Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of flow battery sealing films and preparation thereof, and particularly relates to a sealing film for a flow battery, which is used for sealing each pile component of the flow battery, and a manufacturing method of the sealing film.
Background
In recent years, renewable energy power generation is rapidly developing, and solar energy and wind energy have intermittence and volatility compared with conventional fossil energy. In order to avoid the impact on the safety of the power grid, a large-scale energy storage technology is developed to realize peak clipping and valley filling of the power grid, and the organic flow battery is generated as novel energy storage equipment.
The flow battery is further a water-based organic flow battery, and has the characteristics of safety, environmental protection, long service life and the like. The electrolyte is dissolved in pure water by adopting an organic composition, the system has no strong acid and strong corrosiveness, does not depend on metal resources, and is relatively more environment-friendly.
The performance of the stack in the aqueous organic flow battery affects the charge and discharge performance of the overall battery system. The electric pile is formed by sequentially superposing and connecting a plurality of single cell elements in series, wherein the single cell elements generally comprise the following components: as shown in fig. 1, the cell element includes: a plate frame 1; a bipolar plate 2 disposed within the plate frame; a carbon felt electrode 3, a sealing gasket 4 is arranged between the plate frame 1 and the ion exchange membrane 5; an ion exchange membrane 5 is arranged between the bipolar plates and surrounds the plate frame to form a cavity, and electrolyte and carbon felt electrode 3 can be contained in the cavity. The single cell elements formed by the components are sequentially overlapped and are fastened through bolts and nuts to finally form the organic flow cell pile.
The pile is formed by superposing and combining a plurality of single cell elements, and the quality of sealing performance of the pile directly influences whether the water-based organic flow battery can run safely and stably. At present, most of traditional flow batteries are assembled by adopting a fastening mode of bolts and nuts, but due to the fact that the hardness of each sealing element in the electric pile and the structural accuracy of the sealing elements are different, the problem that the packaging pressure of each component in the electric pile is easily distributed unevenly under the packaging load cannot be solved, the long-term tightness of the electric pile cannot be maintained, and the stability of battery charging and discharging and the safety of operation are further affected.
Disclosure of Invention
In order to solve the problem that the sealing performance of a traditional galvanic pile is insufficient, the traditional sealing film is formed by punching a complete film, the actual utilization rate of the film is only about 30%, the rest about 70% of the film is recycled after being crushed, the recycled film is recycled after being subjected to punching, and the reciprocating circulation is performed, so that a great amount of manpower and material resources are consumed on one hand, and on the other hand, the processability and the sealing film performance of the film-forming resin are affected after being recycled for many times. The invention creatively adopts the encapsulation injection molding process, and directly coats a thin elastic film on one side of the plate frame. Meanwhile, the C-shaped short glass fiber is introduced into the sealing film composition, so that the sealing film composition has excellent dimensional stability and compression creep resistance, and the sealing performance and the safety of long-term operation of the flow battery stack are ensured.
In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical scheme of the invention is as follows:
the invention provides a creep-resistant POE film for sealing a flow battery, which takes ethylene-olefin copolymer POE as a base material, and is blended with other thermoplastic functional resins except an elastomer, and meanwhile, necessary functional auxiliary agents are added. The MFR of POE is preferably 1 to 20g/10min, more preferably 2 to 10g/10min. Other thermoplastic functional resins are amorphous alpha-olefin copolymers (APAO) and polypropylene waxes (PP waxes), which are low molecular weight olefin resins. The necessary functional auxiliary agents comprise a dimensional stabilizer, a compatilizer, a lubricant and an antioxidant. The thickness of the sealing film is controlled to be 0.1-1mm according to the requirement.
The sealing film for the compression creep-resistant flow battery comprises, by weight, 70-85 parts of an ethylene-olefin copolymer, 5-15 parts of an amorphous alpha-olefin copolymer, 1-10 parts of polypropylene wax, 2-15 parts of a dimensional stabilizer, 0-10 parts of a compatilizer, 0-3 parts of a lubricant and 0-2 parts of an antioxidant.
Further, the ethylene-olefin copolymer is one or two of ethylene-butene copolymer and ethylene-octene copolymer.
Further, the size stabilizer is an extremely-short glass fiber of C-shaped short glass fiber which is ground and screened, the length is 60-100 mu m, and the alkali content is lower than 15%; the chemical stability, the electrical insulation performance and the strength are all good, and the purpose of adding the short glass fiber is to reduce the compression creep rate of the sealing film and improve the long-term dimensional stability of the sealing film.
Further, the compatilizer is maleic anhydride grafted POE resin (POE-g-MAH), and the compatilizer has the function of improving the dispersion effect and interfacial compatibility of glass fibers in the resin.
Further, the antioxidant is a hindered phenol antioxidant; preferably 0-2 parts of antioxidant.
Further, the lubricant is an organic-based lubricant, preferably, the lubricant is a fatty acid soap compound such as zinc stearate, calcium stearate, lead stearate, calcium montanate, etc., preferably, 0 to 3 parts of the lubricant.
The invention also provides a preparation method of the creep-resistant POE film for sealing the flow battery, which comprises the following steps: uniformly mixing an ethylene-olefin copolymer, an amorphous alpha-olefin copolymer, polypropylene wax, a size stabilizer, a compatilizer, a lubricant and an antioxidant, extruding and granulating by a screw extruder, and encapsulating, injecting and forming a film. Before the sealing film is finally produced, it is necessary to perform pre-granulation by a twin-screw extruder, and the purpose of the pre-granulation is to disperse the various components more uniformly by the kneading process.
Before mixing, the glass fibers are subjected to a high temperature treatment, i.e., 400 ℃ for 1 hour, to remove the bundled aids adhering to the surface and render them into bulk fibers for use.
POE, APAO, PP wax, dried at 80 ℃ for 5 hours for use.
Further, the temperature of the extrusion granulation is 180-210 ℃. In order to minimize the loss of material properties due to shear heat, a twin screw extruder is specified with an aspect ratio of 7-18:1.
Further, the encapsulation injection molding film is realized by secondary injection molding, one side of the plate frame is coated with a thin sealing film, and the sealing film and the plate frame are molded into a whole, so that the thickness is uniform. The temperature of the encapsulation and injection molding is 180-220 ℃.
The invention also provides a flow battery, which comprises the creep-resistant POE film for sealing the flow battery.
Further, the creep-resistant POE film for flow battery sealing described above is used to overmold a flow battery assembly into a film seal.
The beneficial effects of the invention are as follows:
the invention provides a composition, which comprises a sealing film for an organic flow battery, wherein the sealing film takes a thermoplastic elastomer POE as a main resin and comprises other thermoplastic functional resins and necessary functional auxiliary agents. The sealing film has certain strength, higher rebound resilience, excellent creep resistance, stable size and corrosion resistance. The organic flow battery using the sealing film solves the problem of electrolyte leakage caused by the difference of the hardness and the structural precision of each sealing element of the galvanic pile. Therefore, the organic flow battery with the sealing film structure operates more safely and smoothly.

Detailed Description
The present invention is further illustrated in the following drawings and detailed description, which are to be understood as being merely illustrative of the invention and not limiting the scope of the invention.
The sealing film for the organic flow battery takes thermoplastic elastomer POE as main resin, and simultaneously comprises other thermoplastic functional resins and necessary functional auxiliary agents.
The thermoplastic elastomer provides necessary strength and rebound resilience for the sealing film, vulcanization is not needed, extrusion molding can be carried out after direct plasticizing, the molding process only involves physical change, and the process is simpler. The POE thermoplastic elastomer is of two types, namely ethylene-butene copolymer and ethylene-octene copolymer, preferably of ethylene-octene copolymer type.
For elastomer POE, namely thermoplastic elastomer prepared by in-situ polymerization of ethylene and octene by adopting a metallocene catalyst, the soft chain curled structure of the octene and the crystallized ethylene chain are used as physical crosslinking points, so that the elastomer POE has excellent toughness and good processability. The main chain does not contain double bonds, so that the heat stability and the aging resistance are better.
The sealing film for organic flow battery of the present invention uses a POE thermoplastic elastomer, and further uses an amorphous α -olefin copolymer (APAO) and a polypropylene wax (PP wax) in minor amounts.
The APAO is an amorphous plastic material with low molecular weight, is produced by polymerization reaction of a-olefin, and can improve the processability and compatibility of the material;
the PP wax is metallocene catalyzed polypropylene, is usually used as a raw material of hot melt adhesive, has excellent adhesive force and cohesive force, can reduce the solution viscosity, and the addition of nonpolar PP wax is beneficial to improving the bonding strength between a film forming matrix and a plate frame made of PP material after secondary injection molding.
