Description

A lithium oxide composite solid electrolyte, preparation method and application

[0001] CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATIONS

[0002] This application claims priority to Chinese patent application number 202410258212.3, filed with the Patent Office of China on March 6, 2024, entitled “A lithium oxide composite solid electrolyte, preparation method and application”, the entire contents of which are incorporated by reference into this application. Technical Field

[0003] The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of LATP lithium oxide solid electrolyte preparation, and relates to a LATP composite solid electrolyte material and a preparation method and application thereof, and in particular to a lithium oxide composite solid electrolyte, a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0004] New battery technologies are crucial for electric vehicles and smart grids. While lithium-ion batteries hold broad application potential, improvements in their energy density and safety have lagged. From a sustainable development perspective, future research in lithium-ion batteries will primarily focus on improving their energy density and safety. Against this backdrop, a new class of all-solid-state secondary lithium batteries has emerged. These batteries, similar in structure to traditional lithium-ion batteries, consist of a cathode, a solid-state electrolyte, and a lithium metal anode. Compared to traditional lithium-ion batteries, all-solid-state secondary lithium batteries offer the following advantages: high safety and long service life; the potential for high energy density; and the high material and chemical stability of the solid-state electrolytes employed in all-solid-state batteries, ensuring their widespread application. Solid-state electrolytes are key components of all-solid-state lithium batteries, primarily replacing the electrolyte in traditional lithium batteries. They possess excellent ionic conductivity and are non-flammable, non-corrosive, non-volatile, and leak-proof, contributing to the high safety, energy density, power density, and long cycle life of all-solid-state lithium batteries. Therefore, the research on solid-state electrolytes is particularly critical to promoting the development of all-solid-state lithium batteries.

[0005] The solid electrolytes currently under research include oxide solid electrolytes, sulfide solid electrolytes, polymer solid electrolytes, and composite solid electrolytes. Oxide solid electrolytes have shown good application prospects due to their excellent ionic conductivity, strong air stability, and simple preparation process. In semi-solid batteries, the LATP oxide solid electrolyte with a NASICON structure also shows a wide range of applicability. In positive electrode blending or coating, it can enhance the stability, cyclability, and safety of the positive electrode material; in diaphragm coating, the electrolyte can improve the wettability of the diaphragm with the electrolyte, enhance the ionic conductivity of the diaphragm, reduce the amount of electrolyte used, and enhance the safety of the positive and negative electrodes.

[0006] However, in the above applications of semi-solid-state batteries, although LATP has a good safety improvement effect, its function is relatively single, and it has not achieved good technical effects in increasing the capacity of battery materials and reducing the internal resistance of batteries.

[0007] Therefore, how to find a more suitable LATP lithium oxide solid electrolyte to solve the above-mentioned problems of LATP has become one of the focuses of widespread attention of many front-line scientific researchers and R&D companies in the field. Summary of the Invention

The present disclosure optimizes and improves the material structure and preparation process, and modifies the LATP material to obtain a lithium oxide, achieving a good comprehensive technical effect in battery applications. The LATP lithium oxide prepared by the present disclosure is prepared by multi-step low-temperature sintering. In the first step of sintering, a first component LATP and an intermediate product or an unreacted raw material are obtained.

Thus, the three-component lithium oxide solid electrolyte prepared in the present disclosure can be used as a mixed ion conductor in positive electrode coating or blending applications, avoiding the poor electronic conductivity of traditional solid electrolytes in positive electrode applications. In addition, since the three-component lithium oxide solid electrolyte prepared in the present disclosure behaves as a positive charge as a whole, it will attract F in the electrolyte in battery applications. - , inhibiting the formation of HF and preventing the positive electrode from being corroded by HF; in addition, the synergistic effect of the third component and the first and second components can play a better protective effect in the positive electrode coating, isolating the reaction between the positive electrode material and CO2 or H2O, and avoiding the production of Li2CO3 or LiOH by-products.

[0200] Battery application and testing:

[0201] 1. Cathode coating

[0202] The dry method adopted in the present invention is to coat the positive electrode. The positive electrode active material adopted is NCM811. The added solid electrolyte coating layer accounts for 2wt‰ of the active material. The active material and the solid electrolyte are added to a ball mill and ball milled using a planetary ball mill. The ball mill speed used is 500r / min and the ball milling time is 8h. The ball-milled powder is passed through a 400-mesh sieve to obtain a positive electrode active material precursor with a coating layer. The precursor is heat-treated at 450°C in a muffle furnace and kept warm for 4h with a heating rate of 4°C / min. After the insulation is completed and cooled, the positive electrode active material coated with a solid electrolyte is obtained.

[0203] In an argon glove box with a water and oxygen content of less than 0.01 ppm, a 2032 button battery was prepared using the prepared NCM811 coated with a solid electrolyte as the positive electrode, a metal lithium sheet as the negative electrode, 1M LiPF6 dissolved in a mixed solution of ethylene carbonate (EC) / dimethyl carbonate (DMC) / diethyl carbonate (EMC) (the volume ratio is 1:1:1) as the electrolyte, and polypropylene as the separator.

[0204] 2. Positive electrode mixing

[0205] This solution uses NCM811 as the positive electrode active material. During the positive electrode homogenization process, the added material ratio of NCM811: solid electrolyte: SP: PVDF is 94.8%: 2%: 2%: 2.2%. The above positive electrode sheet is used to assemble a 2032 button battery. The assembly steps are the same as application 1.

[0206] 3. Diaphragm coating

[0207] The prepared solid electrolyte was crushed and ground and mixed into an aqueous slurry with a solid content of 20% using a disperser. A polypropylene diaphragm was selected as the base membrane and the solid electrolyte aqueous slurry was used to coat the diaphragm on both sides. The coating layer thickness was 2 μm. The coated diaphragm was assembled into a 2032 button battery. The assembly steps were the same as those in Application 1.

[0208] The prepared button battery was subjected to charge and discharge tests and cycle performance at a rate of 0.2C in the range of 3 to 4.2V, as well as charge and discharge performance at different rates. After formation, the battery was subjected to EIS impedance testing.

[0209] See FIG1 , which is an XRD phase spectrum of the third component oxygen defect coating layer prepared in an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0210] See Figure 2, which is a diagram of the first charge and discharge cycle of a battery after the LATP composite solid electrolyte prepared in Example 1 of the present disclosure is mixed with the positive electrode.

[0211] See Table 1, which shows the electrochemical performance data of button-type batteries assembled with positive electrode coatings according to the embodiments of the present disclosure and the comparative example.

[0212] Table 1

[0213] From the electrochemical performance comparison of the button-type batteries of the embodiment and the comparative example in Table 1, it can be seen that the internal resistance is reduced because the third coating layer with oxygen defects accelerates the transmission of electrons in the positive electrode, thereby reducing the internal resistance of the battery. Secondly, due to the good structural chemical stability and suppression of HF generation of the solid electrolyte prepared by this scheme, the prepared battery has good cycle stability and capacity retention during long cycles. In addition, due to the synergistic effect of the three components, it has a good effect on improving and stabilizing the battery capacity. Therefore, the solid electrolyte prepared by this scheme has excellent electrochemical performance and application diversity in battery applications.
