背景技术
锂离子电池由于具有高能量密度、长循环寿命及无记忆效应等优点而被广泛应用于穿戴设备、智能手机、无人机、电动汽车及大型储能等设备等领域,已成为当今世界最具发展潜力的新型绿色化学电源,但也对锂离子电池的性能提出更高的要求。
在温度较低(例如低于10℃)的环境中,锂离子电池的动力学性能变差,充电时易导致负极出现析锂,同时,正极活性材料和负极活性材料的活性降低,导致锂离子电池的容量发挥受限、能量密度降低,从而导致锂离子电池的性能降低。在相关技术中,通常采用外部加热方式对锂离子电池进行加热以改善锂离子电池在低温下的性能,但加热过程升温速率慢,锂离子电池整体温差较大,对正极活性材料和负极活性材料影响较大,也会影响锂离子电池的循环、安全等性能;采用内置加热片也是一种常用的加热方式,但加热片的内置降低了锂离子电池的能量密度,其加热的不均匀性也使得锂离子电池存在一定的安全可靠性风险。
发明内容
本申请的目的在于提供一种电化学装置和电子装置,以提高电化学装置在低温下的性能。
本申请的第一方面提供了一种电化学装置,电化学装置包括极片,极片包括集流体,集流体包括第一集流体层、中间层、第二集流体层、第一导电端子和第二导电端子,其中,中间层位于第一集流体层和第二集流体层之间,第一导电端子和第二导电端子与中间层形成电连接,第一导电端子与第二导电端子间具有阻值为R的电阻,当温度低于设定值时,可激活电阻。具体地,将上述极片应用于电化学装置中,当电化学装置的温度低于设定值时(例如低于10℃),第一导电端子和第二导电端子导通后通入电流,电阻被激活,中间层对电化学装置进行加热;当电化学装置的温度达到加热目标温度(例如高于35℃)时,第一导电端子和第二导电端子断开,电阻处于未激活状态,中间层停止对电化学装置加热。从而使电化学装置能够在低温条件下实现快速的自加热,提升电化学体系动力学,降低极化,有效减少电化学装置的能量密度损失,并改善负极析锂的现象,进而改善电化学装置 在低温下的性能,例如充电性能、循环性能等。此外,将可激活的电阻设置于集流体的中间层,在不增加其他组件、不损失电化学装置的能量密度的同时,能够实现对电化学装置更为均匀高效的加热,进一步改善电化学装置在快速充电环境下的安全性能。在本申请中,对电化学装置的温度监控方式,以及控制第一导电端子和第二导电端子导通和断开的方式不做具体限定,只要能实现本申请的目的即可,可以采用本领域已知的方式,例如,可以采用温度传感器监控电化学装置的温度,通过开关控制第一导电端子和第二导电端子导通和断开。
