AI Technical Summary
Existing cylindrical batteries with high electrolyte retention cannot expand during charge-discharge cycles due to the constraint of the casing, resulting in reduced porosity of the positive and negative electrodes and separator. The electrolyte concentrates on both sides of the core, leading to lithium plating and affecting the battery's cycle capacity retention and lifespan.

The electrolyte retention capacity range is 0.85×(V0/1000)×ρ≤m≤0.95×(V0/1000)×ρ. The pore volume ratio of the negative electrode to the separator is 3.2 to 7.4, the pore volume ratio of the positive electrode to the negative electrode is 1.2 to 4.3, the porosity is 15% to 60%, and the electrolyte density is 1.1 g/cm3 to 1.5 g/cm3.

Description
A secondary battery and electrical device
[0001] This application claims priority to Chinese Patent Application No. 202411540332.9, filed on October 30, 2024, entitled "A Secondary Battery and Electrical Device", the entire contents of which are incorporated herein by reference. Technical Field
[0002] This disclosure relates to the field of secondary battery manufacturing technology, and in particular to a secondary battery and electrical equipment. Background Technology
[0003] Cylindrical batteries are one of the development trends of core components for new energy electric vehicles, and have received widespread attention from the industry due to their advantages such as high energy density, high safety performance, and high consistency.
[0004] Electrolyte is a crucial component of cylindrical batteries, significantly impacting not only their initial performance but also their long-term stability and lifespan. Currently, to ensure cylindrical batteries maintain good performance during extended use, the industry widely employs high electrolyte retention designs.
[0005] However, cylindrical battery casings have high strength, and the expansion force of the core during charge-discharge cycles is insufficient to cause significant casing expansion. Due to the constraint of the casing, cylindrical batteries cannot expand outwards during charge-discharge cycles, but instead expand inwards. This reduces the porosity of the positive and negative electrodes and the separator, decreasing the amount of electrolyte that can be stored in these areas. With a high electrolyte retention, a large amount of electrolyte is squeezed out of the porosity of the positive and negative electrodes and the separator during charge-discharge cycles and concentrates on both sides of the core. This results in a higher electrolyte concentration on the sides of the core, making lithium plating more likely. Consequently, the battery's cycle capacity retention rate decreases rapidly, severely impacting the battery's cycle life. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The technical problem to be solved by this disclosure is to provide a secondary battery and an electrical device to solve the problem of reduced cycle capacity retention and cycle life of existing high liquid-holding cylindrical batteries due to lithium plating on both sides of the core.
[0007] To solve the above problems, this disclosure provides the following technical solution: This disclosure proposes a secondary battery, comprising a core and an electrolyte, wherein the core comprises a positive electrode, a separator, and a negative electrode stacked sequentially; the secondary battery, at 0% SOC, satisfies: 0.85×(V0 / 1000)×ρ≤m≤0.95×(V0 / 1000)×ρ, where mg represents the electrolyte retention capacity of the secondary battery; V0mm 3This represents the total volume of pores in the core; the total volume of pores in the core is the sum of the pore volume of the diaphragm, the pore volume of the positive electrode sheet, and the pore volume of the negative electrode sheet; ρg / cm 3 This indicates the density of the electrolyte.
[0008] Furthermore, in the secondary battery, the ratio between the pore volume of the negative electrode sheet and the pore volume of the separator is 3.2 to 7.4.
[0009] Furthermore, in the secondary battery, the ratio between the pore volume of the negative electrode and the pore volume of the positive electrode is 1.2 to 4.3.
[0010] Furthermore, in the secondary battery, the porosity of the separator is 30% to 60%.
[0011] Furthermore, in the secondary battery, the porosity of the positive electrode sheet is 15% to 50%.
[0012] Furthermore, in the secondary battery, the positive electrode sheet includes a positive current collector, and a first positive electrode film layer and a second positive electrode film layer disposed on two opposite surfaces of the positive current collector; wherein, the porosity of the first positive electrode film layer is 15% to 50%, and the porosity of the second positive electrode film layer is 15% to 50%.
[0013] Furthermore, in the secondary battery, the absolute value of the difference between the porosity of the first positive electrode film layer and the porosity of the second positive electrode film layer is 0 to 5%.
[0014] Furthermore, in the secondary battery, the porosity of the negative electrode sheet is 30% to 60%.
[0015] Furthermore, in the secondary battery, the negative electrode sheet includes a negative current collector, and a first negative electrode film layer and a second negative electrode film layer disposed on two opposite surfaces of the negative current collector; wherein, the porosity of the first negative electrode film layer is 30% to 60%, and the porosity of the second negative electrode film layer is 30% to 60%.
[0016] Furthermore, in the secondary battery, the absolute value of the difference between the porosity of the first negative electrode film layer and the porosity of the second negative electrode film layer is 0 to 5%.
[0017] Furthermore, in the aforementioned secondary battery, the density of the electrolyte is 1.1 g / cm³. 3 ~1.5g / cm 3 .
[0018] Furthermore, the secondary battery includes a casing, which has a columnar structure.
[0019] This disclosure also proposes an electrical device, which includes the aforementioned secondary battery, serving as the power supply for the electrical device.
[0020] Compared with the prior art, the embodiments of this disclosure have the following advantages: In the embodiments of this disclosure, the electrolyte retention of the secondary battery at 0% SOC is less than the electrolyte that can be contained by the sum of the pore volumes of the separator, the positive electrode, and the negative electrode in the core. The total electrolyte retention of the secondary battery is determined to be the mass of electrolyte that can be contained by 0.85 to 0.95 times the sum of the pore volumes of the separator, the positive electrode, and the negative electrode in the core. While meeting the electrolyte replenishment requirements during the charge-discharge cycle and storage of the secondary battery, during the charge-discharge cycle, when the secondary battery expands inward due to the constraint of the casing, only a small amount of electrolyte or even no electrolyte is squeezed out to the sides of the core. This makes the electrolyte concentration at the sides of the core basically the same as the electrolyte concentration at other locations of the secondary battery, and the polarization is also basically the same. This reduces the risk of lithium plating at the sides of the core, improves the capacity retention rate of the secondary battery during cycles, and thus improves the cycle life and storage performance of the secondary battery.

Detailed Implementation
[0028] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this disclosure more apparent and understandable, the disclosure will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0029] The applicant of this disclosure discovered that, due to the high strength of the cylindrical secondary battery casing and the insufficient expansion force of the core during charge-discharge cycles to cause significant expansion of the casing, and the limited gas production during formation or normal use of the cylindrical secondary battery, the casing does not expand significantly. Therefore, during charge-discharge cycles, the cylindrical secondary battery cannot expand outward due to the constraint of the casing, but expands inward, which reduces the porosity of the positive electrode, the negative electrode, and the separator, and reduces the amount of electrolyte that can be stored in the positive electrode, the negative electrode, and the separator. When the electrolyte retention in a cylindrical secondary battery is high, a large amount of electrolyte is squeezed out from the positive electrode, negative electrode, and separator during charge-discharge cycles and concentrates on both sides of the core. This results in a higher electrolyte concentration on the sides of the core compared to other parts of the cylindrical secondary battery, increasing polarization and making lithium plating more likely. This leads to a rapid decline in the battery's cycle capacity retention, especially under high-rate fast charging conditions, where lithium plating occurs rapidly on the sides of the core, causing a sharp drop in capacity retention and severely impacting the cycle life of the cylindrical secondary battery. Conversely, when the electrolyte retention in a cylindrical secondary battery is low, the inability to replenish the electrolyte in a timely and effective manner during charge-discharge cycles and storage leads to lithium plating, decreased capacity retention, and lower storage capacity, affecting the cycle life and storage performance of the cylindrical secondary battery.
[0030] To address the aforementioned problems, this disclosure provides a secondary battery. Referring to Figure 1, the secondary battery includes a core 10 and an electrolyte. The core 10 includes a positive electrode 102, a separator 100, and a negative electrode 101 stacked sequentially. The secondary battery satisfies the following condition at 0% SOC (State of Charge): 0.85×(V0 / 1000)×ρ≤m≤0.95×(V0 / 1000)×ρ (1)
[0031] Where mg represents the electrolyte level of the secondary battery; V0mm 3 This represents the total volume of pores in the core 10; the total volume of pores in the core 10 is the sum of the pore volume of the diaphragm 100, the pore volume of the positive electrode 102, and the pore volume of the negative electrode 101; ρg / cm 3 This indicates the density of the electrolyte.
[0032] In this embodiment of the disclosure, the secondary battery is a cylindrical secondary battery.
[0033] The total volume of pores in the core 10 refers to the sum of the pore volumes of the diaphragm 100, the positive electrode 102, and the negative electrode 101 in the core 10; specifically, when the pore volume of the diaphragm 100 is V1, the pore volume of the positive electrode 102 is V2, and the pore volume of the negative electrode 101 is V3: V0=V1+V2+V3 (2)
[0034] When the electrolyte is injected into the core 10, the electrolyte will fill the pores of the separator 100, the pores of the positive electrode 102 and the pores of the negative electrode 101, so as to achieve timely replenishment of electrolyte during the charging and discharging process of the secondary battery and ensure the performance and storage performance of the secondary battery.
[0035] It should be noted that the positive electrode 102 includes a positive current collector and a positive electrode film layer disposed on the positive current collector. The pore volume of the positive electrode 102 refers to the volume of the pores in the positive electrode film layer disposed on the positive current collector. The negative electrode 101 includes a negative current collector and a negative electrode film layer disposed on the negative current collector. The pore volume of the negative electrode 101 refers to the volume of the pores in the negative electrode film layer disposed on the negative current collector.
[0036] It is understood that (V0 / 1000)×ρ in Formula 1 represents the mass of electrolyte contained in the total volume of the pores in the core 10. In this embodiment, the electrolyte retention capacity of the secondary battery is set within this range. While meeting the electrolyte replenishment requirements during the charge-discharge cycle and storage of the secondary battery, excessive electrolyte is not injected into the core 10. When the secondary battery expands inward during the charge-discharge cycle, only a small amount of electrolyte, or even no electrolyte, is squeezed out to the sides of the core 10. This makes the electrolyte concentration at the sides of the core 10 basically the same as the electrolyte concentration at other locations of the secondary battery, and the polarization is also basically the same. This reduces the risk of lithium plating at the sides of the core 10, improves the capacity retention rate of the secondary battery during cycles, and thus improves the cycle life and storage performance of the secondary battery.
[0037] In some embodiments, the liquid retention capacity m of the secondary battery can be a value within the range of one or any two of the following: 0.85×(V0 / 1000)×ρ, 0.87×(V0 / 1000)×ρ, 0.89×(V0 / 1000)×ρ, 0.91×(V0 / 1000)×ρ, 0.93×(V0 / 1000)×ρ, and 0.95×(V0 / 1000)×ρ.
[0038] In this embodiment, the electrolyte comprises an organic solvent, a lithium electrolyte salt, and additives, which are obtained by mixing and thoroughly stirring the above substances in a certain proportion under certain conditions. It is understood that electrolytes of different densities can be prepared by adjusting the proportions and types of the organic solvent, lithium electrolyte salt, and additives.
[0039] After the electrolyte is injected into the secondary battery, it is allowed to stand and soak before the first charge and discharge. The secondary battery is then sealed and weighed to determine the electrolyte retention.
[0040] Referring to Figure 2, the secondary battery provided in this embodiment includes a core 10, a negative current collector 201, a negative cover plate 202, a casing 203, a positive current collector 204, an insulating pad 205, and a positive terminal post 206.
[0041] The core 10 includes a positive electrode 102, a separator 100 and a negative electrode 101 stacked in sequence; both sides of the positive electrode 102 and the negative electrode 101 have empty foil as tabs. The positive electrode 102, the separator 100 and the negative electrode 101 are stacked in sequence and wound to form the core 10.
[0042] Shell 203 is a cylindrical shell.
[0043] Object 203 is a cylindrical shell.
[0044] The tab of the negative electrode 101 is connected to the negative current collector 201, the negative current collector 201 is connected to the cover plate 202, and the cover plate 202 is connected to the housing 203, thereby realizing the electrical connection of the negative electrode 101.
[0045] The tab of the positive electrode 102 is connected to the positive current collector 204, and the positive current collector 204 is connected to the positive electrode post 206, so as to realize the electrical connection of the positive electrode 102; wherein, the positive current collector 204 is insulated from the housing 203 by an insulating gasket 205, and the positive electrode post 206 is also insulated from the housing 203 by an insulating gasket 205.
[0046] Optionally, in some embodiments, the ratio between the pore volume of the negative electrode 101 and the pore volume of the separator 100 is 3.2 to 7.4.
[0047] Specifically:
[0048] In this embodiment of the present disclosure, the volume of the pores in the negative electrode film layer disposed on the negative electrode current collector in the negative electrode sheet 101 and the volume of the pores in the separator 100 can be adjusted so that the ratio between the pore volume of the negative electrode sheet 101 and the pore volume of the separator 100 satisfies 3.2 to 7.4.
[0049] The pore volume of the negative electrode sheet 101 can be adjusted by modifying the ratio between the negative electrode active material and the conductive agent in the negative electrode film layer, the content of the binder in the negative electrode film layer, the coating speed, coating thickness, coating uniformity, drying temperature and drying time of the negative electrode film layer, and compaction pressure.
[0050] Accordingly, the pore volume of the diaphragm 100 can be adjusted by modifying its constituent materials, stretching process, film-forming process, heat treatment process, and chemical treatment process.
[0051] In this embodiment, the ratio between the pore volume of the negative electrode 101 and the pore volume of the separator 100 is set to 3.2 to 7.4. This ensures that the negative electrode 101 has good electrolyte wetting effect, allowing for smoother movement of the lithium-ion battery between the separator and the negative electrode, thus improving the performance of the secondary battery. In some embodiments, the ratio between the pore volume of the negative electrode 101 and the pore volume of the separator 100 can be one or any two of the following values: 3.2, 3.4, 3.6, 3.8, 4.0, 4.2, 4.4, 4.6, 4.8, 5.0, 5.2, 5.4, 5.6, 5.8, 6.0, 6.2, 6.4, 6.6, 6.8, 7.0, 7.2, and 7.4.
[0052] Optionally, in some embodiments, the ratio between the pore volume of the negative electrode 101 and the pore volume of the positive electrode 102 is 1.2 to 4.3.
[0053] Specifically:
[0054] In this embodiment of the present disclosure, the volume of the pores in the negative electrode film layer disposed on the negative electrode current collector in the negative electrode 101 and the volume of the pores in the positive electrode film layer disposed on the positive electrode current collector in the positive electrode 102 can be adjusted so that the ratio between the pore volume of the negative electrode 101 and the pore volume of the positive electrode 102 satisfies 1.2 to 4.3.
[0055] The pore volume of the negative electrode sheet 101 can be adjusted by modifying the ratio between the negative electrode active material and the conductive agent in the negative electrode film layer, the content of the binder in the negative electrode film layer, the coating speed, coating thickness, coating uniformity, drying temperature and drying time of the negative electrode film layer, and compaction pressure.
[0056] Accordingly, the pore volume of the positive electrode sheet 102 can be adjusted by adjusting the ratio between the positive electrode active material and the conductive agent and binder in the positive electrode film layer, the coating speed, coating thickness, coating uniformity of the positive electrode film layer, the drying temperature and drying time of the positive electrode film layer, and the compaction pressure.
[0057] In this embodiment, the ratio of the pore volume of the negative electrode 101 to the pore volume of the positive electrode 102 is set to 1.2 to 4.3. This ensures that the negative electrode 101 has good electrolyte wetting effect and also ensures that the electric field distribution is uniform during the insertion / extraction process, thereby improving the performance of the secondary battery. In some embodiments, the ratio of the pore volume of the negative electrode 101 to the pore volume of the positive electrode 102 can be one or any two of the following: 1.2, 1.4, 1.6, 1.8, 2.0, 2.2, 2.4, 2.6, 2.8, 3.0, 3.2, 3.4, 3.6, 3.8, 4.0, and 4.3.
[0058] Optionally, in some embodiments, the porosity of the diaphragm 100 is 30% to 60%; exemplaryly, the porosity of the diaphragm 100 can be a range of one or any two of 30%, 32%, 34%, 36%, 38%, 40%, 42%, 44%, 46%, 48%, 50%, 52%, 54%, 56%, 58%, and 60%.
[0059] The porosity of the diaphragm 100 refers to the ratio between the pore volume of the diaphragm 100 and the volume of the diaphragm 100.
[0060] Specifically, referring to Figure 3, when the length of the diaphragm 100 is L0, the width is W0, and the thickness is H0, the porosity S of the diaphragm 100 is:
[0061] Where S represents the porosity of membrane 100.
[0062] It is understandable that the porosity of the separator 100 directly affects its ability to absorb electrolyte. An appropriate porosity can ensure that the electrolyte fully wets the separator 100, improve the ion conduction efficiency, reduce the internal resistance of the secondary battery, and facilitate the rapid transport of ions in the secondary battery. At the same time, the porosity of the separator 100 is also closely related to its mechanical strength. In this embodiment, the porosity of the separator 100 is set to a range of 30% to 60%, which improves the separator's ability to absorb electrolyte while ensuring its mechanical strength.
[0063] Optionally, in some embodiments, the porosity of the positive electrode 102 is 15% to 50%; exemplaryly, the porosity of the positive electrode 102 can be a range of one or any two of 15%, 17%, 19%, 21%, 23%, 25%, 27%, 29%, 31%, 33%, 35%, 37%, 39%, 41%, 43%, 45%, 47%, and 50%.
[0064] In this embodiment, the positive electrode 102 includes a positive current collector and a positive electrode film layer disposed on the positive current collector. The positive current collector is generally an aluminum foil or a composite current collector. It is understood that, in order to ensure the conductivity of the current collector, the density of the aluminum foil and the density of the conductive layer in the composite current collector are generally high. In this embodiment, it is assumed that the positive current collector does not have the ability to absorb electrolyte, and the porosity of the positive electrode film layer in the positive electrode 102 can be determined as the porosity of the positive electrode 102.
[0065] It is understood that the porosity of the positive electrode 102 is related to the energy density and cycle life of the secondary battery. A higher porosity of the positive electrode 102 can provide more active sites, which is beneficial to the wetting of the electrolyte and the transport of ions, thereby improving the energy density and cycle life of the secondary battery. In this embodiment, the porosity of the positive electrode 102 is determined to be 15% to 50%. While ensuring the stability and reliability of the secondary battery, it can also improve the wetting effect of the electrolyte, thereby improving the energy density and cycle life of the secondary battery.
[0066] Optionally, referring to FIG4, the positive electrode 102 includes a positive current collector 1021, and a first positive electrode film layer 1022 and a second positive electrode film layer 1023 disposed on two opposite surfaces of the positive current collector 1021; wherein, the porosity of the first positive electrode film layer 1022 is 15% to 50%, and the porosity of the second positive electrode film layer 1023 is 15% to 50%.

Then, the pore volume of the positive electrode sheet V2 = V21 +V 22 =X a ×L 11 ×W 11 ×H 11 +X b ×L 12 ×W 12 ×H 12 .
[0071] Optionally, in some embodiments, the absolute value of the difference between the porosity of the first positive electrode film layer 1022 and the porosity of the second positive electrode film layer 1023 is 0 to 5%, so that both the first positive electrode film layer 1022 and the second positive electrode film layer 1023 achieve the best electrolyte wetting effect, thereby improving the performance of the secondary battery; for example, the absolute value of the difference between the porosity of the first positive electrode film layer 1022 and the porosity of the second positive electrode film layer 1023 can be a range of one or any two of 0, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, and 5%.
[0072] Specifically, the absolute value of the difference between the porosity of the first positive electrode film layer 1022 and the porosity of the second positive electrode film layer 1023 can be expressed as: |X a -X b |≤5% (8)
[0073] Among them, |X a -X b | represents the absolute value of the difference between the porosity of the first positive electrode film layer 1022 and the porosity of the second positive electrode film layer 1023. In this embodiment, the difference between the porosity of the first positive electrode film layer 1022 and the porosity of the second positive electrode film layer 1023 is within the above range, indicating that the porosity of the first positive electrode film layer 1022 and the porosity of the second positive electrode film layer 1023 are highly consistent. This results in the first positive electrode film layer 1022 and the second positive electrode film layer 1023 having similar resistivity and ion transport rate, avoiding significant differences in ion insertion / extraction rates and electrochemical reactions on both sides of the positive electrode during cycling, and improving the cycle performance of the battery.

When the discharge capacity of the Nth cycle divided by the discharge capacity of the first cycle is less than 80%, the number of cycles is recorded as N.
[0182] (2) Secondary battery storage test method: Step 1. First, place the battery in an environment of 25±3℃ for 30 minutes, then charge it at a constant current rate of 1 / 3C to the upper limit cutoff voltage; then switch to constant voltage to 0.02C; discharge it at a constant current rate of 1 / 3C to the lower limit cutoff voltage, and record the discharged capacity as the initial capacity; finally, charge it at a constant current rate of 1 / 3C to the upper limit cutoff voltage, then switch to constant voltage to 0.02C. Step 2. Place the battery in an environment of 60±3℃ for 300 days. Step 3. Place the battery in an environment of 25±3℃ for 30 minutes, then discharge it at a constant current rate of 1 / 3C to the lower limit cutoff voltage, and record the discharged capacity as the residual capacity. Divide the residual capacity by the initial capacity to record the residual capacity retention rate. Step 4. Charge the battery at a constant current rate of 1 / 3C to the upper limit cutoff voltage, then switch to constant voltage to 0.02C; discharge it at a constant current rate of 1 / 3C to the lower limit cutoff voltage, and record the discharged capacity as the recovered capacity.

[0183] The lower and upper cutoff voltages mentioned above are 2.8V and 4.0V, respectively. The secondary batteries fabricated in each embodiment and comparative example were subjected to the above tests, and the test data are shown in Table 2.
[0184] Table 2
[0185] According to the test data above, compared with Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2, Examples 1 to 21 provided in this disclosure control the liquid retention of the secondary battery between 0.85×(V0 / 1000)×ρ and 0.95×(V0 / 1000)×ρ, while maintaining the number of charge-discharge cycles of the secondary battery above 1000, and can also increase the residual storage capacity retention rate to above 40% and the storage recovery capacity retention rate to above 75%. Therefore, the total electrolyte capacity of the secondary battery is determined to be 0.85 to 0.95 times the mass of electrolyte that can be contained by the sum of the pore volumes of the separator, the positive electrode, and the negative electrode in the core. This satisfies the electrolyte replenishment requirements during the charge-discharge cycle and storage of the secondary battery. During the charge-discharge cycle, when the secondary battery expands inward due to the constraint of the casing, only a small amount of electrolyte, or even no electrolyte, is squeezed out to the sides of the core. This makes the electrolyte concentration at the sides of the core basically the same as the electrolyte concentration at other locations in the secondary battery, and the polarization is also basically the same. This reduces the risk of lithium plating at the sides of the core and improves the cycle life, cycle capacity retention, and storage performance of the secondary battery.
[0186] The above provides a detailed description of a secondary battery and electrical device provided by this disclosure. Specific examples have been used to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of this disclosure. The description of the above embodiments is only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core ideas of this disclosure. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope based on the ideas of this disclosure. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this disclosure.
