The invention provides a non-
aqueous electrolyte of a
lithium ion battery and the
lithium ion battery containing the non-
aqueous electrolyte. The
lithium ion battery non-
aqueous electrolyte comprisesa lithium salt, a non-aqueous
organic solvent and an additive. The additive comprises a compound having a
structural formula represented by a formula I, R1 is C or N, R2 is a
hydrogen or alkali metalelement, and R3 and R4 are
alkali metal elements. The additive can optimize a positive
electrode /
electrolyte interface under a 4.4 V high-
voltage system. A stable CEI film is formed on the surface ofa positive
electrode to effectively prevent
dissolution of
transition metal, and the additive is further complexed with F<->, so that HF can be effectively removed,
oxygen free radicals generated fromthe positive
electrode material are absorbed, the stability of the positive
electrode material is improved, and the charge-
discharge reversibility in a cycle is improved. Meanwhile, the substituted
alkali metal element can prevent active
hydrogen connected to the
nitrogen-containing heterocyclic
nitrogen from reacting with a large amount of lithium ions in the
electrolyte to consume the lithium ions. Therefore, by adopting the additive, the first coulombic efficiency, the cycle performance and the high-temperature performance of the
lithium ion battery can be improved.
