Description

Modified diaphragm and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of lithium batteries, in particular to a modified diaphragm and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
In the construction of lithium batteries, the separator is one of the critical inner layer components. The performance of the diaphragm determines the interface structure, internal resistance and the like of the battery, directly influences the capacity, circulation, safety performance and other characteristics of the battery, and the diaphragm with excellent performance plays an important role in improving the comprehensive performance of the battery. The separator has the main function of separating the positive electrode from the negative electrode of the battery, preventing the two electrodes from being contacted and short-circuited, and also has the function of passing electrolyte ions. In the lithium battery system, since the electrolyte is an organic solvent system, a separator material resistant to an organic solvent is required, and a polyolefin porous film having a high strength and a thin film is generally used.
However, the existing polyolefin diaphragm has high crystallinity, low surface energy, small polarity, poor affinity with electrolyte, poor wettability and poor liquid retention, and poor contact with the surfaces of positive and negative plates, thus easily causing the increase of internal resistance of the lithium ion battery. Therefore, the membrane needs to be modified, and a layer of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) or polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) is coated on the surface of the polyolefin membrane by a plurality of factories so as to achieve the aim of improving the affinity of the polyolefin membrane and electrolyte and the interface adhesion of the polyolefin membrane and a pole piece. However, the existing PMMA or PVDF is coated with a thin layer, so that the existing detection means are difficult to monitor the uniformity of the coating and whether the coating is successful or not in the coating process.
In view of the foregoing, it is necessary to provide a solution to the above-mentioned problems.
Disclosure of Invention
One of the objects of the present invention is: the invention provides a modified diaphragm to solve the problem that whether the coating on the surface of the diaphragm is uniform cannot be judged at present, the modified diaphragm can be accurately characterized in terms of the uniformity of the coating on the surface of the diaphragm, and the affinity of the diaphragm to electrolyte can be increased.
In order to achieve the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical scheme:
a modified separator comprising:
a base film;
a modifying layer coated on at least one surface of the base film;
wherein the modified layer comprises a transparent modifier and manganese dioxide, and the content of the manganese dioxide is 0.5 mg/mL-5 mg/mL.
According to the modified diaphragm provided by the invention, a certain amount of manganese dioxide is added, the color of the modified diaphragm is brown yellow, the brown-yellow manganese dioxide is mixed with the transparent modifier, the problem that the coating uniformity of the transparent modifier cannot be judged because the transparent modifier is strong in light transmittance and thin in coating layer can be effectively solved, and after the manganese dioxide is added, the CCD camera can detect the coating uniformity through the color difference, so that the problem that the coating uniformity of a modified layer is difficult to detect at present is solved.
Among these, the crystal structure of manganese dioxide is generally divided into three categories: pore channel structure, layered structure, and spinel structure. The basic unit of manganese dioxide is [ MnO ] 6 ]The octahedron structure is formed by coordinating six oxygen atoms and one manganese atom, so that a hexagonal close-packed structure or a cubic close-packed structure is formed. Among them, the most common composition is [ MnO ] 6 ]The octahedron shares edges or apex angles with similar octahedrons, thereby forming a tunnel structure with gaps, and the complex and changeable combination mode not only can store various ions and compounds, but also can be used as a place for storing lithium ions. Therefore, the manganese dioxide and the transparent modifier are mixed, so that the affinity of the diaphragm to electrolyte can be effectively improved, and the liquid retention of the diaphragm can be improved.
Preferably, the manganese dioxide is prepared by a hydrothermal method, the reaction temperature is 100-180 ℃, and the reaction time is 5-20 h. More preferably, the reaction temperature may be 100 to 110 ℃, 110 to 120 ℃, 120 to 130 ℃, 130 to 140 ℃, 140 to 150 ℃, 150 to 160 ℃, or 170 to 180 ℃; the reaction time can be 5 to 6 hours, 6 to 8 hours, 8 to 10 hours, 10 to 12 hours, 12 to 14 hours, 14 to 16 hours or 16 to 20 hours. In the hydrothermal preparation, the temperature and time of the hydrothermal reaction have great influence on the morphology and particle size of manganese dioxide, and the excessively high reaction temperature accelerates the formation of the morphology of the manganese dioxide nano-sheet and shortens the reaction time, but is not beneficial to the control of the size of the manganese dioxide nano-sheet, so that manganese dioxide powder with large particle size and poor morphology uniformity is easily obtained. And at the excessively low reaction temperature, the formation of the morphology of the manganese dioxide nano-sheet is slow, the reaction time is long, and the purity of the obtained manganese dioxide is not high.
Preferably, the method for preparing the manganese dioxide by the hydrothermal method comprises the following steps:
dissolving manganese acetate in absolute ethyl alcohol, adding furfural, continuously stirring, transferring to a reaction kettle, heating at 100-180 ℃ for 5-20 h for reaction, cooling, centrifuging, washing and drying to obtain a carbon composite manganese oxide precursor;
annealing the obtained carbon composite manganese oxide precursor for 2-6 hours at 400-500 ℃ to obtain the platy manganese dioxide.
Preferably, the reaction temperature in the reaction kettle is 130-150 ℃ and the reaction time is 8-12 h. The inventor of the invention has found that, through a large number of experiments and repeated verification, the structure of the manganese dioxide layer can be slowly formed at the reaction temperature of 150 ℃, the manganese dioxide layer is basically molded for about 8 hours, the manganese dioxide powder with uniform morphology and particle size of about 20 μm can be prepared and obtained under the reaction condition, and the manganese dioxide powder and PMMA slurry can be mixed and coated on a base film more uniformly.
Preferably, the manganese dioxide may have a particle size of 1 to 5 μm, 5 to 10 μm, 10 to 15 μm, 15 to 20 μm, 20 to 25 μm, or 25 to 30 μm. Manganese dioxide of a suitable particle size is not only more advantageous for its mixing with PMMA syrup, but also for uniform coating on the base film after mixing of both.
The method for synthesizing manganese dioxide comprises a hydrothermal method, a sol-gel method, a solid-phase synthesis method, an electrochemical deposition method, a coprecipitation method and the like, but different preparation methods have great influence on the crystal form, the size, the morphology and the like of manganese dioxide, for example, manganese oxide can be obtained by using high-temperature carbonized manganate, but the purity of the oxide prepared by the method is low, the granularity is large, and the morphology uniformity is poor; in addition, even though the preparation method is the same, different reaction conditions can have great influence on the crystal form, size and morphology of manganese dioxide. The invention prepares manganese dioxide by adopting a hydrothermal method, and the manganese dioxide powder with high purity, good dispersibility, uniform morphology and proper particle size is obtained by regulating and controlling various reaction conditions such as temperature, time and the like, and the modified layer slurry obtained by mixing the manganese dioxide powder with the transparent modifier can be more uniformly coated on a base film, so that the coating uniformity of the transparent modifier is further ensured, and meanwhile, the coating uniformity of the transparent modifier is monitored in real time by adding the brown yellow manganese dioxide.
Preferably, the mass ratio of the transparent modifier to the manganese dioxide is (92-97): (1-8). More preferably, the mass ratio of the transparent modifier to the manganese dioxide may be 92:8, 93:7, 94:6, 95:5, 95.5:4.5, 96:4, or 97:3.
Wherein the transparent modifier is polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) or polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF). PMMA is the best polymer transparent material at present, the light transmittance can reach 92 percent, and is higher than that of glass, and when the PMMA is applied to a modified layer, the adhesive force between a diaphragm and a pole piece can be greatly increased, and the problem that the internal resistance of a lithium ion battery is easily increased due to the fact that the conventional polyolefin diaphragm is in poor contact with the surfaces of positive and negative pole pieces is solved. The mass ratio of PMMA to transparent modifier is set by combining the content of manganese dioxide, on one hand, the content of the PMMA to the transparent modifier cannot be too low to avoid the unobvious color characterization of the modified layer and the uniformity of the coating of the modified layer cannot be accurately characterized; on the other hand, the content of the polyolefin-based film cannot be too high, so that the blocking of holes of the polyolefin-based film caused by the too high content is avoided.
Preferably, the modified layer further comprises a dispersing auxiliary, and the mass ratio of the transparent modifier to the manganese dioxide to the dispersing auxiliary is (92-97): (1-5): (1-5). When PMMA and manganese dioxide are mixed, the dispersing auxiliary is added, so that the wettability of the slurry to the diaphragm and the viscosity of the slurry are increased, and the dispersion and subsequent coating of PMMA and manganese dioxide are facilitated. More preferably, the mass ratio of the transparent modifier, the manganese dioxide and the dispersing aid may be 92:3.5:4.5, 93:3:4, 94:2.5:3.5, 95.5:2:2.5, or 96:2:2.
Preferably, the dispersing aid includes carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), and polyacrylic acid. Wherein the mass of CMC is 0.5-2 wt% of the mass of the dispersing auxiliary, the mass of PVA is 0.1-1 wt% of the mass of the dispersing auxiliary, and the mass of polyacrylic acid is 2-6 wt% of the mass of the dispersing auxiliary.
Preferably, the modified separator further comprises a ceramic layer coated between the base film and the modified layer. The ceramic layer comprises SiO 2 、Al2O 3 、TiO 2 By introducing the ceramic layer, the ceramic particles have excellent high temperature resistance and are very stable at 100-300 ℃, so that the thermal stability and mechanical property of the diaphragm can be effectively enhanced.
Preferably, the coating thickness of the modified layer is 0.1 μm to 3 μm. The modified layer is mainly used for improving the adhesion between the diaphragm and the pole piece, and the too thick coating layer easily causes the blockage of a porous structure of the base film so as to influence the transmission of lithium ions, and particularly, the diaphragm added with manganese dioxide is a substance which is not easy to coat, so that the coating thickness of the modified layer is controlled so as not to influence the performance of the lithium ion battery. More preferably, the coating thickness of the modified layer is 0.1 to 0.5 μm, 0.5 to 1 μm, 1 to 1.5 μm, 1.5 to 2 μm, 2 to 2.5 μm, or 2.5 to 3 μm.
The second object of the invention is to provide a method for preparing a modified diaphragm, comprising the following steps:
mixing manganese dioxide solution with a transparent modifier to obtain modified layer slurry; wherein the manganese dioxide content in the manganese dioxide solution is 0.5 mg/mL-5 mg/mL;
and coating the modified layer slurry on at least one surface of the base film, and drying to obtain the modified diaphragm.
Preferably, the preparation method comprises the following steps:
firstly mixing the manganese dioxide solution with a dispersing auxiliary, and then mixing the mixture with the transparent modifier to obtain modified layer slurry;
and coating the modified layer slurry on at least one surface of the base film, and drying to obtain the modified diaphragm.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide applications of the modified separator including, but not limited to, the following two:
1. a method for characterizing the coating uniformity of a diaphragm, wherein a CCD camera is used for detecting the modified diaphragm according to any one of the above, and the uniformity of the coating of a modified layer in the modified diaphragm is characterized by detecting the difference of colors.
2. A lithium ion battery comprises a positive plate, a negative plate and a diaphragm which is arranged between the positive plate and the negative plate, wherein the diaphragm is the modified diaphragm of any one of the above.
Compared with the prior art, the invention has the beneficial effects that:
1) According to the modified diaphragm provided by the invention, a certain amount of manganese dioxide is added, the color of the modified diaphragm is brown yellow, the brown-yellow manganese dioxide is mixed with the transparent modifier, the problem that the coating uniformity of the transparent modifier cannot be judged because the transparent modifier is strong in light transmittance and thin in coating layer can be effectively solved, and after the manganese dioxide is added, the CCD camera can detect the coating uniformity through the color difference, so that the problem that the coating uniformity of a modified layer is difficult to detect at present is solved.

In the hydrothermal preparation, the temperature and time of the hydrothermal reaction have great influence on the morphology and particle size of manganese dioxide, and the excessively high reaction temperature accelerates the formation of the morphology of the manganese dioxide nano-sheet and shortens the reaction time, but is not beneficial to the control of the size of the manganese dioxide nano-sheet, so that manganese dioxide powder with large particle size and poor morphology uniformity is easily obtained. And at the excessively low reaction temperature, the formation of the morphology of the manganese dioxide nano-sheet is slow, the reaction time is long, and the purity of the obtained manganese dioxide is not high.

Further, the manganese dioxide may have a particle size of 1 to 5 μm, 5 to 10 μm, 10 to 15 μm, 15 to 20 μm, 20 to 25 μm, or 25 to 30 μm. Manganese dioxide of suitable particle size not only facilitates its mixing with PMMA syrup but also facilitates uniform coating of both after mixing on the base film 1.
Specifically, the preparation method of the manganese dioxide in the embodiment comprises the following steps:
s1, dissolving 0.8653g of manganese acetate in 70mL of absolute ethyl alcohol, and stirring for 30min;
s2, adding 2g of furfural, continuously stirring for 1h, transferring to a 100mL polytetrafluoroethylene reaction kettle, and heating at 150 ℃ for 10h for reaction;

Wherein the transparent modifier is polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) or polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF). PMMA is the best polymer transparent material at present, the light transmittance can reach 92 percent, and is higher than that of glass, and when the PMMA is applied to the modified layer 2, the adhesive force between a diaphragm and a pole piece can be greatly increased, and the problem that the internal resistance of a lithium ion battery is easily increased due to the fact that the conventional polyolefin diaphragm is in poor contact with the surfaces of positive and negative pole pieces is solved. The mass ratio of PMMA to transparent modifier is set by combining the content of manganese dioxide, on one hand, the content of the PMMA to transparent modifier cannot be too low to avoid the unobvious color characterization of the modified layer 2, and the uniformity of the coating of the modified layer 2 cannot be accurately characterized; on the other hand, the content thereof should not be too high, so that clogging of the pores of the polyolefin-based film 1 due to excessive high content is avoided.
Further, the modified layer 2 further comprises a dispersing auxiliary, and the mass ratio of the transparent modifier to the manganese dioxide to the dispersing auxiliary is (92-97): (1-5): (1-5).

Comparative example 1
A modified separator comprising a base film and a modifying layer; the modified layer is coated on at least one surface of the base film; wherein the modifying layer comprises a transparent modifier which is polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA).
Comparative example 2
The separator of this comparative example is a conventional polyolefin separator and does not include a modified layer.
Comparative example 3
A modified separator comprising a base film and a modifying layer; the modified layer is coated on at least one surface of the base film; wherein the modified layer comprises manganese dioxide, and the content of the manganese dioxide is 0.5 mg/mL-5 mg/mL.
Further, modified separators of examples 4 to 10 were prepared with reference to example 1 described above, and the reaction conditions of manganese dioxide are different from example 1, and specific conditions are shown in table 1.
TABLE 1
Figure BDA0003078605750000111
Figure BDA0003078605750000121
Performance tests, including tests of color, contact angle, and liquid absorption, were performed on the separators in examples 1, 4 to 10 and comparative examples 1 to 3 described above.
1) Color: the modified separator in comparative example 1 was almost the same in color as the separator in comparative example 2, and it could not be judged by naked eyes whether the base film was uniformly coated with the modified layer; the modified membrane in example 1 was pale brown yellow, and the naked eye could directly determine whether there was a uniform coating of the modified layer on the base membrane, and the color was detected by a CCD camera to characterize the uniformity of the coating in the modified layer.
2) Contact angle: as shown in fig. 2 to 3, the contact angle of the separator in comparative example 2 was 128 °, whereas the contact angle of the modified separator in example 1 of the present invention was 48 °. Therefore, the contact angle of the conventional diaphragm is 128 degrees, and the conventional diaphragm is not wetted, and compared with the conventional diaphragm or the modified diaphragm without the manganese dioxide, the contact angle of the conventional diaphragm and electrolyte is reduced, which indicates that the transparent modifier coating with single liquid absorption rate is better due to the addition of the manganese dioxide, and the affinity between the diaphragm and the electrolyte is increased.
3) Liquid absorption rate: as shown in fig. 4 and table 2 below, the modified separator of the present invention had an increase in liquid absorption compared to either the conventional separator or the conventional modified separator, which was also consistent with the previous contact angle test results. However, it can be seen from the comparison of examples 1 and 4 to 10 that a preferable membrane liquid absorption rate can be obtained by controlling the reaction conditions of manganese dioxide. The method is mainly characterized in that the reaction condition of manganese dioxide has a great influence on the morphology of the prepared manganese dioxide, and the conditions provided by the invention can obtain manganese dioxide powder with high purity, good dispersibility, uniform morphology and proper particle size, so that the manganese dioxide powder can be better mixed with PMMA to be more uniformly coated on a base film, and the liquid absorption rate of the diaphragm is further effectively improved.

Therefore, the modified diaphragm solves the problem that whether the coating on the surface of the diaphragm is uniformly coated or not can not be judged at present, the coating uniformity of the surface coating of the modified diaphragm can be accurately represented, the affinity of the diaphragm to electrolyte can be increased, and the performance of a lithium ion battery is improved.
