Description

Electrolyte for high-voltage lithium metal battery and lithium metal battery
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a lithium metal battery and a key material thereof, and more particularly, to an electrolyte solution for a high voltage lithium metal battery and a lithium metal battery.
Background
With the continuous consumption of fossil energy, resources and environmental issues are receiving more and more attention. The development of clean, efficient and sustainable energy storage and conversion devices is an urgent problem to be solved. As a representative of new energy storage devices, lithium ion batteries have become a focus of research in various countries because of their advantages of high energy density, long cycle life, high output voltage, environmental friendliness, no memory effect, and the like.
The electrolyte is known as the 'blood' of the battery, and has important functions of carrying lithium ion transmission, generating a solid electrolyte membrane on the interface of a positive electrode and a negative electrode and the like in the battery. Because trace moisture is inevitably introduced in the manufacturing process of each part of the battery core, free HF may exist in the electrolyte due to lithium salt, and in addition, part of the lithium salt is sensitive to water, especially LiPF commonly used at present 6 Easily react with water to form POF 3 Strong lewis acids such as HF. The strong lewis acid generated in these reactions decomposes carbonate solvents such as Ethylene Carbonate (EC), Ethyl Methyl Carbonate (EMC) and dimethyl carbonate (DMC) on the electrode surface to form lithium carbonate (Li) 2 CO 3 ) Products such as lithium alkyl salt (ROCOOLi), lithium fluoride (LiF) and the like cover the surface of the electrode material, so that the interface impedance of the electrode/electrolyte is increased, and the cycle rate performance of the battery is influenced. Meanwhile, the formed HF can continuously erode the anode material and react with the transition metal ions in a high oxidation state to cause the transition metal to be dissolved, and even cause the structure of the anode material to be subjected to irreversible transformation; in addition, the anode material is easy to have violent structural transformation under high pressure, and the traditional carbonate-based electrolyte has lower oxidative decomposition potential and is oxidized and decomposed under high pressure of more than 4.5VThe reaction is aggravated, and the performance and the service life of the battery are seriously influenced. At present, the high-voltage electrolyte is generally designed by using a solvent with higher electronegativity to increase the oxidation potential of the electrolyte, such as fluoro-carbonate, fluoro-borate, sulfone solvents and fluoroether solvents. Recent reports also propose the use of ionic liquids and ultra-high concentration electrolytes to effectively solve the problem of oxidative decomposition of electrolytes under high pressure. However, the high cost of such electrolytes has hindered their ability to be practically used in the industry.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention aims to provide the electrolyte for the high-voltage lithium metal battery, which can work stably for a long time under the high voltage of more than 4.5V, has obvious cost advantage and is suitable for large-scale use. The invention is carried out according to the following embodiments.
An electrolyte usable for a high voltage lithium metal battery, which is in a liquid state, and is composed of a metal lithium salt, an organic solvent and an additive, wherein the metal lithium salt is composed of lithium hexafluorophosphate and a boron-containing lithium salt, and the concentration of the lithium hexafluorophosphate in the electrolyte is greater than that of the boron-containing lithium salt; the organic solvent consists of Hydrofluoroether (HFE), cyclic carbonate and linear carbonate; the additive is one or more of tris (trimethylsilyl) phosphate, tris (trimethylsilyl) phosphite or difluoro diphosphoric acid bis (trimethylsilyl); the additive accounts for 0.1-5% of the total mass of the electrolyte, the organic solvent accounts for 60-90% of the total mass of the electrolyte, and the balance is the metal lithium salt. The tris (trimethylsilyl) phosphate, tris (trimethylsilyl) phosphite or bis (trimethylsilyl) difluorodiphosphonate referred to in this application is collectively referred to as "methylsilyl (phosphite"
The boron-containing lithium salt used is selected from lithium tetrafluoroborate (LiBF) 4 ) One or more of lithium bis (oxalato) borate (LiBOB) or lithium difluoro (oxalato) borate (lidob), preferably lithium difluoro (oxalato) borate (lidob).
The organic solvent contains one or two of cyclic carbonate selected from Ethylene Carbonate (EC) or Propylene Carbonate (PC), and linear carbonate selected from one or more of Ethyl Methyl Carbonate (EMC), dimethyl carbonate (DMC) or diethyl carbonate (DEC), preferably.
In experiments, the ratio of the hydrofluoroether to the total mass of cyclic carbonate and linear carbonate in the organic solvent is found to be (0.2-2): 1, the mass ratio of the cyclic carbonate to the linear carbonate is (0.1-1): 1, the electrolyte has better performance and the material consumption is proper.
A lithium metal battery comprises a positive electrode, a negative electrode, a diaphragm, electrolyte and a shell, wherein the positive electrode is formed by coating positive electrode slurry formed by mixing an active substance which is a ternary positive electrode active material, a conductive agent carbon black and a binder polyvinylidene fluoride according to the weight ratio of 8:1:1 on a positive electrode current collector Al foil, the negative electrode is a metal lithium sheet, and the diaphragm is a diaphragm commonly used by the existing lithium ion battery, such as polyethylene, polypropylene, polytetrafluoroethylene, polyththalimide and the like; the electrolyte adopts the electrolyte which can be used for the high-voltage lithium ion battery, and the shell can be an aluminum shell, soft plastic and the like; wherein the ternary positive active material adopts a lithium-rich manganese-based or high-nickel ternary material, such as Li [ ] 0.2 Mn 0.53 Ni 0.27 ]O 2 、LiNi 0.6 Co 0.2 Mn 0.2 O 2 And the like. And assembling by adopting the conventional assembly process of the lithium ion battery. The charge cut-off voltage of the battery is 4.5-4.9V.
Compared with the prior electrolyte for the lithium metal battery, the invention has the following advantages:
1. the invention particularly selects the scheme that the adopted lithium salt is lithium hexafluorophosphate, boron-containing lithium salt and a specific methyl silicon-based (phosphite) phosphate additive, the boron-containing lithium salt and the additive have obvious synergistic effect, and the voltage window can be obviously improved. Compared with other high-solubility metal lithium salts such as LiFSI and LiTFSI, the lithium hexafluorophosphate has higher electrochemical stability and can be used in a high-voltage working environment of more than 4.5V. The boron-containing lithium salt reacts with oxygen free radicals in the electrolyte to form firm LI-B-O and B-O bonding components, so that a firmer interface is constructed to inhibit the decomposition of the electrolyte and the dissolution of transition metal, and the methyl silicon-based (phosphite) phosphate additive directionally captures HF, so that the damage of HF to the electrolyte interface is reduced, ammonium salt precipitation is not generated, side reaction is avoided, and the performance of the battery is further improved.
2. Compared with other electrolyte technical schemes under high voltage, for example, a solvent system with strong electronegativity such as a fluoro solvent and a sulfone solvent is used, although the oxidation potential of the electrolyte can be effectively increased, the fluoro solvent can inevitably generate harmful acidic substances such as HF, the oxidation decomposition potential of the sulfone solvent is over 5.5V, most of the sulfone solvents are solid at room temperature, the viscosity is high, the conductivity is low, and the cost is high and the wide application is difficult. The use of the high-concentration lithium salt can effectively increase the stability of an electrolyte system, greatly improve the production cost and have no economic benefit. The use of other novel lithium salts or additives, such as LiDFP, can effectively optimize the film-forming component and reduce the impedance, but the lithium salts or additives have low solubility per se, poor oxidation stability and are not applicable under a high-pressure system; the nitrile additive has good oxidation resistance, but is easy to polymerize in graphite or lithium metal negative electrodes to influence the de-intercalation of lithium ions; the common carbonate additive has low cost and good film forming effect, but is faced with more serious CO in the circulating process 2 The problem of gas generation. The scheme of the invention has the advantages of low consumption of the boron-containing lithium salt and the methyl silicon-based (phosphite) phosphate additive, obvious effect, cost advantage, no side effect, simple preparation and higher practical value.
3. The organic solvent of the invention also particularly selects a scheme of combining the hydrofluoroether with two different types of carbonic acid esters, not only fully utilizes the excellent oxidation stability of the hydrofluoroether solvent, but also has obvious cost advantage. The combination of the cyclic carbonate and the linear carbonate, the high dielectric constant of the cyclic ester and the low viscosity of the linear ester are utilized, so that the electrolyte has the advantages of high ionic conductivity and wide liquid range under the condition of ensuring that lithium salt is fully dissolved and dissociated, and is suitable for being used in different temperature ranges. The scheme has practical benefit and application prospect for realizing a lithium metal electrolyte system with low cost and high voltage stability.

As seen from the results of the performance tests of the above comparative examples and examples of table 4, the cycle performance and voltage stability of the battery were poor without adding the boron-containing lithium salt and the additive; after the lithium salt containing boron is added, the cycle performance and the voltage stability are obviously improved. Meanwhile, the boron-containing lithium salt and the methyl silicon-based (phosphite) phosphate compound additive are used, so that the voltage stability of the battery is further improved, and the battery has good cycle performance. And the addition of the hydrofluoroether solvent can better improve the high-pressure cycle performance of the electrolyte and show better long-term service life.
It should be further noted that the methylsilyl (phosphite) phosphate compounds represented by TMSP and TMSPi have the ability to directionally scavenge HF in the electrolyte and form films, so that they have a significant effect on the voltage stability of the positive electrode material. The methyl silicon-based (phosphite) phosphate reacts with trace HF components in the electrolyte to form a silicon element derived CEI film, so that the decomposition of lithium salt and a solvent is inhibited, the interface stability between the positive electrode and the electrolyte and the interface stability between the negative electrode and the electrolyte are effectively improved, and the capacity, the normal-temperature cycle life, the rate capability and the voltage stability of the lithium ion battery are improved.
The boron-containing lithium salt has a lower Highest Occupied Molecular Orbital (HOMO) energy level, shows excellent oxidation stability, and can participate in the formation of an electrode/electrolyte interface film, so that the stability of an electrode and an electrolyte interface is improved, and the performance of the battery is obviously improved. In the examples, the LiDFOB is a representative of the boron-containing lithium salt, and other boron-containing lithium salts can also play the same role as the LiDFOB, and are also applicable to the electrolyte of the invention, which is not listed.
