The technical scheme of the invention is further described below with reference to the specific embodiments.
The preparation method of the safe lithium battery electrolyte containing the microcapsule comprises the following steps:
s1) adding formaldehyde into urea, stirring until urea particles are completely dissolved, adjusting the pH value of a system, adding melamine, and reacting for 1h at 60-70 ℃ under the stirring condition of 400rpm to prepare a water-soluble urea-formaldehyde resin prepolymer;
s2) adding the water-soluble urea-formaldehyde resin prepolymer into a sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate aqueous solution, diluting and stirring, then adding a perfluorinated hexanone liquid, stirring and emulsifying for 30min, then stirring at 45-55 ℃ and dropwise adding a sulfuric acid solution with the concentration of 1%, acidifying and adjusting the pH value of a system, heating to 55-65 ℃, adding a small amount of distilled water, solidifying for 2h, washing, standing, and removing supernatant to obtain microcapsules containing wrapping films;
s3) supplementing the water-soluble urea resin prepolymer to the microcapsule containing the wrapping film, repeating the steps for 2-3 times according to the step S2) to obtain a microcapsule containing a multi-layer wrapping film, washing the microcapsule containing the multi-layer wrapping film with acetone, filtering, and drying to obtain a microcapsule body;
s4) LiPF commercially available 6 Concentration is 1mol/l, volume concentration ratio of EC and DMC is l: liPF of l 6 Adding the microcapsule into EC+DMC commercial electrolyte, and supplementing LiPF 6 The safe lithium battery electrolyte containing the microcapsule is prepared by keeping the concentration of lithium ions in the electrolyte at a constant value of 1 mol/l.
The preparation method of the safe lithium battery electrolyte containing the microcapsule body adopts an in-situ polymerization method, takes low-melting-point liquid perfluorinated hexanone as a capsule core material, takes melamine modified urea formaldehyde resin as a capsule wall material and sulfuric acid as a catalyst, prepares perfluorinated hexanone/MUF microcapsules, and forms the microcapsule body through multiple wrapping; the microcapsule is coated with heat absorbing phase change material (fluorine derivative, such as perfluoro-hexanone or heptafluorocyclopentane), and in the initial stage of thermal runaway of lithium battery, the electrolyte is decomposed when the temperature rises above 150 ℃ due to the decomposition of SEI solid electrolyte interface film, and then the diaphragm in the electrolyte is melted. Therefore, when the lithium battery using the microcapsule-containing safe lithium battery electrolyte is in thermal runaway, the microcapsule contained therein can crack and release the heat absorbing material, has a good active cooling protection function, can effectively inhibit potential safety hazards in the lithium battery, prevents open fire or explosion during the thermal runaway of the lithium battery, and provides a new solution for safe application of the lithium battery and replacement of the electrolyte.
Preferably, in step S1), the mixing mass ratio of urea and formaldehyde is 1:2, and the mass ratio of melamine added to urea is 0.05:1.
Urea, melamine and formaldehyde are polymerized to form urea formaldehyde resin, and the melamine contained in the modified urea formaldehyde resin can effectively reduce the content of free formaldehyde, so that the electrolyte has better use safety.
Preferably, in step S1), the solvent used for adjusting the pH is triethanolamine, and the pH of the solution is 7-8.
In alkaline environment, the polymerization efficiency of urea, melamine and formaldehyde is higher.
Preferably, in step S2), the stirring speed is 600r/min and the pH value is 2-3.
The microcapsule coating is required to be completed in an acidic environment, the pH value is proper to be 2-3, the pH value is too high or too low, and the coating layer of the microcapsule cannot be formed.
Stirring at a medium speed of 600r/min in an acidic environment, and adding sulfuric acid for catalysis can improve the efficiency of film formation of the prepolymer and coating of the perfluorinated hexanone.
Preferably, in the step S2), the mass concentration of the perfluoro-hexanone in the aqueous solution is 0.8-1g/ml, the mass concentration of the sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate is 0.4-0.5wt%, and the mass concentration of the water-soluble urea resin prepolymer is 2-2.5g/ml.
The sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate is used as a surfactant, so that the perfluoro-hexanone in the aqueous solution can be dispersed more uniformly, the concentration of the perfluoro-hexanone wrapped by each microcapsule formed by the urea-formaldehyde resin film is close, and further, the relatively consistent temperature resistance is formed, and the perfluoro-hexanone released after the microcapsule is broken has the same cooling effect.
Preferably, in the step S3), the mass concentration of the additionally added water-soluble urea resin prepolymer is 1-1.5g/ml.
During the repeated wrapping and film forming of step S3), the water-soluble urea-formaldehyde resin prepolymer is replenished about half the total amount of the water-soluble urea-formaldehyde resin prepolymer added for the first time so as to maintain a higher concentration of the urea-formaldehyde resin prepolymer contained.
In the repeated wrapping and film forming processes, a second film layer and a third film layer are formed, and the heat absorbing phase change material perfluorinated hexanone is wrapped between the second film layer and the third film layer, so that the cooling performance of the microcapsule is further improved.
Preferably, in step S3), the drying temperature is 60℃and the drying time is 12 hours.
The microcapsule body is cleaned by acetone, so that the microcapsule body obtained by drying does not contain acidic substances or other impurities, and the microcapsule body is prevented from generating chemical reaction with other substances in electrolyte to damage the performance of the lithium battery when the microcapsule body is used for the lithium battery.
Drying at 60deg.C for 12 hr can completely remove water on the surface of microcapsule, such as microcapsule deformation caused by temperature higher than 65deg.C, and incomplete removal due to low drying efficiency.
Preferably, in step S4), the mass of the microcapsule added is LiPF 6 15-40% of the mass of the EC+DMC commercial electrolyte.
When the content of the added microcapsule is less than 15wt%, the total amount of the heat absorbing material perfluoro-hexanone released by the microcapsule is less, and the cooling effect is insufficient, so that the thermal runaway temperature of the lithium battery still continues to rise; when the amount of the microcapsule exceeds 40wt%, the fluidity and workability of the electrolyte are affected by an excessively high proportion of the microcapsule.
Furthermore, the invention also provides a lithium battery using the safe lithium battery electrolyte prepared by the preparation method of the safe lithium battery electrolyte containing the microcapsule, which comprises a Ni0.5Co0.2Mn0.3 positive electrode and an artificial graphite negative electrode, wherein the electrolyte is the safe lithium battery electrolyte containing the microcapsule, the Ni0.5Co0.2Mn0.3 positive electrode and the artificial graphite negative electrode are separated by a polypropylene-polyethylene composite diaphragm, the rupture temperature of a film layer of the microcapsule is 120+/-5 ℃, and the particle size of the microcapsule is 5-10 mu m.
Lithium battery using the above-described safe lithium battery electrolyte containing microcapsules, liPF 6 When the temperature of the electrolyte rises to 120+/-5 ℃, the urea-melamine-formaldehyde polymerization film layer in the microcapsule body breaks, the heat absorbing material perfluoro hexanone wrapped by the polymerization film layer is released into the electrolyte, and the temperature of the electrolyte is rapidly reduced, so that the lithium battery of the safety lithium battery electrolyte containing the microcapsule body is prevented from firing or even exploding due to overheating.
