At the same time, in a low temperature environment, the above-mentioned components in the electrolyte can form a flexible protective film at the positive electrode interface and increase the migration rate of lithium ions, thereby improving the low temperature resistance of the lithium iron phosphate battery. In this application, high temperature refers to a temperature greater than or equal to 45°C, and low temperature refers to a temperature less than or equal to 0°C.

[0028] In the present application, there is no particular limitation on the preparation method of the boron trifluoride dimethyl carbonate complex (BMC).

The first material includes the above-mentioned LiMn2O4, LiNi x Co y R z M (1-x-y-z)At least one of O2 or Li2MnO3·(1-α)LiQO2. The mass percentage of the first material is not particularly limited, as long as the purpose of this application can be achieved. Based on the mass of the positive electrode material layer, the mass percentage of the first material is Z%, 17≤Z≤83. For example, Z can be 17, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70, 75, 80, 83 or a range consisting of any two of the above values.

[0067] Example

[0068] The following examples and comparative examples are provided to more specifically illustrate the embodiments of the present invention. Various tests and evaluations were performed according to the following methods. In addition, unless otherwise specified, "parts" and "%" are based on mass.

[0069] Test methods and equipment:

[0070] Specific surface area test of positive electrode material:

[0071] The specific surface area of ​​the cathode material was measured using a surface area analyzer (TriStar II 3020M, provided by Micromeritics, USA) using nitrogen adsorption. The specific test was conducted in accordance with the national standard GB / T 19587-2017, "Determination of the Specific Surface Area of ​​Solids by the BET Method for Gas Adsorption."

[0072] Test of the content of each component in the electrolyte:

[0073] Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (instrument model: Agilent 8890) and ion chromatography (instrument model: AQUION ion chromatography) were used for testing to obtain various components in the electrolyte and test their contents.

[0074] Low temperature discharge performance test:

[0075] The low-temperature discharge performance of the lithium-ion battery is evaluated by the -10°C discharge capacity retention rate. The higher the low-temperature discharge capacity retention rate, the better the low-temperature discharge performance of the lithium-ion battery. After the lithium-ion battery is charged to 4.2V at an ambient temperature of 25°C with a constant current of 990mA (0.3 hour rate), it is charged at a constant voltage of 4.2V with a termination current of 66mA. Then, it is discharged at a constant current of 3300mA (1.0 hour rate) to 3.0V, and the discharge capacity at this time is measured as the battery capacity at 25°C. Then, it is charged to 4.2V at an ambient temperature of 25°C with a constant current of 990mA (0.3 hour rate), and after it is charged at a constant voltage of 4.2V with a termination current of 66mA, it is placed in a -10°C environment for 2 hours. Then, constant current discharge was performed at an ambient temperature of -10°C at a constant current of 3300 mA (1.0 hour rate) to 3.0 V, and the discharge capacity at this time was measured as the battery capacity at -10°C. Then, the -10°C discharge capacity retention rate was calculated by the following formula: -10°C discharge capacity retention rate (%) = (battery capacity at -10°C / battery capacity at 25°C) × 100%.

[0076] High temperature storage performance test:

[0077] The high temperature storage performance of lithium-ion batteries is evaluated by the 80°C capacity retention rate. The higher the capacity retention rate after high temperature storage, the better the high temperature storage performance of the lithium-ion battery. After the lithium-ion battery is charged to 4.2V at an ambient temperature of 25°C with a constant current of 990mA (0.3 hour rate), it is charged at a constant voltage of 4.2V with a termination current of 66mA. Then, it is discharged at a constant current of 1650mA (0.5 hour rate) to 3.0V, and the discharge capacity at this time is measured as the battery capacity before storage. Then, it is charged to 4.2V at an ambient temperature of 25°C with a constant current of 990mA (0.3 hour rate), and charged at a constant voltage of 4.2V with a termination current of 66mA, and then kept in a constant temperature bath at 80°C for 3 days. After storage, the lithium-ion battery was removed from the thermostatic chamber and allowed to stand for 1 hour. The battery was then discharged to 3.0 V at a constant current of 1650 mA (0.5 hour rate) at an ambient temperature of 25°C. The discharge capacity at this point was measured as the battery capacity after storage at 80°C. The capacity retention rate after high-temperature storage was then calculated using the following formula: 80°C capacity retention rate (%) = (battery capacity after storage at 80°C / battery capacity before storage) × 100%.

The positive electrode slurry was then coated on one surface of a 12 μm thick positive electrode current collector aluminum foil. The mixture was then dried at 85°C. The above steps were repeated on the other surface of the positive electrode current collector.

[0087] <Preparation of lithium-ion batteries>

[0088] The positive electrode sheet, separator, and negative electrode sheet prepared above are stacked in order, with the separator placed between the positive electrode sheet and the negative electrode sheet to serve as an isolation. The electrode assembly is then wound and welded to the tabs. The electrode assembly is then placed in an aluminum-plastic film packaging bag and placed in an 85°C vacuum oven to dry for 12 hours to remove moisture. The prepared electrolyte is then injected, and a lithium-ion battery is obtained after vacuum packaging, standing, formation (charging at a constant current of 0.02C to 3.5V, then charging at a constant current of 0.1C to 3.9V), shaping, capacity testing, and secondary packaging.
