Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of lithium ion batteries, in particular to a heat absorption composite material, a heat absorption composite structure, a preparation method of the heat absorption composite structure and a lithium ion battery unit.
Background
With the development of new energy automobiles, lithium ion batteries are gradually replacing gasoline as a power source of automobiles. However, the safety performance of the lithium ion battery has a great restriction on the development of the electric vehicle. The lithium ion battery contains an oxidant, a reducing agent and flammable electrolyte, and has potential safety hazards of fire and explosion all the time. When a certain battery cell in the battery pack abnormally generates heat due to short circuit or unbalanced electrical property in the charging and discharging process, once the temperature of the certain battery cell exceeds the critical temperature (generally about 150 ℃) of thermal runaway), the material inside the battery cell can continuously generate thermal decomposition exothermic reaction, so that the temperature of the battery cell rapidly rises to generate the thermal runaway, the battery cell fires, and the temperature of the battery cell can exceed more than 500 ℃ during the thermal runaway. If there is not the excellent thermal-insulated structure of heat-proof quality between the adjacent electric core, then the heat that electric core thermal runaway released can spread to neighbouring electric core rapidly to arouse that adjacent electric core also takes place thermal runaway, finally lead to whole battery package to take place comprehensive thermal runaway, produce violent burning exothermic reaction, can even produce the explosion when serious. Therefore, the control of the thermal spread is crucial to the improvement of the safety of the lithium ion battery.
At present, a heat insulation film is generally arranged between adjacent cells to prevent heat spreading after thermal runaway of a single cell, and the material of the heat insulation film comprises heat insulation materials such as aerogel or mica sheets. However, the heat insulation effect of the heat insulation material is limited, and the heat insulation material is not enough to insulate heat generated when the battery core is out of control due to heat, so that the battery pack still has certain potential safety hazards.

The thickness of the heat absorbing composite structure is 2.5mm.
Comparative example 1
This comparative example provides a silica aerogel sheet of 3.0mm thickness as a heat insulating film.
Test example 1
Referring to fig. 2, the heat-absorbing composite structure 1 provided in example 4 is placed between a first cell 2 and a second cell 3 that are adjacent to each other, a heating plate 4 is disposed on one side of the first cell 2 away from the heat-absorbing composite structure 1, and the first cell 2 is triggered to generate thermal runaway by controlling the temperature of the heating plate 4; the method includes the steps of testing a temperature T1 of a central position of one side surface of the first battery cell 2 facing the heat absorption composite structure 1 and a temperature T2 of a central position of one side surface of the second battery cell 3 facing the heat absorption composite structure 1 by using a thermocouple, monitoring voltages of the first battery cell 2 and the second battery cell 3, and obtaining a change curve of the temperatures and the voltages of the first battery cell 2 and the second battery cell 3 in a heating process of the first battery cell 2, specifically, see fig. 3, where an abscissa represents test time, a left ordinate represents temperatures of T1 and T2, and a right ordinate represents voltages of the first battery cell 2 and the second battery cell 3.
Similarly, the silica aerogel sheet provided in the comparative example 1 is placed between a third electric core and a fourth electric core which are adjacent to each other, a heating plate is arranged on one side of the third electric core, which is far away from the silica aerogel sheet, and the third electric core is triggered to generate thermal runaway by controlling the temperature of the heating plate; the temperature T3 of the central position of one side surface of the third battery cell, which faces the silica aerogel sheet, and the temperature T4 of the central position of one side surface of the fourth battery cell, which faces the silica aerogel sheet, are tested by a thermocouple, and the voltages of the third battery cell and the fourth battery cell are monitored, so that a change curve of the temperatures and the voltages of the third battery cell and the fourth battery cell in the heating process of the third battery cell is obtained, specifically, see fig. 4, wherein the abscissa represents the test time, the ordinate on the left represents the temperatures of T3 and T4, and the ordinate on the right represents the voltages of the third battery cell and the fourth battery cell.
As can be seen from fig. 3, the first electrical core 2 undergoes a voltage dip at 514s, and the temperature T1 at the surface center position suddenly rises to 840 ℃, so that thermal runaway occurs; t1 decreased to 400 ℃ at 798 s. The temperature of the second electrical core 3 rises when the first electrical core 2 is thermally out of control, and under the action of the heat absorption composite structure 1, the temperature T2 of the central position of the surface of the second electrical core 3 rises to about 255 ℃, and then is cooled, during which the voltage of the second electrical core 3 is kept constant, that is, the second electrical core 3 is not thermally out of control.
As can be seen from fig. 4, when the voltage of the third battery cell suddenly decreases at 328s, the temperature T3 at the center of the surface thereof suddenly increases to about 850 ℃, and thermal runaway occurs; at 615s T3 decreased to 400 ℃. The temperature of the fourth cell also rises when thermal runaway occurs in the third cell, the temperature T4 at the center of the surface of the fourth cell rises to 300 ℃ at 456s, and the temperature T4 rises suddenly at 633s and the voltage of the fourth cell drops, namely thermal runaway occurs.
As can be seen from the above results, the heat-absorbing composite structure 1 provided in embodiment 4 can absorb a large amount of heat generated by the thermal runaway cell, so as to reduce the temperature rise rate and the highest temperature of the neighboring cell, and effectively reduce the risk of thermal runaway occurring in the neighboring cell; meanwhile, compared with the aerogel sheet with the thickness of 3.0mm provided by the comparative example 1, the heat absorption composite structure 1 with the thickness of 2.5mm provided by the example 4 is thinner, which is beneficial to reducing the occupied space of the non-energy part of the lithium ion Chi Baozhong and increasing the energy density of the lithium ion battery pack.
It should be understood that the above examples are only for clarity of illustration and are not intended to limit the embodiments. Other variations and modifications will be apparent to persons skilled in the art in light of the above description. And are neither required nor exhaustive of all embodiments. And obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are intended to be within the scope of the invention.
