Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、電解液の保持性と極板との密着性に優れ、しかも平均孔径が小さく耐短絡性にも優れた密閉形鉛蓄電池用セパレータに関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来、耐短絡性に優れた密閉形鉛蓄電池用セパレータとして、ガラス繊維と無機粉体で構成したものや、ガラス繊維、合成繊維及び無機粉体で構成したものが知られている。
例えば、特開昭58−206046号公報には、SiO粒子を保持したガラス繊維もしくは合成繊維からなるセパレータが開示されている。
また、特開昭61−269852号公報には、平均直径1.0〜5.0μmの含アルカリ珪酸塩ガラスを主体とする繊維と、比表面積が100m2/g以上のシリカ粉末を主体とする粉末を、このシリカ粉末量がセパレータ重量の40wt%になるように湿式混抄し、ガラス繊維の間隙に粉末粒子を介在させて孔径を微細化するとともに、繊維同士又は繊維と粉末粒子とを、主として抄造の際に生じる水ガラス状物質によって相互に結合するようにした密閉形蓄電池用セパレータが開示されている。
さらに、特開平6−176749号公報には、ポリオレフィン系合成パルプ、ガラス繊維、合成繊維及び無機粉体を配合し、混合抄造した鉛電池用セパレータが開示されている。
【0003】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
上記のセパレータにおいて、結合剤を使用しないものは、電池組立時に無機粉体が脱落することにより、組立作業に支障を来すことがある。
また、水ガラス状物質によって繊維同士又は繊維と無機粉末とを結合するようにしたセパレータでは、pHを2.5〜3.5に保った水の中で一定時間分散させる必要があり、しかも、無機質からなる水ガラス状物質を結合剤としていることからセパレータが硬くなるため、電池組立作業に支障を来すことがある。
また、合成パルプ及び合成繊維からなる合成樹脂をバインダーとしたセパレータでは、材料相互間を強く結合するため、前記のセパレータと同様にセパレータが硬くなり、電池組立作業に支障を来すことがある。
【0004】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明の密閉形鉛電池用セパレータは、上記の問題点を解決するために、請求項1記載の通り、ガラス繊維と無機質粉体を含有した無機材料を主体として湿式混抄される密閉形鉛蓄電池用セパレータにおいて、分子量100万以上のイオン性高分子凝集剤を用いて、前記無機材料間が結合され、前記ガラス繊維がBET法に基づく平均直径が0.5μm〜1μmの微細ガラス繊維であり、前記無機質粉体が比表面積が150m /g〜300m /gの二酸化珪素であり、前記無機質粉体の添加量が15wt%〜40wt%であり、前記イオン性高分子凝集剤の添加量が抄紙スラリーの全固体重量を基準として0.05wt%〜0.5wt%であり、平均孔径5μm以下であり、BET法に基づく比表面積が20m /g〜130m /g未満であることを特徴とする。
【0005】
【発明の実施の形態】
本発明は、前記のように平均直径が0.5μm〜1μmの範囲の微細ガラス繊維と無機質粉体を含有した無機材料を主体として湿式混抄される密閉形鉛蓄電池用セパレータにおいて、分子量100万以上のイオン性高分子凝集剤を用いて無機材料間を結合するようにしたことにより、材料相互間を適度な結合力で結合でき、柔軟な抄紙シートとすることができる。
【0006】
また、紙層構造を決定する微細ガラス繊維の平均直径を前記のように0.5μm〜1μmの範囲としたことで、基本繊維構造自体の細孔径分布が小さくなり、しかも、繊維同士が構成する細孔に無機粉体が充満するため、前記繊維構造の細孔径分布はさらに小さくなり、結果的に平均孔径が5μm以下の耐短絡性の優れた柔軟な密閉形鉛電池用セパレータを得ることができる。
【0007】
さらに、微細ガラス繊維の平均直径を0.5μm〜1μmの範囲としたことにより、ガラス繊維重量当たりの繊維本数を多くすることができ、BET法に基づくセパレータの比表面積にして130m/gまでの多量の無機質粉体を湿式混抄した密閉形鉛電池用セパレータとすることができる。
【0008】
前記ガラス繊維としては、例えば、耐酸性のCガラスを、溶融、紡糸して得られるBET法に基づく平均繊維直径が0.5〜1μmの範囲から選択した微細なガラス繊維を使用する。
【0009】
また、無機質粉体としては、耐酸性を有するタルク、珪藻土、二酸化珪素等が使用可能であるが、無機質粉体の混抄による微孔の縮小効果が大きく、純度の高い材料が得られる点から、比表面積が150m/g〜300m/gの二酸化珪素の使用が好ましい。
【0010】
前記二酸化珪素粉体の添加量は、15〜40wt%が好ましい。これは、15wt%未満では、微孔の縮小効果が小さいため、耐短絡性の優れたセパレータを得ることができず、また、40wt%を超えるとセパレータが硬くなり電池組立作業に支障を来すだけでなく、セパレータから無機質粉体が脱落するからである。
【0011】
また、イオン性高分子凝集剤としては、分子量100万以上のアクリルアミドを含有する水溶性のカチオン性共重合体やエチレンイミン等のカチオン性高分子凝集剤を使用できるが、アニオン性、あるいはノニオン性高分子凝集剤との併用も可能である。
このようなイオン性高分子凝集剤は、微細ガラス繊維と無機質粉体を含有した無機材料を主体とする抄紙全材料に対してフロック形成を促し、そのフロック形成により無機質粉体の繊維材料への定着効率を著しく高めるとともに、無機材料を主体とした材料を相互に緩く結合するため、軟らかい密閉形鉛電池セパレータが得られる。
【0012】
なお、前記のイオン性高分子凝集剤の分子量は、100万以上が必要であり、100万未満では、無機質粉体の繊維材料への定着効率が低下し、多量の無機質粉体を混抄することが困難となるため好ましくない。また、イオン性高分子凝集剤の添加量は、抄紙スラリーの全固体重量を基準として0.05wt%〜0.5wt%の範囲が好ましい。これは、0.05wt%未満では、無機質粉体の繊維材料への定着効率が著しく低下するとともに、材料間の結合効果が期待できず、また、0.5wt%を超えると強いフロックを形成し、シート均質度の低下、即ち、地合の低下をもたらすからである。

上記表1から明らかなように、本実施例の密閉形鉛電池用セパレータのみが、比表面積が大きく、平均孔径が小さく、しかも圧縮時相対厚さが小さいものとなり、その結果、電解液の保持性と極板との密着性に優れ、しかも平均孔径が小さく耐短絡性にも優れた密閉形鉛蓄電池用セパレータが得られることが確認できた。

以上説明したように、本発明は、微細ガラス繊維と無機質粉体を含有した無機材料を主体として湿式混抄される密閉形鉛電池用セパレータにおいて、分子量100万以上のイオン性高分子凝集剤を用いて無機材料間を結合したことにより、材料相互間を適度な結合力で結合できるため、柔軟な抄紙シートとすることができる。また、紙層構造を決定する微細ガラス繊維の平均直径を0.5μm〜1μmの範囲としたことで、基本繊維構造自体の細孔径分布が小さくなり、しかも繊維同士が構成する細孔に無機質粉末が充満するため、細孔の径分布はさらに小さくなり、結果的に平均孔径が5μm以下の耐短絡性の優れた柔軟な密閉形鉛電池用セパレータを得ることができる。さらに、本発明の密閉形鉛電池用セパレータを使用すれば、電池組立てが容易となり、また、電池使用時において短絡を生じにくいことから電池寿命の延長効果を有する。[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a sealed lead-acid battery separator having excellent electrolyte retention and adhesion to an electrode plate, and having a small average pore diameter and excellent short-circuit resistance.
[0002]
[Prior art]
2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, as a sealed lead-acid battery separator excellent in short-circuit resistance, those composed of glass fiber and inorganic powder, and those composed of glass fiber, synthetic fiber, and inorganic powder are known.
For example, JP-A-58-206046 discloses a separator made of glass fiber or synthetic fiber holding SiO 2 particles.
Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 61-269852 is mainly composed of fibers mainly composed of alkali-containing silicate glass having an average diameter of 1.0 to 5.0 μm and silica powder having a specific surface area of 100 m 2 / g or more. The powder is wet-mixed so that the silica powder amount is 40 wt% of the separator weight, and the pore diameter is refined by interposing the powder particles in the gap between the glass fibers, and the fibers or the fibers and the powder particles are mainly used. A separator for a sealed storage battery is disclosed which is bonded to each other by a water glass-like substance generated during papermaking.
Furthermore, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 6-176749 discloses a lead battery separator in which polyolefin synthetic pulp, glass fiber, synthetic fiber and inorganic powder are blended and mixed.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
Of the above separators, those that do not use a binder may interfere with the assembly work due to the inorganic powder falling off during battery assembly.
Moreover, in a separator that binds fibers or fibers and inorganic powder by a water glass-like substance, it is necessary to disperse for a certain time in water whose pH is kept at 2.5 to 3.5, Since the separator is hard because it uses a water-glass-like substance made of an inorganic material as a binder, it may interfere with battery assembly work.
Moreover, in the separator which used the synthetic resin which consists of synthetic pulp and a synthetic fiber as a binder, since materials are couple | bonded strongly, a separator becomes hard similarly to the said separator, and it may interfere with battery assembly work.
[0004]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
Sealed lead battery separator of the present invention, in order to solve the above problems, as in Claim 1 wherein, sealed lead being wet混抄inorganic material containing glass fibers and inorganic powder mainly In the battery separator, the inorganic material is bonded using an ionic polymer flocculant having a molecular weight of 1 million or more, and the glass fiber is a fine glass fiber having an average diameter of 0.5 μm to 1 μm based on the BET method. the inorganic powder is a specific surface area of silicon dioxide of 150m 2 / g~300m 2 / g, the addition amount of the inorganic powder is 15 wt% 40 wt%, the added amount of the ionic polymer flocculating agent There was 0.05 wt% to 0.5 wt% based on the total solids weight of the papermaking slurry, an average pore diameter is at 5μm or less and a specific surface area based on BET method 20m 2 / g~130m 2 and less than g.
[0005]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
As described above, the present invention provides a sealed lead-acid battery separator that is wet-mixed mainly with an inorganic material containing fine glass fibers having an average diameter in the range of 0.5 μm to 1 μm and inorganic powder, and has a molecular weight of 1 million or more. By bonding the inorganic materials using the ionic polymer flocculant, the materials can be bonded with an appropriate bonding force, and a flexible papermaking sheet can be obtained.
[0006]
In addition, by setting the average diameter of the fine glass fibers that determine the paper layer structure in the range of 0.5 μm to 1 μm as described above, the pore size distribution of the basic fiber structure itself is reduced, and the fibers constitute each other. Since the pores are filled with inorganic powder, the pore size distribution of the fiber structure is further reduced, and as a result, it is possible to obtain a flexible sealed lead battery separator excellent in short circuit resistance with an average pore size of 5 μm or less. it can.
[0007]
Furthermore, by setting the average diameter of the fine glass fibers in the range of 0.5 μm to 1 μm, the number of fibers per glass fiber weight can be increased, and the specific surface area of the separator based on the BET method can be up to 130 m 2 / g. A separator for a sealed lead battery in which a large amount of inorganic powder is wet-mixed.
[0008]
As said glass fiber, the fine glass fiber selected from the range whose average fiber diameter based on BET method obtained by melt-spinning acid-resistant C glass is 0.5-1 micrometer is used, for example.
[0009]
In addition, as the inorganic powder, acid-resistant talc, diatomaceous earth, silicon dioxide, etc. can be used, but the effect of reducing the pores by mixing the inorganic powder is large, and a material with high purity can be obtained. the specific surface area is preferred to use the silicon dioxide 150m 2 / g~300m 2 / g.
[0010]
The addition amount of the silicon dioxide powder is preferably 15 to 40 wt%. If the amount is less than 15 wt%, the effect of reducing the micropores is small, so a separator with excellent short-circuit resistance cannot be obtained. If the amount exceeds 40 wt%, the separator becomes hard and hinders battery assembly work. In addition, the inorganic powder falls off from the separator.
[0011]
Further, as the ionic polymer flocculant, a water-soluble cationic copolymer containing acrylamide having a molecular weight of 1 million or more and a cationic polymer flocculant such as ethyleneimine can be used, but anionic or nonionic A combined use with a polymer flocculant is also possible.
Such an ionic polymer flocculant promotes the formation of flocks for all papermaking materials mainly composed of inorganic materials containing fine glass fibers and inorganic powders, and the formation of flocs to fiber materials of inorganic powders. Since the fixing efficiency is remarkably enhanced and materials mainly composed of inorganic materials are loosely bonded to each other, a soft sealed lead battery separator can be obtained.
[0012]
The molecular weight of the ionic polymer flocculant is required to be 1 million or more. If the molecular weight is less than 1 million, the fixing efficiency of the inorganic powder to the fiber material is lowered, and a large amount of the inorganic powder is mixed. Is not preferable because it becomes difficult. The addition amount of the ionic polymer flocculant is preferably in the range of 0.05 wt% to 0.5 wt% based on the total solid weight of the papermaking slurry. If the amount is less than 0.05 wt%, the fixing efficiency of the inorganic powder to the fiber material is remarkably lowered, and the bonding effect between the materials cannot be expected. If the amount exceeds 0.5 wt%, a strong floc is formed. This is because the sheet homogeneity is lowered, that is, the formation is lowered.
[0013]

An aqueous solution containing 0.2 part of 10,000 cationic acrylamide was added and mixed for 10 minutes to obtain a papermaking slurry. Next, the slurry was used for papermaking and drying to obtain a sealed lead battery separator having a thickness of 1.0 mm.
[0015]
[Comparative Example 1]
After mixing and dispersing 75 parts of acid-resistant glass fibers having an average fiber diameter of 1.5 μm and a specific surface area of 1.0 m 2 / g and 25 parts of silicon dioxide having a specific surface area of 230 m 2 / g using a water-type disperser, the molecular weight is 150. An aqueous solution containing 0.2 part of 10,000 cationic acrylamide was added and mixed for 10 minutes to obtain a papermaking slurry. Next, the slurry was used for papermaking and drying to obtain a sealed lead battery separator having a thickness of 1.0 mm.
[0016]
[Comparative Example 2]
After 90 parts of acid-resistant glass fibers having an average fiber diameter of 1.0 μm and a specific surface area of 1.5 m 2 / g and 10 parts of silicon dioxide having a specific surface area of 230 m 2 / g are mixed and dispersed using a water-type disperser, the molecular weight is 150. An aqueous solution containing 0.2 part of 10,000 cationic acrylamide was added and mixed for 10 minutes to obtain a papermaking slurry. Next, the slurry was used for papermaking and drying to obtain a sealed lead battery separator having a thickness of 1.0 mm.
[0017]
[Comparative Example 3]
After mixing and dispersing 75 parts of acid-resistant glass fiber having an average fiber diameter of 0.7 μm and a specific surface area of 2.3 m 2 / g and 25 parts of silicon dioxide having a specific surface area of 230 m 2 / g using a water-type disperser, the molecular weight is 50 An aqueous solution containing 0.2 part of 10,000 cationic acrylamide was added and mixed for 10 minutes to obtain a papermaking slurry. Next, papermaking was performed using the slurry, but a desired separator could not be obtained due to poor fixing efficiency of silicon dioxide to glass fibers.
[0018]
[Conventional example 1]
Mixing and dispersing 50 parts of acid-resistant glass fiber having an average fiber diameter of 0.7 μm and a specific surface area of 2.3 m 2 / g, 25 parts of silicon dioxide having a specific surface area of 230 m 2 / g and 25 parts of polyethylene synthetic pulp using a water flow type disperser. Then, an aqueous solution containing 0.2 part of cationic acrylamide having a molecular weight of 500,000 was added and mixed for 10 minutes to obtain a papermaking slurry. Next, the slurry was used for papermaking and drying to obtain a sealed lead battery separator having a thickness of 1.0 mm.
[0019]
[Conventional example 2]
After mixing and dispersing 75 parts of acid-resistant glass fiber having an average fiber diameter of 1.0 μm and a specific surface area of 1.5 m 2 / g and 25 parts of silicon dioxide having a specific surface area of 230 m 2 / g using a water-type disperser, sulfuric acid was added. The pH of water was adjusted to 3 and mixed for 10 minutes to obtain a papermaking slurry. Next, the slurry was used for papermaking and drying to obtain a sealed lead battery separator having a thickness of 1.0 mm.
[0020]
The characteristics of the separators for sealed lead batteries obtained in Examples 1 and 2, Comparative Examples 1 to 3 and Conventional Examples 1 and 2 were measured, and the results are shown in Table 1.
[0021]
[Table 1]
Figure 0004563537
[0022]
As is clear from Table 1 above, only the sealed lead battery separator of this example has a large specific surface area, a small average pore diameter, and a small relative thickness during compression. It was confirmed that a separator for a sealed lead-acid battery having excellent properties and adhesion between the electrode plates and having a small average pore diameter and excellent short-circuit resistance was obtained.
Further, in the separator of Conventional Example 1, by using polyethylene synthetic pulp and cationic acrylamide having a molecular weight of 500,000, the fixing efficiency with respect to the fiber material of silicon dioxide was good, but the relative thickness at the time of compression was thick, Therefore, since the texture of the separator became hard, the battery assembly workability was lowered.
Further, since the separator of Conventional Example 2 does not use cationic acrylamide having a molecular weight of 1,000,000 or more, it was expected that the fixing rate of the glass fiber was worse than that of the separator of the Example. As a result, almost the desired separator could be obtained with the water used becoming slightly cloudy. However, this separator had a large relative thickness when compressed, as in Conventional Example 1, and thus the texture of the separator became hard, resulting in a decrease in battery assembly workability.
[0023]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, the present invention uses an ionic polymer flocculant having a molecular weight of 1 million or more in a sealed lead battery separator that is wet-mixed mainly with an inorganic material containing fine glass fibers and inorganic powder. Since the inorganic materials are bonded to each other, the materials can be bonded with an appropriate bonding force, so that a flexible papermaking sheet can be obtained. In addition, since the average diameter of the fine glass fiber that determines the paper layer structure is in the range of 0.5 μm to 1 μm, the pore diameter distribution of the basic fiber structure itself is reduced, and the inorganic powder is formed in the pores that the fibers constitute. Therefore, the pore size distribution is further reduced, and as a result, a flexible sealed lead-acid battery separator having an average pore size of 5 μm or less and excellent short circuit resistance can be obtained. Furthermore, if the sealed lead battery separator of the present invention is used, battery assembly is facilitated, and a short circuit is unlikely to occur when the battery is used.
