Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of organic synthesis, in particular to a preparation method and application of ammonium thiocarbonate sulfonate inner salt. Background Art
[0002] As an excellent electronic current collector material, copper foil is widely used in different fields such as integrated circuits and lithium batteries. In particular, with the rise of China's new energy vehicle industry, the demand for lithium-ion power batteries is increasing day by day. When copper foil is applied to lithium-ion cathode materials, copper foil materials with low tensile strength are prone to breakage during the coating process. Therefore, tensile strength is an important indicator for evaluating the performance of copper foil materials.
[0003] As an additive in the production of electrolytic copper foil, high-resistance agent can greatly improve the tensile strength of copper foil at low concentrations. In the existing electrolytic copper foil production process, SH110 (sodium thiazolyl disulfide propane sulfonate) is widely used as a high-resistance agent. However, SH110 itself is easy to decompose, and its composition is constantly changing due to long storage time. In the actual production process, it will lead to unstable copper foil production process and easily cause various defects in copper foil (such as torn edges, nail marks, seersucker, etc.). Therefore, it is very meaningful to seek a high-resistance agent to replace SH110.
[0004] Ammonium thiocarbonate sulfonate inner salt can be synthesized by the following method:
[0005] Method 1:
[0006] As starting material, a compound having at least one epoxy group is used.
[0007] The above compound is reacted with phosgene or an alkyl chloroformate to obtain an adduct.
[0008] The above adduct is reacted with a compound containing anionic sulfur to obtain a compound having at least one five-membered cyclic monothiocarbonate group.
[0009] Method 2:
[0010] The invention adopts an epoxy compound and carbon oxysulfide as reactants, a nitrogen-bridged triaryloxyaluminum coordination compound as a catalyst, and in the presence of a co-catalyst, a five-membered ring monothiocarbonate is prepared through an addition reaction.
[0011] Ammonium carbonate is added to the five-membered ring monothiocarbonate to obtain ammonium thiocarbonate sulfonate inner salt after reaction.
[0012] The above synthesis methods of ammonium thiocarbonate sulfonate inner salts have a long reaction time and a complicated process. Summary of the invention
