In the present application, "nitrile solvent" means an organic compound containing an organic group cyano group and being liquid at normal temperature.
As described in the background art above, the nitrile solvent is incompatible with the battery negative electrode, so that the nitrile solvent cannot be used as the main solvent of the electrolyte, and the application of the nitrile solvent in the electrolyte is also affected, so that the problem of incompatibility of the battery negative electrode and the nitrile solvent needs to be improved.
For the above problems, in the related art, the concentration of electrolyte salt in the electrolyte is generally increased, and a large amount of components beneficial to forming a solid electrolyte membrane are added, so that a more stable solid electrolyte membrane is formed, the stability of the interface between the electrolyte and the anode is improved, the corrosion of the nitrile solvent to the anode is slowed down, and the problem that the anode and the nitrile solvent of the battery are incompatible is solved. However, the above method has problems in that the high electrolyte salt concentration and the addition of a large amount of film forming agent raise the viscosity of the electrolyte, resulting in a decrease in ionic conductivity of the electrolyte, and also in that the cost of the electrolyte is greatly increased, and the use of nitrile solvents in the electrolyte is also limited.
Based on the above, the application provides the electrolyte, and the problem that the battery cathode is incompatible with the nitrile solvent can be effectively solved by selecting the nitrile solvent with a specific structure, so that the adverse effect of the nitrile solvent on the battery performance can be reduced. Embodiments of the present application are described in detail below.
Electrolyte solution
In a first aspect, the present application provides an electrolyte comprising: and the organic solvent comprises a nitrile solvent, wherein the ortho-carbon atom of the cyano group in the nitrile solvent is a quaternary carbon atom.
According to the application, the ortho-carbon atom of the cyano group in the nitrile solvent in the electrolyte is a quaternary carbon atom, and the nitrile solvent has higher stability relative to the battery cathode, so that the electrolyte can not only utilize the advantages of high dielectric constant, low viscosity and high flash point of the nitrile solvent, but also reduce the influence on the battery performance due to incompatibility of the nitrile solvent and the battery cathode.
Specifically, the inventor has analyzed that the reason why the negative electrode of the battery in the nitrile solvent in the electrolyte is not compatible is mainly: the negative electrode of the battery shows stronger reducibility in the use process, mainly because substances such as lithium, sodium, lithium intercalation/sodium-carbon compounds and the like exist, cyano groups in the nitrile solvent are strong electron-withdrawing groups, and the strong electron-withdrawing effect of the cyano groups on adjacent carbon atoms can increase the activity of hydrogen atoms connected with the adjacent carbon atoms, so that the reaction with the reducing substances on the negative electrode of the battery is easier, the hydrogen atoms on the adjacent carbon atoms of the cyano groups in the nitrile solvent are removed, and further, the generation of gas (mainly hydrogen) is caused, and the process is accompanied with the consumption of active materials, so that the cycle performance and the charge performance of the battery are reduced, and further, if the nitrile solvent is excessively high in content in electrolyte, the safety accidents such as battery explosion and the like can be possibly caused.
Based on the above findings, the nitrile solvent with cyano group as the quaternary carbon atom is selected, and the quaternary carbon atom is not connected with hydrogen atom, so that the nitrile solvent does not contain hydrogen atom activated by cyano group, and the reaction is not easy to occur, thereby effectively improving the compatibility of the nitrile solvent and the battery cathode and reducing the adverse effect of the nitrile solvent on the battery performance.
In general, the nitrile solvent in the electrolyte does not only dissolve and ionize electrolyte salt, but also can participate in the formation of solid electrolyte membrane, and the electrolyte provided by the application does not require any further action, and the application mainly solves the problem that the nitrile solvent in the electrolyte is not compatible with the negative electrode of the battery.
In some embodiments, the nitrile solvent is present in the organic solvent in an amount of 5% by volume or more; optionally, the nitrile solvent accounts for 10-99% of the organic solvent by volume.
In some embodiments, the nitrile solvent has good compatibility with the battery cathode, so the addition amount of the nitrile solvent in the electrolyte can be unlimited, thereby improving the content of the nitrile solvent in the electrolyte, and when the volume percentage of the nitrile solvent in the organic solvent can be more than 5%, the advantages of high dielectric constant, low viscosity and high flash point of the nitrile solvent can be fully utilized, and the ionic conductivity and the safety performance of the electrolyte can be further improved. For example, the nitrile solvent may be present in the organic solvent in an amount ranging from 5%,10%,15%,20%,25%,30%,35%,40%,45%,50%,55%,60%,65%,70%,75%,80%,85%,90%,95%,99%,100%, or any combination thereof. Preferably, the nitrile solvent accounts for 10-99% of the organic solvent by volume, so that the electrolyte has better ionic conductivity and safety performance.
In some embodiments, the nitrile solvent comprises at least one of a mono-nitrile solvent, a di-nitrile solvent, or a tri-nitrile solvent.
In some embodiments, the nitrile solvent may include, but is not limited to, one cyano group, or may also include two or three cyano groups, and since adjacent carbon atoms of each cyano group are quaternary carbon atoms, the mono-nitrile solvent, the di-nitrile solvent or the tri-nitrile solvent has good compatibility with the battery anode, which can effectively reduce the influence of the nitrile solvent on the battery performance.
Further, the nitrile solvent includes a mono-nitrile solvent. The mono-nitrile solvent generally has a simpler structure and a relatively smaller molecular weight than the di-nitrile solvent or the tri-nitrile solvent, so that the viscosity is relatively smaller and the molecular polarity is relatively larger, thereby having better dissolution ionization performance for the electrolyte salt, being more beneficial to improving the ionic conductivity of the electrolyte, and further improving the performance of the battery. Meanwhile, the cost of the mono-nitrile solvent is relatively low, which is beneficial to reducing the cost of the electrolyte.
In some embodiments, the nitrile solvent comprises a compound of formula I,
Wherein R 1、R2、R3 is each independently represented as a substituent other than H.
In some embodiments, the compound shown in the formula I belongs to a mono-nitrile solvent, and the carbon atom adjacent to the cyano group does not contain unsaturated carbon-carbon bonds besides being connected with hydrogen atoms, so that the compound has relatively higher polarity, has better dissolution ionization effect on electrolyte salt, and can further improve the ionic conductivity of the electrolyte.
Further, R 1、R2、R3 is independently represented by at least one of a C1-C10 substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group, a C6-C30 substituted or unsubstituted aryl group, or a halogen atom. At the moment, the molecular weight of the nitrile solvent is relatively smaller, the viscosity is relatively smaller, the dissolution and ionization effects on electrolyte salt are better, and the ionic conductivity of the electrolyte can be further improved.
For example, the C1-C10 unsubstituted alkyl group may include methyl, ethyl, n-propyl, isopropyl, n-butyl, isobutyl, tert-butyl, n-pentyl, isopentyl, neopentyl, n-hexyl, 2-methylpentyl, 3-methylpentyl, 2, 3-dimethylpentyl, 2-dimethylpentyl, n-heptyl, 2-methylhexyl, 3-dimethylpentyl, 2, 4-dimethylpentyl, 3-ethylpentyl, 2, 3-trimethylbutyl and the like; the C1-C10 substituted alkyl group may include a C1-C10 fluoroalkyl group, and the C1-C10 fluoroalkyl group may include a monofluoromethyl group, a difluoromethyl group, a trifluoromethyl group, a 1-monofluoroethyl group, a1, 1-difluoroethyl group, a1, 1-trifluoroethyl group, a perfluoroethyl group, etc.; the C6-C30 substituted or unsubstituted aryl group includes aromatic compounds containing one to a plurality of benzene rings, the C6-C30 substituted aryl group may include a C6-C30 fluorinated aryl group, and the C6-C30 fluorinated aryl group may be monofluorobenzene, difluorobenzene, trifluorobenzene, tetrafluorobenzene, pentafluorophenyl or the like.
Further, R 1、R2、R3 is independently represented as a C1-C10 substituted or unsubstituted alkyl group. At the moment, the molecular weight of the nitrile solvent is relatively smaller, the viscosity is relatively smaller, the dissolution and ionization effects on electrolyte salt are better, and the ionic conductivity of the electrolyte can be further improved.
Further, R 1、R2、R3 is independently represented by a C1-C5 unsubstituted alkyl group. Since the unsubstituted alkyl group is an electron donating group, when the hydrogen atom on the carbon atom adjacent to the cyano group is completely substituted with the unsubstituted alkyl group, the polarity of the nitrile solvent is larger at this time, and when R 1、R2、R3 is independently represented as a C1 to C5 unsubstituted alkyl group, the molecular weight of the nitrile solvent is smaller, the viscosity is smaller, the dissolution ionization effect on the electrolyte salt is better, and the ionic conductivity of the electrolyte solution can be further improved.
In some embodiments, R 1、R2、R3 is each represented as methyl. At the moment, the nitrile solvent has large polarity, small molecular weight and viscosity, has better dissolution and ionization effects on electrolyte salt, and can further improve the ionic conductivity of the electrolyte.
In some embodiments, the organic solvent further comprises at least one of a chain carbonate, a cyclic carbonate, an ether solvent.
In some embodiments, the performance of the battery can be further improved by the combination of other organic solvents and nitrile solvents, and the chain carbonic ester can participate in the formation of the solid electrolyte membrane, so that the stability of the interface between the electrolyte and the electrode is further improved; the cyclic carbonate can further improve the dissolution and ionization of the electrolyte salt by the solvent and improve the conductivity; the ether solvent can further reduce the viscosity of the electrolyte and improve the wettability of the electrolyte.
Further, the organic solvent further comprises at least one of dimethyl carbonate, diethyl carbonate, methyl ethyl carbonate, ethylene carbonate, fluoroethylene carbonate and vinylene carbonate. The electrolyte thus obtained can further improve the performance of the battery. It will be appreciated that some of the above-mentioned organic solvents may be used as film forming additives, i.e. some of the additives which are liquid at room temperature may be added as organic solvents, which may also include other solvents known in the art, and may be selected by those skilled in the art according to actual needs.
In some embodiments, the concentration of the electrolyte salt in the electrolyte is no greater than 2mol/L.
In some embodiments, the nitrile solvent and the battery cathode have good compatibility, so that no more electrolyte salt is needed to participate in the formation of the solid electrolyte membrane to improve the interface stability of the electrolyte and the electrode, thus the concentration of the electrolyte salt in the electrolyte can be properly reduced to reduce the viscosity of the electrolyte and save the cost of the electrolyte. For example, the concentration of the electrolyte salt in the electrolyte may be 2mol/L、1.8mol/L、1.6mol/L、1.5mol/L、1.4mol/L、1.2mol/L、1mol/L、0.8mol/L、0.6mol/L、0.5mol/L、0.4mol/L、0.2mol/L、0.1mol/L, or any of the values set forth above. Further, the concentration of the electrolyte salt in the electrolyte is not more than 1mol/L, and at this time, the viscosity of the electrolyte is lower and the cost is lower.
The kind of the electrolyte salt in the present application is not particularly limited, and the electrolyte salt may include a lithium salt or a sodium salt. As an example, the lithium salt includes, but is not limited to, at least one of LiPF 6 (lithium hexafluorophosphate), liBF 4 (lithium tetrafluoroborate), liClO 4 (lithium perchlorate), liFSI (lithium bis-fluorosulfonimide), liTFSI (lithium bis-trifluoromethanesulfonyl imide), liTFS (lithium trifluoromethanesulfonate), litfob (lithium difluorooxalato borate), liBOB (lithium dioxaato borate), liPO 2F2 (lithium difluorophosphate), liDODFP (lithium difluorodioxaato phosphate), and LiOTFP (lithium tetrafluorooxalato phosphate). The lithium salts may be used singly or in combination of two or more. As an example, the sodium salt may be selected from at least one of NaPF 6、NaClO4、NaBCl4、NaSO3CF3 and Na (CH 3)C6H4SO3).

For example, the additives may include negative electrode film-forming additives, positive electrode film-forming additives, and may also include additives capable of improving certain properties of the battery, such as additives that improve the overcharge performance of the battery, additives that improve the high or low temperature performance of the battery, and the like.
The electrolyte may be prepared according to a conventional method in the art. For example, the organic solvent, electrolyte salt, and optional additives may be uniformly mixed to obtain the electrolyte. The order of addition of the materials is not particularly limited, and for example, electrolyte salt and optional additives are added into an organic solvent and mixed uniformly to obtain an electrolyte; or adding electrolyte salt into the organic solvent, and then adding optional additives into the organic solvent to be uniformly mixed to obtain the electrolyte.

Electrolyte performance test:
Adopting 2032 button cell configuration and accessories, placing a positive electrode shell, a copper foil with the diameter of 19 mu m, electrolyte, a diaphragm, a lithium sheet with the diameter of 16 mu m, a gasket and a spring sheet in sequence, and assembling the button cell; and tested at a deposition capacity of 1mA/cm 2 current density, 0.5mAh/cm 2, and the coulombic efficiencies of the lithium copper batteries of the electrolytes configured in the examples and comparative examples were counted.
Example 1
Preparation of electrolyte: liFeSI is added into TMAN (trimethylacetonitrile) and FEC (fluoroethylene carbonate) solvents (for example, 1mL of solvent is prepared, the volumes of TMEA and FEC are respectively 0.9mL:0.1 mL) in a volume ratio of 9:1 according to a lithium salt concentration ratio of 1mol/L, and the mixed electrolyte is prepared after uniform stirring, so that the electrolyte is obtained.
The electrolyte was subjected to electrolyte performance test, and the coulombic efficiency of the lithium copper half cell tested using the electrolyte configured in example 1 is shown in fig. 1.
Comparative example 1
Preparation of electrolyte: slowly dissolving lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF 6) lithium salt in an organic carbonate solvent of Ethylene Carbonate (EC) and dimethyl carbonate (DMC) in a mass ratio of 3:7, so that the concentration of the lithium LiPF 6 lithium salt of the electrolyte is 1mol/L, and uniformly stirring to obtain the electrolyte.
The electrolyte was subjected to electrolyte performance test, and the coulombic efficiency of the lithium copper half cell tested using the electrolyte configured in comparative example 1 is shown in fig. 2.
