Description

Preparation process of lithium ion battery anode slurry
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium ion batteries, and particularly relates to a preparation process of lithium ion battery anode slurry.
Background
The lithium ion battery has the advantages of high energy density, long cycle life, high reliability, good processability, environmental friendliness and the like, and is widely applied to various electronic devices and new energy automobiles at present.
A lithium ion battery generally includes a positive plate, a negative plate, a separator spaced between the positive and negative plates, an electrolyte, and a casing. The positive pole piece comprises a positive pole current collector and a positive pole dressing coating coated on the positive pole current collector, and the negative pole piece comprises a negative pole current collector and a negative pole dressing coating coated on the negative pole current collector. When the electrode plate is prepared, firstly, an active substance (such as lithium iron phosphate, ternary, graphite and the like), a conductive agent (such as acetylene black, a carbon nano tube, carbon fiber, graphene and the like), an adhesive (such as polyvinylidene fluoride, sodium carboxymethylcellulose, styrene butadiene rubber emulsion and the like) and a solvent (such as N-methyl pyrrolidone, water and the like) are prepared into electrode slurry, then the electrode slurry is coated on the surface of a current collector according to the process requirements, and then drying treatment is carried out to obtain the coating electrode plate required by the battery.
Among them, the stability and dispersion performance of the electrode slurry have a crucial influence on the performance of the lithium ion battery. The more evenly the components in the electrode slurry are dispersed, the higher the stability is, and the better the processing performance of the pole piece is, such as stable coating surface density, good flexibility of the pole piece after rolling and the like. Meanwhile, the electrode prepared from the uniform, stable and efficiently dispersed slurry has the advantages of uniform impedance distribution at all positions, lower resistivity, high peel strength and good electrolyte infiltration effect, the polarization effect is greatly eliminated during charging and discharging, the larger the active substance can be exerted, the larger the average gram capacity and the first effect of the active substance can be improved, and therefore the comprehensive performance of the whole battery is improved.
Among various conductive agents, carbon black conductive agent ECP-600JD and single-walled carbon nanotube belong to the new conductive agents with the performance attention of the industry. Because the single-walled carbon nanotube is in a linear tubular shape and has an ultra-large length-diameter ratio, the ECP-600JD has a rich spherical branched chain structure and a large specific surface area, and the primary particle of the ECP-600JD is in a nano-spherical structure. When the two novel conductive agents are uniformly dispersed, the tubes and the points can be in multi-point winding contact through bridging, a four-way eight-reach conductive network is formed, the electrochemical reaction active sites are enriched, and the conductive effect of the pole piece is improved. The introduction of the conductive agent is particularly suitable for a high-load and high-compaction thick electrode technology, the dosage of the conductive agent can be reduced, the proportion of active substances is improved, a high-energy density battery core is developed, the conductive agent has the characteristics of pore-forming, gap filling and fluid infusion, the heating temperature rise of the thick electrode can be reduced, the long-life cycle capacity of the battery is improved, and the comprehensive electrochemical performance of the battery is improved.
In practical application, the conventional preparation method of the anode slurry is to dry and uniformly mix the conductive agent and the main material, then add the mixture into the prepared adhesive glue solution to carry out high-rotation-speed double-planet type dispersion, and stir and disperse the mixture for a certain time to obtain the final anode slurry. The dry powder conductive agent, especially the novel conductive agent, generally has a very large specific surface area and a complex and rich structure, so that the dry powder conductive agent is easy to agglomerate between different tubes and points. The uniformly dispersed anode slurry is difficult to obtain by the traditional anode slurry stirring mode, even if the anode slurry is further dispersed by methods such as ball milling and the like, the efficiency is low, the process is complex, and the realization of industrial production is difficult.
