Abstract
Description
この要求に応えるための一つの方策として、電極合材層と集電体との間に導電性炭素材料を含むアンダーコート層を配置して、それらの接触界面の抵抗を下げることが提案されている(特許文献1,2参照)が、アンダーコート層の単位面積あたりの重量(目付量)が大きいと、電池が重くなり、また大型化するという問題がある。

なお、固形分とは、組成物を構成する溶媒以外の成分の総量である。
したがって、本発明の組成物から得られる薄膜は、エネルギー貯蔵デバイスの電極を構成する集電基板と電極合剤層との間に介在し、両者を結着させる結着層に特に適している。
また、本発明の組成物から得られる薄膜は、導電性炭素材料を含まないにもかかわらず、集電基板と電極合剤層との間の導電性にも影響を与えることがないため、本発明の薄膜は、導電性炭素材料を含む従来のアンダーコート層と同様の機能層として用いることができる。
なお、エネルギー貯蔵デバイスとしては、電気二重層キャパシタ、リチウム二次電池、リチウムイオン二次電池、プロトンポリマー電池、ニッケル水素電池、アルミ固体コンデンサ、電解コンデンサ、鉛蓄電池等の各種エネルギー貯蔵デバイスが挙げられるが、本発明の導電性薄膜用組成物から得られる導電性薄膜は、特に、電気二重層キャパシタ、リチウムイオン二次電池の電極に好適に適用することができる。
この複合集電体は、集電体上に、上述した組成物を塗布し、これを自然または加熱乾燥し、薄膜を形成して作製することができる。
集電体は、従来、エネルギー貯蔵デバイス用電極の集電体として用いられているものを使用することができる。例えば、銅、アルミニウム、チタン、ステンレス、ニッケル、金、銀およびこれらの合金や、カーボン材料、金属酸化物、導電性高分子等を用いることができるが、超音波溶接等の溶接を適用して電極構造体を作製する場合、銅、アルミニウム、チタン、ステンレスまたはこれらの合金からなる金属箔を用いることが好ましい。
集電体の厚みは特に限定されないが、本発明においては、1~100μmが好ましい。
また、薄膜の厚みも、特に限定されるものではないが、内部抵抗を低減することを考慮すると、1nm~10μmが好ましく、1nm~1μmがより好ましく、1~500nmがより一層好ましい。
薄膜の膜厚は、公知の方法で調整することができる。例えば、塗布により薄膜を形成する場合、組成物の固形分濃度、塗布回数、塗工機の塗工液投入口のクリアランスなどを変えることで調整できる。
膜厚を厚くしたい場合は、固形分濃度を高くしたり、塗布回数を増やしたり、クリアランスを大きくしたりする。膜厚を薄くしたい場合は、固形分濃度を低くしたり、塗布回数を減らしたり、クリアランスを小さくしたりする。
加熱乾燥する場合の温度も任意であるが、50~200℃程度が好ましく、80~150℃程度がより好ましい。
ここで、活物質としては、従来、エネルギー貯蔵デバイス用電極に用いられている各種活物質を用いることができる。
例えば、リチウム二次電池やリチウムイオン二次電池の場合、正極活物質としてリチウムイオンを吸着・離脱可能なカルコゲン化合物またはリチウムイオン含有カルコゲン化合物、ポリアニオン系化合物、硫黄単体およびその化合物等を用いることができる。

同じく窒化物としては、リチウム含有遷移金属窒化物が挙げられ、具体的には、LixMyN(M=Co、Ni、Cu、0≦x≦3、0≦y≦0.5)、リチウム鉄窒化物(Li3FeN4)等が挙げられる。
リチウムイオンを可逆的に吸蔵・放出可能な炭素材料としては、グラファイト、カーボンブラック、コークス、ガラス状炭素、炭素繊維、カーボンナノチューブ、またはこれらの焼結体等が挙げられる。
この炭素質材料としては、活性炭等が挙げられ、例えば、フェノール樹脂を炭化後、賦活処理して得られた活性炭が挙げられる。
なお、バインダーポリマーの添加量は、活物質100質量部に対して、0.1~20質量部、特に、1~10質量部が好ましい。
溶媒としては、上記組成物用の溶媒で例示した溶媒が挙げられ、それらの中からバインダーの種類に応じて適宜選択すればよいが、PVdF等の非水溶性のバインダーの場合はNMPが好適であり、PAA等の水溶性のバインダーの場合は水が好適である。
また、加熱乾燥する場合の温度も任意であるが、50~400℃程度が好ましく、80~150℃程度がより好ましい。
このエネルギー貯蔵デバイスは、電極として上述したエネルギー貯蔵デバイス用電極を用いることにその特徴があるため、その他のデバイス構成部材であるセパレータや、電解質などは、公知の材料から適宜選択して用いることができる。
セパレータとしては、例えば、セルロース系セパレータ、ポリオレフィン系セパレータ等が挙げられる。
電解質としては、液体、固体のいずれでもよく、また水系、非水系のいずれでもよいが、本発明のエネルギー貯蔵デバイス用電極は、非水系電解質を用いたデバイスに適用した場合にも実用上十分な性能を発揮させ得る。
電解質塩としては、4フッ化硼酸リチウム、6フッ化リン酸リチウム、過塩素酸リチウム、トリフルオロメタンスルホン酸リチウム等のリチウム塩;テトラメチルアンモニウムヘキサフルオロホスフェート、テトラエチルアンモニウムヘキサフルオロホスフェート、テトラプロピルアンモニウムヘキサフルオロホスフェート、メチルトリエチルアンモニウムヘキサフルオロホスフェート、テトラエチルアンモニウムテトラフルオロボレート、テトラエチルアンモニウムパークロレート等の4級アンモニウム塩、リチウムビス(トリフルオロメタンスルホニル)イミド、リチウムビス(フルオロスルホニル)イミド等のリチウムイミドなどが挙げられる。

コイン型に適用する場合、上述した本発明のエネルギー貯蔵デバイス用電極を、所定の円盤状に打ち抜いて用いればよい。
例えば、リチウムイオン二次電池は、コインセルのワッシャーとスペーサーが溶接されたフタに、一方の電極を設置し、その上に、電解液を含浸させた同形状のセパレータを重ね、さらに上から、電極合材層を下にして本発明のエネルギー貯蔵デバイス用電極を重ね、ケースとガスケットを載せて、コインセルかしめ機で密封して作製することができる。
この場合、電極構造体を構成する電極は一枚でも複数枚でもよいが、一般的には、正負極とも複数枚が用いられる。
正極を形成するための複数枚の電極は、負極を形成するための複数枚の電極と、一枚ずつ交互に重ねることが好ましく、その際、正極と負極の間には上述したセパレータを介在させることが好ましい。
金属タブは、複数枚の電極の最も外側の電極の溶接部で溶接しても、複数枚の電極のうち、任意の隣接する2枚の電極の溶接部間に金属タブを挟んで溶接してもよい。
金属タブの形状は、箔状が好ましく、その厚さは0.05~1mm程度が好ましい。
超音波溶接の手法としては、例えば、複数枚の電極をアンビルとホーンとの間に配置し、溶接部に金属タブを配置して超音波をかけて一括して溶接する手法や、電極同士を先に溶接し、その後、金属タブを溶接する手法などが挙げられる。
本発明では、いずれの手法でも、金属タブと電極とが上記溶接部で溶接されるだけでなく、複数枚の電極同士も互いに超音波溶接されることになる。
溶接時の圧力、周波数、出力、処理時間等は、特に限定されるものではなく、用いる材料やアンダーコート層の有無、目付量などを考慮して適宜設定すればよい。
以上のようにして作製した電極構造体を、ラミネートパックに収納し、上述した電解液を注入した後、ヒートシールすることでラミネートセルが得られる。
