Summary of the invention
In order to overcome the deficiencies in the prior art, the object of the present invention is to provide a kind of solution barrier film absorbent, solving the lithium ion battery separator of diaphragm closed pore security performance simultaneously.
Another object of the present invention is to the preparation method that a kind of lithium ion battery separator is provided.
For solving the problem, the technical solution adopted in the present invention is as follows:
A kind of lithium ion battery separator, it comprises sandwich diaphragm, be made up of High molecular weight polyethylene layer/high-density polyethylene layer/High molecular weight polyethylene layer, described High molecular weight polyethylene layer is 15 ~ 80 by the degree of branching, molecular weight is the High molecular weight polyethylene composition of 50 ~ 3,000,000, described high-density polyethylene layer is 2 ~ 20 by the degree of branching, and molecular weight is the high density polyethylene (HDPE) composition of 20 ~ 500,000.
The degree of branching is the branched carbon atoms number that 1000 carbon atoms contain.The upper and lower two-layer employing High molecular weight polyethylene of this lithium ion battery separator, the degree of branching is 15 ~ 80, and molecular weight is 50 ~ 3,000,000, provides good intensity and heat-shrinkable, improves lyophily performance.Preferably, the degree of branching of described High molecular weight polyethylene layer is 40 ~ 60.Intermediate layer adopts high density polyethylene (HDPE), and the degree of branching is 2 ~ 20, and molecular weight is 20 ~ 500,000, can provide less aperture, and improve ion by performance, closed pore temperature is low, and closed pore speed is fast.
The High molecular weight polyethylene of layer structure must have the degree of branching of >15, and the high density polyethylene (HDPE) in intermediate layer must have the degree of branching of <20.Battery diaphragm of the present invention requires that polyolefine material has the specific degree of branching, and hinder large between the polyethylene molecule that the degree of branching is large, in Thermal inactive process, major part maintains original frame structure, and make the membrane pore size of preparation comparatively large, thermal contraction is less; And hinder less between the little polyethylene molecule of the degree of branching, when Thermal inactive occurs in extrudate cooling, polyethylene molecule spacing reduces, and aperture structure originally shrinks so form fine pore structure.
As further technical scheme of the present invention, the porosity of described High molecular weight polyethylene layer is greater than 45%, and the porosity of described high-density polyethylene layer is 30 ~ 45%.
As further technical scheme of the present invention, the average pore diameter of described High molecular weight polyethylene layer is 0.15 ~ 0.3 μm, and the average pore diameter of described high-density polyethylene layer is 0.02 ~ 0.15 μm.
Preferably, the average pore diameter of described High molecular weight polyethylene layer is 0.2 ~ 0.25 μm, and the average pore diameter of described high-density polyethylene layer is 0.04 ~ 0.08 μm.
Battery diaphragm intermediate layer of the present invention has less aperture, can close aperture in time, close current when high-temperature test, improves the security performance of battery.In addition, because aperture is less, there is good capillary imbibition ability, the wetting velocity of barrier film can be improved.Battery diaphragm skin of the present invention has larger aperture and less thermal contraction, be conducive to the contact angle reducing electrolyte, improve the wetting property of barrier film, there is less thermal contraction simultaneously, prevent barrier film thermal histories septation from shrinking and cause battery pole piece directly to contact.
If the aperture of battery diaphragm is more than 0.3 μm, easily makes the metal particle of positive and negative pole material through barrier film, do not have the buffer action of barrier film.If aperture is less than 0.02 μm, easily make the wetting property of barrier film be deteriorated, the larger ion transmission performance affecting battery, macro manifestations is that the power-performance of battery is poor.The present invention finds through research, if aperture is more than 0.3 μm, battery is very easy to smolder on fire when high temperature 130 DEG C of thermal shocks, thus affects the security performance of battery diaphragm.The thermal shock safety feature test of 130 DEG C is the hard requirement of battery industry, and this phenomenon occurs mainly because aperture is excessive, polyethylene micropore closes performance failure, and battery continues intensification to be caused molten the breaking of barrier film and is short-circuited.
As further technical scheme of the present invention, the gross thickness of described battery diaphragm is 12 ~ 40 μm, and in order to keep good closed pore performance, the thickness of described high-density polyethylene layer is more than or equal to 3 μm and is less than or equal to 2/3 of gross thickness.The thickness of battery diaphragm is excessive, and the battery plus-negative plate material of unit volume will be caused to reduce, and reduces the capacity of battery.
A preparation method for lithium ion battery separator, comprises the following steps:
(1) High molecular weight polyethylene layer is prepared: the melting mixing in double screw extruder by High molecular weight polyethylene and paraffin oil, obtains polymer solution A;
(2) high-density polyethylene layer is prepared: the melting mixing in double screw extruder by high density polyethylene (HDPE) and paraffin oil, obtains polymer solution B;
(3) co-extrusion: polymer solution A and polymer solution B is input in the T-shaped die head in three chambeies by the mode of ABA continuously, extrudes from same die orifice after merging together, obtain the melt of ABA three-decker;
(4) masking: by obtained three-decker melt feeding biaxial orientation stretching machine, under 100 ~ 140 DEG C of conditions, carries out bi-directional synchronization stretching or step drawing becomes film;
(5) extract: use extractant extraction to remove the paraffin oil of film surface;
(6) shape: under 100 ~ 140 DEG C of conditions, carry out thermal finalization, obtain lithium ion battery separator.
As further technical scheme of the present invention, the degree of branching of described High molecular weight polyethylene is 15 ~ 80, and molecular weight is 50 ~ 3,000,000; The degree of branching of described high density polyethylene (HDPE) is 2 ~ 20, and molecular weight is 20 ~ 500,000.

Compared to existing technology, beneficial effect of the present invention is:
1) the outer field aperture of the present invention is larger, contribute to the lyophily performance improving barrier film and electrolyte when material is constant like this, and the fine pore of internal layer can help electrolyte to form capillarity attraction in barrier film, aperture is less, capillarity attraction is larger, contributes to electrolyte parent's profit barrier film fast like this.
2) because outer field aperture is comparatively large, fiber is also comparatively thick, and percent thermal shrinkage is less, and the aperture of internal layer is little, and in battery thermal shock process, easy aperture closes, and close current prevents the short circuit of battery from exploding, and improves security performance.
3) barrier film of the present invention can solve barrier film absorbent, can solve cell safety unfailing performance again, and present invention process is simple, is easy to industrialization.
4) the present invention is compared with existing barrier film production technology, and process conditions are similar, but the physicochemical properties such as the percent thermal shrinkage of product, closed pore temperature are better.
