Problems solved by technology

Metal foil has good electrical conductivity, but the machining performance is poor at the above-mentioned thickness. Leakage current not only affects the performance efficiency of the entire battery, but may even cause serious safety problems
In addition, the mass per unit area of ​​metal foil is relatively large. Traditional copper foil and aluminum foil account for 15-20% of the entire battery mass, which is the heaviest part of the battery except for the positive and negative electrode materials, which will lead to a decrease in the energy density of the battery.
[0004] In view of the above problems, the Chinese patent with the publication number CN106898729A discloses a current collector based on a polymer-based textile, which has a small mass per unit area and can effectively increase the volumetric energy density of the battery. However, the high Molecular polymer substrates will shrink under high temperature conditions (170-200°C), which will eventually lead to battery safety problems

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of lithium ion batteries, in particular to a current collector and a preparation method and application thereof. The current collector provided by the invention comprises a liquid crystal polymer modified fiber cloth substrate with a porous structure and a conductive metal layer attached to the surface of the liquid crystal polymer modified fiber cloth substrate with the porous structure and in the porous structure. The liquid crystal polymer modified fiber cloth substrate with a porous structure is used as the current collector, so that an active material (a conductive metal layer) can be embedded into the pores of the current collector, the active material is mutually communicated on the two surfaces of the current collector, the content of the active material in unit volume is increased, and lithium ions can shuttle through the two surfaces of the pole piece; the safety is further improved; and the liquid crystal polymer material in the liquid crystal polymer modified fiber cloth substrate with the porous structure has the characteristic of high temperature resistance, so that when the liquid crystal polymer modified fiber cloth substrate is used as a current collector, the problem of thermal shrinkage caused by over-high working temperature can be relieved, and the safety of the lithium ion battery is further improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of lithium ion batteries, in particular to a current collector and a preparation method and application thereof. Background technique [0002] At present, the electrode sheets of lithium ion batteries mainly adopt a hierarchical stacking mode in which electrode materials are coated on metal foil current collectors. Since the metal foil current collector and electrode material layers are completely separated, the contact between the two layers forms a large interfacial resistance. Improving its surface contact with the electrode material layer has become one of the key issues in the fabrication of high specific energy batteries. [0003] The traditional positive electrode current collector is made of aluminum foil with a thickness of 15-20 μm, and the negative electrode current collector is made of copper foil with a thickness of 8-12 μm. Metal foil has good electrical conductivity, but the machining perfor...
