Description
本申请涉及电化学领域,具体涉及一种电化学装置及包含该电化学装置的电子装置。
锂离子电池具有能量密度大、循环寿命长、标称电压高、自放电率低、体积小、重量轻等许多优点,在消费电子领域具有广泛的应用。随着近年来电动汽车(EV)和可移动电子设备的高速发展,人们对电池的能量密度、安全性、循环性能等相关需求越来越高,期待着综合性能全面提升的新型锂离子电池的出现。
在现有锂离子电池体系中,受限于电化学体系的限制,如正负极材料的电压差有限、电解液抗氧化还原能力有限等,锂离子电池的工作电压很难超过5V。但实际使用中,需要用到超过5V电压的场景很多,比如电动汽车(EV)、电压互感器(PT)、储能系统(ESS)等。即使在手机市场,为了满足快充等需求,也需要锂离子电池开路电压的提升。
目前一些公司提出了串联电池的概念来解决这一问题,其方案是直接在同一个包装袋内串联两个锂离子电池,但通常存在如下问题:一方面,其未对两串联锂离子电池做离子绝缘,该情况下因电池电压升高,电解液在高电压条件下分解,将导致电池失效,同时两个锂离子电池间会因极片电压差发生内短路,电池也会失效;另一方面,该串联方式需要将不同锂离子电池的不同极性极耳焊接以实现锂离子电池的串联,而极耳焊接效果不佳易导致锂离子电池内阻增大等问题,不但存在极大的安全隐患而且不利于电能的输出,同时,多个极耳引出片的设计,会增加极耳的断裂风险,从而降低生产优率。因此,开发一种新的串联结构的锂离子电池,实现高输出电压电池使用可靠性和电能的有效输出,成为本领域技术人员亟待解决的问题。
