本申请中,电池单体可以包括锂离子二次电池、锂离子一次电池、锂硫电池、钠锂离子电池、钠离子电池、锂金属电池或镁离子电池等,本申请实施例对此并不限定。电池单体可呈圆柱体、扁平体、长方体或其它形状等,本申请实施例对此也 不限定。电池单体一般按封装的方式分成三种:柱形电池单体、方形电池单体和软包电池单体,本申请实施例对此也不限定。
本申请的实施例所提到的电池是指包括一个或多个电池单体以提供更高的电压和容量的单一的物理模块。例如,本申请中所提到的电池可以包括电池模块或电池包等。电池一般包括用于封装一个或多个电池单体的箱体。箱体可以避免液体或其他异物影响电池单体的充电或放电。
电池单体包括电极组件和电解液,电极组件由阴极极片、阳极极片和隔离膜组成。电池单体主要依靠金属离子在阴极极片和阳极极片之间移动来工作。阴极极片包括阴极集流体和阴极活性物质层,阴极活性物质层涂覆于阴极集流体的表面,未涂覆阴极活性物质层的阴极集流体凸出于已涂覆阴极活性物质层的阴极集流体,未涂覆阴极活性物质层的阴极集流体作为阴极极耳。以锂离子电池为例,阴极集流体的材料可以为铝,阴极活性物质可以为钴酸锂、磷酸铁锂、三元锂或锰酸锂等。阳极极片包括阳极集流体和阳极活性物质层,阳极活性物质层涂覆于阳极集流体的表面,未涂覆阳极活性物质层的阳极集流体凸出于已涂覆阳极活性物质层的阳极集流体,未涂覆阳极活性物质层的阳极集流体作为阳极极耳。阳极集流体的材料可以为铜,阳极活性物质可以为碳、硅、锂金属或锂合金等。为了保证通过大电流而不发生熔断,阴极极耳的数量为多个且层叠在一起,阳极极耳的数量为多个且层叠在一起。隔离膜的材质可以为聚丙烯(polypropylene,PP)或聚乙烯(polyethylene,PE)等。
为了满足不同的电力需求,电池可以包括多个电池单体,其中,多个电池单体之间可以串联或并联或混联,混联是指串联和并联的混合。可选地,多个电池单体可以先串联或并联或混联组成电池模块,多个电池模块再串联或并联或混联组成电池。也就是说,多个电池单体可以直接组成电池,也可以先组成电池模块,电池模块再组成电池。电池再进一步设置于用电设备中,为用电设备提供电能。
电池中的电池单体往往是通过其内部的化学反应将化学能转化为电能,通过电极组件的极耳将电能导出,从而向外部用电设备供电的。在充放电的过程中,电池单体中的电极组件容易产生膨胀,使得极片与隔离膜之间产生一定的膨胀力,影响阳极极片和阴极极片之间的正常化学反应,严重时可能会导致极片的断裂,影响电池单体的安全性能。在一些电极组件中,例如,方形电池的电极组件,电极组件可以包括近似平行的两个大面部分和连接大面部分的拐角部分,在电极组件内部产生了膨胀力的情况下,拐角部分受到的膨胀力会比大面部分受到的膨胀力更大,更容易受到膨胀力的作用而发生断裂。另一方面,在电极组件的两边的拐角部分会形成较大的极化区间,增加锂离子的传导距离,导致电池单体的极化作用增大,使得电池单体更容易析锂,严重时会影响电池单体的性能与安全。
鉴于此,本申请提供了一种电极组件,电极组件的拐角部分和大面部分涂覆有膨胀率不同的活性材料,且涂覆在拐角部分的活性材料的膨胀率小于涂覆在大面部分的活性材料的膨胀率,则在电池单体的充放电过程中,涂覆在拐角部分的活性材料的膨胀程度较小,能够减少拐角处的极片断裂的可能性,保证电极组件的性能以及电极 组件在使用过程中的安全性能。同时,较小的膨胀程度也可以减少电极组件在拐角部分的析锂现象的发生。另外,相较于在电极组件上留有空白区域的方案,本申请实施例提供的电极组件仍然能够在极片上充分涂覆活性物质,从而提高电池单体的能量密度。
本申请实施例描述的技术方案均适用于各种使用电池的用电设备。用电设备可以是车辆、手机、便携式设备、笔记本电脑、轮船、航天器、电动玩具和电动工具等等。车辆可以是燃油汽车、燃气汽车或新能源汽车,新能源汽车可以是纯电动汽车、混合动力汽车或增程式汽车等;航天器包括飞机、火箭、航天飞机和宇宙飞船等等;电动玩具包括固定式或移动式的电动玩具,例如,游戏机、电动汽车玩具、电动轮船玩具和电动飞机玩具等等;电动工具包括金属切削电动工具、研磨电动工具、装配电动工具和铁道用电动工具,例如,电钻、电动砂轮机、电动扳手、电动螺丝刀、电锤、冲击电钻、混凝土振动器和电刨等等。本申请实施例对上述用电设备不做特殊限制。
以下实施例为了方便说明,以用电设备为车辆为例进行说明。例如,如图1所示,为本申请一个实施例的一种车辆1的结构示意图,车辆1可以为燃油汽车、燃气汽车或新能源汽车,新能源汽车可以是纯电动汽车、混合动力汽车或增程式汽车等。车辆1的内部可以设置马达40,控制器30以及电池10,控制器30用来控制电池10为马达40的供电。例如,在车辆1的底部或车头或车尾可以设置电池10。电池10可以用于车辆1的供电,例如,电池10可以作为车辆1的操作电源,用于车辆1的电路系统,例如,用于车辆1的启动、导航和运行时的工作用电需求。在本申请的另一实施例中,电池10不仅仅可以作为车辆1的操作电源,还可以作为车辆1的驱动电源,替代或部分地替代燃油或天然气为车辆1提供驱动动力。
电池10可以包括箱体,箱体内部为中空结构,该中空结构可以用于容纳多个电池单体。根据不同的电力需求,电池10中的电池单体的数量可以设置为任意数值。多个电池单体可通过串联、并联或混联的方式连接以实现较大的容量或功率。由于每个电池10中包括的电池单体的数量可能较多,为了便于安装,可以将电池单体分组设置,每组电池单体组成电池模块。电池模块中包括的电池单体的数量不限,可以根据需求设置块,这些电池模块可通过串联、并联或混联的方式进行连接。
例如,图2示出了一种电池单体100的分解结构,可以包括外部的外壳110和内部的电极组件120。外壳110可以为中空结构,该中空结构用于容纳电极组件120。电池单体100可以根据实际应用设置一个或者多个电极组件120。电极组件120是电池单体100中发生电化学反应的部件。电极组件120可以是圆柱体或者长方体等,并且,可以根据电极组件120的形状,对应设置电池单体100的外壳的形状。每个电极组件120可以具有第一极耳120a和第二极耳120b。第一极耳120a和第二极耳120b的极性相反。例如,当第一极耳120a为阴极极耳时,第二极耳120b为阳极极耳。阴极极耳可以由阴极极片上未涂覆阴极活性物质层的部分层叠形成,阳极极耳可以由阳极极片上未涂覆阳极活性物质层的部分层叠形成。
电池单体100上还设置有电极端子130,电极端子130用于与电极组件120电连接,以输出电池单体100的电能。电极端子130可以包括阴极电极端子和阳极电极端子,阴极电极端子用于与阴极极耳电连接,阳极电极端子用于与阳极极耳电连接。阴极电极端子与阴极极耳可以直接连接,也可以间接连接,阳极电极端子与阳极极耳可以直接连接,也可以间接连接。示例性的,阴极电极端子通过一个连接构件140与阴极极耳电连接,阳极电极端子通过一个连接构件140与阳极极耳电连接。
在本申请实施例中,电极组件可以通过卷绕的方式制备,例如,图3示出了加工电极组件120的装置的结构示意图,图4为电极组件120的分解结构示意图。如图3和图4所示,电极组件120可以包括第一极片121、第二极片122和隔离膜123,隔离膜123用于隔离第一极片121和第二极片122。第一极片121连接第一极耳1211,第二极片122连接第二极耳1221,图4示出的是第一极耳1211和第二极耳1221分别设置于电极组件120的两端为例的示意图,但本实施例并不限于此。
具体地,如图3和图4所示,在加工该电极组件120时,在进行卷绕之前,先将第一极片组件和第二极片组件切断,以获得预设长度的第一极片121和第二极片122,其中,该切断后的第一极片121和第二极片122、隔离膜123可以分别设置于多个过辊组件101上,以用于后续卷绕过程。从图3可以看出,电极组件中可以设置多层隔离膜123,以保证第一极片121和第二极片122之间的绝缘。在进行卷绕时,卷针102夹持隔离膜123的卷绕起始端,若卷针夹持多个隔离膜123,则多个隔离膜123的卷绕起始端基本对齐,卷针106起卷后,再将切断的预设长度的第一极片121和第二极片122由隔离膜123的摩擦力分别带入进行卷绕,卷绕后获得电极组件120。
图5示出了本申请实施例提供的一种电极组件120在第一方向W和第二方向T形成的平面上的截面示意图,其中,第二方向T垂直于电池单体的厚度方向,第三方向Z垂直于第二方向T且平行于电极组件120的极片,第一方向W垂直于第二方向T和第三方向Z形成的平面。图6示出的是电极组件120中的第一极片121在相同平面上的截面示意图。如图4至图6所示,电极组件120包括第一极片121、第二极片122和隔离膜123,第一极片121、第二极片122和隔离膜123卷绕形成电极组件120,隔离膜123用于隔离第一极片121和第二极片122,第一极片121和第二极片122的极性相反;其中,第一极片121包括第一区域1211和第二区域1212,第一区域1211和第二区域1212沿卷绕方向依次交替设置并连接,所述电极组件120卷绕后,所述第二区域1212至少部分位于所述第一极片121的弯曲部,所述第一区域1211涂覆有第一活性材料,所述第二区域1212涂覆有第二活性材料,所述第二活性材料的膨胀率小于所述第一活性材料的膨胀率。
在电极组件120的生产过程中,第一极片121、第二极片122和隔离膜123在卷针102的带动下卷绕为截面为圆形的电极组件120,再对卷绕后的电极组件120进行下压,以避免卷绕形成的电极组件120出现内圈蓬松开口的现象,同时在一些非圆柱体形状的电池单体的生产过程中,例如方形电池单体,也能够使得电极组件120的形状适应壳体的形状。因此,在本申请实施例中,电极组件120的截面可以如图5所示。
以电极组件120中的第一极片121为例,卷绕后的第一极片121可以包括多个平面部和多个弯曲部,平面部指的是图5所示的电极组件的截面上近似平行的表面,弯曲部指的是图5所示的电极组件的截面上近似圆弧的部分。第二区域1212至少部分位于所述第一极片121的弯曲部,第一区域1211至少部分位于第一极片121的平面部上,并与第二区域1212连接。第一区域1211和第二区域1212沿卷绕方向依次交替设置可以如图5所示,从第一极片121的卷绕起始位置A1开始,设置有第一个第一区域1211,沿卷绕方向,设置有第一个第二区域1212,该第一个第二区域1212与第一个第一区域1211连接;继续沿卷绕方向,设置有第二个第一区域1211,该第二个第一区域1211与第一个第二区域1212连接。以此类推,第一区域1211与第二区域1212沿卷绕方向依次交替设置并连接,从第二个第一区域1211开始,每个第一区域1211连接两个相邻的第二区域1212。第一极片121可以由第二区域1212收尾,在第一极片121的卷绕收尾位置A2,第二区域1212可以位于弯曲部的一部分。
在一种可能的实施方式中,第二区域1212可以全部位于弯曲部。如图5所示,第二区域1212可以位于第一极片121的整个弯曲部,则第一区域1211可以位于第一极片121的整个平面部。如图6所示,第二区域1212可以位于第一极片121的弯曲部的一部分,例如第一极片121的弯曲部中位于一定角度范围内的部分,则第一区域1211为第一极片121中除第二区域1212之外的部分,也就是说,第一区域1211包括第一极片121上平面部和弯曲部的一部分。参考图6,沿卷绕方向,第一个第一区域1211可以包括一个平面部分和下一个弯曲部的一部分,第二个第一区域1211可以包括上一个弯曲部的一部分、平面部分和下一个弯曲部的一部分。以此类推,第一区域1211与第二区域1212沿卷绕方向依次交替设置并连接。
在另一种可能的实施方式中,第二区域1212可以只有一部分位于弯曲部,如图7所示,第二区域1212包括第一极片121的平面部的一部分和弯曲部,则第一区域1211可以位于第一极片121的平面部的一部分。参考图7,沿卷绕方向,第一个第一区域1211可以包括平面部的一部分,第一个第二区域1212可以包括上一个平面部的一部分、弯曲部和下一个平面部的一部分。以此类推,第一区域1211与第二区域1212沿卷绕方向依次交替设置并连接。
第一区域1211和第二区域1212上可以涂覆不同的活性材料,例如膨胀率不同的活性材料。具体地,第一区域1211可以涂覆有第一活性材料,第二区域1212可以涂覆有第二活性材料,第一活性材料的膨胀率与于第二活性材料的膨胀率不同。膨胀率指的是在电极组件的使用过程中,极片的厚度随着充放电次数的增加而增加的比例,例如,第一活性物质的膨胀率指的是第一活性物质位于的第一极片的部分的厚度随着充放电次数的增加而增加的比例。膨胀率可以根据新电池单体的极片厚度和老化电池单体的极片厚度来计算。具体地,将处于满充状态的新电池单体的第一极片拆解出来,分别测量出新电池单体的第一区域的厚度为M 1、第二区域的厚度为M 2;再将处于满充状态的老化电池单体的第一极片拆解出来,分别测量出老化电池单体的第一区域的厚度为N 1、第二区域的厚度为N 2,则第一区域上涂覆的第一活性物质的膨胀率为M 1/N 1- 1,第二区域上涂覆的第二活性物质的膨胀率为M 2/N 2-1。在本申请实施例中,第二活性物质的膨胀率M 2/N 2-1小于第一活性物质的膨胀率M 1/N 1-1。
极片厚度的增加主要是由于集流体上活性物质本身的晶格膨胀、极片的老化、副产物堆积、析锂等因素。在其他条件都相同的情况下,极片的膨胀率越大,极片的厚度增加就越大,产生的膨胀力也就越大,而膨胀力往往是造成极片断裂的主要原因。尤其是在卷绕式的电极组件120中,电极组件120受到膨胀力后,电极组件120的弯曲部相较于平面部更容易发生断裂。因此,可以在第二区域1212涂覆膨胀率更小的第二活性材料,这样在电池单体的充放电过程中,第二活性材料在第二区域1212上膨胀的程度较小,能够减少第一极片121在第二区域1212受到的膨胀力。同时,也可以针对传统电极组件120中受到膨胀力较大的区域,涂覆膨胀率较小的活性物质,减少该区域受到的膨胀力。
通过在第一极片121的第一区域和第二区域涂覆膨胀率不同的活性物质,在电池单体的充放电过程中,由于不同的活性材料的性能不同,第一极片121上弯曲部与平面部受到的膨胀力也不同,通过合理的设计,能够减少极片的弯曲部断裂的可能性,保证电极组件120在使用过程中的安全性能。同时,本申请实施例提供的极片上不存在留白区域,也能够保证电池单体的能量密度。
根据本申请的一些实施例,可选地,第二极片122包括第三区域1221和第四区域1222,第三区域1221和第四区域1222沿卷绕方向依次交替设置并连接,电极组件120卷绕后,第四区域1222至少部分位于第二极片122的弯曲部,第三区域1221涂覆有第三活性材料,第四区域1222涂覆有第四活性材料,第四活性材料的膨胀率小于第三活性材料的膨胀率。
与第一极片121类似,第二极片122也可以设置有不同的区域,并且在不同区域上涂覆不同的活性材料。在第二极片122中,第四区域1222可以全部位于弯曲部,例如位于第二极片122的整个弯曲部,或者位于第二极片122的弯曲部中的一定角度范围内的部分;或者,第四区域1222可以只有一部分位于弯曲部,例如第四区域1222可以包括第二极片122的平面部的一部分和弯曲部。第三区域1221与第四区域1222连接,且沿卷绕方向依次交替设置。以图5为例,图5示出的是第四区域1222位于第二极片122的整个弯曲部的情况。从第二极片122的卷绕起始位置B1开始,设置有第一个第三区域1221,该第一个第三区域1221包括第二极片122上从卷绕起始位置B1开始的平面部,沿卷绕方向,设置有第一个第四区域1222,该第一个第四区域1222包括与第一个第三区域1221连接的弯曲部,继续沿卷绕方向,设置有第二个第三区域1221。以此类推,第二极片122上可以设置多个第三区域1221和第四区域1222。第二极片122可以由第四区域1222收尾,在第二极片122的卷绕收尾位置B2,第四区域1222可以只包括弯曲部的一部分。
第二极片122的第三区域1221也可以涂覆有第三活性材料,第四区域1222涂覆有第四活性材料,其中,第四活性材料的膨胀率可以小于第三活性材料的膨胀率。则在电池单体的充放电过程中,第四活性材料在第四区域上膨胀的程度小于第三活性 材料在第三区域上膨胀的程度,能够降低第二极片122在第四区域受到的膨胀力。同时,第二极片122上充分涂覆活性物质,也能够保证第二极片122上的能量密度。
通过在第二极片122的第三区域和第四区域涂覆膨胀率不同的活性物质,能够更大程度地区别电极组件120的平面部与弯曲部受到的膨胀力,进一步减少极片的弯曲部断裂的可能性,保证电极组件120在使用过程中的安全性能。同时在第一极片121和第二极片122上设置不同区域,还可以根据需要涂覆不同性质的活性物质,使得电池单体的设计更加灵活,从而满足更多样的需求。
根据本申请的一些实施例,可选地,第一活性材料的膨胀率与第二活性材料的膨胀率的差值属于(0%,4%)。
在电池单体的充放电过程中,如果第一活性材料的膨胀率与第二活性材料的膨胀率的差值过大,有可能会使得第一区域和第二区域所在的第一极片的部分的厚度增长出现差异,严重时可能导致第一区域和第二区域上涂覆的活性材料出现明显的台阶结构,使得第一极片的第二区域与隔离膜分离,影响电极组件正常的电化学反应。因此,合适的差值范围既可以减少极片的弯曲部断裂的可能性,也有利于保证电极组件在电池单体中的正常使用。
根据本申请的一些实施例,可选地,第二活性材料的粉料OI值小于第一活性材料的粉料OI值。
活性材料的粉料OI值与活性材料在充放电过程中的膨胀程度有关,在相同的充放电条件下,活性材料的粉料OI值越大,活性物质所在的极片厚度增加得越大。因此,在选择第二活性材料时,可以选择粉料OI值较小的活性材料,有利于降低第二活性材料的膨胀率。具体地,第二活性材料的粉料OI值可以为0.5-7。
可选地,活性材料的粉料OI值G OI与粉料的粒径D50(μm)可以满足2.8≤100/(D50+2.8×G OI)≤12,当一种活性材料可以满足上述不等式,则该活性材料可以具有较好的动力学性能。在本申请实施例中,第二活性材料的粉料OI值G OI与粉料的粒径D50(μm)可以满足4≤100/(D50+2.8×G OI)≤8.5,从而进一步提高电极组件在第二区域的动力学性能,降低第二区域析锂的可能性,减少第二区域由于析锂导致的极片厚度增加。
可选地,活性材料的粉料在3000kg×G的压力下,粉料的压实密度P3k(g/cm 3)与活性材料的平均粒径Dv50(μm)可以满足0.15≤1/Dv50+0.2/P3k≤1,以使得活性材料具有较好的动力学性能,其中,G为重力加速度。在本申请实施例中,第二活性材料的粉料压实密度P3k(g/cm 3)与第二活性材料的平均粒径Dv50(μm)可以满足0.15≤1/Dv50+0.2/P3k≤0.5,从而进一步提高电极组件在第二区域的动力学性能,降低第二区域析锂的可能性,减少第二区域由于析锂导致的极片厚度增加。
通过选择合适的活性物质粉料来制备电极组件,有利于保证第二活性材料的膨胀率小于第一活性材料的膨胀率,同时也可以提高电极组件的的动力学性能,降低极片析锂的可能性,减少由于析锂导致的极片厚度增加。
根据本申请的一些实施例,可选地,第二活性材料的压实密度小于第一活 性材料的压实密度。
活性材料的压实密度与电池单体的容量、内阻、循环性能等密切相关,可以在制备电极组件的辊压工序中,通过调节活性材料的压实密度来改变活性材料辊压后的OI值。活性材料辊压后的OI值越大,活性材料所在的极片越脆越硬,也就越容易发生断裂。因此,第二活性材料的压实密度小于第一活性材料的压实密度,有利于实现第二活性材料辊压后的OI值小于第一活性材料辊压后的OI值,从而在充放电过程中,使得第二活性材料所在的极片增加的厚度小于第一活性材料所在的极片增加的厚度。
为了保证新制备的电极组件的第一区域和第二区域的厚度一致,当第一活性材料和第二活性材料采取压实密度不同的两种材料时,第一极片上涂覆的第一活性材料和第二活性材料的质量也有所差异。具体地,在第一区域涂覆质量为m 1的第一活性物质,该第一活性物质的压实密度为PD 1;在第二区域涂覆质量为m 2的第二活性物质,该第二活性物质的压实密度为PD 2。则m 1和m 2之间可以满足m 1=PD 1/PD 2*m 2
可选地,第一极片上的活性材料辊压后的OI值V OI与第一极片上的活性材料的压实密度PD之间的关系可以满足0.7≤(80/V OI+43/PD)×PD/V OI≤21.5,以保证电池单体在大倍率快速充电下的循环寿命。在本申请实施例中,第二活性材料的辊压后的OI值V OI和压实密度PD可以满足1.8≤(80/V OI+43/PD)×PD/V OI≤16,进一步提高第二区域的充电速度和循环寿命。
选择压实密度合适的活性材料,有利于保证充放电过程中第二活性材料增加的厚度小于第一活性材料增加的厚度,减少第二区域所在的极片断裂的可能性,保证电极组件的充放电性能以及电极组件在使用过程中的安全性能。
根据本申请的一些实施例,可选地,电极组件120卷绕后,第二区域1212具有第一弧度,第一弧度为第二区域1212位于电极组件120的弯曲部的部分对应的弧度。
在图5示出的截面中,第一极片121的弯曲部位于电极组件120沿第一方向W的两端。将第一极片121的弯曲部近似为半圆弧,则第一弧度指的是第一极片121的第二区域1212在半圆弧上占据的部分对应的弧度。
在电极组件120沿第一方向W的一端,第二区域1212可以包括在(0,π]弧度范围内的弯曲部。类似地,在电极组件120沿第一方向W的另一端,第二区域1212也可以包括在(0,π]弧度范围内的弯曲部。在图5中,第二区域1212位于电极组件120的弯曲部的部分对应的弧度为π,即第一弧度为π。在另一种可能的实施方式中,例如图7所示的第一极片中,第二区域1212的一部分位于电极组件120的平面部,另一部分位于电极组件120的弯曲部,则可以从图7中看出,第二区域1212位于电极组件120的弯曲部的部分对应的弧度也是π,即第一弧度也为π。
可选地,第二区域1212位于电极组件120的弯曲部的部分对应的弧度也可以为任意角度。如图6所示,在电极组件120沿第一方向W的一端,第二区域1212在弯曲部对应的第一弧度为θ1;在电极组件120沿第一方向W的另一端,第二区域1212 在弯曲部对应的第一弧度为θ2。θ1和θ2均小于π弧度,θ1和θ2可以为相同的弧度,也可以根据需求设计不同的值。
这样可以根据需求更合理地设置第二区域1212的范围,从而有针对性地减少极片的弯曲部断裂的可能性。
可选地,卷绕后的第一极片121的最后一个的第二区域1212对应的第一弧度可以属于[π/2,π]。
如图5所示,第一极片121的卷绕收尾位置A2和第二极片122的卷绕收尾位置B2均位于第一极片121的弯曲部上,在一种可能的实施方式中,第一极片121的卷绕收尾部分沿卷绕方向远离第二极片122的卷绕收尾部分。尤其是在第一极片121为阳极极片,第二极片122为阴极极片的情况下,为了减少电极组件120的析锂,需要保证第一极片121覆盖第二极片122。若第一弧度小于π/2弧度,则留给第二极片122的最后一个第二区域1212的位置较小,容易因为生产误差而形成不合格的产品;若第一弧度大于π弧度,则第一极片121的卷绕收尾位置会位于第一极片121的平面部,影响电极组件的平面部的平整度,容易产生应力集中的风险,不利于保证电池单体的安全性能。
可选地,卷绕后的第一极片121的最后一个的第二区域1212对应的第一弧度可以进一步属于[π/2,3π/4]。
根据本申请的一些实施例,可选地,第一极片121为阳极极片,第二极片122为阴极极片,第一极片121覆盖第二极片122。
阳极极片上涂覆的往往是石墨、或石墨与其它活性物质按不同质量比得到的混合物等活性材料,这些活性材料可以具有快充性能,快充性能指的是在25℃下,对3%-80%SOC的电池进行充电时的等效倍率大于或等于2.2C。具体地,以等效倍率大于或等于2.2C满充、以1C满放重复10次后,再将电池以等效倍率大于或等于2.2C的充电流程进行满充,拆解出阳极极片并观察表面析锂情况,若阳极极片表面无析锂区域,则认为该活性材料具有快充性能。
活性材料在充放电过程中的膨胀往往在阳极极片上体现得较为明显,因此可以仅在阳极极片上设置第一区域和第二区域,且在阳极极片上的第一区域1211涂覆的活性材料的膨胀率大于第二区域1212涂覆的活性材料的膨胀率,至少能够减少阳极极片的弯曲部断裂的可能性。可选地,也可以同时在阴极极片上设置第三区域和第四区域,且在阴极极片的第三区域1221涂覆的活性材料的膨胀率也可以大于在第四区域1222涂覆的活性材料的膨胀率,从而能够在更大程度上减少极片的弯曲部断裂的可能性。另外,也可以仅在阴极极片上设置不同区域,且在不同区域涂覆膨胀率不同的活性材料,来减少阴极极片的弯曲部断裂的可能性。
为了避免析锂现象的发生,阳极极片可以覆盖阴极极片。阳极极片的总长度可以大于阴极极片的总长度,在卷绕过程中,阳极极片可以先于阴极极片进入卷绕,且晚于阴极极片结束卷绕。在阳极极片、阴极极片和隔离膜123卷绕形成的电极组件120中,阳极极片包裹在阴极极片的外层。
这样可以减少电极组件120析锂的可能,保证电池单体的电极组件120在使用过程中的充放电性能和安全性能。
根据本申请的一些实施例,可选地,沿卷绕方向,阳极极片的第一个第一区域1211覆盖阴极极片的第一个第三区域1221,阳极极片的最后一个第二区域1212覆盖所述阴极极片的最后一个第四区域1222。
如图5所示,在阳极极片和阴极极片的卷绕起始部分,在第一个第一区域1211和第一个第三区域1221的结束位置基本对齐的情况下,第一个第一区域1211的长度大于第一个第三区域1221的长度;在阳极极片和阴极极片的卷绕收尾部分,在最后一个第二区域1212和最后一个第四区域1222的起始位置基本对齐的情况下,最后一个第二区域1212位于弯曲部的部分对应的弧度大于最后一个第四区域1222位于弯曲部的部分对应的弧度。
这样可以保证在卷绕后的电极组件中,阳极极片充分覆盖阴极极片,避免电极组件120的析锂,提高电池单体的安全性能。
根据本申请的一些实施例,可选地,第二区域1212具有第一弧度,第四区域1222具有第二弧度,第一弧度为第二区域1212位于阳极极片的弯曲部的部分对应的弧度,第二弧度为第四区域1222位于阴极极片的弯曲部的部分对应的弧度,沿卷绕方向,阳极极片的最后一个第二区域1212的第一弧度与阴极极片的最后一个第四区域1222的第二弧度的差值属于(0,π)。
以图8为例,图8为图5中的电极组件120省略了隔离膜123的示意图。沿卷绕方向,阳极极片的最后一个第二区域1212为图8中的C部分,阴极极片的最后一个第四区域1222为图8中的D部分,则C部分对应的第一弧度和D部分对应的第二弧度的差值即为C部分长于D部分的长度。若C部分对应的第一弧度和D部分对应的第二弧度的差值为0,则在生产过程中,稍有误差就有可能导致阳极极片不能完全覆盖阴极极片,带来析锂风险;若C部分对应的第一弧度和D部分对应的第二弧度的差值为π,则阳极极片的卷绕收尾位置和阴极极片的卷绕收尾位置这两者中至少有一者会落在电极组件120的平面部,影响平面部的平整度,容易产生应力集中的风险,影响电池单体的安全性能。同时,两者对应的弧度的差为π会导致阳极极片的最后一个第二区域1212不能发生电化学反应以提供电能,导致活性材料的浪费,也不利于提高电池单体的能量密度。
在阳极极片和阴极极片的卷绕收尾位置设置合适的弧度范围可以降低电极组件120的析锂风险,同时有利于提高电池单体的能量密度。
在本申请实施例中,如图8和图9所示,以C部分为阳极极片沿卷绕方向的第n个第二区域、D部分为阴极极片沿卷绕方向的第n个第四区域为例,阳极极片第n-1个第二区域的长度L n-1大于阴极极片第n-1个第四区域的长度K n-1,阳极极片第n-2个第二区域的长度L n-2大于阴极极片第n-2个第四区域的长度K n-2,以此类推,阳极极片第1个第二区域的长度L 1大于阴极极片第1个第四区域的长度K 1。这样有利于保证阳极极片和阴极极片上的过渡点对齐,避免随着卷绕半径的增大而导致第二区域与第四 区域错位,保证第二区域与第四区域的至少部分位于相应极片的弯曲部。
在同一极片中,沿卷绕方向,除了最后一个第二区域之外,后一个第二区域的长度大于前一个第二区域的长度。如图8和图9所示,以第一极片为例,第n-1个第二区域的长度L n-1大于第n-2个第二区域的长度L n-2,第n-2个第二区域的长度L n-2大于第n-3个第二区域的长度L n-3,以此类推,第二个第二区域的长度L 2大于第一个第二区域的长度L 1。这样可以保证第一极片上的过渡点对齐,避免随着卷绕半径的增大而导致第一极片上的第二区域错位,保证第二区域的至少部分位于第一极片的弯曲部。
在一种可能的实施方式中,第一区域和第二区域的过渡点可以位于第一极片的弯曲部。由于第一活性材料和第二活性材料的膨胀率不同,在第一区域和第二区域的过渡点处产生膨胀时增加的厚度也具有一定的差异。因此过渡点设置于第一极片的弯曲部,可以为过渡点处的膨胀差异预留空间,避免电池单体的外壳对过渡点产生挤压而造成第一极片上的应力集中,有利于保证电极组件的安全性能。
为了尽可能地对齐第一区域和第二区域的过渡点,沿卷绕方向,第n-1个第二区域和第n-3个第二区域的差可以大于0.9*(2*S+Duu+Da*2+Dll+Dc*2)*θ2,且小于1.1*(2*S+Duu+Da*2+Dll+Dc*2)*θ2,其中,如图10所示,S为隔离膜的厚度,Duu为第一极片的集流体的厚度,Dll为第二极片的集流体的厚度,Da为第一极片的集流体的一侧涂覆的第一活性材料的厚度,Dc为第二极片的集流体的一侧涂覆的第二活性材料的厚度,θ2为第n-1个第二区域和第n-3个第二区域在第一极片的弯曲部上的部分对应的角度。
类似地,第n-2个第二区域和第n-4个第二区域的差可以大于0.9*(2*S+Duu+Da*2+Dll+Dc*2)*θ1,且小于1.1*(2*S+Duu+Da*2+Dll+Dc*2)*θ1,其中,θ1为第n-2个第二区域和第n-4个第二区域在第一极片的弯曲部上的部分对应的角度。
根据本申请的一些实施例,可选地,沿卷绕方向,阳极极片的最后一个第二区域1212与阴极极片的最后一个第四区域1222对应的弧长的差值属于(5mm,3π/4*R mm),其中R为阳极极片最后一个第二区域1212对应的半径。
在阳极极片和阴极极片卷绕为电极组件120之前,阳极极片和阴极极片均为预设长度的极片,则阳极极片的最后一个第二区域1212与卷绕后的阴极极片的最后一个第二区域1212对应的弧长的差,即为图8中的C部分和D部分展开为平面后两者的长度的差。其中,可以将第二区域1212和第四区域1222近似为圆弧进行计算。图8中的C部分和D部分展开后的示意图可以如图9所示。
C部分和D部分的长度的差过小,例如小于或等于5mm,在卷绕为电极组件120后可能会无法满足阳极极片包裹在阴极极片外面的要求;C部分和D部分的差过大,C部分空余的极片长度较大,导致C部分涂覆的活性材料的浪费,不利于提高电池单体的能量密度。
阳极极片和阴极极片之间的长度关系具有合适的范围,可以保证卷绕后的阳极极片包裹在阴极极片的外侧,避免发生析锂,并且能够尽可能地提高电池单体的 能量密度。
可选地,沿卷绕方向,阳极极片的最后一个第二区域1212与阴极极片的最后一个第二区域1212对应的弧长的差值可以属于(10mm,π/2*R mm)。
这样可以进一步地在保证卷绕后的阳极极片包裹在阴极极片的外侧,从而能够在避免电极组件120发生析锂的同时,也能够尽可能地提高电池单体的能量密度。
根据本申请的一些实施例,可选地,沿卷绕方向,阳极极片的第一个第一区域1211与阴极极片的第一个第三区域1221的长度之差属于[20mm,60mm]。
以图8为例,卷绕后的阳极极片的第一个第一区域1211为图8中的E部分,卷绕后的阴极极片的第一个第三区域1221为图8中的F部分,两者的长度之差即为E部分大于F部分的长度。
两者的长度之差如果为0,则在生产过程中,稍有误差就有可能使得阴极极片的卷绕起始位置B1超出阳极极片的卷绕起始位置A1,带来析锂风险;两者的长度之差如果过大,例如大于60mm,则会导致阳极极片的第一个第一区域1211中存在较多区域不能与阴极极片上的活性物质发生电化学反应来提供电能,导致活性材料的浪费,也不利于提高电池单体的能量密度。
在阳极极片和阴极极片的卷绕起始位置设置合适的尺寸范围可以降低电极组件120的析锂风险,同时有利于提高电池单体的能量密度。
可选地,沿卷绕方向,阳极极片的第一个第一区域1211与阴极极片的第一个第一区域1211的长度之差可以属于[20,40]mm。
这样可以进一步地保证卷绕后的阳极极片包裹在阴极极片的外侧,从而能够在避免电极组件120发生析锂的同时,也能够尽可能地提高电池单体的能量密度。
本申请还提供了一种电池单体,包括上述实施例中任一实施例所述的电极组件120。
本申请还提供了一种电池,包括上述实施例中任一实施例所述的电池单体。
本申请还提供了一种用电装置,包括上述实施例中任一实施例所述的电池,该电池用于为用电装置提供电能。
虽然已经参考优选实施例对本申请进行了描述,但在不脱离本申请的范围的情况下,可以对其进行各种改进并且可以用等效物替换其中的部件。尤其是,只要不存在结构冲突,各个实施例中所提到的各项技术特征均可以任意方式组合起来。本申请并不局限于文中公开的特定实施例,而是包括落入权利要求的范围内的所有技术方案。
