将锂金属片、液态金属层、固态电解质层和正极依次叠放封装,获得本实施例的扣式电池。按照其核心结构,将该电池标记为:Li//Li 1.5BP 3DME 10//PEO/Li 7P 3S 11//NCM。
为了验证本实施例中液态金属层抑制枝晶生长的能力,按照图11的示意图组装了对称电池①测试其极限电流密度。对称电池①标记为:Li 1.5BP 3DME 10//PEO/Li 7P 3S 11/PEO//Li 1.5BP 3DME 10
另外,为了验证该实施例中的液态金属层和固态电解质层的组合结构与锂金属之间的稳定性,在对称电池①的基础上增加锂金属片,按照图12的示意图组装了对称电池②标记为:Li//Li 1.5BP 3DME 10//PEO/Li 7P 3S 11/PEO//Li 1.5BP 3DME 10//Li。
将对称电池①进行如下测试:
2a、在30℃下,用蓝电测试仪测试上述对称电池①,以0.1mA电流开始逐步升高电流,进行充放电循环测试,直至出现短路或者电压到达检测仪器截止电压(-5V至5V)。
2b、30℃下,以0.1mA电流开始逐步升高电流,进行充放电循环测试,其中在5mA、6mA、7mA、8mA、9mA、10mA等电流数值下循环3圈,直至出现短路或者电压到达检测仪器截止电压(-5V至5V)。
2c、将测试结束的电池拆解,对固态电解质层表面进行扫描电子显微镜(SEM)测试,记录其形貌;并采用TOF-SIMS测试电解质表面的物质碎片组成。
将对称电池②进行如下测试:
2d、在30℃下,用蓝电测试仪在0.127mA/cm 2的电流密度和0.254mAh/cm 2的单位面容量进行充放电循环测试。
测试2a所得对称电池电压、电流密度随循环时间的变化如图17所示,从图中曲线可以看出采用本申请实施例金属负极的电池,在到达仪器截止电压时,电流密度高达17.78mA/cm 2,单位面容量高达17.78mAh/cm 2,循环过程中并未出现电压突降的现象,表明未发生短路。
测试2b所得对称电池电压、电流密度随循环时间的变化如图18所示,从图中曲线可以看出采用本申请实施例金属负极的电池,在到达仪器截止电压时,电流密度仍然高达10.16mA/cm 2,且在循环过程中并未出现电压突降的现象,表明未发生短路。本实施例说明,尽管部分电流下循环圈数从一圈延长至三圈,总循环时间同时延长,在此情况下,采用本申请实施例金属负极的电池依然具有非常优异的抑制锂枝晶生长、防止电池短路的性能。
测试2c中SEM的结果如图19所示,循环后的液态金属与固态电解质之间形成一个高致密、平整的界面,该界面在长时间循环后仍保持稳定。而TOF-SIMS的结果显示,该界面层的物质除了含有S、O、PS 2、PS、POS、Li、Li 3O、Li 2S、Li 3CO 3等离子碎片外,还包含CH 2OF、CHO 2、C 7H 5等负离子碎片和C 4H 7、C 2H 3、C 2H 5、C 3H 7、C 3H 5、C 3H 3等正离子碎片。说明界面生成了一个富含烯烃类的界面层,提高了界面的循环稳定性,且烯烃类离子碎片的种类比β-LPS界面保护层的碎片种类多。
测试2d所得对称电池②的电压-时间循环数据如图20所示。初始极化电压为0.1V,在110h循环过程中,极化电压在第5圈增大,后又回到0.1V,这可能是由于PEO界面层的活化造成的极化电压的波动。该对称电池展示了较好的循环稳定性,这显示了负极使用液态负极材料(即液态金属溶液)与固态金属锂的组合具有实用化的潜力。其中液态负极材料可以抑制锂枝晶的产生,提升电池的循环寿命和安全性;金属锂片可以提供更高的容量,促进电池能量密度的提升。
实施例3
本实施例制备了扣式电池,其中,液态金属溶液选用Li-Bp-DME(Li 1.5BP 3DME 10)溶液,固态电解质本体选用Li 6PS 5Cl,PEO为界面保护层材料,玻璃纤维为储液材料层材料,正极包含商用钴酸锂材料(包覆锆酸锂界面保护层)作为活性物质、Li 6PS 5Cl为电解质粉末、VGCF为导电添加剂,组装成扣式全电池。其他参数与实施例1相同。

同时按照实施例1的方式采用本申请负极组装成对称电池①:Li-Bp-DME//PEO/Li 6PS 5Cl/PEO//Li-Bp-DME,并按照1a的方式进行测试,测得采用本申请实施例金属负极的电池,极限电流密度高达15.52mA/cm 2
实施例4

对比例1
本对比例选用Li 7P 3S 11作为固态电解质,无电解质界面保护层,仅采用金属锂为电极,在手套箱内(O 2<0.1ppm,H 2O<0.1ppm)组装Li//Li 7P 3S 11//Li对称电池并进行逐步增大电流密度的循环测试。
该电池电压-时间循环数据如图24所示,当电流密度增大到0.4mA/cm 2时,极化电压稳定,但当电流密度进一步增大时,极化电压曲线迅速降低至0附近,出现短路。说明锂金属在无任何界面保护层时与硫化物固态电解质的极限电流密度仅为0.4mA/cm 2
对比例2
本对比例选用Li 7P 3S 11作为固态电解质,PEO为固态界面保护层材料,仅采用金属锂为电极,在手套箱内(O 2<0.1ppm,H 2O<0.1ppm)组装Li//PEO/Li 7P 3S 11/PEO//Li对称电池,测得极限电流密度为0.2mA/cm 2,并在30℃下以0.127mA/cm 2的电流密度和0.254mAh/cm 2的单位面容量进行充放电循环测试。
该电池电压-时间循环数据如图25所示,从图25可见电压不稳定,有微短路现象产生。说明去除液态金属层后,仅使用金属锂负极组装的全固态电池,即使有PEO作为界面保护层,仍存在锂枝晶生长问题。
对比例3

由实施例1至4的极限电流密度结果可知,采用本申请实施例所提供的金属负极的对称电池,可具有超高(大于15mA/cm 2)的极限电流密度。而且由实施例1和实施例2可知PEO作为硫化物固态电解质保护层的结构组合效果比β-LPS作为保护层更佳,获得了17.78mA/cm 2的超高极限电流密度。相比之下对比例1金属锂直接与硫化物固态电解质的组合,以及对比例2金属锂与具有PEO保护层的硫化物固态电解质的组合所得的锂对称电池,极限电流密度均小于1mA/cm 2。另外,对比例3-5的锂对称电池的极限电流密度也远小于本申请实施例的电池。这表明本申请提供的金属负极对于抑制枝晶的生长效果十分显著,在业内达到较高水平。另外,本申请实施例1和实施例2中在对称电池①的基础上,引入锂金属片作为电极,分别选用带有β-LPS保护层和PEO保护层的硫化物固态电解质,结合有机液态金属溶液组成的对称电池②,在0.127mA/cm 2的电流密度和0.254mAh/cm 2的单位面容量进行充放电,循环100h后极化电压仍保持稳定,且极化电压小,说明液态金属层和固态电解质层与锂金属兼容性强,作为锂金属上的结构组合层,同样可以很好的起到抑制枝晶的作用。另外,实施例3中通过在正极端采用固态型正极组装成全电池,实施例4中通过在正极端引入液态型的正极材料组装成全电池,验证了本申请提供的金属负极在锂金属全电池体系也能可靠的工作。
