When the high-rate charge and discharge is carried out, the electrochemical reaction is violently carried out, so that the nickel of the positive electrode of the battery is dissolved out, the electrolyte is subjected to oxidative decomposition on the surface of the positive electrode, the silicon-carbon negative electrode is rapidly expanded and pulverized, the capacity of the battery is exerted and the retention rate is rapidly attenuated, and even the lithium precipitation phenomenon is possibly generated in the charging process; meanwhile, the heat generation of the battery core is obviously increased, the thermal runaway risk of the battery is increased, and potential safety hazards exist.
Aiming at the problems of nickel dissolution, silicon cathode expansion, capacity attenuation and safety which possibly occur in the high-power charge and discharge, the prior solution mainly comprises two types: 1. the positive and negative pole pieces are optimized, and the contact area between the positive and negative poles and the electrolyte is increased by reducing the particle size of the material, changing the shape of the material and other schemes, so that the rapid intercalation and deintercalation of lithium ions are promoted. 2. The electrolyte formulation is optimized, and film forming additives with interface improving effect, such as FEC and the like, are added, so that the method is the most direct and convenient method. For example, patent CN110600803a discloses a silane additive which can effectively reduce the moisture content and acidity in the electrolyte and improve the cycle performance of the cell at high temperature and high pressure.

The technical scheme of the invention is further described through specific embodiments.
In the present invention, unless otherwise specified, the materials and equipment used are commercially available or are commonly used in the art, and the methods in the examples are conventional in the art unless otherwise specified.
Example 1
The preparation method of the lithium battery comprises the following steps:
(1) Preparing a negative plate: mixing silicon-carbon composite particles serving as a negative electrode active material, styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) serving as a binder, sodium carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) serving as a thickener, carbon black serving as a conductive agent and a carbon tube according to a mass ratio of 97:1:1, adding deionized water, stirring in a vacuum stirrer until the mixture is stable and uniform to obtain negative electrode slurry, coating the obtained negative electrode slurry on copper foil with the thickness of 8 mu m after the detected viscosity is qualified, drying the copper foil coated with the slurry in a baking oven at the temperature of 100 ℃, and rolling and punching to obtain a negative electrode plate.
(2) Preparation of a positive plate: the positive electrode active material nickel cobalt lithium manganate (LiNi 0.8 Mn 0.1 Co 0.1 ) Mixing polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) binder, carbon black as a conductive agent and a carbon tube according to a mass ratio of 97:1:1, adding N-methyl pyrrolidone, stirring in a vacuum stirrer until the mixture is stable and uniform to obtain positive electrode slurry, coating the obtained positive electrode slurry on aluminum foil with the thickness of 12 mu m after the detected viscosity is qualified, drying the aluminum foil coated with the slurry in a baking oven at the temperature of 100 ℃, and rolling and punching to obtain the positive electrode plate.
(3) Preparation of nonaqueous electrolyte: mixing anhydrous solvent ethylene carbonate, methyl ethyl carbonate and diethyl carbonate according to a mass ratio of 1:1:1, adding 12.5% of lithium hexafluorophosphate by mass fraction, uniformly mixing, and then adding an additive, wherein the additive is compound 1 with a mass ratio of 0.5% and lithium difluorosulfimide salt with a mass ratio of 3%.
(4) And (3) assembling a battery cell: and laminating the prepared positive and negative plates and the diaphragm according to the designed capacity, packaging by using an aluminum plastic film to obtain a dry battery cell, and drying in vacuum at 85 ℃.
(5) And (3) liquid injection pre-filling and formation: and (3) injecting the prepared electrolyte into the dry battery cell according to a designed electrolyte injection coefficient in a glove box, sealing, standing at normal temperature, forming, exhausting and sealing secondarily to obtain the activated lithium ion battery.
Performance test method of lithium battery
(1) High temperature cycle test: the battery was charged to 4.25V at a constant current and constant voltage of 1C at 45C, and the off current was 0.05C. Then, the initial discharge capacity D1 was recorded by constant-current discharge at 1C to 2.8V. The test was stopped by cycling until the discharge capacity was less than 80% of the initial capacity.
(2) High temperature storage test: the battery was charged to 4.25V at a constant current and constant voltage of 0.3C, the off-current was 0.05C, and then discharged to 2.8V at a constant current of 0.3C, and the initial discharge capacity D1 was recorded, and was charged again. After the battery was stored at 60 ℃ for N days, the battery was taken out and cooled to room temperature, discharged to 2.8V at a constant current of 0.3C, the discharge capacity Dn was recorded, the battery was fully charged, the charge capacity was recorded as Cn, the capacity retention=dn/D1, and the capacity recovery=cn/D1.
Examples 2-11 and comparative examples 1-5 differ from example 1 only in the electrolyte additives, see table in detail.
Example 12
The difference from example 1 is in the preparation of the nonaqueous electrolyte in step (3): mixing anhydrous solvent ethylene carbonate, methyl ethyl carbonate and ethyl butyrate according to the mass ratio of 1:1:1, adding 12.5% of lithium hexafluorophosphate by mass fraction, uniformly mixing, and then adding an additive, wherein the additive is compound 1 with the mass ratio of 5% and lithium difluorosulfimide salt with the mass ratio of 0.2%.
As can be seen from the above table, the high temperature cycle performance and the high temperature storage performance of the lithium battery of each example of the present invention are improved greatly as compared with the comparative examples. Wherein the c=o bond of the carbonyl group in the silane additives used in examples 5 and 6 is adjacent to a carbon-carbon triple bond or a carbon-carbon double bond, resulting in a conjugation effect with optimal performance. Compared with example 5: comparative examples 3 and 4 only used one of the silane additive or the fluorine-containing lithium salt additive, and the performance was far inferior to that of example 5, indicating that the two additives could be matched with each other to significantly improve the performance; comparative example 5 the silane additive of the present invention was replaced with the common commercially available additive 1, 3-propane sultone, and comparative example 2 replaced the silane additive of the present invention with (trimethylsilyl) acetylene of the prior art, both of which perform less well than example 5, demonstrating the structure of the silane additive of the present invention in which the carbonyl and siloxane groups share 1 oxygen atom.
Specifically, it is found from the data of comparative example 1 that the addition of compound 3 and lithium bis (fluorosulfonyl) imide to the electrolyte has the best effect of improving the high-temperature cycle performance and storage performance of the lithium ion battery. Because the silane additive and the fluorine-containing lithium salt additive form a layer of passivation film on the surface of the negative electrode under the synergistic effect, the solvolysis is effectively inhibited, the volume expansion of the silicon-carbon negative electrode is relieved, the battery impedance is further effectively improved, and the risk of the power performance degradation of the battery is effectively reduced, especially in the battery using high voltage and high nickel/silicon-carbon lithium ions. As can be seen from the data of comparative examples 2 and 3, the silane additives with silicon-oxygen bonds and carbonyl functionality provide certain advantages in the high temperature cycling performance and storage performance of lithium ion batteries over silane additives containing only alkynyl groups.
The present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, but is capable of modification and variation in all aspects, including all obvious modifications and equivalents, which can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of the present invention.
