Description
SILICON ANODE BASED LITHIUM-ION BATTERY
[0001] This application claims the benefit of the filing date of U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 63/224,217, filed July 21, 2021, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
FIELD
[0002] The present disclosure relates to silicon-polymer composite anodes; a method for producing the anodes; and dual salt electrolytes to improve the conductivity, specific capacity, rate capability, and stability of the anodes; suitable for use in electrochemical energy storage devices and electrochemical energy storage devices including the anodes and electrolytes.
BACKGROUND
[0003] Lithium Ion (Li-ion) batteries are heavily used in consumer electronics, electric vehicles (EVs), as well as energy storage systems (ESS) and smart grids. The energy density of the battery is dependent on the anode and cathode materials used and optimizing processing and manufacturing have allowed for a 4-5 % improvement in the energy density each year, but these increments are not significant. To reach energy density targets of next-generation energy technologies will need advancements in electrode materials, and there is an urgent need to incorporate high energy-density active materials. While a lot of research has focused on developing high energy cathodes, anode materials research has been limited.
[0004] Recently, silicon (Si) has emerged as one of the most attractive high energy anode material for Li-ion batteries. Silicon’s low working voltage and high theoretical specific capacity of 3579 mAh/g is nearly ten times that of conventional graphite is a major reason for this interest. Despite this significant advantage, silicon anodes face several challenges associated with severe volume expansion and the resultant particle breakdown. While graphite electrodes expand 10-15 % during lithium intercalation, Si electrodes expand - 300 %, causing structural degradation and instability of the solid-electrolyte-interphase (SEI) layer. This causes material pulverization and electrode delamination, resulting in loss of capacity with cycling. It is important to have a conductive polymer material as binder coated over the active material silicon
to mechanically contain the expansion, contraction, and fragmentation of silicon particles. Similarly, an electrochemically robust SEI layer prevents side reactions that cause capacity fade. [0005] While silicon particle degradation can be mitigated by using smaller than 150 nm active material particles or using other nanostructures, cells using such anode designs are limited by low loadings (less than 15 % by mass) of nano silicon materials. Additionally, these anode designs lack sufficiently high coulombic efficiencies due to constant breakdown of SEI layer during expansion and contraction of silicon.
SUMMARY

[0007] In accordance with another aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided an anode for electrochemical energy storage device including a plurality of silicon active materials with particle sizes from 1 nm to 100 pm.

[0008] In accordance with another aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided an anode for electrochemical energy storage device including a polymer material, wherein at least one polymer material is PAN.
[0009] In accordance with another aspect of the present disclosure, PAN can be cyclized using heat treatment at temperatures of from 200 to 600 °C and convert to a ladder compound by crosslinking polymer chains, where the cyclization changes the nitrile bond (ON) to a double bond (C=N). Polymer binder forms elastic but robust films to allow for controlled fragmentation/pulverization of silicon particles within the binder matrix. The resultant anode material can overcome expansion and conductivity challenges of silicon-based anodes, such as by providing binders that can prevent expansion of silicon particles and conductive additives to provide a path for Li-ion mobility. The polymer is about from 10 to 40 wt. % of the anode composite material.
[0010] Described herein are various embodiments of silicon-polymer composite anodes and methods of making the same. The method of making the composite anode includes the steps
of mixing together silicon, polymer, and solvent; coating the mixture onto a copper current collector to form a coated copper current collector; and subjecting the coated copper current collector to a temperature treatment. In accordance with one aspect of the present disclosure, the temperature treatment may include heating the coated copper current collector in an inert atmosphere in the temperature range of from 200 to 600 °C.
[0011] In accordance with another aspect of the present disclosure, an electrochemical energy storage device includes an anode, a cathode, and an electrolyte.
[0012] In accordance with another aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a dual-salt electrolyte, wherein the Li+ ion salts are lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPFe) and lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (LiFSI).

[0016] These and other aspects of the present disclosure will become apparent upon a review of the following detailed description and the claims appended thereto.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0023] Embodiments are described more fully below with reference to the accompanying Figures, which form a part hereof and show, by way of illustration, specific exemplary embodiments. These embodiments are disclosed in sufficient detail to enable those skilled in the art to practice the invention. However, embodiments may be implemented in many different forms and should not be construed as being limited to the embodiments set forth herein. The following detailed description is, therefore, not to be taken in a limiting sense.
[0024] Herein, silicon-polymer composite anodes are disclosed for silicon anode-based Li- ion batteries, with a dual salt electrolyte. The polymer, primarily polyacrylonitrile (PAN) forms a mechanically stable but elastic film around the silicon active material particles, to allow for self- contained fragmentation. Additionally, dual salt electrolyte with fluorinated solvents and ionic liquid additives forms a robust SEI to prevent anode degradation due to contact with electrolyte and the resultant side reactions.
[0025] The disclosed technology relates generally to an electrochemical energy storage device anode. Particularly, the disclosure is directed towards silicon-polymer composite anodes; a dual-salt electrolyte and a Li-ion battery containing the anode and electrolyte.
[0026] The present disclosure describes a Li-ion battery anode that can overcome the expansion and conductivity challenges of silicon anodes. The polymer component of the composite anode, more specifically PAN serves as the binder for the silicon anode-based Li-ion battery. PAN is used as a polymer binder to form elastic but robust films to allow for controlled fragmentation/pulverization of silicon particles within the binder matrix. Upon heat treatment,
PAN is cyclized where the nitrile bond (ON) gets converted to a double bond (C=N) due to crosslinking of PAN molecules. This treatment yields ladder polymer chains of PAN fiber that are elastic but mechanically robust, thus allowing for controlled fragmentation of silicon particles. Additionally, PAN matrix also provides a path for Li-ion mobility thus enhancing the conductivity of the composite anode.
[0027] In an embodiment, there is provided an anode for electrochemical energy storage device including silicon particles, a polymer; and a method for producing the silicon-polymer composite anode; wherein the silicon particles of the silicon-polymer composite anode are suitably and sufficiently coated with a binder material.

[0046] The disclosure will be further illustrated with reference to the following specific examples. It is understood that these examples are given by way of illustration and are not meant to limit the disclosure or the claims to follow.
[0047] Example A - Preparation of Silicon-Polymer Composite Anode
[0048] 48 % silicon powder (1 pm) was used as the active material and mixed with 17.7%
PAN by ball milling the solids at low rpm. 32 % of graphite was added to the solid mixture and ball milled. 2.2 % of conductive carbon black and 0.1 % of oxalic acid were dispersed in DMF using high-shear dispersion. The solid mixture is then added to the dispersion and allowed to mix overnight. A benchtop doctor-blade coater was used to coat the slurry on to copper current collectors to achieve electrodes with ~3 mg/cm2 loading. The electrodes were then dried at 60 °C in a convection oven before heat treatment in an inert argon gas atmosphere at 330 °C. Fig. 1 shows the FTIR spectra of silicon-polymer composite anodes before and after heat treatment in an inert argon gas atmosphere at 330 °C. The peak highlighted by a circle at ~ 1600 cm'1 corresponds to C=N and is only present in the sample treated at 330 °C, indicating cyclization of PAN.
[0049] Example B - Preparation of Silicon-Polymer Composite Anode
[0050] The anode was prepared using the same method as used for Example A with citric acid used in place of oxalic acid.
[0051] Example C - Electrolyte Preparation
[0052] Electrolyte formulations were prepared in a dry argon filled glovebox by combining all the electrolyte components in a glass vial and stirring for 24 hours to ensure complete dissolution of the salts. Comparative Example (CE) is a commercially used reference electrolyte and Embodiment Example (EE) is a representative example electrolyte as per the present disclosure. Both electrolytes had different additives added to the base formulation. The electrolyte formulations are summarized in Table A:
Table A
Table B below compares the viscosity and conductivity values of CE and EE at room temperature (23 ± 2 °C).
Table B
[0053] Example D - Cell Fabrication - 65 mAh Cells
[0054] Pouch cells were assembled with NMC811 cathode, and the anode listed in Example A, and electrolytes CE and EE listed in Example C. The NMC811 cathode had ~ 4.1 mAh/cm2 specific capacity and ~ 28 mg/cm2 loading. The separator used was polypropylene and the expected cell capacity was ~ 65 mAh. The cells were tested in the voltage range of from 4.1 to 3.0 V. Figs. 2 and 3 the charge and discharge rate capability for the full cells (2 cells with each electrolyte CE and EE) with NMC 811 cathode and a silicon-polymer composite anode as per the disclosure. As is evident from the data, the dual salt electrolyte as represented by EE performs better during fast charging and fast discharging compared to CE. This can be attributed to the higher conductivity of EE compared to CE, leading to faster lithium-ion transport.
[0055] Example E - Performance Impacts of Electrolytes
[0056] Electrolyte formulations were prepared as described in Example C. Ionic Liquid based electrolytes (IL1 and IL2) and Carbonate Based Electrolytes (Carbl and Carb2) are compared in effectiveness during both formation and cycling. The electrolyte formulations are summarized in Table C:
[0057] Example F - Cell Fabrication - 90 mAh Cells
[0058] Pouch cells were assembled with NMC811 cathode, and the anode as listed in Example A, and electrolytes IL1, IL2, Carbl and Carb2 as listed in Example E. The NMC811 cathode had ~ 4.16 mAh/cm2 specific capacity and ~ 21.2 mg/cm2 loading. The separator used was polypropylene and the expected cell capacities were ~ 90 mAh or ~180mAh. The cells were
tested in the voltage range of from 4.2 to 2.7 V. Figs. 4 and 5 the 1st and 2nd cycle efficiency for the full cells with NMC 811 cathode and a silicon-polymer composite anode as per the disclosure. Fig. 6 shows the comparison of discharge cycling capacity during a C/3 rate discharge test. As is evident from the data, the carbonate-based electrolytes as represented by Carbl and Carb2 perform better in 1st cycle efficiency (FCE) compared to CE. This can be attributed to the lower viscosity and resistance in the carbonate-based electrolytes to the Ionic Liquid based ones, leading to faster lithium-ion transport.
