The invention relates to the field of manufacturing of secondary batteries, in particular to a
lithium battery
drying process. According to the
drying process, when the
breathing action is carried out, the vacuum breaking degree is far smaller than the
atmospheric pressure, the vacuum breaking time and the next
breathing vacuumizing time can be shortened, vacuum breaking is carried out through hot
drying gas, the temperature environment in the drying box can be prevented from being damaged by vacuum breaking gas, and the drying efficiency is improved. As a result, the
battery cell in the drying box needs to be reheated for a long time, so that the time required by single
breathing is shortened on the whole, more times of breathing actions can be carried out in limited time, and the size
rhythm of the gap between the battery
pole piece and the diaphragm is enhanced by the high-frequency breathing actions; according to the drying method disclosed by the invention, water in the battery can be more efficiently evaporated, so that the battery can be efficiently dried through mutual cooperation of different steps in the drying method disclosed by the invention, the
drying time can be shortened, the drying efficiency can be improved, and the
water content in a
battery cell after drying can be reduced.
