Problems solved by technology

Today, although lithium anodes are once again favored by researchers, the problems of low Coulombic efficiency and short cycle life caused by dendrite growth have not yet been resolved. Therefore, in order to realize the practical development of metal lithium anodes, it is necessary to first There is a clear understanding of the problems with lithium anodes
However, a single method cannot solve all the problems of lithium anodes, such as artificial SEI films, which can increase Coulombic efficiency and improve the mechanical, physical and chemical properties of SEI films, but lithium anodes still have volume effect problems, such as using three-dimensional lithium anodes , can greatly alleviate the volume effect of the lithium deposition / dissolution process, but the three-dimensional current collector also has the problem of poor SEI film quality. Due to the large specific surface area of ​​the three-dimensional current collector, the formation of a large amount of SEI film deteriorates the Coulomb of the battery. efficiency

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of lithium metal batteries, in particular to the preparation of metal lithium anodes of lithium metal batteries. Background technique [0002] Lithium secondary batteries are mainly lithium metal batteries and lithium ion batteries. The anode material of lithium-ion battery is mainly carbon material, and its charge and discharge process mainly produces Li + Intercalation and deintercalation in carbon material structures. However, the anode of a metal lithium battery is usually a single substance of metal lithium, and the mechanism of action in the battery is the deposition and dissolution of metal lithium, and its charge and discharge mechanism is: charging: Li + +e=Li; discharge: Li-e=Li + . Lithium metal batteries and lithium-ion batteries have different material requirements and different charging and discharging mechanisms. Although they are similar on the surface, they are actually completely differ...
