Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a filter and an air battery having the filter.
  • lithium ion secondary batteries are used as storage batteries for mobile phones, mobile personal computers, electric vehicles, etc., but when considering the energy density and volumetric energy density, the energy density is still not sufficient. Therefore, a metal-air secondary battery that can make the theoretical capacity of the battery larger than that of the lithium ion secondary battery has attracted attention.

  • Each active material of the positive electrode and the negative electrode undergoes a chemical reaction to release energy. By taking out the released energy as electric energy, the function as a battery is developed.
  • the metal-air secondary battery has a metal as a negative electrode active material in the negative electrode, but utilizes oxygen in the atmosphere existing outside the battery as the positive electrode active material. For this reason, the weight of the positive electrode active material is zero despite the infinite number of positive electrode active materials. Accordingly, the metal-air secondary battery can significantly increase the weight energy density and the volume energy density compared to the conventional battery such as a lithium ion secondary battery, thereby making the battery lighter and smaller.

The metal ions block the gas exchange port (hereinafter also referred to as “air hole”), leading to deterioration of the performance of the air battery. Therefore, for example, in order to prevent leakage from the inside of the battery, a method of pressure bonding a multilayer film made of a fluororesin has been proposed (see Patent Document 1). However, in this proposal, in the unlikely event that the liquid leaks, the electrolyte solution contains metal ions, which may block the gas exchange port and cause a failure. Furthermore, there is a problem that metal ions have an adverse effect on the human body and the environment.

Description

フィルタ及び空気電池Filter and air battery
 本発明は、フィルタ及び該フィルタを有する空気電池に関する。 The present invention relates to a filter and an air battery having the filter.
 現在、携帯電話、モバイルパソコン、電気自動車等の蓄電池として、リチウムイオン二次電池が使用されているが、重量エネルギー密度や体積エネルギー密度を考慮した場合、エネルギー密度はまだまだ十分とはいえない。そこで、電池の理論容量をリチウムイオン二次電池よりも大きくすることが可能とされている金属空気二次電池が注目を集めている。 Currently, lithium ion secondary batteries are used as storage batteries for mobile phones, mobile personal computers, electric vehicles, etc., but when considering the energy density and volumetric energy density, the energy density is still not sufficient. Therefore, a metal-air secondary battery that can make the theoretical capacity of the battery larger than that of the lithium ion secondary battery has attracted attention.
 リチウムイオン二次電池等の従来の電池では、正極及び負極のそれぞれの電極には、酸化還元反応の素となる活物質が内包されている。正極及び負極のそれぞれの活物質は化学反応を起こすことでエネルギーが放出される。放出されたエネルギーを電気エネルギーとして取り出すことで、電池としての機能が発現している。一方、金属空気二次電池は、負極には負極活物質として、金属を有しているが、正極活物質として、電池の外部に存在する大気中の酸素を利用している。このため、無限に正極活物質が存在するにもかかわらず正極活物質の重量はゼロである。これに従い、金属空気二次電池は、リチウムイオン二次電池等の従来の電池と比べて、重量エネルギー密度及び体積エネルギー密度を大幅に向上させることが可能となり、電池をより軽量かつ小型にすることが可能となる。 In a conventional battery such as a lithium ion secondary battery, each of the positive electrode and the negative electrode includes an active material that is a source of an oxidation-reduction reaction. Each active material of the positive electrode and the negative electrode undergoes a chemical reaction to release energy. By taking out the released energy as electric energy, the function as a battery is developed. On the other hand, the metal-air secondary battery has a metal as a negative electrode active material in the negative electrode, but utilizes oxygen in the atmosphere existing outside the battery as the positive electrode active material. For this reason, the weight of the positive electrode active material is zero despite the infinite number of positive electrode active materials. Accordingly, the metal-air secondary battery can significantly increase the weight energy density and the volume energy density compared to the conventional battery such as a lithium ion secondary battery, thereby making the battery lighter and smaller. Is possible.
 前記金属空気二次電池は、酸素を正極活物質として用いるため、電池の内部と外部で、酸素の出入りが必要となる。このため、電池の正極の大気に面している部分には、ガス交換口が設けられている。しかし、空気を取り込むだけでなく、電池内部の電解液が漏液することも起こりえる。更に、漏液した電解液中には、触媒を構成する金属イオンが溶解している。金属イオンがガス交換口(以下、「空気孔」と称することもある)を塞いでしまい、空気電池の性能の劣化に繋がる。
 そこで、例えば、電池内部からの漏液を防止するために、フッ素樹脂からなる多層膜を圧着する方法が提案されている(特許文献1参照)。しかし、この提案では、万が一漏液した場合には、電解液中には金属イオンが含まれているため、ガス交換口を塞いでしまい障害が発生するおそれがある。更に、金属イオンは人体や環境に対しても悪影響を与えてしまうという課題がある。
Since the metal-air secondary battery uses oxygen as a positive electrode active material, oxygen needs to enter and exit inside and outside the battery. For this reason, a gas exchange port is provided in a portion of the battery that faces the atmosphere of the positive electrode. However, not only can air be taken in, but the electrolyte inside the battery can leak. Further, metal ions constituting the catalyst are dissolved in the leaked electrolyte. The metal ions block the gas exchange port (hereinafter also referred to as “air hole”), leading to deterioration of the performance of the air battery.
Therefore, for example, in order to prevent leakage from the inside of the battery, a method of pressure bonding a multilayer film made of a fluororesin has been proposed (see Patent Document 1). However, in this proposal, in the unlikely event that the liquid leaks, the electrolyte solution contains metal ions, which may block the gas exchange port and cause a failure. Furthermore, there is a problem that metal ions have an adverse effect on the human body and the environment.

図1は、本発明の空気電池の一例を示す概略断面図である。FIG. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing an example of the air battery of the present invention.
(フィルタ)
 本発明のフィルタは、キレート膜と、吸着膜及び酸性固体膜の少なくともいずれかとを有してなり、更に必要に応じてその他の部材を有してなる。
(filter)
The filter of the present invention includes a chelate film and at least one of an adsorption film and an acidic solid film, and further includes other members as necessary.
 前記フィルタとしては、前記吸着膜と前記キレート膜を有することが好ましく、空気電池の電解液中の金属イオンのトラップ効果の点で、前記吸着膜と前記キレート膜と前記酸性固体膜を有することがより好ましく、外界から(空気電池内に装着した場合には正極ケース側から)、前記吸着膜と前記キレート膜と前記酸性固体膜とをこの順に有することが、特に好ましい。
 これは、空気電池は、正極活物質として空気中の酸素を用いた電池であるため、電池の正極面に空気を取り込むためのガス交換口が正極ケースに設けられている。しかし、前記ガス交換口から、空気を取り込むだけでなく、電池内部の電解液が漏液することも起こり得る。漏液した電解液中には、正極触媒等を構成する金属イオンが溶解している。金属イオンはガス交換口を塞ぎ、空気電池の性能の劣化に繋がる。また、金属イオンは人体や環境に対しても悪影響を与える。
 したがって、電池内部のガス交換口の内側、即ち、電解液が漏れる経路にフィルタを設けると共に、前記フィルタは、金属イオンのトラップ効果の点で、外界から(空気電池内に装着した場合には正極ケース側から)、前記吸着膜と前記キレート膜と前記酸性固体膜とをこの順に有することが特に好ましい。
The filter preferably includes the adsorption film and the chelate film, and has the adsorption film, the chelate film, and the acidic solid film in terms of the trap effect of metal ions in the electrolyte of the air battery. More preferably, it is particularly preferable to have the adsorption film, the chelate film, and the acidic solid film in this order from the outside (from the positive electrode case side when mounted in an air battery).
Since the air battery is a battery using oxygen in the air as a positive electrode active material, a gas exchange port for taking air into the positive electrode surface of the battery is provided in the positive electrode case. However, not only can air be taken in from the gas exchange port, but the electrolyte inside the battery can also leak. In the leaked electrolyte, metal ions constituting the positive electrode catalyst and the like are dissolved. The metal ions block the gas exchange port and lead to deterioration of the performance of the air battery. Metal ions also have an adverse effect on the human body and the environment.
Accordingly, a filter is provided inside the gas exchange port inside the battery, that is, in the path through which the electrolyte solution leaks, and the filter is externally connected to the positive electrode (when installed in an air battery) in terms of the trap effect of metal ions. It is particularly preferable to have the adsorption film, the chelate film, and the acidic solid film in this order from the case side.

<Chelate film>
The chelate film contains a chelate substance, and further contains other components as necessary. The chelate film preferably has a base material.
-キレート物質-
 前記キレート物質としては、空気電池の電解液中に含まれる金属イオンと錯体を形成可能な物質であれば特に制限はなく、目的に応じて適宜選択することができ、例えば、ASDA(L-アスパラギン酸-N,N-2酢酸)、CyDTA(trans-シクロヘキサンジアミン4酢酸)、CP(カルボキシメチルポリエチレンイミン)、DTPA(ジエチレントリアミン6酢酸)、DPTA-OH(1,3-ジアミノ-2-ヒドロキシプロパン4酢酸)、DHEG(ジヒドロキシエチルグリシン)、DHEDDA(ジヒドロキシエチルエチレンジアミン2酢酸)、EDTA(エチレンジアミン4酢酸)、EDTMP(エチレンジアミン4メチレンリン酸)、GEDTA(グリコールエーテルジアミン4酢酸)、HEDP(ヒドロキシエチリデン2リン酸)、HEDTA(ヒドロキシエチルエチレンジアミン3酢酸)、HIDA(ヒドロキシエチルイミノ2酢酸)、NTMP(ニトリロ3メチレンリン酸)、NTA(ニトリロ3酢酸)、PDTA(1,3-プロパンジアミン4酢酸)、PBTC(ホスフォノブタントリカルボン酸)、TTHA(トリエチレンテトラアミン6酢酸)、などが挙げられる。これらは、1種単独で使用してもよいし、2種以上を併用してもよい。これらの中でも、キレート効果が高く、安価な点で、EDTA(エチレンジアミン4酢酸)が特に好ましい。
 前記EDTA等のキレート物質は、電解液中の金属イオンMn+と下記反応式で示すように錯体形成反応を起こし、金属キレート錯体を形成し、金属イオンのイオン半径が大きくなる。また、金属キレート錯体は、金属イオンに比べて人体に安全なものである。したがって、万が一、金属キレート錯体を含む電解液が電池系外に漏液した場合でも金属イオンそのものを含む電解液よりも安全である。

-Chelating substances-
The chelating substance is not particularly limited as long as it is a substance capable of forming a complex with a metal ion contained in an electrolyte solution of an air battery, and can be appropriately selected depending on the purpose. For example, ASDA (L-asparagine Acid-N, N-2acetic acid), CyDTA (trans-cyclohexanediaminetetraacetic acid), CP (carboxymethylpolyethyleneimine), DTPA (diethylenetriaminehexaacetic acid), DPTA-OH (1,3-diamino-2-hydroxypropane4) Acetic acid), DHEG (dihydroxyethyl glycine), DHEDDA (dihydroxyethyl ethylenediamine diacetic acid), EDTA (ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid), EDTMP (ethylenediamine 4-methylene phosphoric acid), GEDTA (glycol ether diamine tetraacetic acid), HEDP (hydroxyethylidene 2 Acid), HEDTA (hydroxyethyl ethylenediamine triacetic acid), HIDA (hydroxyethylimino diacetic acid), NTMP (nitrilo 3 methylene phosphoric acid), NTA (nitrilo triacetic acid), PDTA (1,3-propanediamine tetraacetic acid), PBTC (phosphonobutane tricarboxylic acid), TTHA (triethylenetetraamine 6 acetic acid), etc. are mentioned. These may be used individually by 1 type and may use 2 or more types together. Among these, EDTA (ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid) is particularly preferable because of its high chelating effect and low cost.
The chelate substance such as EDTA causes a complex formation reaction with the metal ion M n + in the electrolytic solution as shown in the following reaction formula to form a metal chelate complex, and the ion radius of the metal ion is increased. Further, the metal chelate complex is safer to the human body than the metal ion. Therefore, even if the electrolyte containing the metal chelate complex leaks out of the battery system, it is safer than the electrolyte containing the metal ions themselves.

It can be made by impregnation and drying.
 前記キレート膜の平均厚みは、50μm~500μmが好ましく、100μm~400μmがより好ましい。前記平均厚みが、50μm未満であると、キレート膜が薄すぎて、キレート物質の量が少なくなるため、十分なキレート効果が得られないことがあり、500μmを超えると、キレート膜が厚すぎて、空気の通り道を塞いでしまうことがある。 The average thickness of the chelate film is preferably 50 μm to 500 μm, more preferably 100 μm to 400 μm. If the average thickness is less than 50 μm, the chelate film is too thin and the amount of chelate substance decreases, so that a sufficient chelate effect may not be obtained.

<吸着膜>
 前記吸着膜は、吸着物質を含み、更に必要に応じて、その他の成分を含んでなる。前記吸着膜は、基材を有することが好ましい。
<Adsorption film>
The adsorbing film contains an adsorbing substance, and further contains other components as necessary. The adsorption film preferably has a base material.
 前記吸着物質としては、物質の表面及び内部の少なくともいずれかが多孔質構造を有し、前記金属イオンと前記キレート物質から形成された錯体を吸着可能な有機物又は無機物であれば特に制限はなく、目的に応じて適宜選択することができ、例えば、活性炭、ゼオライト、シリカゲルなどが挙げられる。これらは、1種単独で使用してもよいし、2種以上を併用してもよい。これらの中でも、吸着力が高く、安価である点から、活性炭が特に好ましい。
 前記キレート物質と金属イオンから形成された金属キレート錯体の直径は0.5nm程度であるため、活性炭等の吸着物質で容易に吸着される。これに対し、金属イオンは、直径が0.1nm~0.2nmと小さいため、活性炭等の吸着物質で吸着されない。
The adsorbing substance is not particularly limited as long as at least one of the surface and the inside of the substance has a porous structure, and can be an organic substance or an inorganic substance that can adsorb the complex formed from the metal ion and the chelate substance. It can be appropriately selected depending on the purpose, and examples thereof include activated carbon, zeolite, silica gel and the like. These may be used individually by 1 type and may use 2 or more types together. Among these, activated carbon is particularly preferable because it has high adsorption power and is inexpensive.
Since the diameter of the metal chelate complex formed from the chelate substance and metal ions is about 0.5 nm, it is easily adsorbed by an adsorbent such as activated carbon. On the other hand, since the metal ion has a small diameter of 0.1 nm to 0.2 nm, it is not adsorbed by an adsorbent such as activated carbon.
 前記その他の成分としては、特に制限はなく、目的に応じて適宜選択することができ、例えば溶媒、分散剤などが挙げられる。前記溶媒としては、例えば水、メタノール、エタノール、プロパノールなどが挙げられる。 The other components are not particularly limited and may be appropriately selected depending on the intended purpose.

For example, a slurry in which a substrate such as filter paper is dissolved in an adsorbent such as activated carbon in a solvent such as propanol. It can be prepared by applying and drying.
 前記吸着膜の平均厚みは、50μm~500μmが好ましく、100μm~400μmがより好ましい。前記平均厚みが、50μm未満であると、吸着膜が薄すぎて、吸着物質の量が少なくなるため、十分な吸着効果が得られないことがあり、500μmを超えると、吸着膜が厚すぎて、空気の通り道を塞いでしまうことがある。 The average thickness of the adsorption film is preferably 50 μm to 500 μm, more preferably 100 μm to 400 μm.

If the average thickness exceeds 500 μm, the adsorbing film is too thick. , May block the passage of air.
<酸性固体膜>
 前記酸性固体膜は、酸性固体物質を含み、更に必要に応じて、その他の成分を含有してなる。前記酸性固体膜は、基材を有することが好ましい。

The acidic solid substance is a substance that can react with the electrolytic solution of the air battery to lower the hydrogen ion concentration of the electrolytic solution, and can be reduced to a hydrogen ion concentration of less than 7 when dissolved in an aqueous solution. Specifically, the substance is not particularly limited as long as it is a substance composed of a weak base and a strong acid, and can be appropriately selected according to the purpose. Examples thereof include ammonium chloride, ammonium sulfate, ammonium nitrate, and γ-alumina / silica. These may be used individually by 1 type and may use 2 or more types together. Among these, ammonium chloride is particularly preferable because it has a high effect of reducing the hydrogen ion concentration and can be obtained at low cost.
The acidic solid membrane reacts with the electrolytic solution in the air battery, and the hydrogen ion concentration of the electrolytic solution decreases. When the hydrogen ion concentration of the electrolytic solution is high, the complex formation reaction between the hydroxide ion, the chelate substance, and the metal ion in the chelate film is hindered. The hydrogen ion concentration of the electrolytic solution is preferably about pH = 9.
