摘要:

锂离子电池凭借其能量密度高、输出电压高、循环寿命长等优点而广泛应用于各大领域,然而其在低温应用场景下电化学性能较差,严重限制了其应用。本文采用不同氟取代位置的氟取代苯作为稀释剂,制备了在室温和低温均具有优异循环性能的低温电解液。结果表明,间二氟苯作为低温电解液的稀释剂制备的低温电解液(13DFB)在-20 ℃的电导率为1.252 mS/cm,同时具有5.2 V的宽电化学窗口。间二氟苯稀释剂有效抑制SEI中的Li2CO3的形成,且对LiNi0.6Co0.2Mn0.2O2 (NCM 622)正极颗粒有显著的保护作用。在-20 ℃和4.4 V截止电压下,采用改性低温电解液组装的Li/NCM622的软包电池可稳定循环200圈,容量保持率为92.8%。本工作提出的方法简单有效,可提升电解液的低温性能,并展示了其在实际中应用的潜力。

Abstract:

Lithium-ion batteries are widely used across various industries owing to their superior characteristics such as high energy density, high output voltage, and prolonged cycle life. However, their electrochemical efficiency drastically declines in low-temperature conditions, constraining their practical applications. To overcome this limitation, a novel low-temperature electrolyte, distinguished by exceptional cycling performance at ambient and low temperatures, was developed using fluoro-substituted benzene with varied fluorine substitution positions as diluents. Notably, the use of 1, 3-difluorobenzene as a diluent led to the development of an electrolyte, designated as 13DFB, exhibiting a conductivity of 1.252 mS/cm at -20 ℃ and a broad electrochemical window of 5.2 V. The inclusion of 1, 3-difluorobenzene in the electrolyte considerably reduces the formation of Li2CO3 in solid-electrolyte interphase and provides a protective layer to LiNi0.6Co0.2Mn0.2O2 (NCM 622) cathode particles. Moreover, when this modified electrolyte is used in a pouch cell configuration with a Li/NCM 622 combination at -20 ℃ and a cutoff voltage of 4.4 V, it achieves stable cycling for 200 cycles with a capacity retention of 92.8%. This study introduces an effective and straightforward strategy to enhance the low-temperature performance of electrolytes, demonstrating substantial potential for practical deployment.
