Title: Solid electrolyte composite and all-solid-state battery electrode comprising same

Description:
TECHNICAL FIELD 
     The present application claims the benefit of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2019-0046309 filed on Apr. 19, 2019 with the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. The present disclosure relates to a novel solid electrolyte composite and an electrode for an all-solid-state battery comprising the solid electrolyte composite in at least one of a negative electrode and a positive electrode. 
     BACKGROUND ART 
     Compared to batteries using liquid electrolytes, all-solid-state batteries using solid electrolyte materials have the enhanced safety, prevent the leakage of the electrolytes, leading to improved reliability of the batteries, and are easy to manufacture thin batteries. Additionally, they have the improved energy density due to the use of lithium metal for the negative electrode, and accordingly, together with small secondary batteries, they gain much attention in expectation of high capacity secondary batteries for electric vehicles. 
     Since the all-solid-state batteries use solid electrolytes instead of liquid electrolytes, to create an environment for ion movement as in liquid electrolyte batteries in which the electrode is impregnated with liquid electrolyte, i.e., to achieve similar ionic conductivity to batteries using liquid electrolytes, a large amount of solid electrolyte materials is included in the electrode (the positive electrode and the negative electrode). 
     The solid electrolyte material in the electrode comes into contact with the electrode active material or the conductive material, and in this case, electrons may move to the solid electrolyte material. Particularly, in the case of the negative electrode, when the potential reduces, for example, during charging, side reactions may occur such as reduction and decomposition of the solid electrolyte material below a specific potential.  FIG. 1  schematically illustrates the side reaction mechanism.  FIG. 1  illustrates parts of the negative electrode for the conventional all-solid-state battery, schematically showing the negative electrode including a negative electrode active material layer  10  on at least one surface of a current collector  20 , in which a negative electrode active material  11 , a solid electrolyte material  12 , a conductive material  13 , and a binder  14  are mixed in the negative electrode active material layer. For example, when a graphite-based material is used as the negative electrode active material, side reactions increase and initial efficiency reduces due to low reduction stability of the solid electrolyte included in the negative electrode, which makes it difficult to develop high energy density batteries.

Additionally, a lithium salt is preferably introduced into the composition. In this instance, the solid electrolyte is preferably present in an amount of 1 wt % to 50 wt % based on the passivation film composition.

That is, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, the solid electrolyte composite may be obtained by (S1) coating a passivation layer composition on the surface of the particulate solid electrolyte material, and (S2) providing the coated solid electrolyte material to polymerization reaction so that the polymerizable unit forms a polymer. Describing in more detail, a polymerizable unit of polyvinylene carbonate-based polymer, a particulate solid electrolyte material, a lithium salt and a polymerization initiator are mixed with a non-aqueous organic solvent to prepare a passivation film composition, and the solvent is removed to obtain a composite precursor coated with a passivation film precursor. The solvent removal may be performed by drying. Subsequently, a passivation film including the polyvinylene carbonate-based polymer may be formed on the surface of the particulate solid electrolyte material by polymerization of the polymerizable unit by heating or UV irradiation of the composite precursor. 
     In the present disclosure, the polymerization initiator may be at least one suitable polymerization initiator selected from an azo-based initiator and a peroxide initiator, and is not limited thereto. For example, the polymerization initiator may include an azo-based initiator, and in the present disclosure, the polymerization initiator may be at least one suitable polymerization initiator selected from an azo-based initiator and a peroxide initiator, and is not limited thereto.

     According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the thickness of the passivation film may range from 10 nm to 1 μm. When the thickness of the passivation film is smaller than 10 nm, it is impossible to suppress side reactions caused by electron movement in the electrode. On the other hand, when the thickness of the passivation film is larger than 1 μm, high resistance occurs at the interface and battery characteristics may be deteriorated.

     Graphite, carbon black, polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) and LAGP solid electrolyte powder (Li 1.5 Al 0.5 Ge 1.5 (PO 4 ) 3 ) are mixed at a weight ratio of 80:1:4:15, the mixture is applied to a 20 μm thick copper thin film using a doctor blade, and the result is dried under a vacuum at 60° C. for 4 hours. Subsequently, the vacuum dried result is rolled using a roll press to obtain an electrode having the electrode loading of 2 mAh/cm 2 , the electrode layer thickness of 48 μm and the porosity of 22 vol %. 
     (2) Manufacture of Battery 
     The manufactured negative electrode is punched into a round shape of 1.4875 cm 2 . A lithium metal thin film cut into a round shape of 1.7671 cm 2  is prepared as a counter electrode. A solid electrolyte layer (100 μm in thickness) is interposed between the two electrodes to manufacture a coin-type half-cell. For the solid electrolyte membrane, a mixture of polyethylene oxide (PEO) and LiTFSI at [EO]/[Li + ]=9:1 (molar ratio) is used.

     (1) Manufacture of Negative Electrode 
     A negative electrode is obtained by the same method as Comparative Example 1, except that LPS solid electrolyte powder (Li 2 S—P 2 S 5 ) is used instead of LAGP solid electrolyte powder (Li 1.5 Al 0.5 Ge 1.5 (PO 4 ) 3 ), and graphite, carbon black and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) and the LPS solid electrolyte powder are mixed at a weight ratio of 67:1:2:30. The obtained electrode has the electrode loading of 2 mAh/cm 2 , the electrode layer thickness of 48 μm and the porosity of 22 vol %.

     Comparative Example 3 
     (1) Preparation of Solid Electrolyte Composite 
     Polyethylene oxide (PEO) and LiTFSI are added to acetonitrile at a weight ratio of 6:4 and mixed together (solution 1). An initiator (AIBN) is added to the solution 1 at the concentration of 0.5 wt % (solution 2). Subsequently, LPS solid electrolyte powder (Li 2 S—P 2 S 5 ) is added to the solution 2 at the concentration of 10 wt % and stirred overnight at room temperature (solution 3). Subsequently, the solution 3 is filtered, and the solid electrolyte powder is dried under a vacuum at room temperature to remove the residual solvent. Subsequently, secondary vacuum drying is performed by heat treatment (80° C.), thereby obtaining a solid electrolyte composite having a PEO passivation layer on the surface of the electrolyte powder.

     Graphite, carbon black and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) and the solid electrolyte composite are mixed at a weight ratio of 67:1:2:30, the mixture is applied to a 20 μm thick copper thin film using a doctor blade, and the result is dried under a vacuum at 60° C. for 4 hours.

A solid electrolyte film (100 μm in thickness) is interposed between the two electrodes to manufacture a coin-type half-cell.

     Evaluation of Electrochemical Properties 
     The initial efficiency is evaluated by charging/discharging the batteries prepared in each of the Examples and Comparative Examples under the following conditions. The experimental temperature is room temperature (25° C.). 
     Charged at 0.1 C to 0.005V in CC/CV mode, 0.05 C cut-off 
     Discharged at 0.1 C to 1.5V in CC mode. 
     The results are summarized in Table 1 below. According to the results, in the case of comparative examples, due to reduction reaction of the electrolyte at low potential (less than 1V) in the initial charge, the charge capacity is too high and the initial efficiency is low, while in the case of examples, side reactions of the electrolyte are suppressed and the charge capacity is improved compared to comparative examples.
