Description
- 1. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates to an electrode plate for use in nonaqueous electrolyte secondary batteries typically including lithium-ion secondary batteries and to a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery using thereof.
- 2. Description of the Related Art
- Recent years have seen rapid advances in miniaturization and weight reduction of electronic equipment and communication equipment. Thus, there has been a demand for miniaturization and weight reduction of secondary batteries for use as a driving power source in such equipment. For this purpose, in place of conventional alkaline storage batteries, there have been proposed nonaqueous electrolyte secondary batteries, typically lithium-ion secondary batteries, which can have a high energy density and a high voltage.
- An electrode plate for use as a positive electrode of the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery (a positive electrode plate) is produced by using a complex oxide such as lithium manganate and lithium cobaltate as a positive active material, dispersing or dissolving the positive active material, an electrically-conductive material and a binder in an appropriate wetting agent (solvent) to prepare a slurry-like coating composition, and applying the coating composition onto a collector made of metal foil so that a positive active material layer is formed thereon.
- On the other hand, an electrode plate for use as a negative electrode of the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery (a negative electrode plate) is produced by using a carbonaceous material such as carbon capable of occluding cation (such as lithium ion) as a negative active material, in which the cation is released from the positive active material at the time of charging, dispersing or dissolving the negative active material and a binder in an appropriate wetting agent (solvent) to prepare a slurry-like coating composition, and applying the coating composition onto a collector made of metal foil so that a negative active material layer is formed thereon.
- A terminal for taking out electric current is then attached to each of the positive and negative electrode plates, both of which are then wound up with a separator (for preventing short circuit) sandwiched therebetween and sealed in a container filled with a nonaqueous electrolyte solution, so that a secondary battery is constructed.
- In recent years, there has also been a demand for a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery with higher capacity, and various improvements have been made. An example of such improvements is to tightly wind the electrode plates for the purpose of increasing the amount of the active material to be stored in the limited volume, namely, a method of increasing the winding density of the electrode plates. However, an increased winding density can lead to a reduction in voids for infiltration of the liquid electrolyte, so that the liquid electrolyte can less infiltrate into the active material layer. Such reduced infiltration of the liquid electrolyte can lead to poor battery performance, even if the winding density of the electrode plate is increased for the purpose of increasing the capacity.
- Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open (JP-A) No. 09-129223 discloses a method of ensuring paths for a liquid electrolyte by embossing the active material layer. In such a method, however, a load can locally be applied to projection portions of the embossed material, when the electrode plates are wound up. Thus, such a method can cause a rupture of the electrode due to expansion and contraction of the volume during charge and discharge cycles and has a problem with stability of quality.
- The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances. It is therefore a first object of the invention to provide an electrode plate for nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery which can facilitate infiltration of a liquid electrolyte even when wound at high density and can have high stability of quality.
- It is a second object of the invention to provide a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery with high capacity and high quality constructed using the above-mentioned electrode plate.
- The present invention is directed to an electrode plate for a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery, which comprises a collector and an active material layer provided on one side or both sides of the collector, in which the active material layer has a slit or slits.
- In the electrode plate for a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery of the present invention, the active material layer has a slit or slits. Such a slit functions as a path for a liquid electrolyte, when the electrode plates are closely laminated to each other. Such a slit canal so increase the surface area of the active material layer. Even when electrode plates wound at a high density are placed in a battery case, the liquid electrolyte can easily infiltrate into the active material layer so that charges can rapidly move between the electrodes and that a high voltage or a high current can be produced. In addition, the active material layer has no projection portion and thus can be free from a locally applied load. Therefore, the electrode can be prevented from being ruptured by expansion and contraction of the volume during charge and discharge cycles and can exhibit high stability of quality.
- In another aspect, the invention is directed to a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery, comprising the above electrode plate for a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to the present invention. In this secondary battery, the winding density of the electrode plate can be increased for the purpose of increasing the capacity, because the electrode plates packed inside can facilitate infiltration of a liquid electrolyte even when wound at high density and can have high stability of quality. Therefore, in this secondary battery a larger amount of the active material can be stored in the limited volume, so that the battery can stably offer high capacity and high quality performance for a long time.

The active material layer may be formed by repeating application and drying more than once.
- In the drying process, the heat source may be hot air, infrared radiation, microwave, high-frequency wave, or any combination thereof. In the drying process, heat maybe released from a heated metal roller or sheet for supporting or pressing the collector and used for drying. By radiating electron beams or radioactive rays after the drying, the binders are caused to crosslink-react so that the active material layer can be obtained. Application and drying may be repeated more than once.
- In addition, the resulting positive or negative active material layer may be pressed so that the active material layer can have a higher density or improved homogeneity or exhibit increased adhesion to the collector.
- For example, the press working is performed using a metal roll, an elastic roll, a heating roll, a sheet pressing machine, or the like. In the present invention, the press-working may be performed at room temperature or raised temperature as far as the press temperature is lower than the temperature for drying the coating layer of the active material layer. The press-working is usually performed at room temperature (typically ranging from 15 to 35° C.)
- Roll press is preferred, because it allows continuous press working of a long sheet-shaped negative electrode plate. The roll press may be static press or constant pressure press. The line speed of the press is generally from 5 to 50 m/min. When the pressure of the roll-press is controlled by line pressure, the line pressure, which is adjusted dependently on the diameter of the pressing roll, is usually set to 0.5 kgf/cm to 2 tf/cm.
- When sheet pressing is performed, the pressure is generally controlled in the range from 4903 to 73550 N/cm2 (500 to 7500 kgf/cm2), preferably in the range from 29420 to 49033 N/cm2 (3000 to 5000 kgf/cm2). If the pressing pressure is too low, the active material layer can be less homogeneous. If the pressing pressure is too high, the electrode plate itself including the collector can be broken. The active material layer may be pressed once so as to have the desired thickness or may be pressed several times for the purpose of improving the homogeneity.
- The coating amount of the positive or negative active material layer is generally from 100 to 400 g/m2. The thickness of the coating is generally set in the range from 50 to 200 μm after the drying and pressing processes. The density of the negative active material layer may be about 1.0 g/cc after the coating process but can be increased to at least 1.5 g/cc (generally about 1.5 to 1.75 g/cc) after the pressing process. When the press working is performed without any trouble so as to improve the volume energy density, a high capacity battery can be produced.
- The resulting active material layer of the electrode plate contains at least the positive or negative active material and the binder and optionally the electrically conductive agent and/or any other component. After the drying process, the content of each component in the active material layer may be the same as the above content based on the amount of the solid components of the active material layer coating composition.
- According to the present invention, one or more slits are formed in the resulting active material layer. Thus, even when the electrode plates are wound at high density, there is no projection portion so that a locally applied load can be avoided, and the electrolyte can easily infiltrate into the active material layer.
- The slit or slits of the positive or negative active material layer may be formed in any pattern. For example, as shown in the
FIG. 1 , theslits 3 maybe formed in the form of lines inclined against the windingdirection 2 of the electrode plate in theactive material layer 1. For other examples, as shown in theFIG. 2 , the slits may be formed perpendicular (FIG. 2 (a)) or parallel (FIG. 2 (b)) to the windingdirection 2 of the electrode plate or formed by the intersection of lines (FIG. 2 (c)) inclined against the windingdirection 2 of the electrode plate in theactive material layer 1. The slit or slits may also be formed in a curved pattern. For example, the slit or slits may be formed using a rotary die unit as shown inFIG. 3 or the like. It should be noted that the collector serving as a substrate for the active material layer should not be damaged when the slit or slits are formed in the active material layer. - In terms of infiltration, the depth of the slit is preferably about 5 μm or more, more preferably about 8 μm or more, particularly preferably about 10 μm or more. In terms of infiltration, the width of the slit is preferably about 10 μm or more, more preferably from about 10 to about 50 μm, particularly preferably from about 15 to about 40 μm.
- A too wide spacing between the slits cannot improve the infiltration of the electrolyte, while a too narrow spacing between the slits can make the active material layer brittle. Thus, the
distance 4 between the adjacent slits is preferably from about 0.1 to about 10 mm, more preferably from about 1 to about 10 mm, particularly preferably from about 2 to about 5 mm. - According to the above description, the inventive electrode plate for nonaqueous electrolyte secondary batteries can be obtained, and nonaqueous electrolyte secondary batteries are produced using the present electrode plate.
- The nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery of the present invention comprises a positive electrode plate and a negative electrode plate, in which at least one of the positive and negative plates comprises the electrode plate for a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery of the present invention; preferably, both positive and negative plates comprise the electrode plate for a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery of the present invention.
- The electrode plate for a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to the present invention is used as at least one of the positive and negative electrode plates, which are wound into a swirl form with a separator such as a porous polyethylene film interposed therebetween and inserted into a packing container. After the insertion, a lead is connected between a terminal connection part of the positive electrode plate (an exposed surface of the collector) and a positive terminal provided on the upper surface of the packing container, while another lead is connected between a terminal connection part of the negative electrode plate (another exposed surface of the collector) and a negative terminal provided on the bottom surface of the packing container. The packing container is then filled with a liquid nonaqueous electrolyte and sealed so that a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery comprising the electrode plate according to the present invention is completed.
- In this secondary battery, the winding density of the electrode plate can be increased for the purpose of increasing the capacity, because the electrode plates packed inside can facilitate infiltration of a liquid electrolyte even when wound at high density and can have high stability of quality. Therefore, in this secondary battery a larger amount of the active material can be stored in the limited volume, so that the battery can stably offer high capacity and high quality performance for a long time.
- When a lithium secondary battery is produced, a solution of a lithium salt (which is a solute) in an organic solvent is used as the liquid nonaqueous electrolyte. The lithium salt may be an inorganic lithium salt such as LiClO4, LiBF4, LiPF6, LiAsF6, LiCl, and LiBr; or an organic lithium salt such as LiB(C6H5)4, LiN(SO2CF3)2, LiC(SO2CF3)3, LiOSO2CF3, LiOSO2C2F5, LiOSO2C3F7, LiOSO2C4F9, LiOSO2C5F11, LiOSO2C6F13, and LiOSO2C7F15.
- Examples of the organic solvent for use in dissolving the lithium salt include cyclic esters, chain esters, cyclic ethers, and chain ethers. Specific examples of the cyclic esters include ethylene carbonate, propylene carbonate, butylene carbonate, γ-butyrolactone, vinylene carbonate, 2-methyl-γ-butyrolactone, acetyl-γ-butyrolactone, and γ-valerolactone.
- Examples of the chain esters include dimethyl carbonate, diethyl carbonate, dibutyl carbonate, dipropyl carbonate, methyl ethyl carbonate, methyl butyl carbonate, methyl propyl carbonate, ethyl butyl carbonate, ethyl propyl carbonate, butyl propyl carbonate, alkyl propionate, dialkyl malonate, and alkyl acetate.
- Examples of the cyclic ethers include tetrahydrofuran, alkyltetrahydrofuran, dialkyltetrahydrofuran, alkoxytetrahydrofuran, dialkoxytetrahydrofuran, 1,3-dioxolane, alkyl-1,3-dioxolane, and 1,4-dioxolane.
- Examples of the chain ethers include 1,2-dimethoxyethane, 1,2-diethoxyethane, diethyl ether, ethylene glycol dialkyl ether, diethylene glycol dialkyl ether, triethylene glycol dialkyl ether, and tetraethylene glycol dialkyl ether.
- As described above, in the electrode plate for a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to the present invention, the slit or slits of the active material layer ensure a path or paths for a liquid electrolyte even at high winding density and can increase the surface area of the active material layer. Even when electrode plates wound at high density are placed in a battery case, the liquid electrolyte can easily infiltrate into the active material layer so that charges can rapidly move between the electrodes and that a high voltage or a high current can be produced. In addition, the active material layer has no projection portion and thus can be free from a locally applied load. Therefore, the electrode can be prevented from being ruptured by expansion and contraction of the volume during charge and discharge cycles and can exhibit high stability of quality. Thus, the electrode plate for a nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery of the invention can suppress the production of defectives and can achieve high capacity and high quality.
- In addition, in the nonaqueous electrolyte secondary battery according to the present invention, the winding density of the electrode plate can be increased for the purpose of increasing the capacity, because the electrode plates packed inside can facilitate infiltration of a liquid electrolyte even when wound at high density and can have high stability of quality. Therefore, in this secondary battery a larger amount of the active material can be stored in the limited volume, so that the battery can stably offer high capacity and high quality performance for a long time.
- A positive active material layer coating composition was prepared by dispersing and mixing 100 parts by weight of LiCoO2 (positive active material), 2.5 parts by weight of acetylene black (electrically conductive agent for positive electrode), 2 parts by weight of polyvinylidene fluoride (binder for positive electrode), and 45 parts by weight of N-methyl pyrrolidone (solvent) in a planetary disperser. The positive active material layer coating composition was applied to both sides of a 15 μm thick aluminum foil so as to have a dry coating amount of about 250 g/m2 per one side. Thereafter, the coating was dried and pressed so that a positive electrode plate with a coating film density of 3.7 g/cc was obtained. Slits were then formed in the positive electrode plate through a rotary die unit. The slits were formed with a depth of 10 μm, a width of 10 μm. And a distance between the adjacent slits was 5 mm. The positive electrode plate was cut so as to have a width of 56 mm.
- On the other hand, a negative active material layer coating composition was prepared by dispersing and mixing 100 parts by weight of graphite (negative active material), 5 parts by weight of polyvinylidene fluoride (binder for negative electrode), and 70 parts by weight of N-methylpyrrolidone (solvent) in a planetary disperser. The negative active material layer coating composition was applied to both sides of a 10 μm thick copper foil so as to have a dry coating amount of about 100 g/m2 per one side. Thereafter, the coating was dried and pressed so that a negative electrode plate was obtained. The resulting positive and negative electrode plates were tightly wound with a separator interposed therebetween to be inserted into a packing container. And, as electrolyte, a solution of 1 M LiPF6 in ethylene carbonate/methyl ethyl carbonate (1/1) was injected thereto.
- The process of Example 1 was performed except that through the rotary die unit, the slits was formed with a depth of 20 μm, a width of 20 μm and a distance between the adjacent slits of 5 mm in the positive electrode for use, after the press.
- The process of Example 1 was performed except that through the rotary die unit, the slits was formed with a depth of 3 μm, a width of 5 μm and a distance between the adjacent slits of 5 mm in the positive electrode for use, after the press.
- The process of Example 1 was performed except that no slit was formed in the positive electrode plate for use, after the press.
- (Results of Evaluation)
- The electrode plate obtained in each of Examples and Comparative Example was evaluated in terms of infiltration of the liquid electrolyte as shown below. In each of Examples 1 to 3 with theelectrode plate of the present invention, the active material layer of the electrode plate had slits according to the present invention, and thus the electrode plate was able to be wound without any locally applied force. In addition, the liquid electrolyte easily infiltrated, even when the electrodes were wound at high density. In Examples 1 and 2 with a slit depth of at least 5 μm, infiltration characteristic of the electrolyte was particularly good. In Comparative Example 1 with no the electrode plate of the invention, the active material layer of the electrode plate had no slit, and thus infiltration characteristic of the electrolyte was poor, when the electrode was wound at the same density as in each of Examples.
