Meanwhile, the solvation of lithium ions is improved, so that the conductivity of lithium ions is improved, and the transmission rate of the lithium ions is higher, so that the direct current impedance (DCR) of the battery cell is reduced. Therefore, the low-temperature lithium precipitation of the battery can be effectively inhibited. In the process of charging and discharging of the battery, the positive electrode and the negative electrode can generate volume change (expansion or contraction) due to lithium intercalation and lithium separation, the phenomenon is particularly obvious (the speed is higher) under large current, the cyclic ethylene carbonate can form an SEI film which takes polymers as main materials on the surfaces of the positive electrode and the negative electrode, the SEI film has good mechanical toughness, is not easy to break and break due to volume change, can continuously protect the positive electrode and the negative electrode in the cycle process, and therefore the cycle performance of the battery under large current can be effectively improved.
The internal impedance of the battery consists of electrolyte impedance and SEI film impedance: r ═ Rs + RCT, where Rs is the electrolyte resistance and RCT is the SEI film resistance.
However, since the cyclic ethylene carbonate and the lithium additive both participate in film formation at the positive electrode and the negative electrode, the battery using the additives has high direct current impedance, and the battery performance is easily influenced by high polarization in the process of large current circulation of the battery; the addition of the fluoro-silane can effectively improve the conductivity of the lithium ion and improve the transmission capability of the lithium ion in the electrolyte, thereby improving the rate capability of the battery; in addition, the resistance of the battery can be reduced by reducing Rs, so that the low-temperature lithium precipitation of the battery can be improved.

More specifically, the cyclic ethylene carbonate is selected from one or more of vinylene carbonate, ethylene carbonate and fluoroethylene carbonate. The cyclic ethylene carbonate additive can effectively improve the cycle performance of the battery cell.
The lithium tetrafluoroborate and the lithium difluorooxalate phosphate can effectively inhibit side reactions between the charged anode and cathode and the electrolyte, thereby prolonging the cycle life of the battery. In addition, lithium tetrafluoroborate and lithium difluorooxalate phosphate can reduce the increase of battery interfacial Resistance (RCT) in the cycling process and control the increase of cycling DCR.
Further, the mass percentage of the lithium tetrafluoroborate in the electrolyte is 0.1-4%. Furthermore, the mass percentage of the lithium tetrafluoroborate in the electrolyte is 0.2-2%.
Further, the mass percentage of the lithium difluorooxalate phosphate in the electrolyte is 0.1-4.0%. Furthermore, the mass percentage of the lithium difluorooxalate phosphate in the electrolyte is 0.2-2.0%.

In one embodiment, the total weight of the additive is 5-10% of the total weight of the electrolyte.
The electrolyte at least has the following advantages:
1) the additive of the electrolyte comprises fluoro silane, cyclic ethylene carbonate and lithium additive. The addition of the cyclic vinyl carbonate additive and the lithium additive into the electrolyte can form a stable composite solid electrolyte interface film (SEI film) with excellent ion permeability on the surfaces of a positive electrode and a negative electrode, and the SEI film can effectively inhibit the increase of direct current impedance (DCR) in the circulation process, so that the battery cell can keep good power performance; meanwhile, the solvation of lithium ions is improved, so that the conductivity of lithium ions is improved, and the transmission rate of the lithium ions is higher, thereby reducing the direct-current impedance of the battery cell. The cyclic ethylene carbonate can form an SEI film which takes polymers as main materials on the surfaces of the positive electrode and the negative electrode, the SEI film has good mechanical toughness, is not easy to break and crush due to volume change, and can continuously protect the positive electrode and the negative electrode in the circulating process, so that the circulating performance of the battery under large current can be effectively improved.
2) Because the cyclic ethylene carbonate and the lithium additive both participate in film formation at the positive electrode and the negative electrode, the battery using the cyclic ethylene carbonate and the lithium additive only has higher direct current impedance, and the battery performance is easily influenced by high polarization in the process of large-current circulation of the battery; the addition of the fluoro-silane can effectively improve the conductivity of the lithium ion and improve the transmission capability of the lithium ion in the electrolyte, thereby improving the rate capability of the battery.
3) The mass percentage of the fluoro-silane in the electrolyte is 0.1-4%, the mass percentage of the cyclic ethylene carbonate in the electrolyte is 0.1-4%, and the mass percentage of the lithium additive in the electrolyte is 0.1-4%. The addition amount of the additive is within the range, so that the battery performance is obviously improved, and the battery has better cycle performance; the improvement effect by continuously increasing the amount of the above additives is not significant, and the cell manufacturing cost is increased, and adverse effects such as increase in impedance/deterioration in cycle performance may be caused.

2. Preparing a lithium ion battery:

The electrolytes and lithium ion batteries of examples 1 to 21 and comparative examples 1 to 12 were prepared according to the above preparation methods; the additives in the electrolyte and the respective amounts added are shown in table 1.
The lithium ion batteries of the comparative examples and examples of the present application were tested for performance by experiment as follows.
Test one, DC impedance DCR test
The lithium ion batteries obtained by the preparation were subjected to the following tests, respectively:
the test was completed by charging the example and comparative batteries to 4.2V with CC-CV at 25 deg.c, with a cutoff current of 0.05C, discharging for 30min at 1C capacity, adjusting to 50% SOC, then leaving at 25 for 2h, performing a pulse program, discharging at 5C for 10s at constant current, and leaving for 10 min.
DCR ═ (pre-pulse discharge voltage-post-pulse discharge voltage)/discharge current 100%;
the results are reported in Table 2.
Test two, cycle experiment

under the condition of 25, carrying out charge-discharge cycle test with the charge-discharge rate of 3C/3C within the voltage range of 2.8-4.2V, respectively recording the first charge-discharge capacity of the battery and the discharge capacity after each cycle, cycling 1000 times, and calculating the capacity retention rate of each lithium battery, wherein the capacity retention rate is the discharge capacity per cycle/the first discharge capacity of the battery and is 100%.

The electrolyte selected for each lithium ion battery, and the data of capacity retention rate and cyclic DCR increase rate after 1000 cycles are shown in Table 2.
TABLE 2
Figure BDA0002603795520000131
Figure BDA0002603795520000141
The following conclusions can be drawn in conjunction with the data in tables 1-2:
1) comparative examples 1 to 12, which use only a part of the additive or a part of the solvent, have some disadvantages in the battery performance. The absence of a part of key additives makes the battery insufficient to form a composite solid electrolyte interface film (SEI film) stable at high potential, affecting the cycle performance of the battery; in addition, the impedance of part of the battery is large, and lithium ion transmission is suppressed.
2) Comparing examples 1-6 with comparative example 6, the results show that additive A has good synergistic effect with other additives. The additive A is added into the electrolyte, so that the low-temperature lithium ion conductivity can be effectively improved, and the transmission capability of lithium ions in the electrolyte (namely Rs is reduced), thereby reducing the battery impedance and improving the battery rate performance. Comparing example 3 with example 2, it is shown that the use of a large amount of additive A has no obvious effect on further improving the impedance of the battery, and greatly increases the cost of the electrolyte, so that the additive A needs to be used in a proper amount.
3) The results of comparing examples 1-6 with comparative example 7 all show that the comparative additive 1-fluorosilane (A5) has significantly less effect on improving the cell DCR and the cycle performance than the additives A1-A4. The reason for this is that the Si — H bond in 1-fluorosilane has extremely strong reducibility, making the substance less stable in the electrolyte and susceptible to unwanted chemical reactions with the respective electrolyte components. In contrast, the Si-CH3 bond in the structure of the additive A1-A4 is relatively stable, which is beneficial for the additive to have electrochemical reaction with specific components under specific potential and exert excellent film-forming efficacy.
4) Comparing examples 7 to 10 with comparative example 8, the results show that additive B has a good synergistic effect with other additives. The additive B is added into the electrolyte, so that a polymer SEI film with excellent mechanical properties can be formed together with other additives, and the battery can be effectively protected in the circulating process. The combination of the additive B can effectively improve the normal-temperature cycle performance of the battery. Comparing example 9 with example 8, it was shown that excessive use of additive B resulted in excessive cell resistance (DCR), and therefore additive B was used in a proper amount.
5) Comparing examples 11 to 13 with comparative example 9, the results show that the organic solvent FB has a good synergistic effect with other additives. The FB can reduce the viscosity of the electrolyte and the surface tension of the solution, thereby obviously improving the wettability of the electrolyte and reducing the direct current impedance. Comparing example 13 with example 12, it is shown that the use of a large amount of FB has no significant effect on further reducing the impedance of the battery and greatly increases the cost of the electrolyte, so that FB needs to be used in a proper amount.
6) Comparing examples 14-16 with comparative example 10, and examples 17-19 with comparative example 11, the results show that the additives lithium tetrafluoroborate and lithium difluorooxalate phosphate have good synergistic effects with other additives. Additives such as lithium tetrafluoroborate, lithium difluorooxalate phosphate and the like can effectively inhibit side reactions between the charged anode and cathode and the electrolyte, thereby prolonging the cycle life of the battery. In addition, additives such as lithium tetrafluoroborate and lithium difluorooxalate phosphate can reduce the increase of battery interfacial Resistance (RCT) in the circulating process and control the increase of circulating DCR. However, since cyclic ethylene carbonate, lithium tetrafluoroborate and lithium difluorooxalato phosphate all participate in film formation at the positive and negative electrodes, excessive use of the cyclic ethylene carbonate, lithium tetrafluoroborate and lithium difluorooxalato phosphate all causes excessive initial DCR of the cell (comparative example 15/16, example 18/19).
The example with the synergistic effect of the four additives has a clear advantage in three properties of cyclic performance, dc resistance and cyclic DCR increase compared to the comparative example.
In conclusion, the performance of the lithium ion battery using the electrolyte is obviously improved, and the lithium ion battery can be stored and used more safely at high multiplying power and low temperature.
