Definitions
- the present invention relates to a treated steel sheet for a battery case, and particularly to an alkaline manganese battery or the like.
- the present invention relates to a surface-treated steel sheet used for a case of a tertiary battery, and further relates to a battery case and a battery using the surface-treated steel sheet.
- the nickel-tin diffusion layer is excellent in reducing the internal resistance, there is a problem that the discharge characteristics are deteriorated by D while the alloy layer is in contact with the alkaline solution for a long time. .
- the adhesion to the case steel sheet is good, and the adhesion to the positive electrode mixture is good, which is comparable to that of the nickel-tin diffusion layer. Also, if a metal or alloy material that does not deteriorate the discharge characteristics is selected and used, it can be expected that the above problems will be solved and the battery life will be improved. Disclosure of the invention
- the present invention is characterized in that the plating layer components are not eluted into the alkaline solution even if the bismuth metal is in contact with the alkaline solution for a long time because of its excellent alkali resistance.
- this metal has been focused on that a diffusion layer can be easily formed because the metal is easily diffused, and a metal containing bismuth is used for the inner surface of the battery case by utilizing such a property.
- a battery whose discharge characteristics do not deteriorate for a long time is provided.
- the surface-treated steel sheet for a battery case of the present invention is characterized in that a bismuth layer is formed on the outermost surface of the surface inside the battery case.
- the bismuth layer is formed by electrolytic plating.
- the surface-treated steel sheet for a battery case of the present invention is characterized in that a nickel layer is formed as a lower layer and a bismuth layer is formed as an upper layer on a surface inside the battery case.
- the surface-treated steel sheet for a battery case of the present invention is characterized in that an iron-nickel diffusion layer is formed on the inner side of the battery case, a nickel layer is formed as an intermediate layer, and a bismuth layer is formed on the upper layer.
- the nickel layer is formed of a matte nickel plating layer, a semi-bright nickel plating layer, or a bright nickel plating layer.
- the surface-treated steel sheet for a battery case of the present invention is characterized in that a bismuth layer is formed on the outermost layer on the inner side of the battery case.
- the bismuth layer is desirably formed by electrolytic plating.
- the surface-treated steel sheet for a battery case of the present invention is characterized in that a nickel layer is formed as a lower layer and a bismuth layer is formed as an upper layer on a surface inside the battery case.
- the battery case of the present invention is characterized in that, on the inner side of the battery case, a 12-inch iron diffusion layer is formed as a lower layer, a nickel layer is formed as an intermediate layer, and a bismuth layer is formed as an upper layer.
- the nickel layer is formed of a matte nickel plating layer, a semi-bright nickel plating layer, or a bright nickel plating layer.
- the battery of the present invention is a battery using the battery case according to any one of claims 6 to 10.
- the surface-treated steel sheet of the present invention has good adhesion between the steel sheet and the bismuth layer, when used as a battery case, the battery performance is less deteriorated.
- the elution of the components is extremely small even after being in contact with the alkaline solution for a long time, it is possible to provide a battery with little discharge deterioration.
- Steel sheets include cold-rolled low-carbon A1 killed steel sheets, ultra-low carbon steel sheets with a carbon content of 0.003% or less, and non-aging ultra-low steel sheets with the addition of niobium, boron, titanium, etc.
- a carbon steel plate or the like is preferably used. The reason why these mild steel sheets are used is that the ironing process for manufacturing the battery case can be easily performed in the subsequent processing operation.
- the thickness of the mild steel sheet used is about 0.10 mm to 0.40 mm
- Z5 "Further, as the electrolytic plating there are known baths such as a bath, a sulfamic acid bath, and a borofluoride bath, and any plating bath can be used.
- the surface may be matte, semi-glossy or glossy.
- the thickness of the nickel plating is preferably about 1 to 10 m. The reason for applying the nickel plating is to improve the adhesion of the bismuth plating applied thereon, so that the thickness of the nickel plating is 10 m or less is sufficient. On the other hand, if the thickness is less than 1, the diffusion layer formed by the subsequent heat treatment becomes difficult, so that 1 ⁇ m or more is necessary.
- heat treatment may be performed to form an iron-nickel diffusion layer.
- the purpose of the heat treatment for forming the iron-nickel diffusion layer is to prevent the surface treatment layer formed on the steel sheet from being easily separated from the case at the time of forming the battery case later.
- the heat treatment is preferably performed under a non-oxidizing or reducing protective gas from the viewpoint of preventing oxide film formation.
- a non-oxidizing gas a so-called inert gas such as nitrogen, argon, or neon is preferably used.
- the reducing gas hydrogen, ammonia gas and the like are preferably used.
- the heat treatment temperature is preferably at least 300 ° C., and the treatment time is preferably from about 30 seconds to about 10 hours.
- Such heat treatment conditions are also affected by the type of steel sheet. For example, when using an ultra-low carbon steel sheet having a carbon content of 0.003 wt% or less, it is desirable to perform the treatment at a high temperature for a short time because the recrystallization temperature of the steel base is high.
- Bismuth is applied on the nickel plating or iron-nickel diffusion layer.
- Bismuth plating can be performed in any known plating bath such as a perchloric acid bath, a pyrophosphoric acid bath, a citric acid bath, a metasulfonic acid bath, and a chloride bath.
- baths containing organic substances often require strict bath management and have the problem of being expensive, but as long as the plating film is kept extremely thin as in the present invention, The drawbacks mentioned above are not very problematic.
- the composition of the bath should be simple, and it is necessary to provide a polarity cycle that uses the cathode for 10.5 seconds and then the anode for 5 seconds. If nickel strike plating is applied, the nickel layer will dissolve when the body is immersed in the bath and the body will be immersed during the anode cycle. It is necessary to keep in mind that there are problems such as the necessity of a complicated process.
- methanesulfonic acid bath is to use what final by dissolving bismuth oxide methanesulfonic acid (0 to B i 3 + is set to be 2 defined as and the free acid concentration at 20 GZL as the basic bath composition It is desirable to use a dispersant and a brightener selectively.
- the reason for using the brightener is that the use of the brightener can prevent the plated surface from becoming powdery. By adding the brightener, the cathode potential shifts to the hydrogen generation potential, the crystal structure on the plated surface can be refined, and the appearance of the plated surface can be improved.
- the composition of the brightener is 10 to 1.5 parts by volume with respect to 1 part by weight of the dispersant.
- the working temperature of this bath is preferably 20 to 25, and the current density is preferably in the range of 2 to 5 AZdm2.

- a draw forming method a DI (draningan) dignite forming method, a DTR (dranginthinin adndredaw) forming method, or the like.
- the method of forming the battery case is not limited to the above method, and other methods can be applied.
- the positive electrode mixture contained in the alkaline manganese dry battery is prepared by mixing manganese dioxide, carbon powder, an alkaline aqueous solution, and the like. Since manganese dioxide is a source of oxidizing components, it is desirable to use manganese dioxide with high activity and high purity. Therefore, it is preferable that Mn_ ⁇ 2 uses 91% or more electrolytic manganese dioxide.
- the properties required for carbon powder are high purity and chemical stability, and good conductivity, mixability and liquid retention. Examples of carbon powders that meet these requirements include acetylene black, various types of modified carbon black, graphitized carbon black, and synthetic graphite powder. In recent years, synthetic graphite powder has been used exclusively.

- a mixture of graphite powder, a thermosetting resin, and an organic solvent such as methyl ethyl ketone is sprayed on the inner surface of the battery case. It is also preferably applied that the composition is applied by the above method and dried.
- the positive electrode mixture is press-pressed in a mold to form a donut-shaped positive electrode mixture pellet, which is inserted and crimped inside the battery. Also, in order to mount the negative electrode plate with the negative electrode current collector rod spot-welded in the battery case, a predetermined position below the opening end of the battery case is net-in processed.
