Abstract
Description
Elastic sheet for all-solid-state battery and all-solid-state battery including same
[0001] The present invention relates to an elastic sheet for an all-solid-state battery and an all-solid-state battery including the same.
[0002]
[0003] Lithium secondary batteries are rechargeable and have an energy density per unit weight that is three times higher than that of conventional lead-acid batteries, nickel-cadmium batteries, nickel-metal hydride batteries, and nickel-zinc batteries, and they are capable of fast charging. Therefore, they are commercialized for use in laptops, cell phones, power tools, and electric bicycles, and active research and development is being conducted to further improve energy density.
[0004] Lithium secondary batteries currently on the market are lithium-ion batteries that use electrolytes containing flammable organic solvents. This poses safety concerns, as they can explode or cause fire in the event of collisions or penetration. Therefore, all-solid-state batteries, which use solid electrolytes instead of the electrolyte, are being proposed.
[0005]
[0006] One embodiment provides an elastic sheet for an all-solid-state battery having a combination of stress relaxation properties and resilience.
[0007] Another embodiment provides an all-solid-state battery comprising the elastic sheet.
[0008]
[0009] One embodiment provides an elastic sheet for an all-solid-state battery, comprising: a polyurethane film; a first (meth)acrylate-based resin layer positioned on one surface of the polyurethane film; and a second (meth)acrylate-based resin layer positioned on the other surface of the polyurethane film.
[0010] Another embodiment provides an all-solid-state battery comprising the elastic sheet; and an electrode assembly, wherein the electrode assembly comprises a positive electrode; a negative electrode; and a solid electrolyte layer positioned between the positive electrode and the negative electrode, and the elastic sheet is positioned on the outside of at least one of the positive electrode and the negative electrode.
[0011]
[0012] An elastic sheet according to one embodiment can improve the life characteristics of an all-solid-state battery including the same by harmonizing stress relaxation characteristics and resilience.
[0013]
[0014] Figures 1 and 2 are cross-sectional views schematically illustrating an all-solid-state battery according to one embodiment.
[0015]

[0017] Unless otherwise specified herein, when a part such as a layer, film, region, plate, etc. is said to be “on” another part, this includes not only cases where it is “directly on” the other part, but also cases where there is another part in between.
[0018] Unless otherwise specified herein, the singular may also include the plural. Furthermore, unless otherwise specified, "A or B" may mean "including A, including B, or including A and B."
[0019] As used herein, “combination thereof” may mean mixtures, laminates, composites, copolymers, alloys, blends, and reaction products of the components.
[0020] In this specification, (meth)acrylate is a concept that includes acrylate and methacrylate.
[0021] In this specification, “weight average molecular weight” is a value measured by gel permeation chromatography (GPC: gel permeation chromatography, PL GPC220, Agilent Technologies) and corrected with a third-order function using polystyrene.
[0022] In this specification, “thickness” may be measured by a photograph taken with an optical microscope, such as a scanning electron microscope, or by a thickness measuring device.
[0023]
[0024] (Elastic sheet)
[0025] One embodiment provides an elastic sheet for an all-solid-state battery, comprising: a polyurethane film; a first (meth)acrylate-based resin layer positioned on one surface of the polyurethane film; and a second (meth)acrylate-based resin layer positioned on the other surface of the polyurethane film.
[0026] An elastic sheet according to one embodiment can improve the life characteristics of an all-solid-state battery including the same by harmonizing stress relaxation characteristics and resilience.
[0027]
[0028] Hereinafter, an elastic sheet according to an embodiment is described in detail.
[0029]
[0030] polyurethane film
[0031] The above polyurethane film contributes to the resilience of the elastic sheet.
[0032]
[0033] The above polyurethane film may have a melt index (MI) of 5 to 12 g / 10 min measured at a temperature of 210°C and 2.16 kg.
[0034]
[0035]
[0036] The thickness of the above polyurethane film may be 10 to 100 μm, 30 to 80 μm, or 40 to 60 μm. An excellent polyurethane film can be exhibited within the above range.
[0037]
[0038] The above polyurethane film may be extruded using TPU pellets.
[0039]
[0040] (Meth)acrylate resin layer
[0041] The first (meth)acrylate-based resin layer and the second (meth)acrylate-based resin layer each contribute to the stress relaxation properties of the elastic sheet.
[0042]
[0043] (meth)acrylate copolymer
[0044] The first (meth)acrylate-based resin layer and the second (meth)acrylate-based resin layer may each include a (meth)acrylate-based copolymer.
[0045] The (meth)acrylate copolymer is a component forming the basic skeleton of each of the first (meth)acrylate resin layer and the second (meth)acrylate resin layer, and is a polymer having excellent stress relaxation properties. Accordingly, an elastic sheet including the (meth)acrylate copolymer can improve the life characteristics of an all-solid-state battery by suppressing damage to the solid electrolyte during the manufacturing process of the all-solid-state battery or the charging / discharging process of the manufactured all-solid-state battery.
[0046]
[0047] The above (meth)acrylate copolymer may be a ternary copolymer including a first structural unit derived from a C1 to C20 linear alkyl (meth)acrylate, a second structural unit derived from a C1 to C20 cyclic alkyl (meth)acrylate, and a third structural unit derived from a C1 to C20 alkyl (meth)acrylate containing a hydroxyl group.
[0048]
[0049] With respect to the total amount of the (meth)acrylate copolymer, the first structural unit may be included in an amount of 30 to 70 wt%, or 40 to 60 wt%; the second structural unit may be included in an amount of 20 to 60 wt%, or 30 to 50 wt%; and the third structural unit may be included in an amount of 1 to 30 wt%, or 5 to 15 wt%.
[0050] In the above range, the stress relaxation properties of the (meth)acrylate copolymer can be excellently expressed.
[0051]
[0052] The above C1 to C20 linear alkyl (meth)acrylate may be 2-ethylhexyl (meth)acrylate, 2-ethylpentyl (meth)acrylate, 2-ethylheptyl (meth)acrylate, 2-ethylnonyl (meth)acrylate, 2-propylhexyl (meth)acrylate, 2-propyloctyl (meth)acrylate, or a combination thereof.
[0053] The above C1 to C20 cyclic alkyl (meth)acrylate may be isobornyl (meth)acrylate, cyclohexyl (meth)acrylate, cyclopentyl (meth)acrylate, or a combination thereof.
[0054] The C1 to C20 alkyl (meth)acrylate containing the above hydroxyl group may be 2-hydroxyethyl (meth)acrylate, 2-hydroxypropyl (meth)acrylate, 3-hydroxypropyl (meth)acrylate, 2-hydroxybutyl (meth)acrylate, 4-hydroxybutyl (meth)acrylate, or a combination thereof.
[0055] For example, the (meth)acrylate copolymer may be a copolymer of 2-ethylhexyl (meth)acrylate, isobornyl (meth)acrylate, and 2-hydroxybutyl (meth)acrylate.
[0056]
[0057] The above (meth)acrylate copolymer may have a weight average molecular weight of 400,000 to 2,000,000 g / mol as measured by the GPC method, but is not limited thereto.
[0058]
[0059] crosslinking agent
[0060] The first (meth)acrylate-based resin layer and the second (meth)acrylate-based resin layer may each further include a crosslinking agent.
[0061] The crosslinking agent forms a network-structured polymer through intermolecular and / or intramolecular chemical bonds of the (meth)acrylate copolymer. Accordingly, when the first (meth)acrylate-based resin layer and the second (meth)acrylate-based resin layer each further include a crosslinking agent, the mechanical properties can be improved.
[0062]
[0063] The above crosslinking agent may be an isocyanate crosslinking agent.
[0064] For example, the crosslinking agent may be a trimethylolpropane / xylylene diisocyanate adduct.
[0065]
[0066] Based on 100 parts by weight of the (meth)acrylate copolymer, the crosslinking agent may be included in an amount of 0.01 to 1 part by weight, 0.05 to 0.5 part by weight, or 0.1 to 0.3 part by weight.
[0067] In the above range, the mechanical properties of the elastic sheet can be improved.
[0068]
[0069] inorganic particles
[0070] The first (meth)acrylate-based resin layer and the second (meth)acrylate-based resin layer may each further include inorganic particles.
[0071] When the first (meth)acrylate-based resin layer and the second (meth)acrylate-based resin layer each further include inorganic particles, the compressive strength can be improved.
[0072]
[0073] The above inorganic particles may be silica, boehmite, alumina, or a combination thereof.
[0074] For example, the inorganic particles may be silica.
[0075]
[0076] The shape of the above-mentioned inorganic particles may be spherical, and in this case, D50 may be 100 to 500 nm.
[0077]
[0078] Based on 100 parts by weight of the above (meth)acrylate copolymer, the inorganic particles may be included in an amount of 0.01 to 1 part by weight, or 0.1 to 0.5 parts by weight.
[0079] In the above range, the compressive strength of the elastic sheet can be improved.
[0080]
[0081] Pore former
[0082] The first (meth)acrylate-based resin layer and the second (meth)acrylate-based resin layer may each be in the form of a foam. In this case, the first (meth)acrylate-based resin layer and the second (meth)acrylate-based resin layer may each include a pore-forming agent.
[0083] On the other hand, when the first (meth)acrylate-based resin layer and the second (meth)acrylate-based resin layer do not include the pore forming agent, the layer can be in the form of a dense layer in which no pores are formed inside.
[0084]
[0085] When the first (meth)acrylate-based resin layer and the second (meth)acrylate-based resin layer are each in the form of a foam, the density of the foam is 0.35 to 0.8 g / cm 2 This may be the case. If the density of the foam exceeds the above range, it may fall flat during compression or the compressive strength may become excessively high. On the other hand, if the density of the foam falls below the above range, the pores constituting the foam may become interconnected during the charge / discharge process of the all-solid-state battery, reducing its resilience.
[0086]
[0087] If the first (meth)acrylate-based resin layer and the second (meth)acrylate-based resin layer are each in the form of a dense layer rather than a foam, the high compressive strength may cause deformation or fracture of the solid electrolyte. Accordingly, it is preferable that the first (meth)acrylate-based resin layer and the second (meth)acrylate-based resin layer are each in the form of a foam, and in this case, excellent stress relaxation properties may be exhibited.
[0088]
[0089] The pore former may be an inorganic pore former, an organic pore former, or a combination thereof.
[0090] In this specification, the term “hollow” means a shape that is hollow.
[0091] The above-mentioned inorganic pore-forming agent may be a glass microsphere. For example, the glass microsphere may be a glass bubble. The glass bubble may be a hollow particle made of glass.
[0092] The organic pore-forming agent may be a heat-expandable polymer microsphere. The heat-expandable polymer microsphere has a capsule shape having a hollow core and a shell, and a liquid having a boiling point lower than the softening temperature of the shell is encapsulated in the hollow core for foaming.
[0093] The liquid contained in the hollow space of the above heat-expandable polymer microspheres may be a hydrocarbon, for example, n-butane, isobutane, n-pentane, neopentane, isopentane, hexane, isohexane, heptane, octane, cyclopentane, cyclopentene, 1-pentene, 1-hexene, etc., and a hydrocarbon having a boiling point of less than 60°C at atmospheric pressure is preferable. For example, the liquid contained in the hollow space may be isobutane.
[0094] The shell of the above heat-expandable polymer microspheres may include an acrylic copolymer such as an acrylonitrile copolymer.
[0095] The above heat-expandable polymer microspheres are in the form of a general powder at room temperature, but when exposed to high temperatures, the liquid contained in the hollow portion of the heat-expandable polymer microspheres vaporizes, expanding the capsules and allowing them to be used as a foaming agent.
[0096] The above heat-expandable polymer microspheres generally expand at about 150 to 200°C and expand in volume by about 50 to 100 times their initial size.
[0097]
[0098] Based on 100 parts by weight of the (meth)acrylate copolymer, the pore forming agent may be included in an amount of 0.1 to 5 parts by weight, or 1 to 2 parts by weight.
[0099] In the above range, pores can be formed in an appropriate range within each of the first (meth)acrylate-based resin layer and the second (meth)acrylate-based resin layer.
[0100]
[0101] Properties of elastic sheets
[0102] The above elastic sheet can have a loss factor (tanδ) within an appropriate range by achieving a balance of stress relaxation characteristics and resilience. Here, the loss factor (tanδ) is a value calculated as loss modulus / storage modulus, and the smaller this value is, the stronger the elastic properties are, and the larger this value is, the stronger the viscous properties are.
[0103] The above loss modulus and storage modulus can be obtained using a dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA). For example, after manufacturing an elastic sheet into a specimen of a certain specification, the specimen is placed between two jigs, and force is applied to the two jigs to secure the specimen. At this time, the gap between the two jigs may be about 10 mm to 20 mm, 11 mm to 15 mm, or 11 mm to 13 mm.
[0104] For an elastic sheet fixed between the two jigs, dynamic viscoelasticity can be measured under specific temperature and frequency conditions while simultaneously applying strain (stain) while changing the temperature. Here, the loss modulus and storage modulus can be evaluated, and the loss factor (tanδ) can be calculated from the values of the loss modulus / storage modulus.
[0105] The above elastic sheet can exhibit stress relaxation characteristics and resilience, which are in a trade-off relationship, in harmony by having a loss factor (tanδ) in an appropriate range.
[0106]
[0107] At 25°C, the temperature at which solid-state batteries are typically manufactured, unexpected impacts may occur during the assembly and / or pressurization process. In this case, if the elastic sheet has a high loss factor (tanδ), it can absorb and disperse external impacts, thereby protecting the solid-state battery.
[0108] The elastic sheet may have a value calculated according to the following formula 1 of 1.4 to 2, or 1.45 to 1.8, or 1.45 to 1.7:
[0109] [Formula 1]
[0110] tanδ a / tanδ b
[0111] In the above equation 1, tanδ a is the loss factor (tanδ) when dynamic viscoelasticity is measured under the conditions of temperature of 25 ℃ and frequency of 100 rad / s, and tanδ b is the loss modulus (tanδ) when dynamic viscoelasticity is measured under the conditions of a temperature of 25 ℃ and a frequency of 1 rad / s, and the loss modulus (tanδ) under each of the above conditions is calculated as loss modulus / storage modulus.
[0112] The above elastic sheet, tanδ a The value can be between 0.7 and 1, or between 0.7 and 0.9.
[0113] The above elastic sheet, tanδ b The value can be between 0.4 and 0.7, or between 0.4 and 0.6.
[0114] The elastic sheet may have a storage modulus of 0.9 to 1.5, or 1 to 1.2 MPa, when dynamic viscoelasticity is measured under conditions of a temperature of 25°C and a frequency of 1 rad / s.
[0115]
[0116] Meanwhile, at 45°C, the temperature at which an all-solid-state battery is charged and discharged, volume changes in the electrodes may occur. At this time, if the loss coefficient (tanδ) of the elastic sheet is low, the resilience to return to its original position is strong, and thus the adhesion between each layer constituting the all-solid-state battery can be maintained.
[0117] The elastic sheet may have a value of 0.6 to 1, or 0.6 to 0.9, calculated according to the following formula 2:
[0118] [Formula 2]
[0119] tanδ c / tanδ d
[0120] In the above equation 2, tanδ c is the loss factor (tanδ) when dynamic viscoelasticity is measured under the conditions of temperature of 45 ℃ and frequency of 0.1 rad / s, and tanδ d is the loss modulus (tanδ) when dynamic viscoelasticity is measured under the conditions of a temperature of 45 ℃ and a frequency of 1 rad / s, and the loss modulus (tanδ) under each of the above conditions is calculated as the loss modulus / storage modulus.
[0121] The above elastic sheet, tanδ c The value can be between 0.14 and 0.2, or between 0.14 and 0.19.
[0122] The above elastic sheet, tanδ d The value can be between 0.2 and 0.3, or between 0.2 and 0.26.
[0123] The storage modulus when dynamic viscoelasticity is measured under conditions of a temperature of 45 ℃ and a frequency of 0.1 rad / s may be 0.4 to 0.6, or 0.4 to 0.5 MPa.
[0124]
[0125] Hereinafter, CFD (Compression Force Deflection) n% means the compressive strength measured according to ASTM D3574 at the point compressed to (100-n)% of the original thickness.
[0126] The elastic sheet may have a compressive strength, CFD 40 to 50%, of 1 to 5 MPa, or 1 to 3 MPa, measured in accordance with ASTM D3574 at a point compressed to 50 to 60% of its original thickness.
[0127]
[0128] An example of measuring CFD (Compression Force Deflection) n% is as follows.
[0129] An elastic sheet is manufactured into a specimen measuring 2 cm x 2 cm in length x width, and compression is performed at a compression ratio of 0.6 mm / min (10 μm / sec) using a compression tester with a spherical jig having a diameter of 10 mm.
[0130] For elastic sheet specimens, CFD n% is measured using a UTM (manufacturer: Shimadzu Scientific Korea Corp) according to ASTM D3574 at the point where the specimen is compressed to (100-n)% of the initial thickness after pressurization.
[0131]
[0132] The above elastic sheet may have a stress relaxation rate of 11 to 14% according to the following formula 3:
[0133] [Formula 3]
[0134] Stress relaxation rate = 100*(Stress after 60 seconds when compressed to 40% of the original thickness) / (Initial stress when compressed to 40% of the original thickness)
[0135]
[0136] Examples of stress relaxation rate measurements are as follows.
[0137] An elastic sheet is manufactured into a specimen measuring 2 cm x 2 cm in length x width, and compression is performed at a compression ratio of 0.6 mm / min (10 μm / sec) using a compression tester with a spherical jig having a diameter of 10 mm.
[0138] The initial stress is measured at the point where the elastic sheet specimen is compressed to 40% of its initial thickness by applying pressure. In addition, the stress is measured for the elastic sheet specimen 60 seconds after the point where the elastic sheet specimen is compressed to 40% of its initial thickness. Here, the stress at each point is measured using a TA (Texture analyzer, manufacturer: stable micro systems).
[0139] The stress measurement values at each point in time are substituted into Equation 3 to obtain the stress relaxation rate.
[0140]
[0141] The elastic sheet may have a recovery rate of 65 to 75% according to the following formula 4:
[0142] [Formula 4]
[0143] Recovery rate = 100*(Stress when restored to 60% of the original thickness after compression to 40% of the original thickness) / (Initial stress when restored to 60% of the original thickness after compression)
[0144]
[0145] Examples of measuring the recovery rate are as follows.
[0146] An elastic sheet is manufactured into a specimen measuring 2 cm x 2 cm in length x width, and compression is performed at a compression ratio of 0.6 mm / min (10 μm / sec) using a compression tester with a spherical jig having a diameter of 10 mm.
[0147] The elastic sheet specimen is compressed to 60% of its original thickness, and the initial stress is measured at that point. In addition, the stress is measured at that point when the elastic sheet specimen, compressed to 40% of its original thickness, is restored to 60% of its original thickness. Here, the stress at each point is measured using a TA (Texture analyzer, manufacturer: stable micro systems).
[0148] The stress measurement values at each point in time are substituted into Equation 4 to obtain the recovery rate.
[0149]
[0150] Thickness of elastic sheet
[0151] The overall thickness of the elastic sheet may be from 100 μm to 800 μm, for example, from 100 μm to 600 μm, or from 150 μm to 500 μm. Within this thickness range, the elastic sheet can sufficiently alleviate stress due to pressure and stress due to thickness change during charging and discharging, and can exhibit excellent resilience.
[0152] The thickness of the above elastic sheet can be measured using a thickness measuring device.
[0153]
[0154] Structure of elastic sheet
[0155] The above elastic sheet may further include a protective film or coating layer on one side.
[0156]
[0157] (all-solid-state battery)
[0158] In another embodiment, an all-solid-state battery is provided, comprising the elastic sheet; and an electrode assembly, wherein the electrode assembly includes a positive electrode; a negative electrode; and a solid electrolyte layer positioned between the positive electrode and the negative electrode, and the elastic sheet is positioned on the outside of at least one of the positive electrode and the negative electrode.
[0159] The above elastic sheet may be positioned on the outermost layer surface of the electrode assembly, or in a structure in which two or more electrode assemblies are laminated, it may be positioned on the outermost layer and / or inside the assembly. Considering that the thickness of the negative electrode in particular changes significantly during charge and discharge due to reasons such as dendrite formation, the elastic sheet may be positioned on the outer side of the negative electrode, i.e., on the opposite side of the surface of the negative electrode where the solid electrolyte layer is in contact, so as to buffer problems caused by thickness changes. In addition, by positioning the elastic sheet on the outer side of the positive electrode and / or the negative electrode, the phenomenon of deterioration due to reaction with lithium may be prevented, thereby increasing the Coulombic efficiency of the battery.
[0160]
[0161] Hereinafter, an all-solid-state battery according to an embodiment is described in detail.
[0162]
[0163] The above all-solid-state battery may also be expressed as an all-solid-state secondary battery or an all-solid-state lithium secondary battery.
[0164] FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view of an all-solid-state battery according to an embodiment. Referring to FIG. 1, the all-solid-state battery (100) may have a structure in which an electrode assembly in which a negative electrode (400) including a negative electrode current collector (401) and a negative electrode active material layer (403), a solid electrolyte layer (300), and a positive electrode (200) including a positive electrode active material layer (203) and a positive electrode current collector (201) are laminated is housed in a case such as a pouch. The all-solid-state battery (100) may further include an elastic sheet (500) on the outer side of at least one of the positive electrode (200) and the negative electrode (400). Although FIG. 1 illustrates one electrode assembly including a negative electrode (400), a solid electrolyte layer (300), and a positive electrode (200), an all-solid-state battery may be manufactured by laminating two or more electrode assemblies.
[0165] An all-solid-state battery according to one embodiment can be manufactured by sequentially stacking a positive electrode, a solid electrolyte, and a negative electrode to prepare a laminate, and then pressurizing the laminate.
[0166] The pressurization may be performed at a temperature of, for example, 25°C to 90°C, and at a pressure of 550 MPa or less, or 500 MPa or less, for example, 400 MPa to 500 MPa. The pressurization may be, for example, an isostatic press, a roll press, or a plate press.
[0167] The above-mentioned all-solid-state battery may be a unit battery having a structure of positive electrode / solid electrolyte layer / negative electrode, a bi-cell having a structure of positive electrode / solid electrolyte layer / negative electrode / solid electrolyte layer / positive electrode, or a laminated battery in which the structure of the unit battery is repeated.
[0168] The shape of the above-mentioned all-solid-state battery is not particularly limited, and may be, for example, coin-shaped, button-shaped, sheet-shaped, stacked, cylindrical, flat, etc. In addition, the above-mentioned all-solid-state battery can be applied to medium- to large-sized batteries used in electric vehicles, etc. For example, the above-mentioned all-solid-state battery can be used in hybrid vehicles such as plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs). In addition, it can be applied to energy storage systems (ESS) that require a large amount of power storage, and can also be applied to electric bicycles or power tools, etc.
[0169]
[0170] positive electrode active material
[0171] A compound capable of reversible intercalation and deintercalation of lithium (a lithiated intercalation compound) can be used as a cathode active material. Specifically, one or more of a composite oxide of lithium and a metal selected from cobalt, manganese, nickel, and combinations thereof can be used.
[0172] The above composite oxide may be a lithium transition metal composite oxide, and specific examples thereof include lithium nickel-based oxide, lithium cobalt-based oxide, lithium manganese-based oxide, lithium iron phosphate-based compound, cobalt-free nickel-manganese-based oxide, or a combination thereof.

For example, the positive electrode active material may include small particles having an average particle diameter (D50) of 1 μm to 9 μm and large particles having an average particle diameter (D50) of 10 μm to 25 μm. A positive electrode active material having such a particle diameter range can be harmoniously mixed with other components within a positive electrode active material layer and can realize high capacity and high energy density. Here, the average particle diameter may be obtained by selecting 20 or so random particles from a scanning electron microscope image of the positive electrode active material, measuring their particle diameters (diameter, major axis, or major axis length), obtaining a particle size distribution, and then taking the diameter (D50) of particles having a cumulative volume of 50% by volume from the particle size distribution as the average particle diameter.

In addition, the above-mentioned positive electrode active material may be spherical or nearly spherical in shape, or may be polyhedral or irregular in shape.
[0192] Meanwhile, the positive electrode active material may include a buffer layer on the particle surface. The buffer layer may be expressed as a coating layer, a protective layer, etc., and may play a role in lowering the interfacial resistance between the positive electrode active material and the sulfide-based solid electrolyte particles. For example, the buffer layer may include a lithium-metal-oxide, wherein the metal may be one or more elements selected from the group consisting of Al, B, Ca, Ce, Cr, Fe, Mg, Mo, Nb, Si, Sn, Sr, Ta, V, W, and Zr. The lithium-metal-oxide is excellent in lowering the interfacial resistance between the positive electrode active material and the solid electrolyte particles while improving the performance of the positive electrode active material by facilitating the movement of lithium ions and electron conduction.
[0193]

[0212] The above Si-based negative electrode active material or Sn-based negative electrode active material can be used in a mixture with a carbon-based negative electrode active material.
[0213]
[0214] cathode
[0215] An anode for an all-solid-state battery may include, for example, a current collector and a negative electrode active material layer positioned on the current collector. The negative electrode active material layer includes a negative electrode active material and may further include a binder, a conductive material, and / or a solid electrolyte.
[0216] For example, the negative electrode active material layer may include 90 to 99 wt% of the negative electrode active material, 0.5 to 5 wt% of the binder, and 0 to 5 wt% of the conductive material.
[0217] The above binder serves to adhere the negative electrode active material particles well to each other and also to adhere the negative electrode active material well to the current collector. The binder may be a non-aqueous binder, an aqueous binder, a dry binder, or a combination thereof.

[0224]
[0225] precipitation cathode
[0226] Meanwhile, as an example, the above-mentioned all-solid-state battery negative electrode may be a precipitation-type negative electrode. The precipitation-type negative electrode refers to a negative electrode that does not have a negative electrode active material when the battery is assembled, but in which lithium metal or the like is precipitated when the battery is charged, and this acts as a negative electrode active material.
[0227] Fig. 2 is a schematic cross-sectional view of an all-solid-state battery including a precipitation-type negative electrode. Referring to Fig. 2, the precipitation-type negative electrode (400') may include a current collector (401) and a negative electrode coating layer (405) positioned on the current collector. An all-solid-state battery including such a precipitation-type negative electrode (400') starts initial charging in a state in which no negative electrode active material is present, and upon charging, high-density lithium metal or the like is precipitated between the current collector (401) and the negative electrode coating layer (405) to form a lithium metal layer (404), which may function as a negative electrode active material. Accordingly, in an all-solid-state battery that has been charged at least once, the precipitation-type negative electrode (400') may include a current collector (401), a lithium metal layer (404) positioned on the current collector, and a negative electrode coating layer (405) positioned on the metal layer. The above lithium metal layer (404) refers to a layer in which lithium metal, etc. is precipitated during the charging process of the battery, and may be referred to as a metal layer or a negative electrode active material layer.
[0228] The above cathode coating layer (405) may include a metal and / or carbon material that acts as a catalyst.
[0229] The metal may include, for example, gold, platinum, palladium, silicon, silver, aluminum, bismuth, tin, zinc, or a combination thereof, and may be composed of one kind of these or may be composed of several kinds of alloys. The average particle diameter (D50) of the metal may be about 4 μm or less, and may be, for example, 10 nm to 4 μm, 10 nm to 2 μm, or 10 nm to 1 μm.
[0230] The carbon material may be, for example, crystalline carbon, non-graphitic carbon, or a combination thereof. The crystalline carbon may be, for example, at least one selected from natural graphite, artificial graphite, mesophase carbon microbeads, and combinations thereof. The non-graphitic carbon may be at least one selected from carbon black, activated carbon, acetylene black, Denka black, Ketjen black, furnace black, graphene, and combinations thereof.
[0231] When the above-described negative electrode coating layer (405) includes both the metal and the carbon material, the mixing ratio of the metal and the carbon material may be, for example, a weight ratio of 1:10 to 1:2, 1:10 to 2:1, 5:1 to 1:1, or 4:1 to 2:1. In this case, the precipitation of lithium metal can be effectively promoted and the characteristics of the all-solid-state battery can be improved. The above-described negative electrode coating layer (405) may include, for example, a carbon material supported with a catalytic metal, or may include a mixture of metal particles and carbon material particles.
[0232] The above cathode coating layer (405) may further include a binder, and the binder may be, for example, a conductive binder. In addition, the above cathode coating layer (405) may further include general additives such as fillers, dispersants, and ionic conductive agents.
[0233] The thickness of the negative electrode coating layer (405) may be, for example, 1 μm to 20 μm, 2 μm to 10 μm, or 3 μm to 7 μm. In addition, the thickness of the negative electrode coating layer (405) may be 50% or less, 20% or less, or 5% or less of the thickness of the positive electrode active material layer. If the thickness of the negative electrode coating layer (405) is too thin, it may be collapsed by the lithium metal layer (404), and if the thickness is too thick, the density of the all-solid-state battery may decrease and the internal resistance may increase.
[0234] The above-described precipitated negative electrode (400') may further include, for example, a thin film on the surface of the current collector, i.e., between the current collector and the negative electrode coating layer. The thin film may include an element capable of forming an alloy with lithium. The element capable of forming an alloy with lithium may be, for example, gold, silver, zinc, tin, indium, silicon, aluminum, bismuth, etc., and may be composed of one type thereof or may be composed of multiple types of alloys. The thin film may further flatten the precipitated form of the lithium metal layer (404) and further improve the characteristics of the all-solid-state battery. The thin film may be formed by, for example, a vacuum deposition method, a sputtering method, a plating method, etc. The thickness of the thin film may be, for example, 1 nm to 800 nm, or 100 nm to 500 nm.
[0235] The lithium metal layer (404) may include lithium metal or a lithium alloy. The lithium alloy may be, for example, a Li-Al alloy, a Li-Sn alloy, a Li-In alloy, a Li-Ag alloy, a Li-Au alloy, a Li-Zn alloy, a Li-Ge alloy, or a Li-Si alloy.
[0236] The thickness of the lithium metal layer (404) may be 1 μm to 500 μm, 1 μm to 200 μm, 1 μm to 100 μm, or 1 μm to 50 μm. If the thickness of the lithium metal layer (404) is too thin, it may be difficult to perform the role of a lithium storage, and if it is too thick, the battery volume may increase and performance may deteriorate.
[0237] When such a precipitation-type cathode is applied, the cathode coating layer (405) can play a role in protecting the lithium metal layer (404) and suppressing the precipitation growth of lithium deadlight. Accordingly, short-circuiting and capacity reduction of the all-solid-state battery can be suppressed, and the life characteristics can be improved.
[0238]
[0239] solid electrolyte layer
[0240] The solid electrolyte layer contains a solid electrolyte.
[0241] The above solid electrolyte may be a type of inorganic solid electrolyte, and may include, for example, a sulfide-based solid electrolyte, an oxide-based solid electrolyte, a halide-based solid electrolyte, or a combination thereof.
[0242] Sulfide-based solid electrolyte
[0243] Sulfide-based solid electrolytes include, for example, Li2S-P2S5, Li2S-P2S5--LiX (where X is a halogen element, for example, I or Cl), Li2S-P2S5-Li2O, Li2S-P2S5-Li2O-LiI, Li2S-SiS2, Li2S-SiS2-LiI, Li2S-SiS2-LiBr, Li2S-SiS2-LiCl, Li2S-SiS2-B2S3-LiI, Li2S-SiS2-P2S5-LiI, Li2S-B2S3, Li2S-P2S5-Z. m S n (m, n are integers, Z is Ge, Zn or Ga), Li2S-GeS2, Li2S-SiS2-Li3PO4, Li2S-SiS2-Li p MO q (p, q are integers, and M is P, Si, Ge, B, Al, Ga or In), or a combination thereof.
[0244] A sulfide-based solid electrolyte can be obtained, for example, by mixing Li2S and P2S5 in a molar ratio of 50:50 to 90:10, or 50:50 to 80:20, and optionally heat-treating them. Within the above mixing ratio range, a sulfide-based solid electrolyte having excellent ionic conductivity can be produced. The ionic conductivity can be further improved by further including other components such as SiS2, GeS2, and B2S3.
[0245] Methods for mixing sulfur-containing raw materials for producing sulfide-based solid electrolytes include mechanical milling or the solution method. Mechanical milling involves placing raw materials in a ball mill reactor and vigorously stirring them to finely atomize and mix them. Using the solution method, the raw materials are mixed in a solvent to obtain a solid electrolyte as a precipitate. Furthermore, heat treatment after mixing can solidify the crystals of the solid electrolyte and improve ionic conductivity. For example, a sulfide-based solid electrolyte can be produced by mixing sulfur-containing raw materials and heat-treating them twice or more, resulting in a sulfide-based solid electrolyte with high ionic conductivity and robustness.
[0246] According to one embodiment, sulfide-based solid electrolyte particles can be manufactured through, for example, a first heat treatment in which sulfur-containing raw materials are mixed and calcined at 120°C to 350°C, and a second heat treatment in which the first heat treatment result is mixed and calcined at 350°C to 800°C. The first heat treatment and the second heat treatment can each be performed in an inert gas or nitrogen atmosphere. The first heat treatment can be performed for 1 to 10 hours, and the second heat treatment can be performed for 5 to 20 hours. The first heat treatment can have the effect of milling small raw materials, and the second heat treatment can synthesize the final solid electrolyte. Through two or more such heat treatments, a high-performance sulfide-based solid electrolyte with high ionic conductivity and robustness can be obtained, and such a solid electrolyte can be said to be suitable for mass production. The temperature of the first heat treatment may be, for example, 150°C to 330°C, or 200°C to 300°C, and the temperature of the second heat treatment may be, for example, 380°C to 700°C, or 400°C to 600°C.
[0247] For example, the sulfide-based solid electrolyte particles may include argyrodite-type sulfides. The argyrodite-type sulfide-based solid electrolyte particles may have an ionic conductivity of 10, which is the ionic conductivity of a typical liquid electrolyte at room temperature. -4 10 inland -2 It has a high ionic conductivity approaching the S / cm range, can form a close bond between a positive electrode active material and a solid electrolyte without causing a decrease in ionic conductivity, and further can form a close interface between an electrode layer and a solid electrolyte layer. An all-solid-state secondary battery including this can have improved battery performance, such as rate characteristics, Coulombic efficiency, and cycle life characteristics.
[0248] The argyrodite-type sulfide-based solid electrolyte particles may include, for example, a compound represented by the chemical formula 21 below.

[0255] An argyrodite-type sulfide-based solid electrolyte can be manufactured, for example, by mixing lithium sulfide and phosphorus sulfide, and optionally, lithium halide.

[0286] A monomer mixture containing 50 parts by weight of 2-ethylhexyl acrylate, 10 parts by weight of 4-hydroxybutyl acrylate, and 40 parts by weight of isobornyl acrylate was charged into a four-necked flask equipped with a stirring blade, a thermometer, a nitrogen gas introduction tube, and a condenser. In addition, based on 100 parts by weight of the monomer mixture (solid content), 0.1 part by weight of 2,2'-azobisisobutyronitrile as a polymerization initiator was charged together with 85 parts by weight of ethyl acetate and 15 parts by weight of toluene as a solvent, and nitrogen gas was introduced while gently stirring to replace with nitrogen, and then the liquid temperature inside the flask was maintained at around 55°C and a polymerization reaction was performed for 8 hours, thereby producing an acrylate copolymer (Mw=1,300,000 g / mol, Mw / Mn=1.7) composition.
[0287] Based on 100 parts by weight of the solid content of the above acrylate copolymer composition, a composition for forming an acrylate resin layer was prepared, which includes 0.1 parts by weight of an isocyanate crosslinking agent (trimethylolpropane / xylylene diisocyanate adduct, product name: Takenate D110N, manufacturer: Mitsui Chemicals), 0.1 parts by weight of a silane coupling agent (KBM-403, manufacturer: Shin-Etsu), 1.5 parts by weight of polymer microspheres (product name: Expancel 920DU20, manufacturer: Nouron), and 0.05 parts by weight of silica (Aerosil-200, manufacturer: EVONIK).

[0289] During the above drying process, the polymer microspheres expand, and the acrylate resin layer takes the form of foam.
[0290] (2) Manufacturing of elastic sheets

An argyrodite-type solid electrolyte, Li6PS5Cl (D50=3㎛), was added to the binder solution, which was stirred in a sinky mixer to adjust the viscosity to an appropriate level. 2 mm zirconia balls were added and stirred again in the sinky mixer to prepare a slurry. In the prepared slurry, the content of the solid electrolyte was 98.5 wt%, and the content of the binder was 1.5 wt%.
[0297] The above slurry was applied onto a polyethylene film using a bar coater and dried at room temperature (25°C), and then the polyethylene film was removed to prepare a solid electrolyte layer.

[0300] The above negative electrode active material layer composition was applied to a nickel foil current collector using a bar coater and vacuum dried to manufacture a negative electrode.
[0301] (6) Manufacturing of all-solid-state batteries
[0302] After sequentially stacking the manufactured positive electrode, solid electrolyte layer, and negative electrode, the manufactured elastic sheet was stacked on the negative electrode. Subsequently, the negative electrode, solid electrolyte layer, and positive electrode were sequentially stacked to manufacture an assembly in the order of positive electrode / solid electrolyte / negative electrode / elastic sheet / negative electrode / solid electrolyte / positive electrode.
