Description

Non-aqueous electrolyte for improving overcharge safety and lithium battery using the same}

The present invention relates to a non-aqueous electrolyte having excellent overcharge safety and a lithium battery employing the same. Even when the battery is overcharged and the voltage rises, the electrolyte is oxidatively decomposed to form a polymer, thereby protecting the battery by consuming the overcharge current. The present invention relates to a non-aqueous electrolyte and a lithium battery employing the same, which can reduce side effects such as deterioration of chemical properties, standard capacity, and lifespan while improving overcharging safety.

Recently, as the electronic equipment becomes smaller and lighter due to the development of advanced electronic devices, the use of portable electronic devices is gradually increasing. Therefore, the necessity of a battery having high energy density characteristics used as a power source for such an electronic device is increasing, and research on lithium batteries has been actively conducted.

A lithium battery is a battery manufactured by forming a separator, an electrolyte, and an electrolyte that provides a migration path between lithium ions between a cathode and an anode, and when the lithium ions are inserted / deinserted from the cathode and the anode, Electric energy is generated by the reduction reaction. However, when lithium battery is overcharged due to charger malfunction, etc., when voltage rises rapidly, excess lithium is deposited on the cathode and lithium is excessively inserted on the anode, so the anode of cathode / anode is thermally unstable. When the organic solvent of the electrolyte is decomposed to cause a sudden exothermic reaction, a situation such as thermal runaway occurs suddenly, causing a serious damage to safety.

In order to solve such a problem, many attempts have been made to suppress the overcharging of lithium batteries by changing the composition of the electrolyte or adding an additive to the electrolyte. For example, U.S. Patent No. 5,580,684 adds trimethyl phosphate, tri (trifluoroethyl) phosphate, tri (2-chloroethyl) phosphate, etc. to the electrolyte as a phosphate ester substance to increase the self-extinguishing of the electrolyte. In this case, US Pat. No. 5,776,627 adds thiophene, biphenyl, furan, and the like to polymerize the battery when the battery is abnormal, thereby preventing the movement of lithium. A method of increasing the safety of a battery by opening the vent easily is disclosed.

Also similar to the above methods, US Pat. No. 5,763,119, 1,2-dimethoxy-4-bromo-benzene, US Pat. No. 5,709,968, 2-chloro-p-xylene and 4-chloro-anisole, US Pat. 5,858,573 discloses a method for improving battery safety by adding 2,7-diacetyl thianthrene and the like, respectively.

Similarly, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 7-302614 discloses a method of protecting a battery by consuming an overcharge current by forming a polymer using a benzene compound.

However, most of the additives can be polymerized under normal operating conditions of the battery or can generate a large amount of gas by oxidative decomposition, thereby increasing the swelling phenomenon of the battery. There are various problems such as deterioration of various characteristics of the product, which has not been put into practical use.

The technical problem to be achieved by the present invention is to improve the safety, suppress the swelling phenomenon by suppressing the risk of overheating, fire or explosion of the battery when overcharged or exposed to high temperatures due to various reasons such as malfunction of the charger, Mars It is to provide a non-aqueous electrolyte that can suppress side effects such as deterioration in characteristics, standard capacity and lifespan characteristics.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a lithium battery employing the electrolyte.

<Formula 3>

Example 2

<Formula 3>

5. Fabrication of Lithium Ion Batteries

The separators were arranged above and below the electrode body obtained as described above, and then wound and compressed into a 30 mm x 48 mm x 6 mm square can. Thereafter, the electrolyte was injected into a can to prepare a lithium ion battery.

Test Example 1: Overcharge Test

Each lithium ion battery obtained as described above was charged at room temperature with a charging current of 950 mA (1 C) so as to have a battery voltage of 4.2 V, and charged at a constant voltage of 4.2 V for 3 hours to bring it into a fully charged state. Thus, overcharge was performed for about 2.5 hours with a charging current of 950 mA (1C) between the cathode / anode terminals of each fully charged lithium ion battery, and the charging voltage and the temperature change were observed.

1 is an experimental result of overcharging a lithium ion battery obtained in Comparative Example 1 with a current of 1C (950 mA), and shutting down a separator by a temperature increase due to electrolyte depletion or oxidation of a cathode / anode and electrolyte upon application of 12V externally. It can be seen that, in the case of a high current of about 1C thermal runaway occurs, the separator is dissolved and connected to the internal short circuit may be connected to the heat generation and ignition.

FIG. 2 was conducted under the same experimental conditions as those of Comparative Example 1 as a result of overcharge of the lithium ion battery obtained in Example 1. FIG. That is, as shown in the figure, since the polymerization reaction occurs by the additive of the present invention after about 10 minutes after the overcharge, there is a temperature increase, but because the overcharge current is continuously consumed, the voltage rise is suppressed at about 5V, the electrolyte and the battery The heat generation by the oxidative decomposition reaction of the material is suppressed, and the battery surface temperature is suppressed up to 50 ° C., and thermal runaway is fundamentally controlled to ensure the safety of the battery.

Experimental Example 2: Mars and Swelling Characteristics

For the batteries obtained in Examples and Comparative Examples, the chemical capacity, the standard capacity, and the degree of swelling before and after chemical conversion were measured and described in Table 1 below. The chemical conversion conditions were charged with a voltage of 4.2 V and a current of 0.2 C. The discharge was 0.2 C of current and a 2.75 V final voltage. In the case of swelling, the thickness of the battery was measured.

Remarks Mars before and after swelling difference (mm) Mars capacity (mAh) Standard capacity (mAh) charge Discharge efficiency(%) Example 1 5.30 950 900 94 920 Example 2 5.25 970 920 95 930 Example 3 5.41 990 911 92 924 Comparative Example 1 5.09 958 883 92 934 Comparative Example 2 5.74 939 865 92 851

As shown in Table 1, it can be seen that Comparative Example 2, which includes the conventional overcharge preventing additive, generates more swelling than the lithium battery of Comparative Example 1, which does not contain the overcharge preventing additive. This is because the overcharge preventing additive is oxidatively decomposed to generate a large amount of gas.

However, since the lithium batteries of Examples 1 to 3 using the overcharge preventing additive of the present invention exhibit a swelling degree almost similar to that of Comparative Example 1, it can be seen that swelling caused by the additive is almost suppressed.

Test Example 3: Life Characteristics

The charge and discharge life characteristics of the lithium batteries obtained in Example 2 and Comparative Example 2 were tested. The charge and discharge cycle of the battery was carried out at 2.7 to 4.2V at 2C under constant current / constant voltage conditions, and the constant voltage section was 1/10 of the constant current section. The capacity and charge / discharge cycle life characteristics of the battery are shown in FIG. 3.

As shown in FIG. 3, the lithium battery including the overcharge preventing additive of the present invention obtained in Example 2 has a higher capacity after 50 charge / discharge cycles compared to a lithium battery including the conventional overcharge preventing additive. It can be seen that the characteristic is improved.

In the non-aqueous electrolyte solution of the present invention, even if the battery is overcharged due to various causes, the electrolyte is oxidized to form a polymer due to the oxidative decomposition of the electrolyte. It can improve side effects such as deterioration of characteristics, standard capacity and lifespan characteristics, and can be usefully used in lithium batteries.
