Description

电极极片及包含其的二次电池 技术领域
本申请涉及电池技术领域,具体地涉及电极极片及包含其的二次电池、电池模块、电池包和用电装置。
背景技术
近年来,随着人们对清洁能源需求的日益递增,二次电池已广泛应用于水力、火力、风力和太阳能电站等储能电源系统,以及电动工具、交通工具、军用设备、航空航天等多个领域。由于二次电池的应用领域得到了极大的扩展,因此对其性能也提出了更高的要求。
在二次电池中,隔离膜起到隔离正负极并允许锂离子传导的作用,是电池重要的构成部分。目前,市售二次电池中采用的主要是具有微孔结构的聚烯烃类隔离膜材料,如聚乙烯(PE)、聚丙烯(PP)的单层或多层膜。聚烯烃隔离膜可以提供用于二次电池的足够的机械强度和化学稳定性,但是在高温条件下则表现出较大的热收缩性。这样的热收缩导致正负极接触及短路,从而引发起火、燃烧甚至爆炸等安全事故。
为此,已经报道了采用无机陶瓷粉体对二次电池聚烯烃类隔离膜进行陶瓷化涂布改性的技术,即利用陶瓷较好的高温热稳定性提高隔离膜的热稳定性能。此外,利用陶瓷材料较好的电解液可润湿性,还可以改善诸如循环性能和放电效率等的电池性能。进一步地,已经报道了采用诸如陶瓷材料的无机隔离层作为隔离膜替换常规使用的聚烯烃类隔离膜的技术。但是,在这样的无机隔离层中,因为无机颗粒的密集堆积而容易堵塞无机隔离层中由无机颗粒之间的间隙形成的缝隙。这会降低无机隔离层的电解液的吸收率,并且由于导离子通道的堵塞而会降低电池动力学能力。而且,这样的无机隔离层的厚度虽然可以调控,但是其总体的质量仍然不可忽视,由此会严重降低电池的质量能量密度。
发明内容
技术问题
为了改善诸如质量能量密度降低的上述问题,已经提出了对无机隔离层进行造孔的技 术。但是,如何造出适合于电池应用的孔隙是一个亟需解决的问题。现有技术报道的是通过将蚀刻牺牲相或烧蚀牺牲相(在烧结时消失的物质)添加到无机隔离层中来进行造孔。但是,这样的造孔方式容易造成引入新的杂质或者在造孔过程中需要耗费大量的能量(例如,在通过烧结造孔时,烧结温度可高达例如700℃以上)的问题,并且高温环境对电极活性物质层中包含的各成分如粘结剂和添加剂等可能会造成不利影响。
本申请的发明人通过深入的研究发现,可以通过在要进行造孔的层中添加能在常规加热时产生气体的物质(例如,加热时分解的物质)进行造孔。在这样的造孔过程中,产生的气体会在逸出过程中并合成大的气泡,并且所述气泡在通过无机颗粒之间的间隙逸出的过程中会将间隙两侧的无机颗粒挤开而形成楔形孔道。由此能形成锂离子穿透的通道,从而提高无机隔离层的离子传导性。然而,本申请的发明人通过进一步研究发现,该孔道的形状及大小不容易控制。因此,所形成的各个孔道的形状及大小不均一,这容易导致无机隔离层机械性能不均一,从而容易在例如压制或卷绕电极极片时造成裂纹等缺陷,由此容易造成电极安全性和容量的降低。另外,在为了提高质量能量密度而将无机隔离层厚度制备为较薄的情况下,上述具有楔形孔道的无机隔离层由于孔道的一端开口较大而导致电池容易发生自放电,并且也更有可能发生短路。
技术方案

如果没有特别的说明,本申请的所有技术特征以及可选技术特征可以相互组合而形成新的技术方案。
以下对本申请的电极极片及包含其的二次电池、电池模块、电池包和用电装置进行详细说明。
本申请的第一实施方式可以提供一种电极极片(请参照图7),所述电极极片6包括集流体7和设置在所述集流体7的至少一个表面上的活性材料层8,
所述活性材料层8上依次形成有第一无机隔离层9和第二无机隔离层10,
所述第一无机隔离层9包含多个孔道11并且所述孔道11的孔径为300nm~600nm,
所述多个孔道11各自从所述第一无机隔离层9朝向所述第二无机隔离层10延伸并贯穿所述第二无机隔离层10,并且
所述第二无机隔离层10中的孔道11的孔径是均一的。
在本实施方式中,通过使用无机隔离层作为隔离膜替代常规的聚合物如聚丙烯隔离膜,可以大幅降低电池的制造成本(众所周知,作为电池用隔离膜的聚合物如聚乙烯膜和聚丙 烯膜的成本显著大于无机隔离层的成本)。与使用未造孔的无机隔离层作为隔离膜的技术相比,本实施方式通过在无机隔离层中形成贯穿孔道而可以显著地提高电池的质量能量密度,并且显著地提高无机隔离层的离子传导性,从而显著降低电池的阻抗。
此外,当通过在作为隔离膜的单层无机隔离层中添加造孔剂进行造孔时,在造孔过程中,产生的气体会在逸出过程中并合成大的气泡,并且所述气泡在通过无机颗粒之间的间隙逸出的过程中会将间隙两侧的无机颗粒挤开而形成楔形孔道(请参照图8)。如上所述,这样的孔道的形状及大小不容易控制,因此所形成的各个孔道的形状及大小不均一,这容易导致无机隔离层机械性能不均一,从而容易在例如压制或卷绕电极极片时造成裂纹等缺陷。由此,容易造成电极安全性和容量的降低。另外,如上所述,上述具有楔形孔道的无机隔离层由于孔道的一端开口较大而导致电池容易发生自放电,并且也更有可能发生短路。
相比之下,如下文中所详细描述地,本申请发明通过在第一无机隔离层中添加造孔剂进行造孔,并利用造孔剂产生的气体在第一无机隔离层和第二无机隔离层中形成孔径较为均一的贯穿孔道(孔径为300nm~600nm),可以显著地提高电池的质量能量密度,并且显著地提高无机隔离层的离子传导性,从而显著降低电池的阻抗。在本申请中,如下文所述的,由于在电极极片的制造过程中在第二无机隔离层中不包含造孔剂,因此在该层中不会发生气泡的并合,第二无机隔离层中的孔道的孔径是均一的。在本申请中,所述孔道的孔径是均一的是指所述孔道各自的孔径在贯穿方向上不发生大的变化(即形成的是非楔形孔道)。具体地,所述孔道的孔径是均一的是指:在贯穿方向上,所述孔道各自的孔径的最大值为最小值的1.3倍以下。
在不添加造孔剂的情况下,无机隔离层中由无机颗粒之间的间隙形成的孔道的直径通常均小于300nm(200nm左右)。相比之下,在本申请发明中,通过添加造孔剂形成的孔道的孔径为300nm以上,并且所述孔道贯穿第一无机隔离层和第二无机隔离层,由此可以通过降低无机隔离层的质量而显著地提高电池的质量能量密度,并且通过具有较大孔径的贯穿孔道而显著地提高无机隔离层的离子传导性,从而显著降低电池的阻抗。此外,如下文中所详细描述地,通过选择造孔剂的种类和控制造孔条件(例如造孔工序中的加热温度)并且仅在第一无机隔离层中添加造孔剂(以防止造孔剂在整体无机隔离层中产生气体并所述气体在逸出过程中并合成大的气泡),可以将贯穿孔道的孔径控制为600nm以下。通过 将贯穿孔道的孔径控制为600nm以下,可以防止由于孔径较大而导致的电池容易发生自放电甚至是发生短路的问题。可选地,所述孔道11的孔径为300nm~550nm,350nm~500nm,300nm~450nm,300nm~4000nm,或350nm~400nm。
在本申请发明中,术语“贯穿”是指孔道将无机隔离层的两个主表面连通,并且孔道的路径可以为直线型也可以为曲线型。术语“贯穿”不包括通过楔形孔道将无机隔离层的两个主表面连通的情形。无机隔离层中的这些贯穿孔道既能够减少单位体积的无机隔离层的质量从而提高电池的质量能量密度,又能够为活性离子提供移动路径,从而显著提高作为隔离膜的无机隔离层的离子传导性。
从改善电池的质量能量密度和确保绝缘性的观点考虑,所述第一无机隔离层和所述第二无机隔离层的厚度之和可以为7μm~30μm。可选地,所述第一无机隔离层和所述第二无机隔离层的厚度之和可以为8μm~25μm,9μm~23μm,10μm~20μm,12μm~18μm或15μm~20μm。
当所述第一无机隔离层和所述第二无机隔离层的厚度之和为7μm以上时,可以更好地确保作为隔离膜的无机隔离层的绝缘性,并且能够显著地降低无机隔离层的质量,从而提高电池的质量能量密度。当所述第一无机隔离层和所述第二无机隔离层的厚度之和为30μm以下时,无机隔离层可以在不降低电池的质量能量密度的条件下起到隔离正负电极的隔离膜的作用。因此,本实施方式的所述第一无机隔离层和所述第二无机隔离层的厚度之和可以在上述范围内,由此可以在确保绝缘性的条件下显著地改善电池的质量能量密度。
从容易形成各自从所述第一无机隔离层朝向所述第二无机隔离层延伸并贯穿所述第二无机隔离层且具有300nm~600nm的较为均一的孔径的多个孔道的观点考虑,所述第一无机隔离层的厚度可以为2μm~10μm。可选地,所述第一无机隔离层的厚度可以为2μm~9μm,3μm~8μm,4μm~7μm,3μm~5μm,4μm~6μm或5μm~10μm。
当第一无机隔离层的厚度小于2μm时,由于需要涂布得非常薄,因此实际上在工艺上难以实现。此外,当第一无机隔离层的厚度小于2μm时,不易在该层中均匀地添加造孔剂,并且在造孔阶段不易形成能够穿过第二无机隔离层的气泡,由此不易形成各自从第一无机 隔离层朝向第二无机隔离层延伸并贯穿第二无机隔离层且具有300nm~600nm的较为均一的孔径的多个孔道。相反地,当第一无机隔离层的厚度大于10μm时,由于含有造孔剂的无机隔离层的厚度相对较大,因此在造孔阶段产生的气体容易在该层中并合成大的气泡,从而容易在第一无机隔离层中形成楔形孔道并且在第二无机隔离层中形成的孔道的直径相对较大。因此,容易导致诸如无机隔离层的机械性能不均一、电池容易发生自放电甚至是短路的问题。因此,本实施方式的所述第一无机隔离层的厚度可以在上述范围内,由此容易形成各自从所述第一无机隔离层朝向所述第二无机隔离层延伸并贯穿所述第二无机隔离层且具有300nm~600nm的较为均一的孔径的多个孔道。因此,包含本实施方式的电极极片的二次电池可以具有优异的质量能量密度以及低的自放电率和阻抗。
从提高电池的质量能量密度、确保绝缘性和优异的机械性能的观点考虑,所述第一无机隔离层和所述第二无机隔离层的孔隙率可以各自为40%~55%。
现有技术报道的未进行造孔的无机隔离层的孔隙率为35%左右。因此,在本申请发明中,通过造孔在无机隔离层中形成微细的贯穿孔道以将无机隔离层中的孔隙率提高至40%以上,可以提高电池的质量能量密度,并且改善无机隔离层的离子传导性,从而显著降低电池的阻抗。另一方面,通过将无机隔离层中的孔隙率控制为55%以下,可以确保作为隔离膜的无机隔离层具有优异的机械强度并且能够确保绝缘性。因此,本实施方式的第一无机隔离层和第二无机隔离层的孔隙率可以在上述范围内,由此可以提高电池的质量能量密度、确保绝缘性和优异的机械性能。
在本申请中,由于第一无机隔离层的厚度非常薄,并且实质上两层无机隔离层的总厚度也较薄,所以难以分别测定两个无机隔离层各自的孔隙率,因此本申请中的所述第一无机隔离层和所述第二无机隔离层的孔隙率指的是两层无机隔离层的孔隙率。
从改善电池的自放电率和阻抗的观点考虑,所述第一无机隔离层和所述第二无机隔离层各自可以包括无机颗粒和粘结剂。
从改善电极极片的机械性能和绝缘性的观点考虑,所述第一无机隔离层可以包括90重量%~95重量%的无机颗粒和5重量%~10重量%的粘结剂;并且所述第二无机隔离层可 以包括95重量%~98重量%的无机颗粒和2重量%~5重量%的粘结剂。
在本申请发明中,由于在第一无机隔离层中包含造孔剂,因此为了避免因为造孔阶段的造孔损害无机隔离层的机械性能,第一无机隔离层可以包括5重量%~10重量%的较多量的粘结剂。相比之下,由于第二无机隔离层中不包含造孔剂,因此在造孔阶段该层中不会出现由于造孔剂的消失而产生的空位。因此,在第二无机隔离层中可以包括2重量%~5重量%的较少量的粘结剂。在无机隔离层中包含上述含量范围内的无机颗粒,可以改善电极极片的机械性能和绝缘性。因此,本实施方式的第一无机隔离层和第二无机隔离层的无机颗粒和粘结剂的含量各自可以在上述范围内,由此可以改善电极极片的机械性能和绝缘性。
此外,在本申请中,根据实际需要,所述第一无机隔离层和所述第二无机隔离层还可以包含其它成分如纤维类材料等以改善无机隔离层的机械性能等性能。
从提高电池的质量能量密度和改善电极极片的离子传导性的观点考虑,所述无机颗粒的体积中值粒径Dv50可以为30nm~500nm。
在本申请中,无机颗粒的体积中值粒径Dv50可以参照标准GB/T 19077.1-2016、使用激光粒度分析仪(如Malvern Master Size 3000)进行测定。其中,Dv50的物理定义如下:Dv50:无机颗粒累计体积分布百分数达到50%时所对应的粒径。
当无机颗粒的体积中值粒径Dv50小于30nm时,无机隔离层中的无机颗粒容易密集堆积,从而容易堵塞无机隔离层中的孔道。因此,当无机颗粒的体积中值粒径Dv50小于30nm时,电极极片的离子传导性可能较差。另一方面,当无机颗粒的体积中值粒径Dv50大于500nm时,无机隔离层中的无机颗粒之间的间隙较大,不容易形成具有300nm~600nm的较为均一的孔径的多个微细的孔道。由此,可能无法改善电池的质量能量密度和改善电极极片的离子传导性。因此,本实施方式的所述无机颗粒的体积中值粒径Dv50可以在上述范围内,由此可以改善电池的质量能量密度和改善电极极片的离子传导性(从而降低电极极片的阻抗)。
在本实施方式中,所述无机颗粒可以包括选自由氧化硅、氧化铝、勃姆石、氧化镁、氧化钛、氧化锌、氧化铝镁构成的组中的至少一种。可选地,所述无机颗粒可以包括选自勃姆石和氧化铝镁构成的组中的至少一种。
在本实施方式中,所述粘结剂可以包括选自由羧甲基纤维素、聚偏二氟乙烯、丁苯橡胶、聚酰亚胺、聚乙烯、聚偏二氟乙烯-六氟丙烯共聚物构成的组中的至少一种。可选地,所述粘结剂可以包括选自羧甲基纤维素、聚偏二氟乙烯和丁苯橡胶构成的组中的至少一种。
在本实施方式中,对所述电极极片的种类没有特别限制。例如,所述电极极片可以为正极极片或负极极片。
本申请的第二实施方式可以提供一种二次电池,所述二次电池包括上述实施方式的电极极片。所述二次电池具有优异的质量能量密度以及低的自放电率和阻抗。
以下对本申请的电极极片的制造方法进行详细说明。

所述造孔剂的造孔温度依据造孔剂种类的不同而不同。例如,在采用碳酸氢铵作为造孔剂的情况下,上述造孔温度是指碳酸氢铵开始分解的温度。碳酸氢铵在35℃上开始缓慢分解,并且在60℃时完全分解。因此,在采用碳酸氢铵作为造孔剂的情况下,步骤(c)中的热处理温度应该低于碳酸氢铵开始分解的温度,即低于35℃。在步骤(c)中进行热处理的目的是为了在部分干燥的第一无机隔离层上涂布用于形成第二无机隔离层的浆料以避免两种浆料的混合。但是,如果将第一无机隔离层基本上完全干燥(例如,干燥除去大于60重量%的第一分散剂),则在造孔阶段产生的气体将难以或者无法通过在第一无机隔离层中挤开无机颗粒而形成孔道。相反地,如果仅除去小于30重量%的第一分散剂,则在步骤(d)中在第一无机隔离层上涂布用于形成第二无机隔离层的浆料时易于将两种浆料混合。因此,在步骤(c)中,通过热处理除去30重量%~60重量%的第一分散剂以实现第一无机隔离层的部分干燥。
在步骤(d)中,在第一无机隔离层上涂布用于形成第二无机隔离层的浆料的方法没有 特别限制,可以采用本领域常用的涂布方法。例如,可以采用如下方法进行涂布:将用于形成第二无机隔离层的浆料通过挤压喷涂均匀的涂布在第一无机隔离层的表面上。此外,所述涂布方法还可以包括上述的各种涂布方法。
在步骤(e)中,在所述造孔剂的造孔温度下对在步骤(d)之后得到的产物进行热处理,由此通过造孔剂对第一无机隔离层和第二无机隔离层进行造孔。所述造孔剂的造孔温度是指所述造孔剂能够通过热分解等而在无机隔离层中制造孔道的温度区间(例如,在使用碳酸氢铵作为造孔剂的情况下,造孔温度为40℃~60℃)。上述热处理可以是分步热处理。例如,在采用碳酸氢铵作为造孔剂的情况下,可以首先在40℃~50℃下对在步骤(d)之后得到的产物进行热处理以使碳酸氢铵缓慢分解,以使得产生的气泡不会在第一无机隔离层中大量聚集而形成大的气泡并且避免气泡在逸出过程中在第一无机隔离层中形成楔形孔道或大直径的孔道。然后,在70℃~80℃下进行热处理,以使碳酸氢铵彻底分解并使气泡快速贯穿无机隔离层。通过选择造孔剂的种类并根据造孔剂的种类合理地调节步骤(e)中进行热处理的温度,可以使得产生的气体在不并合为大的气泡的情况下沿着第一无机隔离层和第二无机隔离层中的间隙逸出,同时在依次穿过第一无机隔离层和第二无机隔离层时将间隙两侧的无机颗粒挤开而在所述无机隔离层中形成孔径为300nm~600nm的微细孔道。所述孔道从第一无机隔离层朝向第二无机隔离层延伸并贯穿第二无机隔离层,并且所述第二无机隔离层中的孔道的孔径是均一的。
在本申请的电极极片的制备方法中,由于仅在第一无机隔离层中添加造孔剂并且通过选择造孔剂的种类并根据造孔剂的种类合理地调节步骤(e)中进行热处理的温度,因此可以避免形成在单层无机隔离层中添加造孔剂时出现的楔形孔道,并且能够形成各自从所述第一无机隔离层朝向所述第二无机隔离层延伸并贯穿所述第二无机隔离层且具有300nm~600nm的较为均一的孔径的多个孔道。因此,包含本实施方式的电极极片的二次电池可以具有优异的质量能量密度以及低的自放电率和阻抗。
从易于制造本实施方式的包含所述第一无机隔离层和所述第二无机隔离层的电极极片的观点考虑,所述用于形成第一无机隔离层的浆料中的所述第一无机颗粒、所述第一粘结剂、所述第一分散剂和所述造孔剂的含量各自可以为35重量%~45重量%,1重量%~4重量%,45重量%~55重量%,5重量%~10重量%,并且
所述用于形成第二无机隔离层的浆料中的所述第二无机颗粒、所述第二粘结剂和所述第二分散剂的含量各自可以为40重量%~55重量%,1重量%~5重量%,40重量%~55重量%。

从进一步提高电池的质量能量密度的观点考虑,所述电极极片的制备方法还可以包括在步骤(a)和/或步骤(e)之后进行压制的步骤。通过对活性材料层或者无机隔离层进行压制,可以减小电极极片的体积,从而增加电池的质量能量密度。
如上所述,从改善电池的质量能量密度和确保绝缘性的观点考虑,所述第一无机隔离层和所述第二无机隔离层的厚度之和可以为7μm~30μm。可选地,所述第一无机隔离层和所述第二无机隔离层的厚度之和可以为8μm~25μm,9μm~23μm,10μm~20μm,12μm~18μm或15μm~20μm。在步骤(a)和/或步骤(e)之后进行了压制的步骤的情况下,所述第一无机隔离层和所述第二无机隔离层的厚度之和是指压制后的厚度之和。
如上所述,本实施方式的所述第一无机隔离层和所述第二无机隔离层的厚度之和可以在上述范围内,由此可以在确保绝缘性的条件下显著地改善电池的质量能量密度。
如上所述,从容易形成各自从所述第一无机隔离层朝向所述第二无机隔离层延伸并贯穿所述第二无机隔离层且具有300nm~600nm的较为均一的孔径的多个孔道的观点考虑,所述第一无机隔离层的厚度可以为2μm~10μm。可选地,所述第一无机隔离层的厚度可以为2μm~9μm,3μm~8μm,4μm~7μm,3μm~5μm,4μm~6μm或5μm~10μm。
如上所述,本实施方式的所述第一无机隔离层的厚度可以在上述范围内,由此容易形成各自从所述第一无机隔离层朝向所述第二无机隔离层延伸并贯穿所述第二无机隔离层且具有300nm~600nm的较为均一的孔径的多个孔道。因此,包含本实施方式的电极极片的二次电池可以具有优异的质量能量密度以及低的自放电率和阻抗。
如上所述,从提高电池的质量能量密度、确保绝缘性和优异的机械性能的观点考虑,所述第一无机隔离层和所述第二无机隔离层的孔隙率可以各自为40%~55%。
如上所述,本实施方式的第一无机隔离层和第二无机隔离层的孔隙率可以在上述范围内,由此可以提高电池的质量能量密度、确保绝缘性和优异的机械性能。
如上所述,从提高电池的质量能量密度和改善电极极片的离子传导性的观点考虑,所述无机颗粒的体积中值粒径Dv50可以为30nm~500nm。
如上所述,本实施方式的所述无机颗粒的体积中值粒径Dv50可以在上述范围内,由此可以改善电池的质量能量密度和改善电极极片的离子传导性(从而降低电极极片的阻抗)。
如上所述,在本实施方式中,所述无机颗粒的种类没有特别限制。例如,所述无机颗粒可以包括选自由氧化硅、氧化铝、勃姆石、氧化镁、氧化钛、氧化锌、氧化铝镁构成的组中的至少一种。可选地,所述无机颗粒可以包括选自勃姆石和氧化铝镁构成的组中的至少一种。

从易于形成适合于涂布的浆料、易于操作且不损害电池性能的观点考虑,所述第一分散剂和所述第二分散剂各自可以包括选自由水、甲醇、乙醇、正丙醇、异丙醇、丙酮、N-甲基吡咯烷酮构成的组中的至少一种。所述分散剂可以根据所适用的极片类型而变化。例如,在适用于正极极片时,所述分散剂可以使用N-甲基吡咯烷酮;在适用于负极极片时,所述分散剂可以使用水。
从在造孔阶段在第一无机隔离层和第二无机隔离层中可以形成贯穿孔道的观点考虑,所述造孔剂应该为造孔温度低于分散剂的蒸发温度的物质。如果造孔剂的造孔温度高于分散剂的蒸发温度,则分散剂在热处理过程中会被优先除去,相应地无机颗粒会被粘结剂粘结,从而导致造孔剂产生的气体无法在无机隔离层中挤开贯穿的孔道。在本实施方式中,所述造孔剂包括选自由碳酸铵和碳酸氢铵构成的组中的至少一种。
在本实施方式中,对所述电极极片的种类没有特别限制。例如,所述电极极片可以为正极极片或负极极片。

Figure PCTCN2021121955-appb-000001
接下来,对二次电池的测试方法进行说明。
(1)K值的测定
在测试温度50℃下,测量二次电池的开路电压OCV1(电压值1),然后在50℃恒温烘箱中放置24小时,之和测试二次电池的开路电压OCV2,利用公式K=(ocv2-ocv1)/24计算二次电池的K值。K值表示了电池自放电率的大小。测量结果示于上表1中。
(2)比容量的测定
在25℃下,将锂离子电池以0.33C恒流充电至3.65V,然后以3.65V恒压充电至电流小于0.05C,然后将锂离子电池以0.33C恒流放电至2.5V,记录其实际容量。根据测得的实际容量与电池的质量计算锂离子电池的比容量,结果示于上表1中。
(3)电池阻抗的测定
通过WK65120B测试仪、通过直流放电内阻测量法测试上述实施例和比较例得到的二次电池的阻抗。测量结果示于上表1中。
由上述表1中的实施例2与比较例3的比较可知,当无机隔离层的厚度一定时,通过对无机隔离层进行造孔,可以增加电池的质量能量密度。由上述表1中的实施例3与实施例5的比较可知,当第一无机隔离层的厚度太厚时,会造成电池的能量密度降低并且阻抗和自放电率一定程度上增加。因此,第一无机隔离层的厚度优选在2μm~10μm的范围内。
由上述表1中的实施例1和3与比较例1和实施例6的比较可知,当第一无机隔离层和第二无机隔离层的厚度之和较小时,电池的自放电率明显增大。相反地,当第一无机隔离层和第二无机隔离层的厚度之和较大时,电池的阻抗增大并且质量能量密度显著减小。因此,第一无机隔离层和第二无机隔离层的厚度之和优选在7μm~30μm的范围内。
由上述表1中的实施例2与比较例2的比较可知,当在造孔阶段在整体无机隔离层中添加造孔剂时,在无机隔离层中会形成楔形孔道。而且,在无机隔离层厚度一定的情况下,楔形孔道开口较大一端的孔径明显大于本申请实施例2中的孔径。相应地,这会造成电池的自放电率明显增加。因此,在本申请中,优选在第一无机隔离层中添加造孔剂对第一无机隔离层和第二无机隔离层进行造孔,以在第二无机隔离层中形成孔径均一的孔道。
由上述表1中的实施例4与比较例4的比较可知,当在第二无机隔离层中形成孔径大于600nm的孔道时,电池的自放电率显著增加。因此,无机隔离层中孔道的孔径优选为300nm~600nm。
由上述表1中的实施例1-4可知,当第一无机隔离层的厚度、第一无机隔离层和第二无机隔离层的厚度之和、无机隔离层的孔隙率以及孔道的孔径均在本申请的范围内时,本申请的二次电池具有优异的质量能量密度以及低的自放电率和阻抗。
由上述表1中的实施例1和7的比较可知,对极片进行压制可以提高二次电池的能量 密度。
需要说明的是,本申请不限定于上述实施方式。上述实施方式仅为示例,在本申请的技术方案范围内具有与技术思想实质相同的构成、发挥相同作用效果的实施方式均包含在本申请的技术范围内。此外,在不脱离本申请主旨的范围内,对实施方式施加本领域技术人员能够想到的各种变形、将实施方式中的一部分构成要素加以组合而构筑的其它方式也包含在本申请的范围内。
