Description

Lithium carboxymethyl cellulose and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of cellulose chemical modification, in particular to a preparation method of lithium carboxymethyl cellulose, lithium carboxymethyl cellulose prepared by the preparation method and application of the lithium carboxymethyl cellulose in a lithium battery.
Background
Lithium carboxymethyl cellulose is a carboxymethylated derivative of cellulose, which is chemically modified to obtain a water-soluble ionic cellulose ether. Because the carboxymethyl cellulose lithium has the characteristics of thickening, water retention, emulsification and dispersion in water, the carboxymethyl cellulose lithium is applied to lithium batteries. However, the carbon chain skeleton of the natural cellulose is a chair-type six-membered ring structure connected by beta-1,4-glycosidic bonds, the ring-type main chain molecule of the structure cannot rotate freely, and the appearance is that the prepared film and other products have rigidity, and the main chain structure cannot be changed even if carboxymethylation modification is adopted. Therefore, the colloid containing the lithium carboxymethyl cellulose has certain brittleness after dehydration, and has the problems of difficult bending, easy powder falling after bending, easy fracture after folding and the like.
In the preparation of graphite negative electrodes for batteries, a combination of lithium carboxymethyl cellulose and Styrene Butadiene Rubber (SBR) is often used as a binder. Although SBR is a soft binding material, the added lithium carboxymethyl cellulose has rigidity, and particularly, when a pole piece with a relatively thick coating or the added lithium carboxymethyl cellulose with a high proportion is used, the phenomena of powder falling and cracking of a graphite layer and a basal layer can occur in the folding and bending process of the battery at the later stage, so that the quality problem of the battery is caused.
Chinese patent application CN 102206286A discloses a preparation method of lithium carboxymethyl cellulose for a lithium battery. The sodium carboxymethyl cellulose is firstly acidified and washed to obtain carboxymethyl cellulose hydrogen, and then the carboxymethyl cellulose hydrogen reacts with lithium hydroxide to prepare the lithium carboxymethyl cellulose. The carboxymethyl cellulose lithium prepared by the method still has a chair-type six-membered ring structure connected by beta-1,4-glycosidic bonds of cellulose, and is easy to lose powder when folded and bent when the use concentration of the carboxymethyl cellulose lithium is high or the battery graphite coating is relatively thick.
Chinese patent CN106336461B discloses another preparation method of lithium carboxymethyl cellulose. Namely, cellulose is alkalized in lithium hydroxide and then chloroacetic acid is added for etherification, and finally, the carboxymethyl cellulose lithium is obtained. The structure of the carboxymethyl cellulose lithium prepared by the method is also a six-membered ring structure connected by glycosidic bonds, and the prepared colloid has rigidity after being dried, so that the application of the colloid in the battery is also limited.
The above background disclosure is only for the purpose of assisting understanding of the inventive concept and technical solutions of the present invention, and does not necessarily belong to the prior art of the present patent application, and should not be used for evaluating the novelty and inventive step of the present application in the case that there is no clear evidence that the above content has been disclosed before the filing date of the present patent application.
Disclosure of Invention
In view of the above, in order to overcome the defects of the prior art, the present invention provides an improved method for preparing lithium carboxymethyl cellulose, which performs flexible chain modification on the structure of cellulose molecules.
In order to achieve the purpose, the invention adopts the following technical scheme:
a preparation method of lithium carboxymethyl cellulose comprises the following steps:
adding cellulose and lithium hydroxide such as lithium hydroxide monohydrate or lithium hydroxide into alcohol-containing aqueous solution, stirring, and reacting at 20-40 deg.C for 2-4 hr;
adding double-epoxidation butadiene, continuously controlling the temperature to be 20-40 ℃, and stirring for reacting for 1-3h;
adding alcoholic solution of chloroacetic acid, raising the temperature to 40-75 ℃ after adding, and reacting for 1-3h; obtaining crude carboxymethyl cellulose lithium;
and carrying out post-treatment on the crude lithium carboxymethyl cellulose to obtain the lithium carboxymethyl cellulose.
Lithium hydroxide is added into cellulose to activate the cellulose, for example, crystalline regions of the cellulose are destroyed, hydroxyl groups in the crystalline regions are fully exposed, the contact chance with small molecule reactants is increased, the reactivity and uniformity of the cellulose at the later stage are increased, and the subsequent alkaline condition also needs to be provided with the lithium hydroxide. The method adopts the bis-epoxidized butadiene to flexibly modify cellulose molecules, on one hand, the bis-epoxidized butadiene has moderate reaction activity, is relatively stable under neutral conditions, is easy to generate nucleophilic substitution reaction under alkaline conditions, can be matched with the preparation process of the lithium carboxymethyl cellulose, and has simple steps and controllable reaction; on the other hand, the molecular weight of butadiene diepoxide is relatively small, and when finished products with the same viscosity (the same viscosity can be approximately regarded as the same molecular weight) are prepared, more embedding points can be provided, so that the products have better flexibility.
According to some preferred embodiments of the invention, when the lithium hydroxide material is lithium hydroxide monohydrate, the mass ratio of the cellulose to the lithium hydroxide monohydrate is 1.
According to some preferred embodiments of the invention, the cellulose has a molecular weight of 2000 to 250000. If cellulose with larger molecular weight is selected as a basic reactant, the molecular weight of a final product is increased sharply, so that insoluble substances in an aqueous solution of the final product are increased, the phenomenon of net blocking of battery slurry at a later stage is caused, and the production efficiency of the battery is reduced.
According to some preferred aspects of the invention, the concentration of cellulose in the system after addition of cellulose and lithium hydroxide monohydrate to the alcoholic aqueous solution is from 400 to 1000g/L. If the cellulose concentration is too high, the absorption and extrusion effects of the cellulose in the kneader are poor, and the kneading resistance during the kneading process is obviously increased; if the cellulose concentration is too low, the reactant concentration is diluted, the conversion rate of the reaction decreases, and the cost increases.
According to some preferred embodiments of the invention, the alcohol concentration of the alcohol-containing aqueous solution is 50 to 98% by volume.
According to some preferred embodiments of the invention, the mass ratio of the cellulose to butadiene dioxide is 1. If the mass ratio of the selected bis-epoxybutadiene to the cellulose is too high, the reaction can be continuously carried out, the molecular weight of the product after the reaction is continuously increased, and finally, insoluble substances in the aqueous solution of the product are increased, so that the production efficiency of the battery is influenced; if the mass ratio of the diepoxybutadiene to the cellulose is too small, the molecular weight of the generated product is small, the viscosity of the aqueous solution of the product is low, and when battery slurry with the same viscosity is prepared, the use amount of the product needs to be increased, so that the energy density of the battery is indirectly influenced.
According to some preferred embodiments of the invention, the mass ratio of the cellulose to the chloroacetic acid is 1. If the mass ratio of the selected chloroacetic acid to the cellulose is too low, the hydroxyl substitution degree of the product after reaction is too low, the water solubility of the product is poor, a large amount of insoluble substances appear, and the later-stage screening and coating are affected; if the mass ratio of the selected chloroacetic acid to the cellulose is too high, the degree of hydroxyl substitution of the product is very high, so that the adsorption force of the product on the graphite surface is reduced, graphite powder in the battery slurry is easy to settle and delaminate, and the coating uniformity and the battery quality are affected.
According to some preferred aspects of the invention, the alcoholic solution of chloroacetic acid has a mass fraction of 50-90% in terms of chloroacetic acid in the alcoholic solution.
According to some preferred aspects of the invention, the alcoholic solution of chloroacetic acid is added for a period of 30-60min. If the chloroacetic acid is added for too short time, the reaction is not uniform, and a large amount of insoluble substances appear in the product aqueous solution; too long chloroacetic acid addition time increases reaction time and increases production cost.
According to some preferred embodiments of the invention, the alcohol in the alcoholic solution of alcoholic solution and chloroacetic acid is one or more of ethanol, propanol, butanol, isopropanol.
According to some preferred embodiments of the present invention, the post-treatment step is to neutralize the crude lithium carboxymethyl cellulose with an acidic substance, and then wash, dry and pulverize the neutralized product.
According to some preferred embodiments of the invention, the acidic substance is acetic acid and/or hydrochloric acid.
According to some preferred embodiments of the present invention, the washing is performed by washing with an aqueous ethanol solution for a plurality of times, preferably, an aqueous ethanol solution having a mass concentration of 75%.
According to some preferred implementation aspects of the invention, the drying condition is constant temperature in a forced air oven for 2 hours at 100-110 ℃.
The invention also provides the lithium carboxymethyl cellulose prepared by the preparation method of the lithium carboxymethyl cellulose and the application of the lithium carboxymethyl cellulose in a lithium battery. Specifically, in the preparation process of the negative electrode slurry of the battery, the lithium carboxymethyl cellulose is added to prepare a lithium carboxymethyl cellulose aqueous solution, then graphite, conductive graphite powder and SBR are added, the mixture is uniformly stirred and coated on a copper foil, and then the negative electrode of the battery is prepared through drying, extruding and curling in sequence.
The basic principle of the invention is as follows: under alkaline condition, the bis-epoxidized butadiene can generate nucleophilic substitution reaction with hydroxyl on cellulose, a flexible chain connected by ether bonds is embedded between the small molecular weight cellulose, and finally the obtained cellulose contains two molecular chains of rigid six-membered ring chain and flexible ether chain. The macromolecular structure containing the two chain segments has high strength and high flexibility, and after further carboxymethylation, the obtained carboxymethyl cellulose lithium also has the performance, so that the bending resistance of the carboxymethyl cellulose lithium can be improved, and the problems that the coating is easy to break and fall off after being bent are solved.
The reaction principle of the invention is shown as the following formula:

wherein R is 1 Is H or Li, R 2 Is H or CH 2 COOLi, m and n are natural numbers larger than 0.
By adopting the technical scheme, compared with the prior art, the invention has the advantages that: according to the preparation method of the lithium carboxymethyl cellulose, disclosed by the invention, the structure of cellulose molecules is subjected to flexible chain modification through bis-epoxidized butadiene, so that the rigidity of the cellulose structure is overcome, and the product has certain flexibility; in practical application, the flexibility and the bendability of the product prepared by adding the lithium carboxymethyl cellulose can be improved, the condition limitation of the application of the lithium carboxymethyl cellulose is reduced, and the application range of the lithium carboxymethyl cellulose is expanded.

Namely, the comparative example is different from example 1 in that: the double-epoxidized butadiene is not added for modification in the process of preparing the lithium carboxymethyl cellulose.
Comparative example 2
This comparative example differs from example 1 in that: this comparative example used a high molecular weight wood pulp having a molecular weight of about 600000. In the reaction process, gelation is caused due to the large molecular weight of cellulose, and the reaction is difficult to continue.
Comparative example 3
This comparative example differs from example 1 in that: the mass ratio of cellulose to butadiene dioxide in this comparative example was 1. The reaction is difficult to continue because the proportion of the bis-epoxidized butadiene is too high, which causes gelation.
Comparative example 4
This comparative example differs from example 1 in that: the mass ratio of cellulose to butadiene dioxide in this comparative example was 1. Due to the fact that the proportion of the bis-epoxidized butadiene is too low, the obtained product is high in hardness, poor in toughness, small in elongation at break and not obvious in improvement effect.
Comparative example 5
The lithium carboxymethyl cellulose in this comparative example is a common commercial product produced by Chongqing power Macro fine chemistry Co., ltd., model batch is CMC-LiBLCQ15-6 20090882.
Test and results
1) The lithium carboxymethylcellulose in examples and comparative examples was prepared as a 0.3% aqueous solution, and 80.0g of the aqueous solution was accurately weighed, poured into a petri dish, dried at room temperature to obtain a transparent film, and cut into a 6X 1cm long and wide film strip. And testing the tensile mechanical property of the film strip by adopting a universal testing machine, and setting the tensile speed to be 500mm/min. The test results are shown in the following table:
TABLE 1 mechanical Property test results
Serial number Tensile breaking force, N Elongation at break,%
Example 1 20.9017 1.2
Example 2 28.7859 1.4
Example 3 22.4065 1.2
Example 4 23.6758 1.2
Example 5 19.8963 1.1
Comparative example 1 16.4657 0.9
Comparative example 4 16.9768 0.9
Comparative example 5 16.8669 0.9
As can be seen from the results in table 1, the films prepared from the lithium carboxymethylcellulose of the examples have significantly improved tensile breaking force and elongation at break compared to the comparative examples, which indicates that the mechanical properties of the film strips prepared from the examples are enhanced.
2) The lithium carboxymethylcellulose of the examples and comparative examples were tested for curl performance in the preparation of electrical Chi Tongbo-graphite anode applications
The test method is as follows:
adding 98.1g of deionized water, 1.3g of lithium carboxymethyl cellulose in examples or comparative examples, 96.5g of graphite powder, 0.5g of superconducting graphite powder and 3.6g of water-soluble SBR into a beaker;
fully stirring, placing in a constant temperature water tank at 25 ℃ for constant temperature for 4 hours, and removing bubbles;
scraping a slurry film with the thickness of 200um on the copper foil by using a film preparation device;
drying in oven, rolling with 5kg roller in the same direction for 10 times, and cutting into copper foil of 10 × 10 cm;
the U-shaped curled copper foil is laid flat after one time, and the cracking and falling conditions of the graphite layer on the surface of the copper foil are observed.
The results of the experiments are shown in figures 1, 2 and table 2.
TABLE 2 results of U-crimping of copper foil-graphite negative electrode of battery
Serial number Cracking and falling off
Example 1 No powder falling from folds
Example 2 No powder falling from folds
Example 3 No powder falling from folds
Example 4 No powder falling from folds
Example 5 No powder falling from wrinkles
Comparative example 1 Powder falling and cracking
Comparative example 4 Powder falling and cracking
Comparative example 5 Powder falling and cracking
As can be seen from the results of fig. 1, fig. 2 and table 2, the negative electrode film (fig. 2) for lithium batteries prepared using the commercially available lithium carboxymethylcellulose of comparative example 5 exhibited cracking and peeling of graphite layers after U-crimping; in fig. 2, due to the poor toughness of the coating, part of the graphite coating falls off from the copper foil during the bending process, and part of the copper foil is exposed, namely the light-colored part in the drawing. On the other hand, when the lithium carboxymethyl cellulose prepared in example 2 was used to prepare a lithium battery negative electrode film (fig. 1), the graphite layer was not cracked or peeled off, although wrinkles were generated in the U-crimp process.
According to the preparation method of the flexible lithium carboxymethyl cellulose, the structure of cellulose molecules is subjected to flexible chain modification to form a structure with rigidity and flexibility, and then carboxymethylation is carried out to form the lithium carboxymethyl cellulose with a certain molecular weight. In practical application, the flexibility and the bendability of the product prepared by adding the lithium carboxymethyl cellulose can be improved, the application condition limit of the product is reduced, the application range of the product is expanded, and the product can be used as a binder of a lithium battery. The modified molecule contains functional monomer carboxyl, hydroxyl and flexible rotating carbon chain, so that the product has certain flexibility and overcomes the rigidity of the cellulose structure. The modified carboxymethyl cellulose lithium prepared by the invention has the original functions of thickening, dispersing, bonding and lithium supplement, and has better functions of preventing powder falling and cracking between a graphite layer and a metal surface in the folding process of a battery coating.
