Abstract

This application provides a lithium metal battery, and relates to the battery field. The lithium metal battery includes a positive electrode, a negative electrode, a separator disposed between the positive electrode and the negative electrode, and an electrolytic solution infiltrating the separator. The negative electrode includes a negative electrode current collector and a lithium-aluminum alloy layer disposed on at least one surface of the negative electrode current collector; and the electrolytic solution includes an electrolyte and a solvent, where the solvent contains a film-forming agent, and the film-forming agent is FEC and/or DFEC.

Claims (15)

1 . A lithium metal battery, comprising: a positive electrode, a negative electrode, a separator disposed between the positive electrode and the negative electrode, and an electrolytic solution infiltrating the separator,

wherein the negative electrode comprises a negative electrode current collector and a lithium-aluminum alloy layer disposed on at least one surface of the negative electrode current collector; and the electrolytic solution comprises an electrolyte and a solvent, wherein the solvent contains a film-forming agent, and the film-forming agent comprises FEC and/or DFEC.

2 . The lithium metal battery according to claim 1 , wherein a mass percentage of aluminum in the lithium-aluminum alloy layer is 0.1% to 3%.

3 . The lithium metal battery according to claim 1 , wherein an adhesion strength between the lithium-aluminum alloy layer and the negative electrode current collector is ≥0.01 N/mm.

4 . The lithium metal battery according to claim 1 , wherein thickness of the lithium-aluminum alloy layer is 10 μm to 40 μm.

5 . The lithium metal battery according to claim 1 , wherein a mass percentage of the film-forming agent in the solvent is 15% to 80%.

6 . The lithium metal battery according to claim 1 , wherein the electrolyte comprises LiFSI and/or LiTFSI.

7 . The lithium metal battery according to claim 1 , wherein a molar concentration of the electrolyte in the electrolytic solution is 0.5 mol/L to 6 mol/L.

8 . The lithium metal battery according to claim 1 , wherein the surface of the negative electrode comprises Li 3 N and/or LiF after the lithium metal battery is formatted.

9 . The lithium metal battery according to claim 8 , wherein the surface of the negative electrode further comprises lithium oxynitride after the lithium metal battery is formatted.

10 . The lithium metal battery according to claim 2 , wherein the mass percentage of aluminum in the lithium-aluminum alloy layer is 0.3% to 2%.

11 . The lithium metal battery according to claim 4 , wherein thickness of the lithium-aluminum alloy layer is 15 μm to 30 μm.

12 . The lithium metal battery according to claim 5 , wherein the mass percentage of the film-forming agent in the solvent is 15% to 55%.

13 . The lithium metal battery according to claim 7 , wherein the molar concentration of the electrolyte in the electrolytic solution is 0.8 mol/L to 4 mol/L.

14 . An apparatus, comprising the lithium metal battery according to claim 1 .
