Description

Non-aqueous electrolyte and lithium-ion battery Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of battery materials, and in particular relates to a non-aqueous electrolyte and a lithium-ion battery. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, lithium-ion batteries have been widely used in energy storage and power applications due to their high energy density and long cycle life. As lithium-ion battery applications become increasingly popular, consumer requirements for energy storage and new energy vehicles, as well as their application scenarios, continue to rise. Lithium-ion secondary batteries, represented by phosphates as active materials, offer significant advantages, including longer calendar life, low cost, and high safety. With recent improvements in materials and battery structure design to address energy density shortcomings, phosphate systems have gained a significant market share. However, a major drawback of phosphate systems is their poor intrinsic ion conductivity and insufficient low-temperature performance, which limits their application in passenger vehicles. In particular, as the electrode compaction and areal density of cylindrical battery cells continue to increase, the cell's electrolyte absorption rate slows during filling, leading to uneven electrolyte distribution. This not only affects production efficiency but also leads to high impedance, low capacity, and poor battery life. Black spots and lithium deposition are more likely to form in the center of the cell casing, and long-term cycling can lead to electrolyte drop, resulting in insufficient electrochemical performance at both high and low temperatures.

[0035] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects solved by the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0036] In the description of the present invention, "density of the non-aqueous electrolyte" refers to the density of the non-aqueous electrolyte tested at a temperature of 25±0.1°C.

[0037] One embodiment of the present invention provides a non-aqueous electrolyte, comprising a non-aqueous organic solvent, a lithium salt, and an additive, wherein the additive comprises a compound represented by Structural Formula 1, the non-aqueous organic solvent comprises a compound represented by Structural Formula 2, and the lithium salt comprises lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide;

[0038] wherein n is an integer selected from 1 to 5, R1 and R2 are each independently selected from hydrogen, halogen, C1-C5 alkyl or C1-C5 haloalkyl, and R1 and R2 are not both selected from hydrogen;

[0039] wherein R3 is selected from a C1-C3 alkyl group or a halogenated alkyl group, and R4 is selected from a C1-C4 alkyl group or a halogenated alkyl group;

[0040] The non-aqueous electrolyte satisfies the following conditions:

[0041] And 4.5≤A≤13, 0.5≤B≤4, 5≤C≤30, 1.120≤P≤1.240;

[0042] Wherein, A is the mass percentage of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide in the non-aqueous electrolyte, in %.

[0043] B is the mass percentage of the compound represented by structural formula 1 in the non-aqueous electrolyte, in %;

[0044] C is the mass percentage of the compound represented by structural formula 2 in the non-aqueous electrolyte, in %;

[0045] P is the density of the non-aqueous electrolyte, in g / cm 3 .

[0046] In the non-aqueous electrolyte, lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide is used as a lithium salt, a compound shown in structural formula 1 is added as an additive, and a compound shown in structural formula 2 is used as a non-aqueous organic solvent. The inventors have found through extensive research that when the mass percentage A of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide, the mass percentage B of the compound shown in structural formula 1, the mass percentage C of the compound shown in structural formula 2 and the density P of the non-aqueous electrolyte meet the conditions When 4.5≤A≤13, 0.5≤B≤4, 5≤C≤30, and 1.120≤P≤1.240, the obtained non-aqueous electrolyte can effectively improve the low-temperature performance of the battery while ensuring the high-temperature cycle performance and high-temperature storage performance of the battery. It is speculated that this is because the compound shown in structural formula 1 has good high-temperature stability, is not easily oxidized and reduced to open the ring during the battery charge and discharge process, and has a weak polarity, which easily promotes the dissociation of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide in the electrolyte, making FSI -Anions gradually become the dominant force in interfacial chemical reactions, affecting the film formation of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide on the negative electrode surface. The compound represented by structural formula 2 has a relatively low viscosity as a non-aqueous organic solvent. On the one hand, it offsets the viscosity increase caused by the compound represented by structural formula 1. On the other hand, by adjusting the density of the non-aqueous electrolyte, it also improves the permeability of the non-aqueous electrolyte, improves the ionic conductivity, affects the contact between the non-aqueous electrolyte and the negative electrode interface during the formation process, and adjusts the film density and stability of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide. Ultimately, a non-aqueous electrolyte that can take into account both high and low temperature performance is obtained. In particular, the non-aqueous electrolyte has a significant electrochemical performance improvement effect on high-density battery systems.

[0047] In a preferred embodiment, the non-aqueous electrolyte satisfies the following conditions:

[0048] When the mass percentage A of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide, the mass percentage B of the compound shown in Structural Formula 1, the mass percentage C of the compound shown in Structural Formula 2 and the density P of the non-aqueous electrolyte further meet the above conditions, the film-forming quality of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide and the permeability of the electrolyte can be further improved, thereby improving the high-temperature cycle stability and low-temperature capacity retention rate of the battery.

[0049] In a specific embodiment, the mass percentage A of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide in the non-aqueous electrolyte can be 4.5%, 4.8%, 5.0%, 5.4%, 5.8%, 6.0%, 6.9%, 7.2%, 8.0%, 8.5%, 9.3%, 9.6%, 10.2%, 11.4%, 12.3%, 12.8%, 13%, or any range consisting of the above values.

[0050] In a preferred embodiment, the mass percentage A of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide in the non-aqueous electrolyte is 6.5% to 12.7%.

[0051] In the non-aqueous electrolyte, the lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide is the main component involved in the formation of the passivation film on the surface of the negative electrode, and the film formation quality of the lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide is affected by various factors. Specifically, when the mass percentage of the lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide in the non-aqueous electrolyte is too low, a complete passivation film cannot be formed on the surface of the negative electrode during formation, and the battery will further consume other lithium salts or solvent components in the non-aqueous electrolyte during the cycle, thereby causing the battery capacity to decrease; when the mass percentage of the lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide in the non-aqueous electrolyte is too high, it is easy to cause the film thickness on the surface of the negative electrode to be too large, thereby causing the battery impedance to increase, and affecting the low-temperature performance of the battery.

[0052] In a specific embodiment, the mass percentage B of the compound represented by structural formula 1 in the non-aqueous electrolyte can be 0.5%, 1%, 2%, 2.2%, 2.5%, 2.8%, 3%, 3.2%, 3.5%, 3.8%, 4% or any range consisting of the above values.

[0053] In a preferred embodiment, the mass percentage B of the compound represented by structural formula 1 in the non-aqueous electrolyte is 1% to 2.5%.

[0054] The compound shown in the structural formula 1 is a cyclic structure with high stability. It is not easily oxidized and reduced to open the ring during the charge and discharge process of the battery. Its weak polarity makes the FSI- anion of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide more abundant in the solvent sheath. - Anions gradually become the dominant force in interfacial chemical reactions, and the desolvation kinetics are high, promoting the formation of a more complete SEI film at the negative electrode and reducing the electroreactive area of ​​the interfacial film. When the mass percentage of the compound represented by Structural Formula 1 in the non-aqueous electrolyte is too low, it is difficult to promote the film formation of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide. When the mass percentage of the compound represented by Structural Formula 1 in the non-aqueous electrolyte is too high, the high viscosity of the compound represented by Structural Formula 1 itself will affect the electrolyte's penetration efficiency in the positive and negative electrode material layers, reducing ionic conductivity and hindering the improvement of low-temperature performance.

[0055] In a specific embodiment, the mass percentage C of the compound represented by structural formula 2 in the non-aqueous electrolyte can be 5%, 8%, 9%, 10%, 12%, 14%, 17%, 19%, 21%, 22%, 24%, 27%, 29%, 30% or any range consisting of the above values.

[0056] In a preferred embodiment, the mass percentage C of the compound represented by structural formula 2 in the non-aqueous electrolyte is 15% to 25%.

[0057] The viscosity of the compound represented by Structural Formula 2 offsets the increased viscosity of the compound represented by Structural Formula 1. At the same time, the compound represented by Structural Formula 2 has a lower boiling point as a non-aqueous organic solvent. By adding the compound represented by Structural Formula 1, the boiling point of the non-aqueous electrolyte can be increased, so that the infiltration rate and high-temperature performance of the battery are balanced. On the other hand, the compound represented by Structural Formula 1 and the compound represented by Structural Formula 2 can make the dissociation efficiency of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide higher, the electrolyte fluidity is good, and the lithium ion penetration effect in the gap between the electrode and the diaphragm is better, avoiding the failure of electrical performance caused by local electrolyte consumption being too fast and unable to be filled evenly in time. When the mass percentage of the compound represented by Structural Formula 2 in the non-aqueous electrolyte is too low, the viscosity of the non-aqueous electrolyte is high, affecting the conduction and penetration efficiency of lithium ions on the electrode and the dissociation of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide. When the mass percentage of the compound represented by Structural Formula 2 in the non-aqueous electrolyte is too high, the boiling point of the non-aqueous electrolyte is low, affecting the high-temperature performance of the battery.

[0058] In a specific embodiment, the density P of the non-aqueous electrolyte is 1.120 g / cm 3 , 1.130g / cm 3 、1.145g / cm 3 、1.160g / cm 3 , 1.175g / cm 3 , 1.180g / cm 3 , 1.195g / cm 3 , 1.200g / cm 3 、1.210g / cm 3 , 1.220g / cm 3 , 1.225g / cm 3 、1.230g / cm 3 , 1.240g / cm 3 or any range consisting of the above values.

[0059] In a preferred embodiment, the density P of the non-aqueous electrolyte is 1.140-1.195 g / cm 3 .

[0060] The density of the non-aqueous electrolyte is affected by the type and content of each component therein. The density P of the non-aqueous electrolyte can to some extent reflect the overall filling capacity of the non-aqueous electrolyte in the electrode and the gap. When the density of the non-aqueous electrolyte is too low, the molar number of lithium salt per unit gap is low, and it is impossible to ensure that there are sufficient lithium ions to effectively and quickly repair the SEI film during the charge and discharge process, resulting in a decrease in film quality; when the density of the non-aqueous electrolyte is too high, the density of the non-aqueous organic solvent is relatively large. Although the molar number of lithium salt per unit gap is high, the slow migration rate will also cause the SEI film to repair at an insufficient speed.

[0061] In some embodiments, the compound represented by Structural Formula 1 includes one or more of the following compounds:

[0062] In some embodiments, the compound represented by structural formula 2 includes one or more of propyl propionate, ethyl propionate, ethyl acetate, difluoroethyl acetate, methyl acetate, methyl propionate, ethyl butyrate, propyl acetate, butyl acetate, and propyl butyrate.

[0063] In some preferred embodiments, R3 in Structural Formula 2 is selected from a C1-C3 alkyl group or a halogenated alkyl group, and R4 is selected from a C2-C3 alkyl group or a halogenated alkyl group. More preferably, the compound represented by Structural Formula 2 comprises one or more of propyl propionate, ethyl propionate, ethyl acetate, and difluoroethyl acetate.

[0064] In some embodiments, the lithium salt further comprises lithium hexafluorophosphate, and the content ratio of the lithium hexafluorophosphate to the lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide is (1% to 13%): (4.5% to 13%).

[0065] The non-aqueous electrolyte further comprises a liquid selected from the group consisting of LiTFSI, LiBOB, LiDFOB, LiDFOP, LiPO2F2, LiBF4, LiSbF6, LiAsF6, LiN(SO2CF3)2, LiN(SO2C2F5)2, LiC(SO2CF3)3, LiClO4, LiAlCl4, LiCF3SO3, LiSO3F, Li2B 10 Cl 10 , lithium chloroborane, lithium tetrafluorooxalophosphate, lithium trioxalophosphate, a lower aliphatic carboxylic acid lithium having 4 or less carbon atoms, or at least one lithium salt of lithium tetraphenylborate.

[0066] In some embodiments, the total weight percentage of the lithium salt in the non-aqueous electrolyte is 13% to 18%. Specifically, the total weight percentage of the lithium salt in the non-aqueous electrolyte can be 13%, 14%, 15%, 16%, 17%, or 18%.

[0067] In some preferred embodiments, the lithium salt includes at least LiPF6 and LiFSI.

[0068] In some embodiments, based on the total mass of the non-aqueous electrolyte being 100%, the mass content of the non-aqueous organic solvent is 65% to 90%.

[0069] Specifically, based on the total mass of the non-aqueous electrolyte as 100%, the mass content of the non-aqueous organic solvent can be 65%, 68%, 71%, 74%, 76%, 78%, 79%, 80%, 81.5%, 82%, 84%, 85%, 86%, 87%, 89% or 90%.

[0070] In some embodiments, the non-aqueous organic solvent further comprises at least one of an ether solvent, a nitrile solvent, a carbonate solvent, and a sulfone solvent.

[0071] In some embodiments, the ether solvent includes a cyclic ether or a chain ether, preferably a chain ether with 3 to 10 carbon atoms and a cyclic ether with 3 to 6 carbon atoms. The cyclic ether may be, but is not limited to, at least one of 1,3-dioxolane (DOL), 1,4-dioxolane (DX), a crown ether, tetrahydrofuran (THF), 2-methyltetrahydrofuran (2-CH3-THF), and 2-trifluoromethyltetrahydrofuran (2-CF3-THF). The chain ether may be, but is not limited to, dimethoxymethane, diethoxymethane, ethoxymethoxymethane, ethylene glycol di-n-propyl ether, ethylene glycol di-n-butyl ether, and diethylene glycol dimethyl ether. Because chain ethers have high solvation ability with lithium ions and can improve ion dissociation, dimethoxymethane, diethoxymethane, and ethoxymethoxymethane are particularly preferred because they have low viscosity and can impart high ionic conductivity. The ether compound may be used alone or in any combination and ratio. The content of the ether compound is not particularly limited and is any amount that does not significantly impair the effect of the high-density lithium-ion battery of the present invention. The ether compound is generally present in an amount of 1% by volume or greater, preferably 2% by volume or greater, and more preferably 3% by volume or greater, based on 100% by volume of the non-aqueous solvent. Furthermore, the ether compound is generally present in an amount of 30% by volume or less, preferably 25% by volume or less, and more preferably 20% by volume or less.

[0072] In some embodiments, the nitrile solvent may be, but is not limited to, at least one of acetonitrile, glutaronitrile, and malononitrile.

[0073] In some embodiments, the carbonate solvent includes a cyclic carbonate or a chain carbonate. The cyclic carbonate can be, but is not limited to, at least one of ethylene carbonate (EC), propylene carbonate (PC), γ-butyrolactone (GBL), and butylene carbonate (BC); the chain carbonate can be, but is not limited to, at least one of dimethyl carbonate (DMC), ethyl methyl carbonate (EMC), diethyl carbonate (DEC), and dipropyl carbonate (DPC). The content of the cyclic carbonate is not particularly limited and is arbitrary within the range that does not significantly damage the effect of the lithium-ion battery of the present invention. However, when using one alone, the lower limit of its content is generally 3% or more by volume, preferably 5% or more by volume, relative to the total amount of solvent in the non-aqueous electrolyte. By setting this range, the decrease in conductivity due to the decrease in the dielectric constant of the non-aqueous electrolyte can be avoided, and it is easy to achieve a good range of high current discharge characteristics, stability relative to the negative electrode, and cycle characteristics of the non-aqueous electrolyte battery. In addition, the upper limit is generally 90% or less by volume, preferably 85% or less by volume, and more preferably 80% or less by volume. By setting this scope, the oxidation / reduction tolerance of nonaqueous electrolyte can be improved, thereby contributing to the stability during high temperature storage. The content of linear carbonate is not particularly limited, and relative to the total amount of solvent of nonaqueous electrolyte, is usually more than 15% by volume, preferably more than 20% by volume, and more preferably more than 25% by volume. In addition, usually the volume ratio is less than 90%, preferably less than 85% by volume, and more preferably less than 80% by volume. By making the content of linear carbonate in the above-mentioned scope, it is easy to make the viscosity of nonaqueous electrolyte reach appropriate range, suppress the reduction of ionic conductivity, and then contribute to the output characteristics of nonaqueous electrolyte battery reach good scope. When using two or more linear carbonates in combination, make the total amount of linear carbonate meet the above-mentioned scope.

[0074] In certain embodiments, also can preferably use the linear carbonates with fluorine atoms (hereinafter referred to as " fluorinated linear carbonate ").The number of the fluorine atoms possessed by fluorinated linear carbonate is as long as being more than 1 then has no particular restrictions, but is generally below 6, preferably below 4.When fluorinated linear carbonate has a plurality of fluorine atoms, these fluorine atoms can be bonded on the same carbon, also can be bonded on different carbons.As fluorinated linear carbonate, can enumerate, fluorinated dimethyl carbonate derivatives, fluorinated ethyl methyl carbonate derivatives, fluorinated diethyl carbonate derivatives etc.

[0075] In some embodiments, the sulfone solvent includes a cyclic sulfone and a chain sulfone. Preferably, in the case of a cyclic sulfone, the compound generally has 3 to 6 carbon atoms, preferably 3 to 5 carbon atoms; in the case of a chain sulfone, the compound generally has 2 to 6 carbon atoms, preferably 2 to 5 carbon atoms. The content of the sulfone solvent is not particularly limited and is arbitrary within a range that does not significantly impair the effect of the lithium-ion battery of the present invention. The volume ratio is generally 0.3% or more, preferably 0.5% or more, and more preferably 1% or more relative to the total volume of the solvent in the non-aqueous electrolyte. In addition, the volume ratio is generally 40% or less, preferably 35% or less, and more preferably 30% or less. When two or more sulfone solvents are used in combination, the total amount of the sulfone solvents can be adjusted to meet the above range. When the sulfone solvent content is within the above range, a non-aqueous electrolyte with excellent high-temperature storage stability tends to be obtained.

[0129] (1) The test results obtained in Examples 1 to 21 and Comparative Examples 1 to 15 and 21 to 27 are shown in Table 2.

[0130] Table 2

[0131] From the test results of Examples 1 to 21 and Comparative Examples 1 to 15 and 21 to 27, it can be seen that in an electrolyte system using lithium bisfluorosulfonyl imide as the main lithium salt, the compound represented by Structural Formula 1 is added as an additive, and the compound represented by Structural Formula 2 is used as a non-aqueous organic solvent, the mass percentage A of lithium bisfluorosulfonyl imide, the mass percentage B of the compound represented by Structural Formula 1, the mass percentage C of the compound represented by Structural Formula 2, and the density P of the non-aqueous electrolyte have a significant correlation in improving the high and low temperature performance of the battery. When the mass percentage A of lithium bisfluorosulfonyl imide, the mass percentage B of the compound represented by Structural Formula 1, the mass percentage C of the compound represented by Structural Formula 2, and the density P of the non-aqueous electrolyte satisfy the relationship: When 4.5≤A≤13, 0.5≤B≤4, 5≤C≤30, and 1.120≤P≤1.240, the obtained lithium-ion battery has a low impedance, can have a high capacity retention rate under low temperature discharge conditions, and has a high capacity retention rate after high temperature storage, and does not have the problem of lithium precipitation. It is speculated that this is because lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide forms a film on the surface of the negative electrode, and the compound shown in structural formula 1 has good high temperature stability. It is not easy to be oxidized and reduced and open the ring during the battery charge and discharge process, and its polarity is weak, which easily promotes the dissociation of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide in the electrolyte, making FSI - Anions gradually become the dominant force in interfacial chemical reactions, affecting the film formation of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide on the negative electrode surface. The compound represented by structural formula 2 has a relatively low viscosity as a non-aqueous organic solvent. On the one hand, it offsets the viscosity increase caused by the compound represented by structural formula 1. On the other hand, by adjusting the density of the non-aqueous electrolyte, it also improves the permeability of the non-aqueous electrolyte, improves the ionic conductivity, affects the contact between the non-aqueous electrolyte and the negative electrode interface during the formation process, and adjusts the film density and stability of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide, ultimately obtaining a non-aqueous electrolyte that can take into account both high and low temperature performance.

[0132] From the test results of Examples 1-21, it can be seen that when the mass percentage A of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide, the mass percentage B of the compound shown in Structural Formula 1, the mass percentage C of the compound shown in Structural Formula 2 and the density P of the non-aqueous electrolyte further meet the conditions When 6.5≤A≤12.7, 1≤B≤2.5, 15≤C≤25, and 1.140≤P≤1.195, the obtained lithium ion battery has the best comprehensive performance.

[0133] From the test results of Comparative Examples 1 to 15, it can be seen that when one or more of the A value, B value, C value and P value exceeds the limit range, even if the relationship formula is satisfied: The capacity retention rate of the lithium-ion battery obtained at low temperature or high temperature storage is also low, indicating that when the mass percentage A of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide, the mass percentage B of the compound shown in structural formula 1, the mass percentage C of the compound shown in structural formula 2 and the density P of the non-aqueous electrolyte are too high or too low, the film density and stability of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide on the surface of the negative electrode material layer will be affected, resulting in an increase in film resistance and the occurrence of lithium precipitation. From the test results of comparative examples 21 to 27, it can be seen that even if the A value, B value, C value and P value all meet the parameter range limits, If the value is too large or too small, it will lead to the deterioration of the low-temperature performance and high-temperature performance of the battery, indicating that the mass percentage A of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide, the mass percentage B of the compound shown in structural formula 1, the mass percentage C of the compound shown in structural formula 2 and the density P of the non-aqueous electrolyte have an impact on each other. When and only when the four reach a good balance, can the low-temperature performance and high-temperature performance of the lithium-ion battery be significantly improved.

[0134] (2) The test results obtained in Examples 22 to 26 and Comparative Examples 16 to 20 are entered in Table 3.

[0135] Table 3

[0136] From the test results of Examples 22 to 26 and Comparative Examples 16 to 20, it can be seen that when LiNi 0.8 Co 0.1 Mn 0.1 When O2 (NCM811) is used as the positive electrode active material system, the mass percentage A of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide, the mass percentage B of the compound represented by structural formula 1, the mass percentage C of the compound represented by structural formula 2, and the density P of the non-aqueous electrolyte satisfy the relationship: When 4.5≤A≤13, 0.5≤B≤4, 5≤C≤30, and 1.120≤P≤1.240, the effect played is similar to that of using LiFePO4 as the positive electrode active material, and both have a good improvement effect on the high and low temperature performance of the lithium-ion battery, effectively improving and reducing the impedance of the lithium-ion battery and reducing the occurrence of lithium dendrites, indicating that the relationship provided by the present invention is applicable to different positive electrode material systems.

[0137] (2) The test results obtained in Examples 18, 27 to 33 are entered in Table 4.

[0138] Table 4

[0139] From the test results of Examples 18 and 27 to 33, it can be seen that in the battery system provided by the present invention, when different compounds represented by Structural Formula 1 or different compounds represented by Structural Formula 2 are used, the high-temperature and low-temperature capacity retention rates of the lithium-ion battery can be improved, and the lithium plating at the negative electrode of the battery can be reduced. This illustrates the types of roles played by different compounds represented by Structural Formula 1 and different compounds represented by Structural Formula 2 in the battery system of the present invention, and the relationship provided by the present invention is applicable to different compounds represented by Structural Formula 1 and different compounds represented by Structural Formula 2.
