Problems solved by technology

Studies have shown that the exchange current density of metal lithium in non-aqueous electrolyte solution is very small (2 ), which makes it impossible to perform high-current discharge in this type of electrolyte solution, which seriously restricts the rate discharge performance of lithium batteries, resulting in poor rate characteristics of metal lithium batteries, and lithium electrodes are the key to determining battery discharge performance. Therefore, in occasions that require high-power electric energy output, such as electric tools or electric vehicles, metal lithium batteries with lithium foil negative electrodes are difficult to be applied.

Abstract

The invention relates to a preparation method of a powder lithium electrode, which comprises the steps that fillers containing powder lithium are filled in gaps of a foam metal current collector and are pressed to be molded, and then the powder lithium electrode is obtained. According to the preparation method, the electrode containing the powder lithium is adopted, so active substances are pulverized, the specific surface area of the electrode is effectively increased, the discharge current density of the electrode is enhanced, and the battery discharge rate capability is effectively improved, and a metal lithium battery prepared by adopting the electrode can satisfy the requirement of high-power electric energy output; foam copper or foam nickel with a three-dimensional porous structure is adopted as the current collector of the electrode, so direct contact parts of the powder lithium and the current collector of the electrode are guaranteed to be firmly bonded, the bonding force among the powder lithium is guaranteed as well, and powder is effectively prevented from shedding from the electrode when the electrode is used; and conductive powder is mixed into the powder lithium, so the discharge performance of the powder lithium electrode is further improved. The metal lithium battery prepared by adopting the electrode can be widely applied to the fields of high-power hybrid electric tools, electric vehicles, and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of metal lithium batteries, and in particular relates to a preparation method of a powder lithium electrode. Background technique [0002] Lithium metal batteries have attracted much attention for a long time due to their high working voltage and specific discharge capacity. At present, the relatively mature commercial lithium metal batteries mainly include lithium-iodine batteries, lithium-manganese dioxide batteries, lithium-thionyl chloride batteries, etc., which are widely used in daily consumer electronics and portable mobile communications. [0003] Currently known metal lithium batteries usually use lithium foil as the material for making the negative electrode. The foils are pressed together under a certain pressure to obtain metal lithium electrodes. The interfacial properties of this lithium metal electrode largely affect the discharge performance of the electrode. Studies have shown that the ex...
