Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to the field of porous membranes and to the fields of electric current producing cells and of separators for use in electric current producing cells. More particularly, this invention pertains to a porous separator membrane comprising an aluminum oxide and an organic polymer where the aluminum oxide has been surface modified by treatment with an organic acid to provide dispersibility in aprotic organic solvents. Also, the present invention pertains to electric current producing cells, such as lithium ion cells and capacitors, comprising such porous separators.
- An electroactive material that has been fabricated into a structure for use in an electrochemical cell is referred to as an electrode.
- the electrode on the electrochemically higher potential side is referred to as the positive electrode or the cathode, while the electrode on the electrochemically lower potential side is referred to as the negative electrode, or the anode.
- a battery may contain one or more electrochemical cells.
- an electrolyte element is interposed between the cathode and the anode.
- This electrolyte element must be electronically non-conductive to prevent short circuits, but must permit the transport of ions between the anode and the cathode.
- the electrolyte element should also be stable electrochemically and chemically toward both the anode and the cathode.
- the electrolyte element contains a porous material, referred to as a separator (since it separates or insulates the anode and the cathode from each other), and an aqueous or non-aqueous electrolyte, that usually comprises an ionic electrolyte salt and ionically conductive material, in the pores of the separator.
- a separator since it separates or insulates the anode and the cathode from each other
- an aqueous or non-aqueous electrolyte that usually comprises an ionic electrolyte salt and ionically conductive material, in the pores of the separator.
- porous separator materials include polyolefins such as polyethylenes and polypropylenes, glass fiber filter papers, and ceramic materials. Usually these separator materials are supplied as porous free-standing membranes that are interleaved with the anodes and the cathodes in the fabrication of electrochemical cells.
- a liquid organic electrolyte containing organic solvents and lithium salts is typically used as the electrolyte in the pores of the separator in the electrolyte element for rechargeable or secondary lithium ion and non-rechargeable or primary lithium electrochemical cells.
- a gel or solid polymer electrolyte containing an ionically conductive polymer and lithium salts, and optionally organic solvents, might be utilized instead of the liquid organic electrolyte.
- the separator In addition to being porous and chemically stable to the other materials of the electric current producing cell, the separator should be flexible, thin, economical in cost, and have good mechanical strength and safety properties.
- High porosity in the separator is important for obtaining the high ionic conductivity needed for effective performance in most batteries, except, for example, those batteries operating at relatively low charge and discharge rates, and for efficiency in capacitors, such as supercapacitors. It is desirable for the separator to have a porosity of at least 30 percent, and preferably 40 percent or higher, in lithium ion batteries.
- Another highly desirable feature of the separator in the electrolyte element is that it is readily wetted by the electrolyte materials that provide the ionic conductivity.
- the separator material is a polyolefin material that has non-polar surface properties
- the electrolyte materials (which typically have highly polar properties) often poorly wet the separator material. This results in longer times to fill the battery with electrolyte and potentially in low capacities in the battery due to a non-uniform distribution of electrolyte materials in the electrolyte element.
- the separators used for lithium ion batteries are typically polyolefin separators, which melt at below 200° C. and are very flammable.
- the lithium ion batteries, as well as lithium primary batteries and some capacitors, utilize highly flammable organic solvents in their electrolytes.
- a non-melting and flame retardant separator would help prevent the spread of any burning of the organic electrolyte, caused by an internal short circuit, thermal runaway, or other unsafe condition, that might spread into a larger area of the battery or capacitor and cause a major explosion.
- As lithium ion batteries are increasingly utilized for high power applications, such as for electric vehicles, the need for improved safety is greatly increased because of the very large size and high power rates of these vehicle batteries.
- the present invention utilizes non-flammable inorganic oxides, such as aluminum oxides, and preferably non-flammable organic polymers having fluorinated groups in the separators.
- This invention utilizes various inorganic oxide particle pretreatment, mixing, coating, drying, and delaminating methods for preparing such separators.
- One aspect of the present invention pertains to a separator for an electric current producing cell, wherein the separator comprises a microporous layer comprising (a) at least 50% by weight of an aluminum oxide and (b) an organic polymer, wherein the aluminum oxide is surface modified by treatment with an organic acid to form a modified aluminum oxide.
- the organic acid is a sulfonic acid, preferably an aryl sulfonic acid, and more preferably a toluenesulfonic acid.
- the organic acid is a carboxylic acid.
- the aluminum oxide comprises a hydrated aluminum oxide of the formula Al 2 O 3 ⁇ xH 2 O, wherein x is in the range of 1.0 to 1.5, and wherein the hydrated aluminum oxide is surface modified by treatment with an organic acid to form a modified hydrated aluminum oxide.
- the modified aluminum oxide has an Al 2 O 3 content in the range of 50 to 85% by weight.
- the modified aluminum oxide has an Al 2 O 3 content in the range of 65 to 80% by weight.
