It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for purposes of illustration only and are not intended to limit the present application.
The inventors found that the electrode assembly swells during the charge and discharge of the battery, the extrusion of the corner portions of the electrode assembly is further increased, resulting in insufficient electrolyte at the corner portions, poor impregnation, and easy occurrence of interface deterioration, even cycle failure.
The inventor also found that, in the process of processing the electrode assembly, the positive electrode sheet, the separator and the negative electrode sheet are sequentially laminated and wound for a plurality of turns to form an electrode main body with a plurality of turns of winding units, and by increasing the interval between two adjacent turns of winding units and arranging supporting structures such as salient points, gummed paper and the like to support the two adjacent turns of winding units, the extrusion problem caused by expansion of the electrode assembly can be improved, but the improvement effect is still poor, for example, the salient point structures are arranged on the whole surface of the electrode sheet, the adjacent turns of winding units can be supported, the interface problem of the electrode sheet at the corner part can be improved, and meanwhile, the novel interface problem, the electrolyte shortage and other negative effects can be brought to the straight part.
Based on this, the embodiment of the application provides an electrode assembly and a battery, aiming at the problems of infiltration and pole piece interfaces of different positions and different degrees, the bump distribution design is carried out in the targeted positioning, so that the negative influence on the normal interface part is reduced while the infiltration and interface problems are effectively improved.
As shown in fig. 1, the electrode assembly of the embodiment of the present application includes two electrode sheets 300 having opposite polarities, and a separator 50 provided between the two electrode sheets 300. As shown in fig. 2, which is a schematic front view structure of one of the pole pieces 300 in an unfolded state, the pole pieces 300 have a longitudinal direction X, a width direction Y and a thickness direction Z perpendicular to each other, and the longitudinal direction X, the width direction Y and the thickness direction Z of the two pole pieces 300 with opposite polarities are identical, and the separator 50 is disposed between the two pole pieces 300 with opposite polarities in the thickness direction Z of the pole pieces 300. One of the two pole pieces 300 with opposite polarities is a positive pole piece 301, the other is a negative pole piece 302, and the isolating film 50 has insulation property for separating the positive pole piece 301 and the negative pole piece 302, so as to prevent the positive pole piece 301 and the negative pole piece 302 from being shorted.
In this embodiment, the separator 50 and the two pole pieces 300 are wound for a plurality of turns along the length direction X of the pole pieces 300 to form the electrode body 20, the length direction X of the pole pieces is the winding direction of the pole pieces, and the width direction Y is perpendicular to the length direction X. The electrode body 20 is flat, and each turn of the electrode sheet 300 includes two straight portions 21 and two corner portions 22, the two straight portions 21 being connected between the two corner portions 22. The corner portions 22 of two adjacent turns of pole pieces 300 are easy to squeeze each other, and the straight portion 21 and the corner portions 22 of each turn of pole pieces 300 are also squeezed, so that the corner portions 22 are high-incidence areas where the electrode main body 20 is squeezed, and the problems of insufficient electrolyte and poor infiltration are easy to occur when the corner portions 22 are squeezed, so that the interfaces of the pole pieces 300 of the corner portions 22 are deteriorated, and even the situation of circulation failure occurs.

Thus, after the two pole pieces 300 and the isolating film 50 are wound for a plurality of circles to form the electrode main body 20, the first protruding portions 311 provide support for the isolating film 50 to contact, when the electrode main body 20 expands, the isolating film 50 can still be supported by the first protruding portions 311, and the contact area between the first protruding portions 311 and the isolating film 50 is small, so that a space is reserved between the part of the pole piece 300 corresponding to the salient point area 310 and the isolating film 50 for accommodating electrolyte, and abnormal conditions such as insufficient electrolyte and poor infiltration between the pole piece 300 and the isolating film 50 caused by expansion extrusion are prevented.
When the two pole pieces 300 and the separator 50 are flattened and laminated in the thickness direction Z of the pole pieces 300, the plurality of first protrusions 311 of one pole piece 300 may protrude toward the side where the other pole piece 300 is located, so that after the two pole pieces 300 and the separator 50 are wound in the length direction X of the pole pieces 300, the first protrusions 311 of the pole pieces 300 protrude toward the side where the winding center of the electrode body 20 is located. Alternatively, when the two pole pieces 300 and the separator 50 are flattened and laminated in the thickness direction Z of the pole pieces 300, the plurality of first protrusions 311 of one pole piece 300 may face the first protrusions 311 of the side facing away from the other pole piece 300, so that after the two pole pieces 300 and the separator 50 are wound in the length direction X of the pole pieces 300, the first protrusions 311 of the pole pieces 300 protrude toward the side facing away from the winding center of the electrode body 20. When both pole pieces 300 have the bump areas 310, the first convex portion 311 of either pole piece 300 of both pole pieces 300 is convex toward the side where the other pole piece 300 is located, or the first convex portion 311 of either pole piece 300 of both pole pieces 300 is convex toward the side where the other pole piece 300 is located. The above description is merely exemplary, and the direction of the first protrusion 311 of each pole piece 300 is not limited in this application, and may be specifically selected according to actual needs.

As shown in fig. 2, the end keep-out area 330 is disposed at the end of the bump area 310 in the length direction X of the pole piece 300 and extends to the edge of the pole piece 300, correspondingly, after the two pole pieces 300 and the isolating film 50 are wound, the end keep-out area 330 may be disposed at the innermost turns of the electrode body 20, so as to facilitate the winding formation of the electrode body 20, and facilitate the improvement of the structural stability of the central area of the electrode body 20, or the end keep-out area 330 may be disposed at the outermost turns of the electrode body 20, and the end keep-out area 330 may be used as a buffer area between the first protrusion 311 and the ending end of the electrode body 20, so that the part of the pole piece 300 corresponding to the end keep-out area 330 may more stably bind the inner layer structure of the electrode body 20, thereby facilitating the improvement of the packaging stability of the outer layer area of the electrode body 20, and particularly, when the electrode body 20 has a tendency of expanding, the end keep-out area 330 without the first protrusion 311 is adopted, and the occurrence of the situation that the ending slip of the electrode body 20 due to the expansion stress is prevented, and the stability of the structure of the electrode body 20 is improved.

When the tab assembly 40 is mounted in the tab area 320, the processing manner thereof affects the mounting stability of the tab assembly 40, and affects the stability of the structure around the tab assembly 40, and further affects the stability of the interface of the pole piece 300, for example, when the tab assembly 40 is press-mounted on the pole piece 300 by adopting a rolling manner, the tab assembly 40 and the area provided with the first protrusion 311 are press-bonded together, or the distance between the tab assembly 40 and the first protrusion 311 is too short, the deformation of the first protrusion 311, the occurrence of the indentation, and the like may occur, and further the interface of the pole piece 300 in the area near the tab assembly 40 may be deteriorated. According to the embodiment of the application, the tab area 320 is used for installing the tab assembly 40, so that the tab assembly 40 is convenient to install, the process difficulty is reduced, the installation stability of the tab assembly 40 is improved, the interface stability near the tab assembly 40 is improved, the tab assembly 40 and the first convex part 311 can be dislocated in the thickness direction Z of the pole piece 300, and the improvement of the energy density of a battery is facilitated when the electrode assembly is applied to the battery.

However, the inventors of the present application found that the first protrusions 311 are provided indiscriminately in the respective regions of the pole piece 300, and that the problem of pressing of the corner portions 22 can be improved, but the flat portions 21 are adversely affected, for example, poor local infiltration of the electrolyte, insufficient holding amount of the electrolyte, and the like. According to the embodiment of the application, the tab area 320 and the end portion clearance area 330 are combined, wherein the end portion clearance area 330 is arranged to provide a winding buffer area for winding the electrode main body 20, so that the winding stability of the electrode main body 20 is improved, the occurrence of unstable winding caused by the fact that an area with the first convex portion 311 is a winding starting point or a winding end point is reduced, the flat portion 21 is protected, the tab area 320 is combined, the portion of the electrode main body 20, which is provided with the tab assembly 40, is prevented from expanding to drive the tab assembly 40 to extrude the electrode main body 20, the mutual damage of the tab assembly 40 and the electrode main body 20 is reduced, the tab area 320 extends to the edge of the pole piece 300, the supporting effect exerted by the first convex portion 311 can be continued to the tab area 320, the electrode tab area 320 of the pole piece 300 is not easy to extrude, a part of the area can be reserved for containing electrolyte, the electrolyte can be conveniently put in and put in the electrode main body 20, and the electrolytic infiltration effect is improved. Therefore, in the electrode assembly of the embodiment of the application, not only the interface problem caused by extrusion of the corner portion 22 can be improved, but also the negative problem of the straight portion 21 caused by extrusion can be reduced, and when the electrode assembly is applied to a battery, the performance of the corner position of the battery core can be improved, and the overall cycle performance of the battery is improved.
The end keep-out area 330 in the embodiment of the present application includes at least one of a head keep-out area 331 and a tail keep-out area 332, and the head keep-out area 331 and the tail keep-out area 332 respectively penetrate through the pole piece 300 in the width direction Y of the pole piece 300. In the length direction X of the pole piece 300, a head clearance area 331 is arranged at one end of the bump area 310, and a tail clearance area 332 is arranged at the other end of the bump area 310; the electrode sheet 300 is wound from the head space 331 and the separator 50 along the longitudinal direction X of the electrode sheet 300 to form the flat electrode body 20. When the head clearance area 331 and the ending clearance area 332 need to be selected, the embodiment of the present application prefers that the end clearance area 330 includes the ending clearance area 332, which is more helpful for improving the winding stability of the electrode body 20. More preferably, the end keep-out area 330 includes both the head keep-out area 331 and the ending keep-out area 332, which can more effectively improve the winding stability of the electrode body 20. Alternatively, in the unfolded state of the pole piece 300, the outer contour shape of the head keep-out area 331 is rectangular, and the outer contour shape of the tail keep-out area 332 is rectangular.
As shown in fig. 2, in the length direction X of the pole piece 300, the size of the ending clearance area 332 is D, and D satisfies: d is more than or equal to 30mm and less than or equal to 1000mm. For example, D may be in the range of 30mm, 50mm, 100mm, 150mm, 300mm, 500mm, 1000mm, or any two of these. When the dimension D of the ending clearance area 332 is within the range of 30 mm-1000 mm, the ending clearance area 332 is made to have a suitable length for ending, so that the connection stability of the ending position of the electrode main body 20 is improved, the whole electrode assembly is further made to have good winding stability, the distribution range of the salient points adjacent to the outer ring is made to be suitable, and therefore support is provided for the winding unit positioned on the outer ring, and the extrusion problem of the outer ring of the electrode main body 20 is improved. When D is less than the lower limit of 30mm, the size of the finishing void region 332 is too small, and the distance from the bump in the length direction X of the electrode sheet 300 to the edge of the electrode sheet 300 is too small, so that it is difficult to improve the packaging stability at the finishing of the electrode body 20. When D is greater than the upper limit 1000mm, the size of the ending clearance area 332 is oversized, the occupied area is oversized, the bump distribution area is insufficient, the supporting effect of the first convex part 311 is poor, and the electrolyte infiltration effect of the pole piece 300 of the outer ring is difficult to improve. Preferably, D satisfies: d is more than or equal to 100mm and less than or equal to 500mm.
In the length direction X of the pole piece 300, the size of the head keep-out area 331 is a, and a satisfies: 30 mm.ltoreq.A.ltoreq.1000 mm, for example, A may be in the range of 30mm, 50mm, 100mm, 200mm, 1000mm or any two thereof. When the size A of the head keep-out area 331 is in the range of 30 mm-1000 mm, the distribution range of the salient point area 310 is suitable, the first convex part 311 positioned at the inner ring can better play a supporting role, the electrolyte infiltration effect of the inner ring of the electrode main body 20 is improved, meanwhile, the head keep-out area 331 and the ending keep-out area 332 are matched conveniently, and the head keep-out area 331 and the ending keep-out area 332 have a proper interval for setting the salient point area 310, so that the distribution range of the salient point area 310 is suitable, and the extrusion problem is better improved. When A is less than the lower limit of 30mm, the head keep-out area 331 is too short in size, which is inconvenient for aligning the ends of the two pole pieces 300 and the isolation film 50. When a is greater than the upper limit 1000mm, the head keep-out area 331 is excessively long, occupies a large area, and causes insufficient supporting force of the inner ring of the electrode main body 20, so that abnormal conditions such as insufficient electrolyte infiltration of the inner ring of the electrode main body 20 are easily caused. Preferably, a satisfies: a is more than or equal to 60mm and less than or equal to 500mm.
The bump area 310 is disposed at a distance from the edge of the pole piece 300 in the width direction Y of the pole piece 300, as shown in fig. 3 and 4, in the width direction Y of the pole piece 300, the pole piece 300 has a first area 341 connected to one side of the bump area 310, a second area 342 connected to the other side of the bump area 310, and the first area 341 extends to the edge of the pole piece 300 in a direction away from the second area 342, and the second area 342 extends to the edge of the pole piece 300 in a direction away from the first area 341, that is, two opposite boundaries of the bump area 310 in the width direction Y of the pole piece 300 are respectively spaced from the corresponding edges of the pole piece 300.
The shortest distance between the bump area 310 and the edge of the electrode sheet 300 coated with the active material layer in the width direction Y is T1, and T1 satisfies: t1 is 0.5 mm.ltoreq.T1.ltoreq.30mm, for example T1 may be in the range of 0.5mm, 1mm, 2mm, 10mm, 15mm, 20mm, 30mm or any two of these. When T1 is less than the lower limit of 0.5mm, the bump area 310 is too close to the edge of the pole piece 300 coated with the active material layer, which will easily cause deformation of the first protruding portion 311 due to extrusion, in addition, due to the stress existing after the first protruding portion 311 is processed, the width of the area reserved at the edge of the bump area 310, where the first protruding portion 311 is not provided, is too narrow, and the pole piece 300 in the edge area is easy to have abnormal structures such as bending, rugged, and wavy edges due to the stress, which affects the accuracy of monitoring and positioning of the pole piece 300 in the winding process. When T1 is greater than the upper limit of 30mm, the bump area 310 is too far from the edge of the electrode sheet 300 coated with the active material layer, the distribution area of the first protrusions 311 is too small, and the supporting force is insufficient. Preferably, T1 satisfies: t1 is more than or equal to 1mm and less than or equal to 30mm. More preferably, T1 satisfies: t1 is more than or equal to 3mm and less than or equal to 30mm. The tab area 320 is attached with the protective adhesive 200, and in the tab area 320, positions other than the tab 100 are coated with active material layers, and other areas of the pole piece 300 are coated with active material layers. The active material layer of the pole piece 300 is arranged on the surface of the current collector, and covers the whole surface of the current collector in the thickness direction of the pole piece 300; in other embodiments, the current collector comprises a coating part and an empty foil part, the empty foil part is connected to the outer side of the coating part in the width direction Y of the pole piece 300, the active material layer covers the surface of the whole coating part and avoids the surface of the empty foil part, and the design can better reduce lithium precipitation, reduce the influence of cold pressing on the deformation of the battery core and improve the safety performance of the battery.
Specifically, pole piece 300 has a first edge 3411 and a second edge 3421 disposed opposite each other in the width direction Y of pole piece 300, bump area 310 has a first boundary 3101 and a second boundary 3102 disposed opposite each other in the width direction Y of pole piece 300, first region 341 is formed between first edge 3411 and first boundary 3101, and second region 342 is formed between second edge 3421 and second boundary 3102. In the width direction Y of the pole piece 300, the distance between the first edge 3411 and the first boundary 3101 is the width T11 of the first region 341 in the width direction Y of the pole piece 300, and the distance between the second edge 3421 and the second boundary 3102 is the width T12 of the second region 342 in the width direction Y of the pole piece 300. When the tab 300 has the first region 341 and the second region 342, the distance T1 of the bump region 310 from the edge of the active material layer in the width direction Y of the tab 300 includes T11 and T12, T11 satisfies: t11 is more than or equal to 0.5mm and less than or equal to 30mm, and T12 meets the following conditions: 0.5mm is less than or equal to T12 is less than or equal to 30mm, wherein the difference between the width T11 of the first region 341 in the width direction Y of the pole piece 300 and the width T12 of the second region 342 in the width direction Y of the pole piece 300 is DeltaT 1, deltaT 1= |T11-T12|, and DeltaT 1 satisfies: when the range is satisfied, the migration rate of lithium ions can be enabled to satisfy a proper range in the high-rate charge and discharge test process, and the high-low temperature cycle performance of the battery is improved.
In addition, the tab assembly 40 and the bump area 310 are also disposed at intervals, so that the first protrusion 311 is conveniently processed on the pole piece 300, and the tab assembly 40 is conveniently mounted on the tab area 320 of the pole piece 300, and the mounting stability of the tab assembly 40 and the structural stability of the first protrusion 311 are provided.
As shown in fig. 2 and 4, the spacing between the tab assembly 40 and the bump area 310 is T2, wherein the spacing between the tab assembly 40 and the bump area 310 includes a pitch in the length direction X and a pitch in the width direction Y of the pole piece 300, and the pitch in both directions is T2. T2 satisfies: t2 is 0.5 mm.ltoreq.T2.ltoreq.30mm, for example T2 may be in the range 0.5mm, 1mm, 2mm, 8mm, 10mm, 15mm, 20mm, 30mm or any two thereof. When T2 is in the range of 0.5 mm-30 mm, the distance between the tab assembly 40 and the bump area 310 is proper, so that the support requirement of the first protruding portion 311 on the tab assembly 40 can be met, and the processing can be facilitated. When T2 is smaller than the lower limit 0.5mm, the spacing is too small, and when the tab assembly 40 is mounted on the tab area 320 of the pole piece 300, the structural stability of the first protruding portion 311 is easily affected, and the process difficulty is high. When T2 is greater than the upper limit of 30mm, the pitch is excessively large, the tab region 320 occupies a large space, and the region where the first protruding portions 311 are distributed is correspondingly reduced, which easily results in insufficient supporting force of the first protruding portions 311 distributed in the bump region 310.
The tab assembly 40 includes a plurality of tabs 100, wherein a portion of the tabs 100 are mounted on one of the pole pieces 300, and another portion of the tabs 100 are mounted on the other pole piece 300, wherein the tab 100 mounted on the positive pole piece 301 is a positive tab, and the tab 100 mounted on the negative pole piece 302 is a negative tab.

Alternatively, when only one of the two pole pieces 300 having opposite polarities has the bump area 310, the tab area 320 and the end void area 330, one of the tabs 100 is disposed corresponding to the tab area 320 of one of the pole pieces 300, and the other tab 100 is directly mounted on the edge area of the other pole piece 300. Alternatively, when two pole pieces 300 with opposite polarities have the bump area 310, the tab area 320 and the end void area 330, one part of the tabs 100 is disposed corresponding to the tab area 320 of one of the pole pieces 300, and the other part of the tabs 100 is disposed corresponding to the tab area 320 of one of the pole pieces 300. It should be noted that, after the separator 50 and the two pole pieces 300 are wound to form the flat electrode body 20, the tab 100 mounted on one of the pole pieces 300 is required to be spaced from the tab 100 mounted on the other pole piece 300 to prevent shorting of the two pole pieces 300 with opposite polarities.
Optionally, as shown in fig. 5, the tab 100 includes a connection section connected to the pole piece 300 and a butt section extending out of the edge of the pole piece 300, where a surface of the connection section facing away from the pole piece is convexly provided with a plurality of second protrusions 110, and the second protrusions 110 provide support for the structure at the tab 100, for example, the second protrusions 110 contact with the isolation film 50 to provide support for the isolation film 50, so as to improve the electrolyte wetting effect at the tab 100. Further, the boundary of the region where the tab 100 is provided with the plurality of second protrusions 110 is flush with the second boundary 3102 of the bump region 310. Wherein, the shape, size and arrangement of both the second convex portion 110 and the first convex portion 311 may be set to be the same.

Optionally, the tab assembly 40 further includes a plurality of protective adhesives 200, and after the separator 50 and the two electrode plates 300 are wound to form the flat electrode body 20, each protective adhesive 200 is attached to the surface of the negative electrode tab, so as to separate the positive electrode plate from the negative electrode tab and prevent lithium from being separated around the negative electrode tab.
Alternatively, all the protective adhesives 200 are mounted to the same pole piece 300, for example, all the protective adhesives 200 are mounted to the same pole piece 300 having the bump area 310, the tab area 320, and the end void area 330, or all the protective adhesives 200 are mounted to one of the pole pieces 300 where the bump area 310, the tab area 320, and the end void area 330 are not provided. Or, a part of the protective adhesive 200 is mounted on one of the pole pieces 300, and another part of the protective adhesive 200 is mounted on the other pole piece 300. When the protective adhesive 200 is mounted on the pole piece 300 having the bump area 310, the tab area 320 and the end clearance area 330, each protective adhesive 200 is mounted on one of the tab areas 320.

Alternatively, as shown in fig. 2, in the width direction Y of the pole piece 300, the pole piece 300 has a first region 341 connected to one side of the bump region 310, and a tab region 320 connected to the other side of the bump region 310, that is, in this case, the pole piece 300 is not provided with a second region 342, and at this time, the width T11 of the first region 341 in the width direction Y of the pole piece 300 is the distance T1 between the bump region 310 and the edge of the width direction Y of the pole piece 300. In the width direction Y of the pole piece 300, the width of the tab area 320 is W1, T1< W1, in this case, the width of the tab area 320 is wider, so that the contact area of the tab assembly 40 mounted on the pole piece 300 is conveniently increased, and the mounting stability of the tab assembly 40 is improved. Further, W1 satisfies: w1 is 2 mm.ltoreq.W1 is 40mm, for example, W1 may be 2mm, 6mm, 10mm, 15mm, 28mm, 30mm, 40mm or a range of any two of these.

In this way, the areas on both sides of the bump area 310 are fully utilized for mounting the tab assembly 40, so that more areas are designed for arranging the first protruding portion 311, the supporting area of the first protruding portion 311 is increased, and the supporting stability of the first protruding portion 311 is further improved.

In table 1, examples 1-1 to 1-21 employ the electrode sheet 300 shown in fig. 4 as the positive electrode sheet 300. The relevant parameters in examples 1-1 to 1-21 are shown in Table I.
TABLE I
Comparative examples 1-1 to 1-3, examples 1-2 to 1-21 are different from example 1-1 in that the spacing T1 between the tab region 310 and the edge of the pole piece, the spacing T21 between the tab and the tab region 310, and the spacing T22 between the protective paste and the tab region 310 of the lithium ion battery are different (here, the spacing T2 between the tab and the tab region 310 of the lithium ion battery is denoted as T21, and the spacing T2 between the protective paste and the tab region 310 is denoted as T22 for convenience of description), and the parameters and performance test results of the lithium ion batteries in comparative examples 1-1 to 1-3, examples 1-1 to 1-21 are shown in table 1.
TABLE 1
As can be seen from comparative examples 1-1 to 1-3, examples 1-1 to 1-9 in table 1, the spacing T1 of the bump area 310 from the edge of the pole piece 300 satisfies: t1 is more than or equal to 0.5mm and less than or equal to 30mm, the flatness of the edge of the pole piece 300 is good, the normal temperature and high temperature cycle performance of the lithium ion battery is improved, and the high-rate charge and discharge performance is improved very high. In addition, the winding rate in the actual production process is improved. When T1 is less than the lower limit of 0.5mm, since the first protrusion 311 is too close to the edge of the electrode sheet 300, when the first protrusion 311 is rolled on the electrode sheet 300, the edge of the electrode sheet 300 is liable to be wavy curled due to rolling stress, flatness is poor, and cycle performance of the lithium ion battery is lowered. When T1 is greater than the upper limit 30mm, the area of the bump region 310 is too small, and the effective supporting area of the first protrusion 311 provided in the bump region 310 is insufficient, resulting in insufficient electrolyte channels of the lithium ion battery, poor high-temperature and normal-temperature cycle performance improvement effects, inability to improve high-current charge and discharge performance, and adverse effects on the winding rate.
As can be seen from examples 1-10 to 1-15 in table 1, the spacing T21 between the tab 100 and the bump area 310 is 1mm to 30mm, the normal temperature and high temperature cycle performance of the lithium ion battery is improved, and the high-rate charge and discharge performance is improved. In addition, the winding rate in the actual production process is improved.
According to examples 1-16 to 1-21 in table 1, it can be seen that the distance T22 between the protective paste and the bump area 310 is 0.5 mm-30 mm, the normal temperature and high temperature cycle performance of the lithium ion battery is improved, and the high-rate charge and discharge performance is improved. In addition, the winding rate in the actual production process is improved.
In table 2, comparative examples 2-1 to 2-2, examples 1-4, examples 2-1 to 2-12 employ the electrode sheet 300 shown in fig. 4 as the positive electrode sheet 300. Examples 2-1 to 2-12 are different from examples 1-4 in that the dimension W1 of the tab region in the pole piece width direction Y and the dimension of the tab region in the pole piece length direction X are different, the spacing T21 between the tab and the bump region and the spacing T22 between the protective paste and the bump region are equal and each 4mm, and the parameters and performance test results of the lithium ion batteries in comparative examples 2-1 to 2, examples 1-4, and examples 2-1 to 2-12 are shown in table 2.
TABLE 2
As can be seen from comparative examples 2-1 to 2, examples 1-4, and examples 2-1 to 2-7 in table 2, in the present example, the pole piece 300 is provided with the bump region 310 and the end void region 330, which can effectively improve the normal temperature cycle and the high temperature cycle performance of the lithium ion battery.
Among them, according to examples 2-12, comparative examples 1-1 and comparative examples 1-2, when the pole piece 300 has the head keep-out area 331 and the ending keep-out area 332, there is substantially no influence on the winding rate, and when the opposite head keep-out area 331 and ending keep-out area 332 are eliminated, the winding rate is greatly reduced.
According to comparative examples 2-1 to 2, examples 1-4, and examples 2-1 to 2-12, it can be seen that the provision of the electrode tab 300 having the bump region 310, the tab region 320, and the end void region 330 can also improve the cycle performance of the lithium ion battery at normal and high temperatures. This is effected by the proper arrangement of tab region 320 and end keep-out region 330. The tab area 320 is properly arranged in the dimension W1 of the width direction Y of the pole piece 300, so that the bump area 310 can avoid the positions of the tab and the impregnated gummed paper, and the damage interface of the tab and the gummed paper is prevented from being deteriorated; the size W3 of the tab area 320 in the length direction X of the pole piece 300 is reasonable, the area occupation ratio of the bump area 310 can be large enough, the improvement on the cycle performance of the lithium ion battery is more remarkable, both W1 and W3 are reasonably arranged at the same time, the area occupation ratio of the bump area 310 is large enough while avoiding the positions of the tab and the impregnated gummed paper, and the improvement effect on the cycle performance at high temperature and normal temperature is optimal.
From examples 1-4, examples 2-1 to 2-3, examples 2-9 to 2-12, comparative examples 2-1 to 2-2, it can be seen that the dimension W1 of the tab region 320 in the length direction X of the pole piece 300 satisfies: w1 is less than or equal to 2mm and less than or equal to 40mm, the cycle performance of the lithium ion battery can be improved, and the improvement of the 2C high-rate charge-discharge cycle is more remarkable, and the main reason is that the reasonable arrangement of W1 can improve the interface, and meanwhile, the electrode lugs can be avoided, and the damage to the electrode lugs is reduced. When W1 is larger than the upper limit of 40mm, the electrode lugs are avoided, but the avoiding interval is too large, the area of the salient point area is reduced, so that poor improvement effect on the interface is weakened, and the final cycle performance falls back;
as can be seen from examples 2-4 to 2-7, examples 2-10 to 2-12, comparative examples 2-1 to 2-2, the dimension W3 of the tab region 320 in the length direction X of the pole piece 300 satisfies: w3 is more than or equal to 10mm and less than or equal to 50mm, the normal temperature cycle performance and the high temperature of the lithium ion battery can be improved, and the improvement effect is more obvious under the 2C high-rate charge-discharge cycle condition. When W3 is larger than the upper limit of 50mm, the improvement effect of the areas on the two sides of the lug is weakened due to the fact that the distance between the salient point area and the lug area is too large, and therefore the circulation performance is influenced.
In table 3, examples 3-1 to 3-12 employ the electrode sheet 300 shown in fig. 4 as the positive electrode sheet 300. Examples 3-1 to 3-12 are different from examples 1-2 in that the size a of the head clearance area and the size D of the tail clearance area of the lithium ion battery are different, and the parameters and performance test results of the lithium ion batteries in examples 3-1 to 3-12 are shown in table 3.
TABLE 3 Table 3
As can be seen from examples 3-1 to 3-4 and examples 3-9 to 3-10 in table 3, the size a of the head space area 331 satisfies: a is more than or equal to 30mm and less than or equal to 1000mm, has less influence on winding rate and improves the normal temperature cycle performance and the high temperature cycle performance of the battery under high-rate current density. When A is smaller than the lower limit by 30mm, the winding feeding precision can be affected, when A is larger than the upper limit by 1000mm, the avoiding area is overlarge, the area occupied ratio of the salient point area is reduced, and the circulation improvement effect is reduced. Preferably, a satisfies: a is more than or equal to 60mm and less than or equal to 500mm.
From examples 3-5 to 3-8, and examples 3-11 to 3-12 in Table 3, it can be seen that the dimension D of the finish void region 332 satisfies: d is more than or equal to 30mm and less than or equal to 1000mm, the influence on the winding rate of the lithium ion battery is relatively small, and the normal temperature cycle performance and the high temperature cycle performance under the current density of 5C are improved. When D is lower than the lower limit of 30mm, the winding ending precision is affected, and the winding quality is insufficient. When D is higher than the upper limit of 1000mm, the cycle performance of the lithium ion battery can be reduced and fall back, because when D is too large, the salient points are added to the interface area of the original straight part of the tail part, so that the interlayer spacing of the original straight part is too large, the lithium ion transmission path is increased, the efficiency is reduced, the lithium intercalation is insufficient, and finally the cycle performance is influenced.
In table 4, the electrode sheet 300 shown in fig. 7 was used as the positive electrode sheet 300 in examples 4-1 to 4-8, W6 was the size of the bump area at each turn of the electrode sheet, and the size of the bump area at each turn of the electrode sheet was equal, and the parameters and performance test results of the lithium ion batteries in examples 4-1 to 4-8 and examples 1-4 are shown in table 4. The dimensions A of the head void region, the dimension D of the tail void region, and the spacing T1 between the bump region and the edge of the pole piece in examples 4-1 to 4-8 are the same as those in examples 1-4.
TABLE 4 Table 4
In Table 5, the pole piece 300 shown in FIG. 8 was used as the positive pole piece 300 in examples 5-1 to 5-9, and the size A of the head clearance area, the size D of the tail clearance area, and the spacing T1 between the bump area and the edge of the pole piece in examples 5-1 to 5-9 were the same as those in examples 1-4. The parameters and performance test results of the lithium ion batteries in comparative example 5-1, example 5-1 to example 5-9 are shown in table 5. In fig. 8, the size W6 of the bump area gradually increases from the inner ring to the outer ring, W6 in table 5 is the size of the bump area of the pole piece of the outermost ring, wherein the size W6 (i) of the bump area of the ith ring is sequentially calculated from the outside to the inside according to the following formula:
W6(i)=W6-(i*t*π)
wherein i is the number of layers of the electrode assembly from outside to inside;
t is the thickness of the pole piece of 0.12mm;
w6 (i) less than 0 indicates that the layer is not bumped.
TABLE 5
As can be seen from the embodiments in tables 4 and 5, when the bump areas 310 are disposed corresponding to the corner portions 22, and the sizes of the respective bump areas 310 of the pole piece 300 in the length direction X of the pole piece 300 are equal or approximately equal, the size W6 of the bump areas 310 in the length direction X of the pole piece 300 satisfies: w6 is more than or equal to 0.5mm and less than or equal to 100m, and the electrolyte holding quantity and the electrolyte infiltration effect of the lithium ion battery are improved.
When W6 is too small, the size of the bump area 310 in the length direction X of the pole piece 300 is too small, the area occupation ratio of the bump area 310 is greatly reduced, the extrusion of the battery core cannot be effectively supported, the electrolyte channel is blocked, and the circulation performance is reduced.
When W6 is greater than the upper limit of 100mm, the size of the bump area 310 in the length direction X of the pole piece 300 is too large to cover almost all areas of the pole piece, so that on one hand, the pole ear and the impregnated gummed paper cannot be avoided, the interface between the pole ear and the impregnated gummed paper is deteriorated, and finally the pole piece is spread to the whole pole piece, so that the improvement effect of the cycle performance is greatly weakened, and the weakening of the improvement effect is more remarkable in the test of the high-rate battery cell.
