2. Core Technologies for Enhancing Extreme Environment Reliability
I.Low-Temperature Solutions:
Electrolyte Anti-Freezing: Using FEC/EMC mixed solvents (freezing point -45°C) increases -30°C discharge capacity retention from 35% to 65%.
Anode Interface Reinforcement: Constructing a 3D LiF@C composite layer on silicon-carbon anode surfaces enhances lithium-ion intercalation kinetics at low temperatures.
II.High-Temperature Protection:
High-Temperature Resistant Electrolyte: Adding Ethylene sulfate (DTD) stabilizes the SEI film, raising its thermal decomposition temperature from 150°C to 190°C.
Cathode Coating Modification: Coating LiNi₀.₈Mn₀.₁Co₀.₁O₂ (NMC811) surfaces with a Li₃PO₄ layer (20nm thick) suppresses transition metal dissolution (dissolution rate < 0.5%).
III.Temperature & Humidity Mitigation:
Moisture-Resistant Electrolyte: Adding Trimethyl phosphate (TMP) as a hydrophobic agent reduces water permeability by >60%.
Corrosion-Resistant Current Collector: Micro-arc oxidation treatment (3μm thick film) on aluminum foil reduces corrosion current in humid/thermal environments to <0.05 μA/cm².
3. Extreme Environment Test Validation System
I.Low-Temperature Testing:
● Low-T Discharge/Start-up: Test discharge performance, cold-cranking capability (simulating vehicle cold start), and capacity retention at very low temperatures (e.g., -40°C, -30°C).
● Low-T Charging: Test safe charging limits (current, voltage) and lithium plating risk at low temperatures.
● Low-T Cycling: Perform charge/discharge cycles at low temperatures to assess capacity fade and internal resistance growth.
● Low-T Storage: Evaluate performance recovery at room temperature after long-term low-temperature storage.
II.High-Temperature Testing:
● High-T Discharge: Test discharge performance, rate capability, and temperature rise at very high temperatures (e.g., +60°C, +70°C, +85°C).
● High-T Charging: Test charging acceptance capability, thermal management requirements, and safety risks at high temperatures.
● High-T Cycling: Perform charge/discharge cycles at high temperatures to accelerate assessment of lifetime degradation and aging mechanisms.
● High-T Storage: Assess capacity recovery, internal resistance change, and safety status (e.g., swelling, leakage) after long-term high-temperature storage (e.g., 7 days, 30 days, 60 days).
III.Temperature Shock/Cycling:
● Rapid Temperature Change: Subject batteries to rapid switching between high and low temperatures (e.g., -40°C ↔ +85°C) in a very short time, examining material interface stability and seal integrity.
● Temperature Cycling: Conduct multiple slow cycles within a defined temperature range (e.g., -40°C to +85°C) to assess the effects of thermomechanical stress.
