以联苯在高电压下的电聚合反应用于锂离子电池过充保护.实验表明,于电解液中加入的联苯可在4.5～4.75V(相对于Li/Li+)下发生氧化电聚合反应,生成的导电聚合物可使过充的电池自动放电至更安全的充电状态.同时,电聚合产物使电池内阻升高、内压增大,从而提高了与其联用的保护装置的灵敏度.在正常充放电状态下,联苯的加入基本不影响电池的综合电性能.
The electropolymerization of biphenyl at overcharged positive electrode was investigated for overcharge protection of Li_ion batteries. Biphenyl in electrolyte as an additive can electrochemically polymerize at 4.5～4.75 V(vs. Li/Li+) to form a layer of conductive film on cathode surface. The surface film increases the internal resistance and the gases released during the electropolymerization also increases the internal pressure of the batteries, which therefore enhance the sensitivities of the electrical disconnecting devices. During prolonged overcharge, the growth of the conductive polymer film can create short circuit between the positive and negative electrodes and cause self_discharge of the batteries to a safer state. Furthermore, no severe detrimental effects were observed on the battery performances in normal state of charge_discharge.
