Description

Polyolefin diaphragm and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of lithium battery diaphragm materials, and particularly relates to a polyolefin diaphragm and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Polyolefin microporous membranes are used for microfiltration membranes, battery separators, capacitor separators, fuel cell materials, and the like. Among these applications, when used as a battery separator, particularly a lithium ion battery separator, the polyolefin microporous membrane is required to have excellent ion permeability, excellent mechanical strength, and the like.
In order to ensure the safety of batteries, separators for high-capacity batteries in recent years are required to have "low closed-cell temperature characteristics", "high rupture temperature characteristics", and "low heat shrinkability".
The "low closed cell temperature characteristic" is a function of ensuring the safety of the battery by melting the separator to form a film covering the electrode and blocking the current when the inside of the battery is overheated due to an overcharge state or the like. It is known that in the case of a polyethylene microporous membrane, the closed cell temperature, i.e., the temperature at which the melt characteristics are exhibited, is about 140 ℃. However, in order to prevent runaway reaction and the like in the battery as early as possible, it is preferable that the melting temperature is lower.
The "high rupture temperature characteristic" means a property of the separator that the separator does not crack even when heated to a temperature higher than the melting temperature. Further, "low heat shrinkability" means a property that the heat shrinkability is small even when heated to a temperature equal to or higher than the melting temperature. Both of these are necessary in order to maintain the shape even after melting and to maintain the insulation between the electrodes.
In order to ensure the safety of the battery at 150 ℃, the battery separator is required to have a performance that meets the battery safety evaluation Standard specified in the us Standard UL1642 "Standard for Lithium B atteries". The evaluation was performed by keeping the separator in an oven at 150 ℃ for 10 minutes. To meet this standard, it is desirable that the membrane melt at 130 ℃ - & 140 ℃ without porosity, and that no rupture of the membrane occurs and that thermal shrinkage is minimized to maintain the shape even when heated above 150 ℃.
In the prior art, polyethylene and polypropylene have been mixed in order to obtain a lower closing temperature and a higher rupture temperature. However, the melting points of polyethylene and polypropylene are different greatly, which causes crystallization of two phases, and the compatibility problem is prominent, thereby affecting the stable obtainment of low closed pore temperature characteristic, high film breaking temperature characteristic and thermal shrinkage.
