A kind of sodium alginate base lithium battery diaphragm and preparation method thereof
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of sodium alginate base lithium battery diaphragm; The invention still further relates to the preparation method of above-mentioned sodium alginate base lithium battery diaphragm.
Background technology
Lithium battery forms primarily of positive and negative pole material, electrolyte and barrier film.Barrier film, between lithium ion battery plus-negative plate material, is one of important composition parts of lithium ion battery.The effect of barrier film is extremely important, plays isolated both positive and negative polarity, prevents internal short-circuit of battery, simultaneously stability electrolyte, completes lithium ion important function such as fast transport between both positive and negative polarity in charge discharge process.Along with the development of lithium battery, more and more higher to the requirement of membrane properties, the quality of its performance directly has influence on the charge-discharge performance of lithium battery, service life cycle, high temperature performance and security performance etc.The proportion that barrier film cost accounts for battery total cost is 20%-30%, and in dynamic lithium battery, proportion is higher.Therefore barrier film cost is reduced significant to reduction battery total cost.At present, commercial lithium battery diaphragm material mainly polyolefin micropore polymer film, comprises polyethylene film, polypropylene screen and polyethylene-polypropylene biaxial stretching film.Polyolefin micropore barrier diaphragm no doubt has oneself advantage: such as have good electrochemical stability performance and suitable mechanical strength.Certainly also there is shortcomings: (1) electrolyte wetting property bad electrolyte absorptivity is low, limits the raising of ionic conductivity, is unfavorable for the fast charging and discharging of lithium battery; (2) thermal dimensional stability can be poor, in temperature higher than 120
othere will be significant dimensional contraction during C, inside battery is short-circuited.These limit the further application of polyolefin micropore barrier diaphragm to a certain extent.In addition, polyolefinic raw material sources, in petroleum resources, belong to non-renewable resources, and cost compare is high, and nearest lithium electricity security incident intense stimulus high-temperature-resistant membrane market, therefore developing low-cost, lithium battery diaphragm that is renewable and high safety performance just seem and are even more important.
1881, first Englishize scholar carried out scientific research to the alginate extract in brown seaweed.Sodium alginate derives from the algae such as the brown alga in ocean, is a kind of reproducible resource.Sodium alginate is soluble in water, forms viscous liquid.Sodium alginate is a kind of natural polysaccharide carbohydrate, there is carboxyl, it is the high polyuronide that the aldehyde radical of mannuronic acid is formed with glycosidic bond, there is excellent biocompatibility, have no side effect, the feature such as controlled biological degradability, nonreactive substance, just because of the performance of these excellences, make sodium alginate can be used as food additives, thickener, stabilizer, weaving dyeing auxiliaries, styptic, also can be used as the fields such as Medical rack material.At present, sodium alginate have also been obtained in electrochemical field and applies widely, as the binding agent of electrode material of lithium battery, greatly can promote the stability of circulating battery, also can be used for the fields such as ultracapacitor.But as far as we know, so far not about the report of sodium alginate base lithium battery diaphragm.Given this, the present invention utilizes electrostatic spinning process successfully to prepare sodium alginate base composite non woven film, and is applied to the fields such as lithium battery diaphragm.
