For example, it should be considered that a description of a range from 1 to 6 has specifically disclosed sub-ranges, such as from 1 to 3, from 1 to 4, from 1 to 5, from 2 to 4, from 2 to 6, from 3 to 6, etc., as well as single numbers within the range, such as1, 2,3, 4, 5, and 6, wherever applicable. In addition, whenever a numerical range is referred to herein, it is meant to include any reference number (fractional or integer) within the indicated range.
It is understood that lithium metal has both the lowest electrochemical potential (-3.04V vs. SHE), the ultra-high theoretical specific capacity (mAh g -1), and the low density (0.534 g cm -3), and is an ideal anode for the next generation of high energy density batteries.
However, lithium metal cannot generate a stable SEI film in commercial electrolyte, taking electrolyte comprising lithium hexafluorophosphate and organic carbonate as an example, SEI generated by decomposition of the electrolyte on a lithium negative electrode has the problem of porosity and looseness, the electrolyte and the lithium metal cannot be blocked, and the lithium metal is continuously consumed by reaction with the electrolyte in the circulation process; and the organic components in SEI are mainly, can not adapt to huge volume change in the lithium deposition process, and have the problem of easy breakage, the surface of fresh lithium leaks to cause uneven interface potential distribution, so that dendrite formation of uneven lithium deposition further causes volume increase, and interface degradation causes low coulombic efficiency and cycle life. In addition, how to solve the contradiction between the flame retardant property and the cycle property of the secondary battery is also a problem to be solved by researchers.
In view of the above, the present application provides an electrolyte suitable for an electric device, which has an effect of inhibiting dendrite growth of a lithium metal negative electrode and is intrinsically flame retardant; the lithium metal secondary battery with the electrolyte has higher cycle life and flame retardant property.
In a first aspect, embodiments of the present application provide an electrolyte comprising a lithium salt, an ether solvent, a fluoroether solvent, a pyrrole-type ionic liquid, and a phosphazene-type solvent. Wherein the lithium salt is used for providing lithium ions. The pyrrole type ionic liquid, the fluoroether solvent and the phosphazene solvent are cooperatively matched, so that the electrolyte has good flame retardance, and has higher cycle life and safety performance when being used for an electric device.
The fluoroether solvent in the present application means an ether solvent in which at least one hydrogen atom is replaced with a fluorine atom. Ionic liquids refer to liquids that are composed entirely of ions. Pyrrole-type ionic liquids refer to ionic liquids whose cations are derived from pyrrolidine and its derivatives.
In the electrolyte, the pyrrole type ionic liquid has low vapor pressure, high thermal stability and incombustibility; the fluoroether solvent and the phosphazene solvent have excellent flame retardance, and the flame retardance of the electrolyte can be effectively improved through the synergistic effect of the fluoroether solvent, the phosphazene solvent and the phosphazene solvent, and the safety performance of the secondary battery is improved.
It is understood that the solvent in the electrolyte is mainly used as a carrier for transporting lithium ions, and solvates lithium salt in the electrolyte to ensure the transportation of lithium ions. The pyrrole type ionic liquid plays a role in regulating and controlling lithium deposition, the reduction potential of cations is lower than that of lithium ions, the pyrrole type ionic liquid competes with the lithium ions to be adsorbed around the dendrites when dendrites exist, and the dendrite growth is inhibited due to the fact that the lithium ions are discharged through larger steric hindrance, anions of the pyrrole type ionic liquid participate in solvation of the lithium ions and formation of SEI, and meanwhile, the ionic liquid has incombustibility due to low vapor pressure and high thermal stability.
When the electrolyte provided by the application is used for a lithium metal secondary battery, due to the charge effect between anions and cations, anions are more distributed in the inner layer of a lithium ion solvation sheath compared with solvent molecules, the LUMO energy level (lowest unoccupied molecular orbital) of the anions of the lithium salt and the ionic liquid is lower than that of the solvent molecules, and the anions are preferentially reduced on the surface of a lithium metal negative electrode to form an SEI film with high inorganic component content. The cationic reduction potential of the pyrrole-type ionic liquid is lower than that of lithium ions, the pyrrole-type ionic liquid and the lithium ions are in competition adsorption around the dendrites when the dendrites exist, and the lithium ions are discharged by means of steric hindrance, so that dendrite growth is inhibited, and the effects of regulating and controlling lithium deposition and improving the safety and the cycling stability of the secondary battery can be further achieved.
Meanwhile, the ether solvent plays a role of competing with anions for solvation, is beneficial to the solvation/desolvation process of lithium ions, reduces the interface transfer impedance of lithium ions, is beneficial to uniform deposition of lithium, and can be used for stably forming a film on lithium metal. The fluoroether solvent does not participate in lithium ion solvation, can regulate and control the size of a lithium ion solvation structure, improves lithium ion transmission kinetics, and plays roles of reducing the viscosity of electrolyte and increasing wettability.
In addition, the phosphazene solvent has weak solvation capability, can promote the interaction of lithium ions and anions, has higher thermal decomposition temperature and flame retardant effect, and can release phosphorus to capture active groups to inhibit combustion reaction at high temperature.
In some embodiments of the present application, the lithium salt, ether solvent, fluoroether solvent, pyrrole-type ionic liquid and phosphazene solvent high concentration system (for example, the lithium salt concentration is more than 3M/L, that is, the lithium salt concentration in the electrolyte is more than 3.0M/L), and the high concentration lithium salt (for example, the lithium salt concentration is more than 3M/L) in the electrolyte can reduce the volatility of the inflammable solvent, so as to further improve the safety and the cycle performance of the secondary lithium battery of the present application.
In some embodiments of the application, the phosphazene machine solvent comprises a fluorophosphazene. The fluorinated phosphazene refers to a phosphazene compound substituted by fluorine-containing elements. The fluoro phosphazene is decomposed at the cathode to generate LiF and defluorinated phosphazene, the LiF has high mechanical property, the SEI stability is improved to inhibit dendrite growth, the defluorinated phosphazene is ring-opening polymerized at the anode to form a protective film, and the anode stability is improved. Illustratively, the phosphazene solvent comprises: any one or a combination of at least two of hexafluoro-cyclotriphosphazene, ethoxy-pentafluoro-cyclotriphosphazene and phenoxy-pentafluoro-cyclotriphosphazene.
In some embodiments of the application, the lithium salt is present in an amount of 5% to 40% by mass, preferably 10% to 30% by mass, based on the total mass of the electrolyte. It will be appreciated that too high a lithium salt content, for example above 40%, the viscosity of the electrolyte is too high, resulting in a lower conductivity; too low a lithium salt content, for example below 5%, the lithium ion content in the electrolyte is less, resulting in a lower conductivity.
Illustratively, the lithium salt comprises from 5% to 10% by mass based on the total mass of the electrolyte; or the mass ratio of the lithium salt is 10% -15%; or the mass ratio of the lithium salt is 15% -20%; or the mass ratio of the lithium salt is 20-25%, or the mass ratio of the lithium salt is 25-30%; or the mass ratio of the lithium salt is 30% -35%; or the mass ratio of the lithium salt is 35-40%. For another example, the lithium salt may be present in a mass ratio of 5%, or 8%, or 10%, or 12%, or 15%, or 18%, or 20%, or 23%, or 25%, or 28%, or 30%, or 32%, or 34%, or 35%, or 36%, or 38%, or 40%, based on the total mass of the electrolyte.
In some embodiments of the application, the ether solvent is present in an amount of 5% to 60% by mass, preferably 10% to 45% by mass, based on the total mass of the electrolyte. It will be appreciated that too high an ether non-aqueous solvent content, e.g. above 60%, does not form high concentrations of lithium salts; the content of the ether nonaqueous solvent is too low, for example, less than 5%, and the lithium salt cannot be dissociated.
Illustratively, the mass ratio of the ether solvent is 5% -10%; or the mass ratio of the lithium salt is 10% -15%; or the mass ratio of the ether solvent is 15% -20%; or the mass ratio of the ether solvent is 20-25%, or the mass ratio of the ether solvent is 25-30%; or the mass ratio of the ether solvent is 30% -35%; or the mass ratio of the ether solvent is 35-40%; or the mass ratio of the ether solvent is 40% -50%; or the mass ratio of the ether solvent is 50-60%. For another example, the ether solvent may be 5%, or 8%, or 10%, or 12%, or 15%, or 18%, or 20%, or 23%, or 25%, or 28%, or 30%, or 35%, or 40%, or 45%, or 50%, or 55%, or 60% by mass based on the total mass of the electrolyte. In some embodiments of the application, the fluoroether solvent is present in an amount of 5% to 60% by mass, preferably 10% to 45% by mass, based on the total mass of the electrolyte. It is understood that if the fluoroether solvent content in the electrolyte is too high, for example, higher than 60%, lithium salts are easily precipitated; if the fluoroether content in the electrolyte is too low, for example, less than 5%, the effect of adding the fluoroether solvent to the electrolyte is not desirable.
Illustratively, the mass ratio of the fluoroether solvent is 5% -10%; or the mass ratio of the fluoroether solvent is 10-15%; or the mass ratio of the fluoroether solvent is 15% -20%; or the mass ratio of the fluoroether solvent is 20-25%, or the mass ratio of the fluoroether solvent is 25-30%; or the mass ratio of the fluoroether solvent is 30% -35%; or the mass ratio of the fluoroether solvent is 35-40%; or the mass ratio of the fluoroether solvent is 40% -50%; or the mass ratio of the fluoroether solvent is 50-60%. For another example, the fluoroether solvent may be 5%, or 8%, or 10%, or 12%, or 15%, or 18%, or 20%, or 23%, or 25%, or 28%, or 30%, or 35%, or 40%, or 45%, or 50%, or 55%, or 60% by mass based on the total mass of the electrolyte.
In some embodiments of the application, the phosphazene solvent is present in an amount of 5 to 60 percent by mass, preferably 2 to 15 percent by mass, based on the total mass of the electrolyte. It will be appreciated that too high a level of phosphazene-based nonaqueous solvent, e.g. above 60%, the viscosity of the electrolyte is too great, resulting in a lower conductivity; if the phosphazene type nonaqueous solvent is too low, for example, less than 5%, the effect of adding the phosphazene type solvent to the electrolyte is not ideal.
Illustratively, the phosphazene solvent accounts for 5-10 percent by mass; or the mass ratio of the phosphazene solvent is 10-15 percent; or the mass ratio of the phosphazene solvent is 15-20 percent; or the mass ratio of the phosphazene solvent is 20-25%, or the mass ratio of the phosphazene solvent is 25-30%; or the mass ratio of the phosphazene solvent is 30-35 percent; or the mass ratio of the phosphazene solvent is 35-40 percent; or the mass ratio of the phosphazene solvent is 40-50%; or the mass ratio of the phosphazene solvent is 50-60 percent. For another example, the phosphazene solvent is 5%, or 8%, or 10%, or 12%, or 15%, or 18%, or 20%, or 23%, or 25%, or 28%, or 30%, or 35%, or 40%, or 45%, or 50%, or 55%, or 60% by mass based on the total mass of the electrolyte.
In some embodiments of the application, the pyrrole-type ionic liquid is present in an amount of 5% to 60% by mass, preferably 10% to 45% by mass, based on the total mass of the electrolyte. It is understood that if the pyrrole-type ionic liquid content in the electrolyte is too high, for example, higher than 60%, the viscosity of the electrolyte is easily excessive, so that the conductivity of the electrolyte is small; if the content of the pyrrole-type ionic liquid in the electrolyte is too low, for example, less than 5%, the effect of adding the pyrrole-type ionic liquid into the electrolyte is not ideal.
Illustratively, the mass ratio of the pyrrole-type ionic liquid is 5% -10% based on the total mass of the electrolyte; or the mass ratio of the pyrrole-type ionic liquid is 10% -15%; or the mass ratio of the pyrrole-type ionic liquid is 15% -20%; or the mass ratio of the pyrrole-type ionic liquid is 20-25%, or the mass ratio of the pyrrole-type ionic liquid is 25-30%; or the mass ratio of the pyrrole-type ionic liquid is 30% -35%; or the mass ratio of the pyrrole-type ionic liquid is 35% -40%; or the mass ratio of the pyrrole-type ionic liquid is 40% -50%; or the mass ratio of the pyrrole-type ionic liquid is 50% -60%. For another example, the pyrrole-type ionic liquid may be 5%, or 8%, or 10%, or 12%, or 15%, or 18%, or 20%, or 23%, or 25%, or 28%, or 30%, or 35%, or 40%, or 45%, or 50%, or 55%, or 60% by mass based on the total mass of the electrolyte.

For the secondary battery taking lithium metal as the negative electrode, as the cationic reduction potential of the pyrrole-type ionic liquid is lower than that of lithium ions, the pyrrole-type ionic liquid competes with the lithium ions to be adsorbed around the dendrites when the dendrites exist, and the dendrite growth is inhibited by means of steric hindrance of the pyrrole-type ionic liquid, so that the effects of regulating and controlling lithium deposition and improving the safety and the cycling stability of the secondary battery can be further achieved. Meanwhile, the fluoroether solvent can regulate and control the size of a lithium ion solvation structure, improve lithium ion transmission dynamics, play roles in reducing the viscosity of electrolyte and increasing wettability, and is beneficial to improving the cycle stability of the battery. In addition, pyrrole-type ionic liquid, fluoroether solvent and phosphazene solvent all have excellent flame retardance. Experiments prove that the electrolyte comprising the fluoroether solvent, the pyrrole-type ionic liquid and the phosphazene solvent has higher cycle life and safety performance when being used for an electric device, and effectively solves the problem of contradiction between the flame retardant performance and the cycle performance of the secondary battery.
