Definitions
- the present invention relates to a binder for a non-aqueous secondary battery electrode and a slurry for a non-aqueous secondary battery electrode.
- the present application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2020-098514 filed in Japan on June 5, 2020, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.
- non-aqueous secondary battery A secondary battery using a non-aqueous electrolyte (non-aqueous secondary battery) is superior to a secondary battery using an aqueous electrolyte in terms of high voltage, miniaturization, and weight reduction. Therefore, non-aqueous secondary batteries are widely used as power sources for notebook computers, mobile phones, power tools, and electronic / communication devices. Recently, non-aqueous batteries have been used for electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles from the viewpoint of application to environmental vehicles, but there is a strong demand for higher output, higher capacity, longer life, and the like. As a non-aqueous secondary battery, a lithium ion secondary battery is a typical example.
- Non-aqueous secondary batteries include a positive electrode using a metal oxide as an active material, a negative electrode using a carbon material such as graphite as an active material, and a non-aqueous electrolyte solvent mainly composed of carbonates or flame-retardant ionic liquids.
- a non-aqueous secondary battery is a secondary battery in which ions move between a positive electrode and a negative electrode to charge and discharge the battery.
- the positive electrode is obtained by applying a slurry composed of a metal oxide and a binder to the surface of a positive electrode current collector such as an aluminum foil, drying the slurry, and then cutting the slurry into an appropriate size.
- the negative electrode is obtained by applying a slurry composed of a carbon material and a binder to the surface of a negative electrode current collector such as a copper foil, drying the slurry, and then cutting the slurry into an appropriate size.
- the binder has a role of binding the active materials to each other and the active material and the current collector at the positive electrode and the negative electrode, and prevents the active material from peeling off from the current collector.
- PVDF polyvinylidene fluoride
- NMP N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone
- aqueous dispersion binder As a method to solve these problems, the development of an aqueous dispersion binder is underway.
- a water dispersion type binder for example, a styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) type water dispersion used in combination as a carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) thickener is known.
- SBR styrene-butadiene rubber
- CMC carboxymethyl cellulose
- Patent Document 1 discloses a pressure-sensitive adhesive composition for a patch containing a sodium acrylate-N-vinylacetamide copolymer. Further, Patent Document 2 discloses a composition for a hydrogel containing a sodium acrylate-N-vinylacetamide (55/45 (molar ratio)) copolymer.
- Patent Document 4 a copolymer for a binder for a non-aqueous battery electrode containing a structural unit derived from N-vinylacetamide, a structural unit derived from sodium (meth) acrylate, and a structural unit derived from methoxypolyethylene glycol methacrylate is described. Has been described.
- the SBR-based binder described in Patent Document 1 needs to be used in combination with carboxymethyl cellulose, which is a thickener, and the slurry preparation process is complicated. Moreover, even in this binder, the binding property between the active materials and the active material and the current collector is insufficient, and when the electrode is produced with a small amount of the binder, a part of the active material is separated in the process of cutting the current collector. There was a problem of peeling.
- the sodium acrylate-N-vinylacetamide copolymer disclosed in Patent Documents 1 and 2 contains a large amount of components derived from N-vinylacetamide. When such a polymer is mixed with a negative electrode active material and water to form an electrode slurry, agglomerates are likely to be generated in the slurry.
- the binder for non-aqueous battery electrodes disclosed in Patent Document 3 has a problem that cracks are likely to occur in an electrode having a thick film thickness, that is, a large basis weight, as shown in Comparative Example 1 described later. rice field.
- the binder for non-aqueous battery electrodes described in Patent Document 4 has room for improvement in the peel strength of the electrode active material layer with respect to the current collector, as shown in Comparative Example 2 described later.
- the present invention is a binder for a non-aqueous secondary battery electrode that can greatly improve the peeling strength of the electrode active material layer with respect to the current collector while suppressing the generation of cracks in the electrode active material layer formed on the current collector.
- An object of the present invention is to provide a slurry for a non-aqueous secondary battery electrode.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a non-aqueous secondary battery electrode having few cracks and high peel strength of the electrode active material layer with respect to the current collector.
- the present invention is as follows [1] to [14].

本実施形態にかかる非水系二次電池電極用バインダー(または、非水系二次電池電極バインダー。以下、「電極バインダー」とすることがある)は、以下に説明する共重合体(P)を含む。電極バインダーは、その他の成分を含んでもよく、例えば、共重合体(P)以外の重合体、界面活性剤等を含んでもよい。
単量体(A)は、以下の式(1)で表される化合物である。単量体(A)は、式(1)で表される複数の種類の化合物を含んでいてもよい。
単量体(B)は、(メタ)アクリル酸及びその塩からなる群から選択される少なくとも1種からなる。(メタ)アクリル酸塩は、(メタ)アクリル酸と1価のカチオンとの塩からなることが好ましく、(メタ)アクリル酸ナトリウム、(メタ)アクリル酸カリウム、(メタ)アクリル酸アンモニウムから選ばれる少なくとも1種を含むことが好ましい。その中でも、(メタ)アクリル酸ナトリウム、(メタ)アクリル酸アンモニウムのうち好かなくとも一方を含むことがより好ましく、アクリル酸ナトリウムであることが最も好ましい。(メタ)アクリル酸塩は、例えば、(メタ)アクリル酸を水酸化物、及びアンモニア水等で中和して得られるが、中でも入手容易性の点から、水酸化ナトリウムで中和することが好ましい。
単量体(C)は、芳香族アルコールのエチレン性不飽和カルボン酸エステル化合物である。単量体(C)は、1種類の化合物のみを含んでもよく、2種類以上の化合物を含んでもよい。単量体(C)は、芳香族アルコールの(メタ)アクリル酸エステル(芳香族アルコールの(メタ)アクリレート)を含むことが好ましく、芳香族アルコールの(メタ)アクリル酸エステル(芳香族アルコールの(メタ)アクリレート)からなることがより好ましい。
