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 first aspect of the present invention provides a negative electrode sheet comprising a current collector 5 having a mesh structure, a negative electrode active layer substrate 4, and a surface negative electrode active layer 2; the negative electrode active layer matrix 4 is at least partially filled inside the mesh structure 6; the surface negative electrode active layer 2 is provided on the outer surface of the negative electrode active layer substrate 4 and/or the outer surface of the current collector 5;
the negative electrode active layer matrix 4 comprises a first graphite material 3, the surface negative electrode active layer 2 comprises a second graphite material 1, and the graphitization degree of the second graphite material 1 is smaller than that of the first graphite material 3;
the graphitization degree of the first graphite material is not less than 90%, and/or the graphitization degree of the second graphite material is not less than 90%.
It is understood that, for the current collector 5, the region defined by the outer periphery thereof has two outer surfaces disposed opposite to each other in the thickness direction and having the largest area. In one embodiment, the negative electrode active layer matrix 4 is entirely filled inside the mesh structure 6, and the surface negative electrode active layers 2 are covered on both outer surfaces of the current collector 5, as shown in fig. 1.
The first graphite material 3 and the second graphite material 1 of the present invention may be obtained by using commercially available products known to those skilled in the art or products prepared by a conventional preparation method, preferably, by subjecting the graphite materials to heat treatment, and in particular, different graphitization degrees may be achieved using different kinds of graphite material raw materials or different heat treatment temperatures.
The negative electrode sheet comprises a negative electrode active layer substrate 4 and a surface negative electrode active layer 2, wherein the graphitization degree of a first graphite material 3 contained in the negative electrode active layer substrate 4 is larger than that of a second graphite material 1 contained in the surface negative electrode active layer 2, and the higher the graphitization degree is, the softer the graphite material is. Therefore, according to the invention, at least part of the negative electrode active layer matrix 4 is filled in the current collector 5, the surface negative electrode active layer 2 is arranged on the outer surface of the negative electrode active layer matrix 4, and/or the outer surface of the current collector 5, the first graphite material 3 with softer material at the bottom layer is easy to compact in the rolling or pressing process of the negative electrode plate, the porosity of the negative electrode active layer matrix 4 is reduced, the second graphite material 1 with harder material at the surface layer is not easy to compact, and the porosity of the surface negative electrode active layer 2 is improved, so that the porosities of the surface negative electrode active layer 2 and the negative electrode active layer matrix 4 in the negative electrode plate tend to be consistent after rolling or pressing. In the charging process, lithium ions in the electrolyte can easily enter the cathode active layer from the surface cathode active layer 2, and timely combine with electrons to generate lithium intercalation reaction, so that the quick charge performance of the battery is improved. Meanwhile, the higher the graphitization degree is, the higher the capacity is, the graphitization degree of the first graphite material 3 is not lower than 90%, and/or the graphitization degree of the second graphite material 1 is not lower than 90%, so that the negative electrode plate has higher capacity, and the energy density of the battery can be effectively improved.
In addition, the current collector 5 in the negative plate is of a net structure, and the bearing capacity of the negative active material in the negative plate is increased on the premise of not changing the thickness of the negative plate, so that the energy density of the battery can be improved, and the weight of the battery can be reduced; meanwhile, the negative electrode active layer matrix 4 is firmly networked in the network structure of the current collector 5, the contact area between the negative electrode active matrix 4 and the current collector 5 is increased, higher peeling strength can be realized by using a lower-dosage non-negative electrode active material, the expansion of a battery caused by falling of the negative electrode active layer is avoided, the cycle performance of the battery is improved, the impedance of a negative electrode sheet is effectively reduced, and the quick charge performance of the battery is further improved; meanwhile, because the special structure of the negative plate can enable lithium ions to enter the negative active layer more easily, lithium ions are not easy to accumulate on the surface of the negative plate during charging, and therefore the problem of lithium precipitation of the negative electrode of the battery can be solved.
In addition to the anode active layer substrates 4 shown in fig. 1 each being filled in the mesh structure 6, a part of the anode active layer substrates 4 may be disposed on the outer surface of the current collector. That is, the anode active layer includes a portion filled inside the mesh structure 6, and also includes a portion provided outside the mesh structure.
Specifically, the anode active layer substrate 4 includes a first anode active layer substrate 7 and a second anode active layer substrate 8, the first anode active layer substrate 7 is filled inside the mesh structure 6, and the second anode active layer substrate 8 covers at least part of the surface of the current collector 5.

In another embodiment, the first anode active layer substrate 7 is filled inside the mesh structure 6, the second anode active layer substrate 8 covers part of the outer surface of the current collector 5, and the surface anode active layer 2 covers the surface of the second anode active layer substrate 4 and the outer surface of the current collector 5, as shown in fig. 3.
When the second negative electrode active layer substrate 8 covers at least part of the surface of the current collector 5, the content of the first graphite material 3 in the negative electrode sheet can be increased, thereby further increasing the battery energy density.
In one embodiment, the graphitization degree of the first graphite material 3 is 93 to 95%; the graphitization degree of the second graphite material 1 is 90-92%; the first graphite material comprises at least one of artificial graphite and natural graphite; the second graphite material includes at least one of artificial graphite and natural graphite. In this range, the first graphite material 3 and the second graphite material 1 have better capacities, so that the energy density of the battery is further improved, and meanwhile, the first graphite material 3 and the second graphite material 1 have proper hardness differences, so that the surface negative electrode active layer 2 and the negative electrode active layer matrix 4 form better porosities, and the quick charge performance of the battery is improved. When the two types of substances are respectively a mixture of a plurality of specific substances, the proportion of each specific substance is not excessively limited.
In one embodiment, the first graphite material 3 has a capacity of not less than 348mAh/g. In this range, the lithium ion battery including the negative electrode sheet has a higher energy density.
In one embodiment, the first graphite material 3 has a powder compaction density of not less than 1.75g/cm 3 . When the powder compaction density of the first graphite material 3 is in the above range, the energy density of the lithium ion battery can be further improved, and meanwhile, the lithium ion battery can also have a better porosity, so that the migration of lithium ions in the anode active layer is not hindered, and the quick charge performance of the battery is further improved.
In one embodiment, the capacity of the second graphite material 1 is not less than 335mAh/g. In this range, the energy density of the lithium ion battery including the negative electrode sheet can be further improved.
In one embodiment, the second graphite material 1 has a powder compaction density of not less than 1.65g/cm 3 . When the powder compacted density of the second graphite material 1 is in the above rangeThe surface negative electrode active layer 2 has higher porosity, reduces the resistance of lithium ions to be inserted into the negative electrode, ensures that the lithium ions can be quickly inserted into the negative electrode under high-rate charging, and further improves the quick charging performance of the battery.
In one embodiment, the first graphite material 3 has a capacity of not less than 358mAh/g. In this range, the energy density of the lithium ion battery can be further improved.
In one embodiment, the first graphite material 3 has a powder compaction density of not less than 1.95g/cm 3 . In this range, the lithium ion battery including the negative electrode sheet can be made to have a higher energy density without adversely affecting the quick-charge performance of the battery.
In one embodiment, the second graphite material 1 has a powder compaction density of not less than 1.85g/cm 3 . In this range, the energy density of the battery can be further improved on the premise of ensuring that the surface anode active layer 2 has a higher porosity.
In a specific embodiment, the Dv50 of the first graphite material 3 is greater than the Dv50 of the second graphite material 1; the Dv50 of the first graphite material is 10-20 μm and/or the Dv50 of the second graphite material is 5-15 μm. Wherein Dv50 represents the particle size of 50% of the volume accumulation degree. Since the large-particle-diameter first graphite material 3 has a higher capacity and the small-particle-diameter second graphite material 1 can further provide more electrolyte channels, lithium ions are more easily intercalated, and thus when the Dv50 of the first graphite material 3 is greater than that of the second graphite material 1, the energy density and the fast charge performance of the battery can be further improved. When the Dv50 of the first graphite material 3 and/or the second graphite material 1 is in the above range, the first graphite material 3 has not only a higher capacity but also a shorter lithium ion diffusion path, so that it has a better charging capacity; the particle size of the second graphite material 1 is not too small, so that side reactions are reduced, the consumption of lithium ions in the process of forming an SEI film in the first charge and discharge process is reduced, irreversible capacity loss is reduced, and the cycle performance of the battery is improved.
In one embodiment, the current collector 5 comprises a 3D mesh-like skeleton formed by polymer spinning and a metal layer coated on the outer surface of the polymer spinning.
Specifically, polymer spinning in the invention refers to fiber filaments with the diameter of micron, which are generated by high molecular polymers through an electrostatic spinning technology, and form a 3D reticular framework through winding, stacking and other modes. Further, the high molecular polymer comprises at least one of aromatic polyamide, polyimide, polyethylene and polypropylene.
The metal layer in the present invention means that the layer containing the metal composition includes metallic copper or copper alloy.
The metal layer of the present invention is coated on the outer surface of the polymer spinning, and preferably, the polymer spinning is completely coated. The invention is not limited to the coating method of the metal layer, and only the outer surface of the polymer spinning is required to be completely coated. For example, a layer of metallic copper can be coated on the surface of the polymer spinning by a physical vapor deposition process (magnetron sputtering), and then the coating is thickened by electroplating.
The polymer spinning has certain elasticity, and can correspondingly deform along with the expansion and contraction of the first graphite material 3 in the circulation process, so that the current collector 5 and the negative electrode active layer matrix 4 are kept in a good contact state, the negative electrode plate has a good conductive network, and the multiplying power performance of the negative electrode plate is further improved; the outer metal layer serves as an electron channel of the current collector, and makes the current collector 5 exhibit high conductivity, thereby improving electrochemical performance of the battery. In addition, due to the smaller mass of the polymer spinning, the weight reduction of the battery and the further improvement of the energy density can be realized.
In one embodiment, the polymer spinning has a diameter of 3 to 8 μm. In this range, the polymer spinning mechanical strength is high, and breakage is not easy to occur due to expansion deformation of the first graphite material 3 in the circulation process, and the opening ratio is also high, so that the current collector 5 can bear more negative electrode active substances, and the energy density and the circulation performance of the battery are further effectively improved. Specifically, the aperture ratio of the current collector 5 in the present invention is defined by the formula 1:
opening ratio = (a-B)/a 100% formula 1
Wherein A is the apparent volume of the current collector 5, namely the volume of the area surrounded by the outer layer boundary of the current collector 5; b is the volume of the 3D mesh skeleton and metal layer in the current collector 5.
In one embodiment, the metal layer has a thickness of 1 to 3 μm. In this range, the current collector 5 has better flexibility, is not easy to generate current collector stripping phenomenon or polymer spinning fracture due to expansion of graphite materials in the circulation process, improves the battery circulation performance, and can also enable the current collector 5 to have larger opening ratio, so that the current collector can bear more negative electrode active materials, improve the battery energy density, and meanwhile, the current collector 5 also has better conductivity, can promote electron transfer and improve the battery multiplying power performance.
In one embodiment, the thickness of the current collector 5 is 40 to 100 μm. When the thickness of the current collector 5 is less than 40 μm, the processing difficulty is high, breakage during rolling is easy, and the negative electrode sheet including the current collector 5 is low in toughness, breakage during cycling is easy, resulting in degradation of battery cycle performance. In this range, the size of the available space in the current collector 5 can be increased, carrying more negative electrode active material, thereby further increasing the energy density of the battery; meanwhile, when the thickness of the current collector 5 is in the above range, the negative electrode sheet manufactured by the current collector 5 can have stronger toughness and is not easy to break, so that the cycle performance of the lithium ion battery is improved.
The thickness of the current collector 5 in the present invention is measured by measuring the original thickness of the current collector 5 directly prepared by spinning the polymer coated with the metal layer, and the current collector 5 is not subjected to any treatment such as pressing or rolling.
In one embodiment, the opening ratio of the current collector 5 is 45 to 55%. In this range, the current collector 5 can bear more negative electrode active materials, so that the lithium receiving capacity of the negative electrode is remarkably improved, the lithium conducting performance of the battery is effectively improved, and the energy density of the battery is further improved. Specifically, the aperture ratio of the current collector may be made within the above range by changing the diameter of the polymer spinning, and/or the thickness of the metal layer, and/or the solid matter coverage volume in the current collector.
In one embodiment, the breaking elongation of current collector 5 is not less than 1%. In this range, the current collector 5 has high mechanical strength, and can prevent the negative current collector from being damaged or broken when the battery is abused such as needled or extruded, thereby remarkably improving the safety performance of the battery. Meanwhile, corresponding deformation can be generated along with expansion and contraction of the first graphite material 3 in the circulation process, so that the current collector 5 is always in contact with the negative electrode active layer matrix 4, and the current collector has a sufficient conductive network, reduces the internal resistance of the battery and improves the rate capability of the battery. Specifically, the implementation scheme of the breaking elongation of the current collector 5 includes: the opening ratio of the current collector 5 is further limited under the condition that the opening ratio of the current collector 5 is 45% -55%, so that the breaking extensibility of the current collector 5 is in the range; the diameter of the polymer spinning is further limited in the case where the diameter of the polymer spinning is 3 to 8 μm so that the fracture elongation of the negative electrode current collector is achieved to reach the above range.
In one embodiment, the surface negative electrode active layer and the negative electrode active layer matrix further comprise a binder; the mass percentage of the binder included in the surface negative electrode active layer is greater than the mass percentage of the binder included in the negative electrode active layer matrix; the mass percentage of the binder in the surface negative electrode active layer is 1-1.5wt%; and/or the mass percentage of the binder in the negative electrode active layer matrix is not higher than 0.5wt%. When the mass percentage of the binder in the surface anode active layer is in the above range, the surface anode active layer 2 can form higher bonding strength with the current collector 5 and/or the anode active layer matrix 4, so that the anode active layer is not easy to fall off, and the cycle performance of the battery is improved. When the mass percentage of the binder in the negative electrode active layer matrix is in the above range, the current collector has a network structure, so that the amount of the binder in the negative electrode active layer matrix can be reduced, and under the condition of less binder amount, the negative electrode active layer matrix 4 and the current collector 5 can have larger peel strength, thereby effectively improving the energy density of the battery, reducing the internal resistance, improving the multiplying power performance and prolonging the cycle life of the battery.
Further, the binder includes at least one of styrene-butadiene latex, styrene-acrylic latex, polyacrylate copolymer, polymethacrylate, polyvinyl alcohol, polyurethane, polyacrylamide, acrylic acid, and acrylonitrile copolymer.
In one embodiment, the negative electrode active layer 2 is surface-coated, and/or the negative electrode active layer matrix 4 further comprises a dispersant; preferably, the dispersant is contained in the surface anode active layer 2 and/or the anode active layer matrix 4 in an amount of 0.5 to 1wt%. When the dispersant is in the above range, the first graphite material 3 in the anode active layer matrix 4 and/or the second graphite material 1 in the surface anode active layer 2 can be stably dispersed.
Further, the dispersant may be at least one selected from a cellulose dispersant, a polyacrylic dispersant, a polyacrylate dispersant, and a polyacrylamide dispersant.
In one embodiment, the negative electrode active layer 2 is surface-coated, and/or the negative electrode active layer substrate 4 further comprises a conductive agent; preferably, the mass percentage of the conductive agent in the surface anode active layer 2 and/or the anode active layer matrix 4 is 0.05 to 1wt%. In this range, a sufficient conductive network may be formed in the surface anode active layer 2 and/or the anode active layer matrix 4, effectively increasing the rate of movement of electrons and lithium ions in the electrode material, thereby increasing the charge-discharge efficiency of the electrode.
Further, the conductive agent may include at least one of carbon black, carbon nanotubes, graphite, graphene.
The present invention is not limited to the preparation method of the negative electrode sheet, for example, the negative electrode sheet is prepared by a method comprising the following processes:
mixing and stirring the first graphite material 3, a conductive agent, a dispersing agent and a binder to obtain a negative electrode active layer matrix slurry; mixing and stirring the second graphite material 1, a conductive agent, a dispersing agent and a binder to obtain surface negative electrode active layer slurry; and filling the negative electrode active layer matrix slurry in a current collector, or filling and covering at least part of the outer surface of the current collector, drying, coating the surface negative electrode active layer slurry on the outer surface of the current collector, and/or drying, rolling, slitting and tab welding the outer surface of the negative electrode active layer matrix to obtain the negative electrode plate.
The stirring mode is not particularly limited in the present invention, and illustratively, a star stirrer, a ball mill, or a conventional stirring means may be selected.

(1) The lithium ion batteries of examples 1-9 have higher capacity retention rate and rate discharge rate and lower cyclic expansion rate than the lithium ion batteries of comparative examples 1-4, the capacity retention rate can reach 97.05% at the highest, the rate discharge rate is 85.72% at the highest, and the cyclic expansion rate is 5.86% at the lowest; meanwhile, the negative electrode sheets of the examples 1-9 also have higher peeling strength and lower resistance, the peeling strength is at most 24.8N/m, and the resistance is at least 2.45mΩ; moreover, the lithium ion batteries of examples 1 to 9 did not show a lithium precipitation phenomenon after cycling, whereas comparative examples 1 to 4 showed a slight or severe lithium precipitation phenomenon.
(2) In addition, the negative electrode sheet in comparative example 1 showed slight lithium precipitation compared to the negative electrode sheet in example 1, because the conventional current collector is used in comparative example 1, and compared to the net-shaped current collector in the negative electrode sheet of the present invention, the negative electrode sheet having higher compacted density and more compact structure is more easily formed during rolling, migration of lithium ions is hindered to some extent, and lithium ions are accumulated on the surface of the negative electrode sheet during high-rate charging, thereby causing slight lithium precipitation; the comparative example 2 also showed slight lithium precipitation compared with example 1, because the graphite materials in the negative electrode active layer in comparative example 2 are all second graphite materials with harder materials and have no double-layer structure, and the porosity of the surface layer of the negative electrode active layer is lower in the rolling process, so that lithium ions are not easy to combine with electrons in time to react, and slight lithium precipitation occurs; the serious lithium precipitation phenomenon occurs in comparative examples 3 and 4, because the surface layers of the negative electrode active layers in comparative examples 3 and 4 are both made of the first graphite material with a softer material, and the porosity of the surface layers is further reduced during the rolling process, so that the difficulty of lithium ions entering the negative electrode active layers from the surface layers is increased, and the serious lithium precipitation phenomenon occurs.
Finally, it should be noted that: the above embodiments are only for illustrating the technical solution of the present invention, and not for limiting the same; although the invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, it will be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art that: the technical scheme described in the foregoing embodiments can be modified or some or all of the technical features thereof can be replaced by equivalents; such modifications and substitutions do not depart from the spirit of the invention.
