Description

Sodium ion battery non-aqueous electrolyte and sodium ion battery Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of electrochemical technology, and in particular to a sodium ion battery non-aqueous electrolyte and a sodium ion battery. Background Art

[0002] Rechargeable alkali metal ion batteries are considered to be the most promising and efficient electrochemical energy storage systems. In particular, lithium-ion batteries are considered to be one of the most successful scientific research in the past three decades. However, the cost of raw materials used in lithium batteries (i.e., cobalt, copper, and lithium) has increased rapidly in recent years, resulting in researchers having a stronger interest in sodium-ion batteries, which are cheaper and have more abundant and uniform raw material distribution. These two battery systems have similar working principles, with reversible shuttling of alkali ions between two electrodes through an electrolyte medium that conducts alkali metal ions. Compared with lithium batteries, sodium-ion batteries have wide resources, low costs, and small fluctuations. At the same time, their wide temperature range and high safety performance give them alternative potential. With the continuous advancement of sodium-ion battery technology, sodium-ion batteries have broad growth space in the field of energy storage.

[0069] Capacity retention rate (%) = (discharge capacity C2 - charge capacity C1) / charge capacity C1 × 100%;

[0070] Gas production test: Immerse the batteries before and after gas production in a container filled with solvent. The difference in the volume of the overflowed solvent is the volume of gas produced.

[0071] (1) The test results of Examples 1-12 and Comparative Examples 8-15 are shown in Table 2.

[0072] Table 2

[0073] From the test results in Table 2, it can be seen that the sodium ion battery of the present application uses a non-aqueous electrolyte with a molecular formula of C x H y O 3z P z R m The phosphorus-containing compound additive, the gas production inhibition additive, the cyclic ester solvent and the chain ester solvent are used in combination, and by further limiting the content a of the phosphorus-containing compound additive in the non-aqueous electrolyte, the content b of the gas production inhibition additive in the non-aqueous electrolyte, and the mass ratio c of the cyclic ester solvent and the chain ester solvent in the non-aqueous electrolyte to meet 0.7≤a / c+b≤13, 0.2≤a≤2, 0.3≤b≤3, and 0.1≤c≤1, gas production can be effectively inhibited and the rate performance and cycle performance of the sodium ion battery can be improved.

[0074] It can be seen from the test results of Examples 1-12 that when the content a of the phosphorus-containing compound additive in the non-aqueous electrolyte of the sodium ion battery, the content b of the gas production inhibitory additive, and the mass ratio c of the cyclic ester solvent and the chain ester solvent further satisfy 1.5≤a / c+b≤7, 0.5≤a≤1.5, 0.5≤b≤2.5, and 0.11≤c≤0.67, the rate performance and cycle performance of the sodium ion battery are improved, and the gas production inhibition effect is better.

[0075] The test results of Example 1 and Comparative Examples 8-15 demonstrate that when any of the following parameters (a)—the phosphorus-containing compound additive content, b)—in the non-aqueous electrolyte, or the mass ratio (c) of the cyclic ester solvent to the chain ester solvent—do not meet the specified ranges, or when the ratio (a / c+b) is too large or too small—the sodium-ion battery cannot achieve good rate and cycle performance. This demonstrates the strong correlation between the phosphorus-containing compound additive content, b) and the mass ratio (c) of the cyclic ester solvent to the chain ester solvent in improving sodium-ion battery performance.

[0076] (2) The test results of Example 1, Examples 13-15, and Comparative Example 7 are shown in Table 3.

[0077] Table 3

[0078] From the test results of Example 1 and Examples 13-15 in Table 3, it can be seen that the phosphorus-containing compound additives selected in this application only need to meet the "molecular formula is C x H y O 3z P z R m , wherein: 1≤z≤4, 4<x+y<40, 3<(x+y) / z<32, m≥0, R is selected from any one or more elements of Si, F, and N". At the same time, the content a of the phosphorus-containing compound additive, the content b of the gas generation inhibiting additive, and the mass ratio c of the cyclic ester solvent to the chain ester solvent meet the corresponding requirements, all of which can achieve the improvement of the rate performance and cycle performance of the sodium ion battery and inhibit gas generation.

[0079] From the test results of Example 1, Examples 13-15 and Comparative Example 7, it can be seen that the conventional phosphorus-containing compound additive cannot meet the requirement of "molecular formula C x H y O 3z P z R m, wherein: 1≤z≤4, 4<x+y<40, 3<(x+y) / z<32, m≥0, and R is selected from any one or more elements of Si, F, and N". When the conditions are met, the effect of improving the performance of the sodium ion battery is not good, which illustrates the specificity of the selection of the phosphorus-containing compound additive in this application.

[0080] (3) The test results of Example 1 and Examples 16-18 are shown in Table 4.

[0081] Table 4

[0082] The test results of Example 1 and Examples 16-18 in Table 4 show that the sodium-ion batteries of the present application, when using different gassing inhibitor additives, can improve the rate performance and cycle performance of the sodium-ion batteries and suppress gassing when the phosphorus-containing compound additive content a, the gassing inhibitor additive content b, and the mass ratio c of the cyclic ester solvent to the chain ester solvent meet the corresponding requirements. This shows that the sodium-ion batteries of the present application are universally compatible with different gassing inhibitor additives.

[0083] (4) The test results of Example 1 and Examples 19-21 are shown in Table 5.

[0084] Table 5

[0085] The test results of Example 1 and Examples 19-21 in Table 5 show that the sodium-ion batteries of the present application, using different positive electrode active materials, can achieve improved rate performance and cycle performance, while suppressing gas production, when the content a of the phosphorus-containing compound additive in the non-aqueous electrolyte, the content b of the gas production suppressing additive, and the mass ratio c of the cyclic ester solvent to the chain ester solvent meet the corresponding requirements. This demonstrates that the sodium-ion batteries of the present application are universally applicable to different positive electrode active materials.

[0086] (5) The test results of Example 1, Examples 22-24 and Comparative Examples 1-6 are shown in Table 6.

[0087] Table 6

[0088] From the test results of Example 1 and Examples 22-24 in Table 6, it can be seen that the sodium ion battery of the present application, the addition of additives such as vinyl sulfate (DTD), 1,3-propane sultone (PS), and succinonitrile (SN) to the non-aqueous electrolyte can further optimize the rate performance and cycle performance of the sodium ion battery, indicating that the molecular formula is C x H y O 3z P z R m There is a complementary effect between the phosphorus-containing compound additive and other additives.

[0089] It can be seen from the test results of Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1-4 that when the non-aqueous electrolyte does not contain additives or contains only conventional additives, the rate performance, cycle performance and gas production inhibition effect of the sodium ion battery are not good; it can be seen from the test results of Example 1 and Comparative Examples 5-6 that when the additive does not contain a gas production inhibition additive, only a phosphorus-containing compound additive and a conventional additive DTD, and when the additive does not contain a phosphorus-containing compound additive, only a gas production inhibition additive and a conventional additive DTD, the rate performance, cycle performance and gas production inhibition performance of the sodium ion battery are not good; it shows that the sodium ion battery under the system of the present application can significantly improve the cycle performance and rate performance of the sodium ion battery and inhibit battery gas production through the interaction between specific additives in the non-aqueous electrolyte.

[0090] The present application is further described above with the help of specific embodiments, but it should be understood that the specific description here should not be construed as limiting the essence and scope of the present application. Various modifications made to the above embodiments by ordinary technicians in this field after reading this specification are all within the scope of protection of this application.
