The invention belongs to the technical field of
lithium ion batteries, and particularly discloses an
electrolyte for a high-rate
lithium battery, the
electrolyte is compounded by a
solvent, a mixed
lithium salt and an additive according to the
mass percent of (80%-85%): (10%-15%): (5%-8%), the mixed lithium salt contains at least two lithium salts, the additive contains
fluorinated ether, and the
fluorinated ether contains at least one of the lithium salts. And the content of the
fluorinated ether is 0.3%-0.5% of the total weight of the
electrolyte. When the electrolyte is applied to the high-rate
lithium battery, the charging and discharging efficiency of the high-rate
lithium battery can be improved; the infiltration time of the electrolyte in the high-rate
lithium battery is shortened, and the production efficiency of the high-rate lithium battery and the
utilization rate of a production site are improved; in the formation (activation) process of the high-rate lithium battery, the formation current can be improved, the formation time can be shortened, the lithium battery
manufacturing efficiency and the equipment
utilization rate can be improved, and the production cost can be reduced; the invention also provides a preparation method of the electrolyte for the high-rate lithium battery, and the preparation method is simple and suitable for large-scale production and application.
