The invention discloses a battery and a preparation method thereof. The battery comprises a positive
electrode lithium supplementing material and an
electrolyte, the positive
electrode lithium supplementing material comprises at least one of
lithium nickelate,
lithium ferrite and
lithium oxide; the
electrolyte comprises a
silicon-based fluorophosphate compound as shown in a formula I: # imgabs0 #, wherein R1, R2 and R3 are independently H, F,
alkyl of C1-C4, fluoroalkyl of C1-C4, alkenyl of C2-C4, fluoroalkenyl of C2-C4, alkynyl of C2-C4, fluoroalkynyl of C2-C4,
cycloalkane of C5-C7, phenyl substituted by R4 or benzyl substituted by R5; r1, R2, R3, R4 and R5 are independently
alkyl groups of C1-C4, alkylene groups of C2-C4,
alkyne groups of C2-C4, fluoro
alkyl groups of C1-C4, fluoro alkylene groups of C2-C4 or fluoro
alkyne groups of C2-C4. The compound shown in the formula I is added into the
electrolyte, so that the problems of
gas expansion and lithium
precipitation caused by a positive
electrode lithium supplementing material can be solved, and the battery performance is improved.
