The invention provides a non-
Newtonian fluid quasi-
solid electrolyte, a preparation method and application, the
electrolyte is prepared from the following raw materials: a basic
electrolyte, a shear thickening
raw material, a polymeric
monomer, a cross-linking agent and a thermal initiator, and the
mass ratio of the basic electrolyte to the shear thickening
raw material is 20: (1-10). The quasi-
solid electrolyte with the non-
Newtonian fluid characteristic is used for absorbing stress caused by
lithium plating /
lithium removal of the battery, the
volume change of the battery in the charging and discharging process is relieved, mechanical hardening is rapidly generated when the battery is subjected to large-
current pulse charging or external sudden bearing, the growth of
lithium dendrites is inhibited, and internal
short circuit is prevented; a
polymer network obtained by carrying out in-situ
polymerization on a polymeric
monomer, a cross-linking agent, a thermal initiator and the like is adopted, so that battery liquid leakage or oxygenolysis is prevented,
metal lithium is deposited and dissolved more uniformly, and the growth of
metal lithium dendrites is inhibited; through the synergistic effect of the non-
Newtonian fluid and the in-situ polymerized
polymer network, the safety performance and the cycle performance of the battery can be remarkably improved.
