the single-sided coating weight of the second bonding coating is 0.0004 mg / mm 2 to 0.002 mg / mm 2 For example, the coating weight of the second adhesive coating layer on one side is 0.0004 mg / mm 2 , 0.0008mg / mm 2 , 0.0012mg / mm 2 , 0.0016mg / mm 2 , 0.002mg / mm 2 Or any value between any two of the above numerical ranges.

The first bonding coating 32 and the second bonding coating 33 are disposed on either side of the separator substrate 31, respectively. The ceramic coating 34 is disposed between the separator substrate 31 and the first bonding coating 32, and the second bonding coating 33 is adjacent to the surface of the separator substrate 31 away from the ceramic coating 34. The ceramic coating has excellent hardness and heat resistance. Disposing the ceramic coating between the separator and the first bonding coating can prevent the separator from shrinking at high temperatures, thereby improving the hardness and heat resistance of the secondary battery. This can further improve the mechanical reliability of the fast-charge secondary battery while maintaining good thermal safety performance. Furthermore, the fast-charge secondary battery has good dynamic performance and cycling performance. The ceramic coating 34 disposed between the separator substrate 31 and the first bonding coating 32 can also store a certain amount of electrolyte, providing additional electrolyte flow channels and improving the dynamic performance of the secondary battery.

The first bonding coating 32 is adjacent to the surface of the isolation membrane substrate 31 away from the ceramic coating 34. The ceramic coating has good hardness and heat resistance. The ceramic coating is disposed between the isolation membrane substrate and the second bonding coating. The ceramic coating can prevent the isolation membrane from shrinking at high temperatures, thereby improving the hardness and heat resistance of the secondary battery, thereby further improving the mechanical reliability of the fast-charged secondary battery while ensuring good thermal safety performance. In addition, the fast-charged secondary battery has good dynamic performance and cycle performance. In the present application, it is preferred that the second bonding coating 33 faces the positive electrode plate, and the ceramic coating 34 is arranged between the isolation membrane substrate 21 and the second bonding coating 33 to store electrolyte. It can also provide additional electrolyte channels outside the electrolyte channels formed by the second bonding coating 33, which can reduce the thickness of the second bonding coating 33 and improve the energy density. At the same time, it protects the isolation membrane substrate 31 from being oxidized by the high voltage of the positive electrode, and can also reduce the coating thickness of the second bonding coating 33.
[0061] In one embodiment of the present application, the isolation membrane further includes a ceramic coating, which is disposed between the isolation membrane substrate and the first bonding coating, and the ceramic coating is also disposed between the isolation membrane substrate and the second bonding coating. As shown in FIG9 , the isolation membrane 30 includes an isolation membrane substrate 31, a first bonding coating 32, a second bonding coating 33, and two layers of ceramic coating 34. The first bonding coating 32 and the second bonding coating 33 are disposed on both sides of the isolation membrane substrate 31, respectively. One layer of ceramic coating 34 is disposed between the isolation membrane substrate 31 and the first bonding coating 32. At the same time, another layer of ceramic coating 34 is disposed between the isolation membrane substrate 31 and the second bonding coating 33. It should be noted that the above-mentioned two layers of ceramic coating can be the same or different. The ceramic coating has good hardness and heat resistance. Providing a ceramic coating in the isolation membrane can improve the hardness and heat resistance of the fast-charged secondary battery, thereby further improving its mechanical reliability while enabling the fast-charged secondary battery to have good thermal safety performance.

[0062] In one embodiment of the present application, the ceramic coating includes ceramic particles, and the average particle size of the ceramic particles is 1 μm to 3 μm. For example, the average particle size of the ceramic particles is 1 μm, 1.5 μm, 2 μm, 2.5 μm, 3 μm, or any value between any two of the above numerical ranges. By regulating the average particle size of the ceramic particles within the above range, the risk of agglomeration of the ceramic particles in the ceramic coating is low, and while the ceramic coating exhibits heat resistance and high hardness, its thickness can be regulated within a suitable range, which is conducive to the fast-charging secondary battery having good thermal safety performance while taking into account dynamic performance, cycle performance, and mechanical reliability.

Regulating the thickness of the ceramic coating within the above range is beneficial for the ceramic coating to increase the volume of the fast-charged secondary battery less on the basis of its high hardness and good heat resistance. In this way, the probability of the energy density of the fast-charged secondary battery being damaged due to the increase in the thickness of the ceramic coating can be reduced, so that the fast-charged secondary battery has good thermal safety performance and energy density while taking into account the dynamic performance, cycle performance and mechanical reliability.

At the end of the test, the lithium-ion battery was disassembled.
[0124] Judgment criteria: The battery passed the test if there was no fire, explosion, or smoke after the test, and no breakage of the positive or negative electrode tab after disassembly. Ten lithium-ion batteries were tested for each embodiment and comparative example.
[0125] Drop pass rate (%) = number of lithium-ion batteries passed / 10×100%.

Second, the fully charged lithium-ion battery is placed in an oven, heated at 5°C / min to 135°C, and held there for 1 hour. The lithium-ion battery passes the test if it does not catch fire or explode. Each example and comparative example uses 100 lithium-ion batteries for testing. The hot box test pass rate = number of batteries passing the test / 100 × 100%. The hot box test pass rate indicates the thermal safety performance of the lithium-ion battery. A higher hot box test pass rate indicates better thermal safety performance.

[0204] Table 2
[0205] From Examples 1-1 to 1-24 and Comparative Examples 1 to 9, it can be seen that the secondary battery of the embodiment of the present application has a multi-pole structure by providing a positive electrode current collector integrally extending to form a plurality of positive electrode tabs and a negative electrode current collector integrally extending to form a plurality of negative electrode tabs. At the same time, a first bonding coating and a second bonding coating are respectively provided on both sides of the isolation membrane, and the average particle size of the first polymer binder in the first bonding coating and the average particle size of the second polymer binder in the second bonding coating are within the scope of the present application, so that the bonding force F1 of the isolation membrane to the positive electrode sheet and the bonding force F2 of the isolation membrane to the negative electrode sheet F2 is higher, and the secondary battery has lower ohmic impedance, shorter charging time (that is, higher charging speed) and lower charging temperature rise at a charging rate of 10C, indicating that the secondary battery has good dynamic performance under fast charging conditions. The secondary battery has a higher capacity retention rate at a charging rate of 10C, indicating that the secondary battery has good cycle performance under fast charging conditions. The secondary battery has a higher 1.5m drop pass rate, indicating that the secondary battery has good mechanical reliability. Therefore, the secondary battery of the embodiment of the present application can take into account dynamic performance, cycle performance and mechanical reliability under fast charging conditions. However, the average particle size of the first polymer binder in the isolation membrane of the secondary batteries of Comparative Examples 1 and 2 is not within the scope of the present application; the average particle size of the second polymer binder in the isolation membrane of the secondary batteries of Comparative Examples 3 and 4 is not within the scope of the present application; the secondary battery of Comparative Example 5 has an embedded single-pole ear structure rather than the multi-pole ear structure of the present application; the secondary battery of Comparative Example 6 has a second adhesive coating on both sides of its isolation membrane rather than the isolation membrane structure of the present application; the secondary battery of Comparative Example 7 has a first adhesive coating on both sides of its isolation membrane rather than the isolation membrane structure of the present application; the secondary battery of Comparative Example 8 has a second adhesive coating on both sides of its isolation membrane rather than the isolation membrane structure of the present application, and has an embedded single-pole ear structure rather than the multi-pole ear structure of the present application; the secondary battery of Comparative Example 9 has a first adhesive coating on both sides of its isolation membrane , rather than the isolation membrane structure of the present application, and it has an embedded single-pole ear structure rather than the multi-pole ear structure of the present application; in the secondary batteries of Comparative Examples 1 to Comparative Examples 9, the adhesion F1 of the isolation membrane to the positive electrode sheet and / or the adhesion F2 of the isolation membrane to the negative electrode sheet are low, and the secondary battery has a higher ohmic impedance, a longer charging time (that is, a lower charging speed) and a higher charging temperature rise under a charging rate of 10C, indicating that the secondary battery has poor dynamic performance under fast charging conditions, or the secondary battery has a lower capacity retention rate under a charging rate of 10C, indicating that the secondary battery has lower cycle performance under fast charging conditions, or the secondary battery has a lower 1.5m drop pass rate, indicating that the secondary battery has lower mechanical reliability. Therefore, the secondary batteries of the comparative examples of the present application cannot take into account the dynamic performance, cycle performance and mechanical reliability under fast charging conditions.
[0206] The average particle size of the first polymer binder generally affects the kinetic performance, cycle performance, and mechanical reliability of the secondary battery. As can be seen from Examples 1-1 to 1-5, Comparative Examples 1 and 2, a secondary battery using an average particle size of the first polymer binder within the range of this application has a lower ohmic impedance, a shorter charging time, and a lower charging temperature rise at a charge rate of 10C, indicating that the secondary battery has good kinetic performance under fast charging conditions. The secondary battery has a higher capacity retention rate at a charge rate of 10C, indicating that the secondary battery has good cycle performance under fast charging conditions. The secondary battery has a higher 1.5m drop pass rate, indicating that the secondary battery has good mechanical reliability. Thus, the secondary battery can balance kinetic performance, cycle performance, and mechanical reliability under fast charging conditions. Among them, compared with Example 1-2 and Example 1-5, the average particle size of the first polymer binder in Example 1-1, Example 1-3 and Example 1-4 is in the preferred range of 0.6μm to 1.6μm, which has lower ohmic impedance, shorter charging time, lower charging temperature rise, higher drop pass rate, and higher capacity retention rate, indicating that the secondary battery with the average particle size of the first polymer binder in the preferred range of 0.6μm to 1.6μm has good dynamic performance and mechanical reliability under fast charging conditions, and has higher cycle performance.
[0207] The average particle size of the second polymer binder generally affects the kinetic performance, cycle performance, and mechanical reliability of the secondary battery. As can be seen from Examples 1-1, 1-6, 1-9, Comparative Examples 3, and 4, a secondary battery having an average particle size of the second polymer binder within the range of the present application has a lower ohmic impedance, a shorter charging time, and a lower charging temperature rise at a charging rate of 10C, indicating that the secondary battery has good kinetic performance under fast charging conditions. The secondary battery has a higher capacity retention rate at a charging rate of 10C, indicating that the secondary battery has good cycle performance under fast charging conditions. The secondary battery has a higher 1.5m drop pass rate, indicating that the secondary battery has good mechanical reliability. Thus, the secondary battery can take into account kinetic performance, cycle performance, and mechanical reliability under fast charging conditions. Among them, compared with Example 1-6 and Example 1-9, the average particle size of the second polymer binder in Example 1-1, Example 1-7 and Example 1-8 is in the preferred range of 8μm to 12μm, which has lower ohmic impedance, shorter charging time, lower charging temperature rise, and higher capacity retention rate and drop pass rate, indicating that the secondary battery with the average particle size of the second polymer binder in the preferred range of 8μm to 12μm has good dynamic performance under fast charging conditions, and has higher cycle performance and mechanical reliability.
[0208] The values of N1 and N2 often affect the kinetic performance, cycle performance, and mechanical reliability of secondary batteries. As can be seen from Examples 1-1, 1-10, and 1-11, as N1 and N2 increase, the secondary battery's ohmic impedance charging time and charging temperature rise both improve. However, the number of tabs decreases as N1 and N2 increase. Therefore, the energy density of Examples 1-10 and 1-11 is greater than that of Example 1-1.
[0209] The coverage rate Cr1 of the first polymer binder in the first bonding coating per unit area, the single-sided coating weight Cw1 of the first bonding coating, and the thickness H1 of the first bonding coating generally affect the dynamic performance, cycle performance, and mechanical reliability of the secondary battery. As can be seen from Examples 1-1, 1-12, and 1-17, a secondary battery having a coverage rate Cr1 of the first polymer binder in the first bonding coating per unit area, a single-sided coating weight Cw1 of the first bonding coating, and a thickness H1 of the first bonding coating within the scope of the present application is selected, which has a lower ohmic impedance, a shorter charging time, and a lower charging temperature rise at a charging rate of 10C, indicating that the secondary battery has good dynamic performance under fast charging conditions, the secondary battery has a higher capacity retention rate at a charging rate of 10C, indicating that the secondary battery has good cycle performance under fast charging conditions, and the secondary battery has a higher 1.5m drop pass rate, indicating that the secondary battery has good mechanical reliability. Thus, the secondary battery can take into account dynamic performance, cycle performance, and mechanical reliability under fast charging conditions.
[0210] The coverage Cr2 of the second polymer binder in the second bonding coat per unit area, the single-sided coating weight Cw2 of the second bonding coat, and the thickness H2 of the second bonding coat generally affect the dynamics, cycle performance, and mechanical reliability of the secondary battery. From Example 1-1, Example 1-18 to Example 1-23, it can be seen that the coverage Cr2 of the second polymer binder in the second bonding coat per unit area, the single-sided coating weight Cw2 of the second bonding coat, and the thickness H2 of the second bonding coat are selected to be in the secondary battery within the scope of the present application, which has lower ohmic impedance, shorter charging time (i.e., higher charging speed) and lower charging temperature rise under a charging rate of 10C, indicating that the secondary battery has good dynamics under fast charging conditions, and the secondary battery has a higher capacity retention rate under a charging rate of 10C, indicating that the secondary battery has good cycle performance under fast charging conditions, and the secondary battery has a higher 1.5m drop pass rate, indicating that the secondary battery has good mechanical reliability, and thus, the secondary battery can take into account dynamics, cycle performance, and mechanical reliability under fast charging conditions.
[0211] The positional relationship between the first and second adhesive coatings in the separator and the positive and negative electrode sheets typically affects the dynamic performance, cycling performance, and mechanical reliability of a secondary battery. As can be seen from Examples 1-1 and 1-24, the poor adhesion between the second polymer binder, polyvinylidene fluoride, and the negative electrode sheet results in a low adhesion force F2 between the separator and the negative electrode sheet, resulting in poor drop resistance for the battery in Example 1-24 relative to that of Example 1-1. Furthermore, because the second adhesive coating in Example 1-24 corresponds to the negative electrode sheet, the lithium ion transmission path is longer during fast charging, resulting in a slightly longer charging time for Example 1-24 than for Example 1-1.
[0212] Table 3
[0213] The type of the first polymer binder generally affects the dynamic performance, cycle performance, and mechanical reliability of the secondary battery. As can be seen from Examples 1-1, 2-1, and 2-2, the secondary battery using the first polymer binder within the scope of the present application has a lower ohmic impedance, a shorter charging time, and a lower charging temperature rise at a charging rate of 10C, indicating that the secondary battery has good dynamic performance under fast charging conditions. The secondary battery has a higher capacity retention rate at a charging rate of 10C, indicating that the secondary battery has good cycle performance under fast charging conditions. The secondary battery has a higher 1.5m drop pass rate, indicating that the secondary battery has good mechanical reliability. Therefore, the secondary battery can take into account dynamic performance, cycle performance, and mechanical reliability under fast charging conditions.
[0214] The type of second polymer binder generally affects the dynamic performance, cycle performance, and mechanical reliability of the secondary battery. As can be seen from Examples 1-1, 2-3, and 2-4, the secondary battery using the type of second polymer binder within the scope of this application has a lower ohmic impedance, a shorter charging time, and a lower charging temperature rise at a charging rate of 10C, indicating that the secondary battery has good dynamic performance under fast charging conditions. The secondary battery has a high capacity retention rate at a charging rate of 10C, indicating that the secondary battery has good cycle performance under fast charging conditions. The secondary battery has a high 1.5m drop pass rate, indicating that the secondary battery has good mechanical reliability. Therefore, the secondary battery can take into account dynamic performance, cycle performance, and mechanical reliability under fast charging conditions.

[0217] Table 5
[0218] The arrangement of the ceramic coating in the isolation membrane usually affects the dynamic performance, cycle performance, mechanical reliability and thermal safety performance of the fast-charged secondary battery. It can be seen from Examples 1-1, 3-1 and 3-3 that the arrangement of the ceramic coating in the isolation membrane can further improve the thermal safety performance of the fast-charged secondary battery on the basis of having good dynamic performance, cycle performance and mechanical reliability; the fast-charged secondary battery in which the number and positional relationship of the ceramic coating arranged in the isolation membrane are within the scope of this application has a lower ohmic impedance, a shorter charging time and a lower charging temperature rise at a charging rate of 10C, indicating that the secondary battery has good dynamic performance under fast-charge conditions, the secondary battery has a higher capacity retention rate at a charging rate of 10C, indicating that the secondary battery has good cycle performance under fast-charge conditions, the secondary battery has a higher 1.5m drop pass rate, indicating that the secondary battery has good mechanical reliability, the secondary battery has a higher hot box pass rate, indicating that the secondary battery has good thermal safety performance.

As a result, the secondary battery can take into account kinetic performance, cycle performance and mechanical reliability under fast-charge conditions, and has good thermal safety performance.
[0220] The thickness H3 of the ceramic coating usually affects the dynamic performance, cycle performance, mechanical reliability and thermal safety performance of the fast-charged secondary battery. It can be seen from Example 1-1, Example 3-9 to Example 3-12 that the fast-charged secondary battery with the thickness H3 of the ceramic coating selected within the scope of this application has a lower ohmic impedance, a shorter charging time and a lower charging temperature rise at a charging rate of 10C, indicating that the secondary battery has good dynamic performance under fast-charge conditions, the secondary battery has a higher capacity retention rate at a charging rate of 10C, indicating that the secondary battery has good cycle performance under fast-charge conditions, the secondary battery has a higher 1.5m drop pass rate, indicating that the secondary battery has good mechanical reliability, the secondary battery has a higher hot box pass rate, indicating that the secondary battery has good thermal safety performance.
