Description

Rolled copper foil for negative electrode current collector of secondary battery, secondary battery negative electrode current collector and secondary battery using the copper foil, and manufacturing method of rolled copper foil for negative electrode current collector of secondary battery

The present invention relates to a rolled copper foil for a negative electrode current collector of a secondary battery, a secondary battery negative electrode current collector and a secondary battery using the copper foil, and a method for manufacturing a rolled copper foil for a secondary battery negative electrode current collector .

Compared with other secondary batteries, lithium ion secondary batteries have the characteristics of high energy density and high voltage. Therefore, power supplies for driving large-scale equipment such as batteries for various small electronic devices and electric vehicles are being developed.

The lithium ion secondary battery is composed of a positive electrode, a negative electrode, and a separator. The positive electrode is formed of an aluminum foil current collector and a lithium oxide-based active material coated on its surface, and the negative electrode is formed of a copper foil current collector and a carbon-based active material coated on the surface. The positive electrode and the negative electrode are insulated by a separator, and lithium ions move in the electrolyte between them to perform charge and discharge.

In recent years, there has been a need to increase the capacity of lithium ion secondary batteries, and various parts have been continuously developed. For the negative electrode material, one of the components, research is to replace existing carbon-based active materials with new-type active materials such as silicon-based active materials. These new active materials have the characteristics of large battery capacity and a large volume change rate during charge and discharge. Therefore, during repeated use, there is a problem that the active material is easily dropped from the current collector and the cycle characteristics are deteriorated. It is considered that this is due to the plastic deformation and cracking of the copper foil as the current collector accompanying the expansion and contraction of the active material during charging and discharging.

As a method of avoiding such inconveniences, a copper alloy foil is disclosed which contains at least one of 0.04% by mass or more and 0.20% by mass or less of tin and 0.01% by mass or more of silver. In the case of containing both tin and silver The total content of lower tin and silver is 0.20% by mass or less, and the balance is composed of copper and inevitable impurities (Patent Document 1). Patent Document 1 discloses a method of manufacturing a copper alloy foil, which includes continuously performing cold rolling with a processing degree of 60% or less for a predetermined number of times so that the total processing degree is 95% or more. In the present invention, since the copper alloy foil has not only a predetermined tensile strength but also a predetermined elongation, it is possible to suppress cracking of the copper alloy foil that cannot be suppressed by a copper alloy foil having a predetermined tensile strength.

The effect of the invention

According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a rolled copper foil for a negative electrode current collector of a secondary battery that can well suppress the plastic deformation and cracking of the copper foil accompanying the volume change of the active material, and is expected to contribute to the improvement of the secondary battery , In particular, the charge-discharge cycle characteristics of lithium ion secondary batteries and the realization of high capacity.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail.

(Composition of rolled copper foil)

The material of the rolled copper foil for the negative electrode current collector of the secondary battery of the present invention is preferably oxygen-free copper that complies with the JIS-H3100-C1020 standard. Since the composition is close to pure copper, the electrical conductivity of the copper foil does not decrease, and it is suitable for current collectors. When oxygen-free copper is used, the oxygen concentration contained in the copper foil is 0.001% by mass or less.

The copper foil of the present invention is formed of industrial copper and contains unavoidable impurities. P, Fe, Zr, Mg, S, Ge, and Ti, which are the inevitable impurities, even if a small amount is present, the bending deformation of the copper foil will cause the crystal orientation to easily rotate, and it is easy to introduce shear bands, and the current collector is Cracks and breakage are likely to occur when bending deformation is repeated, so it is preferably not contained. Therefore, in the copper foil of the present invention, it is preferable to control the total of one or two or more selected from the group consisting of P, Fe, Zr, Mg, S, Ge, and Ti as unavoidable impurities to 20 Mass ppm or less.

In addition, in order to improve the characteristics of the material, 0.2 to 2.0% by mass of Sn may be contained. The addition of Sn to copper foil will increase the strength of the material after the final cold rolling and improve the workability of the material. However, when the addition amount of Sn exceeds 2.0% by mass, the recrystallization temperature rises, making it difficult to suppress copper. The surface of the alloy is oxidized while recrystallization annealing is performed, or in the process of manufacturing the negative electrode material, the copper foil as the current collector is difficult to recrystallize during drying after coating the active material, and the characteristics of the present invention cannot be found. Therefore, the addition amount of Sn is preferably 2.0% by mass or less, more preferably 1.8% by mass or less, and still more preferably 1.6% by mass or less. When the addition amount of Sn is less than 0.2% by mass, the strength is insufficient. From this viewpoint, the addition amount of Sn is preferably 0.2% by mass or more, more preferably 0.4% by mass or more, and still more preferably 0.6% by mass or more.

In addition, Sn is more easily oxidized than Cu. Therefore, considering adverse effects such as forming oxides in the copper foil and becoming a starting point for cracks in the charge and discharge cycle test of the battery, Sn is usually added to the melt of oxygen-free copper.

It should be noted that when the term "copper foil" is used alone in this specification, copper alloy foil is also included, and when "oxygen-free copper" is used alone, copper alloy foil based on oxygen-free copper is also included.

(Tensile strength and elongation at break of rolled copper foil)

One of the characteristics of the rolled copper foil of the present invention is that the tensile strength is 650 MPa or more, and the elongation at break is 1.0% or more.

In the prior art, due to the increased elongation at break, in the secondary battery using rolled copper foil as the negative electrode current collector, even if the volume of the negative electrode active material changes during the charging and discharging of the secondary battery, the copper alloy foil It also elongates or contracts with the change in the volume of the negative active material.

However, even if a copper foil with a large elongation is used as the negative electrode current collector, charging and discharging may cause cracks or breakage in the copper foil. Specifically, charging and discharging cause the active material to expand and contract, so that the copper foil as the current collector is repeatedly subjected to stress concentration and the current collector is locally bent and deformed, and the charging and discharging cause the bending and deformation to repeatedly proceed. Bending deformation, along with the expansion and contraction of the active material, bending and bending recovery are repeated alternately. Under such severe conditions, cracks or breaks may occur in the copper foil as the current collector, the coated active material may fall off, and the cycle characteristics of the battery may deteriorate.

Therefore, the present invention not only increases the elongation at break, but also suppresses the plastic deformation of the rolled copper foil caused by stress by increasing the tensile strength. This suppression complements the increase in the elongation at break and can effectively suppress the plasticity of the rolled copper foil. Deformation and cracking are expected to contribute to the improvement of the charge-discharge cycle characteristics of secondary batteries, especially lithium ion secondary batteries, and the realization of higher capacity.

From this viewpoint, the tensile strength is preferably 660 MPa or more, more preferably 670 MPa or more, and still more preferably 680 MPa or more. The elongation at break is preferably 1.0% or more, more preferably 1.05% or more, and still more preferably 1.1% or more. The reason is that, for example, there is a demand for the expansion and contraction of the active material during charging and discharging of a lithium ion secondary battery to maintain adhesion and follow the expansion and contraction.

(Thickness of rolled copper foil)

The thickness of the rolled copper foil that can be used in the present invention is preferably 5 to 20 μm. Although the thickness of the copper foil does not have a specific lower limit, when the thickness is less than 5 μm, the handleability of the copper foil deteriorates, so it is preferably 5 μm or more, and more preferably 6 μm or more. Although the thickness of the foil does not have a specific upper limit, as the thickness increases, the energy density per unit weight of the battery decreases and the material cost also increases. Therefore, it is preferably 20 μm or less, and more preferably 10 μm or less.

In the present invention, the tensile strength refers to the value in the case of a tensile strength test based on the IPC-TM-650 test method 2.4.18 at normal temperature (23°C).

The elongation at break refers to the elongation when a test piece is broken when a tensile strength test is conducted based on IPC-TM-650 at room temperature (23°C). The elongation at break can be calculated according to the following formula. In the formula, L _o is the length of the sample before the test, and L is the length of the sample at the time of rupture.

Elongation at break (%) = (L-L _o )/L _o ×100

(Method of manufacturing rolled copper foil)

The rolled copper foil of the embodiment of the present invention can be manufactured as follows, for example. After hot-rolling an ingot cast to a predetermined composition, surface grinding is used to remove oxides, and the final cold rolling step is processed to a predetermined thickness, thereby manufacturing copper foil. In the final cold rolling step, the total processing degree exceeds 99.9%.

The total processing degree is calculated according to the following formula. In the formula, T ₀ is the thickness of the ingot before the final cold rolling step, and T is the thickness of the rolled material (ie, rolled copper foil) at the end of the cold rolling process in the final cold rolling step.

Total processing degree (%)={(T ₀ －T)/T ₀ }×100

By making the total processing degree exceed 99.9%, it is possible to obtain a rolled copper foil whose tensile strength and fracture elongation of the rolled copper foil are improved by work hardening.

In addition, in rolling, the material is repeatedly passed between a pair of rolls to finish the thickness. In this case, passing the material between the rolls once is referred to as one pass. In order to perform rolling at an appropriate strain rate to increase the tensile strength of the material, the degree of processing per pass is preferably 24% or more, more preferably 27% or more, and still more preferably 30% or more. When the processing degree per pass is less than 24%, the strain rate becomes slow, and sufficient tensile strength cannot be obtained. However, when the processing per pass is too high, the load on the rolling mill is too large, so it is preferably 50% or less, more preferably 45% or less, and still more preferably 40% or less. The degree of processing per pass can be calculated by the following formula. In the formula, T _n-1 is the thickness of the ingot before rolling of the pass, and T _n is the thickness of the ingot at the time when the pass is finished.

Machining degree per pass (%) = {(T _n-1 －T _n )/T _n-1 }×100

Furthermore, before the final cold rolling step, the ingot after hot rolling can be subjected to cold rolling treatment and annealing treatment. By performing annealing treatment, it is possible to further improve the bending resistance and the like.

In the final cold rolling step, the degree of working η in any rolling pass is defined as follows. In the formula, T ₀ is the thickness of the ingot before the final cold rolling step, and T _n is the thickness of the ingot at the end of the pass.

η=ln(T ₀ ／T _n )

When η is high, work hardening causes the strength of the material to increase. In order to obtain the target plate thickness, it is necessary to use a smaller diameter work roll and apply a higher pressure to the material. When the product of η and the diameter of the work roll (hereinafter, also referred to as "work roll diameter") r exceeds 250, the work roll diameter is large for the necessary pressure, so it is difficult to obtain the pressure necessary for rolling and it is difficult to obtain the necessary pressure for rolling. The load of the machine increases, so it is necessary to reduce the diameter of the work roll according to η in any pass. In addition, by using a work roll with a small diameter to perform the rolling step, it is possible to perform the rolling step by rolling with a higher degree of processing, and furthermore, it is possible to suppress the generation of shear bands. Therefore, the upper limit of the value of the product of η and the diameter of the work roll is 250. The upper limit of the product of η and the diameter of the work roll is preferably 240, and more preferably 230. Shear band is a structure where deformation is locally concentrated, and it is a part where strain accumulates and dislocation density increases. Since it is difficult to deform compared to the surrounding tissue, the elongation becomes worse when a shear band is generated in the material. However, the smaller the work roll diameter, the higher the maintenance frequency. Therefore, from the viewpoint of manufacturability, the lower limit of the product of η and the work roll diameter r is preferably 40. The lower limit of the product of η and the work roll diameter r is more preferably 70, and still more preferably 100.

As a graph showing the effect of the method of manufacturing rolled copper foil of the present invention, FIG. 1 shows the tensile strength (TS ) And elongation at break. In the figure, the total processing degree in the final cold rolling step of the present invention and the prior art is greater than 99.9% and 99%, respectively, and other manufacturing conditions are the same. According to Fig. 1, since the total workability in the final cold rolling step exceeds 99.9%, the tensile strength and elongation at break can be improved.

The characteristics of secondary batteries formed using the copper alloy foils of Examples 1 to 4 and Comparative Examples 1 to 7, respectively, were evaluated. Specifically, as the characteristics of the secondary battery, the presence or absence of the fractured portion of the negative electrode was evaluated.

(Production of negative electrode)

First, a negative electrode active material layer was formed on the front surface of any of the copper alloy foils of Examples 1 to 4 and Comparative Examples 1 to 7 to produce a negative electrode. Specifically, 45 parts by mass of scaly graphite powder as the negative electrode active material, 5 parts by mass of silicon monoxide (SIO), 2 parts by mass of SBR as the bonding material, and 20 parts by mass of the thickener aqueous solution The part is kneaded and dispersed to form a slurry (paste) of the negative electrode active material layer. In addition, 1 part by mass of CMC as a thickener was dissolved in 99 parts by mass of water to form a thickener aqueous solution. Next, on any front side (single side) of each copper alloy foil of Examples 1 to 4 and Comparative Examples 1 to 7, the slurry for the formed negative electrode active material layer was coated by a doctor blade coating method. The thickness is 100 μm. After that, the copper alloy foils of Examples 1 to 4 and Comparative Examples 1 to 7 each coated with the slurry for the negative electrode active material layer were heated at 200° C. for 1 hour and dried. Thus, a negative electrode active material layer having a thickness of 100 μm was formed on each of the copper alloy foils of Examples 1 to 4 and Comparative Examples 1 to 7. Then, by pressing the negative electrode active material layer, the thickness of the negative electrode active material layer was adjusted to 50 μm. After that, the laminate of the copper alloy foil and the negative electrode active material layer is subjected to press processing to produce a negative electrode (negative electrode plate) of a predetermined shape.

(Production of secondary battery)

Fabrication of the positive electrode plate (positive electrode) for the secondary battery. Specifically, 50 parts by mass of LiCoO ₂ powder as a positive electrode active material, 1 part by mass of acetylene black as a conductive aid, and 5 parts by mass of PVDF as a binder are mixed in water (solvent). Refining and dispersing to form a slurry (paste) for the positive electrode active material layer. Next, on any front side (single side) of the aluminum foil having a thickness of 20 μm as a positive electrode current collector, the slurry for the formed positive electrode active material layer was coated to a thickness of 100 μm by a doctor blade coating method. After that, the aluminum foil coated with the slurry for the positive electrode active material layer was heated at 120° C. for 1 hour and dried. Thus, a positive electrode active material layer having a thickness of 100 μm was formed on the aluminum foil. Then, by pressing the positive electrode active material layer, the thickness of the positive electrode active material layer was adjusted to 50 μm. After that, the laminate of the aluminum foil and the positive electrode active material layer is subjected to press processing to produce a positive electrode (positive electrode plate) of a predetermined shape.

By using the respective negative electrodes of the respective copper alloy foils (copper foils) of Examples 1 to 4 and Comparative Examples 1 to 7, the positive electrode, the separator, and the electrolyte, coin-case type lithium ion secondary batteries were produced. That is, the negative electrode active material layer of each negative electrode is arranged so that the positive electrode active material layer of the positive electrode is opposed to each other, and a polymer having a thickness of 20 μm is inserted between the negative electrode active material layer and the positive electrode active material layer. A separator composed of a porous film made of acrylic resin was used to produce a laminate of the negative electrode, the positive electrode, and the separator. Then, the laminate of the negative electrode, the positive electrode, and the separator was housed in a coin-shaped container (case), and the positive electrode and the negative electrode were electrically connected to the terminals inside the case, respectively. After that, in a mixed solvent formed by mixing 30% by volume of EC, 50% by volume of MEC, and 20% by volume of methyl propionate, 1 mol/liter of LiPF ₆ as an electrolyte and LiPF 6 as an additive are dissolved After the electrolyte of 1% by mass of VC was injected into the case, the case was sealed to fabricate a secondary battery.

(Evaluation of the presence or absence of rupture)

Regarding the secondary batteries formed using the copper alloy foils of Examples 1 to 4 and Comparative Examples 1 to 7, after charging and discharging the secondary batteries, it was visually confirmed that the copper alloy foil had cracks. Specifically, after alternately performing charging and discharging 50 times each under the condition of 25° C., the copper alloy foil was visually confirmed for cracks.

(Evaluation of cycle characteristics)

For each secondary battery formed using the copper alloy foils of Examples 1 to 4 and Comparative Examples 1 to 7, the capacity retention rate after charging and discharging the secondary battery was measured. Specifically, charge and discharge under the condition of 25℃, calculate the ratio of the discharge capacity of the 50th cycle to the discharge capacity of the second cycle, that is, calculate (discharge capacity of the 50th cycle/the second cycle The discharge capacity) × 100. At this time, charging ^{is carried out at a constant current density of 1mA/cm 2} until the battery voltage reaches 4.2V, and then at a constant voltage of 4.2V until the current density reaches 0.05mA/cm ² , and the discharge ^{is carried out at a constant current density of 1mA/cm 2} The current density is continued until the battery voltage reaches 2.5V. It should be noted that when charging is performed, the utilization rate of the capacity of the negative electrode is 90%, and the negative electrode does not deposit lithium metal. The results of the measured capacity retention rate are shown in Table 2. In addition, the evaluation of the capacity retention rate is shown in Table 2. The evaluation is that ◎ is particularly good, ○ is good, and × is bad.

＜Evaluation result＞

According to Examples 1 to 4 and Comparative Examples 1 to 7, it can be confirmed that a copper alloy foil having a predetermined tensile strength and elongation rate can suppress the deterioration of the secondary battery when used as a negative electrode current collector of a secondary battery. The copper alloy foil is broken due to charging and discharging. For example, it can be confirmed that in a secondary battery in which a copper alloy foil having a tensile strength of 650 MPa or more and an elongation rate of 1.0% or more is used as the negative electrode current collector, even if the secondary battery is repeatedly charged and discharged, the copper alloy foil Plastic deformation and cracking can also be suppressed.

That is, by having a predetermined tensile strength and elongation, plastic deformation and cracking of the copper alloy due to stress caused by the volume change of the negative electrode active material when the secondary battery is charged and discharged can be suppressed. Therefore, it was confirmed that the plastic deformation and cracking of the copper alloy foil can be suppressed.
