Embodiments of this application relate to the field of secondary battery technologies, and in particular, to a solid-state electrolyte and a preparation method thereof, and a secondary battery.
With the development of economy and technologies, most electronic industries (such as portable electronic devices, uncrewed aerial vehicles, and electric vehicles) urgently need safer energy storage devices with higher energy density, higher power density, and a longer cycle life. However, a current lithium-ion battery based on a graphite negative electrode is close to an upper limit of energy density, and cannot meet an endurance requirement and a standby requirement of a user for the foregoing device. A metal negative electrode such as lithium, sodium, or potassium has a high theoretical specific capacity and a low electrochemical potential, to greatly improve energy density of a secondary battery and significantly improve user experience. However, the metal negative electrode has problems such as high chemical activity (which causes low coulombic efficiency), dendrite growth (which causes a side reaction and a safety risk), and large volume expansion (continuous cracking and reconstruction of a SEI membrane). When a liquid-state electrolyte is used, it is very likely to cause safety risks such as flammability and explosiveness. This hinders the commercialization process of the high-energy density battery based on the metal negative electrode.
To resolve the problems of the metal negative electrode, the researchers replaced the liquid-state electrolyte with a solid-state electrolyte. The solid-state electrolyte mainly includes a polymer electrolyte, an inorganic electrolyte (such as a sulfur compound electrolyte or an oxide electrolyte), and an organic-inorganic composite electrolyte. The polymer electrolyte has good processing performance, but has a low conductivity at a room temperature, a low quantity of transported cations, and low resistance to oxidation. The inorganic electrolyte has high ion conductivity, but has poor processing performance and poor electrode interface contact. The organic-inorganic composite electrolyte can make up their deficiencies to some extent. However, the existing organic-inorganic composite electrolyte still has problems such as a low quantity of transported cations, low ion conductivity, and poor composite uniformity, and cannot well facilitate improvement of comprehensive performance of the battery based on the metal negative electrode.
In view of this, an embodiment of this application provides a solid-state electrolyte. The solid-state electrolyte presents a conduction characteristic of a single cation, so that concentration polarization in a battery system can be effectively avoided and growth of a metal negative electrode dendrite can be suppressed, thereby improving electrochemical performance and safety performance of a battery.
Specifically, a first aspect of an embodiment of this application provides a solid-state electrolyte. The solid-state electrolyte includes a porous coordination polymer having an unsaturated metal site, an anionic group coordinated with and grafted on the unsaturated metal site, and a cation bound with the anionic group. The anionic group includes one or more substituted carboxylate anionic groups and/or one or more substituted sulfonate anionic groups. The cation includes one or more of a lithium ion, a sodium ion, a potassium ion, a magnesium ion, a zinc ion, and an aluminum ion. The anionic group is coordinated with and fastened to the unsaturated metal site of the porous coordination polymer. In this way, the solid-state electrolyte can implement fast transmission of a single cation under a poor solvent or even no solvent condition, and has a high quantity of transported cations, thereby avoiding concentration polarization caused due to anion movement in an electrochemical system and reducing internal impedance. In addition, growth of a metal negative electrode dendrite can also be effectively suppressed, thereby significantly improving electrochemical performance and safety performance of the battery.

In step (2), in the liquid electrolyte of the salt containing the cation, the salt containing the cation may include one or more of hexafluorophosphate, hexafluoroarsenate, perchlorate, tetrafluoroborate, bisoxalatoborate, difluoro(oxalato)borate, bisfluorosulfonimide, and bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide that contain the cation. For example, the salt containing the cation may be lithium hexafluorophosphate, lithium hexafluorarsenate, lithium perchlorate, lithium tetrafluoroborate, lithium bisoxalatoborate, lithium difluoro(oxalato)borate, lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide, or lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide. The organic solvent may be the foregoing liquid electrolyte solvent, for example, a carbonate solvent, an ether solvent, or a carboxylate solvent; or may be another organic solvent in the solvent in step (1), such as acetonitrile. A time period of the stirring for the reaction may be 6 hours to 48 hours. In a process of performing the stirring for the reaction, ion exchange is implemented between the cation in the salt containing the cation and the anionic group. After the stirring for the reaction is completed, a powder sample of the coordination polymer electrolyte may be obtained by performing drying at 60° C. to 100° C. In this embodiment of this application, when the solvent used in the liquid electrolyte of the salt containing the cation is a commonly used liquid electrolyte solvent, if the final solid-state electrolyte needs to include a specific amount of the liquid electrolyte solvent, the electrolyte may be not completely dried, so that only a part of the liquid electrolyte solvent is reserved. When the solvent used in the liquid electrolyte of the salt containing the cation is not a commonly used liquid electrolyte solvent but another organic solvent, if the final solid-state electrolyte needs to include a specific amount of the liquid electrolyte solvent, the electrolyte needs to be fully dried, and then an appropriate amount of the liquid electrolyte solvent is added.
In a specific implementation of this application, a preparation process of the solid-state electrolyte includes: dispersing an organic ligand and a metal salt at a molar ratio of 1:(1-4) in a solvent, performing ultrasonic dispersion and performing stirring for 10 minutes to 60 minutes, placing a mixed liquor into a reaction kettle at 80° C. to 350° C. for a solvothermal reaction, washing a product obtained through the reaction, and heating the product for 1 hour to 12 hours at 80° C. to 350° C. in vacuum for activation to obtain the powder sample. Then, the powder sample activated through heating is dispersed in the solution of the compound having the anionic group, and stirring is performed for 6 hours to 48 hours. The compound having the anionic group is coordinated with and grafted on the unsaturated metal site. After the reaction is completed, a sample obtained after the grafting is collected. Afterwards, the sample obtained after the grafting is dried and placed in the liquid electrolyte of the salt containing the cation. Stirring is performed for 6 hours to 48 hours for ion exchange. Drying is performed at 60° C. to 100° C. to obtain the powder sample of the coordination polymer electrolyte. Then, the powder sample of the coordination polymer electrolyte is dispersed in an organic solvent containing a binding agent. Blade coating is performed to obtain an electrolyte membrane. Finally, the electrolyte membrane is rolled to a target thickness.
The preparation method of the solid-state electrolyte in this embodiment of this application is simple. In addition, it is easy to obtain raw materials, thereby facilitating large-scale preparation.
