Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of two-component polyurethane structural adhesives, and more particularly to a two-component polyurethane thermally conductive structural adhesive that is easy to bond to blue films and its preparation method. Background Technology
[0002] New energy battery aluminum casings are often covered with an insulating film. During the bonding process, this insulating film frequently detaches, mainly because its outer surface is coated with an anti-stick coating. This insulating film is also known as the cell blue film. For example, Chinese patent CN105751640A describes a cell blue film. Figure 1 The battery cell blue film 100 includes an anti-stick coating 10, a first PET polyester film 20, a first blue acrylic resin 30, a second PET polyester film 40, and a second blue acrylic resin 50. Currently, most anti-stick coatings are silicone-based. Therefore, on new energy PACK assembly lines, the battery cell blue film usually needs to undergo surface treatment to improve the adhesion.
[0003] Two-component polyurethane thermally conductive structural adhesives are commonly used to bond the insulating film and liquid cooling plate of battery cells. However, the high thermal conductivity two-component polyurethane thermally conductive structural adhesives commonly used in the market contain a large amount of thermally conductive filler, which is not conducive to bonding the blue film of the battery cell containing a release coating (anti-stick coating). Therefore, improving the bonding strength of the two-component polyurethane thermally conductive structural adhesive to the blue film of the battery cell is of great significance for improving the overall reliability of the battery.
[0004] Currently, a common method is to change the polarity of the two-component polyurethane thermally conductive structural adhesive by adding low-polarity resin to improve the adhesion strength to the battery cell blue film. Chinese patent CN109593507A describes the use of low-polarity resin to hydrogenate hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene to improve the adhesion strength of the two-component polyurethane adhesive to the battery cell blue film. Chinese patent CN111534268A selects hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene or dimer acid modified polyester polyol to improve the adhesion of the two-component polyurethane adhesive to the battery cell blue film.
[0005] Existing technologies use the addition of low-polarity polyols to improve the adhesion of two-component polyurethane thermally conductive structural adhesives to the battery cell blue film. However, the Tg values of low-polarity polyols are very low; for example, the Tg value of hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene polyol is -70℃. This greatly affects the Tg value of the two-component polyurethane thermally conductive structural adhesive, which in turn leads to a decrease in the adhesion performance of the two-component polyurethane thermally conductive structural adhesive to hard materials such as metals. This reduces the universality of the two-component polyurethane thermally conductive structural adhesive in the bonding application of battery cell blue film and aluminum liquid cooling plate, resulting in a trade-off.
[0006] In addition, hydroxyl-terminated polybutadiene or dimer acid modified polyester polyols have not been widely adopted in China. Currently, the two types of polyols on the market are POLY BD (now sold to Pacific Avenue Capital) under Total and Priplast series products of Cargill. The current market price of these two products ranges from 60 to 120 yuan / kg, which is much higher than the price of 10 to 50 yuan / kg of traditional polyurethane polyol resins. The high price of low polar polyols limits the widespread use of two-component polyurethane thermally conductive structural adhesives containing low polar polyols.
[0007] Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a two-component polyurethane thermally conductive structural adhesive that is easy to bond with blue film and its preparation method to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention
[0008] The purpose of this invention is to provide a two-component polyurethane thermally conductive structural adhesive that is easy to bond with blue films and its preparation method, which solves the problem of effectively improving the bonding performance of existing thermally conductive structural adhesives to insulating films, aluminum substrates, etc. at a lower cost.

[0018] Optionally, the polyol component and / or the isocyanate component may further include a color paste.
[0019] Secondly, the present invention provides a method for preparing a two-component polyurethane thermally conductive structural adhesive, comprising the following steps:
[0020] Preparation of polyol components: Prepare raw materials according to the formula, add the raw materials required for polyol components to a mixer, vacuum, and stir evenly to obtain the polyol components;

[0022] The obtained polyol component and the isocyanate component are mixed at a volume ratio of 1:1 for use.
[0023] Optionally, the terminal isocyanate prepolymer is prepared as follows: a polyether polyol with a molecular weight of 2000-4000 is heated to 115-125°C, stirred while being evacuated to a negative pressure state, dehydrated, cooled to 65-75°C, purged with nitrogen, added isocyanate monomer, heated to 75-85°C, and reacted at this temperature for 3-4 hours, while being stirred and cooled to 55-65°C to obtain the terminal isocyanate prepolymer.

[0089] Table 1. Components and their proportions in the examples and comparative examples.
[0090]
[0091] The initial viscosities of the polyol and isocyanate components in Examples 1, 2, 3, Comparative Example 1, and Comparative Example 2 were tested, and the aging viscosity of the polyol component was also tested. The test results are shown in Table 2. A two-component polyurethane thermally conductive structural adhesive was obtained by mixing the polyol and isocyanate components in Examples 1, 2, 3, Comparative Example 1, and Comparative Example 2 at a volume ratio of 1:1. The two-component polyurethane thermally conductive structural adhesive was coated between two aluminum substrates to obtain AL-AL samples. The two-component polyurethane thermally conductive structural adhesive was coated between an aluminum substrate and a blue film of a battery cell to obtain AL-blue film samples. After plasma treatment of the blue film of the battery cell, the two-component polyurethane thermally conductive structural adhesive was coated between an aluminum substrate and a plasma-treated blue film of the battery cell to obtain AL-plasma-treated blue film samples. Performance tests were conducted on the AL-AL, AL-blue film, and AL-plasma-treated blue film samples. The shear strength and T-peel data of the two-component polyurethane thermally conductive structural adhesive were measured. The test results and the test standard methods are shown in Table 2.
[0092] Table 2 Test Results
[0093]
[0094] Note: AF refers to the interface failure between the blue film and the adhesive. Blue film failure means that the bonding strength between the structural adhesive and the blue film is high.
[0095] As shown in Table 2, the two-component polyurethane thermally conductive structural adhesive with the addition of special isocyanate-based silane coupling agents (IPES, IPMS) to the polyol component improves the adhesion of the blue film. Without IPES or IPMS, the adhesion strength of the blue film is significantly weaker. In this application, the special isocyanate-based silane coupling agent is added to the polyol component and reacts with the polyol to generate a siloxane-terminated telechelic resin. This resin is embedded in the cross-linked structure during the curing of the two components, resulting in a two-component polyurethane thermally conductive structural adhesive that improves the adhesion performance of the blue film and the aluminum substrate. KH560 in Comparative Example 1 is a commonly used silane coupling agent. In Comparative Example 2, the isocyanate-based silane coupling agent accounts for 4.08 wt% of the liquid component in the polyol component. The viscosity of the polyol component increases significantly with storage time, and the storage stability decreases significantly. The resulting two-component polyurethane thermally conductive structural adhesive shows poorer adhesion to AL-AL, and the shear strength of the AL-blue film also deteriorates.

However, it should be understood that such modifications and variations fall within the scope and spirit of the invention as set forth in the claims. Furthermore, the invention described herein may have other embodiments and can be implemented or carried out in various ways.
