Description

Liquid fire-fighting medium and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of fire extinguishment, in particular to a liquid fire extinguishing medium and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
The lithium ion battery is widely applied to the fields of electric automobiles, energy storage systems and the like due to the characteristics of high working voltage, high energy density, wide working temperature, long cycle life, no memory effect, environmental friendliness and the like. Taking a lithium ion battery energy storage power station as an example, along with the large-scale application of the lithium ion battery energy storage power station, the safety problem of an energy storage system is brought into wide attention, the lithium ion battery is easy to generate heat in the charging and discharging process, the local temperature is extremely easy to be too high to cause spontaneous combustion, and once one or a plurality of battery cores are spontaneous combustion, flame is extremely easy to spread in the whole battery box and even the whole energy storage system, so that serious thermal runaway phenomenon occurs; along with the construction and application of the energy storage power station project, the fire hazard of the energy storage power station project is gradually revealed. How to ensure the fire safety of an energy storage power station and ensure the safe operation of the energy storage power station is a problem to be solved urgently in the energy storage industry. The main fire-fighting means in the related art at present are as follows:
one is gas fire protection, which uses perfluoro-hexanone or heptafluoropropane as fire extinguishing inhibitor, and when the battery box is in fire, the fire is extinguished and inhibited by spraying perfluoro-hexanone or heptafluoropropane. In the closed space, the perfluoro-hexanone or heptafluoropropane with certain concentration has excellent cooling and fire extinguishing effects. However, both the perfluoro-hexanone and the heptafluoropropane belong to gaseous fire extinguishing media, and fire surface flames can only be extinguished in a lithium ion battery thermal runaway fire disaster, and even if the fire surface flames are injected into a sealed battery box, the protection of a battery cell shell is difficult to break through so as to contact a battery thermal runaway source. Secondly, the fire extinguishing nature of the perfluoro-hexanone and the heptafluoropropane is that the temperature of a heat source is reduced through gasification heat absorption and the generated gas is isolated from oxygen to achieve the fire control purpose, but the thermal runaway of the lithium ion battery is that the chemical reaction has low temperature requirements, and the material of the lithium ion battery itself is provided with oxygen element to provide oxygen for the thermal runaway reaction, so that the thermal runaway lithium ion battery is difficult to be hindered from being reburning.
A fire-fighting liquid medium is mainly to use water as fire-fighting medium and to achieve the purpose of fire-fighting by directly injecting water into a thermal runaway cell. After water enters, the energy of thermal runaway of the battery core is absorbed and reacts with internal lithium so as to block electrochemical energy runaway reaction; but the negative effects are: the reaction of water and lithium inside the cell is severe, which is unfavorable for water entering the thermal runaway cell, so a large amount of water is often needed to dilute the negative effect of the reaction, but a large amount of water can also cause the short circuit and the fire of the battery module of the energy storage power station to cause secondary damage. Meanwhile, water is easy to freeze at low temperature, and is unfavorable for use in low-temperature environment.

Unless otherwise indicated, the starting materials and reagents used in the following examples were either commercially available or may be prepared by known methods.
Embodiments of the present invention aim to solve at least one of the technical problems in the related art to a certain extent, and a first aspect of the embodiments of the present invention proposes a liquid fire-fighting medium comprising polyol, perfluoro-hexanone, water and a pH adjustor;
the sum of the volumes of the polyol, the perfluorinated hexanone and the water is 100%, wherein the polyol is 50-60%, the perfluorinated hexanone is 8-12%, and the balance is water;
wherein the boiling point of the polyol is greater than or equal to 180 ℃;
the pH regulator is used for regulating the pH value of the liquid fire-fighting medium to 8-9.
In the embodiment of the invention, the perfluorinated hexanone is led into the thermal runaway battery core to enter the material level in a liquid state through a low surface tension solvent so as to prevent the thermal runaway from continuing to react, and meanwhile, the weak alkalinity of the liquid fire-fighting medium further inhibits the reaction strength of water and lithium in the battery core, and the thermal failure battery core is immersed in the fire-fighting process. The embodiment of the invention realizes the root extinguishing of the fire source in the battery core without the occurrence of reburning. In addition, the liquid fire-fighting medium provided by the embodiment of the invention takes the polyalcohol with the boiling point of more than or equal to 180 ℃ as the main solvent, so that the liquid fire-fighting medium has a wider temperature application window.
It can be understood that the liquid fire-fighting medium of the embodiment of the invention is different from gaseous fire-fighting medium perfluoro-hexanone or heptafluoropropane, can be directly immersed into the thermal runaway cell through the explosion-proof valve opened before the thermal runaway of the cell, can radically extinguish the fire source in the cell, and can not generate afterburning.
It can be appreciated that the liquid fire-fighting medium of the embodiment of the invention is different from the water medium, and the surface tension of the medium is far lower than that of water, so that the liquid fire-fighting medium is beneficial to the fire fighting by invading the material level inside the battery cell. The liquid medium can inhibit the reaction intensity of the liquid fire-fighting medium and lithium in the battery cell, and the liquid fire-fighting medium only needs to submerge the battery cell with heat failure relative to the water medium. In the liquid fire-fighting medium, the gaseous fire-fighting medium, namely the perfluorinated hexanone, is introduced into the failure cell through the liquid characteristic to perform fire-fighting, and other fire-extinguishing substances and additives are allocated to strengthen the overall fire-extinguishing capability of the liquid medium.
In the present invention, the solvent includes a polyhydric alcohol and water, and the polyhydric alcohol is the main solvent, and the inventors found that: in the embodiment of the invention, the ratio of the polyhydric alcohol in the liquid fire-fighting medium is 50-60%, under the ratio, the freezing point of the liquid fire-fighting medium can be detected below-40 ℃, thereby meeting the application scene of more than 99%, simultaneously, under the addition, the surface tension of water is reduced, so that the liquid fire-fighting medium is easier to be injected into the battery core and invaded into a material level for fire fighting, and meanwhile, the boiling point and specific heat capacity of the water are improved, and the fire extinguishing capability is enhanced. Non-limiting examples are: the polyol may be 50%, 52%, 55%, 56%, 58%, 60%, etc.
The inventors found that: in the embodiment of the invention, when the proportion of the perfluorinated hexanone in the liquid fire-fighting medium is less than 8%, the temperature reduction rate is low during fire fighting, and the fire-fighting effect is not achieved; when the proportion of the perfluorinated hexanone is more than 12%, the cooling rate can not be effectively improved, and the overall cost is increased; comprehensively considering that the proportion of the perfluorinated hexanone is 8-12%; non-limiting examples are: the content of the perfluoro-hexanone is 8%, 9%, 10%, 11%, 12% and the like.
The inventors found that: when the pH value of the liquid fire-fighting medium is lower than 8, the reaction inhibition strength of water and lithium metal in the battery is low, the reaction is severe, and the safety is influenced; when the pH value of the liquid fire-fighting medium is more than 9, on one hand, the ageing of the fire-fighting system is accelerated, and on the other hand, the high alkaline environment is easy to produce dirt, and comprehensively considered, the pH value of the liquid fire-fighting medium is adjusted to be 8-9 through the pH regulator. Non-limiting examples are: the pH regulator is used for regulating the pH of the liquid fire-fighting medium to 8, 8.2, 8.5, 8.6, 8.8, 9, etc.
In the invention, the main solvent is the polyhydric alcohol with the boiling point of more than or equal to 180 ℃, and the main reasons are as follows: the lithium ion battery has the explosion-proof valve opening stage before thermal runaway, and the temperature of the explosion-proof valve opening is generally 130-160 ℃, and the boiling point of the polyhydric alcohol in the formula is controlled to be more than or equal to 180 ℃ in the application, so that potential safety hazards formed by gasification when alcohols with lower selected temperature are effectively avoided.
In some embodiments, the polyol is one or more of ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, glycerol, or butanediol. Preferably, the polyol is ethylene glycol. It can be understood that the ethylene glycol has better miscibility compared with other alcohols, so that the fire-fighting effect is further improved, and the application range is wider and the ethylene glycol is more available.
In some embodiments, the pH adjuster is NaHCO 3 、KHCO 3 、LiHCO 3 、Na 2 CO 3 、K 2 CO 3 One or more of the following. Preferably, the pH adjustor is LiHCO 3 . When the pH regulator is LiHCO 3 On the one hand LiHCO 3 The lithium ion battery is slightly alkaline, and can inhibit the reaction of water and lithium in the battery through the alkalinity, and on the other hand, the concentration of lithium ions is increased, so that the reaction of water and lithium in the battery is inhibited to generate lithium ions. The combined action of the alkali inhibition and the concentration inhibition effectively inhibits the reaction intensity of water and lithium in the battery.
In some embodiments, the water is deionized water.
In some embodiments, the liquid fire medium has 50-55% polyol, 8-12% perfluorohexanone, and 33-42% water.
In some embodiments, a pH adjustor is used to adjust the pH of the liquid fire-fighting medium to between 8.5 and 9. The inventors found that: under the condition that the pH is 8.5-9, the alkali inhibition can be better, the aging of the fire-fighting system is basically negligible, the generation probability of dirt is reduced, and the safety and the reliability of the whole fire-fighting system are further ensured.
By way of example, embodiments of the present invention provide a liquid fire fighting medium comprising ethylene glycol, perfluoro hexanone, water, and LiHCO 3
According to the volume percentage, the ethylene glycol accounts for 50-60 percent, the perfluorinated hexanone accounts for 8-12 percent, and the balance is water;
LiHCO 3 is used for adjusting the pH value of the liquid fire-fighting medium to 8-9.
In the example, ethylene glycol is used as a main solvent of a liquid fire-fighting medium, and perfluoro-hexanone is mixed into ethylene glycol to form ethylene glycol-perfluoro-hexanone emulsion, and the ethylene glycol-perfluoro-hexanone emulsion has an ethylene glycol guiding flow function and can release perfluoro-hexanone when heated, and can be gasified rapidly and cooled for first-round fire fighting; the glycol-perfluoro hexanone emulsion is matched with weak alkaline water for strengthening the fire-fighting function of the fire-fighting medium. The water is dissolved in the ethylene glycol to reduce the surface tension, so that the liquid fire-fighting medium can conveniently invade the internal material of the thermal runaway battery cell to carry out fire-fighting, the weak alkaline water enters the internal part of the battery cell and then carries out chemical reaction with internal lithium, the weak alkaline water can inhibit the chemical reaction intensity, the fire-fighting function is further enhanced, the reaction of the weak alkaline water and the internal lithium of the battery cell replaces the original thermal runaway reaction after the weak alkaline water enters the internal part of the battery cell, and the generated heat can be gasified and taken away by the perfluoro-hexanone.
The second aspect of the embodiment of the invention also provides a preparation method of the liquid fire-fighting medium, which comprises the following steps: and (3) uniformly mixing the perfluorinated hexanone, the polyalcohol and the water, and then regulating the pH value by using the pH regulator to obtain the liquid fire-fighting medium.
The preparation method of the embodiment of the invention is simple, easy to operate, high in safety of the used components, stable in property of the prepared liquid fire-fighting medium and easy to transport and store.
The preparation process of the embodiment of the invention can be carried out at normal temperature (25 ℃ +/-5 ℃).
The third aspect of the embodiment of the invention also provides an application of the liquid fire-fighting medium as a fire extinguishing agent for lithium ion batteries, wherein the liquid fire-fighting medium is the liquid fire-fighting medium or the liquid fire-fighting medium prepared by the method.

Preferably, the liquid fire-fighting medium fills the battery box within 2-4 min. Non-limiting examples are: the battery box is filled for a period of about 2 minutes, about 2.5 minutes, about 3 minutes, about 3.5 minutes, about 4 minutes, etc.
In some embodiments of use, the liquid fire medium is used at an ambient temperature of-40 ℃ to 60 ℃. Non-limiting examples are: the application environment temperature can be-40 to-20 ℃, 20 to 0 ℃, 10 to 0 ℃, 0 to 30 ℃, 20 to 60 ℃ and the like.

Recording the number (number) of the thermal runaway batteries, the highest surface temperature (DEG C) of the thermal runaway batteries, the surface temperature (DEG C) of the thermal runaway batteries after the liquid fire-fighting medium starts to be injected for 1min, the surface temperature (DEG C) of the thermal runaway batteries when the liquid fire-fighting medium is immersed in a battery box, the reburning performance of 12h and the like in the experimental process. The results are shown in Table 2.
After the experiment, the battery box material object is disassembled, the battery core after the experiment in the figure 1 is shown, and the explosion-proof valves of other battery cores (adjacent battery cores No. 2 and No. 3) are not operated except that the explosion-proof valve of the No. 1 battery core is opened, and the appearance is normal.
Table 2 liquid fire fighting Medium Performance and Experimental Effect of examples 1-10 and comparative examples 1-8
Figure BDA0004135791380000101
As can be seen from the data of examples 1 to 10, the liquid fire-fighting medium of the embodiment of the invention can realize rapid cooling, and the surface temperature of the thermal runaway battery is 40.2 to 52.9 ℃ when the liquid fire-fighting medium is immersed in the battery box for about 3min; and standing and observing the experimental sample for 12 hours, wherein the battery pack is not reburnt and does not thermally diffuse. And disassembling the battery pack object after the experiment. Except that the 1# cell explosion-proof valve is opened, other cell explosion-proof valves are not operated and have normal appearance, so that the fire-fighting experiment achieves a plurality of targets of extinguishing open fire, quickly cooling, blocking/insulating, continuously inhibiting, inerting explosion suppression and the like on a thermal runaway battery after the injection of the liquid fire-fighting medium in a simulated open fire combustion scene of the lithium iron phosphate battery, and the experiment proves that the liquid fire-fighting medium has a strong fire-fighting function. The liquid fire-fighting medium of the embodiment of the invention is not frozen at the temperature of minus 40 ℃, has a wider temperature application window, and can adapt to the application environment of minus 40 ℃ to 60 ℃.
As can be seen from the comparison of examples 1, 5 and 6 and comparative examples 5 and 6, when the content of the perfluorinated hexanone in the liquid fire-fighting medium is lower than 8%, the temperature reduction speed is low during fire fighting, the fire-fighting capacity is affected, and when the content is higher than 12%, the influence on the fire-fighting capacity is not obviously improved. In the range of examples 8 to 12% of the present invention, the rate of cooling increases as the content of perfluorohexanone increases.
As can be seen from the comparison of examples 1 to 10 with comparative example 1, compared with the aqueous medium, examples 1 to 10 of the present invention have a wider temperature application window, a faster cooling rate, and the "pyridine" sound in examples 1 to 10 of the present invention is far lower than the "pyridine" sound degree of comparative example 1, as found by monitoring the "pyridine" emitted from the thermal runaway cell during the experiment; the liquid fire-fighting medium of the embodiments 1 to 10 can effectively inhibit the reaction strength of water and lithium in the battery cell, and improve the safety of the whole fire-fighting system.
As can be seen from the comparison of examples 1 to 10 and comparative example 2, the pure perfluoro-hexanone in comparative example 2 can be used as a fire-fighting medium to rapidly cool the battery box and the thermal runaway cell, but after the perfluoro-hexanone volatilizes in the later stage of fire-fighting, the electrochemical reaction in the thermal runaway cell can be continued, so that the phenomenon of afterburning occurs.
As can be seen from comparison of the embodiment 1, the comparative examples 3 and 4, the temperature lowering performance of the fire-fighting medium can be improved to a certain extent when the water ratio is large, but the effect is limited, but when the water content is more than or equal to 60%, the freezing phenomenon is generated in the environment of-20 ℃, the application range of the liquid fire-fighting medium is affected, meanwhile, the freezing point of the liquid fire-fighting medium is affected due to the excessively high ethylene glycol ratio, and the cost is considered, so that the ethylene glycol ratio is controlled to be 50-60% and the water ratio is controlled to be 28-42% in the embodiment of the invention.
The comparison of the experimental phenomena of fire fighting in examples 1, 7 and 8 and comparative examples 7 and 8 shows that the 'pyrolyl' sound emitted from the thermal runaway cell in the experimental process is reduced along with the increase of the pH value of the liquid fire fighting medium, and the analysis is that the more obvious the inhibition effect on the reaction intensity of water and lithium in the thermal runaway cell is along with the enhancement of the alkalinity of the liquid fire fighting medium, but the more the pH value exceeds 9, the ageing of a fire fighting system is accelerated, meanwhile, the dirt is easy to generate in the high alkaline environment, and the pH is controlled to be 8-9 comprehensively considered.
Comparison of the fire extinguishing experiments of example 1 and example 10 shows that the temperature reduction speed during fire fighting is not greatly different, but the "pyrolliding" sound emitted in the thermal runaway cell of example 10 is lower than that of example 1 in the experimental process, and the analysis reasons are probably as follows: liHCO on the one hand 3 The lithium ion battery is slightly alkaline, and can inhibit the reaction of water and lithium in the battery through the alkalinity, and on the other hand, the concentration of lithium ions is increased, so that the reaction of water and lithium in the battery is inhibited to generate lithium ions. The combined action of the alkali inhibition and the concentration inhibition effectively inhibits the reaction intensity of water and lithium in the battery.
