With the continuous development of new energy technology, the power battery is widely applied to various fields of various consumer electronic products, electric vehicles, aerospace and the like. In particular, with the continuous acceleration of the progress of the electric motor of automobiles in recent years, higher demands are also being made on the energy density and the rate capability of batteries as power sources.
Currently, the following methods are preferable for improving the energy density and the rate capability of the battery. Such as increasing the thickness of the positive and negative pole pieces, increasing the compaction density of the pole piece active material coating, increasing the gram capacity of the active material, and increasing the porosity of the pole piece active material coating, but in the above method, it is difficult to achieve both energy density and rate capability. If the thickness of the positive and negative electrode plates is increased, the ion transmission rate is obviously reduced, and the risk of poor electrolyte infiltration is accompanied. However, increasing the thickness of the pole piece is the most direct and simple method for increasing the energy density of the battery. Therefore, how to solve the problems of low ion transmission rate, uneven electrolyte infiltration and the like caused by the thick electrode is a technical difficulty which needs to be solved in the field. In view of the above, the application provides a thick positive electrode plate with high ion transmission rate and uniform electrolyte infiltration, a preparation method thereof, a battery and electric equipment.
Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 is a schematic structural diagram of a positive electrode sheet according to one or more embodiments. The application provides a positive electrode sheet 40, wherein the positive electrode sheet 40 comprises a base layer 41 and an active layer 43; the active layer 43 is disposed on the base layer 41, and the active layer 43 includes a positive electrode active material and an organic compound-based additive 431, and the organic compound-based additive 431 is soluble in an electrolyte.
The base layer 41 is a conductive base layer, and may be a current collector, and may be a metal foil or a composite material, for example, a composite conductive material formed by mixing a metal material with a polymer base material. For example, as the metal foil, aluminum foil may be used. The composite conductive material may include a polymeric material base layer and a metal layer formed on at least one surface of the polymeric material base layer. The composite conductive material may be formed by forming a metal material (aluminum, aluminum alloy, nickel alloy, titanium alloy, silver alloy, etc.) on a polymer material substrate (such as a substrate of polypropylene (PP), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), polystyrene (PS), polyethylene (PE), etc.). The base layer 41 may be cube-shaped with a first surface and a second surface disposed opposite in the thickness direction thereof for carrying the disposition of the other layer structures.
The active layer 43 includes at least a positive electrode active material. The active layer 43 may be in the form of a layered structure formed of an active material as a main material, and may be in the form of a layered film. The active layer 43 may be provided only on the first surface or the second surface of the base layer 41, or may be provided on both the first surface and the second surface of the base layer 41. The active layer 43 may be directly disposed on the surface of the base layer 41, or another functional material layer may be disposed between the active layer 43 and the base layer 41. The active layer 43 is the main structural layer of the electrode to realize the basic functions of the battery.
In this embodiment, the active layer 43 further includes an organic compound-based additive 431 that is soluble in the electrolyte. The electrolyte can be completely dissolved in the electrolyte or partially dissolved in the electrolyte, that is, the specific dissolution degree of the additive in the electrolyte is not excessively limited, and only a certain degree of dissolution is required. Preferably capable of being completely dissolved in the electrolyte. When the positive electrode sheet 40 is immersed in the electrolyte, the additive 431 can be dissolved into the electrolyte, so that pores are formed in the active layer 43, that is, the porosity of the positive electrode sheet 40 can be improved, and the migration rate of active ions can be further improved; meanwhile, the position occupied by the additive 431 is filled with the electrolyte, so that the contact area of the active material and the electrolyte can be remarkably increased, and the infiltration effect of the electrolyte is further improved. Further, the additive is selected as an organic compound substance, so that the additive is better in compatibility with the positive electrode slurry in the preparation process of the positive electrode plate, and can be uniformly dissolved and dispersed in the positive electrode slurry, so that the distribution uniformity of the additive in the active layer is improved when the active coating is formed, the distribution uniformity of pores in the positive electrode plate is further improved, and the infiltration effect and the ion transport rate of the electrode plate are improved to a greater extent.
Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 is a schematic diagram illustrating a change in state of a positive pole piece according to one or more embodiments. The application provides a battery, which comprises a porous positive electrode plate 50, wherein the porous positive electrode plate 50 is obtained by soaking the positive electrode plate 40 in electrolyte in any embodiment.
As shown in fig. 2, the positive electrode sheet 40 includes a base layer 41 and an active layer 43, and the active layer 43 includes a positive electrode active material and an organic compound-based additive 431. When the positive electrode sheet 40 is immersed in the electrolyte, the additive 431 can be dissolved into the electrolyte, so that the pores 433 are formed in the active layer 43, resulting in the porous positive electrode sheet 50. The porosity of the obtained porous positive electrode plate 50 is high, so that the migration rate of active ions can be improved; meanwhile, the position occupied by the additive 431 is filled with the electrolyte, so that the contact area of the active material and the electrolyte can be remarkably increased, and the infiltration effect of the electrolyte is further improved.
In one embodiment, the porosity of the porous positive electrode sheet is 20% -35%. For example, 20%, 23%, 25%, 28%, 30%, 32%, 35%, etc.; or the composition may be in the range of 20% to 25%, 25% to 30%, 30% to 35%, etc. After the electrolyte is soaked, the porosity of the positive electrode plate is larger, and the soaking effect can be improved.
Referring to fig. 3, fig. 3 is a flow chart illustrating a method of manufacturing a positive electrode sheet according to one or more embodiments. The application provides a preparation method of a positive pole piece, which comprises the following steps:
s110: and mixing the positive electrode active material, the organic compound additive and the solvent to obtain positive electrode slurry.
S120: coating the positive electrode slurry on a base layer, and drying to obtain a positive electrode plate; wherein the organic compound additive of the positive electrode plate can be dissolved in the electrolyte.
In one embodiment, the solvent used to prepare the positive electrode slurry includes one or more of N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP), N-Dimethylformamide (DMF), N-Diethylformamide (DEF), dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), pyridine, and Tetrahydrofuran (THF). By selecting these solvents, the stability and dispersion uniformity of the positive electrode active material in the slurry can be improved; meanwhile, the solubility of the organic additives in the slurry can be improved, and the problems of unstable slurry, easiness in layering and sedimentation and the like are solved. The selected solvent is a non-aqueous system, so that the problem of thermal hydrolysis of the additive can be solved.
In one embodiment, the mass ratio of the positive electrode active material to the additive is 97:1 to 97:5. For example, 97:1, 97:2, 97:3, 97:4, 97:5, etc. The porosity of the obtained positive electrode plate can be regulated and controlled by regulating and controlling the addition amount of the additive, so that the ion migration rate and the electrolyte infiltration effect can be improved.
In one embodiment, the positive electrode sheet coated with the positive electrode slurry may be heated, dried, and cooled to obtain the positive electrode sheet. The heating and baking temperature is 90-120deg.C, such as 90deg.C, 95deg.C, 100deg.C, 105, 110deg.C, 115, 120deg.C, etc. The positive electrode active material and the additive are not thermally decomposed due to overheating or the like on the basis of promoting the solvent volatile slurry to solidify by controlling the baking temperature.
The application is based on the preparation method of the positive pole piece, and starts from the principle of induced phase separation, in particular to the principle of double induced phase separation of heat and solvent, so as to prepare the positive pole piece with optimized performance.
Specifically, the additive is added in the stirring process of the positive electrode slurry, so that the additive is completely and uniformly dissolved and dispersed in the solvent, the solvent volatilizes due to low boiling point in the coating baking process because of higher baking temperature, the additive remains in the positive electrode active layer because of high boiling point, and the additive solidifies into a solid phase in the positive electrode active coating layer due to higher melting point in the subsequent cooling and winding process. Wherein, since the additive is uniformly dispersed in the solvent of the positive electrode slurry, the additive in the solid phase is uniformly dispersed in the active coating layer after the solvent is volatilized. In the process of assembling the positive electrode plate into a battery, particularly in the liquid injection process and the standing process, the solid phase additive in the active coating can be dissolved by the injected electrolyte, namely the electrolyte can fill the position occupied by the solid phase additive, the positive electrode plate prepared by the method can obviously increase the contact area of active substances and the electrolyte, obviously improve the infiltration effect of the electrolyte on the battery plate, effectively improve the migration rate of active ions in the electrode material, reduce the polarization internal resistance and improve the multiplying power performance of the plate.
In one embodiment, the additive is capable of being dissolved in a polar organic solvent. Alternatively, the polar organic solvent includes, but is not limited to, one or more of N-methylpyrrolidone, N-dimethylformamide, N-diethylformamide, dimethylsulfoxide, pyridine, and tetrahydrofuran.
The electrolyte solvent is mostly a polar solvent, and for example, the electrolyte includes one or more of carbonate solvents and ether solvents. In order to increase the solubility and dissolution rate of the additive in the electrolyte, the additive is preferably a compound capable of being dissolved in a polar organic solvent. Further, in order to improve the uniformity of the distribution of the additive in the active layer, the solvent used in the positive electrode slurry is usually a polar solvent, and the uniformity of the distribution of the additive in the positive electrode slurry is improved, so that the additive is completely and uniformly dissolved in the positive electrode slurry, and the uniformity of the distribution of the additive in the positive electrode active layer can be improved.
In one embodiment, the additive has a boiling point greater than 150 ℃ and a melting point greater than 30 ℃. For example, the boiling point of the additive may be greater than 160 ℃, 170 ℃, 180 ℃, etc.; the melting point of the additive may be greater than 35 ℃, 40 ℃, 50 ℃, etc.
In the process of manufacturing the positive electrode sheet, the additive is generally dissolved in the solvent of the positive electrode slurry, and after the solvent volatilizes, the additive is dissolved out to form a solid phase so as to occupy the space of the active layer, and after the additive is dissolved by the electrolyte, the pore is formed in the positive electrode active layer. Based on this, it is necessary that the additive has a higher boiling point, at least higher than the boiling point of the solvent used in the positive electrode slurry, so that the additive does not volatilize together when the solvent volatilizes; further, the baking and drying temperature of the positive electrode plate is higher than that of the positive electrode plate, so that the additive cannot volatilize in the drying process; furthermore, the melting point of the additive should be higher than room temperature to be solid after the pole piece is cooled to room temperature, so as to prevent the problem of low strength of the pole piece caused by influence of excessive liquid phase components in the positive electrode active layer on the mechanical stability of the active layer. Therefore, the additive is preferably an organic compound having a boiling point greater than 150 ℃ and a melting point greater than 30 ℃.
In one embodiment, the additive should have good thermal and solvent stability so that the additive is relatively stable in the positive electrode slurry and does not chemically react with the solvent of the slurry or other additives; meanwhile, the pole piece cannot be thermally decomposed in the drying process. Further, the additives do not negatively affect the battery performance after dissolution in the electrolyte.
In one embodiment, the additive includes a solvent for the electrolyte and/or an additive for the electrolyte. By selecting the solvent and/or additive used in the electrolyte as the additive of the active layer, the additive can be used as the electrolyte additive when dissolved in the electrolyte, thereby improving the battery performance or being used as the electrolyte cosolvent to supplement the electrolyte, and reducing the risk of the service life reduction of the battery caused by electrolyte consumption.
In one embodiment, the additive comprises one or more of ethylene carbonate, 1,3-propane sultone.
Wherein the boiling point of the ethylene carbonate (Ethylene Carbonate, EC) is 248 ℃/760mm Hg,243-244 ℃/740mmHg; the melting point is 35-38 ℃; transparent colorless liquid at 35 ℃ and crystalline solid at room temperature. Ethylene carbonate is an organic solvent with excellent performance and is often used as an electrolyte solvent; it is capable of dissolving a variety of substances, and is also miscible with a variety of solvents. 1,3-propane sultone (1, 3-Propanesultone,1, 3-PS) has a boiling point of 180 ℃/30mmHg and a melting point of 30-33 ℃; slightly soluble in water and easily soluble in organic solvents.
Further, ethylene carbonate is used as a solvent of the electrolyte, and a component existing in a large amount in the electrolyte; even if the amount of the additive is large, the electrolyte is dissolved therein, and thus the battery performance is hardly affected. 1,3-propane sultone is also commonly added as an additive to an electrolyte, and similarly, does not affect battery performance after it is dissolved into the electrolyte.
In one embodiment, the additive comprises 0.2% -1% by weight of the active layer. For example, 0.2%, 0.5%, 0.8%, 1.0% and the like are possible.
