Ranges that are defined in this way can be inclusive or exclusive of the endpoints, and any combination can be made, i.e., any lower limit can be combined with any upper limit to form a range. For example, if ranges of 60-120 and 80-110 are listed for a particular parameter, it is understood that ranges of 60-110 and 80-120 are also contemplated. Furthermore, if the minimum range values 1 and 2 are listed, and if the maximum range values 3,4 and 5 are listed, the following ranges are all contemplated: 1-3, 1-4, 1-5, 2-3, 2-4 and 2-5. In the present application, unless otherwise indicated, the numerical range "a-b" represents a shorthand representation of any combination of real numbers between a and b, where a and b are both real numbers. For example, the numerical range "0-5" means that all real numbers between "0-5" have been listed throughout, and "0-5" is simply a shorthand representation of a combination of these values. When a certain parameter is expressed as an integer of 2 or more, it is disclosed that the parameter is, for example, an integer of 2, 3,4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12 or the like.
All embodiments of the application and alternative embodiments may be combined with each other to form new solutions, unless otherwise specified.
All technical features and optional technical features of the application may be combined with each other to form new technical solutions, unless specified otherwise.
All the steps of the present application may be performed sequentially or randomly, preferably sequentially, unless otherwise specified.

In the related art, in order to increase the energy density of the battery, one means that may be adopted is to thick coat an active material coating on the electrode sheet to achieve a high load amount, thereby increasing the amount of active material per unit area of the negative electrode sheet. However, when preparing an active material coating, the thicker the coating, the higher the density, the greater the internal stress, resulting in a coating with a greater elastic modulus, and a stress build-up that is not uniformly releasable, resulting in a crack in the pole piece. When the coating thickness of the pole piece is increased, the evaporation of water in the pole piece drying process can also cause local accumulation and release of the internal stress of the pole piece, and the pole piece is easy to crack, so that the pole piece has low quality and low rate, and the assembled battery cell also has lithium precipitation risk.
Aiming at the problems, the prior solution is to add a plasticizer to improve the flexibility of the pole piece in the process of preparing the negative electrode slurry. However, this method has some disadvantages and risks, such as the need for additional addition of a delivery pipe; excessive addition can deteriorate the electrical performance of the cell; in the high-speed thick coating process, part of the plasticizer has strong hydrophilicity, the residual quantity of small plasticizer molecules in the pole piece is high, the performance of the battery cell can be deteriorated, and meanwhile, the dryness of the pole piece can not be ensured; the addition of the plasticizer also reduces the content of the anode active material in the anode slurry.
Based on the above, the application provides an adhesive and a preparation method thereof, a negative electrode plate, a battery and an electric device. The present application and alternative embodiments are described in more detail below.

The side chain of the binder in the embodiment of the application comprises at least one polar group of carboxyl, ester, amido and cyano. Although the mechanism is not yet clear, in the process of coating the anode slurry including the binder of the embodiment of the present application on the anode current collector, the binder itself undergoes thermal crosslinking to form a uniform network as schematically shown in fig. 1, while more contact sites can be provided on the surface of the active material. The polar groups of these contact sites are capable of forming reversible hydrogen bonds of different bond energies with the hydroxyl, carboxyl groups of stabilizers such as CMC-Na (fig. 2), greatly reducing the likelihood of strong hydrogen bonds of large bond energies, non-rotatable (fig. 2) between stabilizers such as CMC-Na. Meanwhile, the polar groups on the side chains of the binder form hydrogen bonds with different bond energies together with each other (figure 2). In the process of pole piece drying, weak hydrogen bonds with low bond energy can be broken due to local accumulation of drying stress, healing is achieved after stress release, and strong hydrogen bonds with high bond energy are not easy to break, so that the integral structure of the pole piece is maintained.
The structural unit represented by formula (I) is derived from a rigid monomer, and can keep a good space expansion structure of the adhesive, so that excessive deformation of a molecular chain during the drying process of the pole piece can not happen to adversely affect cohesive force. The cohesive force of the adhesive and thus the cohesive force of the pole piece can be enhanced by including the structural unit represented by formula (I).
The structural unit represented by formula (II) includes a carboxyl group. The structural unit represented by formula (IV), the structural unit represented by formula (V), or the structural unit represented by formula (VI) includes an ester group, an amide group, and a cyano group, respectively. The polar groups included in these structural units are capable of forming reversible hydrogen bonds with the stabilizer in the slurry or hydrogen bonds with different bond energies from each other. These hydrogen bonds facilitate uniform release of the stress build-up of the pole piece during the pole piece drying process.
In addition, in the pole piece drying process, siloxane in the structural unit represented by the formula (III) is hydrolyzed and condensed to generate Si-O-Si bonds, so that on one hand, the linear structure is crosslinked into a body type structure, and on the other hand, the Si-O bonds can rotate by 360 degrees, and the stress accumulation in the pole piece drying process is reduced.
Thus, the adhesive in the embodiment of the application has enhanced adhesive force through the combined action of the structural unit represented by the formula (I) and the structural unit represented by the formula (II) and the structural unit represented by the formula (III), and at least one selected from the structural unit represented by the formula (IV), the structural unit represented by the formula (V) and the structural unit represented by the formula (VI), can reduce or eliminate stress accumulation in the pole piece, improve the flexibility of the pole piece, prevent the pole piece from cracking during thick coating, and increase the single-sided coating quality of the negative electrode slurry in unit area on the pole piece.

In some embodiments, in the polymer, the mass percent of structural units represented by formula (I) is 4.5% -8%, alternatively 5% -7.5%, alternatively 5.5% -7.0%, alternatively 6.0% -6.5%; the mass percentage of the structural unit represented by the formula (II) is 12% -21%, optionally 14% -20%, optionally 15% -19%, optionally 16% -18%; the mass percentage of the structural unit represented by the formula (III) is 3% -6.5%, optionally 3.5% -6%, optionally 4% -5%; and 68 to 77% by mass, optionally 69 to 76% by mass, optionally 70 to 75% by mass, optionally 71 to 74% by mass of at least one selected from the structural unit represented by formula (IV), the structural unit represented by formula (V) and the structural unit represented by formula (VI).

The pole piece is too soft, so that the cohesive force is insufficient, the pole piece is large in rebound, the pole piece is too hard, and the pole piece is easy to crack.
