Description

Battery separator, preparation method thereof and lithium ion battery
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of lithium ion batteries, in particular to a battery separator, a preparation method thereof and a lithium ion battery formed by adopting the separator.
Background
The lithium ion battery has the characteristics of high energy density, long cycle life, no memory effect, environmental friendliness and the like, and is widely applied to products such as consumer electronics and electric tools as energy storage equipment. The battery separator, as an important component of a lithium ion battery, determines characteristics of the battery, such as an interface structure, internal resistance and the like, and directly influences performances of the battery, such as cycle, capacity, safety and the like.
The current lithium ion battery mainly adopts a porous polymer substrate as a separator (or called diaphragm) which is arranged between a positive pole piece and a negative pole piece, and in the use process of the lithium ion battery, along with the progress of charging and discharging, the interface between the separator and the pole pieces is easy to change, so that the gap between the separator and the pole pieces is increased, and the problems of battery capacity, service life reduction and the like are caused. The glue-coated partition board can effectively improve the gap problem between the partition board and the pole piece, and the partition board which is commonly used at the present stage is mainly a non-water system glue-coated partition board (generally, a binder coating (or called a glue coating) is coated on the surface of a polymer substrate), has good electrolyte wettability and pole piece bonding force, can improve the deformation problem of a battery cell, and can inhibit the increase of the gap between the partition board and the pole piece interface, thereby improving the safety and the cycle performance of the battery cell.
However, the nonaqueous gluing separator often produces a large electrostatic effect in the use process, which not only seriously affects the normal operation of the production process when the lithium ion battery is wound, but also easily adsorbs dust, which affects the battery quality, and the current solution to the electrostatic problem mainly includes: (1) static electricity is eliminated by neutralizing or introducing the charge to the ground by using an additional device (such as an ion fan, a static elimination bar and the like) in the winding process of the lithium ion battery, however, the static electricity on the gluing separator can be eliminated only partially or temporarily in such a way, and the separator still generates static electricity if friction occurs in the subsequent production process and cannot eliminate the static electricity from the source; (2) the antistatic agent is added into the glue coating layer, the antistatic agent is generally a surfactant with both polar and nonpolar groups, and polar hydrophilic groups of the antistatic agent can absorb a small amount of water on the surface of the separator to achieve the purpose of removing static electricity.
Therefore, how to avoid the generation of side effects such as static electricity and the like and ensure the comprehensive quality of the lithium ion battery on the basis of effectively solving the problem of the gap between the separator and the pole piece still remains a technical problem to be solved by the technical personnel in the field.
