Under the acidic environment, stirring at a medium speed of 600r/min, and adding sulfuric acid for catalysis can improve the film forming efficiency of the prepolymer and the efficiency of wrapping perfluorohexanone.
Preferably, in step S2), the mass concentration of the perfluorohexanone in the aqueous solution is 0.8-1g/ml, the mass concentration of the sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate is 0.4-0.5 wt%, and the mass concentration of the water-soluble urea-formaldehyde resin prepolymer is 2-2.5 g/ml.
The sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate is a surfactant, so that the perfluorohexanone in the aqueous solution can be dispersed more uniformly, the concentration of the perfluorohexanone wrapped by each microcapsule formed by the urea resin film is close to each other, relatively consistent temperature resistance is further formed, and the perfluorohexanone released after the microcapsules are broken has the same cooling effect.
Preferably, in the step S3), the mass concentration of the supplemented water-soluble urea-formaldehyde resin prepolymer is 1-1.5 g/ml.
In the repeated wrapping and film forming process of the step S3), the supplemented water-soluble urea-formaldehyde resin prepolymer is about half of the total amount of the water-soluble urea-formaldehyde resin prepolymer which is added for the first time, so that the urea-formaldehyde resin prepolymer is maintained at a high concentration.
In the repeated coating and film forming process, a second film layer and a third film layer are formed, and a heat-absorbing phase-change material perfluorohexanone is coated between the second film layer and the third film layer, so that the cooling performance of the microcapsule body is further improved.
Preferably, in step S3), the drying temperature is 60 ℃ and the drying time is 12 h.
The microcapsule body is cleaned by acetone, so that the dried microcapsule body does not contain acidic substances or other impurities, and the problem that the performance of the lithium battery is damaged due to chemical reaction with other substances in electrolyte when the microcapsule body is used for the lithium battery is avoided.
Drying at 60 deg.C for 12 hr can completely remove water on microcapsule surface, such as deformation of microcapsule due to temperature higher than 65 deg.C, and incomplete removal of water due to low drying efficiency.
Preferably, in step S4), the mass of the microcapsule body added is LiPF615-40% of the mass of the commercial electrolyte/EC + DMC.
When the content of the added microcapsule body is less than 15 wt%, the total amount of the heat-absorbing material perfluorohexanone released by the microcapsule body is relatively small, the cooling effect is insufficient, and the thermal runaway temperature of the lithium battery can still continue to rise; when the added amount of the microcapsule body exceeds 40 wt%, the proportion of the microcapsule body is too high, which may affect the fluidity and working performance of the electrolyte.
