需要说明的是,本申请的具体实施方式中,以锂离子电池作为电化学装置的例子来解释本申请,但是本申请的电化学装置并不仅限于锂离子电池。具体技术方案如下:
本申请的第一方面提供了一种电化学装置,其包括正极极片和负极极片,正极极片包括正极集流体和正极材料层,正极材料层包括第一正极材料层和第二正极材料层,第一正极材料层设置于正极集流体和第二正极材料层之间。第一正极材料层包括第一活性材料,第一活性材料的脱锂产物包括Li5-xFeO4-y、Li5-xCoO4-y、Li2-zMnO2、Li1.2-rNi0.13Fe0.13Mn0.54O2或Li1-tFePO4中的至少一种,其中,4≤x≤5,2≤y≤3,1.6≤z≤2,1≤r≤1.2,0.8≤t≤1。第二正极材料层包括第二活性材料,第二活性材料包括钴酸锂、镍钴锰酸锂、镍钴铝酸锂、磷酸铁锂或锰酸锂中的至少一种;负极极片包括负极材料层,负极材料层包括硅元素,基于负极材料层的质量,硅元素的质量百分含量为1%至50%,优选1%至20%;例如硅元素的质量百分含量可以为1%、2.2%、5%、8%、10%、12.2%、14.2%、17%、20%、23%、26%、30%、33%、35%、37%、40%、43%、45%、47%、50%或为其中任意两个数值组成的范围。正极极片中第一活性材料的脱锂产物的质量为A mg/1540mm2,负极极片中硅元素的质量为B mg/1540mm2,29%≤A/B≤230%,优选为39%≤A/B≤200%。例如A/B的值可以为29%、34%、39%、45%、47%、50%、55%、58%、60%、62%、69%、70%、75%、78%、80%、85%、88%、92%、95%、100%、105%、110%、114%、116%、130%、150%、160%、175%、190%、210%、215%、230%或为其中任意两个数值组成的范围。
负极材料层包括硅元素并调控硅元素的质量百分含量在上述范围内,可以使得电化学装置具有更高的能量密度。选用上述第二活性材料作为正极主材,可以使得电化学装置具有较好的循环性能和较高的首次库伦效率。在电化学装置的首次充电时,含硅负极表面的固态电解质界面膜(SEI膜)的形成会消耗大量正极脱出的活性锂,造成电化学装置的首次库伦效率降低以及不可逆的容量损失。发明人发现,采用第一活性材料进行补锂,第一活性材料具有较高的比容量和较低的首次库伦效率。在电化学装置首次充电后,上述第一活性材料脱锂后得到第一活性材料的脱锂产物。在充电过程中,第一活性材料脱锂,得到第一活性材料的脱锂产物,第一活性材料脱出的锂离子可以在负极代替第二活性材料脱出的锂离子消耗成膜,并且在首次脱锂后锂离子回嵌少,有利于减少第二活性材料首次充电时不可逆容量的损失,提高第二活性材料的首次库伦效率,从而有利于提高二次电池的首次库伦效率和循环性能。同时,具有上述特征,可以使得正极极片具有合适的电阻率、正极材料层与正极集流体之间具有较高的粘结力,因此还能够提高电化学装置的安全性能。从而,采用脱锂产物为上述物质的第一活性材料与上述第二活性材料以及含硅的负极极片进行搭配,有利于可以使得电化学装置具有高能量密度的同时提高其循环性能和安全性能。A/B的值过小时,例如小于29%,SEI膜的形成会消耗第二活性材料中的锂离子,使得活性锂减少,造成电化学装置的首次库伦效率降低以及不可逆的容量损失,同时也不利于提高锂离子电池的安全性能。A/B的值过大时,例如大于230%,第一活性材料和硅元素搭配不合理,同时,第一活性材料与负极材料层以及电解液之间发生过多副反应,会对电化学装置的电性能影响较大,在循环过程中容量衰减较快,不利于改善电化学装置的循环性能。因此,选用第二活性材料以及脱锂产物为上述物质的第一活性材料,负极材料层包括硅元素并调控其质量百分含量以及A/B的值在上述范围内,可以使得电化学装置同时具有高能量密度、良好的安全性能和循环性能。
在一些实施方案中,上述首次充电过程的流程可以为:在45℃下,首先以0.1倍率(C)恒流充电10min,随后以0.5C恒流充电至电压Q(Q≥4.45V),再恒压充电至电流小于等于0.05C。例如Q可以为4.45V、4.48V、4.5V、4.53V、4.6V、4.7V或为其中任意两个数值组成的范围。在需要进行化成的电化学装置中,上述首次充电流程可以为化成过程。
本申请中,如图1所示,正极极片10包括第一正极材料层11、第二正极材料层12和正极集流体13,第一正极材料层11设置于正极集流体13和第二正极材料层12之间,可以使得对正极集流体的保护性以及正极材料层的层间粘结更好,减少外部机械破坏引起的内短路概率和内短路焦耳热,更有利于使得电化学装置具有高能量密度的同时具有良好的安全性能。
在本申请的一些实施方案中,第一活性材料的脱锂产物包括LiFeO2、CoO2、MnO2、Ni0.13Fe0.13Mn0.54O2、FePO4、FeO2、Fe2O3或FeO中的至少一种。第一正极材料层中的第一活性材料的脱锂产物包括上述材料,第一活性材料脱出的锂离子可以在负极代替第二活性材料脱出的锂离子消耗成膜,并且在首次脱锂后锂离子回嵌少,有利于减少第二活性材料首次充电时不可逆容量的损失,提高第二活性材料的首次库伦效率,从而可以提高二次电池的首次库伦效率和循环性能,同时第一正极材料层具有合适的电阻率和良好的粘结性能,可以使得电化学装置具有高能量密度的同时提高其安全性能和循环性能。
在本申请的一些实施方案中,基于第一正极材料层的质量,第一活性材料的脱锂产物的质量百分含量为30%至96%,例如第一活性材料的脱锂产物的质量百分含量可以为30%、36%、40%、45%、50%、55%、58%、60%、62%、69%、70%、75%、78%、80%、85%、88%、92%、96%或为其中任意两个数值组成的范围。第一活性材料的脱锂产物的质量百分含量在上述范围内,有利于充分发挥第一活性材料的补锂作用,同时第一正极材料层具有合适的电阻率和良好的粘结性能,可以使得电化学装置具有高能量密度的同时提高其安全性能和循环性能。
通常情况下,可以通过改变制备过程中第一正极材料层中第一活性材料的质量百分含量调整第一活性材料的脱锂产物的质量百分含量。其他条件不变的情况下,第一活性材料的质量百分含量增大,第一活性材料的脱锂产物的质量百分含量增大;第一活性材料的质量百分含量减小,第一活性材料的脱锂产物的质量百分含量减小。
本申请对第一正极材料层中第一活性材料的质量百分含量没有特别限制,可以根据实际需要的第一活性材料的脱锂产物的质量百分含量进行调整,只要能实现本申请的目的即可。
