Detailed Description
The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, not all, embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
Referring to fig. 1, an embodiment of the invention provides a pole piece 100.
As shown in fig. 1, the pole piece 100 includes a current collector 10 and an active material layer 20, the active material layer 20 being provided on at least one side of the current collector 10; the active material layer 20 includes a carbon nanotube bundle 21 and active material particles 22, pores are formed between the carbon nanotubes in the carbon nanotube bundle 21, and the active material particles 22 are distributed in the pores.
In the embodiment of the present invention, the carbon nanotube bundle 21 is fluffy, that is, pores are formed between the carbon nanotubes in the carbon nanotube bundle, and the active material particles 22 are distributed in the pores, so that the carbon nanotube bundle 21 and the active material are compositely adhered to the current collector 10. Alternatively, in one embodiment, the areal density of the pole piece 100 is 1mg/cm2To 100mg/cm2。
The carbon nanotube bundle 21 has strong conductivity, and can improve the transmission capability and rate capability of lithium ions in the charging and discharging process of the battery, so that the lithium ion battery prepared based on the pole piece 100 has relatively excellent high-rate charging and discharging characteristics. Moreover, the carbon nanotube bundle 21 has a certain flexibility, and attaching the carbon nanotube bundle 21 to the current collector 10 can improve the flexibility of the current collector 10 without being easily broken, and can withstand bending or even folding operations. In addition, due to the conductive performance of the carbon nanotube cluster 21, when the active material particles are prepared, a conductive agent does not need to be added, and the manufacturing cost of the pole piece 10 can be reduced to a certain extent.
It should be noted that the electrode sheet 100 may be a positive electrode sheet, that is, the active material particles 22 are positive active material particles, the positive active material particles include but are not limited to one or more of lithium cobaltate, lithium manganate, lithium nickelate, lithium nickel manganese cobaltate, lithium nickel manganese cobalt aluminate, lithium nickel cobaltate, and lithium-rich manganese, and the current collector 10 may be an aluminum foil. The electrode sheet 100 may also be a negative electrode sheet, that is, the active material particles 22 are negative active material particles including but not limited to one or more of lithium titanate, lithium powder, aluminum powder, metal oxide, artificial graphite, natural graphite, silicon alloy, sulfur alloy, and silicon carbon, and the current collector 10 may be a copper foil.

Optionally, an electrolyte is further included, the electrolyte being stored in the pores.
During cycling of the cell, the electrolyte within the housing needs to be consumed. In this embodiment, pores are formed between the carbon nanotubes in the fluffy carbon nanotube bundle 21, and the pores can store the electrolyte and can supplement the electrolyte in the battery circulation process, so that the battery circulation performance is improved, and the battery life is prolonged.
Optionally, the contact angle between the carbon nanotubes and the electrolyte is less than 5 °.
In this embodiment, the contact angle between the carbon nanotube and the electrolyte may include two conditions: in the first case, the contact angle between the carbon nanotubes and the electrolyte stored in the pores; in the second case, the contact angle between the carbon nanotubes and the electrolyte injected into the battery case. The smaller the contact angle, the higher the wettability of the electrolyte, that is, the easier the electrolyte wets the carbon nanotubes, and the electrolyte consumed during the cyclic charge and discharge process is replenished, so that the charge and discharge effect of the battery is better, and the smaller the contact angle, the more electrolyte is stored in the pores. When the contact angle is smaller than 5 degrees, the wettability of the electrolyte is high, and the electrolyte which can be stored in the pores is more, so that the charging and discharging effects of the battery can be improved, the rate capability of the battery is improved, the cycle performance of the battery is further improved, and the service life of the battery is further prolonged.
Optionally, the porosity of the carbon nanotube bundle is greater than 96%.
In this embodiment, the carbon nanotube bundle has a high porosity, and the pores can contain more active material particles and electrolyte, so that the energy density of the battery can be improved, the cycle performance of the battery can be further improved, and the service life of the battery can be further prolonged.
In summary, the electrode plate provided by the embodiment of the invention is prepared by compounding and adhering the carbon nanotube bundle and the active material on the surface of the current collector, and the carbon nanotube bundle has strong conductivity, so that the transmission capability and rate capability of lithium ions in the charging and discharging processes of the battery can be improved.
