Technical field
The present invention relates to the manufacturing technology field of lithium ion battery electrolyte salt, specifically the preparation method of a kind of difluorine oxalic acid boracic acid lithium (LiODFB) electrolytic salt.
Background technology
At present, commercial conventional lithium salts is lithium hexafluoro phosphate (LiPF
6), LiPF
6facile hydrolysis, poor heat stability, can form HF immediately with when residual water contacts in the moisture in air or solvent, has a negative impact to the performance of battery.Usual LiPF
6share with NSC 11801 (EC) and be made into electrolytic solution and could form effective solid electrolyte interface (SEI) film at negative pole, but the fusing point of EC higher (37 DEG C), limit the low temperature use properties of battery.
Now, large quantifier elimination starts the Synthesis and application being devoted to new lithium salts, ites is desirable to find can replace existing lithium salts, the novel substance that performance is more excellent.LiBF4 (LiBF
4) relative to LiPF
6insensitive to ambient moisture, charge migration resistance is little at low temperatures, and thus low-temperature performance is better than LiPF
6, but be used alone the capacity and coulombic efficiency decline that can cause lithium ion battery; Biethyl diacid lithium borate (LiBOB) Heat stability is good, there is good electrochemical stability, can be formed on graphite and stablize and the SEI film of densification, improve the cycle performance of battery, but dissolve hardly in the solvent (particularly linear carbonates class) of part low-k, and the SEI membrane resistance formed is very large, low-temperature performance is poor, and application is restricted.
What current industry attracted most attention is comprise half LiBOB and half LiBF in molecular structure
4the new lithium salts of molecule---LiODFB.Because LiODFB has LiBF
4part-structure, so low-temperature performance increases, there is again the part-structure of LiBOB simultaneously, also there is good high-temperature behavior, and unlike LiBOB to impurity and moisture so responsive.The solubleness of LiODFB in linear carbonate solvent is larger, therefore has higher specific conductivity, and can make fusing point lower solvent PC(-49 DEG C) form stable SEI film on graphite cathode surface, use problem to provide favourable prerequisite for solving battery low temperature.The positive electrode material of LiODFB to manganese base and iron-based has good thermostability, and LiODFB can also improve the resistance to abuse of lithium ion battery.Due to LiODFB, it combines LiBOB and LiBF
4the advantage of two kinds of lithium salts, its over-all properties is better than present any one lithium salts, is expected to the new lithium salts becoming alternative existing electrolyte lithium salt.
