Description

Safe low-concentration electrolyte for lithium battery and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of secondary batteries, in particular to a safe low-concentration electrolyte for a lithium battery and application thereof.
Background
Metallic lithium has the highest theoretical specific capacity (3860mAh/g) and the lowest redox potential (-3.04V vs. standard hydrogen electrode), so a lithium metal battery using metallic lithium directly as a negative electrode is considered as a next-generation high energy density battery. However, large scale application of lithium metal batteries presents serious challenges, on the one hand, non-uniform deposition and unstable interface of the lithium negative electrode during cycling can lead to rapid decay of the negative electrode capacity and potential safety issues, and on the other hand, destruction of the positive electrode structure can lead to loss of active material and failure of the battery.
The electrolyte is contacted with the positive electrode and the negative electrode simultaneously, is regarded as the blood of the battery, and can obviously improve the cycle life and the safety of the lithium metal battery. In order to realize a high-performance and high-safety lithium metal battery, researchers developed a series of novel electrolytes, and as found by zhangguang et al in the laboratories of north western countries of pacific usa, the high-concentration electrolytes can significantly improve the performance of the lithium metal battery and can improve the safety of the battery (nat. commun.2015, 6, 6362). However, the high concentration of the electrolyte increases the cost and viscosity of the electrolyte, and decreases wettability and conductivity. From the viewpoint of cost, researchers developed a new type of low concentration electrolyte (adv. energy mater.2020, 10,2001440). However, low concentration electrolytes contain a large number of free solvent molecules, are extremely flammable, and can pose a serious safety hazard when used.
Therefore, in order to realize the practical application of the lithium metal battery, it is increasingly important to develop a low-concentration electrolyte with low cost, high performance and high safety.
Through retrieval, the Chinese patent application number: 2019111920541, the name of invention creation is: a diluted lithium mixed lithium salt electrolyte for a lithium-sulfur battery comprises a mixed lithium salt, a solvent for dissolving the mixed lithium salt and a diluent, wherein the solvent for dissolving the mixed lithium salt is preferably an ester or ether solvent, and the diluent is preferably a fluoroether compound or an aromatic compound. The electrolyte can be used for a high-performance lithium-sulfur battery, and simultaneously plays a role in stabilizing a lithium negative electrode and promoting the performance of the capacity of a sulfur positive electrode. The electrolyte achieves the double effects of both lithium negative electrode protection and sulfur positive electrode capacity exertion by adding different lithium salts and mixing according to a certain proportion, and the electrolyte has high conductivity, low viscosity and good wettability due to the addition of the diluent, so that the cost of the electrolyte is greatly reduced, but the application does not relate to the inherent defects of the low-concentration electrolyte.
