Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of new energy battery technology, and specifically to a method for increasing the dyne value of battery foil surface. Background Technology

[0002] Lithium-ion batteries are a key component for the power output of new energy vehicles. Aluminum foil, as the positive electrode material, significantly impacts the lifespan, consistency, and rate discharge performance of lithium-ion batteries. Currently, high-end lithium-ion battery aluminum foil requires high dimensional accuracy, a clean and uniform surface, and freedom from scratches and other defects. With the continuous development of the new energy vehicle industry, the thickness of high-end lithium-ion battery aluminum foil is constantly decreasing, while the requirements for tensile strength and elongation are increasing. To ensure discharge performance and elongation, existing lithium-ion battery aluminum foil raw materials often use alloys with an aluminum content of over 99%. To improve the tensile strength of the finished lithium-ion battery aluminum foil, a second cold-rolled billet recrystallization annealing process is performed to ensure that the tensile strength of the foil raw material is ≥185 N / mm². 2 In order to achieve a final tensile strength of ≥250 N / mm² 2 Technical requirements.

[0003] Currently, the publicly disclosed production process for aluminum foil used in ordinary lithium batteries involves the following steps: aluminum foil for lithium batteries is heated and melted into an aluminum alloy melt according to a certain alloy composition ratio; the aluminum alloy melt, after processes such as slag removal, grain refinement, degassing, slag removal and filtration, is continuously cast and rolled into a billet using a casting and rolling mill; the billet is then cold-rolled, recrystallized and annealed, and then cold-rolled and finished to obtain a billet for lithium battery aluminum foil; the billet is then rough-rolled, fine-rolled and slit by a roller mill to obtain the finished aluminum foil for lithium batteries.

[0004] With the continuous development of new energy vehicles, the battery industry using aluminum foil as the current collector has flourished. Battery foil has also become a high value-added product in the aluminum processing industry. As an important indicator affecting the coating of battery materials, the dyne value of battery foil surface is currently a problem. The vast majority of aluminum foil manufacturers at home and abroad have low product quality due to dyne value issues, and have been unable to enter the high-end power battery foil market, which has affected the development of high-end batteries.

The pH value is adjusted, and stabilizer, emulsifier, white oil and initiator are added. Under inert gas protection, the mixture is stirred and reacted.
