Description

신규한 구조의 이차전지 {Secondary Battery of Novel Structure}[0001] The present invention relates to a secondary battery of a secondary battery,

본 발명은 신규한 구조의 이차전지에 관한 것으로서, 더욱 상세하게는 전지케이스에 양극/분리막/음극 구조의 전극조립체를 수납하고 열융착에 의해 외주면을 밀봉한 이차전지로서, 내부 실란트층/금속 배리어 층/외부 수지층의 단면 구조로 이루어진 밀봉부의 단면을 포함하는 전지케이스의 외주면 전부에 외부로부터 수분의 유입을 방지하고 절연저항이 향상되도록, 전기 절연성의 고분자 코팅층이 형성되어 있는 것을 특징으로 하는 이차전지에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a secondary battery having a novel structure, and more particularly, a secondary battery in which an electrode assembly of a cathode / separation membrane / cathode structure is housed in a battery case and sealed on an outer circumferential surface by thermal fusion, and includes an inner sealant layer / metal barrier. An electrically insulating polymer coating layer is formed on all of the outer circumferential surfaces of the battery case including the end face of the sealing part having the cross-sectional structure of the layer / outer resin layer to prevent the inflow of moisture from the outside and to improve the insulation resistance. It relates to a battery.

모바일 기기에 대한 기술 개발과 수요가 증가함에 따라 에너지원으로서의 이차전지의 수요가 급격히 증가하고 있고, 그러한 이차전지 중 높은 에너지 밀도와 방전 전압의 리튬 이차전지에 대해 많은 연구가 행해졌고 또한 상용화되어 널리 사용되고 있다.As technology development and demand for mobile devices have increased, the demand for secondary batteries as energy sources has been rapidly increasing. Many researches have been conducted on lithium secondary batteries with high energy density and discharge voltage among such secondary batteries. .

리튬 이차전지는 그것의 외형에 따라 크게 원통형 전지, 각형 전지, 파우치형 전지 등으로 분류되며, 전해액의 형태에 따라 리튬이온 전지, 리튬이온 폴리머 전지, 리튬 폴리머 전지 등으로 분류되기도 한다.Lithium secondary batteries are largely classified into cylindrical batteries, square batteries, pouch-type batteries, and the like according to their appearance, and may be classified into lithium ion batteries, lithium ion polymer batteries, lithium polymer batteries, and the like depending on the type of electrolyte.

모바일 기기의 소형화에 대한 최근의 경향으로 인해, 두께가 얇은 각형 전지, 파우치형 전지에 대한 수요가 증가하고 있으며, 특히, 형태의 변형이 용이하고 제조비용이 저렴하며 중량이 작은 파우치형 전지에 대한 관심이 높은 실정이다.Due to the recent trend toward the miniaturization of mobile devices, there is an increasing demand for thinner rectangular batteries and pouch-type batteries. In particular, for pouch-type batteries that are easy to deform, low in manufacturing cost and light in weight. Interest is high.

일반적으로, 파우치형 전지는 라미네이트 시트의 파우치형 케이스 내부에 전극조립체와 전해질이 수납되고, 케이스의 외곽이 밀봉되어 있는 전지를 말한다. In general, a pouch type battery refers to a battery in which an electrode assembly and an electrolyte are housed inside a pouch type case of a laminate sheet, and the outside of the case is sealed.

도 1을 참조하면 라미네이트 시트(10)는 최외곽을 이루는 외부 수지층(11), 물질의 관통을 방지하는 금속 배리어층(12), 접착층(13), 및 밀봉을 위한 내부 실란트층(14)으로 구성되어 있다. 경우에 따라서는, 접착층(13)이 포함되지 않을 수도 있다.Referring to FIG. 1, the laminate sheet 10 may include an outermost outer resin layer 11, a metal barrier layer 12 that prevents penetration of a material, an adhesive layer 13, and an inner sealant layer 14 for sealing. It consists of. In some cases, the adhesive layer 13 may not be included.

금속 배리어층은 파우치형 전지의 기계적 강도를 향상시키고, 공기, 습기 등과 같은 외부 불순물들이 전지의 내부로 유입되는 것을 방지하며 알루미늄 시트가 주로 사용된다. The metal barrier layer improves the mechanical strength of the pouch-type battery, prevents foreign impurities such as air, moisture, and the like from entering the inside of the battery, and an aluminum sheet is mainly used.

그러나, 상기 알루미늄 시트는 파우치형 케이스의 외곽의 단면 및 가스배출(degassing) 부위에서 외부로 직접 노출되어 있으므로, 이 경우 밀봉부의 절연저항이 저하될 수 있는 문제가 있다. 특히, 전극 탭들이 노출된 부위에서는 외력 인가시 전극 탭들이 알루미늄 시트와 직접 접촉되어 단락을 일으킬 수 있다.However, since the aluminum sheet is directly exposed to the outside from the cross section of the outer portion of the pouch type case and the degassing portion, there is a problem that the insulation resistance of the sealing portion may be lowered. In particular, the electrode tabs may be in direct contact with the aluminum sheet and may cause a short circuit when an external force is applied at the portions where the electrode tabs are exposed.

또한, 수분 차단성이 없는 외부 피복층이 상기 외곽 단면 및 디개싱 부위에서 외부에 직접적으로 노출되므로, 전지 내부로 수분이 유입되어, 수명특성의 저하, 장기 보관특성의 저하와 같은 문제를 일으킬 수 있다.In addition, since the outer coating layer having no moisture barrier property is directly exposed to the outside at the outer cross section and the degassing portion, moisture may flow into the battery, causing problems such as deterioration of life characteristics and deterioration of long-term storage characteristics. .

따라서, 상기와 같은 전지 성능이 저하되는 문제를 근본적으로 방지하고, 전지의 안정성을 확보할 수 있는 기술에 대한 필요성이 높은 실정이다.Therefore, there is a high need for a technology capable of fundamentally preventing the above-described problem of deterioration of battery performance and securing battery stability.

특히, 전기자동차, 하이브리드 자동차 등의 전원으로서 중대형 전지팩에 사용되는 이차전지는 장기간의 수명이 필요하고 다수의 전지셀들이 밀집되는 특성상 안전성 확보가 매우 중요하다.In particular, a secondary battery used in a medium-large battery pack as a power source of an electric vehicle, a hybrid vehicle, etc. needs a long lifespan, and it is very important to secure safety due to the fact that many battery cells are concentrated.

또한, 전지는 전지케이스가 자체로 높은 기계적 강성을 발휘할 수 있을 때, 침상 관통 등에 대해 우수한 저항성을 발휘할 수 있고, 다수의 전지들을 사용하여 중대형 전지팩을 구성할 때 우수한 구조적 안정성을 발휘할 수 있다.In addition, when the battery case can exhibit high mechanical rigidity by itself, the battery can exhibit excellent resistance against needle penetration and the like, and can exhibit excellent structural stability when constructing a medium-large battery pack using a plurality of batteries.

전지케이스에 상기와 같은 기계적 강성을 제공하는 하나의 방안으로는 동일한 소재에서 전지케이스의 두께를 두껍게 구성하는 것이지만, 이 경우, 전지의 경량화와 전지의 조립 특성이 저하되므로, 바람직하지 않다.One method of providing the above-mentioned mechanical rigidity to the battery case is to configure the thickness of the battery case thickly from the same material, but in this case, the weight of the battery and the assembly characteristics of the battery are deteriorated, which is not preferable.

따라서, 상기와 같은 안전성과 안정성을 모두 만족시킬 수 있는 이차전지에 대한 수요가 높다.Therefore, there is a high demand for a secondary battery that can satisfy both the above safety and stability.

본 발명은 상기와 같은 종래기술의 문제점과 과거로부터 요청되어온 기술적 과제를 해결하는 것을 목적으로 한다.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to solve the above-described problems of the prior art and the technical problems required from the past.

본원의 발명자들은 라미네이트 시트 단면을 포함한 파우치 케이스의 외주면 전부에 전기 절연층 또는 기계적 강성이 향상된 전기 절연층을 코팅시키거나, 선택적으로, 서로 다른 물성을 갖는 코팅층을 형성시키는 경우, 라미네이트 시트 단면의 노출 가능성을 최소화하여 안전성을 담보하면서, 얇은 두께에도 불구하고 우수한 기계적 특성을 발휘할 수 있고, 특정 부위에만 선택적으로 절연층을 코팅시키는 경우에 비해 제조공정성이 향상됨을 확인하고 본 발명을 완성하게 되었다.When the inventors of the present invention coat an electrical insulating layer or an electrical insulating layer having improved mechanical rigidity on all of the outer circumferential surface of the pouch case including the laminate sheet cross section, or optionally, forming a coating layer having different physical properties, the laminate sheet cross section is exposed. While minimizing the possibility and ensuring safety, excellent mechanical properties can be exhibited despite the thin thickness, and compared to the case where the insulating layer is selectively coated only on a specific site, the manufacturing processability is improved and the present invention has been completed.

따라서, 본 발명에 따른 이차전지는 전지케이스에 양극/분리막/음극 구조의 전극조립체를 수납하고 열융착에 의해 외주면을 밀봉한 이차전지로서, 내부 실란트층/금속 배리어 층/외부 수지층의 단면 구조로 이루어진 밀봉부의 단면을 포함하는 전지케이스의 외주면 전부에 외부로부터 수분의 유입을 방지하고 절연저항이 향상되도록, 전기 절연성의 고분자 코팅층이 형성되어 있는 것을 특징으로 한다.Accordingly, the secondary battery according to the present invention is a secondary battery in which an electrode assembly of a cathode / separation membrane / cathode structure is housed in a battery case and sealed an outer circumferential surface by thermal fusion, and has a cross-sectional structure of an inner sealant layer, a metal barrier layer, and an outer resin layer. An electrically insulating polymer coating layer is formed on all of the outer circumferential surfaces of the battery case including the end surface of the sealing part to prevent the inflow of moisture from the outside and to improve the insulation resistance.

따라서, 본 발명에 따른 이차전지는 전지케이스의 외주면 전부에 전기 절연층을 형성시킴으로써 라미네이트 시트 단면의 절연저항을 향상시키는 동시에 외부로부터 수분이 유입되는 것을 방지하여 수명특성, 장기 보관특성을 향상시키는 효과를 발휘한다. Therefore, the secondary battery according to the present invention improves the insulation resistance of the cross section of the laminate sheet by forming an electrical insulation layer on the entire outer circumferential surface of the battery case and prevents water from flowing in from the outside, thereby improving the life characteristics and long-term storage characteristics. Exert.

상기 전극조립체로부터 연장되어 외부로 노출되어 있는 전극 탭들이 전지케이스와 접하는 접합단면의 전극 탭들의 상하면에는 절연성 필름 층이 더 형성되어 있을 수 있다.An insulating film layer may be further formed on the upper and lower surfaces of the electrode tabs of the junction section in which the electrode tabs extending from the electrode assembly and exposed to the outside are in contact with the battery case.

일반적으로, 양극 탭은 알루미늄 시트로 이루어지고, 음극 탭은 구리 시트로 이루어지므로, 열융착 시 전극 탭들이 형성된 부위는 밀봉력이 저하된다. 따라서, 전극 탭들이 형성된 부위에는 밀봉성이 향상되도록 절연테이프로 전극 탭들의 상하면을 감쌀 수 있다. In general, since the positive electrode tab is made of an aluminum sheet and the negative electrode tab is made of a copper sheet, the sealing force is deteriorated in a portion where the electrode tabs are formed during thermal welding. Therefore, the upper and lower surfaces of the electrode tabs may be wrapped around the electrode tabs with insulating tape to improve sealing.

상기 고분자 코팅층은, 다음의 예로 한정되는 것은 아니지만, 바람직하게는, 폴리부틸렌테레프탈레이트(PBT), 폴리에틸렌테레프탈레이트(PET), 아로마틱 폴리아마이드, 폴리아마이드(PA), 폴리카보네이트(PC), 폴리스티렌(PS), 폴리페닐렌설파이드(PPS), 열방성 액정고분자, 폴리술폰, 폴리에테르술폰(PES), 폴리에테르이미드(PEI), 폴리에테르에테르케톤(PEEK), 폴리아릴레이트, 폴리메틸메틸아크릴레이트(PMMA), 폴리비닐알코올(PVA), 폴리프로필렌(PP), 폴리에틸렌(PE), 폴리아크릴로니트릴-부타디엔스타이렌 공중합체(PAN-PB-PS), 폴리테트라메틸렌옥사이드-1,4-부탄디올 공중합체(폴리부틸렌테레프랄레이트 탄성체), 스티렌을 포함하는 공중합체, 불소계 수지, 폴리비닐클로라이드(PVC), 및 폴리아크릴로니트릴(PAN)로 이루어진 군으로부터 선택된 하나 이상이 것으로 이루어질 수 있다. The polymer coating layer is not limited to the following examples, but preferably, polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), aromatic polyamide, polyamide (PA), polycarbonate (PC), polystyrene (PS), polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), thermotropic liquid crystal polymer, polysulfone, polyether sulfone (PES), polyetherimide (PEI), polyether ether ketone (PEEK), polyarylate, polymethylmethylacrylic Rate (PMMA), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), polyacrylonitrile-butadiene styrene copolymer (PAN-PB-PS), polytetramethylene oxide-1,4- At least one selected from the group consisting of butanediol copolymer (polybutylene terephthalate elastomer), copolymer comprising styrene, fluorine resin, polyvinyl chloride (PVC), and polyacrylonitrile (PAN) Can be done.

상기 고분자 층의 두께는 밀봉부 단면의 두께 대비 1% 내지 20%인 것이 바람직한 바, 상기 고분자 층의 두께가 밀봉부 단면 두께 대비 너무 작은 경우에는 소망하는 기계적 강성을 얻을 수 없고, 반대로 너무 큰 경우에는 파우치형 이차전지의 두께가 두꺼워지므로 바람직하지 않다. 더욱 바람직한 두께는 1% 내지 10%일 수 있다.It is preferable that the thickness of the polymer layer is 1% to 20% of the thickness of the cross section of the seal. If the thickness of the polymer layer is too small compared to the thickness of the seal section, the desired mechanical rigidity cannot be obtained.
