Description

Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of batteries, in particular to a porous negative electrode, a preparation method thereof and a battery.
Background
Silicon materials have been widely studied as a recent research and application of lithium battery anode materials. The focus of the current research is to construct a three-dimensional structure from different dimensions, use a novel binder, compound silicon with other anode materials, and the like, aiming at the problem of large expansion of the silicon material in the charge-discharge process.
Three-dimensional structures are constructed from material dimensions, such as the preparation of porous silicon materials. The preparation difficulty of the porous silicon material is high, and the porous material is unfavorable for the release of electrolyte, so that the volume energy density of the battery core is reduced. The novel binder, such as acrylic resin (Acrylic acid Polymers, PAA) and the like, can improve the adhesion between the negative electrode materials and between the negative electrode host and the current collector due to its network structure, and can improve the expansion of the silicon negative electrode to some extent. However, in the case of a high silicon negative electrode system, PAA has a high glass transition temperature, which causes the electrode sheet to become brittle, and the addition of PAA reduces the improvement of expansion, so that this method, although the expansion is improved, reduces other properties of the negative electrode, and the overall improvement of the performance of the negative electrode is not desirable.

Detailed Description
The following description of the embodiments of the present invention will be made clearly and fully with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which it is evident that the embodiments described are some, but not all embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments, which can be made by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the invention without making any inventive effort, are intended to be within the scope of the invention.
The porous anode according to the embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to the drawings.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 shows a schematic side sectional structure of a porous anode according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1, the porous anode includes a current collector, a porous layer, and a dense layer. The porous layer is arranged on the surface of the current collector, and a plurality of pore channels are formed in one end face, away from the current collector, of the porous layer. The compact layer is arranged on one side of the porous layer, which is away from the current collector.
According to the porous cathode provided by the embodiment of the invention, the porous layer is provided with the plurality of holes, so that a space can be reserved for the expansion of silicon in the charge and discharge process of the battery, and meanwhile, the wettability of electrolyte is improved, and the multiplying power performance of a battery core is improved. In addition, as the silicon material in the conventional pole piece, which is close to the current collector, has large distance for lithium ions to reach and poor electrolyte wettability, a large part of the silicon material does not participate in charge-discharge reaction, so that the capacity is wasted, and the utilization rate of silicon can be improved by the pore channel structure. In addition, the porous layer is arranged on the surface of the porous layer, so that structural change of the porous layer can be restrained, and unstable pole pieces caused by collapse of pore channels in the cell circulation process are prevented.
As shown in fig. 1, the perforation (pore canal) starts at the side of the porous layer facing the dense layer, wherein the pores may be blind pores (non-through pores), i.e. the side facing the current collector is not perforated. The invention adopts the blind hole, on one hand, the problem that the open hole is easy to increase the probability of the current collector to cause short circuit can be solved. On the other hand, when the upper and lower ends of the hole are both openings (through holes), the supporting force of the upper and lower ends of the porous layer is weakened, and corner collapse is easily generated in the charge and discharge process. The non-through hole structure (blind hole) can maintain the integrity of the pore structure, avoid corner collapse and improve the stability of the cathode.
In an embodiment of the invention, the pore spacing between the plurality of pores is between 10 and 1000 microns. Preferably, the hole spacing is between 100 and 1000 microns. The excessive hole spacing reduces the proportion of effective silicon in the porous layer (silicon in the middle part of the pore canal does not participate in charge-discharge reaction). Meanwhile, in an effective space, the expansion control of silicon is reduced, and the circulation performance is reduced; the lithium ion channels are reduced, and the rate performance is also reduced. The too small hole spacing is easy to cause collapse of the pore canal, so that the negative electrode is unstable, and more time and manpower and material resources are consumed during punching. Therefore, the adoption of the pore spacing in the range is beneficial to maintaining the cycle performance of the battery, can maintain the multiplying power performance of the battery, can avoid the collapse of pore channels and the like, and can maintain the stability of the electrode plate.
In embodiments of the invention, the diameter of the pore canal ranges from 1 to 1000 microns. In preferred embodiments of the present application, the diameter of the holes ranges between 30 and 80 microns, for example, 40 microns, 50 microns, 60 microns, or 70 microns, etc. The pore diameter in the range can ensure the expansion space of silicon, and is beneficial to improving the cycle performance and the multiplying power performance of the battery.
Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 shows a top view of a porous layer of one embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 2, the porous layer structure obtained by the preparation method has a plurality of pores arranged in order. Wherein, the spacing between the pore channels is 144.7 μm, 142.5 μm and 140.6 μm, and the pore diameter of the pore channels is 47.1 μm and 48.9 μm. The existence of the porous layer can ensure the expansion space of silicon in the charge and discharge of the battery, thereby being beneficial to improving the cycle performance and the multiplying power performance of the battery.
In one embodiment of the present invention, the pore depth of the pore canal accounts for 30-95% of the thickness of the porous layer, and further may be 70-80%. The thickness direction of the porous layer is the extending direction from one end adjacent to the dense layer to one end adjacent to the current collector (the distance from the top to the bottom of the porous layer as shown in fig. 1 is the thickness of the porous layer). When the depth of the pore canal is too small, the proportion of effective silicon in the porous layer is reduced (namely, the proportion of silicon which is close to the current collector and does not participate in charge and discharge is increased). And when the expansion space of silicon is reduced, the cycle performance of the battery is reduced, the lithium ion channel is reduced, and the multiplying power performance is also reduced.
In one embodiment of the invention, the compacted density of the porous layer, the compacted density of the dense layer may be in the range of 1.5 to 1.75g/cc. Preferably, the porous layer has a compacted density of between 1.6 and 1.7g/cc, which provides effective support for the cells. And the compacted density is favorable for lithium ion shuttling, and can improve the rate capability.
In embodiments of the present invention, the densified layer can have a compacted density of 1.5 to 1.75g/cc. Preferably, the compacted density may be between 1.55 and 1.6 g/cc. The compaction density has good supporting force, and can effectively avoid the unstable pole piece condition caused by the collapse of the pore canal in the cell circulation process.
The ratio of the thickness of the porous layer to the thickness of the dense layer was 2:8. and the thickness of the porous layer accounts for 51-99% of the total thickness of the porous cathode. The proportion can better avoid the collapse of the pore canal on one hand, and on the other hand, the thickness of the proportion is proper, thereby being beneficial to the shuttling of lithium ions and improving the multiplying power performance of the battery.
Therefore, according to the porous anode provided by the embodiment of the invention, the space is reserved for the expansion of silicon, the wettability of electrolyte is improved, and the multiplying power performance of the battery cell is improved. And the channel structure can improve the utilization rate of silicon. Has the characteristics of high capacity, high cycle stability and excellent quick-charging performance.

and (3) punching the layer structure obtained in the step (2) by using a laser punching device, wherein the aperture is 100 micrometers, the depth of the holes is 100mm, and the distance between the holes is 100 micrometers.

and (3) coating, drying at 100 ℃ and rolling on the primary pole piece obtained in the step (3) by using the slurry obtained in the step (4). Wherein the coating thickness is 30mm, the compaction density is 1.6g/cc, and the porous pole piece is obtained.
Example 2
The preparation process was the same as in example 1 except that the negative electrode material was a nano-silicon material.
Example 3
The procedure was the same as in example 1 except that the compacted density in step (2) was reduced to 1.65 g/cc.
Example 4
The procedure was the same as in example 1 except that the pore size in step (3) was changed to 50. Mu.m.
Example 5

Example 7

The negative electrode plate prepared in the comparative example and the porous electrode plate prepared in the example are respectively prepared into a button cell and a full cell, and the preparation methods are the same. The gram capacity of the negative electrode sheet, the energy density of the secondary full cell, the cycle life and the rate performance were each tested, and the test results are shown in table 1.
Table 1 test results
From the above test results, it was found that the secondary batteries fabricated with the porous negative plates prepared in examples 1 to 8 of the present invention exhibited higher energy density and excellent cycle stability than the secondary batteries fabricated with the composite negative plates prepared by directly mixing the silicon oxygen material with the graphite material.
The above test data are analyzed as follows.
As shown in table 1, it is found from the analysis of the test results of comparative example and example 1 that in the uniformly mixed anode material, the volume expansion of silicon occurs during charge and discharge, resulting in repeated cracking and generation of the solid electrolyte interface SEI film, resulting in poor cycle stability. In addition, silicon near the current collector has poor wettability to the entire electrode sheet, and does not participate in the charge-discharge reaction, and thus does not exhibit capacity. And the silicon oxide material with the same proportion is arranged on the inner side of the pole piece, and a three-dimensional pore canal structure is constructed, and the pore canal provides a favorable space for the expansion of silicon. In addition, the wettability of the electrolyte, the shuttle speed of lithium ions and the utilization rate of silicon can be improved.
Analysis of the test results of examples 1 and 2 shows that the nano-silicon material has a higher gram capacity of 1800mAh/g relative to the silicon oxygen material. In which, since the silicon oxide material is a matrix of SiOx formed by replacing a part of silicon atoms with oxygen atoms, lithium ions are not intercalated into SiOx during charging, that is, siOx is generated by passivating a part of silicon, thereby not providing capacity. In addition, siOx does not expand because lithium intercalation does not occur during charging, and thus SiOx is considered to function as a base to confine (exert capacity of) silicon. Therefore, the same ratio of silicon to silicon oxygen materials, the capacity of pure silicon materials is large. For the pure silicon raw material of nano silicon, the expansion is larger due to the lack of oxygen, so the cycle stability is poor. However, since lithium ions can directly contact and react with silicon, the rate performance of the battery corresponding to the example 2 using nano silicon as a raw material is improved.
As can be seen from the analysis of the test results of examples 1 and 3, the reduction of the compaction density is more favorable for lithium ion shuttling in the negative electrode plate main material part, and the rate performance is improved. It follows that reasonable values of compaction density are critical to the improvement of rate capability.
From the analysis of the test results of examples 1 and 4, it was found that the pore diameter was reduced, the silicon content was increased, and the negative electrode capacity was increased, but the expansion space for silicon was reduced, and the cycle performance was reduced from 600 cycles to 550 cycles in the examples. The lithium ion channels decreased and the rate performance also decreased as shown in table 1 from 3C rate to 2.5 rate. It follows that reasonable values of compaction density are critical to the improvement of rate capability.
As is clear from the analysis of the test results of example 1 and example 5, the pore depth was reduced, and the proportion of effective silicon in the porous layer was reduced (i.e., the proportion of silicon near the current collector that did not participate in charge and discharge was increased). For a decrease in the expansion space of silicon, the cycle performance decreases from 600 cycles to 550 cycles as in table 1. The lithium ion channels decreased and the rate performance also decreased as shown in table 1 from 3C rate to 2.5 rate. It follows that a reasonable pore depth is critical to the improvement of cycle performance and rate performance of the battery.
As is clear from the analysis of the test results of example 1 and example 6, the proportion of effective silicon in the porous layer decreases (silicon in the middle portion of the cell channels does not participate in the charge-discharge reaction) by increasing the cell pitch. For the reduction in expansion space of silicon, the cycle performance reduction was reduced from 600 cycles to 550 cycles as in table 1. The lithium ion channels decreased and the rate performance also decreased as shown in table 1 from 3C rate to 2.5 rate. It follows that a reasonable pore spacing is critical to the improvement of cycle performance and rate performance of the battery.
From the analysis of the test results of examples 1, 7 and 8, the effect of the thickness of the dense layer on the cell was found. The thicker the dense layer, the lower the proportion of silicon that can effectively exert capacity, and the lower the negative electrode capacity, for example, from 1000mAh/g to 750mAh/g and 650mAh/g, respectively, in Table 1, and the lower the cell energy density, for example, from 350Wh/kg to 330Wh/kg and 320Wh/kg, respectively, in Table 1. The expansion constraint of the thick dense layer on the porous layer was also large, so the cycle performance was improved, as shown in table 1 from 600 cycles to 800 cycles. In addition, the thicker dense layer affects the shuttling of lithium ions to some extent, resulting in a reduction in rate performance. Therefore, the reasonable selection of the thickness of the compact layer influences the indexes of the cathode capacity, the energy density, the cycle performance, the multiplying power performance and the like.
