Description

Polypropylene microporous isolation membrane and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of battery isolation membrane preparation, and particularly relates to a polypropylene microporous isolation membrane and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
The polyolefin microporous membrane is widely applied to the lithium ion battery as an isolating membrane, and the isolating membrane is a core component of the lithium ion battery and approximately accounts for 18-30% of the cost of the whole lithium battery. The performance of the lithium battery plays a crucial role in the overall performance of the lithium battery, and is one of the key technologies for restricting the development of the lithium battery. With the development of electronic products and the expansion of application fields, people have higher and higher requirements on the performance of lithium batteries. In order to meet the development requirements of lithium batteries, microporous separators should have high mechanical strength, excellent thermal stability, good micropore distribution, low manufacturing cost, and the like.
At present, the lithium ion battery isolating membrane is mainly made of crystalline polyolefin materials such as Polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP) and the like, but the two polyolefin membranes have defects and shortcomings. The size stability of the separator at high temperature is also very important, if the shape of the separator cannot be maintained at high temperature, the positive electrode and the negative electrode are in direct contact, the battery is in a dangerous state due to short circuit, and polypropylene and polyethylene have higher potential safety hazards because the polypropylene and polyethylene have lower melting points and the size stability of the microporous membrane cannot be maintained at high temperature.

Effects of the embodiment
Example 1 under the premise of ensuring the same other parameters, in the process of preparing the blend, polypropylene graft materials (2%, 5%, 8%, 10%) with different contents of active groups are respectively added, and after the blend is shaped in hot water at 50 ℃ for 5 hours, a polypropylene microporous isolation membrane 1 (polypropylene graft material 2% with active groups), a polypropylene microporous isolation membrane 2 (polypropylene graft material 5% with active groups), a polypropylene microporous isolation membrane 3 (polypropylene graft material 8% with active groups) and a polypropylene microporous isolation membrane 4 (polypropylene graft material 10% with active groups) are obtained, and the properties of the membrane such as MD/TD breaking strength, MD/TD breaking elongation, puncture strength, thermal shrinkage, air permeability and ionic conductivity are respectively detected, and the polypropylene microporous isolation membrane 2 (containing no polypropylene graft material with active groups and nano-silica) obtained by shaping in hot water at 50 ℃ for 5 hours in the comparative example is used as a counter pair And (6) irradiating. The specific method comprises the following steps:
and (3) testing mechanical properties: cutting the sample into sample strips with the width of 15mm and the length of 50mm in the MD direction, and stretching the sample strips on a universal test stretcher at the speed of 50mm/min until the sample strips are broken; cutting the TD direction microporous film into sample strips with the width of 15mm and the length of 30mm, and stretching the sample strips on a universal test stretcher at the speed of 50mm/min until the sample strips are broken; three replicates were averaged for each variable.
Puncture strength: the test was also carried out on a stretcher, using a compression mode, setting the compression speed at
50mm/min, the needle used for puncturing is a customized needle with the diameter of 1cm, and the needle is pressed down at a constant speed until the recording force of the rupture of the microporous membrane is maximum.
Heat shrinkage ratio: is an important index for representing the thermal stability of the battery diaphragm, the diaphragm is cut into a square of 5cm multiplied by 5cm, the size change of the diaphragm before and after heating is measured after heat treatment for 1h at 90 ℃, and the area of the diaphragm before the test is 25cm2The area of the diaphragm after the test is S, and the calculation formula of the thermal shrinkage rate is as follows:
Figure BDA0002168058200000081
air permeability value: the time required for the air to fall when the air passes through 100ml using the air permeability test instrument is the air permeability value in s.
Ionic conductivity: the test was carried out in a glove box filled with argon, with the diaphragm sandwiched between two steel sheets, assembled into a steel sheet system. The ionic conductivity of the cells was tested using an electrochemical workstation (IM6, Zzhner, Germany) with a disturbance voltage amplitude of 5mV and a frequency of 100mHz-100 KHz. The ionic conductivity is calculated as follows:
Figure BDA0002168058200000082
where δ represents the ionic conductivity, L represents the thickness of the diaphragm, R represents the diaphragm resistance, and S represents the area of the steel sheet (the area of the steel sheet is used because the area of the diaphragm is larger than the area of the steel sheet).
In addition, the initial cast films and the heat-treated films obtained in example 1 and comparative example were examined for their spring rates: and (3) adopting a universal tensile testing machine, wherein the gauge length of a clamp is 50mm, stretching to 100mm, staying for 180s, returning to 50mm, and circularly stretching for 2 times. The rebound resilience is calculated as follows:
Figure BDA0002168058200000083
wherein E represents the rebound resilience, L represents 100mm, L0Indicating a gauge length of 50mm and L' indicating the length after recovery from the second cycle of stretch recovery.
The results are shown in tables 1 and 2.
It can be seen from tables 1 and 2 that, under the condition that the performance of the original separator is not affected, the elongation at break, the breaking strength, the puncture strength and the ionic conductivity of the separator after the silane coupling agent added with the nano-silica is crosslinked are improved, and the thermal shrinkage problem of the microporous membrane is also improved, which shows that the mechanical strength of the separator is improved after the nano-silica and the silane active substance are added for crosslinking, and the problem of poor mechanical performance in the battery is improved.

TABLE 3 Effect of different setting times on film Properties
Figure BDA0002168058200000101
Fig. 3 is SEM images of the polypropylene microporous separator 2 prepared in the comparative example (set 5h) and the polypropylene microporous separator prepared in example 2 at different soaking hot water crosslinking times. It can be seen from the figure that the holes of the pure polypropylene microporous membrane are long and narrow micropores, while the micropores of the microporous membrane after the silane coupling agent is added gradually become round holes, and the bridge of the micropores formed before gradually becomes thick, which may be one of the reasons for improving the mechanical properties of the microporous membrane, and the reason for greatly improving the TD strength and puncture strength of the test because the mechanical strength in the TD direction is improved when the micropores are round.
The above embodiments are preferred embodiments of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and any other changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, and simplifications which do not depart from the spirit and principle of the present invention should be construed as equivalents thereof, and all such changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, and simplifications are intended to be included in the scope of the present invention.
