Problems solved by technology

The disadvantage of this method is: the stirring speed of the mixer does not exceed 50 rpm, because the speed is too slow, the CNT (carbon nanotube) cannot be well dispersed, and the CNT (carbon nanotube) is prone to agglomeration, resulting in slurry layering, Settlement, etc., resulting in uneven density of the coating surface or even failure to coat, eventually resulting in low battery capacity, uneven distribution, high internal resistance, poor consistency, etc., affecting production quality and resulting in production waste

Abstract

The invention relates to a process for dispersing carbon nanotubes in an electroconductive adhesive of a lithium ion battery. The process comprises the following steps of: firstly, mixing and stirring a solvent, a conductive additive and a dispersant, adding lithium iron phosphate, lithium titanate and aluminium oxide, mixing and stirring uniformly to obtain a pre-mixed electroconductive liquid of the lithium ion battery, and then placing the premixed electroconductive liquid of the lithium ion battery into an internal circulation system composed of a stirring tank and a high-speed dispersing machine for cyclic stirring and dispersing to obtain a uniform electroconductive liquid of the lithium ion battery; and adding a bonding agent into the conductive liquid, and mixing and stirring uniformly to obtain the electroconductive adhesive of the lithium ion battery. According to the invention, by means of controlling the particle size distribution range of the lithium iron phosphate, the lithium titanate and the aluminium oxide, a ball milling effect is produced in a stirring and dispersing process, so that the dispersion uniformity of the carbon nanotubes is increased effectively. Particularly, by adoption of the internal circuit system for cyclic stirring and dispersing, circulation dead angles can be prevented in the stirring tank, and the dispersion effect of the carbon nanotubes can be increased further. The process disclosed by the invention has the advantages of simpleness, convenience for operate, dispersion uniformity of the carbon nanotubes in a slurry preparation process of the lithium ion battery, long-term stability of the viscosity of the slurry and good reproducibility, and is suitable for industrial application.
