Description

Separator for electricity storage device, and method for manufacturing electricity storage device
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a separator for an electric storage device, a method for manufacturing the separator for the electric storage device, and particularly relates to a separator for a lithium ion secondary battery, a method for manufacturing the separator, and the lithium ion secondary battery.
Background
As represented by power supplies for memory backup of various electronic devices, microelectronics have recently become remarkable. That is, with the battery being housed in an electronic device, integration of the battery and an electronic component, and the like, a power storage device having a small size, a light weight, and a high energy density is desired. In recent years, with the miniaturization and weight reduction of various small electronic devices such as camcorders, portable communication devices, and notebook computers, there has been an increasing demand for high-energy-density power storage devices as driving power sources for these devices, and the development of these devices has been actively carried out.
High energy density electric storage devices such as lithium ion secondary batteries, lithium ion capacitors, and electric double layer capacitors are provided with a pair of electrodes and a separator, impregnated with an electrolyte solution, and used in various industrial or consumer electric and electronic devices.
Conventionally, in an electric storage device such as a lithium ion secondary battery, a lithium ion capacitor, and an electric double layer capacitor using an electrochemical reaction, improvement of a separator has been required because of further increase in capacity, improvement in function, reduction in size, and reduction in weight. For example, in order to cope with the increase in capacity of an electric storage device, a separator having heat resistance, mechanical strength, and dimensional stability capable of withstanding self-heating during charge and discharge or abnormal heating during abnormal charge is required. In order to realize higher functionality of the electric storage device, particularly to improve rapid charge/discharge characteristics and high output characteristics, a separator that is made thin and has improved uniformity is urgently required.
In order to satisfy these requirements, for example, patent document 1 proposes a separator in which a through-hole is formed in a microporous membrane (stretched membrane) having high permeability, which is produced by stretching a polyolefin, by a needle or a laser beam, to further improve the permeability. However, when such a microporous resin film is used alone, the positive electrode and the negative electrode may be short-circuited due to the through-holes. In addition, the electrode has a property of easily shrinking in a melting temperature range equal to or higher than the shutdown temperature, and as a result, the electrodes easily come into direct contact with each other when the temperature reaches a high temperature. In addition, as a method for securing heat shrinkage resistance and mechanical strength in a thin film state, it is considered to reduce the porosity of the separator, but in this case, the ionic conductivity is reduced with an increase in internal resistance, and therefore, the demand for higher functionality cannot be satisfied.
Further, when the electrolyte penetrates into the separator, unevenness occurs, ion transfer is concentrated locally, and a metal such as copper, which is often used for a negative electrode current collector, is dissolved, and precipitation, dendrite growth, and short circuit may occur on the electrode, which is a problem, and deterioration of charge and discharge characteristics is suggested.
Therefore, the present applicant has disclosed a separator for an electric storage device excellent in charge-discharge characteristics, load characteristics, and low-temperature characteristics (patent document 2).

Hereinafter, the separator of the present invention will be described in detail.
The gurley number is a value measured in accordance with JIS P8117(ISO 5636/5). The change rate of the gurley value is calculated by the following equation.
Change rate (%) of gurley { (gurley value of porous membrane after supporting polyether copolymer and/or crosslinked product thereof-gurley value of porous membrane before supporting polyether copolymer and/or crosslinked product thereof)/gurley value of porous membrane before supporting polyether copolymer and/or crosslinked product thereof } × 100

In the separator in which the variation rate of the gurley value before and after coating of the polymer film is more than ± 10%, the porosity is greatly reduced or the porous film is collapsed, and it tends to be impossible to obtain good charge-discharge cycle performance after overdischarge.

By setting the range, sufficient mechanical strength as a separator can be obtained, and a power storage device provided with the separator of the present invention can obtain good electrical properties.

Wherein the repeating units (A) and (C) may be derived from two or more monomers, respectively.
In the polyether copolymer of the present invention, the molar ratio of the repeating unit (a), the repeating unit (B) and the repeating unit (C) is (a)2 to 40 mol%, (B)98 to 60 mol%, and (C)0 to 15 mol%, preferably (a)5 to 35 mol%, (B)95 to 60 mol%, and (C)0 to 10 mol%, more preferably (a)5 to 30 mol%, (B)95 to 65 mol%, and (C)0 to 7 mol%. If the repeating unit (B) exceeds 98 mol%, the glass transition temperature rises and the ethylene oxide chain crystallizes, causing a serious deterioration in the ionic conductivity. It is known that the ionic conductivity is generally improved by lowering the crystallinity of polyethylene oxide, but the polyether copolymer of the present invention is particularly excellent in this point.
The molecular weight of the polyether copolymer of the present invention is preferably 5 ten thousand or more, more preferably 30 ten thousand or more, and even more preferably 50 ten thousand or more, in order to obtain good processability, mechanical strength, and flexibility, and the lower limit of the weight average molecular weight is preferably 250 ten thousand or less, and preferably 150 ten thousand or less. A copolymer having a weight average molecular weight within this range is preferable in that the copolymer has a weight average molecular weight within this range, since the viscosity of a polymer solution in which the polyether copolymer is dissolved is appropriate and the workability is good, and when the lower limit of the weight average molecular weight is 30 ten thousand or more, the polyether copolymer or a crosslinked product thereof supported on the separator is not dissolved in the electrolyte solution and therefore is not easily peeled off from the porous film, and the copolymer has more good charge and discharge characteristics as an electricity storage device.
The polyether copolymer of the present invention may be any of block copolymers and random copolymers. The random copolymer is preferable because it has a higher effect of reducing the crystallinity of polyethylene oxide.
The polyether copolymer of the present invention can be synthesized as follows. Polyether copolymers are obtained by reacting monomers with stirring in the presence or absence of a solvent at a reaction temperature of 10 to 120 ℃ while stirring the monomers, using a coordinating anion initiator such as an organoaluminum-based catalyst system, an organolead-based catalyst system, or an organotin-phosphate condensate catalyst system, or an anionic initiator such as potassium alcoholate, diphenylmethyl potassium, or potassium hydroxide containing K + in the counter ion as a ring-opening polymerization catalyst. The coordinating anion initiator is preferable from the viewpoint of polymerization degree or properties of the obtained copolymer, and among them, the organotin-phosphate ester condensate catalyst system is particularly preferable because it is easy to handle.
In the separator of the present invention, the polyether copolymer to be carried may be a crosslinked product of the polyether copolymer. The strength of the separator is improved by supporting the crosslinked material, and the crosslinked material is preferable in this point.
In the separator of the present invention, the change rate of the gurley value is not particularly limited if the unit weight of the polyether copolymer and/or the crosslinked product thereof supported on the porous film is within a range of ± 10%, but preferably 1 to 6g/m from the viewpoint of improving the charge-discharge cycle performance after overdischarge2About 2 to 4g/m is more preferable2Left and right.
Method for manufacturing separator for electricity storage device
The method for producing the separator of the present invention is not particularly limited, and the following methods can be exemplified: dipping the separator in a solution obtained by dissolving a polyether copolymer in water or an organic solvent, and then drying it; in order to easily obtain the above-mentioned change rate of the gurley value, a method of coating a solution obtained by dissolving a polyether copolymer in water or an organic solvent on at least one surface of a separator and then drying the solution is preferable.
The organic solvent used in the present invention is not particularly limited, and is a substance capable of dissolving the polyether copolymer, and may be selected from aprotic organic solvents such as acetone, 2-butanone, toluene, xylene, THF, acetonitrile, methanol, isopropanol, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, and the like. These solvents may be used alone or in combination of two or more.
The concentration of the polyether copolymer in the solution is not particularly limited, but is preferably 5 to 40% by mass, and more preferably 8 to 30% by mass.
