一种电池极片及其制备方法 技术领域
本发明属于电池的技术领域,具体涉及一种电池极片及其制备方法。
背景技术
当前手机消费市场,要想能在市场中占据一定份额并具备足够产品竞争力,主流方向为快充,高能量密度,高安全性能,及高长循环。
针对结构方面,主流的是采用极耳中置结构,针对现有中置结构,现有技术主要是通过在分切前预设置焊接极耳的槽位,分切后在卷绕工序通过模切将槽位焊接极耳朝向的边料模切,但增加了模切工位设备,增加了设备成本,过程断带频率增加、降低卷绕效率,同时还引入了模切产生的极粉,极粉掉入电芯影响K值等性能等一系列问题;另一种为分切时在槽位区域分切,使之部分槽位预留在相邻极片极耳朝向对侧位置,但需要对分切非焊接区域的槽位进行处理,避免该区域槽位铝箔正对负极,当隔膜刺破时阳极与铝箔直接接触造成短路安全风险。
发明内容
本发明的目的之一在于:针对现有技术的不足,提供一种电池极片,通过优化极片结构,能够简化生产工序,避免电池产生安全问题,有助于提高电池的质量。

优选的,所述极片本体的减薄区位于所述槽位区边缘和所述极片本体边缘之间。
优选的,在所述极片本体的宽度方向Y上,所述槽位区边缘和所述极片本体边缘之间的距离W小于所述减薄区的宽度L,其中,0<W≤8mm。
优选的,位于减薄区的所述涂层形成有减薄部,所述极耳贴近所述减薄部,所述减薄部的厚度h为10~50um。
优选的,位于减薄区所述涂层在减薄前的厚度H为20~100um。
优选的,位于减薄区所述涂层的减薄厚度h为10~80um。
优选的,所述涂层为单层结构或多层结构。
优选的,所述涂层在其厚度方向包括活性物质层、安全涂层、涂炭涂层及绝缘涂层中的至少一种。
优选的,位于槽位区的所述涂层形成有槽位,所述槽位包括底部和侧壁,所述侧壁从所述底部向上延伸,所述底部为暴露于所述极片本体表面的集流体,所述涂层围成所述侧壁。
本发明的目的之二在于提供一种电池极片的制备方法,包括:
将涂层的浆料涂覆在集流体上;
将槽位区的涂层刮出或激光清洗,形成槽位;
将减薄区的涂层进行减薄,形成减薄部;
将极片依次经过清洁、辊压和分切;
将极耳的端部焊接在槽位,使得极耳部分贴近减薄部。
本发明的有益效果在于,本发明通过对极片本体的减薄区位置的涂层进行减薄处理,即通过极耳朝向位置的涂层进行减薄处理,省去了分切后需模切槽位或需分切到槽位区域,不仅简化生产工序,还避免上述工序产生电池安全问题,从而提升电池的制造效率和良品率,此外,在极片本体的表面设有槽位区,可将极耳的端部焊接在暴露于槽位区表面的集流体上,且极耳贴近减薄区的涂 层顶面,避免影响电芯整体厚度。本发明通过优化极片结构,能够简化生产工序,避免电池产生安全问题,有助于提高电池的质量。

以下结合附图1~9对本发明作进一步详细说明,但不作为对本发明的限定。
实施方式一
电池极片,包括极片本体1和极耳2;极片本体1,包括集流体11及涂覆在集流体11表面的涂层12,极片本体1的表面具有槽位区3和减薄区4;其中,集流体11暴露于极片本体1的槽位区3表面,且与极耳2的端部焊接;涂层12暴露于极片本体1的减薄区4表面,且贴近极耳2。
由于现有结构需要增加了模切工位设备,增加了设备成本,过程断带频率增加、降低卷绕效率,同时还引入了模切产生的极粉,极粉掉入电芯影响K值等性能等一系列问题;需对分切非焊接区域的槽位进行处理,当隔膜刺破时阳极与铝箔直接接触造成短路安全风险,因此,通过对极片本体1的减薄区4位置的涂层12进行减薄处理,即通过极耳2朝向位置的涂层12进行减薄处理,省去了分切后需模切槽位或需分切到槽位区域,不仅简化生产工序,还避免上述工序产生电池安全问题,从而提升电池的制造效率和良品率,此外,在极片本体1的表面设有槽位区3,可将极耳2的端部焊接在暴露于槽位区3表面的集流体11上,且极耳2贴近减薄区4的涂层12顶面,避免影响电芯整体厚度。
在根据本发明的电池极片中,极片本体1的减薄区4位于槽位区3边缘和极片本体1边缘之间。具体的,槽位区3的形状为方形,槽位区3靠近极片本体1的宽度方向Y的一侧边缘,槽位区3和极片本体1边缘之间的区域作为减薄区4,可以理解为极耳2探出方向的槽位边料,即位于减薄区4的涂层12。需要说明的是:极耳的探出方向与极片本体1的宽度方向Y相同。
在根据本发明的电池极片中,在极片本体1的宽度方向Y上,槽位区3边缘和极片本体1边缘之间的距离W小于减薄区4的宽度L,其中,0<W≤8mm,具体的,减薄区4的宽度L可以理解为极耳2探出方向的槽位边料减薄长度,槽位区3边缘和极片本体1边缘之间的距离W可以理解为极耳2朝向的边料宽度,W≤L,确保削薄的涂层12在分切后不需模切槽位边缘残留涂料,且不影响电芯整体厚度,从而提升电池制造过程的效率、优率及品质。
在根据本发明的电池极片中,位于减薄区4的涂层12形成有减薄部5,极耳2贴近减薄部5,减薄部5的厚度h为10~50um,控制薄部5的厚度h,可以理解为将极耳2探出方向的槽位边料减薄后厚度,例如,减薄后厚度为10um、20um、30um、40um、50um等,可与极耳2相匹配,避免影响电芯整体厚度。
在根据本发明的电池极片中,位于减薄区4涂层12在减薄前的厚度H为 20~100um,可以理解为控制极耳2探出方向的槽位边料减薄前厚度,例如,减薄前厚度为20um、30um、40um、50um、60um、70um、80um、90um、100um等,该厚度与其他区域的涂层2的厚度可以相同,也可以不相同,这里不作限定。
在根据本发明的电池极片中,位于减薄区4涂层12的减薄厚度h1为10~80um,可以理解为控制极耳2探出方向的槽位边料减薄厚度,例如,减薄厚度为10um、20um、30um、40um、50um、60um、70um、80um等,减薄厚度可与极耳2的厚度相匹配,避免影响电芯整体厚度。
锂离子电池包括电芯,该电芯可以包括至少两个相互叠设且极性相反的极片,极性相反的极片分别为电池的正极极片和电池的负极极片。为了避免正负极极片之间短路,每相邻两个极片之间设置有隔膜,极性相反的极片通过隔膜电性隔离。至少其中一个极片可以为上述电池极片。
至少两个极片可以包括第一极片和第二极片,第一极片和第二极片的极性相反,且第一极片和第二极片相互叠设。
具体的,第一极片可以为正极极片,采用上述实施例1~8的正极极片结构,第二极片可以是负极极片;或者,第一极片可以为负极极片,第二极片可以是正极极片,此处不做限制。
在一些示例中,电芯可以为卷绕式的电芯。其中,第一极片和第二极片均为一个,依次叠设的第一极片、隔膜和第二极片绕卷绕中心卷绕,并形成卷绕结构。
在另一些示例中,电芯可以为叠片式的电芯。其中,第一极片为多个,第二极片为多个,多个第一极片和多个第二极片沿同一方向依次交错层叠设置,且每相邻的第一极片和第二极片之间设置有隔膜,以使第一极片和第二极片之间电性绝缘。
本发明的工作原理是:
通过对极片本体1的减薄区4位置的涂层12进行减薄处理,即通过极耳2朝向 位置的涂层12进行减薄处理,省去了分切后需模切槽位或需分切到槽位区域,不仅简化生产工序,还避免上述工序产生电池安全问题,从而提升电池的制造效率和良品率,此外,在极片本体1的表面设有槽位区3,可将极耳2的端部焊接在暴露于槽位区3表面的集流体11上,且极耳2贴近减薄区4的涂层12顶面,避免影响电芯整体厚度。

其他结构与实施方式一相同,这里不再赘述。
实施方式三
