三、各实施例、对比例测试结果
按照上述方法分别制备各实施例和对比例的电池,并测量各项性能参数,结果见下 表1。
表1 各实施例和对比例的电池组成和循环性能
Figure PCTCN2022085791-appb-000001
锂离子电池正极活性材料中掺入钠离子和钾离子,电芯循环性能提升,且随掺杂量增加,电池的循环性能先增加后降低,钠掺杂量在0.025最优。钠离子和钾离子掺杂提高了正极活性材料结构稳定性从而提升电池的循环性能。
实施例1、8、9和对比例1对比可知,包含钠离子的正极活性材料,配合添加钠盐的电解液,可显著提升二次电池的循环性能。电解液中添加钠盐后,正极活性材料中的钠离子可通过电解液嵌入到石墨层中,起到支撑作用,降低锂离子嵌入/脱出而引起膨胀/收缩,从而降低SEI破环,减少活性锂损失,提高电池的循环性能。
实施例8、12和对比例1对比可知,不同电解质盐均可大幅提升电池循环性能。
综上,半径较大的离子掺入正极活性材料中,搭配含该离子盐的电解液,有利于大 幅提升电池的循环性能。一方面半径较大的离子掺起到稳定阴极层状结构作用,降低材质损失。另一方面,半径较大的离子通过含该离子盐的电解液嵌入石墨材料中,支撑石墨层状结构,减少活性锂损失,提高电池的循环性能。
