Technical Field
The application relates to the technical field of lithium ion batteries, in particular to a preparation method of an electrode plate, the electrode plate and a lithium ion battery.
Background
Along with the continuous development of science and technology, the application field of lithium ion batteries is expanded to electric automobiles, energy storage power supplies, aviation fields and the like from portable electronic products. Particularly, large-sized electric equipment such as electric automobiles and the like are required to have certain endurance mileage and cycle life matched with the electric automobiles on the premise of ensuring safety, so that higher requirements on the energy density, cycle life and multiplying power performance of the lithium ion battery are provided.
The energy density can be improved in various ways, such as by increasing the thickness of the positive and negative electrode plates, increasing the compacted density of the active material for tight assembly, and increasing the gram capacity of the active material. In contrast, the thickness of the electrode plate is the most direct method for improving the energy density of the battery, compared with the method for improving the compaction density, the method can obviously reduce the use amount of the positive and negative current collectors and the separator, save the material cost, and obviously reduce the process amount of battery production such as coating, drying, compaction, slitting, assembly and the like of the electrode plate, and save the production cost. However, the increase of the thickness of the electrode sheet can cause problems of reduced lithium ion transmission rate and uneven electrolyte infiltration.
The transmission dynamics of the electrode plate is closely related to the microstructure of the electrode plate, the hole structures in the electrode plate and on the surface play an important role in the transmission speed of lithium ions, and particularly under the condition that the thickness of the electrode reaches a certain degree, the problems of the reduction of the transmission speed of the lithium ions and uneven infiltration of electrolyte caused by the increase of the thickness of the electrode plate can be solved by obtaining an ideal hole structure. In the related art, reduced diffusion path length and ohmic resistance can be achieved using 3D microstructured electrodes, resulting in higher capacity and power density. However, 3D microstructured electrodes are relatively expensive and involve additional complex manufacturing steps. In another method, an insoluble organic solvent, i.e., a secondary fluid, is added to the graphite and conductive agent when they are dispersed in an aqueous binder solution, thereby forming a capillary suspension across the sample network, and achieving the effect of producing a highly porous microstructure.

It can be appreciated that by reasonably selecting the mass ratio of the electrode active material, the conductive agent, the binder and the solvent, a porous electrode slurry having better rheology, more uniform pore distribution and more uniform dispersion can be obtained.
In a second aspect, the present application also provides an electrode sheet obtained by using the preparation method of the first aspect, where capillary holes exist on the electrode sheet, and at least a part of the capillary holes extend from the surface of the electrode sheet to the inside of the electrode sheet.
In the scheme, capillary holes exist on the electrode plate, and the capillary holes can extend from the surface of the electrode plate to the inside of the electrode plate, so that the structure is beneficial to the transmission of lithium ions.

It can be understood that when the diameter of the capillary holes is smaller than 1 μm, the diameter of the capillary holes is too small, the improvement of the porosity of the electrode sheet is not obvious, so that the lithium ion transmission rate is not improved, and when the diameter of the capillary holes is larger than 8 μm, the phenomenon of 'foil leakage' may occur, and the prepared battery may generate lithium precipitation, thereby affecting the safety of the battery.
With reference to the second aspect, in one possible embodiment, the porosity of the electrode sheet is greater than or equal to 35%.
Alternatively, the porosity of the electrode sheet may be 35%, 40%, 45%, 50%, 55%, or the like, but may be other values within the above range, which is not limited thereto.

Table 1 comparative examples and comparative examples obtained a comparative table of the basic properties of electrode sheets
Table 2 comparative table of basic performances of full cells prepared from electrode sheets obtained in examples and comparative examples
As can be seen from the experimental results obtained in examples 1 to 10 and comparative examples 1 to 4 of Table 1, in combination with FIG. 5, the electrode sheet prepared by the preparation method of the present application has a porosity of 35% or more and a pore size distribution in the range of 1 μm to 8 μm, whereas the electrode sheet prepared by using a single first active material as an electrode active material has a porosity of 32%, which is significantly lower than the porosity of the electrode sheet of the present application, and a pore size distribution in the range of 0 μm to 1 μm, which is smaller than the pore size distribution range of the electrode sheet of the present application. The porosity of the electrode plate prepared by taking the single second active material as the electrode active material can reach 43.5 percent, which is obviously higher than that of the electrode plate of the application, but the pore size distribution is in the range of 2-15 mu m and is larger than that of the electrode plate of the application, which can cause the phenomenon of foil leakage, and the prepared battery can possibly generate lithium precipitation, thereby influencing the safety of the battery. When the contact angle of the electrode active material selected with the solvent is more than 90 °, the prepared slurry is not good due to the wettability with the solvent, resulting in sedimentation of the slurry. When two kinds of artificial graphite with contact angles in the range of 0-40 degrees and specific contact angle values different are selected to prepare the anode plate, capillary pore phenomenon is not observed in the obtained anode plate, the porosity is obviously lower, the initial effect and the positive gram capacity are lower than those of the embodiment of the application, and the normal-temperature cycle life is shortened. As can be seen from the experimental results of examples 1 to 10 of Table 2, the full cell prepared from the electrode sheet of the present application is excellent in capacity, initial efficiency and cycle performance. As can be seen from the experimental results of example 1 and comparative examples 1 to 3, the full cell capacity, the first efficiency and the cell cycle performance prepared by the electrode sheet of the present application are significantly better than those of the electrode sheet prepared by using a single first active material or a single second active material as the electrode active material, which indicates that the electrode sheet of the present application can effectively improve the electrical performance of the full cell.
As can be seen from the scanning electron microscope diagrams of FIGS. 1 to 4, the electrode sheet obtained in the embodiment 1 of the present application has capillary holes distributed on the surface thereof when not rolled, and the capillary holes are uniformly distributed, so that the capillary holes on the surface of the electrode sheet after rolling are clearly visible. When the electrode sheet obtained in comparative example 1 of the present application was not rolled, no obvious capillary holes were observed on the surface of the electrode sheet, and several capillary holes were visible on the surface of the electrode sheet after rolling, and the number of capillary holes was significantly smaller than that of the electrode sheet obtained in example 1 of the present application.
By subjecting the electrode sheets obtained in example 1 of the present application and comparative example 1 to respective liquid absorption tests, it was found that the liquid had uniformly spread around the electrode sheet obtained in example 1 of the present application at a liquid absorption time of 120s, as shown in fig. 6. Whereas the electrode sheet obtained in comparative example 1 of the present application was still uneven in liquid diffusion at a liquid suction time of 220s, as shown in FIG. 7. Therefore, the electrode active material is adopted to prepare the electrode plate, so that the liquid suction time of the electrode plate can be shortened, the liquid suction speed of the electrode plate can be further improved, the battery capacity is increased, and the cycle life of the battery is prolonged.
As can be seen from the comparison of the cycle performance of the full cell of fig. 8, the full cell prepared by using the electrode sheet of the embodiment of the present application has excellent electrical cycle performance.
The above description is only of the preferred embodiments of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application, but various modifications and variations can be made to the present application by those skilled in the art. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
