Description
本申请要求于2018年09月29日提交中国专利局、申请号为201811151916.1、发明名称为“一种正极极片以及使用该正极极片的锂离子电池”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
本申请涉及一种正极极片、使用该正极极片的锂离子电池、电池模块、电池包及装置。
锂离子电池由于具有能量密度高、循环寿命长、无污染等特点,使其在电动汽车领域具有广阔的应用前景。为了满足广大消费者对电动汽车续里程的要求,开发具有高比容量的正极活性材料是有效办法之一。
目前,锂镍钴锰三元材料由于具有较高的理论比容量和安全特性成为了研究的热点,然而锂镍钴锰三元材料中镍金属含量很高使得其具有很强的氧化性,导致电解液容易在正极表面发生电化学氧化反应,同时还会引起锂镍钴锰三元材料结构的变化,镍、钴等过渡金属发生还原反应而溶出,引起锂离子电池电化学性能的恶化,特别是高温性能明显恶化。此外,锂镍钴锰三元材料在制备过程中会加入过量锂盐来弥补烧结过程中造成的锂损失,这样在制得的正极活性材料表面都会存在少量的Li残余,其在高温下会以Li
2O的形式存在,当温度降低到室温以后,Li
2O会吸附空气中的CO
2和H
2O而形成LiOH和Li
2CO
3等残锂,这些残锂的存在会加剧锂离子电池的产气,恶化存储性能。锂镍钴锰三元材料通常是由一次颗粒团聚形成的二次颗粒形式,抗压强度较差,破碎后正极活性材料的比表面积显著增加,导致与电解液接触面积增大,锂离子电池的产气问题进一步恶化。
对电动汽车的应用而言,要求锂离子电池具有较长的循环寿命和存储寿命。较长的循环寿命和存储寿命是为了使电池具有更长的续航里程。此外,还要求锂离子电池具有稳定的加速性能和功率性能,这就要求锂离子电池还必须在长期的循环和存储过程中具有较低的内阻。
申请内容

下面详细说明根据本申请的正极极片、锂离子电池、电池模块、电池包及装置。
首先,说明根据本申请第一方面的正极极片,其包括正极集流体以及设置在正极集流体的至少一个表面上的正极活性物质层,所述正极活性物质层包含式(1)所示的正极活性物质:

m 式(1)
其中,0.95≤x≤1.05,0≤y≤1,0≤z≤1,0≤k≤1,0≤p≤0.1,y+z+k+p=1,1≤r≤2,0≤m≤2,m+r≤2,M选自Mn、Al中的一种或两种,Me选自Zr、Zn、Cu、Cr、Mg、Fe、V、Ti、Y、Nb中的一种或几种,A选自N、 F、S、Cl中的一种或几种。在所述正极活性物质层远离所述集流体的至少一个表面上设置有无机介电层,所述无机介电层不含粘结剂。所述正极极片的电阻R不高于8ohm。
本申请实施例的正极极片结构的示意图如图1~图3所示。在图1中,正极集流体521a的一个表面上设置有正极活性物质层521b,正极活性物质层521b的表面上设置有无机介电层521c。在图2和图3中,正极集流体521a的两个表面上均设置有正极活性物质层521b,在图2所示的正极极片中,两个正极活性物质层521b的表面上均设置有无机介电层521c;在图3所示的正极极片中,仅有一个正极活性物质层521b上设置有无机介电层521c。
在本申请第一方面的正极极片中,正极活性物质为克容量较高、但氧化性较强的三元正极材料,在上述正极活性物质层表面设置一层不含粘结剂的无机介电层,可以有效稳定正极极片表面活性材料的结构、避免过渡金属离子的溶出,同时,由于上述无机介电层主要是在正极极片表面,由于该无机层具有电化学稳定性,进而减少了正极活性物质颗粒与电解液的直接接触面积,降低电解液在正极极片表面的副反应,有效改善锂离子电池的存储产气问题。
上述无机介电层与正极活性物质层之间不是靠粘结剂固定,因此避免了因粘结剂分布不均、在电解液中浸泡失效、长期循环过程或者机械滥用情况下,无机介电层脱落引发的电性能变差以及安全问题。同时,上述无机介电层在正极活性物质层表面的活性颗粒表面紧密包覆,能够降低循环过程中正极活性材料颗粒破碎的概率,使得正极活性物质层整体的机械强度增加,不容易破碎。另外,上述无机介电层还可以在强氧化性的正极极片与隔离膜之间形成化学性质稳定的绝缘界面,避免隔离膜表层的聚合物与强氧化性的正极活性物质层接触氧化发生失效。
本申请中的正极活性物质层表面的无机介电层是一种无机介电材料,因此会增大正极极片的电阻。在电池体系中,正极极片的电阻占电池内阻的约80%,因此内阻过大,会影响其能量输出、电池寿命及安全性能。本申请中控制含有无机介电层的正极极片的电阻不高于8ohm,能够在提高电池体系稳定性以及安全性能的同时,控制电池体系的内阻不会过多地增加,使电池具有良好的动力学性能以及倍率性能。
正极极片的电阻R为采用直流两探针法且探针与正极极片的接触面积为49πmm
2时所测得的正极极片的电阻。作为一个示例,将正极极片的上下两侧夹持于极片电阻测试仪的两个导电端子之间,并施加压力以固定,测定正极极片的电阻R,其中导电端子的直径为14mm,施加压力为15MPa~27MPa。极片电阻测试仪例如为日置BT3562型内阻测试仪。
在本申请第一方面的正极极片中,所述无机介电层可以通过气相沉积法、电化学沉积形成。优选地,所述无机介电层通过气相沉积法形成。气相沉积法可为化学气相沉积、物理气相沉积或等离子体气相沉积。气相沉积法形成的无机介电层与正极活性物质层的结合力更强,可以避免电池长期循环过程中以及遭受机械滥用时无机介电层从正极活性物质层表面脱落的问题。
在本申请第一方面的正极极片中,优选地,在式(1)所示的正极活性物质中,0.50≤y≤0.95,0≤z≤0.2,0≤k≤0.2,0≤p≤0.05,且y+z+k+p=1。进一步优选地,所述正极活性材料的基体可选自LiNi

1≤T。从而满足纳米团簇的本身附着力、均一性并具有一定力学强度的要求,保证无机层具有良好的抗氧化、抗高电压效果的稳定性;同时还可以保证该无机层具有良好的通透性,电解液浸润性及离子透过率较高,电芯与极片的动力学性能良好。
在本申请第一方面的正极极片中,纳米团簇的平均粒径为5nm~200nm。纳米团簇平均粒径的下限可为5nm、10nm、15nm、20nm、25nm、30nm、35nm、40nm、45nm、50nm、55nm、60nm、65nm、70nm、75nm、80nm、85nm、90nm、95nm、100nm。纳米团簇平均粒径的上限可为110nm、120nm、130nm、140nm、150nm、160nm、170nm、180nm、190nm、200nm。纳米团簇的平均粒径可由上述上限或下限的任意数值组成。
在本申请第一方面的正极极片中,无机介电层的厚度T为50nm~1000nm。无机介电层厚度的上限可以为1000nm、990nm、950nm、900nm、850nm、800nm、750nm、720nm、700nm、680nm、650nm、600nm、550nm、500nm、490nm、450nm、430nm、400nm、380nm、350nm、300nm、280nm、250nm、200nm;无机介电层的厚度的下限可为50nm、55nm、60nm、65nm、70nm、75nm、80nm、85nm、90nm、95nm、100nm、110nm、120nm、130nm、140nm、150nm、160nm、170nm、180nm、190nm。无机介电层的厚度可由上述上限或下限的任意数值组成。如果无机介电层过薄,无法有效稳定正极极片与电解液、隔离膜的界面;如果无机介电层过厚,一方面会导致正极极片的电阻急剧增大,另一方面会在正极极片表面形成致密膜层,进而影响电池的循环性能和动力学性能,并且还会增加极片的厚度,降低电池能量密度。
优选地,无机介电层的厚度T为100nm~600nm,进一步优选地,无机介电层的厚度为200nm~500nm。在上述范围内,正极极片的强氧化性表面得到有效保护、隔离膜表面与电解液不易被氧化,而且对电池的厚度和质量增加较少,有利于提高电池的质量能量密度和体积能量密度。
在本申请第一方面的正极极片中,无机介电层以非连续、片层状的形态覆盖在正极活性物质层最外层的表面以及在正极活性物质层内部至少一部分孔隙的内壁上。本申请实施例中当采用气相法制备时,无机介电层不仅可以沉积在正极活性物质层的表面,还可以进一步沉积在正极极片表面一定深度的活性物质颗粒之间的孔隙内壁。经冷压处理后,极片表面的无机介电层变成非连续的片层形态。上述结构一方面可以利用无机材料的高介电常数和亲水性,在正极极片表面形成电化学稳定的保护层,提高极片对电解液的浸润速率;同时将无机介电层以非连续状分布,可以避免因无机介电层过于致密,导致极片表面的孔隙率过低、离子通道减少,导致局部电芯的循环性能和动力学性能变差。
优选地,无机介电层在正极活性物质层内部孔隙内壁覆盖的厚度,在正极活性物质层厚度方向由最外层向内部逐渐减小。本申请实施例中当采用气相法制备时,随着无机介电层厚度的增加,活性物质层内部颗粒间隙无机介电层沉积的厚度在正极活性物质层的厚度方向逐渐减小,极片内部的孔径较大、孔隙率较高,极片外层的孔径缩小、孔隙率降低,上述结构可以提高极片对电解液的浸润性和保液率,抑制电解液在正极极片和内部活性物质表面发生副反应的效果越明显,有效改善电芯的产气问题以及安全性能。
在本申请第一方面的正极极片中,无机介电层分布在正极活性物质层厚度方向上蔓延的深度为正极活性物质层厚度的1/1000~1/10。在具体的制备过程中,例如当采用气相沉积法时,无机介电层在正极活性物质层内部的蔓延深度随沉积厚度的提高逐渐加深。当无机介电层在正极活性物质层内部的蔓延深度在上述范围内时,可以保证活性物质层的表面及内部具有一定的孔隙,极片对电解液浸润性良好,离子导通性能优良。
在本申请第一方面的正极极片中,无机介电层可为Al的氧化物、AlO(OH)、Al的氮化物、Al的氟化物、Si的氧化物、Si的氮化物、Si的氟化物、Ti的氧化物、Ti的氮化物、Ti的氟化物、Zn的氧化物、Zn的氮化物、Zn的氟化物、Mg的氧化物、Mg的氮化物、Mg的氟化物、Zr的氧化物、Zr的氮化物、Zr的氟化物、Ca的氧化物、Ca的氮化物、Ca的氟化物、Ba的氧化物、Ba的氮化物、Ba的氟化物中的至少一种。
在本申请第一方面的正极极片中,所述正极极片的压实密度为 3.2g/cm
3~3.9g/cm
3,所述正极极片的孔隙率为2%~30%。本申请中正极极片的压实密度和孔隙率在上述范围内,可以保证形成在极片表面的无机介电层形成在极片表面以及内部一部分颗粒之间的孔隙内壁,并且厚度不会过厚而引起的极片孔隙被堵。当所述正极极片的压实密度过低(小于3.2g/cm
3)或者孔隙率过高(大于30%)时,由于极片表层及内部的孔隙过大过多,一方面会使得无机介电层进入极片内部过多,极片表面无法形成良好的化学钝化层,以抑制对电解液以及隔离膜的氧化分解。若极片的压实密度过高(大于3.9g/cm
3)或者孔隙率过低(小于2%),无机介电层几乎都分布在极片表面,对极片内部颗粒几乎无覆盖,容易造成表面孔隙被堵,降低离子导通性能。
在本申请第一方面的正极极片中,正极活性材料的基体的粒径D50可为5μm~25μm,优选地,正极活性材料的基体的粒径D50可为8μm~18μm。

0,然后将锂离子电池放入80℃的恒温箱存储360h,存储结束后取出,再次采用排水法测试锂离子电池的体积,并记为V
1。每组测试15支锂离子电池,取平均值。
锂离子电池80℃存储360h后的体积膨胀率(%)=(V
1-V
0)/V
0×100%。
(2)锂离子电池的45℃高温循环性能测试
在45℃下,将锂离子电池以1C恒流充电至4.2V,之后以4.2V恒压充电至电流为0.05C,然后以1C恒流放电至2.8V,此为一个充放电循环过程,此次的放电容量为首次循环的放电容量。将锂离子电池按照上述方法进行1000次循环充电/放电测试。每组测试15支锂离子电池,取平均值。

(3)锂离子电池的60℃高温存储性能测试
在25℃下,将锂离子电池以0.5C恒流充电至4.2V,之后以4.2V恒压充电至电流为0.05C,然后以1C恒流放电至2.8V,得到初始放电容量C
0;之后将锂离子电池以0.5C恒流充电至4.2V,之后以4.2V恒压充电至电流为0.05C,将满充后的锂离子电池放入60℃的恒温箱保温180天,取出后测试锂离子电池的可逆容量,记为C

表2实施例1-15和对比例1-3的测试结果
通过上述实验结果可知,本申请实施例1-15中,通过在正极活性物质层上设置不含有粘结剂的无机介电层、同时保证正极极片的电阻不超过8ohm,无机介电层具有良好的电化学稳定性,可以隔绝强氧化性的正极活性物质层与电解液的直接接触,同时无机介电层设置在宏观的正极极片表面,还可以降低正极极片外侧活性物质的表面粗糙度,有效减少强氧化性的正极活性材料与电解液的有效接触面积,因此可以抑制电解液在正极极片表面的副反应,降低因电解液分解而产生的气体量,进而很好地延长电池的存储和使用寿命。另一方面,无机介电层还可以在正极极片和隔离膜之间起到绝缘界面的作用,避免在高电压下隔离膜聚合物与强氧化性的正极极片接触发生氧化而失效。
在对比例1中,正极活性物质层表面未设置无机介电层,在高温循环和存储的过程中,由于正极极片表面具有强氧化性,电解液在极片表面的副反应较多,因此电池的体积膨胀率较高,内部阻抗增加明显,容量保持率下降明显。
在对比例2和3中,尽管在正极活性物质层表面设置了无机介电层或者包含粘结剂的无机颗粒涂层,正极极片的界面得到了稳定,但是由于正极极片电阻过高,导致电池体系的内阻增加过多,因此电池的动力学性能以及倍率性能恶化。
以上所述,仅是本申请的几个实施例,并非对本申请做任何形式的限制,虽然本申请以较佳实施例揭示如上,然而并非用以限制本申请,任何熟悉本专业的技术人员,在不脱离本申请技术方案的范围内,利用上述揭示的技术内容做出些许的变动或修饰均等同于等效实施案例,均属于技术方案范围内。
