Embodiment

[0096] Fabrication of the final board

[0097] Various predetermined ingots were measured and blended, and 6 kg of ingots (a total of 8 test materials) were inserted into each No. 20 crucible coated with a release material. Insert these crucibles into the electric furnace, melt at 780°C to remove dross, then keep the temperature of the melt at 740°C, then insert a small spray gun into the melt, and inject N at a flow rate of 1.0L / min. 2 The gas was degassed for 10 minutes. Then, it was left to rest for 30 minutes, and the dross floating on the surface of the melt was removed with a stirring rod, and the disc sample was taken into a mold for component analysis with a sample spoon.

[0098] Next, the crucibles were sequentially taken out of the electric furnace using jigs, and the molten aluminum was cast into a water-cooled mold with an inner size of 200 mm×200 mm×16 mm to produce a thin plate. The composition of the disk samples of each test material was analyzed by lumine...

Abstract

Provided is a 3000 series aluminium alloy plate which exhibits heat-dissipation characteristics applicable to large lithium ion battery containers, and which also exhibits excellent moulding properties, shape fixability, and laser welding properties. This aluminium alloy plate is a cold-rolled annealed material which has: a component composition including over 0.2 mass% but less than 1.4 mass% of Fe, 0.5-2.0 mass% of Mn, over 0.2 mass% but not more than 1.1 mass% of Si, 0.05-1.0 mass% of Cu, and less than 0.05 mass% of Mg, the remainder comprising Al and impurities; a conductivity of over 45% IACS; a metallographic structure in which the number of second phase particles having an equivalent circular diameter of at least 2 µm is less than 1800/mm2; a 0.2% proof stress of at least 30 MPa but less than 85 MPa; and an elongation value of at least 10%. Otherwise, this aluminium alloy plate is a cold-rolled material which has: a conductivity of over 45% IACS; a metallographic structure in which the number of second phase particles having an equivalent circular diameter of at least 2 µm is less than 1800/mm2; a 0.2% proof stress of at least 90 MPa but less than 180 MPa; and an elongation value of at least 3%.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an aluminum alloy plate excellent in formability, heat dissipation and weldability for use in containers for secondary batteries such as lithium ion batteries. Background technique [0002] Al—Mn-based 3000-series alloys are increasingly used as raw materials for manufacturing containers for secondary batteries such as lithium-ion batteries because they are relatively excellent in strength, formability, and laser weldability. After molding into a desired shape, it is sealed by laser welding and used as a container for a secondary battery. Based on the above-mentioned 3000-series alloys and existing 3000-series alloys, an aluminum alloy plate for secondary battery containers with improved strength and formability has been further developed. [0003] For example, Patent Document 1 describes an aluminum alloy plate for a prismatic battery case that has a composition specified in JIS A3003 as the composition of the aluminu...
