Background Art

[0004] The statements herein merely provide background information related to the present application and do not necessarily constitute prior art.

[0005] Solid-state batteries use non-flammable solid electrolytes instead of the organic electrolytes found in traditional liquid secondary batteries, significantly improving battery safety. They are considered the next generation of batteries closest to industrialization. Comprehensively improving the discharge capacity and cycle performance of solid-state batteries is crucial for their industrialization.

[0006] Summary of the Invention

[0007] According to various embodiments and examples of the present application, the present application provides a solid-state battery material, a positive electrode active material layer, a positive electrode film, a solid electrolyte membrane, a solid-state battery, an electrical device, and applications. The solid-state battery material is provided with an oxygen storage layer, and using the solid-state battery material as a raw material can improve the discharge capacity and cycle performance of sulfide solid-state batteries.

[0008] In a first aspect of the present application, a solid-state battery material is provided, comprising a coated particle, wherein the coated particle comprises a particle body and an oxygen storage layer located at at least a portion of a surface of the particle body, wherein the oxygen storage layer comprises an oxygen storage material;

[0009] Wherein, the coated particles are at least one of coated positive electrode active particles and coated electrolyte particles;

[0010] When the coated particles are the coated positive electrode active particles, the particle body is a positive electrode active body, and the positive electrode active body contains a positive electrode active material;

[0011] When the coated particles are the coated electrolyte particles, the particle body is a solid electrolyte body, and the solid electrolyte body contains a sulfide electrolyte.

[0012] This solid-state battery material can be used as a sulfide solid-state battery material, and the solid-state battery material includes coated particles provided with a surface oxygen storage layer, so that the oxygen storage layer is located on at least a portion of the surface of the coated particles; the coated particles can be positive electrode active particles coated with a surface oxygen storage layer, or can be sulfide-based electrolyte particles coated with a surface oxygen storage layer, or can be a combination of the two coated particles coated with a surface oxygen storage layer. When using this solid-state battery material to prepare a sulfide solid-state battery, the oxygen storage material in the oxygen storage layer absorbs oxygen, which can reduce the contact probability between the sulfide electrolyte and oxygen, thereby improving the chemical stability of the sulfide electrolyte during the battery preparation process, and is conducive to giving full play to the rapid ion conduction function of the sulfide electrolyte, thereby promoting the stable operation of the solid-state battery and improving the discharge capacity and cycle performance of the sulfide solid-state battery.

[0013] For the coated electrolyte particles, they include a solid electrolyte body and an oxygen storage layer located at least in part of the surface of the solid electrolyte body, the solid electrolyte body includes a sulfide electrolyte, and the oxygen storage layer includes an oxygen storage material. It can be seen that the coated electrolyte particles are sulfide-based electrolyte particles with an oxygen storage layer provided on their surface. The coated electrolyte particles can be used as a solid electrolyte in the solid electrolyte layer of a solid-state battery, or as a solid electrolyte in an electrode active material layer, for example, as a solid electrolyte in a positive electrode active material layer. When the coated electrolyte particles are used to prepare a separate solid electrolyte membrane or positive electrode membrane, or when a positive electrode layer is formed on a base membrane (such as a solid electrolyte membrane), and in the process of preparing a solid-state battery using a membrane containing the coated electrolyte particles, the oxygen storage layer provided on the surface of the coated electrolyte particles can play a role in protecting the sulfide electrolyte, which can reduce or isolate the decomposition effect of oxygen in the air on the sulfide electrolyte, thereby improving the chemical stability of the sulfide electrolyte in the battery preparation process, which is beneficial for the sulfide electrolyte to fully exert its fast ion conduction function, promote the stable operation of the solid-state battery, and improve the discharge capacity and cycle performance of the sulfide solid-state battery. Furthermore, the oxygen storage layer provided on the surface of the coated electrolyte particles can also reduce or isolate direct contact between the sulfide electrolyte and moisture in the air, inhibiting the decomposition of the sulfide electrolyte and the generation of hydrogen sulfide gas, thereby improving the chemical stability of the sulfide electrolyte. Thus, by providing an oxygen storage layer on the surface of the sulfide electrolyte, the oxygen storage material in the oxygen storage layer can absorb and store oxygen, and furthermore, it can block direct contact between the sulfide electrolyte and moisture, thereby giving the coated electrolyte particles better air stability.

[0014] The coated positive electrode active particles include a positive electrode active body and an oxygen storage layer located on at least a portion of the surface of the positive electrode active body. The positive electrode active body includes a positive electrode active material, and the oxygen storage layer includes an oxygen storage material. Therefore, the coated positive electrode active particles are positive electrode active particles with an oxygen storage layer disposed on their surface. The coated positive electrode active particles can provide the positive electrode active material in the positive electrode layer of the solid-state battery. For solid-state batteries, generally, positive electrode electrolyte particles are provided on the positive electrode active material layer of the positive electrode layer to play the role of accelerating ion conduction, reducing interface impedance, and giving full play to the capacity of the positive electrode active particles. When the positive electrode electrolyte particles are sulfide-based electrolytes, that is, containing sulfide electrolytes, in the process of preparing the positive electrode film, the positive electrode layer of the solid-state battery, and preparing the solid-state battery, the oxygen storage layer provided on the surface of the positive electrode active particles can absorb and store oxygen, which can reduce or isolate the attack and decomposition of oxygen in the air on the sulfide electrolyte, thereby promoting the stable operation of the solid-state battery, and is conducive to the sulfide electrolyte to give full play to its role of rapid ion conduction, reduce interface resistance, promote the stable operation of the solid-state battery, and improve the discharge capacity and cycle performance of the sulfide solid-state battery. In addition, it can also improve the rate performance of the solid-state battery. It can be seen that by providing an oxygen storage layer on the surface of the positive electrode active material, it can also play a role in protecting the sulfide-based electrolyte used in combination with it, thereby improving the air stability of the positive electrode electrolyte particles and the positive electrode layer, thereby improving the aforementioned electrochemical properties of the solid-state battery.

[0015] In some embodiments, the oxygen storage material includes one or more of a lanthanide metal oxysulfate-type oxygen storage material, a yttrium barium cobalt oxide-type oxygen storage material, and a perovskite-type oxygen storage material.

[0016] In some embodiments, the oxygen storage material satisfies one or more of the following characteristics:

[0017] The lanthanide metal oxysulfate type oxygen storage material includes a chemical formula of Ln2O2SO 4-δ1 Oxygen storage material, wherein Ln is a lanthanide metal element, the lanthanide metal element includes one or more elements of La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd and Tb, 0≤δ1≤4;

[0018] The yttrium barium cobalt oxide type oxygen storage material includes a chemical formula of (Y x M1 (1-x) )(Ba y M2 (1-y) )(Co z M3 (1-z) )4O 7+δ2Oxygen storage material, wherein M1 is selected from one or more elements of Ca, In, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Yb and Lu, M2 is Sr, M3 is selected from one or more elements of Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn, Al, Ga and Zr, 0≤x≤1, 0≤y≤1, 0≤z≤1, 0≤δ2≤1.5;

[0019] The perovskite oxygen storage material includes a chemical formula of La 1-a A a Mn 1-b B b O 3-δ3 Oxygen storage material, wherein A is selected from one or more elements of Sr, Y, Ce, Pr and Nd, B is selected from one or more elements of Ni, Fe, Cu and Co, 0≤a≤1, 0≤b≤1, 0≤δ3≤1.

[0020] The aforementioned types of oxygen storage materials can be selected to form an oxygen storage layer on the surface of the positive electrode active body or the solid electrolyte body, both of which can improve the chemical stability of the sulfide electrolyte during battery preparation, and are beneficial to improving the discharge capacity and cycle performance of the sulfide solid-state battery.

[0021] In some embodiments, the weight percentage of the oxygen storage material in the coated particles is 0.1 wt% to 10 wt%, and can be optionally 0.5 wt% to 5 wt%.

[0022] In some embodiments, the thickness of the oxygen storage layer is 0.1 nm to 50 nm, and can be optionally 0.5 nm to 10 nm.

[0023] By controlling either the weight percentage of the oxygen storage material in the coated particles or the thickness of the oxygen storage layer, the amount of oxygen storage material coated can be adjusted. It is understood that adjusting both parameters simultaneously can also adjust the amount of oxygen storage material coated. By controlling at least one of the weight percentage of the oxygen storage material in the coated particles and the thickness of the oxygen storage layer within the aforementioned range, not only is it beneficial to improve the stability of the sulfide electrolyte components involved in the solid-state battery preparation process, but it also helps the sulfide electrolyte fully utilize its rapid ion conductivity.

[0024] In some embodiments, the oxygen storage material includes oxygen storage particles; the particle size of the oxygen storage particles is 1 nm to 100 nm, and can be optionally 1 nm to 50 nm.

[0025] The oxygen storage material in the oxygen storage layer can be granular oxygen storage particles. In this case, the specific surface area of ​​the oxygen storage particles can be adjusted by controlling the particle size of the oxygen storage particles. Controlling the particle size within the aforementioned range helps the particles have a larger oxygen-absorbing surface area, allowing the oxygen storage material to better perform its aforementioned function of absorbing and storing oxygen, while also further facilitating its ability to isolate moisture from the air.

[0026] In some embodiments, the particle size of the positive electrode active body is 0.1 μm to 20 μm, and can be optionally 1 μm to 10 μm.

[0027] In some embodiments, the D coating the positive electrode active particles v 50 is 0.1μm~20μm, and can be selected as 1μm~10μm; among them, D v 50 represents the particle size corresponding to when the cumulative volume distribution percentage of the multi-particle mixture reaches 50%.

[0028] By adjusting the D v 50 and at least one of the particle size of the positive electrode active body can adjust the size of the coated positive electrode active particles. v Controlling at least one of the parameters of the particle size of the active cathode particles (50 and the particle size of the active cathode particles) within the aforementioned ranges is beneficial for improving the discharge capacity of the coated active cathode particles and maintaining good contact between the coated active cathode particles and the sulfide-based electrolyte within the composite positive electrode. Smaller coated active cathode particles have shorter active ion transport channels within them, which is beneficial for improving the discharge capacity of the coated active cathode particles themselves. Larger coated active cathode particles are better encapsulated by the sulfide-based electrolyte, providing better interfacial contact with the sulfide-based electrolyte and improving battery cycling performance. Coated active cathode particles of relatively moderate size can enable batteries to achieve both high discharge capacity and excellent cycling performance.

[0029] In some embodiments, the positive electrode active material includes an oxide positive electrode active material;

[0030] Optionally, the oxide positive electrode active material includes lithium transition metal oxide.

[0031] In some embodiments, the lithium transition metal oxide includes one or more of a lithium cobalt oxide-type positive electrode active material, a high nickel positive electrode active material, a lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode active material, and a modified form of any of the foregoing positive electrode active materials; the modified form includes one or more of a doping modification and a coating modification;

[0032] Optionally,

[0033] The lithium cobalt oxide type positive electrode active material comprises Li, Co and O, wherein the atomic molar ratio of Co to O is x2:2, and satisfies 0.9≤x2≤1; alternatively, the lithium cobalt oxide type positive electrode active material comprises Li, Co and O in an atomic molar ratio of 1:x2:2, and satisfies 0.9≤x2≤1;

[0034] The high-nickel positive electrode active material comprises Li, Ni and O, wherein the atomic molar ratio of Ni to O is y2:2, and satisfies 0.6≤y2≤1; alternatively, the high-nickel positive electrode active material comprises Li, Ni and O in an atomic molar ratio of 1:y2:2, and satisfies 0.6≤y2≤1;

[0035] The lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode active material comprises Li, Mn and O elements in an atomic molar ratio of (1+p): (p+r(1-p)): (2+p), and satisfies 0 <p≤1,0≤r≤1。

[0036] In some embodiments, the lithium transition metal oxide satisfies one or more of the following characteristics:

[0037] 0.8≤y2≤1;

[0038] 0.2≤p≤1.

[0039] In some embodiments, the lithium transition metal oxide satisfies one or more of the following characteristics:

[0040] The lithium cobalt oxide positive electrode active material includes a chemical formula of LiCo x2 R 1-x2 O2 lithium transition metal oxide, R is selected from one or more elements of Ni, Mg, Ti, Al, Cr, Fe, Nb and Ta;

[0041] The high nickel positive electrode active material includes a chemical formula of LiNi y2 Co z2 D 1-y2-z2 A lithium transition metal oxide of O2, 0≤z2≤0.4, 0.6≤(y2+z2)≤1, D is selected from one or more elements of Mn, Al, Zr, La, Ce, Ti, Mg, Nb, Ta, Mo and W; optionally, D includes Mn;

[0042] The lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode active material includes a lithium transition metal oxide with a chemical formula of pLi2MnO3·(1-p)LiZO2, where Z is selected from one or more elements of Ni, Co, Mn, Cr, Fe, Al, Nb, Mo and Ru.

[0043] When the positive electrode active material in the positive electrode active particles includes an oxide positive electrode active material (such as a lithium transition metal oxide), the oxide positive electrode active material may release oxygen at high operating voltages. By providing the aforementioned solid-state battery material in the positive electrode active material layer containing the oxide positive electrode active material (such as a lithium transition metal oxide), direct contact between the oxide positive electrode active material and the sulfide electrolyte can be hindered. The oxygen storage material absorbs the oxygen that may be released by the positive electrode, thereby inhibiting the attack of the released oxygen on the sulfide electrolyte, thereby reducing the oxidative decomposition of the sulfide electrolyte by oxygen. This can inhibit the interfacial side reactions between the oxide positive electrode active material (such as a lithium transition metal oxide) and the sulfide electrolyte, inhibiting the increase in interfacial impedance, and facilitating the improvement of the stability of the sulfide electrolyte in the positive electrode layer during the cycling of the sulfide solid-state battery, thereby maintaining its excellent electrical conductivity, facilitating the long-term ionic conduction of the sulfide electrolyte and fully utilizing the capacity of the positive electrode active particles, and endowing the sulfide solid-state battery with excellent high-voltage stability. Furthermore, the sulfide solid-state battery can have a higher first coulombic efficiency, a higher discharge capacity, a higher rate capability, and better cycling performance. In addition, when a certain concentration of oxygen is stored in the oxygen storage material, the oxygen partial pressure on the surface of the positive electrode material increases, thereby further hindering the release of oxygen from the positive electrode material, thereby enhancing the structural stability of the positive electrode material.

[0044] When the positive electrode active material in the positive electrode active particles includes an oxide positive electrode active material (such as a lithium transition metal oxide), by adjusting at least one parameter of the weight ratio of the oxygen storage material in the coated particles and the thickness of the oxygen storage layer, it is possible to achieve both the suppression of oxygen release and good interfacial ion transport. This can not only suppress oxygen release, improve the stability of the sulfide electrolyte, and achieve good discharge capacity and cycle performance, but also achieve good interfacial ion transport and fully utilize the discharge capacity of the positive electrode layer.

[0045] When the positive electrode active material in the positive electrode active particles includes an oxide positive electrode active material (such as a lithium transition metal oxide), by adjusting the D v 50 and at least one of the particle size of the positive electrode active body, the amount of the oxygen storage material in the oxygen storage layer relative to the positive electrode active material contained in the positive electrode active body can also be indirectly adjusted. v At least one parameter of the particle size of the positive electrode active body is controlled within the above range, which is beneficial for the oxygen storage material to provide sufficient oxygen absorption capacity, and is also beneficial for improving the discharge capacity of the coated positive electrode active particles and maintaining good contact between the coated positive electrode active particles and the sulfide-based electrolyte in the composite positive electrode.

[0046] Lithium transition metal oxides such as lithium cobalt oxide-type positive electrode active materials, high nickel positive electrode active materials, and lithium-rich manganese-based positive electrode active materials easily release oxygen at high operating voltages. When these lithium transition metal oxides are used as positive electrode active materials in positive electrode active particles, by arranging the aforementioned solid-state battery materials in the positive electrode active material layer, it is beneficial to achieve both high energy density and long cycle performance of sulfide solid-state batteries while allowing for the possibility of positive electrode oxygen release.

[0047] When the solid-state battery material provided in the positive electrode active material layer includes the aforementioned coated positive electrode active particles, it is further beneficial to inhibit the release of oxygen from the positive electrode material, improve the crystal structure stability of the positive electrode active particles during battery cycling, inhibit the formation of surface rock salt phase, and is beneficial to fully utilize the positive electrode capacity and improve the long-cycle performance of the battery.

[0048] In some embodiments, the particle size of the solid electrolyte body is 1 nm to 20 μm, and can be optionally 50 nm to 5 μm.

[0049] In some embodiments, the D of the coated electrolyte particles v 50 is 1nm~20μm, and can be selected as 50nm~5μm; among them, D v 50 represents the particle size corresponding to when the cumulative volume distribution percentage of the multi-particle mixture reaches 50%.

[0050] By adjusting the D v 50 and the particle size of the solid electrolyte body can adjust the size of the coated electrolyte particles. v Regulating at least one of the particle size of the solid electrolyte particles (50) and the particle size of the solid electrolyte body within the aforementioned range is beneficial for improving the overall ion conductivity of the film layer in which the coated electrolyte particles are located, providing a better electrical contact network, and taking into account manufacturing costs. This can adjust the manufacturing cost of the solid electrolyte body and the amount of oxygen storage material required to prepare the coated electrolyte particles. A relatively small particle size of the coated electrolyte particles is beneficial for improving the electrical contact between the positive electrode active particles within the positive electrode film or positive electrode layer, thereby promoting the full capacity of the solid-state battery. A relatively moderate particle size of the coated electrolyte particles is easier to manufacture.

[0051] In some embodiments, the sulfide electrolyte includes one or more of an argyrodite-type sulfide electrolyte, an LGPS-type sulfide electrolyte, and a lithium sulfide pentasulfide diphosphorus complex-type sulfide electrolyte.

[0052] In some embodiments, the sulfide electrolyte satisfies one or more of the following characteristics:

[0053] The argyrodite-type electrolyte includes a chemical formula of Li 6±s P1-j A j S 5±s-t B t X 1±s sulfide electrolyte of, where 0 ≤ j < 1, 0 ≤ t < 1, 0 ≤ s < 1, A is selected from one or more elements of Ge, Si, Sn, and Sb, B is one or more elements of O, Se, and Te, and X is selected from one or more elements of Cl, Br, I, and F;

[0054] The LGPS-based sulfide electrolyte includes a chemical formula of Li 10±δ5 Ge 1-g G g P 2-q Q q S 12-w W w sulfide electrolyte of, where 0 ≤ δ5 < 1, 0 ≤ g ≤ 1, 0 ≤ q ≤ 2, 0 ≤ w < 1, G is selected from one or two elements of Si and Sn, Q is Sb, and W is selected from one or more elements of O, Se, Te, Cl, Br, I, and F;

[0055] The lithium sulfide phosphorus pentasulfide complex-based sulfide electrolyte includes a chemical formula of (100 - u - v)Li2S·uP2S5·vM m N n sulfide electrolyte of, where 0 < u < 100, 0 ≤ v < 100, 0 ≤ u + v < 100, 0 ≤ m < 4, 0 ≤ n < 6, M is selected from one or more elements of Li, B, Ge, Si, Sn, and Sb, and N is selected from one or more elements of S, Se, Te, O, Cl, Br, I, and F.

[0056] By using the foregoing solid-state battery materials, sulfide electrolytes with high ion transport rates can be more flexibly used in sulfide solid-state batteries, greatly reducing the material selection limitations of sulfide electrolytes.

[0057] In some embodiments, the solid-state battery material is a sulfide solid-state battery material.

[0058] In some embodiments, the solid-state battery material is a sulfide all-solid-state battery material.

[0060] The positive electrode active material layer provided in the second aspect of the present application includes at least one of coated positive electrode active particles and coated electrolyte particles. When the positive electrode active material layer is applied to a sulfide solid-state battery, the oxygen storage material in the oxygen storage layer absorbs oxygen, which can reduce the contact probability between the sulfide electrolyte and oxygen, thereby improving the chemical stability of the sulfide electrolyte during the battery preparation process, and is conducive to giving full play to the role of the sulfide electrolyte in rapid ion conduction, thereby promoting the stable operation of the solid-state battery and improving the discharge capacity and cycle performance of the sulfide solid-state battery. In addition, the oxygen storage layer provided on the surface of the coated electrolyte particles can also reduce or isolate the direct contact between the sulfide electrolyte and moisture in the air, inhibit the decomposition of the sulfide electrolyte and the generation of hydrogen sulfide gas, and is conducive to improving the chemical stability of the sulfide electrolyte.

[0061] In some embodiments, the positive electrode active material layer includes positive electrode active particles; the positive electrode active particles include the coated positive electrode active particles, and the weight proportion of the coated positive electrode active particles in the positive electrode active material layer is 70wt% to 99wt%, optionally 80wt% to 95wt%.

[0062] In some embodiments, the positive electrode active material layer includes positive electrode electrolyte particles; the positive electrode electrolyte particles include the coated electrolyte particles, and the weight proportion of the coated electrolyte particles in the positive electrode active material layer is 0.1wt% to 30wt%, optionally 5wt% to 20wt%.

[0063] By controlling the weight ratio of the coated positive electrode active particles in the positive electrode active material layer within the above range, it is beneficial to achieve both high energy density and cycle stability.

[0064] When the positive electrode active material layer also includes a sulfide-based electrolyte, by controlling the weight proportion of the coated positive electrode active particles in the positive electrode active material layer within the above range, it is also beneficial to achieve a balance between high energy density and reducing the oxidative decomposition of the sulfide electrolyte contained in the sulfide-based electrolyte.

[0065] The weight percentage of the coated electrolyte particles in the positive electrode active material layer can be controlled within the aforementioned range, which is beneficial for the positive electrode film to provide better overall ion conductivity.

[0134] As used herein, "combination thereof", "any combination thereof", "any combination thereof" and the like include all suitable combinations of any two or more of the listed items.

[0136] Herein, the terms "preferred," "better," "more preferable," "suitable," "comparatively better," and "preferable" are used solely to describe preferred implementations or examples and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this application.

[0141] In this application, when referring to a data range, if the unit is followed only by the right endpoint, it means that the units of the left and right endpoints are the same. For example, "3~5h" or "3-5h" both mean that the units of the left endpoint "3" and the right endpoint "5" are both hours, and both have the same meaning as "3h~5h". Similarly, descriptions of other parameters such as temperature and size are to be understood in the same manner.

[0142] The weight or mass of the relevant components mentioned in the embodiments or examples of the present application can not only refer to the content of each component, but also represent the proportional relationship of weight or mass between each component. Therefore, as long as the content of the relevant components in accordance with the embodiments or examples of the present application is proportionally enlarged or reduced, it is within the scope described in the present application. Further, the mass involved in the embodiments or examples of the present application can be mass units known to the chemical industry such as micrograms (μg), milligrams (mg), grams (g), kilograms (kg). Unless otherwise specified, the mass ratio is equal to the corresponding weight ratio, such as the mass of substance A is m1 and the weight is W1, the mass of substance B is m2 and the weight is W2, then the mass ratio m1 / m2 of the two is numerically equal to the corresponding weight ratio W1 / W2.

[0143] In this application, unless otherwise specified, wt% represents weight percentage by weight and is numerically equivalent to the corresponding mass percentage by mass. In this application, when a weight percentage is represented by "0", it has the same meaning as "0wt%" and can be used interchangeably.

[0144] The units of parameters involved in this application, unless otherwise specified, are nm for nanometers, μm for micrometers, S / cm for Siemens per centimeter, V for volts, mPa·S for millipascals per second, and mg / cm 2 Expressed in milligrams per square centimeter, g / cm 2 Indicates grams per square centimeter, g / cm 3 represents grams per cubic centimeter, ℃ represents degrees Celsius, mA / g represents milliampere per gram, and mAh / g represents milliampere-hour per gram.

In this application, unless otherwise specified, "greater than or equal to" and "≥" can be regarded as providing two solutions of "greater than" and "equal to". In this application, unless otherwise specified, "less than or equal to" and "≤" can be regarded as providing two solutions of "less than" and "equal to".

[0146] In this application, exemplary descriptions such as "in some embodiments (or examples)" and "in one embodiment (or example)" may include but are not limited to the following meanings: these solutions can be combined with other solutions in a suitable manner to form new technical solutions.

[0147] In this application, unless otherwise specified, the "solid-state battery" provided in this application refers to a battery in which the electrolyte in the battery includes a solid electrolyte; generally, a solid-state battery includes a positive electrode layer, a solid electrolyte layer and a negative electrode layer. During the charge and discharge process of the battery, active ions are embedded and released back and forth between the positive electrode layer and the negative electrode layer. The solid electrolyte layer plays the role of conducting ions between the positive electrode layer and the negative electrode layer, and can also isolate the positive electrode layer from the negative electrode layer to prevent the positive and negative electrodes from short-circuiting. Therefore, the isolation membrane in the traditional lithium-ion battery can be omitted in the solid-state battery. The solid-state battery uses a non-flammable solid electrolyte to replace the organic electrolyte in the traditional liquid lithium-ion battery, which greatly improves the safety of the battery. In addition to improving safety, solid-state batteries can better adapt to high-energy-density positive and negative electrode materials and reduce the weight of the system, which is conducive to taking into account the improvement of energy density.

[0148] In this application, unless otherwise specified, the "solid-state battery" in any embodiment or example may be a sulfide solid-state battery. Unless otherwise specified, a "sulfide solid-state battery" refers to a solid-state battery in which the electrolyte involved in the battery includes a sulfide-based solid electrolyte. For example, the sulfide-based solid electrolyte may be located in the positive electrode layer of the sulfide solid-state battery, or may be located in the solid electrolyte layer. The sulfide solid-state battery may further be an all-solid-state battery.

[0149] In this application, unless otherwise specified, "all-solid-state battery" refers to a solid-state battery in which the electrolytes in the battery are all solid electrolytes. In this case, the positive electrode layer, the negative electrode layer and the electrolyte part are all made of solid materials, and no liquid electrolyte is provided in the battery, so it can be called an "all-solid-state battery".

[0150] In this application, unless otherwise specified, a "solid-state battery" in any embodiment or example may be, but is not limited to, a sulfide all-solid-state battery. Unless otherwise specified, a "sulfide all-solid-state battery" refers to an all-solid-state battery in which the electrolyte involved in the battery includes a sulfide-based solid electrolyte. The sulfide-based solid electrolyte can be located in the positive electrode layer of the sulfide all-solid-state battery or in the solid electrolyte layer.

[0151] In this application, unless otherwise specified, "solid electrolyte" refers to an electrolyte material or substance that exists in a solid form during the storage and preparation of a solid-state battery and its components, as well as during the operation of the solid-state battery. It is understood that the solid electrolyte exists in a solid form, including but not limited to, at room temperature.

[0152] In the present application, unless otherwise specified, the electrode layer may be a positive electrode layer or a negative electrode layer, and the "active material" in the electrode layer refers to a substance that can reversibly embed and release active ions. Unless otherwise specified, "negative electrode active material" refers to a substance used in the negative electrode layer that can reversibly embed and release active ions; "positive electrode active material" refers to a substance used in the positive electrode layer that can reversibly release and embed active ions. When the solid-state battery is charging, the active ions are released from the positive electrode and embedded in the negative electrode through the solid electrolyte layer; when the solid-state battery is discharging, the active ions are released from the negative electrode and embedded in the positive electrode. There is no special limitation on the active ions. Non-restrictively, the active ions can be lithium ions, which corresponds to a lithium-ion solid-state battery.

[0153] In this application, "electrode active material", "electrode active substance", "active material" and "active substance" have the same meaning and can be used interchangeably; "positive electrode active substance" and "positive electrode active material" have the same meaning and can be used interchangeably; "negative electrode active substance" and "negative electrode active material" have the same meaning and can be used interchangeably. "Positive electrode active substance" and "positive electrode active material" have the same meaning and can be used interchangeably; "negative electrode active substance" and "negative electrode active material" have the same meaning and can be used interchangeably.

[0154] In this application, unless otherwise specified, the term "electrode active material layer" includes at least one of the positive electrode active material layer in the positive electrode layer and the negative electrode active material layer in the negative electrode layer. Depending on the specific circumstances, the electrode active material layer may refer to the positive electrode active material layer or the negative electrode active material layer. It is understood that the positive electrode active material layer contains a positive electrode active substance, and the negative electrode active material layer contains a negative electrode active substance. In this application, the term "electrode active material layer" may also be referred to as the "active material layer."

[0155] In the present application, unless otherwise specified, the positive electrode layer at least includes a positive electrode active material layer.

[0156] In the present application, unless otherwise specified, the positive electrode active material layer includes at least positive electrode active particles and generally also includes positive electrode electrolyte particles.

[0157] In this application, unless otherwise specified, “positive electrode active particles” refer to particles containing positive electrode active materials, which have the ability to reversibly release and embed active ions.

[0158] In this application, unless otherwise specified, "positive electrode electrolyte particles" and "positive electrode solid electrolyte" have the same meaning and can be used interchangeably to refer to solid electrolytes that can be used in positive electrode membranes or positive electrode layers. Positive electrode electrolyte particles can enhance the ion conductivity of the positive electrode membrane or positive electrode layer and reduce interfacial impedance, thereby promoting the charge transfer efficiency between the positive electrode active material and the outside world and fully releasing its capacity.

[0159] In this application, unless otherwise specified, “negative electrode active particles” refer to particles containing negative electrode active materials, which have the ability to reversibly embed and de-embed active ions.

[0160] In addition to using solid electrolyte materials in the solid electrolyte layer, solid electrolyte materials are also usually provided in the positive electrode layer. The current common practice for solid-state batteries is to adopt a composite positive electrode model on the positive electrode side of the solid-state battery, and to set positive electrode active materials and solid electrolytes in the positive electrode at the same time, and to use solid electrolytes to enhance the ion conductivity of the positive electrode side, promote the charge transfer efficiency between the positive electrode active material and the outside world and the full release of its capacity, and reduce impedance; at the same time, the electronic conductivity of the positive electrode active material itself is used to conduct electrons to improve the cycle stability of the battery. Among the many solid electrolyte materials, sulfide solid electrolytes have an ultra-high ionic conductivity (about 10 -3 ~10 -2 S / cm, almost the same as commercial liquid electrolytes) and good flexibility, giving it excellent ion conductivity and good deformation ability, making it a solid electrolyte material with the most practical and industrial prospects.

[0161] However, sulfide solid electrolytes have poor air stability and are sensitive to moisture and oxygen in the air. They easily release hydrogen sulfide gas when in contact with air, causing a decrease in ionic conductivity and posing certain safety risks, which seriously restricts the practical application of sulfide solid electrolytes.

[0162] On the one hand, sulfide solid electrolytes easily absorb moisture from the air and react, resulting in the production of toxic hydrogen sulfide gas, which also impairs the rapid ion conductivity of the sulfide solid electrolyte. During the preparation of solid-state batteries, the positive electrode layer and the solid electrolyte layer inevitably come into contact with moisture in the air. During the preparation and assembly of solid-state batteries, the air instability of the sulfide electrolyte causes the sulfide solid electrolyte in the positive electrode layer and the solid electrolyte layer to decompose, resulting in impaired ion conductivity. This will increase the interfacial impedance between the positive electrode active particles and the positive electrode electrolyte particles in the positive electrode layer, and between the positive electrode layer and the solid electrolyte layer, affecting the electrochemical performance of the prepared solid-state battery and damaging the battery's cycle performance.

[0163] On the other hand, sulfide solid electrolytes also have the disadvantage of being easily oxidized and decomposed. Oxygen in the air and oxygen that may be released from the positive electrode layer during battery operation will also attack the sulfide solid electrolyte, which may cause oxidative decomposition of the sulfide electrolyte, thereby reducing the rapid ion conductivity of the sulfide solid electrolyte, increasing the interface impedance inside the positive electrode layer and between the positive electrode layer and the solid electrolyte layer, deteriorating the electrochemical properties of the prepared solid-state battery, and damaging the battery's cycle performance.

[0164] Based on this, according to various embodiments and examples of the present application, the embodiments and examples of the present application provide at least solid-state battery materials, positive electrode active material layers, positive electrode films, solid electrolyte membranes, solid-state batteries, electrical devices, and applications. Using this solid-state battery material as a raw material can improve the discharge capacity and cycle performance of sulfide solid-state batteries.

[0165] In a first aspect of the present application, a solid-state battery material is provided, comprising a coated particle, the coated particle comprising a particle body and an oxygen storage layer located at at least a portion of a surface of the particle body, the oxygen storage layer comprising an oxygen storage material;

[0166] Wherein, the coated particles are at least one of coated positive electrode active particles and coated electrolyte particles;

[0167] When the coated particles are coated positive electrode active particles, the particle body is a positive electrode active body, and the positive electrode active body contains a positive electrode active material;

[0168] When the coated particles are coated electrolyte particles, the particle body is a solid electrolyte body, and the solid electrolyte body contains a sulfide electrolyte.

[0169] In this application, unless otherwise specified, "solid-state battery material" refers to a material that can be used in solid-state batteries, but is not limited to such applications. Unless otherwise specified, the solid-state battery material does not contain liquid electrolytes except for the coated particles.

[0170] In some embodiments, the solid-state battery material may be a sulfide solid-state battery material. Unless otherwise specified, a "sulfide solid-state battery material" is a material that can be used in sulfide solid-state batteries, but is not limited to such applications. Unless otherwise specified, the sulfide solid-state battery material includes a sulfide-based solid electrolyte. For example, when the sulfide solid-state battery material includes coated electrolyte particles, the coated electrolyte particles themselves are a sulfide-based solid electrolyte; for another example, when the sulfide solid-state battery material includes coated positive electrode active particles, the sulfide solid-state battery material also includes a sulfide-based electrolyte.

[0171] For example, the sulfide solid-state battery material can further be an all-solid-state battery material. Unless otherwise specified, "all-solid-state battery material" refers to a material that can be used in all-solid-state batteries, but is not limited to such applications. Unless otherwise specified, all-solid-state battery materials do not include liquid electrolytes.

[0172] In some embodiments, the solid-state battery material can be a sulfide all-solid-state battery material. Unless otherwise specified, a "sulfide all-solid-state battery material" is a material that can be applied to a sulfide all-solid-state battery, but is not limited to this application. Unless otherwise specified, the sulfide all-solid-state battery material includes a sulfide-based solid electrolyte and no liquid electrolyte is provided. For example, when the sulfide all-solid-state battery material includes coated electrolyte particles, the coated electrolyte particles are a sulfide-based solid electrolyte; for another example, when the sulfide all-solid-state battery material includes coated positive electrode active particles, the sulfide all-solid-state battery material also includes a sulfide-based electrolyte.

[0173] In this application, unless otherwise specified, the "solid-state battery" involved in the implementation methods or examples of this application may be a sulfide solid-state battery.

[0174] In some embodiments, a "sulfide solid-state battery" comprises a sulfide-based electrolyte in at least one of the solid electrolyte layer and the positive electrode active material layer.

[0175] In this application, unless otherwise specified, "sulfide electrolyte", "sulfide electrolyte component" and "sulfide solid electrolyte component" have the same meaning and can be used interchangeably, referring to a solid electrolyte component in the form of sulfide, wherein the sulfide electrolyte includes sulfur (S) element in the form of sulfide. The existence form of the "sulfide electrolyte" involved in the embodiments or examples of the present application is not particularly limited, and it can be an independent sulfide electrolyte substance or a part of a composite material, such as a sulfide electrolyte component located inside the coated electrolyte particles (in this case, the solid electrolyte body coating the electrolyte particles contains a sulfide electrolyte). The "sulfide electrolyte" involved in the embodiments or examples of the present application can be in either the solid electrolyte layer or the positive electrode layer, can be contained in the positive electrode electrolyte particles, or can be contained in the electrolyte substance of the solid electrolyte layer.

[0176] In this application, unless otherwise specified, "sulfide-based electrolyte," "sulfide-based solid electrolyte," and "sulfide-based electrolyte particles" have the same meaning and can be used interchangeably. They refer to a solid electrolyte containing a sulfide electrolyte component, which can be the sulfide electrolyte itself, or a coating layer provided on the surface of the sulfide electrolyte, but is not limited thereto. The coating layer provided on the surface of the sulfide electrolyte can be an oxygen storage layer, but is not limited thereto. Without limitation, the sulfide-based electrolyte provided with a coating layer can be the coated electrolyte particles involved in the embodiments or examples of this application.

[0177] In this application, unless otherwise specified, the types of sulfide electrolyte components contained in different locations or materials of a "sulfide solid-state battery" can be the same or different. For example, the types of sulfide electrolyte components contained in the positive electrode layer and the solid electrolyte layer can be the same or different. The types of sulfide electrolyte components in the coated electrolyte particles and the sulfide-based electrolyte without an oxygen storage layer can also be the same or different.

[0178] In this application, unless otherwise specified, a "coated particle" is a solid object comprising a particle body and an oxygen storage layer located on at least a portion of the particle body's surface. The oxygen storage layer may be located on a portion of the particle body's surface or may completely coat the particle body. In some embodiments, the coated particle comprises a particle body and an oxygen storage layer located on a portion of the particle body's surface.

[0179] In this application, unless otherwise specified, "oxygen storage layer" refers to a layer containing oxygen storage material, which may be continuous or discontinuous. For example, the oxygen storage layer may be continuously or discontinuously distributed on the surface of the particle body.

[0180] In this application, unless otherwise specified, "oxygen storage material" refers to a material capable of absorbing and storing oxygen molecules or atoms. Unless otherwise specified, the oxygen storage material referred to in this application, after absorbing and storing oxygen, is capable of substantially maintaining the ability to retain the absorbed oxygen during the storage and preparation of solid-state batteries and components comprising such batteries, with substantially no reversible release of oxygen.

[0181] In this application, unless otherwise specified, "particle body" refers to the internal solid portion of the coated particle that is coated by the oxygen storage layer. Unless otherwise specified, the "particle body" itself does not contain oxygen storage material. The structure and shape of the particle body are not particularly limited. The particle body itself may or may not have a coating layer. It is understood that the coating layer of the particle body itself does not contain oxygen storage material. As a non-limiting example, the positive electrode active body in the coated positive electrode active particle may include a coating layer.

[0182] In this application, unless otherwise specified, “located on at least a portion of the surface of the X solid” means located on at least a portion of the surface of the X solid.

[0183] This solid-state battery material can be used as a sulfide solid-state battery material, comprising coated particles provided with a surface oxygen storage layer, wherein the oxygen storage layer is located on at least a portion of the surface of the coated particles; the coated particles can be positive electrode active particles coated with a surface oxygen storage layer, or can be sulfide-based electrolyte particles coated with a surface oxygen storage layer, or can be a combination of the two coated particles coated with a surface oxygen storage layer. When using this solid-state battery material to prepare a sulfide solid-state battery, the oxygen storage material in the oxygen storage layer absorbs oxygen, which can reduce the contact probability between the sulfide electrolyte and oxygen, thereby improving the chemical stability of the sulfide electrolyte during the battery preparation process, facilitating full utilization of the sulfide electrolyte's rapid ion conduction function, thereby promoting stable operation of the solid-state battery and improving the discharge capacity and cycle performance of the sulfide solid-state battery.

[0184] It should be noted that any one of the solid-state battery materials, sulfide solid battery materials or sulfide all-solid-state battery materials described in this application can be directly introduced into the preparation process of the solid-state battery, sulfide battery or sulfide all-solid-state battery in solid form by a dry method, or can be introduced into the battery preparation process in the form of a slurry by a wet method, and then the solvent is removed by a subsequent drying process, leaving only the solid material in the solid-state battery material, sulfide solid battery material or sulfide all-solid-state battery material in the battery.

[0185] In some embodiments, the solid-state battery material is a solid material whose constituent materials are all solid.

[0186] In some embodiments, the solid-state battery material is a slurry composed of a solid material and a dispersion solvent. It is understood that the solid material in the slurry includes at least the aforementioned coated particles. Typically, the dispersion solvent is a non-aqueous solvent. As non-limiting examples, the removable solvent may include one or more of p-xylene, trimethylbenzene, butyl butyrate, heptane, and the like, and may further include p-xylene.

[0187] In some embodiments, the solid-state battery material is used to form a cathode film or a cathode layer in a solid-state battery, and can further be applied to a cathode layer or cathode film containing a sulfide electrolyte component. Without limitation, the sulfide electrolyte component can be provided by coated electrolyte particles in the solid-state battery material, or by cathode electrolyte particles in the form of sulfide.

[0188] In some embodiments of the present application, a coated electrolyte particle is provided. The coated electrolyte particle is a coated particle in the present application, wherein the particle body is a solid electrolyte body, and the solid electrolyte body contains a sulfide electrolyte.

[0189] In this application, unless otherwise specified, "coated electrolyte particles" include a solid electrolyte body and an oxygen storage layer located on at least a portion of the surface of the solid electrolyte body, wherein the solid electrolyte body comprises a sulfide electrolyte, and the oxygen storage layer comprises an oxygen storage material. Thus, coated electrolyte particles are sulfide-based electrolyte particles having an oxygen storage layer disposed on their surface. Without limitation, coated electrolyte particles can be obtained by coating a sulfide-based electrolyte (e.g., sulfide electrolyte particles) without an oxygen storage layer with an oxygen storage material.

[0190] The coated electrolyte particles can be used as a solid electrolyte in the solid electrolyte layer of a solid-state battery, or as a solid electrolyte in an electrode active material layer (i.e., as a positive electrode electrolyte particle), for example, as a solid electrolyte in a positive electrode active material layer. When the coated electrolyte particles are used to prepare a separate solid electrolyte membrane or positive electrode membrane, or when a positive electrode layer is formed on a base membrane (such as a solid electrolyte membrane), and in the process of preparing a solid-state battery using a membrane sheet containing the coated electrolyte particles, the oxygen storage layer provided on the surface of the coated electrolyte particles can protect the sulfide electrolyte, reduce or isolate the decomposition effect of oxygen in the air on the sulfide electrolyte, thereby improving the chemical stability of the sulfide electrolyte during the battery preparation process, and helping the sulfide electrolyte to fully exert its fast ion conduction function, promote the stable operation of the solid-state battery, and improve the discharge capacity and cycle performance of the sulfide solid-state battery. In addition, the oxygen storage layer provided on the surface of the coated electrolyte particles can also reduce or isolate the direct contact between the sulfide electrolyte and moisture in the air, inhibit the decomposition of the sulfide electrolyte and the generation of hydrogen sulfide gas, and help improve the chemical stability of the sulfide electrolyte. It can be seen that by setting an oxygen storage layer on the surface of the sulfide electrolyte, the oxygen storage material in the oxygen storage layer can absorb and store oxygen. In addition, it can also block the direct contact between the sulfide electrolyte and moisture, thereby giving the coated electrolyte particles better air stability.

[0191] In some embodiments of the present application, a coated positive electrode active particle is provided. The coated positive electrode active particle is another type of coated particle in the present application, wherein the particle body is a positive electrode active body, and the positive electrode active body contains a positive electrode active material.

[0192] In this application, unless otherwise specified, "coated positive electrode active particles" include a positive electrode active body and an oxygen storage layer located on at least a portion of the surface of the positive electrode active body. The positive electrode active body includes a positive electrode active material, and the oxygen storage layer includes an oxygen storage material. Thus, coated positive electrode active particles are positive electrode active particles having an oxygen storage layer disposed on their surface. Without limitation, coated electrolyte particles can be obtained by coating positive electrode active particles without an oxygen storage layer with an oxygen storage material.

[0193] The coated positive electrode active particles can provide positive electrode active materials in the positive electrode layer of the solid-state battery, that is, they can be used as positive electrode active particles. For solid-state batteries, generally, positive electrode electrolyte particles are arranged in the positive electrode active material layer of the positive electrode layer to play the role of accelerating ion conduction, reducing interface impedance, and giving full play to the capacity of the positive electrode active particles. When the positive electrode electrolyte particles are sulfide-based electrolytes, that is, containing sulfide electrolytes, during the preparation of the positive electrode film, the positive electrode layer of the solid-state battery, and the preparation of the solid-state battery, the oxygen storage layer arranged on the surface of the coated positive electrode active particles can absorb and store oxygen, which can reduce or isolate the attack and decomposition of oxygen in the air on the sulfide electrolyte, thereby improving the chemical stability of the sulfide electrolyte during the battery preparation process, which is conducive to the sulfide electrolyte giving full play to its role of rapid ion conduction, reducing interface resistance, promoting the stable operation of the solid-state battery, and improving the discharge capacity and cycle performance of the sulfide solid-state battery. In addition, it can also improve the rate performance of the solid-state battery. It can be seen that by providing an oxygen storage layer on the surface of the positive electrode active material, it can also play a role in protecting the sulfide-based electrolyte mixed with it, thereby improving the air stability of the positive electrode electrolyte particles and the positive electrode layer, which is beneficial to improving the aforementioned electrochemical properties of the solid-state battery.

[0194] The oxygen storage materials involved in the embodiments or examples of the present application can be oxygen storage materials known in the art.

[0195] In some embodiments, the oxygen storage material is a "chemical oxygen storage material" that absorbs and fixes oxygen through a chemical reaction with oxygen.

[0196] Without limitation, the oxygen storage material may include one or more of lanthanide metal oxysulfate type oxygen storage materials, yttrium barium cobalt oxide type oxygen storage materials and perovskite type oxygen storage materials. These oxygen storage materials can absorb and fix oxygen (O) by storing it in the lattice of the oxygen storage material. 7+δ Taking (YBCO) oxygen storage material as an example, the stoichiometric ratio of its oxygen (O) element can change within a certain range, storing oxygen molecules or oxygen atoms in the lattice of the oxygen storage material, thereby absorbing and fixing oxygen, and its oxygen storage capacity is very high, which can reach 2700μmol O / g. As a non-limiting example, the absorption and fixation of oxygen by lanthanide metal sulfate-type oxygen storage materials, yttrium barium cobalt oxide-type oxygen storage materials and perovskite-type oxygen storage materials are relatively stable, and reversible release of oxygen will not occur during the storage and process involved in solid-state batteries and their components. Taking YBaCo4O 7+δ For example, oxygen re-release may occur when heated to extremely high temperatures above 200°C.

[0202] In some embodiments, the thickness of the oxygen storage layer is 0.1 nm to 50 nm, optionally 0.5 nm to 10 nm, and may also be any of the following thicknesses or a range consisting of any two of the following thicknesses: 0.1 nm, 0.2 nm, 0.4 nm, 0.5 nm, 0.6 nm, 0.8 nm, 1 nm, 2 nm, 3 nm, 4 nm, 5 nm, 6 nm, 8 nm, 10 nm, 12 nm, 15 nm, 16 nm, 18 nm, 20 nm, 25 nm, 30 nm, 35 nm, 40 nm, 45 nm, 50 nm, etc. The oxygen storage layer may be an oxygen storage layer coating the positive electrode active particles or an oxygen storage layer coating the electrolyte particles.

[0203] In some embodiments, the coated particles meet one or more of the following characteristics (any numerical parameter in the following characteristics can also be selected from any suitable value or range in the context):

[0204] The weight proportion of the oxygen storage material in the coated particles (such as coated positive electrode active particles or coated electrolyte particles) is 0.1wt% to 10wt%, and can be optionally 0.5wt% to 5wt%;

[0205] The thickness of the oxygen storage layer is 0.1 nm to 50 nm, and can be optionally 0.5 nm to 10 nm.

[0206] By controlling either the weight percentage of the oxygen storage material in the coated particles or the thickness of the oxygen storage layer, the amount of oxygen storage material coated can be adjusted. It is understood that adjusting both parameters simultaneously can also adjust the amount of oxygen storage material coated. By controlling at least one of the weight percentage of the oxygen storage material in the coated particles and the thickness of the oxygen storage layer within the aforementioned range, not only is it beneficial to improve the stability of the sulfide electrolyte components involved in the solid-state battery preparation process, but it also helps the sulfide electrolyte fully utilize its rapid ion conductivity.

[0215] For those skilled in the art, according to the structure and chemical composition of the coating material described in this application, it can be prepared by using methods including but not limited to existing particle coating methods. As a non-limiting example, such as physical coating methods. The solid oxygen storage material can be coated onto at least a portion of the surface of the particle body (such as the positive electrode active body or the solid electrolyte body containing a sulfide electrolyte) using existing physical coating methods. Dry coating can be used, but is not limited to this. Please also refer to the examples below. As otherwise noted, the oxygen storage material can be coated on at least a portion of the surface of the particle body in an inert atmosphere (such as an argon atmosphere).

[0216] In some embodiments, an oxygen storage material having a suitable particle size (corresponding to oxygen storage particles) can be mixed with the particle body according to the desired coating amount and heat treated to obtain coated particles with the desired structure and chemical composition. In some embodiments, the YBCO-coated lithium transition metal oxide (such as lithium nickel cobalt manganese oxide, further such as NCM 811 ) as an example, the heat treatment temperature can be 450°C for 5 hours.

[0217] In some embodiments, the oxygen storage material with a suitable particle size (corresponding to oxygen storage particles) can be made into a glue solution, which is then fully mixed with the particle body according to the required coating amount, and then heated to obtain coated particles with the required structure and chemical composition.

During the in-situ reaction, the pH value of the reaction system can be adjusted by a pH adjuster. After the collected solid intermediate is sintered, an oxygen storage layer can be formed on at least a portion of the surface of the particle body to obtain coated particles with an oxygen storage layer. 0.8 Sr 0.2 CoO3 coated lithium transition metal oxides (such as lithium nickel cobalt manganese oxide, further such as NCM 811 ) as an example, the precursor materials of the oxygen storage material can be La(NO3)3·6H2O, Co(NO3)2·6H2O and Sr(NO3)2, the solvent can be water, the auxiliary agent can be hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide, the pH regulator can be ammonia water, the pH value of the reaction system can be 9, the temperature for the in-situ reaction can be 80°C, and the conditions for the sintering treatment can include heating at 500°C for 5h.

Elemental analysis methods such as energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD) technology, and inductively coupled plasma spectrometer (ICP method) can also be combined to detect and identify whether the coating contains oxygen storage materials and the element types and chemical composition of the particles themselves. These methods can also be used to analyze parameters such as the thickness of the oxygen storage layer, the weight proportion or weight percentage of the oxygen storage layer in the oxygen storage material in the coated particles.

[0220] In some embodiments, the coated particle 80 includes a particle body 82 and an oxygen storage layer 84 located on the surface of the particle body 82. Please refer to FIG1 .

[0221] In some embodiments, the coated particle 80 includes a particle body 82 and an oxygen storage layer 84 located on the surface of the particle body 82. The oxygen storage layer 84 includes an oxygen storage material 842. See FIG. 2 .

[0222] In some embodiments of the present application, at least two coated particles are provided (see Figure 3), one is a coated positive electrode active particle 820, and the other is a coated electrolyte particle 810; the coated positive electrode active particle 820 includes a positive electrode active body 822 and an oxygen storage layer 84 located on the surface of the positive electrode active body 822, and the oxygen storage layer 84 includes an oxygen storage material 842; the coated electrolyte particle 810 includes a solid electrolyte body 812 and an oxygen storage layer 84 located on the surface of the solid electrolyte body 812, and the oxygen storage layer 84 includes an oxygen storage material 842.

[0224] In this application, unless otherwise specified, “particle size of oxygen storage particles” refers to the maximum diameter of the oxygen storage particles in each direction.

[0225] In this application, the "particle size of the oxygen storage particles" can be tested and analyzed using particle size analysis methods such as transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and laser particle size analysis. These testing methods can also be used to test and analyze the particle size of other particulate matter involved in this application (such as coated positive electrode active particles, coated electrolyte particles, positive electrode active particles, granular electrolyte materials, raw materials for providing particle bodies, etc.), such as parameters such as particle size and particle size distribution, and the average values ​​of some size parameters.

[0226] The oxygen storage material in the oxygen storage layer can be granular oxygen storage particles. In this case, the specific surface area of ​​the oxygen storage particles can be adjusted by controlling the particle size of the oxygen storage particles. Controlling the particle size within the aforementioned range helps the particles have a larger oxygen-absorbing surface area, allowing the oxygen storage material to better perform its aforementioned function of absorbing and storing oxygen, while also further facilitating its ability to isolate moisture from the air.

[0227] In some embodiments, the D coating the positive electrode active particles v50 is 0.1μm to 20μm, and can be optionally 1μm to 10μm, or can be any of the following sizes or an interval consisting of any two of the following sizes: 0.1μm, 0.2μm, 0.3μm, 0.4μm, 0.5μm, 0.6μm, 0.8μm, 1μm, 1.5μm, 2μm, 2.5μm, 3μm, 3.5μm, 4μm, 4.5μm, 5μm, 5.5μm, 6μm, 6.5μm, 7μm, 7.5μm, 8μm, 8.5μm, 9μm, 9.5μm, 10μm, 10.5μm, 11μm, 11.5μm, 12μm, 12.5μm, 13μm, 13.5μm, 14μm, 14.5μm, 15μm, 15.5μm, 16μm, 16.5μm, 17μm, 17.5μm, 18μm, 18.5μm, 19μm, 19.5μm, 20μm, etc.

[0228] In the context of this application, the volume cumulative distribution particle size D can be used v N (where N represents any value selected from 0 to 100) is used to characterize the particle size of the material, which refers to the particle size corresponding to when the cumulative volume distribution percentage of the material reaches N%. The particle size is less than or equal to D v The volume percentage of N is N%. v N can be obtained from the volume cumulative distribution curve of the material particle size. If there is no other explanation, the volume cumulative distribution curve starts from zero from the small particle size side. v 50 is used as an example. In this application, if there is no other description, D v 50 refers to the particle size corresponding to when the cumulative volume distribution percentage of the material reaches 50%. This parameter indicates that the particle size of 50% of the material volume is less than or equal to D v 50, and 50% of the volume of the material has a particle size larger than D v 50. Those skilled in the art will understand that v 50, and can be measured using instruments and methods known in the art. For example, it can be conveniently measured using a laser particle size analyzer, such as the Mastersizer 2000E laser particle size analyzer or the LS-909 laser particle size analyzer (Omega), manufactured by Malvern Instruments Ltd., UK, in accordance with GB / T 19077-2016 Particle Size Distribution by Laser Diffraction Method. Furthermore, for equipment such as the Malvern 2000 laser particle size analyzer, testing can be performed according to the standard procedure GB / T 19077-2016 / ISO 13320:2009.

[0229] In some embodiments, the particle size of the positive electrode active body is 0.1 μm to 20 μm, optionally 1 μm to 10 μm, and can also be any of the following sizes or an interval consisting of any two of the following sizes: 0.1 μm, 0.2 μm, 0.3 μm, 0.4 μm, 0.5 μm, 0.6 μm, 0.8 μm, 1 μm, 1.5 μm, 2 μm, 2.5 μm, 3 μm, 3.5 μm, 4 μm, 4.5 μm, 5 μm, 5.5 μm, 6 μm m, 6.5μm, 7μm, 7.5μm, 8μm, 8.5μm, 9μm, 9.5μm, 10μm, 10.5μm, 11μm, 11.5μm, 12μm, 12.5μm, 13μm, 13. 5μm, 14μm, 14.5μm, 15μm, 15.5μm, 16μm, 16.5μm, 17μm, 17.5μm, 18μm, 18.5μm, 19μm, 19.5μm, 20μm, etc.

[0230] In this application, unless otherwise specified, “particle size of the positive electrode active body” refers to the maximum diameter of the positive electrode active body in each direction.

[0231] In this application, the size of a part of the particles, such as "particle size of the positive electrode active body" and "particle size of the solid electrolyte body", can also be tested and analyzed using particle structure and size analysis methods such as transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and can be analyzed in combination with elemental analysis methods.

[0232] In some embodiments, the coated positive electrode active particles satisfy at least one of the following characteristics (any numerical parameter in the following characteristics can also be selected from any appropriate numerical value or range in the context):

[0233] D coated positive electrode active particles v 50 is 0.1μm~20μm, and can be selected as 1μm~10μm; among them, D v 50 represents the particle size corresponding to when the cumulative volume distribution percentage of the multi-particle mixture reaches 50%;

[0234] The particle size of the positive electrode active body is 0.1 μm to 20 μm, and can be optionally 1 μm to 10 μm.

[0235] By adjusting the D v 50 and at least one of the particle size of the positive electrode active body can adjust the size of the coated positive electrode active particles. vControlling at least one of the parameters of the particle size of the active cathode particles (50 and the particle size of the active cathode particles) within the aforementioned ranges is beneficial for improving the discharge capacity of the coated active cathode particles and maintaining good contact between the coated active cathode particles and the sulfide-based electrolyte within the composite positive electrode. Smaller coated active cathode particles have shorter active ion transport channels within them, which is beneficial for improving the discharge capacity of the coated active cathode particles themselves. Larger coated active cathode particles are better encapsulated by the sulfide-based electrolyte, providing better interfacial contact with the sulfide-based electrolyte and improving battery cycling performance. Coated active cathode particles of relatively moderate size can enable batteries to achieve both high discharge capacity and excellent cycling performance.

[0236] Oxide cathode active materials, such as lithium transition metal oxides, and further examples such as high-nickel cathode active materials, high-voltage lithium cobalt oxide, or lithium-rich manganese cathode active materials, have high operating voltages and high specific capacities. However, due to the electrochemical potential difference between the oxide cathode active material and the sulfide electrolyte, these oxide cathode active materials spontaneously undergo elemental interdiffusion and chemical reactions when in direct contact with the sulfide electrolyte, forming a thick interfacial impedance layer. This increases interfacial resistance and affects solid-state battery performance. Furthermore, when the cathode active material in the cathode active particles includes an oxide cathode active material (such as a lithium transition metal oxide), the oxide cathode active material may release oxygen at high operating voltages (such as greater than 4.2V, such as during the first charge cycle into the high voltage region), which in turn attacks the sulfide solid electrolyte, leading to decomposition of the sulfide solid electrolyte. Oxidative decomposition of the sulfide solid electrolyte may increase interfacial impedance, negatively impacting discharge capacity and resulting in suboptimal electrochemical performance of the battery.

[0237] In some embodiments, the positive electrode active material in the coated positive electrode active particles includes an oxide positive electrode active material. In some embodiments, the oxide positive electrode active material may include but is not limited to lithium transition metal oxides.

[0238] In this application, unless otherwise specified, "oxide positive electrode active material" has the well-known meaning in the art, and refers to a positive electrode active material in the form of an oxide.

[0239] In this application, unless otherwise specified, "lithium transition metal oxide" has the commonly known meaning in the art, and refers to a positive electrode active material containing a transition metal element and lithium. Lithium transition metal oxide is an oxide positive electrode active material.

[0240] By arranging the aforementioned solid-state battery material in the positive electrode active material layer containing an oxide positive electrode active material (such as a lithium transition metal oxide), direct contact between the oxide positive electrode active material and the sulfide electrolyte can be hindered. By absorbing the oxygen that may be released by the positive electrode through the oxygen storage material, the attack of the released oxygen on the sulfide electrolyte can be suppressed, thereby reducing the oxidative decomposition of the sulfide electrolyte by oxygen, and suppressing the interfacial side reactions between the oxide positive electrode active material (such as a lithium transition metal oxide) and the sulfide electrolyte. The increase in interfacial impedance can be suppressed, which is beneficial to improving the stability of the sulfide electrolyte in the positive electrode layer during the cycle of the sulfide solid-state battery, thereby maintaining its excellent electrical conductivity, and is beneficial to long-term ionic conduction of the sulfide electrolyte and giving full play to the capacity of the positive electrode active particles, which can give the sulfide solid-state battery excellent high-voltage stability. Furthermore, the sulfide solid-state battery can have a higher first coulombic efficiency, a higher discharge capacity, a higher rate performance and better cycle performance. In addition, when a certain concentration of oxygen is stored in the oxygen storage material, the oxygen partial pressure on the surface of the positive electrode active particles increases, thereby further hindering the release of oxygen from the positive electrode active particles, thereby enhancing the structural stability of the positive electrode material.

[0241] In some embodiments, during the surface coating heat treatment process (such as 400°C to 600°C), the oxygen storage material can also capture part of the lattice oxygen in the positive electrode active material, form close contact with the positive electrode material, and form oxygen vacancies on the surface of the positive electrode active particles. The oxygen vacancies on the surface of the positive electrode active particles can promote the transmission of electrons and ions on the surface of the positive electrode active particles, thereby further improving the electrochemical performance of the solid-state battery.

[0242] When the positive electrode active material in the positive electrode active particles includes an oxide positive electrode active material (such as a lithium transition metal oxide), by adjusting at least one parameter of the weight ratio of the oxygen storage material in the coated particles and the thickness of the oxygen storage layer (for example, the weight ratio of the oxygen storage material in the coated particles (such as coated positive electrode active particles or coated electrolyte particles) can be controlled to be 0.1wt% to 10wt%, optionally 0.5wt% to 5wt%, and the thickness of the oxygen storage layer can also be controlled to be 0.1nm to 50nm, optionally 0.5nm to 10nm), it is possible to achieve both suppression of oxygen release and good interfacial ion transport. This can not only suppress oxygen release, improve the stability of the sulfide electrolyte, and achieve good discharge capacity and cycle performance, but also achieve good interfacial ion transport and fully utilize the discharge capacity of the positive electrode layer.

[0243] When the positive electrode active material in the positive electrode active particles includes an oxide positive electrode active material (such as lithium transition metal oxide), by adjusting the D v50 and at least one of the particle size of the positive electrode active body, the amount of the oxygen storage material in the oxygen storage layer relative to the positive electrode active material contained in the positive electrode active body can also be indirectly adjusted. v At least one parameter of the particle size of the positive electrode active body is controlled within the above range, which is beneficial for the oxygen storage material to provide sufficient oxygen absorption capacity, and is also beneficial for improving the discharge capacity of the coated positive electrode active particles and maintaining good contact between the coated positive electrode active particles and the sulfide-based electrolyte in the composite positive electrode.

[0244] Without limitation, the weight percentage of the oxide positive electrode active material (such as lithium transition metal oxide) in the positive electrode active body can be greater than or equal to 50wt% (i.e., ≥50wt%), further can be greater than or equal to 60wt%, further can be greater than or equal to 80wt%, further can be greater than or equal to 90wt%, further can be greater than or equal to 95wt%, and further can be 100wt%. The weight percentage of the oxide positive electrode active material (such as lithium transition metal oxide) in the positive electrode active body can also be any of the following weight percentages or an interval consisting of any two of the following weight percentages: 50wt%, 55wt%, 60wt%, 65wt%, 70wt%, 72wt%, 74wt%, 75wt%, 76wt%, 78wt%, 80wt%, 82wt%, 84wt%, 85wt%, 86wt%, 88wt%, 90wt%, 92wt%, 94wt%, 95wt%, 96wt%, 97wt%, 98wt%, 99wt%, 100wt%, etc.

[0245] In some embodiments, the oxide positive electrode active material (such as lithium transition metal oxide) includes one or more of a lithium cobalt oxide-type positive electrode active material, a high nickel positive electrode active material, a lithium manganese-rich positive electrode active material, and a modified form of any of the foregoing positive electrode active materials; the modified form may include one or more of a doping modification and a coating modification.

Without limitation, y2 can also be any of the following values ​​or a range consisting of any two of the following values: 0.6, 0.65, 0.7, 0.75, 0.8, 0.85, 0.90, 0.95, 0.96, etc. Without limitation, y2 can also be selected from any of the following ranges: 0.8≤y2≤1, etc.

[0257] Non-restrictively, the lithium-rich manganese-based cathode active material contains Li element, Mn element and O element with an atomic molar ratio of (1 + p):(p + r(1 - p)):(2 + p), and satisfies 0 < p ≤ 1, 0 ≤ r ≤ 1.

[0263] In some embodiments, the coated electrolyte particles satisfy at least one of the following characteristics (any numerical parameter in the following characteristics can also be selected from any appropriate numerical value or range in the context):

[0265] The particle size of the solid electrolyte body is 1 nm to 20 μm, and can be optionally 50 nm to 5 μm.

[0266] By adjusting the D v 50 and the particle size of the solid electrolyte body can adjust the size of the coated electrolyte particles. v Regulating at least one of the particle size of the solid electrolyte particles (50) and the particle size of the solid electrolyte body within the aforementioned range is beneficial for improving the overall ion conductivity of the film layer in which the coated electrolyte particles are located, providing a better electrical contact network, and taking into account manufacturing costs. This can adjust the manufacturing cost of the solid electrolyte body and the amount of oxygen storage material required to prepare the coated electrolyte particles.

[0271] By using the aforementioned solid - state battery materials, sulfide electrolytes with high ion - transport rates can be more flexibly used in sulfide solid - state batteries, greatly reducing the material - selection limitations of sulfide electrolytes.

[0272] In some embodiments, the sulfide electrolyte in the coated electrolyte particles may include at least one of a binary sulfide solid system and a ternary sulfide solid system.

[0275] In the second aspect of the present application, a positive active material layer is provided, which includes the solid - state battery material described in the first aspect of the present application.

[0276] As a non-limiting example, the positive electrode active material layer may be present in a separate positive electrode membrane or in a positive electrode layer of a solid-state battery.

[0277] It can be understood that the positive electrode active material layer provided in the second aspect of the present application includes at least one of coated positive electrode active particles and coated electrolyte particles. When the positive electrode active material layer is applied to a sulfide solid-state battery, the oxygen storage material in the oxygen storage layer absorbs oxygen, which can reduce the contact probability between the sulfide electrolyte and oxygen, thereby improving the chemical stability of the sulfide electrolyte during the battery preparation process, and is conducive to giving full play to the role of the sulfide electrolyte in rapid ion conduction, thereby promoting the stable operation of the solid-state battery and improving the discharge capacity and cycle performance of the sulfide solid-state battery. In addition, the oxygen storage layer provided on the surface of the coated electrolyte particles can also reduce or isolate the direct contact between the sulfide electrolyte and moisture in the air, inhibit the decomposition of the sulfide electrolyte and the generation of hydrogen sulfide gas, and is conducive to improving the chemical stability of the sulfide electrolyte.

[0278] As defined above, the positive electrode active material layer includes at least positive electrode active particles, which include positive electrode active materials. In some embodiments, the positive electrode active materials in the positive electrode active particles include oxide positive electrode active materials, and further, the positive electrode active materials include lithium transition metal oxides.

[0279] Non-limitingly, the oxide positive electrode active material in the positive electrode active material (such as lithium transition metal oxide) may include lithium transition metal oxides that are well known in the art and can be used as positive electrode active materials in solid-state batteries, but are not limited thereto. Examples of lithium transition metal oxides may include, but are not limited to, one or more of lithium cobalt oxide, lithium nickel oxide, lithium manganese oxide, lithium nickel cobalt oxide, lithium manganese cobalt oxide, lithium nickel manganese oxide, lithium nickel cobalt manganese oxide, lithium nickel cobalt aluminum oxide and modified compounds thereof. Non-limiting examples of lithium cobalt oxide may include LiCoO2; non-limiting examples of lithium nickel oxide may include LiNiO2; non-limiting examples of lithium manganese oxide may include LiMnO2, LiMn2O4, etc.; non-limiting examples of lithium nickel cobalt manganese oxide may include LiNi 1 / 3 Co 1 / 3 Mn 1 / 3 O2 (also referred to as NCM 333 ), LiNi 0.5 Co 0.2 Mn 0.3 O2 (also referred to as NCM 523 ), LiNi 0.5 Co 0.25 Mn 0.25 O2 (also referred to as NCM 211 ), LiNi 0.6Co 0.2 Mn 0.2 O2 (also referred to as NCM 622 ), LiNi 0.8 Co 0.1 Mn 0.1 O2 (also referred to as NCM 811 ) etc. Non-limiting examples of lithium nickel cobalt aluminum oxide may include LiNi 0.80 Co 0.15 Al 0.05 O2.

[0280] Taking a solid-state battery in which active ions include lithium ions as an example, it is understandable that the solid-state battery will be accompanied by the deintercalation and consumption of lithium (Li) during the charge and discharge process, and the content of Li in the positive electrode layer (including the positive electrode film in the context) is different when the battery is discharged to different states. In the exemplary description of the positive electrode active material in this application, unless otherwise specified, the content of Li can be the initial state of the material or the non-initial state after the charge and discharge cycle. The positive electrode active material is applied to the positive electrode layer in the solid-state battery system. After the charge and discharge cycle, the content of Li in the positive electrode active material contained in the positive electrode layer usually changes. Among them, the content of Li can be measured using atomic molar content, but is not limited to this. Regarding "the content of Li is the initial state of the material", the initial state of the material refers to the state before being placed in the positive electrode layer. It can be understood that new materials or new substances obtained by appropriate modification on the basis of the listed positive electrode active materials are also within the scope of positive electrode active materials. The aforementioned appropriate modification refers to an acceptable modification method for the positive electrode active material, and a non-limiting example is coating modification. In the exemplary descriptions of the positive electrode active material in this application, the oxygen (O) content is generally a theoretical value. Lattice oxygen release will cause the atomic molar content of oxygen to change, and the actual O content will fluctuate. The O content can be measured by atomic molar content, but is not limited to this.

[0281] In some embodiments, in addition to oxide positive electrode active materials (such as lithium transition metal oxides), the positive electrode active material may also include other positive electrode active materials that are well known in the art and can be used for solid-state batteries.

However, the present application is not limited to these materials, and other existing materials that can be used as positive electrode active materials for solid-state batteries may also be used. These positive electrode active materials can be used alone or in combination of two or more. Non-limiting examples of lithium-containing phosphates with an olivine structure may include, but are not limited to, one or more of lithium iron phosphate, a composite material of lithium iron phosphate and carbon, lithium manganese phosphate, a composite material of lithium manganese phosphate and carbon, lithium manganese iron phosphate, and a composite material of lithium manganese iron phosphate and carbon.

The weight proportion of the coated positive electrode active particles in the positive electrode active material layer can also be any of the following weight percentages or an interval consisting of any two of the following weight percentages: 70wt%, 72wt%, 74wt%, 75wt%, 76wt%, 78wt%, 80wt%, 82wt%, 84wt%, 85wt%, 86wt%, 88wt%, 90wt%, 92wt%, 94wt%, 95wt%, 96wt%, 97wt%, 98wt%, 99wt%, etc.

[0285] In some embodiments, the positive electrode electrolyte particles include a sulfide-based electrolyte.

[0286] The sulfide electrolyte contained in the sulfide-based electrolyte has very good ion conductivity. By setting the sulfide-based electrolyte in the positive electrode layer, the charge transfer efficiency between the positive electrode active material and the outside world and the full release of its capacity can be better promoted.

[0287] In some embodiments, the positive active material layer includes positive electrolyte particles.

[0288] In some embodiments, the positive electrode electrolyte particles include coated electrolyte particles. In this case, the positive electrode active material layer includes a sulfide-based electrolyte. Without limitation, the weight percentage of the coated electrolyte particles in the positive electrode active material layer may be 0.1 wt% to 30 wt%, and optionally 5 wt% to 20 wt%. The weight proportion of the coated electrolyte particles in the positive electrode active material layer can also be any of the following weight percentages or an interval consisting of any two of the following weight percentages: 0.1wt%, 0.2wt%, 0.4wt%, 0.5wt%, 0.6wt%, 0.8wt%, 1wt%, 1.2wt%, 1.5wt%, 1.6wt%, 1.8wt%, 2wt%, 2.5wt%, 3wt%, 3.5wt%, 4wt%, 5wt%, 6wt%, 7wt%, 8wt%, 9wt%, 10wt%, 12wt%, 14wt%, 15wt%, 16wt%, 18wt%, 20wt%, 22wt%, 24wt%, 25wt%, 26wt%, 28wt%, 30wt%, etc.

[0289] In some embodiments, the positive electrode active material layer includes positive electrode active particles and positive electrode electrolyte particles.

[0424] Y2O3, BaCO3 and Co3O4 are used as raw materials, weighed according to the stoichiometric ratio of the oxygen storage material, mixed and stirred in an organic solvent (ethanol) and ball-milled to make the raw materials uniformly dispersed.

The sintered sample is ground and then heat-treated at 1100°C for 24 hours to obtain YBCO oxygen storage material.

[0425] The XRD pattern of the YBCO oxygen storage material prepared in this example can be seen in Figure 23.

[0426] The obtained YBCO oxygen storage material is ground into nano-sized (1nm~50nm) oxygen storage particles using a sand mill, and then the nano-sized YBCO oxygen storage particles and NCM811 are evenly mixed using a dry coating device. The coating amount of the oxygen storage material is 2wt%, and the obtained material is heat-treated at 450°C in an argon atmosphere for 5h to obtain coated positive electrode active particles, which have a 2wt% YBCO-coated NCM811 positive electrode material structure and can also be recorded as "2wt% YBaCo4O7-coated NCM811 positive electrode active particles" as a backup solid-state battery material.

While the total weight proportion of the positive electrode active particles in the positive electrode active material layer remained unchanged, 15 wt% NCM811 was used instead of the coated positive electrode active particles in Example 1. That is, a mixture of coated positive electrode active particles (2 wt% YBaCo4O7 coated NCM811 positive electrode active particles) and positive electrode active particles without an oxygen storage layer (NCM811) was used as the positive electrode active particles. In the step of preparing the positive electrode film, the weight ratio of the coated positive electrode active particles, positive electrode active particles without an oxygen storage layer, conductive agent VGCF, and binder was 70:15:13:1:1.

[0514] 2. Test Method

[0515] The electrochemical performance of the positive electrode and the corresponding all-solid-state battery was tested using a solid-state mold battery, and the battery test window was 2.8V to 4.3V (relative to lithium potential).

[0516] 1. H2S release test of solid electrolyte materials

[0517] In a -55°C dew point environment, 100mg of electrolyte powder was evenly spread on a 5cm diameter culture dish. The culture dish containing the electrolyte powder was then placed in a 50L box through a sealed transfer box. The sealed transfer box containing the electrolyte powder culture dish was quickly opened in the box and the 50L box was sealed. A hydrogen sulfide sensor (PGM-2500) was placed in the box to record the cumulative value of hydrogen sulfide in the 50L box in real time. The reaction continued until the detection value of the hydrogen sulfide sensor no longer increased, indicating that the electrolyte had completely reacted with the water molecules in the box. At the same time, a fan with a blade diameter of 8cm was placed in the box. Since the density of hydrogen sulfide is greater than that of air, the fan can prevent the hydrogen sulfide gas from settling and make the hydrogen sulfide gas in the 50L box evenly distributed, ensuring the reliability of the hydrogen sulfide gas concentration test. Before the test, the 50L box was in an environment with a relative humidity of 70% RH.

[0518] Please refer to “Ionic conductivity of coated electrolyte particles” in Table 4.

[0519] 2. Ionic conductivity test of solid electrolyte materials

[0520] The ionic conductivity was measured by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The detailed process is as follows: 120 mg of solid electrolyte powder was poured into a 10 mm diameter tablet mold and pressed into a dense disc at 360 MPa. Then, a 10 mm diameter cylindrical stainless steel current collector was used to clamp the solid electrolyte membrane in the mold at 120 MPa. The current collector was then connected to an electrochemical workstation and tested at a bias voltage of 10 mV and a frequency range of 10 6 Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) is performed on solid electrolyte membranes in the range of Hz to 10Hz. The intersection of the curve from the high frequency band to the low frequency band in the electrochemical impedance spectrum and the Z' axis is recorded as the resistance value R. The ionic conductivity can be calculated using formula (1):

[0521] Where d is the thickness of the solid electrolyte membrane, and A is the contact area between the solid electrolyte membrane and the current collector.

[0522] Please refer to “H2S release of coated electrolyte particles” in Table 4.

[0523] 3. First discharge capacity

[0524] The test process is as follows: the assembled all-solid-state battery is charged to 3.68V (4.3V vs. lithium) at a current density of 0.1C, allowed to rest for 10 minutes, and then discharged to 2.18V (2.8V vs. lithium) at a current density of 0.1C to obtain the battery's initial discharge capacity. The battery is tested at 25±3°C, where 1C = 200mA / g.

[0525] This can be included in the “0.1C discharge specific capacity” in Table 3 and the “first discharge capacity” in Table 4.

[0526] 4. First Coulombic efficiency

[0527] The first coulombic efficiency of the battery can be obtained by dividing the first discharge capacity obtained by the first charge capacity tested at 0.1C.

[0528] 5. Rate performance

[0529] The test process is as follows: the charge rate of the all-solid-state battery is fixed at 0.1C, and then discharged at the rates of 0.1C, 0.33C, 1C, 2C, and 3C, respectively. Each rate is cycled 3 times. The battery voltage test window is 2.8~4.3V vs.Li + / Li, the battery was tested at 25±3°C, where 1C=200mA / g.

[0530] 6. Cycle performance

[0531] The assembled all-solid-state battery was first charged and discharged for 3 cycles at a current density of 0.1C to obtain the initial discharge capacity and initial coulombic efficiency. Then, a long cycle test was performed at a current density of 0.33C for 200 cycles to calculate the battery's cycle capacity retention rate. The battery's voltage test window is 2.8-4.3V vs. Li + / Li, the battery was tested at 25±3°C, where 1C=200mA / g.

[0532] 3. Test Analysis Results

The solid-state batteries prepared in each example have good discharge capacity and cycle performance, and further have good rate performance, and further have good first coulomb efficiency. It can be seen that coating at least one of the positive electrode active particles or the sulfide-based electrolyte with an oxygen storage material can improve the electrochemical properties of the sulfide solid-state battery, such as discharge capacity, rate performance, and cycle performance.

[0535] The experimental results of Examples X1 to X16 show that coating sulfide-based electrolytes with oxygen storage materials significantly reduces hydrogen sulfide release, significantly improves air stability, and simultaneously maintains good ionic conductivity. Sulfide solid-state batteries fabricated with these coated electrolyte particles exhibit excellent discharge capacity and cycle performance, as well as good rate capability and initial coulombic efficiency.

[0536] In addition, the battery voltage test window is 2.8 ~ 4.3V vs.Li + / Li, it can be seen that the stability of sulfide solid-state batteries at high voltage operation is significantly improved.

The discharge capacity, first coulombic efficiency and cycle capacity retention rate of the sulfide solid-state battery of Comparative Example X1 are significantly deteriorated, and the cycle performance deteriorates very seriously.

[0541] Compared with Example X1, the positive electrode electrolyte particles of Comparative Examples X2-X3 are coated with non-oxygen storage materials, the hydrogen sulfide release is significantly increased, and the first discharge capacity, first coulombic efficiency and cycle capacity retention rate all deteriorate to varying degrees.

[0542] Compared with Example X1, the positive electrode layer of Comparative Example X4 uses positive electrode electrolyte particles that are co-doped with oxygen storage materials, and the hydrogen sulfide release amount is significantly increased, and the first discharge capacity, first coulombic efficiency and cycle capacity retention rate all deteriorate to varying degrees.
