Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a manufacturing method, and more particularly to a manufacturing method for a lead-carbon composite pole piece. The porous lead-carbon composite pole piece made by lead-carbon bonding can be further welded by wires to serve as an electrode piece of a lead-carbon composite battery. Background Art

[0002] Green energy has been a topic of widespread concern in recent years. Currently, in response to intermittent power generation types such as wind power generation and solar power generation, a distributed power storage system is used. The batteries used in this power storage system must meet two conditions: first, a higher energy density; second, a longer cycle charge and discharge life. With the development and expansion of green energy, the demand for energy storage with both high energy density and fast charge and discharge characteristics is expected to grow rapidly in the near future. However, as the preferred electrochemical battery for building green power microgrid energy storage, under the existing technical background, it generally has disadvantages such as easy electrode wear and short life.

[0003] In order to solve the above problems, storage components with lithium ion capacitors as the core are being actively developed. They use electrolytes containing lithium salts to charge and discharge through non-Faradaic reactions of anion adsorption and desorption in the positive electrode and lithium ion absorption and release in the negative electrode. In addition, the electrodes of lithium ion capacitors use oxides or carbon materials to increase their energy density, which can be 10 times higher than the non-Faradaic reaction using activated carbon, but there are currently no insurmountable issues in terms of battery life and charge and discharge efficiency. On the one hand, composite lead-carbon batteries have also attracted much attention because of their long life and are expected to reduce the cost loss caused by cyclic charge and discharge. However, the redox potential of carbon electrodes is much lower than that of lead plates, so the discharge voltage of lead-carbon batteries is mostly lower than 1.0V, which will lead to low energy storage efficiency.

[0004] The composite lead-acid battery developed by Axion in the United States is a lead-acid battery plus a supercapacitor. It uses the positive electrode placed on activated carbon to form a supercapacitor electrode. In order to avoid physical interface corrosion between the activated carbon material and lead, a corrosion-resistant conductive protective layer is used in this composite lead-acid battery to isolate the acid. However, the corrosion-resistant conductive protective layer has a high interface resistance with the electrode, which greatly affects the battery capacity. In addition, the cost of the corrosion-resistant conductive protective layer is high, making it difficult to fully amortize and reduce the cost.

[0005] The UltraBattery is improved by increasing the specific surface area of ​​carbon materials and stabilizing the lead-carbon bonding. Specifically, the ground carbon fibers are made into a honeycomb grid, carbonized under a nitrogen flow at a high temperature of 1000°C, and then electroplated with lead-tin to form a lead-carbon electrode skeleton. Then, a carbon fiber mixture is coated on the lead-tin-plated honeycomb grid, dried at 60°C for 48 hours, and then welded with pure lead wiring, and then carbonized to complete the lead-carbon negative electrode to increase the negative plate capacity and battery life. Although this method increases the specific surface area of ​​carbon materials and utilizes the good conductivity of carbon fibers after high-temperature carbonization to electroplate lead-tin to complete the lead-carbon bonding, such a production process is more complicated and costly.

[0006] In order to increase the specific surface area of ​​the electrode, templates are also used to electroplate long Pb and PbO2 nanowires to inhibit battery sulfidation under high-speed charge and discharge. PbO2 nanowires / PbO2 are used as the positive electrode and combined with commercial negative electrodes (containing activated carbon materials) to form a battery. The commercial negative electrode is replaced every 200 cycles to conduct HRPSoC charge and discharge tests. The test results show that the charge and discharge cycle life can reach 1400 times from 1C to high-power 10C, and the charge and discharge efficiency can reach 90%. However, this electrode is made by using sputtered gold film to catalyze the growth of nanowires and chloroform to wash away the polycarbonate template. It is expensive and has the risk of derivative pollution, making it difficult to mass produce. Summary of the invention

[0007] The electrode production of advanced lead-acid or composite lead-carbon batteries mainly involves applying lead paste to the lead grid, which is aged to achieve better adhesion and cohesion. Therefore, during the battery charging and discharging / oxidation-reduction process, it is easy to fall off due to volume changes, causing the electrode to be worn out as the battery is used more frequently. On the one hand, using composite lead-carbon batteries or lead-acid batteries to solve the service life or capacity problems has derivative problems such as low energy storage efficiency or high production costs that need to be solved.

[0060] In order to provide a further understanding and recognition of the features and effects of the present invention, only preferred embodiments and accompanying drawings are described in detail as follows:

[0061] Please refer to Figure 1 One embodiment of the present invention provides a method for manufacturing a lead-carbon composite pole piece, which comprises:

[0062] Step 101: providing a first lead material, a second lead material and a carbon material, wherein any main side surface of the first lead material is bonded to the carbon material, and any main side surface of the second lead material is bonded to the carbon material, so that the carbon material is located between the first lead material and the second lead material;

[0063] Step 102: Apply external pressure to the first lead material, the second lead material and the carbon material at a first temperature and maintain the temperature and pressure for 2 to 10 minutes to compound them, wherein the first temperature is 300 to 360° C. and the external pressure is 70 to 120 kg / m 2 .

[0064] In some preferred embodiments, the method for manufacturing the lead-carbon composite electrode further comprises step 101': placing the lead-carbon sandwich formed by the first lead material, the carbon material and the second lead material in a hot pressing mold 2, wherein, see Figure 2A, is a top view of a preferred embodiment of the hot pressing mold 2, the hot pressing mold 2 includes: a punch 21, the punch 21 has a plurality of punch exhaust holes 211 and a punch ventilation groove, the punch exhaust holes 211 are evenly dispersed along the inner side of the flange of the punch 21, and the punch ventilation groove is formed along the outer side of the flange; a die 22, the die 22 has a plurality of die exhaust holes 221 and a die ventilation groove 222, the die exhaust holes 221 are evenly dispersed along the inner side of the die edge of the die 22 corresponding to the punch exhaust holes 211, the die ventilation groove 222 is a groove structure formed by annular spiral arrangement along the inner side of the die edge toward the geometric center of the die, wherein, when the punch 21 is engaged with the die 22, the punch exhaust holes 211 are connected with the die exhaust holes 221 for exhaust.

[0065] Specifically, the lead-carbon sandwich formed by the first lead material, the carbon material and the second lead material contains air between the interlayers under the action of the external pressure, which generates internal expansion pressure to make the air flow along the cavity vent groove 222 to the punch vent groove. Then, the air flows along the punch vent groove to the punch exhaust hole 211 and the cavity vent hole 221 and is discharged from the hot pressing mold 2. This design allows the internal expansion pressure to be applied to the hot pressing mold 2 while the external pressure is applied to the hot pressing mold 2, prompting the lead material to cover the carbon material to form the lead-carbon composite electrode; please refer to Figure 2B , is a perspective view of the corresponding engagement of the convex mold 21 and the concave mold 22 of the hot pressing mold 2. Preferably, the concave mold 22 further includes a concave mold overflow groove 223 and a positioning pin 224. The concave mold overflow groove 223 protrudes from the outer side of the concave edge of the concave mold 22 to form a groove structure. When the external pressure is applied to the lead-carbon sandwich, the positioning pin 224 fixes the lead-carbon sandwich to the bottom of the concave mold 22. Under the action of the hot pressing temperature, the lead material is in a semi-molten state. Under the corresponding action of the internal expansion pressure, the semi-molten lead material fixed at the bottom of the concave mold 22 overflows toward the concave edge of the concave mold 22 into the concave mold overflow groove 223. After the lead-carbon composite electrode is completed, the user can also easily remove the lead-carbon composite electrode through the lead sheet solidified in the concave mold overflow groove 223.

[0066] Please continue to refer to Figure 2A In order to cope with the excessive internal pressure of the mold caused by the external pressure and the internal expansion pressure, it is preferred that the punch 21 further includes a punch overflow groove 213, and the punch overflow groove 213 forms a groove structure along the outer side of the flange. When the external pressure is applied to the lead-carbon sandwich, under the interaction of the external pressure and the internal expansion pressure, the semi-molten lead material flows toward the outside of the flange to the punch overflow groove 213 to achieve the effect of pressure relief.

[0067] Please refer to Figures 2A to 2C ,in Figure 2CIt is a side view of the punch 21 and the die 22 of the hot pressing mold 2 after being correspondingly engaged and fixed. Preferably, the punch 21 further includes a plurality of punch locking holes 215, and the die 22 includes a plurality of die locking holes 225. The punch locking holes 215 are evenly dispersed along the outer side of the flange of the punch 21, and the die locking holes 225 correspond to the punch locking holes 215 and are evenly dispersed along the outer side of the concave edge of the die 22. When the punch 21 and the die 22 are correspondingly engaged, the punch locking holes 215 are connected with the die locking holes 225, and the hot pressing mold 2 is fixed with a plurality of fasteners 23, which are screws, bolts, nails, tacks, pins, rods or any other objects that can fasten two or more objects together.

[0068] Please continue to refer to Figures 2A to 2C Preferably, the punch 21 includes a punch socket 216, and the die 22 includes a die socket 226. The punch socket 216 is arranged on the outer edge side of the punch 21, and the die socket 226 is arranged on the outer edge side of the die 22. The punch socket 216 and the die socket 226 are used to insert a temperature sensor 24. The temperature sensor 24 allows the user to observe the temperature reached by the hot pressing mold 2 when pressing the lead-carbon composite pole piece. The temperature sensor 24 can be, for example, a thermistor, a thermocouple, a wire-type thermocouple or any other thermometer; more preferably, the die socket 226 is arranged on the outer edge side of the die 22 corresponding to the punch socket 216.

[0069] In some preferred embodiments, before providing the first lead material and the second lead material, a pre-treatment step is further included, wherein the steps include:

[0070] Step S1: continuously oxidizing the first lead material and the second lead material in an atmospheric environment at a second temperature, wherein the second temperature is 0-400°C.

[0071] Preferably, before providing the carbon material, the carbon material is cut into small pieces or drawn into threads.

[0072] Preferably, the carbon material is carbon cloth; in some preferred embodiments, the carbon cloth used has no carboxyl group (COOH), such as the fireproof fiber cloth (TCF) produced by Taiwan Carbon Technology Co., Ltd.; in some embodiments, carbon fiber cloths provided by different manufacturers are used respectively, such as the activated carbon fiber fabric (ECF) produced by Chemvi ron Carbon in the UK, and the general engineering reinforcement carbon fiber cloth (PCF) produced by Taiwan Plastic Industry Co., Ltd., China. The aforementioned activated carbon fiber fabric is a medical grade carbon cloth with the most complete functional groups including phenol Carboxyl (COOH), carbonyl (C=O), aromatic carbon (CC / C=C), hydroxyl (C-OH) and epoxy See also Figure 3 , is the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT IR) of the carbon cloth produced by the aforementioned manufacturers, wherein ECF is the activated carbon fiber fabric produced by Chemviron Carbon of the United Kingdom, TCF is the fireproof fiber cloth produced by Taiwan Carbon Technology Co., Ltd., and PCF is the general engineering reinforcement carbon fiber cloth produced by Formosa Plastics Corporation; in some embodiments, the carbon cloths are further subjected to oxidation treatment, such as chemical oxidation treatment (Cox), heat treatment (Aox) and plasma treatment (POX).

[0073] Please refer to Table 1, which illustrates the differences in the proportion of functional groups of carbon cloth produced by individual manufacturers after oxidation treatment. Among them, the fire-resistant fiber cloth TCF produced by Taiwan Carbon Technology Co., Ltd. has no carboxyl (COOH) modification after any of the aforementioned treatments (TCF, AoxTCF, PoxTCF).

[0074]

[0075] Table 1

[0076] The aforementioned step S1 is a processing step selected according to experimental conditions or environments; wherein, the oxidation of the lead material in the atmospheric environment generates partial lead oxide on the surface of the lead material, and the partial lead oxide can serve as an interface layer for combining the carbon material and the lead material when the external pressure is applied to the lead material in the aforementioned method for making the lead-carbon composite electrode, and enables the lead material of the composite lead-carbon electrode to tightly cover the carbon material; the principle behind this should be that, at the first temperature, the lead material is in a semi-molten state, and the external pressure applied to the hot pressing mold 2 reaches 70 to 120 kg / m 2 In addition to the pressure transmitted by the male mold 21 and the female mold 22, the expansion pressure generated by the extrusion of the air inside the hot pressing mold 2 also acts on the solid-liquid interface of the lead-carbon, forcing the semi-molten lead to penetrate the fiber structure of the carbon material. After natural cooling, the carbon fiber structure is gradually covered by the solidified lead while being immersed in the semi-molten lead. More specifically, lead oxide has the ability to wet carbon material. The principle is that the surface tension of lead oxide (132mN / m 2 ) is less than or close to the surface tension of the carbon material itself (100-200mJ / m 2), so the formed lead oxide interface layer can wet the carbon material, tightly combine the lead material and the carbon material together to form a lead-carbon interface with high electrochemical stability. This process makes the coating structure formed by the lead material more complete, and also makes the lead-carbon composite electrode more compact, which more effectively improves its capacitance. The present invention utilizes the combination of lead material and carbon material heterogeneous materials to form a porous metal composite material in the process of compounding, in which pores are reserved as a gas or liquid penetration path for the convenience of back-end application; this porous metal composite material is due to the design of the hot pressing mold 2. While exhausting gas to combine the lead and carbon, under the control of external pressure, internal expansion pressure and temperature, the lead and carbon materials are combined and fine pores are formed to form a porous metal composite material. The reserved pores can be used to allow gas and liquid to penetrate when used in the back-end, such as the penetration path of electrolytes, electrochemical reaction substances, etc.

[0077] Please refer to Figures 4A to 4B , is an electro-display magnified image showing the lead-carbon composite pole piece provided by the present invention after being corroded by nitric acid, through which the bonding of lead and carbon fibers is observed. In the lead-carbon composite pole piece after being corroded by 10% nitric acid, the exposed carbon fiber lead surface is covered with lead, and the carbon fibers in the pores of the lead plate are also covered with lead, indicating that the lead material and carbon material of the lead-carbon composite pole piece provided by the present invention are densely bonded.

[0078] See also Figure 5 , is an electro-display magnified image of the surface of the lead-carbon composite electrode provided by the present invention after the cyclic voltammetry test; Figure 5 It can be seen that after the cyclic voltage scan, lead sulfate blocks are generated on the lead material surface and the carbon fiber. From the comparison between Figure b) and Figure c), it can be seen that the surface of the carbon fiber is aggregated with nano-lead sulfate particles that are denser than the surface of the lead material. When the cyclic voltammetry test is carried out, the electrolyte enters the surface of the lead material and the pores of the lead-carbon composite electrode to produce an electrochemical reaction, causing nano-lead sulfate to be generated on the carbon fiber surface, and then attached to the lead material and the carbon fiber surface; this nano-lead sulfate structure continues to accumulate after multiple cycle tests, thereby increasing the capacitance of the lead-carbon composite electrode.

[0079] Please refer to Figure 6 , is a schematic diagram of the lead-carbon composite electrode 3 provided by the present invention, such as Figure 6As shown, the lead-carbon composite electrode 3 includes a first lead material 31, a second lead material 32 and a carbon material 33, any main side of the first lead material 31 is bonded to the carbon material 33, and any main side of the second lead material 32 is bonded to the carbon material, so that the carbon material 33 is located between the first lead material 31 and the second lead material 32 to form a lead-carbon sandwich, and at a first temperature, external pressure is applied to the first lead material 31, the second lead material 32 and the carbon material 33 and the temperature and pressure are maintained for 2 to 10 minutes to make them composite, the first temperature is 300 to 360°C, and the external pressure is 70 to 120 kg / m 2 .

The battery was charged at a constant current of 2C and then discharged at 10C with a cut-off voltage of 0.5V for cyclic charge and discharge tests. The test was performed continuously, and data was recorded every 5 seconds. The charge and discharge time and current were recorded to calculate the coulombic efficiency (charge capacity / discharge capacity, %). Please refer to Table 8, which records the charge and discharge records of the carbon-lead battery LCFN28_2 of Example 7 of the present invention, wherein the battery capacity is 0.17Ah, wherein the 1st to 3rd cycles are charged for 900 seconds to reach saturation charge, and the charging capacity is 0.17Ah, and are discharged for about 118, 130, and 132 seconds, respectively, and the coulombic efficiency is about 59, 65, and 66%; the 4th to 8th cycles are charged for 420 seconds but not to reach saturation charge, and are discharged for about 111 to 96 seconds, respectively, and rest for 30 seconds after discharge before the next test, and the coulombic efficiency reaches 103 to 119%; the 9th to 21st cycles are charged for 240 seconds but not to reach saturation charge, and are discharged for 53 to 72 seconds, respectively, and rest for 30 seconds after discharge before the next test, and the coulombic efficiency is about 99 to 135%.

[0146] Experimental Example 5

[0147] In this experimental example, the cyclic voltammetry analysis method is carried out using the lead-carbon composite electrode and the pure lead electrode of Example 2. The test area of ​​the lead-carbon composite electrode and the pure lead electrode is 1.0*1.0cm, the scanning voltage is -1.0V to 0V, and the scanning speed is 20mV / s; it should be noted that in the cyclic voltammetry test of this experimental example, the turning point of the redox reaction of the electrode is about -0.6V. In the cyclic voltammetry curve recording diagram, the area enclosed by the curves on both sides of -0.6V represents the current detected in the redox reaction; please refer to Fig.22A , is a graph showing the 1st to 500th cyclic voltammetry curve of pure lead electrode, Fig.22A It can be seen that in the cyclic voltammetry test of 1 to 500 times, the current required for the reduction reaction of the pure lead electrode is getting larger and larger during the cycle scanning process, and the current of the hydrolysis reaction to produce hydrogen also increases from -142mA to -660mA. Obviously, after multiple charges and discharges, the pure lead electrode absorbs a large amount of current during the reduction reaction to complete the reduction reaction of lead sulfate, resulting in a decrease in the charging efficiency of the pure lead electrode; please refer to Fig. 22B During the scanning process of the positive scanning potential (-1.0 to 0V), the lead-carbon composite electrode showed an obvious anodic peak, with the peak value reaching 111mA. However, during the scanning process of the negative scanning potential (0V to -1.0V), no cathodic peak appeared. In addition, during the negative scanning potential, the hydrolysis current generated by the reduction reaction was relatively small, with a peak value of about -82mA, indicating that the redox reaction of the lead-carbon composite electrode was a reversible reaction under the cyclic voltammetry test. It also indirectly explained that during the charge and discharge process, the nano-lead sulfate formed in the pores of the lead-carbon composite electrode not only accumulated and gradually thickened the lead-carbon composite electrode with the number of charge and discharge times, thereby increasing the capacitance of the lead-carbon composite electrode, but also the hydrolysis current of the reduction reaction was quite small, indicating that the carbon material in the lead-carbon composite electrode increased the conductivity of the electrode, and the input current was almost completely used for the chemical reaction of lead / lead sulfate, reducing the heat energy loss caused by hydrolysis.

[0148] Please see again Figures 22C to 22D , which respectively present the cyclic voltammetry analysis curves recorded for the 50th cycle and the 500th cycle; it can be seen from the above-mentioned record that the anode peak of the 50th cycle reaches 52mA; the anode peak of the 500th cycle is 111mA, and the curve area of ​​the oxidation reaction is obviously larger than that of the 50th cycle, indicating that after multiple charge and discharge, the electrochemical reaction of the lead-carbon composite electrode increases with the number of charge and discharge times.

[0149] In summary, the lead-carbon composite pole piece manufacturing method, lead-carbon composite pole piece, lead-carbon composite pole piece assembly and lead-carbon composite battery provided by the present invention can achieve the following technical effects, which are not easily achieved by the prior art:

[0150] 1. The method for making the lead-carbon composite electrode provided by the present invention, through a special exhaust design, performs the composite of the lead-carbon electrode under a relatively low temperature state. When the carbon material has very little or no carbon radical, in addition to achieving a dense lead-carbon composite effect, it more effectively increases the capacitance of the lead-carbon composite electrode and reduces the heat loss during charging and discharging. The energy of charging and discharging is fully used for the chemical reaction of lead / lead sulfate. Compared with pure lead electrode, the lead-carbon composite electrode sheet with high lead-carbon interface density, high charging capacity and high energy density is produced in this case. The production method is simple and meets the low-cost and high-efficiency battery production.

[0151] 2. The method for making the lead-carbon composite electrode provided by the present invention utilizes the oxygen radicals brought by the oxidation of the lead material in the low-temperature atmosphere as the source of oxygen radicals for the lead-carbon interface bonding. The carbon material used does not need to be further oxidized, such as carbon cloth without carboxyl groups (COOH). The lead-carbon composite interface achieved has high density, high charging capacity and high energy density, thereby further simplifying the process and improving battery production efficiency.

[0152] 3. The lead-carbon composite electrode provided by the present invention can promote the generation of nano-lead at the lead-carbon chemical interface under the action of unsaturated charge and discharge. With sufficient lead layer thickness, a 3D nanoporous structure can be naturally generated as the battery is used. It can be expected that its charging capacity will increase with the number of charge and discharge cycles, and as the number of charge and discharge cycles increases, its coulombic efficiency will be closer to 100%.

[0153] 4. The lead-carbon composite battery provided by the present invention can be expected to withstand more than 3,000 unsaturated cyclic charge and discharge cycles, with less heat loss and low electrode loss. The lead-carbon composite electrode can further generate a 3D nanopore structure after cyclic charge and discharge. As the number of cyclic charge and discharge cycles increases, its capacity increases, and its service life can be expected to be long. It is also suitable for green electricity, such as microgrid energy storage for intermittent power generation such as wind power, solar energy, and tidal power.

[0154] However, the above description is only an illustration of the preferred embodiment of the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make other improvements based on the above description, but these improvements still fall within the scope of protection defined by the claims of the present invention.
