Abstract
Electrochemical cells employ polyamides having amine numbers below 8 as electrical insulators such as seals, grommets, and the like, and as sealants, to inhibit cell leakage caused by the alkaline electrolyte. The polyamides include the straight-chain and branched-chain varieties, and are further notable in that they are substantially non-tacky.
Description
SPECIFICATION
Alkaline battery seal utilizing polyamide
The present invention relates generally to electrochemical battery cells, and more particularly to such cells utilizing insulator and sealant materials.
One of the difficulties in the manufacture and use of alkaline battery cells, comprising those battery cells including an alkaline electrolyte, relates to the ability of the electrolyte to wet metal surfaces. This ability has been determined to be one of the major causes of leakage in alkaline cells, as the electrolyte, by wetting the surface of the metal container for the electrolytic material, can actually "creep" through the interface of the seal that is conventionally disposed between the metal container and the other metal surfaces, that usually serve as the external current contacts for the cell.
A variety of materials have been previously suggested, that serve as seals or sealing compositions, and are accordingly disposed between adjacent metal surfaces, to provide both electrical insulation therebetween, and to effectively seal the surfaces to each other, to prevent the "creeping" of the alkaline electrolyte.
In particular, U.S. Patent No. 3 922 178 to
Winger, discloses a particular sealing composition comprising a fatty polyamide having an amine number above about 10, which purportedly provides an effective barrier to the alkaline electrolyte, and thereby prevents the occurrence of "creeping", as well as the degradation of certain components of the cell by contact with the alkaline electrolyte.
Also, in the instance where alkaline button cells are manufactured, it is desirable that the seal or sealant composition be essentially non-tacky, to facilitate automated transport and application during the manufacture of the cell.
It would therefore be desirable to develop additional polyamide seals and sealing materials that exhibit the favourable flexibility, adhesiveness, substantial absence of tack, and resistance to electrolyte creep that would render them suitable for use in alkaline battery cells of all descriptions.
In its broadest aspect, the present invention concerns an electrochemical cell containing a quantity of alkaline electrolyte, and having one or more surfaces subject to wetting thereby, which utilizes at such surfaces, a polyamide having an amine number less than 8.
More particularly, the present invention relates to an electrochemical cell including a container housing an anode, a cathode, and a quantity of alkaline electrolytic material, at least one cell cap in registry with the container, and at least one electrical insulator disposed between the cell cap and the container, wherein the electrical insulator comprises, or has disposed on the surfaces thereof which are in contact with the container and the cell cap, a polyamide having an amine number below 8.
A further embodiment of the present invention relates to a method for sealing an electrochemical cell as above described, comprising, in the first embodiment, providing a sealing material adjacent those surfaces subject to wetting by an alkaline electrolyte, said material comprising a polyamide having an amine number below 8. The present method comprises in a further embodiment, wherein the electrochemical cell includes an electrical insulator and a sealant, coating the surfaces of the insulator that contact the container and the cell cap with a sealant comprising a polyamide having an amine number below 8. Yet further, the electrical insulator may be prepared from the present polyamides.
Cells prepared in accordance with the present invention exhibit improved leakage resistance, and sealing characteristics, including resistance to "creep" from alkaline electrolyte.
Advantages of the invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from a consideration of the ensuing description which proceeds with reference to the following illustrative drawing, which is a partially sectioned elevational view of an electrochemical cell embodying the present invention.
In accordance with the present invention, alkaline battery cells may be prepared that utilize on or at surfaces subject to wetting by an alkaline electrolyte, a polyamide having an amine number below 8.
The polyamides useful in accordance with the present invention, include those fatty polyamides, whose preparation and properties are generally described on pages 597 to 61 5 in Volume 10 of "The Encyclopedia of Polymer Science and
Technology", Interscience Publishers (John Wiley 8 Sons, Inc.) New York. Generally, polyamides are prepared by the reaction of a polybasic acid with a polyfunctional amine. The polybasic acids may include both straight-chain and branched-chain alkyl moieties, including, for example unsaturated fatty acids derived from vegetable oils, and other sources. The present polyamides may therefore include those materials known as fatty polyamides of both straight-chain and branched-chain structure.
Preferably, the polyamides of the present invention possess amine numbers ranging from 1 to 8. Particularly, polyamides suitable for use in the present invention are available, commercially from the HB Fuller Company, Minneapolis,
Minnesota, and are known as "FULL MELT" (registered Trade Mark) resins. One such resin, designated FM-8200 is a fatty polyamide having an amine number generally ranging from about 6 to about 7. Another resin is designated FM--8050, and is likewise a fatty polyamide that is acid terminated and possesses an amine number of about 1 While the foregoing materials are noted, the present invention contemplates the use of other commercially available polyamides having amine numbers falling within the aforementioned ranges such as Union Camp 2645 (amine number 8) and Henkel Macromelt 6239 (amine number 7).
The polyamides of the present invention may be employed in a variety of ways, depending upon the specific application desired. Thus, for example, the polyamides can be fashioned into seals, gaskets, or grommets useful as electrical insulators in a variety of alkaline battery cells.
Alternately, the polyamide may be utilized as a sealant or adhesive composition that is applied to such gaskets, seals or grommets as they are interposed between adjacent metal surfaces in such cells.
The polyamides of the present invention may
be utilized alone, or may be mixed with adjuvant
materials, such as extenders, modifiers, and
hardeners, as described, for the purpose of
modifying the physical properties thereof.
In the instance where the polyamides of the
present invention are utilized as a coating, they
may be applied by known procedures, such as
from a hot melt, or from a solution in a solvent
such as an alcohol/aromatic hydrocarbon mixture.
The methods of application of the polyamides, such as suggested above, are known and do not per se form a part of the present invention.
Referring now to the drawing, a particular non
limiting example of an electrochemical cell is shown. The cell illustrated is a button cell 10 which represents that class of cells that are generally useful for hearing aids, watches, and other applications where low-rate continuous drain operation of the cell is desired. A metallic anode 14 is utilized, which is commonly prepared from either zinc or cadmium, with amalgamated zinc being the preferred anodic material. Other anode materials may also be used.
A container 12 houses a cathode 17 commonly prepared from a material such as mercuric oxide, silver oxide and others, with silver oxide being preferred. Cathode 17 is separated from anode 14 in the present illustration by a porous separator 16 and an absorbent spacer 1 5, spacer 1 5 containing an alkaline electrolyte such as potassium hydroxide (KOH) or sodium hydroxide (NaOH) for ionic conductivity. Container 12 functions as both the cathode current collector and the positive terminal of the cell while cell top or cell cap 1 1, in direct contact with anode 14, functions as the anode current collector and the negative terminal of the cell. Both cell top 1 1 and container 12 may
be composed of conductive materials such as stainless steel, nickel or nickel-plated steel, and the inner surfaces of cell top 1 1 may be coated with a suitable metal such as tin, copper, silver or gold.
Cell top 11 is in registry with container 12 as shown, but is electrically insulated therefrom. An electrical insulator, such as a plastic snap-on grommet 13 may be provided as shown, and in accordance with the present invention, grommet
13 may be prepared from a polyamide having an amine number of less than 8. In such instance, grommet 13 provides an effective unitary seal that prevents interstitial "creeping" of the alkaline electrolyte between the abutting surfaces of either cell top 1 1 and grommet 13, or container 12 and grommet 13.
In addition to utilizing polyamides disclosed herein as the material from which grommet 13 may be prepared, the present invention also contemplates the employment of the present polyamides as an adhesive coating disposed between container 12 and cell top 1 1, either in place of grommet 13, or as a coating disposed over the surfaces of grommet 13 that make contact with the corresponding adjacent surfaces of container 12 and cell top 11. Thus, those abutting surfaces of grommet 13 may be provided with a sealant or adhesive composition which may be dispensed in fluid form, so that upon the positioning of grommet 13 between the adjacent surfaces of container 12 and cell top 1 the sealant will form a barrier that is impervious to infiltration and destruction by alkaline electrolyte.
The polyamide sealant of the present invention may be employed with seals prepared from materials other than the present polyamide. Thus, for example, grommet 13 may be prepared from an insulative material such as nylon, or polyolefins such as polyethylene or polypropylene, and may thereafter be utilized in conjunction with the sealant of the present invention.
As mentioned earlier, the class of polyamides encompassed by the present invention are particularly useful in that they are substantially non-tacky. This property has been found to confer benefits in processing, particularly in the instance where the grommets and sealant compositions are employed in the automated manufacture of button cells. The absence of tackiness permits the sealant compositions to be conveyed to the point of application during cell assembly, by automated means, as the incidence of machinery clogging and breakdown is substantially reduced or eliminated.
Further, the absence of tackiness promotes uniformity of coating which, in turn, provides improved surface contact between the metal and the adhesive, with the result that seal failure is substantially reduced.
A method for sealing an electrochemical cell having a container, a quantity of an alkaline electrolyte and at least one surface subject to undesired wetting by the electrolyte is included.
The method comprises disposing on such surface or surfaces a quantity of a polyamide having an amine number below 8. The surfaces may be coated with the polyamide, or may be prepared from the polyamide, in the case of seals, grommets and the like.
The present invention also relates to a method of manufacturing electrochemical cells by assembling the container, alkaline electrolyte and cell cap to include a sealant or electrical insulator or both between the cell cap and the container.
The present method includes employing an electrical insulator prepared from the present polyamides, and in one embodiment such insulator may be utilized alone. In a further embodiment of the present method, the insulator may be coated with a quantity of a sealant composition comprising the polyamides of the present invention, which sealant composition has been conveyed to this coating station by automatic equipment. As noted above, the assembly of electrochemical cells is expedited by the capability of the present polyamides to be conveyed by large-scale automated means.
The manner in which the present class of polyamides is utilized may also vary, from the specific embodiments disclosed herein. Thus, the polyamides may be applied to a substrate as a thin coating by spraying, dipping, and the like.
This invention may be embodied in other forms or carried out in other ways without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics thereof.
The present invention is therefore to be considered as in all respects illustrative and not restrictive, the scope of the invention being indicated by the appended claims, and all changes which come within the meaning and range of equivalency are intended to be embraced therein.
