Definitions
- the present application relates to electrodes comprising a film of electrode material having at least one modified surface, to their manufacturing methods and to the electrochemical cells comprising them.
- the liquid electrolytes used in lithium-ion batteries are flammable and slowly degrade to form a passivation layer on the surface of the lithium film or solid electrolyte interface (SEI for "solid electrolyte interface” or “solid electrolyte interphase” in English) irreversibly consuming lithium, which decreases the coulombic efficiency of the battery.
- SEI solid electrolyte interface
- solid electrolyte interphase solid electrolyte interphase
- a simple and more industrially transposable method for the protection of the surface of lithium is to cover its surface with a polymer or a polymer/lithium salt mixture by carrying out a coating by spraying, by immersion, using a centrifuge or again using the so-called doctor blade method (N. Delaporte, et al., Front. Mater., 2019, 6, 267).
- the chosen polymer must then be stable facing lithium and ionic conductor at low temperature.
- the polymer layer deposited on the lithium surface should be comparable to the solid polymer electrolytes (SPE) generally reported in the literature, which have a low glass transition (T v ). in order to remain rubbery at room temperature and maintain lithium conductivity similar to that of a liquid electrolyte.
- SPE solid polymer electrolytes
- T v glass transition
- the polymer must have good flexibility and must be characterized by a high Young's modulus.
- polymers used in this type of protective layer include polyacrylic acid (PAA) (N.-W. Li, et al., Angew. Chem. Int. Ed., 2018, 57, 1505-1509), poly(ethylene glycol) dimethacrylate (Y. M. Lee, et al., J. Power Sources, 2003, 119-121, 964-972), the PEDOT-co-PEG copolymer (G. Ma, et al., J. Mater. Chem. A, 2014, 2, 19355-19359 and I. S. Kang, et al., J. Electrochem.
- PAA polyacrylic acid

- inorganic fillers eg Al2O3, TiO2, BaTiOs
- organic-inorganic hybrid composite electrolyte e.g Al2O3, TiO2, BaTiOs
- SBR styrene butadiene rubber
- CU3N is converted into highly conductive lithium U3N.
- Li4TisOi2/Li (LTO/Li) cells were assembled with a liquid electrolyte and better electrochemical performances were obtained by using lithium protected by a mixture of CU3N and SBR.
- a 20 ⁇ m protective layer composed of ALCh particles (1.7 ⁇ m average diameter) and polyvinylidene-hexafluoropropylene fluoride (PVDF-HFP) deposited on the surface of the lithium has been proposed to improve the lifetime lithium-oxygen batteries (DJ Lee, et al., Electrochem. Commun., 2014, 40, 45-48).
- CO3O4- Super P/Li batteries with this protective layer and a liquid electrolyte.
- the effect of similarly modified lithium has also been studied by Gao and co-workers (HK Jing et al., J. Mater. Chem. A, 2015, 3, 12213-12219), although the focus is been on improving lithium-sulfur batteries.
- a 25 ⁇ m porous layer of polyimide with AhOs as filler (particle size of about 10 nm) in order to limit the growth of lithium has also been proposed (see Z. Peng et al., J. Mater. Chem. A, 2016, 4, 2427-2432).
- This method includes the formation of a film called "skin layer” by bringing lithium into contact with an additive present in the liquid electrolyte (such as fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC), vinylene carbonate (VC) or diisocyanate of hexamethylene (HDI)).
- FEC fluoroethylene carbonate
- VC vinylene carbonate
- HDI diisocyanate of hexamethylene
- the protective layers described in the previous three paragraphs are porous and suitable for use with a liquid electrolyte, which can penetrate them.

In addition, a better coulombic efficiency (-99%) is obtained from the second cycle for the batteries assembled with the lithium containing the ceramic layer, whereas around 91-92% of coulombic efficiency is obtained for the reference batteries.
- Figure 9 presents (a) the galvanostatic cyclings and (b) the coulombic efficiencies obtained at 50°C and in C/3 for LFP/polymer electrolyte/Li batteries assembled with lithium and the LFP cathode without modification (reference) , then with lithium having a 4 ⁇ m layer of Polymer 1 with 130% ALOa-polymer and an LFP cathode having a 2 or 4 ⁇ m polymer layer (stacks C2-a and C2-b, respectively). Polymer films are not cross-linked.
- the configuration for assembling cells with modified lithium is inset in Figure 9(b).
- an LFP cathode with a thin layer of polymer was used for the cells of Figure 9 (except for the references).
- the overall resistance of the batteries was reduced thanks to the addition of this polymer layer on the cathode of LFP since discharge capacities of approximately 112 and 115 mAh/g were obtained when layers of 4 and 2 ⁇ m were deposited on the surface of the cathode, respectively. Without this added layer on the cathode, the discharge capacities were around 100 mAh/g (see Figure 8(a)). Again, reproducibility is very good using polymer layers on lithium and on cathode as shown by the two cells cycled with the cathode having a 4 ⁇ m polymer layer.
- the amount of ceramic in the polymer layer deposited on the surface of the lithium was set at 130%, because beyond that, the layer loses its mechanical properties, but also its bonding.
- a second sticky layer containing no ceramic, but only the polymer, the salt and the TEGDME is deposited on the surface of the first layer of Polymer 1 + AhCh-polymer to decrease the interfacial resistance between the anode and the polymer electrolyte. Polymer films are not cross-linked.
- Figure 10 presents (a) the galvanostatic cyclings and (b) coulombic efficiencies obtained at 50°C and in C/3 for LFP/polymer electrolyte/Li batteries assembled with lithium without modification (reference), then with lithium having a first 4 ⁇ m layer of Polymer 1 with 130% ALOs-polymer and a second 4 ⁇ m layer of Polymer 1 (C3 stack).
- the inset image ( Figure 10(b)) allows better visualization of the two layers deposited on the surface of the lithium.
- the improved interface between the self-supporting polymer electrolyte and the anode is clearly visible since an initial discharge capacity of 121 mAh/g was obtained whereas approximately 100 mAh/g was obtained with the C1 batteries when only the ALOs-polymer layer was deposited on lithium (see cycling in Figure 8(a )). However, a progressive loss of capacity is observed. It is possible that the layer is not optimal in this case.
- the coulombic efficiency reaches 80% in the first cycle for the C3 battery cycled with the lithium containing the two layers of polymer (62 to 66% for the reference batteries).
- FIG. 11(b) represents the tested assembly.
- a second layer of Polymer 1 with TEGDME was deposited on the lithium surface with relatively high thicknesses of 9 and 12 ⁇ m (stacks C4-a and C4-b in Table 3, respectively).
- Figure 11 presents (a) the galvanostatic cycling and (b) coulombic efficiencies obtained at 50°C and in C/3 for LFP/polymer electrolyte/Li batteries assembled with lithium without modification (reference), then for C4 batteries -a and C4-b. Polymer films are not cross-linked.
- the capacity difference is huge by removing the self-supporting polymer electrolyte which brings a lot of resistance and interface problems in the battery.
- the first cycle discharge capacity is approximately 145-149 mAh/g for the batteries without the polymer electrolyte against 85-90 mAh/g for the reference batteries.
- the interface between the cathode, which has surface defects, and the second layer of Polymer 1 deposited on the surface of the lithium is not optimal. Indeed, we can see small variations in the discharge capacity (Figure 11(a)), but above all larger variations in the coulombic efficiencies (Figure 11(b)), typical of an interface problem.
- the electrochemical results seem more stable with a thicker second polymer layer (12 ⁇ m versus 9 ⁇ m), but the determining factor remains the optimization of the interface between the surface of this polymer layer and the surface of the cathode.
- Figure 12 presents (a) the galvanostatic cycling and (b) coulombic efficiencies obtained at 50°C and in C/3 for these batteries as well as for the references for comparison.
- the electrochemical results are remarkable, the three cells are very reproducible so that one hardly sees any difference in the cycling of these ( Figure 12(a)).
- the initial specific capacity in discharge is about 145 mAh/g. A gradual drop in capacity is observed, but seems to stabilize as cycling progresses.
- Coulombic efficiencies close to 99% are obtained during the first cycle, which is much better than the 62 to 66% for the reference batteries. It is important to note that the thickness of the deposit on the cathode (5, 8 or 11 ⁇ m) does not influence the electrochemical cycling under the conditions tested.
- the cyclings are very similar to those obtained in Figure 12 and perfectly demonstrate the usefulness of depositing thin layers directly on the surface of the cathode and the anode to overcome a self-supported polymer electrolyte.
- the lithium has the layer rich in Al2O3-polymer which makes it possible to stabilize the lithium.
- fillers of inorganic compounds other than ALOs-polymer were also used.
- a carbon/metal (M) mixture was tested in order to form a Li-M alloy during the plating of lithium from the cathode to the lithium anode. Carbon is also present for the conduction of electrons in the polymer layer.
- two metals were tested (namely Sn and Zn) as well as a nickel phosphide Ni2P. Only one type of carbon has been tested, but others could be used.
- Figure 14 shows the galvanostatic cycling obtained at 50°C and at C/3 for LFP/polymer electrolyte/Li batteries assembled with lithium without modification (reference), then with a lithium having a 5 ⁇ m layer of polymer 1 with 30% Ni2P and 17% carbon (layer B4 of Table 2).
- Polymer films are not cross-linked. This is a first result, but confirms that the concept works. We see an increase in the initial capacity compared to the reference batteries. A gradual drop in capacity is however observable as the cycling progresses.
- This type of layer could benefit from a stack configuration such as those shown in Figures 4(d) to 4(f), particularly that of Figure 4(f) corresponding to the C6 stack (a or b) shown below. above where AhCh-polymer could be replaced by the present carbon/metal mixture.
- Example 4 Surface-modified electrodes with spray-applied second layer and electrochemical properties
- the first thin layer of inorganic compound in a polymer is however formed of Polymer 1 and unmodified alumina (Al2O3).
- the second thin layer on the lithium is applied by vaporization (spray) in a very thin layer and includes Polymer 2 rather than Polymer 1 and does not include a plasticizer.
- the cells also include a layer of different thickness of Polymer 1 with a lithium salt and a plasticizer, but without ceramic on the surface of the cathode.
- Cathode The A7 ink prepared in Example 2 is applied with a doctor blade to the surface of an LFP cathode, as described in Example 3(a), so as to obtain after crosslinking a thickness of 40 ⁇ m. Once coated, the cathode is left under the extractor hood for 5 minutes then in an airtight box under nitrogen for 5 minutes and then cross-linked under UV for 10 minutes.
- the free surface of the polymer on the cathode is then applied to the polymeric surface of the second layer present on the anode.
- the resulting multilayer material is pressed together and sachet-like batteries are formed from this material.
- the C8 Cell is prepared as for the C7 Cell, applying a 30 ⁇ m layer on the cathode rather than 40 ⁇ m.
- Ink B5-a is also replaced by Ink B5-b resulting in a layer thickness of approximately 7-8 ⁇ m.
- the C9 Cell is prepared the same way as the C7 Cell, where a 20 ⁇ m layer on the cathode rather than 40 ⁇ m.
- Stack composition (items in order) a To. The composition of layers A7, A9 and B5(a and b) is defined in Example 2. b. LFP cathode composition defined in Example 3(a). vs. Ultra-thin layer (thickness not measured)
- Figures 15 to 17 present the electrochemical results obtained during the cycling of C7 to C9 cells in comparison with an LFP/polymer electrolyte/Li cell assembled with lithium without modification (reference).
- Figure 15(a) demonstrates that the C7 Cell is more stable during cycling than the reference cell. This aspect is all the more visible in Figure 15(c) where a marked drop in coulombic efficiency is observed around the 20th cycle for the reference cells, whereas this remains stable for the C7 cells.
- Figure 15(b) also demonstrates a higher average voltage for the C7 cells compared to the reference cells.
- Figures 16(a) and 16(b) show cycling stability and coulombic efficiency results for C8 cells that are relatively similar to those obtained for C7 cells.
- Figure 17 shows the capacity rate results obtained with C9 cells for 5 cycles at each of the cycling rates of C/6, C/4, C/3, C/2 and 1C.
- Example 5 Pretreated Electrodes with Modified Surface and Electrochemical Properties
- An organic, inorganic or metallic pretreatment of the surface of the metallic electrode film can also be carried out in order to form a pretreatment layer which may consist of the formation of a passivation layer, in the formation or the deposition of a compound, an organic or inorganic salt, or an alloy with a metal different from that of the electrode film.
- FIG. 18 shows the galvanostatic cycling obtained at 50°C in C/3 (a) and C/6 (b) for LFP/polymer electrolyte/Li batteries assembled with lithium without modification (reference), and with lithiums pretreated with (a) an inorganic molecule (PCh) and (b) a thin layer of metal (Zn). These lithiums have been shown to help stabilize cycling.
- the goal is to have cumulative effects with the layer of polymer + inorganic compound and possibly a second layer.
- FIG 19 shows photographs of lithium strips that received (a) treatment with PCh and (b) treatment with PCI3 followed by a deposit of polymer 1 + ALCh-polymer.
- the first deposit with PCh is very uniform and gives a light brown color (see Figure 19(a)).
- the integrity and quality of this first deposition are not affected by the deposition of the polymer layer 1 + Al2O3-polymer as shown in Figure 19(b).
