Problems solved by technology

However, the complete removal of the Cu substrate will bring many challenges, such as the inhomogeneity of the surface leading to uneven exfoliation and / or deposition of Li and the local presence of large currents at the junctions, resulting in a significant increase in the local temperature.
In addition, lithium becomes granular during cycling, greatly reducing its electronic conductivity
In addition, lithium metal batteries tend to produce uneven lithium deposition and form dendrites on the surface of the metal lithium anode during the charging process. On the one hand, it will cause a decrease in the charging cycle life of lithium batteries; Will puncture the separator and cause a short circuit in the battery

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of lithium batteries, in particular to a negative electrode collector composite, a preparation method thereof, and a lithium metal battery. Background technique [0002] Lithium batteries are generally divided into lithium ion batteries and lithium metal batteries, and their components include a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a current collector corresponding to the positive electrode and the negative electrode. The working principle of a lithium battery is to charge and discharge the battery by intercalating and deintercalating lithium ions back and forth between the positive and negative electrodes. Since the active materials used in the positive and negative electrodes of the battery have poor conductivity, it is necessary to install a current collector on the electrodes to collect the current generated by the active materials and improve the conductivity of the electrodes. [0003] The positive ele...
