Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of lithium batteries, in particular to an ether group-containing dicarbonate compound for a nonaqueous electrolyte, a nonaqueous electrolyte containing the ether group-containing dicarbonate compound and a secondary battery.
Background
Lithium ion secondary batteries have been successfully commercialized as an important invention in the energy field at the end of the 20 th century, and are widely applied to the fields of batteries for consumer products such as notebook computers, mobile phones and wearable devices, power batteries for buses, household automobiles, production vehicles and the like, and large-scale energy storage devices. As such, the nobel prize in 2019 awarded the father John b.goodenough, m.stanley Whittingham and Akira Yoshino of three-position lithium batteries to show their outstanding contributions. And the rapid development is achieved in the last 30 years, and the energy density is higher and higher, the service life is longer and longer, the safety is higher and higher. Of course, all lithium battery workers are always struggling and pursuing to further improve battery performance.
In general, optimizing cell design of lithium ion batteries and applying high performance battery materials are two common approaches. The design of the battery core mainly refers to the structure, the size, the coating thickness of the pole piece, the rolling thickness and the like of the battery. The battery material mainly refers to 4 main materials of a positive electrode, a diaphragm, a negative electrode and electrolyte. The positive electrode is used as a lithium source, and generally affects the upper limit voltage, the charge-discharge plateau, the gram-volume, the safety and the like of a battery cell. The negative electrode, which is a temporary receiving container for lithium ions, generally affects the lower limit voltage, energy density, safety, and the like of the cell. The diaphragm is used as a material for isolating the positive electrode and the negative electrode, so that the safety of the battery cell is influenced to a greater extent. The electrolyte as a transmitter of lithium ions has important influences on the safety performance, the rate capability, the low-temperature discharge performance, the high-temperature storage performance, the cycle life and the like of the battery cell. Meanwhile, the production of the electrolytes with different formulas has little difference on the process requirements, and the same equipment and even operation conditions can be adopted; when the method is applied to the production of the battery cell, the original formula can be easily replaced without obviously adjusting equipment and process. Therefore, compared with other 3 major materials, the method is most easily realized in industrial production. As such, the industry often desires to improve the overall cell performance through electrolyte improvement.
The organic nonaqueous electrolyte mainly comprises lithium salt (lithium hexafluorophosphate is mainly used at present), organic solvent and functional additive (film forming additive, flame retardant additive, overcharge prevention additive and the like). At present, most lithium battery workers put the development effort of the electrolyte into the additives. But in fact, the organic solvent is not only used in a large amount, but also has a large influence on the performance of the battery cell. The organic solvents used at present are mainly linear carbonates, carboxylic esters and cyclic carbonates. Although repeatedly tried, sulfones, phosphonates, ethers, alkanes and the like cannot be commercially used as a solvent. For example, japanese patents JP1998228928A and JP1999233141A disclose methods of improving incombustibility of an electrolyte by adding 5 to 100% of a phosphonate and/or phosphinate, respectively, but in fact, use in large amounts may deteriorate electrical properties.
On the other hand, linear carbonates mainly include dimethyl carbonate (DMC), Ethyl Methyl Carbonate (EMC), diethyl carbonate (DEC) and the like, cyclic carbonates mainly include Ethylene Carbonate (EC), Propylene Carbonate (PC) and the like, linear carboxylates mainly include methyl formate, ethyl acetate, methyl butyrate, ethyl propionate, methyl propionate and the like, and cyclic carboxylates mainly include γ -butyrolactone and the like. Although these solvents can now meet the basic performance requirements of the cell at the present time, they also have major drawbacks. For example, the EC has a high dielectric constant, can sufficiently dissolve or ionize a lithium salt, and is advantageous for improving the conductivity of an electrolyte, but has a high viscosity and a high melting point (m.p.36.4 ℃), and needs to be used in combination with a linear carbonate having a low viscosity and a low melting point. The low-temperature performance of the electrolyte can be obviously improved due to the low freezing point and low viscosity of the linear carboxylic ester, but the linear carboxylic ester has a lower boiling point and has poor high-temperature performance. Further, as shown in the Chinese patent (CN 101471459A), when the content of the tertiary carboxylic ester is more than 20% (volume), the self-discharge of the battery is serious, and the self-discharge phenomenon can be inhibited by adding an alkylbenzene compound and a halogenated benzene compound; however, when the content of the tertiary carboxylic ester exceeds 80% by volume, the self-discharge phenomenon cannot be suppressed even if the alkylbenzene compound or the halogenated benzene compound is contained.
Therefore, in order to meet the functional requirements of the electrolyte and simultaneously reduce the deterioration of other properties of the battery core, the development of a novel nonaqueous organic lithium ion secondary battery electrolyte solvent and the application of the novel nonaqueous organic lithium ion secondary battery electrolyte solvent to the lithium ion secondary battery are urgent and important.
Disclosure of Invention
In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention provides an ether group-containing dicarbonate compound for a nonaqueous electrolytic solution, a nonaqueous electrolytic solution containing the same, and a secondary battery. The dicarbonate compound of the present invention can increase the dielectric constant and Li+Binding capacity, thus improving the solubility and conductivity of lithium salt, and also having the function of driving Li+The ability to move. Meanwhile, the compound has lower viscosity, and can reduce intermolecular acting force.
The specific technical scheme of the invention is as follows:
in a first aspect, the present invention provides an ether group-containing dicarbonate compound for a nonaqueous electrolytic solution, having the following structural formula:
wherein x, n and m are independently selected from 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5.
Structurally, the ether group-containing dicarbonate compound has the characteristics that: two carbonate groups are contained in one molecule; ether groups are built up via alternating "-carbon-oxygen-carbon" bonds, which can serve both as a linking group between two carbonate groups and as an end group outside the carbonate groups.
Functionally, the ether group-containing dicarbonate compound is characterized in that: the structure of the whole linear molecule can reduce or even eliminate the defects that the viscosity of the cyclic carbonate is higher and the cyclic carbonate is easier to decompose on the surface of an electrode; the dicarbonate and ether groups contain a plurality of "C-O" and "C ═ O" bonds, and "O" has excess lone pair electrons and Li lacking electrons+Forming strong binding force and obviously increasing dielectric constant, thereby improving the dissolving capacity and conductivity of lithium salt and increasing Li+Mass transfer capacity; ③ two have strong electron-pulling capabilityThe introduction of the 'C ═ O' can make up the defect of insufficient electrochemical stability of ether compounds; ether-substituted alkyl or alkylene can improve the compatibility of the molecule with metal lithium electrodes and lithium-sulfur battery electrodes; the ether group substituted alkyl or alkylene can reduce the viscosity of the molecule and increase Li+Migration ability and battery low temperature performance; replacement of alkyl or alkylene groups with ether groups reduces the negative effect of the introduction of dicarbonates on the melting point of the molecule, maintaining a suitable value.
Further, in the ether group-containing dicarbonate compound, x is preferably 1 or 2, and n and m are preferably 2 to 4.
x, n and m in the above range can satisfy high dielectric constant and dissolving power required by design, and strong Li+Mass transfer capability and high electrode compatibility, and moderate molecular size, viscosity and melting point can be maintained. Conversely, if x ═ n ═ m ═ 5, then the molecular viscosity can increase rapidly, which is detrimental to the performance of the electrolyte.
In a second aspect, the invention provides a nonaqueous electrolyte for a lithium battery, which comprises the ether group-containing dicarbonate compound; the non-aqueous electrolyte also comprises a functional additive, a lithium salt and other organic solvents.

Data analysis
By comparing example 1 and comparative example 1, it can be found that when comparative example 1 replaces compound a with EMC, the conductivity is decreased, resulting in the rate capability and the normal temperature cycle capability (fig. 1) of comparative example 1 being inferior to example 1.
By comparing example 3 with comparative example 2, it can be seen that since there is an ether linkage composed of "C-O-C" in compound B compared to the comparative compound X without ether linkage, the conductivity of example 3 is significantly higher than that of comparative example 2 and the overall cell performance is better than that of comparative example 2, indicating the importance of the ether group in the ether group-containing dicarbonate compound.
Example 5 can find that compound D has a relatively high viscosity, but also has a strong lithium ion dissolving and complexing ability, so that a stable electrolyte can be formed and has a certain conductivity, while further increasing the content of compound D in comparative example 3 causes a decrease in conductivity, indicating that the content cannot be excessively high when an ether group-containing dicarbonate compound is used in the electrolyte. In addition, comparative examples 4 and 5, which cannot form a stable electrolyte using only EC (melting point 34 to 37 ℃ C., solid at ordinary temperature) or EMC (low dielectric constant, poor solvency) alone, also demonstrated the superior characteristics of the ether-group-containing dicarbonate compound compared to the cyclic carbonate or linear carbonate alone.
From comparison of example 6 with comparative example 6, it can be seen that the ether group-containing biscarbonate compound F, as well as in the lithium cobaltate/lithium metal coin cell, makes both the electrolyte conductivity and the cell performance of example 6 higher than comparative example 6 using a comparative compound Y containing only one carbonate group because it contains two carbonates. Illustrating the ability of the present invention to enhance the conductivity of ether group-containing bis-carbonate compounds and improve the performance of batteries by introducing two carbonate groups compared to carbonate compounds.
Similarly, it can be seen from a comparison of example 7 and comparative example 7 that comparative compound Z in comparative example 7 does not contain any carbonate group, resulting in a decrease in the conductivity of the electrolyte and deterioration in the battery performance. It is noted that comparative example 7 still had a certain conductivity because the electrolyte contained more EC, and the viscosity of the ether-based comparative compound Z was lower. This also laterally confirms the significance of introducing multiple ether groups into the ether-containing biscarbonate compound.
