Description

一种极耳及包括所述极耳的电池
本申请要求于2022年01月10日提交中国专利局、申请号为202210023542.5、申请名称为“一种极耳及包括所述极耳的电池”的中国专利申请的优先权,其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本申请属于电池技术领域,具体涉及一种极耳及包括所述极耳的电池。
背景技术
软包电池因能量密度高,续航能力长等优点,被广泛应用于各种领域,如手机、笔记本、电动汽车、电动船舶等等。软包电池的制作生产过程涉及一道封装工序,即需要将铝塑包装膜和极耳的绝缘垫进行顶封实现熔融密封。
目前的软包电池用极耳一般采用软化点为130℃~170℃的单层、两层或三层的绝缘密封垫的极耳胶作为密封材料,这使得电池封装制作时需要更高的温度、压力以及更长的封装时间,不仅增加了生产的能耗,降低了生产效率,而且该结构的极耳胶在高温封胶过程中容易变形,导致电池容易产生电化学腐蚀的风险。
此外,软包电池在大电流、高电压以及高温条件下进行充放电使用时,电池往往会产生大量热量,电池温度高,内部的电解液分解汽化程度高,隔膜热收缩严重,正负极的副反应加剧,导致电池鼓胀变形严重。由于目前常规软包电池仍采用常规的极耳胶作为绝缘密封垫,上述大电流、高电压电池在高温充放时,严重鼓胀的电池内部高压高热的可燃性气体无法及时排出,一直滞留于电池内腔中,随着条件的持续恶化,电池从而引发起火、冒烟甚至爆炸等事故。

Figure PCTCN2022138099-appb-000001
由测试例1和2结果可以看出,本申请的极耳能完全保证极耳的粘结密封性和耐电解液性能;由测试例3和4结果可以看出,本申请所述极耳能有效降低热封温度和热封时间,可以大大降低生产能耗,并提高生产效率;由测试例5和6结果来看,本申请所述极耳的绝缘密封垫可以提高电池的安全性能。
由实施例1和对比例3的测试结果来看,热封外层的缺失会大大提高顶封温度和生产时间,大大提高生产能耗和降低生产效率;
由实施例1和对比例4、6的测试结果来看,外过渡层和内过渡层的缺失,绝缘垫之间会存在耐腐蚀差(分层)的结果,绝缘垫无法有效保证电池的密封可靠性;
由实施例1和对比例5的测试结果来看,芯层的缺失,电池的顶封外观性差,电池的边电压变高,存在电池电化学腐蚀的风险;
由实施例1和对比例7的测试结果来看,低软化点内层的缺失,绝缘垫和金属导体的粘附性差,耐电解液性能,电池的密封阻隔性会变差;此外,电池的炉温和短路无法通过。
本申请与现有技术相比具有明显的优点和有益效果,具体而言,由上述各技术方案的结果和对比例的结果对比可知:本申请所述的一种极耳、制造方法及含该极耳的锂离子电池具有降低电池制作封装温度,缩短封装时长的效果,同时能满足电池高电压、大电流或者直接高温条件下的安全使用。
本说明书中的各个实施例均采用相关的方式描述,各个实施例之间相同相似的部分互相参见即可,每个实施例重点说明的都是与其它实施例的不同之处。以上仅为本申请的较佳实施例而已,并非用于限定本申请的保护范围。凡在本申请的精神和原则之内所作的任何修改、等同替换、改进等,均包含在本申请的保护范围内。
