Technical Field

The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium ion batteries, and particularly relates to electrolyte of a non-aqueous lithium ion battery, a preparation method of the electrolyte and the lithium ion battery comprising the electrolyte.

Background

The development of high energy density, long cycle life and low cost lithium ion batteries has important practical value. Lithium ion batteries using graphite negative electrode materials hold a significant market position in the current consumer electronics and electric automobile fields. With the continuous penetration of these applications and the escalation of social demands, higher demands are made on various aspects of lithium ion batteries, especially on energy density.

It is proposed to use a silicon-based negative electrode material with a higher theoretical specific capacity to replace the traditional graphite negative electrode material (the theoretical capacity of silicon is 3579mAh/g and the theoretical capacity of graphite is 372mAh/g at normal temperature), but the silicon-based negative electrode material has lower conductivity and faces serious volume expansion problems. The volume expansion of the silicon-based negative electrode material causes poor contact between a negative active material and a current collector on one hand, and also causes the breakage and regrowth of a Solid Electrolyte Interface (SEI) on the surface of a negative electrode in the alloying expansion process on the other hand, so that the coulomb efficiency is reduced, and the cycle performance of the silicon-based negative electrode battery is seriously reduced.

For lithium ion batteries with silicon cathodes, most of the electrolyte main solvents used are carbonate electrolytes from graphite-based cathodes, for example, SEI formed by electrolytes mainly containing Ethylene Carbonate (EC) cannot adapt to volume expansion of silicon-based cathodes, and performance rapidly declines. In the prior art, fluorine-containing substances such as fluoroethylene carbonate and the like are used as additives to be added into a carbonate electrolyte, so that the compatibility of the traditional ester electrolyte to a silicon cathode can be improved to a certain extent, and the practical requirement can not be met.

There is a need in the art to develop an electrolyte solution that can accommodate and alleviate the above-mentioned problems of the silicon negative electrode to improve the electrical properties of the silicon negative electrode.

The component additions for the examples and comparative examples are shown in tables 1-4.

In Table 1, the horizontal line indicates that the corresponding components were not added to the corresponding examples (examples and comparative examples).

In Table 2, the horizontal line indicates that the corresponding components were not added to the corresponding examples (examples and comparative examples).

In Table 3, the horizontal line indicates that the corresponding components were not added to the corresponding examples (examples and comparative examples).

The test results are shown in table 5:

in table 5, the horizontal line indicates a lithium ion battery that could not be assembled to enable electrical measurements. As indicated by the asterisk, in the carbon-mixed electrode material (application example 2), phosphate co-intercalation occurred, directly leading to failure of the graphite negative electrode.

As can be seen from examples 1 to 3 and comparative examples 1 to 3, the specific lactone-type first solvent and the chain-like second solvent are matched with the fluorine-containing additive and the lithium salt, so that higher reversible capacity (SiO) can be obtained_xLi battery reversible capacity 1600mAh g^-1Above, 100 cycles capacity remaining above 70%) and lower volume expansion (SiO)_xThe horizontal volume expansion rate of the electrode plate of the | Li battery is lower than 140 percent), and the electrode plate can replace propylene carbonate with the solvation capacity of less than 1.8 to Li, and the reversible capacity is only 1500 mAh.g^-1About, the residual 67% of the capacity of 100 coils of the silicon negative electrode material lithium battery is far lower than that of the first solvent selected lactone compounds, and the horizontal volume expansion rate of 195% of the pole piece is far higher than that of the first solvent selected lactone compounds. In the case of the acid anhydride-based compound, although the structure is similar to that of the lactone-based compound, the acid anhydride-based compound has a high melting point, is solid at normal temperature, and is extremely unstable, resulting in excessively high battery resistance in an electrolyte and disconnection of the battery (comparative examples 2 and 3 cannot be tested for electrical properties).

As can be seen from examples 1, 4, 5 and 6, the mixing ratio of the first solvent to the second solvent is 7:3 to 1:9, and a high reversible capacity (SiO)_x| Li battery 1610mAh · g^-1Above, more than 75% of the 100-turn volume remains), and the volume ratio of the first solvent to the second solvent is less than 1:9, the reversible volume and the cycle remaining volume are slightly reduced, which is probably caused by limited dissolution of small molecular organic matters and the like in the SEI film after the first solvent amount is reduced, and the contents of the small molecular organic matters and inorganic impurities in the SEI film are too high.

It can be seen from examples 7-10 and comparative example 6 that the addition of the second solvent is very important, and the electrolyte provided by the application retains wettability to the diaphragm due to the existence of the second solvent, so that the impedance is reduced, and the electrical properties are improved. Comparative example 6 electrical properties could not be measured because the resistance was too high and the cell was open.

As can be seen from examples 1, 11, 12 and comparative examples, the addition of the fluorine-containing additive increased SiO_xThe 100-turn capacity of the Li battery remains, probably because the fluorine-containing additive is able to strip fluorine out to form lithium fluoride,the remaining groups more easily form a polymer filled SEI film, improving the mechanical properties of the SEI film.

From example 1 and example 16, it can be seen that LiPF is the choice of lithium salt₆High ionic conductivity, more lithium fluoride decomposition product, more effective filling of the vacancies eluted by the first solvent, and LiCF₃SO₃The decomposed small-molecule organic matter is large in amount, and the effective filling of the vacancy eluted by the first solvent is less.

As can be seen from examples 19 to 21, SiO can be further improved by selecting a mixture of beta-propiolactone and gamma-valerolactone at a ratio of 1:0.7 to 1.0 as a first solvent and adding a carbonate ester containing a small amount of ether solvent as a solvent_xThe reversible capacity and 100-cycle capacity of the Li battery remain, reducing the volume expansion.

In order to visually recognize the effect of the electrolyte provided in the present application on the SEI film, the electrolyte of example 1 was assembled into SiO_xThe serial representation of the SEI film formed on the surface of the silicon cathode is carried out in the | Li battery, and FIG. 1 shows that the electrolyte of example 1 is assembled into SiO_xHRTEM of SEI film formed by | Li battery; as can be seen from fig. 1, the thickness is less than 10nm and is very uniform, and a small amount of crystal lattice exists inside, which is LiF crystal lattice. FIG. 2 shows the assembly of the electrolyte of comparative example 5 into SiO_xHRTEM of SEI film formed by | Li battery; the thickness was about 30nm and was very uneven with many impurities. FIG. 3 shows the assembly of the electrolyte of example 1 into SiO_x(ii) F1 s spectra of SEI film formed by the Li cell, FIG. 4 the electrolyte of example 1 was assembled into SiO_x| l | C1 s spectrum of SEI film formed by Li battery. It can be seen from FIG. 3 that a large amount of lithium fluoride (binding energy of. about.685 eV) is present in the SEI component, and from FIG. 4 that a polyester (binding energy of. about.290 eV) is present in the SEI component. FIG. 5 is an SiO solid assembled in example 1_x| Li battery long cycle data. As can be seen from FIG. 5, SiO obtained in example 1_xThe reversible capacity of the | Li battery is 1632mAh · g^-1The 100-turn capacity residue is 88%.

Compared with a silicon oxide negative electrode material which is not mixed with graphite, the silicon oxide mixed with graphite is used as the negative electrode material, so that the cycle stability of the lithium battery can be improved, and the volume expansion rate can be reduced.

Further, SiO was assembled according to application example 1 by selecting application example 1 and comparative example 4_xAnd | Li batteries, and performing charge and discharge tests at low temperature. Specifically, the above series of batteries were discharged to 0.005V at a rate of 0.05C and then to 1.5V at room temperature under a constant current condition, and the above process was cycled three times, followed by a formal charge and discharge experiment at 0.2C, at a test temperature of-20 ℃, to measure a discharge capacity, and the above was performed.

The test results show that the SiO of example 1 is present at-20 deg.C_xThe reversible capacity of the | Li battery is 820mAh g^-1100-circle capacity remaining 82%, while comparative example 4 has a reversible capacity of 82mAh g^-1And 25% of capacity of 100 circles is remained. The electrolyte of the non-aqueous lithium ion battery provided by the application still has a good capacity retention rate at low temperature.
