Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of thermal conductive adhesive technology, specifically relating to a silane-modified one-component thermal conductive adhesive, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous development of new energy vehicles, the requirements for power batteries are also becoming increasingly stringent. For the internal components of power battery modules, there are increasingly more requirements for heat transfer, vibration damping, sealing, solder joint protection, and so on. Therefore, the requirements for sealants are also becoming more stringent.

[0003] Silane-modified sealants combine the advantages of silicone and polyurethane sealants and are widely used in industrial applications. However, conventional silane-modified sealants cannot simultaneously meet the requirements of battery packs for both thermal conductivity and flame retardancy.

[0004] Therefore, developing a silane-modified one-component thermally conductive adhesive that combines excellent thermal conductivity and flame retardancy is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved in this field. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the present invention aims to provide a silane-modified one-component thermally conductive adhesive, its preparation method, and its application. The silane-modified one-component thermally conductive adhesive possesses excellent thermal conductivity, adhesion, and flame retardant properties, which can meet the usage requirements of power battery modules.

[0006] To achieve this objective, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a silane-modified one-component thermally conductive adhesive, wherein the raw materials for preparing the silane-modified one-component thermally conductive adhesive comprise the following components in parts by weight:

[0015] The raw materials for the silane-modified one-component thermally conductive adhesive provided by this invention include specific proportions of silane-modified polymer, plasticizer, unmodified alumina A, titanate-modified aluminum hydroxide, silane-modified alumina, and thixotropic agent. All three fillers possess excellent flame retardancy and thermal conductivity. In particular, the titanate-modified aluminum hydroxide, obtained through activation modification with titanate, has a monomolecular film on its surface, significantly improving its flame retardancy and thermal conductivity compared to untreated aluminum hydroxide. Simultaneously, the silane-modified alumina effectively avoids the problems of agglomeration, oil-powder separation, and sedimentation that easily occur with ultrafine alumina due to its strong polarity and large specific surface area. Therefore, this invention selects a silane-modified polymer as the matrix and adds unmodified alumina, titanate-modified aluminum hydroxide, and silane-modified alumina fillers for modification, supplemented with thixotropic agent and plasticizer, resulting in a silane-modified one-component thermally conductive adhesive that combines excellent thermal conductivity, adhesion, and flame retardancy, meeting the requirements of power battery modules.

[0089] In Tables 1 and 2, the amount of each component is in parts by weight.

[0090] Table 1

[0091]

[0092]

[0093] Table 2

[0094]

[0095] The preparation methods of the silane-modified one-component thermally conductive adhesives provided in Examples 1-9 and Comparative Examples 1-6 include the following steps:

[0096] The silane-modified polymer, plasticizer, unmodified alumina A, titanate-modified aluminum hydroxide (or unmodified aluminum hydroxide), silane-modified alumina (or unmodified alumina), thixotropic agent, and heat stabilizer were stirred at 700 rpm for 50 min, heated to 110°C, stirred at 500 rpm for 120 min, then cooled to 40°C, a dehydrating agent was added, and the mixture was stirred at 250 rpm for 20 min. Then, a silane coupling agent was added, and the mixture was stirred at 250 rpm for 25 min. Finally, a curing agent was added, and the mixture was stirred at 250 rpm for 25 min. The mixture was then evacuated to a vacuum degree of not less than 980 mbar to obtain the silane-modified one-component thermally conductive adhesive.

[0097] Performance testing:

[0098] (1) Adhesion performance: The test was conducted according to GB / T43747-2024 "Evaluation of the adhesion of sealant by strip peeling method", and the damage area and damage type were determined according to GB / T 16997-1997 "Representation of the main failure types of adhesives". The test substrate was aluminum 5052. In the test results, CF represents cohesive failure and AF represents interfacial peeling. For example, 10CF represents 100% cohesive failure and 5CF / 5AF represents 50% cohesive failure + 50% interfacial peeling.

[0099] (2) Flame retardant performance: The test was conducted in accordance with the method provided in standard GB / T13488-1992 "Determination of the flammability of rubber by vertical burning method".

[0100] (3) Thermal conductivity: The thermal conductivity was tested according to the method provided in ASTM D5470-2017, "Standard Test Method for Thermal Transfer Properties of Thermally Conductive Insulating Materials".

[0101] The silane-modified single-component thermally conductive adhesives provided in Examples 1-9 and Comparative Examples 1-6 were tested according to the above test methods, and the test results are shown in Table 3.

[0102] Table 3

[0103]

[0104]

[0105] According to the data in Table 3:

[0106] The bonding performance tests of the silane-modified single-component thermally conductive adhesives provided in Examples 1-9 show that the peel strength with aluminum 5052 can reach 80% cohesive failure, the flame retardant performance can reach FV-0 level, and the thermal conductivity is 1.19-1.39W / mK, which combines excellent bonding performance, flame retardant performance and thermal conductivity.

[0107] The bonding performance tests of the silane-modified single-component thermally conductive adhesives provided in Examples 1 to 3 showed that the peel strength with aluminum 5052 could reach 100% cohesive failure, the flame retardant performance could reach FV-0 level, and the thermal conductivity was 1.31 to 1.39 W / mK.

[0108] Compared with Example 1, the thermally conductive adhesives provided in Comparative Examples 1 to 6 all fail to simultaneously possess excellent adhesion, thermal conductivity, and flame retardant properties. The specific analysis is as follows:

[0109] Among them, the thermally conductive adhesive provided in Comparative Example 1 has poor adhesion performance because it does not contain unmodified alumina, but only titanate-modified aluminum hydroxide and silane-modified alumina. The peel strength with aluminum material 5052 can only reach 30% cohesive failure.

[0110] The thermally conductive adhesive provided in Comparative Example 2 did not contain titanate-modified aluminum hydroxide, but instead contained unmodified aluminum hydroxide, resulting in a significant decrease in adhesion, flame retardancy, and thermal conductivity.

[0111] The thermally conductive adhesive provided in Comparative Example 3, which did not contain titanate-modified aluminum hydroxide but only unmodified aluminum oxide and silane-modified aluminum oxide, also showed a significant decrease in adhesion, flame retardancy and thermal conductivity.

[0112] The thermally conductive adhesives provided in Comparative Examples 4 and 5 showed a significant decrease in both bonding and thermal conductivity due to the absence of silane-modified alumina and the addition of unmodified alumina.

[0113] The thermally conductive adhesive provided in Comparative Example 6 had poor adhesion, flame retardancy, and thermal conductivity because no fillers were added.

[0114] The applicant declares that this invention illustrates a silane-modified one-component thermally conductive adhesive, its preparation method, and its application through the above embodiments. However, this invention is not limited to the above embodiments, meaning that this invention does not necessarily rely on the above embodiments for implementation. Those skilled in the art should understand that any improvements to this invention, equivalent substitutions of raw materials, additions of auxiliary components, and selection of specific methods, etc., all fall within the protection and disclosure scope of this invention.
