Problems solved by technology

Lithium metal will spontaneously react with the electrolyte to form a solid electrolyte interface film (SEI), which is continuously damaged and repaired as the volume of the negative electrode expands during the charge-discharge cycle, resulting in continuous consumption of lithium metal and electrolyte, reducing the Coulombic efficiency of lithium metal batteries and cycle life
[0004] At present, relevant solutions have been proposed, and the growth of dendrites can be suppressed by designing a 3D framework structure and using a solid electrolyte, but there are still some problems to be solved urgently.
The 3D skeleton structure can slow down the growth of dendrites by reducing the current density, but it cannot isolate the direct contact between lithium metal and the electrolyte to inhibit the occurrence of side reactions; while the inorganic solid-state electrolysis has high mechanical strength, but the interface impedance is large, and the contact with lithium metal is poor. ; Although the polymer electrolyte has good flexibility and elasticity, the ionic conductivity at room temperature is relatively low (about 10 -7 S cm -1 )
However, the method of using sputtering treatment is relatively complicated, and the dense silicon oxide layer will reduce the ion conductivity and increase the interface resistance

Abstract

This patent proposes the preparation and application of a lithium metal negative electrode with an oxide layer. The extruded lithium metal is soaked in organic esters, and ex-situ hydrolysis and polycondensation form a stable porous oxide layer, which effectively inhibits the continuous reaction and consumption of the electrolyte and lithium metal, and improves the battery cycle stability.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the preparation and application of a lithium metal negative electrode with an oxide layer. Background technique [0002] Currently, the world market for electric vehicles and portable electronic devices including passenger cars, buses and passenger cars is growing rapidly. Lithium-ion batteries with high charge-discharge voltage and long cycle life are widely used as power sources for portable electronic devices and electric vehicles, but due to the limitation of their theoretical energy density, new electrode materials with higher energy density need to be developed. Among them, lithium metal as anode material has a high theoretical energy density (3860mAh g -1 ) and the advantages of low electrochemical potential (-3.040V vs. SHE) have attracted great attention from researchers in recent years. [0003] However, there are still two problems to be solved in the application of lithium metal anodes. One is the lithium dendrit...
