The invention relates to the technical field of
lithium ion batteries, in particular to an
electrolyte, a preparation method thereof, an injection method and a
lithium ion battery, the
electrolyte comprises a first
electrolyte for first injection and a second electrolyte for second injection, the first electrolyte comprises a first
solvent, a first
lithium salt and a first additive, the second electrolyte comprises a second
solvent, a second lithium salt and a second additive, the first electrolyte comprises a first
solvent, a first lithium salt and a first additive, the second electrolyte comprises a second solvent, a second lithium salt and a second additive, the
mass percentage of the second electrolyte in the electrolyte is 5-20%, the first additive comprises
dimethyl sulfide and
vinylene carbonate, and the second additive comprises
triphenyl phosphate and
vinylene carbonate. According to the electrolyte, the first additive comprises
dimethyl sulfide, and the second additive comprises
triphenyl phosphite, so that the bad problems of high-temperature gas production and negative
electrode interface black spots in the use process of a lithium-rich material lithium supplementing agent are solved.
