Lithium-ion battery principle dynamic diagram _ formula and process solutions

Lithium-ion batteries are secondary batteries (rechargeable batteries), which rely mainly on Li+ to work in and out of and between two electrodes. With the continuous development of downstream industries such as energy vehicles, the scale of lithium-ion battery production is continuously expanding.

First, the working principle 1, positive structure

2, negative structure

Graphite + Conductive + Thickener (CMC) + Binder (SBR) + Current Collector (Copper Foil)

3, working principle

3.1 Charging process

A power source charges the battery. At this time, the electron on the positive electrode runs from the external circuit to the negative electrode. Positive lithium ion Li+ “jumps into” the electrolyte from the positive electrode, and “climbs over” the sinuous hole in the diaphragm. Swim" reaches the negative and combines with the electrons that have long since ran. at this time:

The reaction on the positive electrode is:

The reaction on the negative electrode is:

3.2 Battery discharge process

Discharge has a constant current discharge and constant resistance discharge, constant current discharge is actually in the external circuit plus a variable resistance that can change with the voltage change, the essence of the constant resistance discharge is to add a resistor in the battery positive and negative electrodes let the electrons pass. It can be seen that as long as the electrons on the negative electrode cannot run from the negative electrode to the positive electrode, the battery will not be discharged. Both electrons and Li+ act at the same time, but they have the same direction but different paths. When discharging, electrons run from the negative electrode through the electron conductor to the positive electrode, Li+ ions jump from the negative electrode into the electrolyte, and they climb over the diaphragm. The small hole, "swimming" reaches the positive, combined with the electrons that have long since ran.

3.3 Charge and discharge characteristics

The cathode of the cell adopts LiCoO2, LiNiO2, and LiMn2O2. LiCoO2 is a crystalline structure with stable layer structure. However, when the x Li ions are removed from LiCoO2, the structure may change, but whether the change depends on x size.

It was found through research that when x > 0.5, the structure of Li1-xCoO2 was extremely unstable, and the crystalline structure collapsed. The external appearance of Li1-xCoO2 was the overwhelming end of the cell. Therefore, during the use of the cell, the value of x in Li1-xCoO2 should be controlled by limiting the charging voltage. Generally, the charging voltage is not more than 4.2V and then x is less than 0.5. At this time, the crystal form of Li1-xCoO2 is still stable.

The negative electrode C6 has its own characteristics. When it is first converted, Li in the positive electrode LiCoO2 is charged into the negative electrode C6, Li returns to the positive electrode LiCoO2 when discharged, but after the formation, Li must remain in the center of the negative electrode C6. In order to guarantee the normal embedding of the next charge and discharge Li, otherwise the battery core overwhelming is very short, in order to ensure that a part of Li stays in the cathode C6, generally by limiting the discharge lower limit voltage to achieve: the safe charging upper limit voltage ≤ 4.2V, the lower limit of discharge Voltage ≥ 2.5V.

The principle of the memory effect is crystallization, and this reaction hardly occurs in a lithium battery. However, the capacity of lithium-ion batteries will still decrease after multiple charges and discharges. The reasons for this are complex and diverse. It is mainly the change of the positive and negative electrode materials themselves. From the molecular level, the positive and negative holes will gradually collapse and block the hole structure that accommodates lithium ions. From the chemical point of view, positive and negative electrode materials are passivated, resulting in stable side reactions. Other compounds. Physically, there will also be gradual peeling of the positive electrode material, etc., and finally, the number of lithium ions that can be freely moved in the charge-discharge process in the battery is eventually reduced.

Over-charging and over-discharging will cause permanent damage to the positive and negative electrodes of lithium-ion batteries. From the molecular level, it can be intuitively understood that over-discharging will lead to the excessive release of lithium ions from the negative electrode carbon and cause the sheet structure to collapse. Overcharging will force too much lithium ions into the negative carbon structure, leaving some of the lithium ions out of action.

Unsuitable temperatures will trigger other chemical reactions inside the lithium-ion battery to produce compounds we don't want to see, so there are protective temperature-controlled separators or electrolyte additives between the positive and negative electrodes of many lithium-ion batteries. When the temperature of the battery rises to a certain degree, the pores of the composite membrane are closed or the electrolyte is denatured, and the internal resistance of the battery is increased until the circuit is broken. The battery no longer heats up, ensuring that the battery charging temperature is normal.

Second, lithium battery formulation and process 1. Positive and negative electrode formulations

2, positive and negative mix

Graphite: The negative electrode active material, constitutes the main material of the negative electrode reaction; It is mainly divided into natural graphite and artificial graphite. Non-polar substances are easily contaminated by non-polar substances and easily dispersed in non-polar substances; they are not easy to absorb water and are not easily dispersed in water. Contaminated graphite is easily re-agglomerated after being dispersed in water. The general particle size D50 is about 20 μm. The particles have various shapes and irregularities, mainly spherical, flaky, and fibrous.

Conductive agent: Its role is:

a) Improve the conductivity of the negative electrode sheet to compensate for the electronic conductivity of the negative electrode active material.

b) Improve reaction depth and utilization.

c) Prevent dendrite production.

d) Use liquid-absorbing capacity of conductive materials to increase the reaction interface and reduce polarization. (According to the graphite particle size distribution, choose to add or not).

Deionized water (or distilled water): Diluent, added as appropriate, changes the fluidity of the slurry.

Negative lead: Made of copper foil or nickel tape.

2.1 positive mix:

2.1.1 Pretreatment of raw materials

1) Lithium cobaltate: Dehydration. It is usually baked at 120 °C under atmospheric pressure for about 2 hours.

2) Conductive agent: Dehydration. It is usually baked at 200 °C under atmospheric pressure for about 2 hours.

3) Adhesives: Dehydration. It is usually baked at 120-140 °C under atmospheric pressure for about 2 hours. The baking temperature is determined by the size of the molecular weight.

4) NMP: Dehydration. Use dry molecular sieves for dehydration or use special reclaiming facilities for direct use.

2.1.2 Material Milling:

1) At the end of 4 hours, separate the ball mill by sieving;

2) Pour LiCoO2 and Carbon ECP into the drum, add the ball (dry material: grinding ball = 1:1), and perform ball milling on the roller bottle and rotate it at a speed of over 60rpm.

2.1.3 Blending of raw materials:

1) Dissolution of the binder (at standard concentration) and heat treatment.

2) Lithium cobaltate and conductive agent ball milling: The powder is initially mixed, lithium cobaltate and conductive agent are bonded together to improve the agglomeration and conductivity. After being formulated into a slurry, it will not be separately distributed in the binder. The ball milling time is generally about 2 hours; in order to avoid mixing impurities, agate balls are usually used as ball milling mesons.

2.1.4 Dispersion and Wetting of Dry Powder:

Principle: The solid powder is placed in the air. Over time, part of the air will be adsorbed on the surface of the solid. After the liquid binder is added, the liquid and gas will compete for the solid surface; if the solid and gas adsorption force ratio is equal to the liquid The strong adsorption force, the liquid can not wet the solid; if the solid and liquid adsorption force ratio and the gas adsorption force, the liquid can wet the solid, the gas extrusion.

When the wetting angle is ≤ 90°, the solid is wetted. When the wetting angle >90°, the solid does not wet out.

All members of the positive electrode material can be wetted by the binder solution, so the positive electrode powder is relatively easy to disperse.

The effect of the dispersion method on dispersion:

1) Static method (long time, poor effect, but does not damage the original structure of the material);

2) Mixing method: rotation or rotation plus revolution (short time, good effect, but may damage the structure of individual materials).

The effect of the stirring paddle on the dispersion speed: The paddle generally includes a serpentine shape, a butterfly shape, a spherical shape, a paddle shape, a gear shape, and the like. Generally serpentine, butterfly, and paddle type paddles are used to deal with the initial stage of materials or ingredients that are difficult to disperse; spheres and gears are used to disperse difficult states with good results.

The effect of stirring speed on the dispersion speed. In general, the higher the stirring speed, the faster the dispersion speed, but the greater the damage to the material's own structure and equipment.

The effect of concentration on dispersion speed. Under normal circumstances, the smaller the slurry concentration, the faster the dispersion speed, but too thin will lead to material waste and slurry precipitation.

The effect of concentration on bond strength. The greater the concentration, the greater the flexural strength and the greater the bond strength; the lower the concentration, the lower the bond strength.

The effect of vacuum on the dispersion speed. The high vacuum is beneficial to the material gap and the surface of the gas discharge, reduce the difficulty of liquid adsorption; the difficulty of the material in the case of complete weightlessness or gravity reduction will be greatly reduced.

The effect of temperature on the dispersion speed. At a suitable temperature, the slurry has a good fluidity and is easily dispersed. Too hot slurry is easily crusted, and the fluidity of too cold slurry will be greatly reduced.

Dilution: Adjust the slurry to a suitable concentration for easy coating.

2.2.1 Pretreatment of raw materials:

1) Graphite:

A. Mixing to homogenize raw materials and improve consistency.

B. Baking at 300-400°C under normal pressure to remove oily substances on the surface and improve the compatibility with water-based adhesives. The surface corners of the graphite are rounded. (Some materials maintain the surface properties and do not allow baking, otherwise the performance is reduced.) .

2) Water-based adhesive: Diluted properly to improve dispersion.

2.2.2 Blending, soaking and dispersing:

1) Graphite and binder solutions have different polarities and do not easily disperse.

2) The graphite may be initially wetted with an aqueous alcohol solution and then mixed with a binder solution.

3) The stirring concentration should be appropriately reduced to improve the dispersibility.

4) The dispersion process reduces the distance between polar substances and non-polar substances and increases the potential energy or surface energy.

Second, the battery production process

1. (Positive and negative) dry-mixing → Wet-mixing → Rolling paste on the conductive substrate → 3 steps of drying → Winding → Trimming (cut to a certain width) → Rolling → Winding (standby) Dry blending Ball milling The grinding ball is a glass ball or a zirconia ceramic ball;

Wet mixing. Planetary Mixers, whose blades are mounted on 2-3 axes respectively, have better mixing effect. The amount of solvent in the wet mix should be appropriate to form a suitable rheological state for a smooth coating. The roller coating electrode paste must ensure a certain viscosity. The paste is applied on both sides of aluminum foil or copper foil, and the thickness of the coating depends on the battery model. Then, drying is continued through the three heating zones, and NMP (or water) is volatilized from the coating with hot air or dry nitrogen. The solvent can be recovered and reused. Rolling is to increase the density of the coating and to make the thickness of the electrode conform to the size of the battery assembly. The pressure during the rolling stage should be moderate to avoid scattering of the powder during winding.

2, the assembly of the battery

Cylindrical battery assembly process: Insulation bottom ring into the cylinder → winding the battery into the tube → insert the mandrel → welding negative current collector plate in the steel cylinder → insert insulation ring → steel cylinder roll → vacuum drying → liquid injection → combination cap (PTC element, etc.) Welded to the positive electrode lead → Seal → X-ray inspection → Numbering → Formation → Recycling → Aging.

Square battery assembly process flow: Insulation bottom steel box → sheet combination core insert → negative current collector plate welded to steel box → upper sealing gasket → positive current collector plate welded to stem lead → combination cover (PTC element, etc.) Soldered to the lead pole → Positioning of the assembly cover → Laser welding → Vacuum drying → Filling liquid → Sealing → X-ray inspection → Numbering → Chemical conversion → Recycling → Aging.

Assembly process description: Take a cylindrical battery as an example (the basic process of a square battery is the same). Before winding the core into the cylinder, aluminum strips (0.08-0.15 mm thick, 3 mm wide) and nickel strips (0.04-0.10 mm thick, 3 mm wide) were ultrasonically welded to the designated sites of the positive and negative electrode conductive substrates respectively. Stream lead.

The battery separator is generally composed of PE/PP2 or PP/PE/PP 3 layers. The separators are all heat treated at 120°C to increase their resistance and safety.

The positive electrode, the separator, and the negative electrode 3 are stacked and wound into the cylinder. Since the paste electrode is used, the paste material must be well bonded to the substrate to form a high-density electrode, and in particular, the powder should be prevented from passing through the separator. It causes an internal short circuit in the battery.

Before inserting the wound core into the cylinder, placing an insulated bottom into the bottom of the cylinder is designed to prevent internal short circuits in the battery, which is the same for a typical battery.

The electrolyte is generally LiPF6 and a non-aqueous organic solvent. Prior to vacuum injection, the battery is vacuum dried for 24/h to remove moisture and moisture from the battery components to prevent LiPF6 from reacting with water to form HF and shorten the lifetime.

The battery seal adopts sealant, insert gasket, crimping and shrinkage process, the basic principle is the same as alkaline rechargeable battery. After sealing, the battery was cleaned with a mixture of isopropyl alcohol and water to remove oil stains and splashed electrolyte. Use an odor sensor or "sniffer" element to check for battery leakage.

After the entire battery assembly is completed, the battery shall use X-ray to identify whether the internal structure of the battery is normal, check the battery core, cracks in the steel shell, solder joints, and whether there is a short circuit, etc., and eliminate the battery with the above defects to ensure the battery quality.

The last step is chemical conversion. The battery is charged for the first time and a protective film is formed on the anode. This is called the solid electrolyte interlayer (SEI). It prevents the anode from reacting with the electrolyte and is the key to safe operation, high capacity, and long life of the battery. Elements. The battery is aged for 2-3 weeks after several cycles of charge and discharge, and the micro short-circuited battery is removed. After the capacity is sorted and packed, it becomes a product.

Shelf life should be charged to 50% ± 5% before shelving, and then at ambient temperature of 55°C ± 2 It is set aside for seven days under Article C. After 7 days, the battery was taken out and left for 2 to 5 hours at an ambient temperature of 20°C ± 5°C. The battery was discharged to the termination voltage at 0.5C, and charged at 0.2C after 0.5h. After being allowed to stand for 0.5h, it was discharged to a termination voltage at a constant current of 0.5C. This capacity was used as recovery capacity. The above steps were one week cycle until the discharge time of one week was less than 72 minutes (60%) and the test was completed. Shelf life is not less than 56 days (8-week cycle).

2、电池的组装

圆柱电池的装配工艺流程:绝缘底圈入筒→卷绕电芯入筒→插入芯轴→焊负极集流片于钢筒→插入绝缘圈→钢筒滚线→真空干燥→注液→组合帽(PTC元件等)焊到正极引极上→封口→X射线检查→编号→化成→循环→陈化。

方形电池装配工艺流程:绝缘底入钢盒→片状组合电芯入筒→负极集流片焊于钢盒→上密封垫圈→正极集流片焊于杆引极→组合盖(PTC元件等)焊到旋引极上→组合盖定位→激光焊接→真空干燥→注液→密封→X射线检查→编号→化成→循环→陈化。

装配工艺说明:以圆柱形电池为例(方形电池基本过程相同)。卷绕芯入筒以前, 将铝条(0.08—0.15㎜厚、3㎜宽)和镍条(0.04—0.10㎜厚, 3㎜宽)分别用超声波焊接在正、负极导电基体的指定处作为集流引极。

电池隔膜一般采用PE/PP2层或PP/PE/PP 3层组成, 隔膜都是经过120℃热处理过的, 以增加其阻止性和提高其安全性。

正极、隔膜、负极3者叠合后卷绕入筒, 由于采用涂膏电极, 故必须让膏体材料与基体结合得好, 以形成高密度电极, 特别要防止掉粉, 以免其穿透隔膜而引起电池内部短路。

在卷绕电芯插入钢筒以前, 放一个绝缘底入钢筒底部是为了防止电池内部短路这对于一般电池都是相同的。

电解质一般采用LiPF6和非水有机溶剂, 在真空注液以前,电池要真空干燥24/h, 以除去电池组分中的水分和潮气, 以免LiPF6与水反应形成HF而缩短寿命。

电池密封采用涂密封胶、插入垫圈、卷边加断面收缩过程,基本原理与碱性可充电池相同。封口以后, 电池要用异丙醇和水的混合液除去油污物和溅出的电解液, 然后再干燥。使用一种气味传感器或“ 嗅探器”元件检查电池漏液情况。

整个电池装配完成以后, 电池要用X射线鉴定电池内部结构是否正常, 对于电芯不正、钢壳裂缝、焊点情况、有无短路等进行检查, 排除有上述缺陷的电池, 确保电池质量。

最后一道工序是化成, 电池第1次充电, 阳极上形成保护膜, 称为固体电解质中间相层(SEI), 它能防止阳极与电解质反应, 并是电池安全操作、高容量、长寿命的关键要素。电池经过几次充放电循环以后陈化2—3周, 剔去微短路电池, 再进行容量分选包装后即成为商品了。
