具体实施方式
以下,适当地参照附图详细说明具体公开了本申请的负极活性材料及其制备方法、极片、二次电池、电池模块、电池包和用电装置的实施方式。但是会有省略不必要的详细说明的情况。例如,有省略对已众所周知的事项的详细说明、实际相同结构的重复说明的情况。这是为了避免以下的说明不必要地变得冗长,便于本领域技术人员的理解。此外,附图及以下说明是为了本领域技术人员充分理解本申请而提供的,并不旨在限定权利要求书所记载的主题。
本申请所公开的“范围”以下限和上限的形式来限定,给定范围是通过选定一个下限和一个上限进行限定的,选定的下限和上限限定了特别范围的边界。这种方式进行限定的范围可以是包括端值或不包括端值的,并且可以进行任意地组合,即任何下限可以与任何上限组合形成一个范围。例如,如果针对特定参数列出了60-120和80-110的范围,理解为60-110和80-120的范围也是预料到的。此外,如果列出的最小范围值1和2,和如果列出了最大范围值3,4和5,则下面的范围可全部预料到:1-3、1-4、1-5、2-3、2-4和2-5。在本申请中,除非有其他说明,数值范围“a-b”表示a到b之间的任意实数组合的缩略表示,其中a和b都是实数。例如数值范围“0-5”表示本文中已经全部列出了“0-5”之间的全部实数,“0-5”只是这些数值组合的缩略表示。另外,当表述某个参数为≥2的整数,则相当于公开了该参数为例如整数2、3、4、5、6、7、8、9、10、11、12等。
如果没有特别的说明,本申请的所有实施方式以及可选实施方式可以相互组合形成新的技术方案。
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形成新的技术方案。
如果没有特别的说明,本申请的所有步骤可以顺序进行,也可以随机进行,优选是顺序进行的。例如,所述方法包括步骤(a)和(b),表示所述方法可包括顺序进行的步骤(a)和(b),也可以包括顺序进行的步骤(b)和(a)。例如,所述提到所述方法还可包括步骤(c),表示步骤(c)可以任意顺序加入到所述方法,例如,所述方法可以包括步骤(a)、(b)和(c),也可包括步骤(a)、(c)和(b),也可以包括步骤(c)、(a)和(b)等。

根据上述结果可知,实施例1至19,均取得了良好的效果,
本申请将浆料涂布于经活化的聚合物膜的表面,聚合物膜的表面活化后发生表面改性,使聚合物膜与改性聚烯烃聚合物树脂固体膜产生更强的结合力,而且,聚合物膜的表面活化接枝的极性基团与浆料膜中包含接枝有极性基团在加热的过程中,彼此之间相互扩散使得聚合物膜与改性聚合物树脂固体膜间形成一个渐变界面,不仅降低了改性聚合物树脂固体膜和聚合物膜之间的界面能,还提高了二者之间的复合强度。获得的复合膜既具有较高的机械强度、绝缘性能和剪切强度,又具有较高的 粘结强度,聚合物膜与改性聚合物树脂固体膜复合形成复合膜,能更好地发挥它们的优势互补和弥补彼此缺点的协同作用。
实施例1~5的制备复合膜的方法,主要体现在复合膜的抗拉强度。对比例1、2和3,将聚合物膜的表面与活化液接触,不合适上述工艺条件,聚合物膜与改性聚合物树脂固体膜复合稳定较差。
进一步参照实施例1~12和13,聚合物膜与其同源的改性聚合物树脂固体膜进行复合,复合强度更高。
进一步参照实施例8~11,改性聚合物树脂固体膜的厚度为10μm~50μm,上述适宜的厚度使得改性聚合物树脂固体膜能够稳定粘接于聚合物膜上,且将复合膜应用于电池模块时,能够保证复合膜的粘结强度。聚合物膜的厚度为50μm~130μm,上述适宜的厚度使得聚合物膜复合具有一定的机械强度和绝缘性能。
进一步参照实施例14~19,通过热压方式将复合膜包覆于二次电池的表面,其制备方法简单,提高生产效率,而且热压方式能够将复合膜紧密贴合在二次电池的表面,保证复合膜与二次电池紧密包覆。此外,本申请的复合膜在常温状态下,粘结强度较小,方便安装与贴膜,而通过热压处理后,复合膜的粘结强度增加,且高于常规的热敏胶,能够稳定的包覆在二次电池的表面。
虽然已经参考优选实施例对本申请进行了描述,但在不脱离本申请的范围的情况下,可以对其进行各种改进并且可以用等效物替换其中的部件。尤其是,只要不存在结构冲突,各个实施例中所提到的各项技术特征均可以任意方式组合起来。本申请并不局限于文中公开的特定实施例,而是包括落入权利要求的范围内的所有技术方案。
