二次电池因其高能量密度、高电压、长寿命等特点被广泛应用于移动手机、电动车辆、储电站等领域。正极极片作为电池的组成部分,正极极片的性能对于电池的性能至关重要。
粘结剂是影响正极极片性能的重要因素,在正极极片的制备过程中,通常会在正极浆料中添加粘结剂,通过粘结剂将正极活性物质和导电剂粘附在正极集流体上,保持正极极片的结构稳定性。聚氨酯粘结剂因其具有好的粘结力、存储稳定性和更多的活性金属离子通道而受到广泛的应用。但交联固化后的聚氨酯粘结剂分子量较大,添加到正极浆料中会大幅提高正极浆料的粘度,降低正极浆料中固体物的分散均匀性,正极浆料涂覆到正极集流体上时,难以涂抹均匀,增加了生产难度,降低生产效率。且为了保证正极浆料的可用性,还需控制聚氨酯粘结剂的分子量不能太大,这就使得聚氨酯粘结剂的粘结性能大打折扣,不利于制备性能良好的正极极片。
鉴于此,本申请实施例提供了一种正极极片的制备方法,在正极浆料中包括聚氨酯预聚体,将正极浆料涂覆在正极集流体的至少一侧后,烘干涂覆在正极集流体的至少一侧的正极浆料,在烘干正极浆料的过程中,正极浆料中的聚氨酯预聚体会进行交联固化,形成大分子量的聚氨酯交联物质,聚氨酯交联物质中具有交联网状结构,具有长的分子链结构,相较于一般的晶体状粘结剂物质,具有良好的粘结强度和韧性,从而提高正极极片的韧性,得到性能良好的正极极片,。同时,聚氨酯有利于提升活性金属离子(比如,锂离子)的传输速率,从而改善电池的内阻,提升电池的循环性能。本申请实施例提供的技术方案中,未进行交联固化的聚氨酯预聚体具有较低的粘度,添加到正极浆料中,可以提高正极浆料中聚氨酯粘结剂的固含量,且正极浆料在涂覆时易于分散,提高正极极片的加工效率。在烘干涂覆于正极集流体的至少一侧的正极浆料的过程中,聚氨酯预聚体进行交联固化,形成大分子量的交联物质,具有良好的粘结强度和韧性,可以提高正极极片的性能,从而提升电池的性能。

打开三思拉力机电源(灵敏度为1N),指示灯亮,调整限位块到合适位置,将钢板未贴正极极片的一端用下夹具固定。将纸带向上翻折,用上夹具固定,利用拉力机附带的手动控制器上的“上行”和“下行”按钮调整上夹具的位置。然后进行测试并读取数值。
