Description

A kind of method of making secondary alkaline cccumulator electrode
The invention belongs to the secondary alkaline cccumulator electrode manufacture method.
As everyone knows, the manufacturing of traditional secondary alkaline cccumulator electrode all is, sintering bonding active material or is filled on the conductive substrates.Conductive substrates has nickel strap with holes, nickel plating steel band with holes, nickel screen, nickel fibre felt, carbon fiber felt and foaming nickel etc.
The manufacture method of secondary alkaline cccumulator electrode mainly contains following several at present:
1. active material is sintered on the conductive substrates.For example, AB 2The type alloy sintering is to collection
On the fluid (U.S.Pat.No.4,728,586 and U.S.Pat.No.4,716,088).
2. active material is bonded on the conductive substrates.
2.1 active material is bonded on the conductive substrates with plastic adhesive.For example, use the PTFE powder
Hydrogen storing alloy powder by thermo-compression bonding (Japanese Unexamined to collector
Patent Publication (KOKAI) No.64069/1986); Alloyed powder with
Plastic binder is mixed into cream, is coated onto and dries rolling forming (Japanese on the collector
Unexamined?Patent?Publication?No.16470/86?and?European
Patent?No.0284063A1)。
2.2 metal dust is made binding agent active material is bonded on the conductive substrates.For example use a large amount of
Metal nickel powder is molded into active material on the conductive substrates.
3. active material is filled on the foaming nickel substrate.For example the hydrogen storing alloy powder and the PVA aqueous solution
Be mixed into cream, be applied to three-dimensional conductive substrates (as foaming nickel) then and go up (Japanese Un-
examined?Patent?Publication(KOKAI)No.233967/1986?and
European?Patent?No.0271043A1)。
The electrode that sintering process is made, long working life, resistance is little.But this arts demand high temperature and complex device, and the electrode of making is very crisp.
Adhered method for making its electrode is simple, and equipment needed thereby is uncomplicated.The electrode pliability is good, but the electrode working life is short, and resistance is bigger, and high rate during charging-discharging is poor.If will reduce the electrode internal resistance, then need to increase a large amount of conductive agents, electrode capacity can be suffered a loss like this.
Active material directly is filled on the three-dimensional conductive substrates (as the foaming nickel substrate) and makes electrode, simplified production technology and equipment, but the electrodes conduct ability made from the method is unsatisfactory.In addition, the pliability of electrode is relatively poor.
In sum, all electrode manufacturing methods have all adopted conductive substrates, and the whole bag of tricks all has pluses and minuses.Except that three-dimensional conductive substrates, with the electrode three-dimensional structure of other substrate fabrication shown in Fig. 2 A and 2B.25 effects of playing water conservancy diversion and skeleton of conductor, and the effect of afflux seems not enough from the active material particle.In fact for the very tight battery of assembling,, do not need skeleton to support as takeup type lean solution battery.In addition, the active material 24 on the matrix 25 is very easy to come off, and has shortened electrode life.Though adopt three-dimensional conductive substrates to simplify Processes and apparatus, can not improve the conductive capability of electrode.
The object of the present invention is to provide a kind of method of making secondary alkaline cccumulator electrode, the electrode made of method has higher specific energy thus, good large current density characteristic and long working life.
According to this invention, the conductive fiber of active material and 3~60wt% (with respect to the electrode gross weight) (D:2~100 μ m, L/D 〉=5) is mixed, shaped electrode then, and do not adopt traditional conductive substrates.
The present invention---the manufacture method of no conventional conductive basal electrode, principal character is 3~60wt% conductive fiber of (being equivalent to the electrode gross weight) (D:2~100 μ m, L/D 〉=5) and active material fully mix, the direct forming electrode, and do not adopt the conventional conductive substrate, as Ni net, nickel strap with holes, nickel plating steel band with holes etc.According to the present invention, it is even that conductive fiber and active material and other are added material mixing, and shown in Figure 1A, conductive fiber 11 forms tridimensional networks, and active material 12 is bundled together with adding material 13, and press molding electrode then is shown in Figure 1B.
Because the present invention makes electrode and does not adopt conventional conductive substrates, so can reduce electrode weight, improve the pole piece gravimetric specific energy, the adding of conductive fiber simultaneously, in electrode, form the space network shown in Figure 1B, it has better conductive capability than conventional conductive substrate on the one hand, has reduced the electrode internal resistance, improves active material utilization; On the other hand, this space network tightly encases active material, has prolonged electrode life.In addition, do not lead substrate,, make the battery assembly yield improve, and this may for using barrier film thinner, that resistance is littler to provide in alkaline secondary cell as nickel screen, nickel strap with holes etc. because pole piece shown in Figure 1B has traditional electrical.
Above-mentioned described active material comprises: hydrogen storing alloy powder, Ni (OH) 2Powder (or NiOOH powder), CdO powder, MnO 2Powder.Adding material comprises: pore former, conductive agent and binding agents such as graphite powder, acetylene black, Co powder, CoO powder, nickel powder and various resins.
Above-mentioned used conductive fiber can be carbon fiber, graphite fibre, also can be nickel fiber type metal fiber or conductive plastics fiber, and these fibers will be used for the electrode manufacturing, must stablize in electrolyte.Fibre diameter D is between 2~100 μ m, if too little, intensity is too low; If too big, be difficult to reach the purpose of improving electrode performance.Fibre length and diameter ratio L/D answer 〉=5, and too weak point then can not wrap active material effectively.Consumption is selected in 3~60wt% (with respect to the pole piece gross weight).Poor less than the 3wt% electrode conductivuty, and it is difficult to be shaped; Greater than 60wt%, then can reduce activity substance filling amount, electrode capacity is low.
The present invention uses the method for conductive fiber in electrode is made, bad to conductivity, the electric conductivity that particularly non-conductive or semi-conducting material is made the electrode of electrode active material has great improvement.Obviously, the electrode to tradition has conductive substrates if add conductive fiber in active material, improves the electrodes conduct ability too greatly.Example one:
