传统粘结剂,如PVDF往往需要较高的含量(2%以上)才能满足极片粘结力的需求,这限制了极片中活性物质负载量的提升,不利于电池能量密度的提升。而且,在电池加工热压整形处理时,高的粘结剂用量容易使得最内圈阴极拐角处的膜层因抗张力不足被绷断,导致极片发生透光现象,从而引发极片的脆性(或脆断)问题,降低电池的安全性和循环性能。再者,传统粘结剂与新一代正极活性物质相容性差,制备的浆料分散性和稳定性较差,极片中的正极活性物质分布不均匀,限制了电池性能的提高。Traditional binders, such as PVDF, often require a high content (more than 2%) to meet the bonding strength requirements of the pole pieces, which limits the increase in active material loading in the pole pieces and is not conducive to the improvement of battery energy density. Moreover, during battery processing and hot-pressing shaping, a high amount of binder can easily cause the film layer at the corner of the innermost cathode to be broken due to insufficient tensile strength, resulting in light transmission of the pole piece, thereby causing the brittleness of the pole piece. (or brittle fracture) problem, reducing the safety and cycle performance of the battery. Furthermore, the traditional binder has poor compatibility with the new generation of cathode active materials, the prepared slurry has poor dispersion and stability, and the cathode active materials in the pole piece are unevenly distributed, which limits the improvement of battery performance.

在一些实施方式中,所述分散剂用于电池正极浆料,提高正极浆料的分散性。在一些实施方式中,所述分散剂还可以用于电池负极浆料,提高负极浆料的分散性。In some embodiments, the dispersant is used in battery cathode slurry to improve the dispersibility of the cathode slurry. In some embodiments, the dispersant can also be used in battery negative electrode slurry to improve the dispersibility of the negative electrode slurry.
不受任何理论的约束,第一聚合物的重均分子量为0.5万~15万时,分子间作用力比较小,粘附力和浸润性能良好,可以很好地粘附正极浆料中的正极活性物质,防止/减少正极活性物质之间聚集;第一聚合物在正极浆料的溶剂(或分散介质)中,通过静电排斥或空间位阻作用,分散或悬浮于溶剂中,进而使得正极浆料的分散性显著提高,在一定时间内放置不沉降,改善了正极浆料的稳定性,有助于提高浆料的固含量和极片的涂布速率;正极活性物质质在极片中均匀分布有利于提高极片的电子传导效率和降低电池极片膜层电阻,提高电池循环性能。Without being bound by any theory, when the weight average molecular weight of the first polymer is 0.5 million to 150.000, the intermolecular force is relatively small, the adhesion and wetting properties are good, and the positive electrode in the positive electrode slurry can be well adhered. Active materials prevent/reduce aggregation between positive electrode active materials; the first polymer is dispersed or suspended in the solvent (or dispersion medium) of the positive electrode slurry through electrostatic repulsion or steric hindrance, thereby making the positive electrode slurry The dispersion of the material is significantly improved, and it does not settle after being placed for a certain period of time, which improves the stability of the positive electrode slurry and helps to increase the solid content of the slurry and the coating rate of the pole piece; the positive active material is evenly distributed in the pole piece The distribution is conducive to improving the electron conduction efficiency of the pole piece, reducing the film resistance of the battery pole piece, and improving the battery cycle performance.
本申请中,所述粘结剂包括重均分子量为70万~110万的第二聚合物和重均分子量为130万~300万的第三聚合物。所述第三聚合物具有较高的粘度,使用第三聚合物作为粘结剂时,添加少量即可使极片具有良好的粘结力。然而,由于第三聚合物的结晶性较高,单独作为粘结剂使用时,制备的极片在电池热压处理时外侧膜层由于粘结剂的塑性变形应力不足而极易产生裂纹断裂。所述裂纹断裂是指在极片加工过程中,浆料中固体物质经处理成为膜层附着在集流上,极片(或裸电芯)在热压整形时最内1~2圈阴极拐角处容易产生裂纹,导致极片发生透光现象。极片的裂纹断裂导致极片在掉粉的同时裸露出新鲜的铝箔。随着循环的进行,电解液会分解产生氢氟酸,氢氟酸对铝箔起腐蚀作用,会降低电池的电化学表现和循环 性能。In this application, the binder includes a second polymer with a weight average molecular weight of 700,000 to 1.1 million and a third polymer with a weight average molecular weight of 1.3 million to 3 million. The third polymer has a high viscosity. When using the third polymer as a binder, a small amount of the third polymer can be added to make the pole piece have good bonding force. However, due to the high crystallinity of the third polymer, when used alone as a binder, the outer film layer of the prepared pole piece is easily cracked due to insufficient plastic deformation stress of the binder during the hot pressing process of the battery. The crack fracture refers to the fact that during the processing of the pole piece, the solid matter in the slurry is processed into a film layer that adheres to the current collector, and the pole piece (or bare cell) is formed by the innermost 1 to 2 turns of the cathode corner during hot pressing and shaping. Cracks are prone to occur, causing light transmission in the pole piece. The cracks and fractures of the pole piece cause the pole piece to lose powder and expose fresh aluminum foil. As the cycle proceeds, the electrolyte will decompose to produce hydrofluoric acid. Hydrofluoric acid will corrode the aluminum foil and reduce the electrochemical performance and cycle of the battery. performance.
在本文中,术语“集流体”是指在二次电池的放电或充电期间能够传导电流至电极的任何导电基底。As used herein, the term "current collector" refers to any conductive substrate capable of conducting current to an electrode during discharge or charging of a secondary battery.
术语“膜层”是指正极或负极浆料涂布干燥后形成的涂层。The term "film layer" refers to the coating formed after the positive electrode or negative electrode slurry is coated and dried.
当第三聚合物的重均分子量大于300万时,虽然粘结剂的粘度提高会进一步降低粘结剂的添加量,但同时也加剧了正极活性物质分散不均匀的问题,影响浆料的分散性和稳定性,并最终导致极片膜层电阻增高和电池循环性能降低。当第三聚合物的重均分子量低于130万时,粘结剂的粘度降低,虽然改善了浆料的分散性,但同时降低了极片的粘结力。为了提高极片的粘结力需要增加第三聚合物和/或第二聚合物的用量,粘结剂用量的提高会降低极片中正极活性物质负载量,进而影响电池能量密度。When the weight average molecular weight of the third polymer is greater than 3 million, although the increase in the viscosity of the binder will further reduce the amount of binder added, it will also aggravate the problem of uneven dispersion of the positive active material and affect the dispersion of the slurry. properties and stability, and ultimately lead to an increase in the resistance of the pole piece film and a decrease in battery cycle performance. When the weight average molecular weight of the third polymer is lower than 1.3 million, the viscosity of the binder decreases. Although the dispersion of the slurry is improved, the adhesive force of the pole piece is also reduced. In order to improve the binding force of the electrode piece, it is necessary to increase the amount of the third polymer and/or the second polymer. Increasing the amount of binder will reduce the loading of the positive active material in the electrode piece, thereby affecting the energy density of the battery.
不受任何理论的约束,本申请中,第二聚合物可以***第三聚合物分子有规则的链段中,使第三聚合物分子结构的有序性降低而降低粘结剂的结晶度,从而提高膜层的塑性变形应力并足以在极片热压处理时不产生裂纹断裂,改善了极片的柔性,有利于提高极片的加工性和降低由极片裂纹引发的断裂(或脆断)带来的电池安全隐患。Without being bound by any theory, in this application, the second polymer can be inserted into the regular chain segments of the third polymer molecule to reduce the orderliness of the molecular structure of the third polymer and reduce the crystallinity of the binder. This increases the plastic deformation stress of the film layer enough to prevent cracks and fractures during the hot pressing treatment of the pole piece, improves the flexibility of the pole piece, is conducive to improving the processability of the pole piece and reducing fracture (or brittle fracture) caused by cracks in the pole piece. ) brings potential battery safety hazards.
当第二聚合物的重均分子量大于110万时,同样会由于粘结剂粘度的提高导致极片膜层电阻增高和电池循环性能降低。另外,由于第二聚合物分子链长的增加,与第三聚合物分子链长的差异减小,第三聚合物分子的空间结构不足以容纳第二聚合物分子的长链,二者混合后无法降低第三聚合物分子空间结构的有序性,也无法降低粘结剂的结晶性。当第二聚合物的重均分子量小于70万时,由于粘结剂的粘度降低,为使极片具有良好的粘结力,需要提高第二聚合物和/或第三聚合物的用量,不利于提高极片中正极活性物质负载量;另外,由于第二聚合物分子链长和第三聚合物分子链长的差异过大,第二聚合物的分子链无法与第三聚合物的分子链形成有效的物理缠绕/交联,对第三聚合物的结晶性影响变小,无法提高膜层的塑性应变力和极片的柔性。 When the weight average molecular weight of the second polymer is greater than 1.1 million, the resistance of the electrode sheet film layer will also increase and the battery cycle performance will decrease due to the increase in binder viscosity. In addition, due to the increase in the chain length of the second polymer molecule, the difference in chain length between the second polymer molecule and the third polymer molecule is reduced. The spatial structure of the third polymer molecule is not sufficient to accommodate the long chain of the second polymer molecule. After the two are mixed, The orderliness of the spatial structure of the third polymer molecule cannot be reduced, nor can the crystallinity of the binder be reduced. When the weight average molecular weight of the second polymer is less than 700,000, due to the reduced viscosity of the binder, in order to ensure that the pole piece has good adhesive force, the amount of the second polymer and/or the third polymer needs to be increased. It is beneficial to increase the loading capacity of the positive electrode active material in the pole piece; in addition, because the difference in molecular chain length of the second polymer and the third polymer is too large, the molecular chain of the second polymer cannot match the molecular chain of the third polymer. Effective physical entanglement/cross-linking is formed, which has a smaller impact on the crystallinity of the third polymer and cannot improve the plastic strain stress of the film layer and the flexibility of the pole piece.
本申请中,通过特定重均分子量的第二聚合物和第三聚合物的联用,特别是重均分子量为70万~110万的第二聚合物和重均分子量为130万~300万的第三聚合物的联用,可以降低现有技术中粘结剂的用量,在粘结剂为低添加量时即可使极片具有良好的粘结力,有助于提高极片中正极活性物质的负载量和电池能量密度。同时,第二聚合物和第三聚合物的联用还改善了粘结剂的结晶性,提高了极片的柔性。In this application, through the combined use of a second polymer and a third polymer with a specific weight average molecular weight, especially a second polymer with a weight average molecular weight of 700,000 to 1.1 million and a second polymer with a weight average molecular weight of 1.3 million to 3 million. The combined use of the third polymer can reduce the amount of binder used in the existing technology. When the binder is added at a low amount, the electrode piece can have good bonding force, which helps to improve the positive electrode activity in the electrode piece.

在一些实施方式中,所述分散剂的质量含量为0.1%~1%,0.2%~1%,0.3%~1%,0.4%~1%,0.6%~1%,0.05%~0.8%,0.05%~0.6%,或者0.1%~0.6%,基于所述正极浆料的固体物质的总质量计。In some embodiments, the mass content of the dispersant is 0.1% to 1%, 0.2% to 1%, 0.3% to 1%, 0.4% to 1%, 0.6% to 1%, 0.05% to 0.8%, 0.05% to 0.6%, or 0.1% to 0.6%, based on the total mass of solid matter of the positive electrode slurry.
当所述分散剂的质量含量低于0.05%时,由于分散剂的含量过低,无法充分包覆或附着于正极浆料中的正极活性物质,不利于正极活性物质的分散,正极浆料粉体容易产生团聚、堵塞滤网等现象,影响正极浆料的稳定性和极片的加工性,导致膜层电阻增高。当所述分散剂的的质量含量高于1%时,由于分散剂的含量过高,降低了粘结剂的粘结性能,导电剂和正极活性物质的结合力降低,即,极片的粘结力小,容易在加工过程中出现脱模现象或者电池在长期循环使用过程中正极活性物质扩散到负极,造成极大的安全隐患。分散剂的质量含量在合适范围内可以改善正极浆料的分散性,并对粘结剂的粘接性能无影响或影响极小。When the mass content of the dispersant is less than 0.05%, because the content of the dispersant is too low, it cannot fully coat or adhere to the cathode active material in the cathode slurry, which is not conducive to the dispersion of the cathode active material and the cathode slurry powder The body is prone to agglomeration, clogging of filters, etc., which affects the stability of the positive electrode slurry and the processability of the pole piece, resulting in an increase in film resistance. When the mass content of the dispersant is higher than 1%, because the content of the dispersant is too high, the bonding performance of the binder is reduced, and the binding force between the conductive agent and the positive electrode active material is reduced, that is, the adhesion of the pole piece is reduced. The junction force is small, and it is easy to demoulding during processing or the positive active material diffuses into the negative electrode during long-term recycling of the battery, causing great safety risks.

The dispersion and the quality of the pole piece increase the film layer resistance of the pole piece and reduce the battery cycle performance. When the mass content of the binder is less than 0.6%, the bonding performance of the binder decreases, resulting in insufficient bonding force of the electrode piece. Demolding is prone to occur during processing or the positive active material of the battery during long-term recycling. Diffusion to the negative electrode, causing great safety hazards. The mass content of the binder within an appropriate range can ensure that the electrode piece has good adhesion, avoid direct contact between the positive active material and the electrolyte, reduce the occurrence of side reactions, and reduce the safety hazards of secondary batteries; at the same time, the adhesive The addition of the binder is relatively low, which helps to reduce the film resistance of the electrode sheet, increase the loading capacity of the positive active material and increase the energy density of the battery.

当所述粘结剂的结晶度低于25%时,极片膜层中固体物质之间的结合力或膜层的粘结力不足,容易在电池加工过程中出现脱模现象,或者电池在长期循环使用过程中正极活性物质扩散到负极,造成极大的安全隐患。当粘结剂的结晶度高于44%时,膜层在裸电芯热压处理时的塑性应变力不足,容易产生裂纹断裂。所述粘结剂的结晶度在合适的范围内,可以使极片柔性提高的同时兼具适宜的硬度,有利于二次电池加工和降低二次电池的安全隐患。 When the crystallinity of the binder is lower than 25%, the bonding force between the solid substances in the pole piece film layer or the bonding force of the film layer is insufficient, and demolding may easily occur during battery processing, or the battery may During long-term recycling, the positive active material diffuses into the negative electrode, causing great safety hazards. When the crystallinity of the binder is higher than 44%, the plastic strain stress of the film layer during the hot pressing treatment of the bare battery core is insufficient, and cracks and fractures are prone to occur.

Then the battery capacity retention rate after each cycle is:
Pn=Cn/C0*100%
该测试过程中,第一次循环对应n=1、第二次循环对应n=2、……第100次循环对应n=100。表3中实施例14对应的电池容量保持率数据是在上述测试条件下循环500次之后测得的数据,即P500的值。对比例4以及其他实施例的测试过程同上;During this test, the first cycle corresponds to n=1, the second cycle corresponds to n=2, and the 100th cycle corresponds to n=100.

Compared with Comparative Example 2, which only used a second polymer with a weight average molecular weight of 700,000 as a binder, The melting enthalpy and crystallinity of Examples 3 to 8 and Examples 10 to 12 decreased, indicating that the flexibility of the binder was improved after mixing the second polymer and the third polymer.
实施例1~实施例9中使用重均分子量为70万的第二聚合物和 重均分子量为250万的第三聚合物在质量比为1:9~9:1的范围内制备粘结剂,与仅使用重均分子量为250万的第三聚合物做粘结剂的对比例1相比,第二聚合物的添加降低了粘结剂的熔融焓和结晶度,提高了粘结剂的柔韧性。In Examples 1 to 9, a second polymer with a weight average molecular weight of 700,000 and The third polymer with a weight average molecular weight of 2.5 million is used to prepare a binder in a mass ratio of 1:9 to 9:1, as opposed to using only a third polymer with a weight average molecular weight of 2.5 million as the binder.
