Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of battery separator, in particular to a water-based coating slurry, a lithium battery separator and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] In recent years, with the rapid development of new energy vehicles, lithium batteries have become a crucial research field. As the power source of new energy vehicles, the safety and performance of lithium batteries are increasingly valued. The separator plays a key role in the battery, mainly separating the positive and negative electrodes to prevent short circuits, while allowing ions to pass through to complete the charging and discharging process of the battery.

[0003] Most of the existing lithium battery coated separators on the market are prepared based on two coating methods, namely oil coating and water coating. Oil coating has greater environmental hazards and high cost; although water coating is low in cost, few use high molecular materials as the main coating, mostly using alumina and boehmite as the main body, and adding high molecular adhesives as the coating material. Most of the high molecular materials suitable for water coating are in the form of solvent or viscous emulsion, which has the characteristics of improving adhesion but cannot be used as the main body of water coating. At the same time, most of the water-coated separators have poor affinity for electrolyte, resulting in poor wettability of electrolyte, poor liquid absorption and liquid retention rate of the separator, and poor cycle performance of the battery. SUMMARY

[0004] Therefore, one object of the present application is to provide a water-based coating slurry, a lithium battery separator and a preparation method thereof. The water-based coating slurry is coated on the base film to form a lithium battery separator, which can improve the wettability of the separator to the electrolyte, and enhance the air permeability and manganese ion absorption of the separator.

[0005] In one aspect of the present application, a preparation method of a water-based coating slurry is provided. According to an embodiment of the present application, the method comprises:

[0007] Step 2, mixing the dilute solution with water, then emulsifying, and removing the organic solvent in the sulfonic acid-based furan polyamide to obtain a mixed solution;

[0008] Step 3, mixing the mixed solution with inorganic particles and adhesives to obtain a water-based coating slurry;

[0009] The sulfonic acid-based furan polyamide is prepared by the following method:

[0010] The sulfonated diamine, triethylamine and an organic solvent are mixed under an inert gas atmosphere, and then the mixture is reacted at 60-70 DEG C to obtain a sulfonic acid ammonium salt diamine solution; the sulfonic acid ammonium salt diamine solution is cooled to -10-20 DEG C, and furan dicarboxylic chloride is added to obtain a slurry; the slurry is mixed with a base to obtain a sulfonic acid furan polyamide.

[0011] The sulfonic acid furan polyamide is diluted to obtain a diluted solution, which is then mixed with water, further emulsified, and then separated from residual organic solvent by using a separation device to obtain an aqueous mixed solution, which is then mixed with inorganic particles and adhesives to obtain an aqueous coating slurry.

[0012] The sulfonic acid furan polyamide is prepared by mixing sulfonated diamine, triethylamine and an organic solvent, and then reacting at 60-70 DEG C; the sulfonated diamine and triethylamine react to generate sulfonic acid ammonium salt diamine, which has stronger polarity and can be better dissolved in polar organic solvents, and can polymerize with furan dicarboxylic chloride to graft sulfonic acid groups to the polyamide and increase the content of sulfonic acid groups in the polyamide.

[0013] The carbonyl and sulfonic acid groups in the aqueous coating slurry have good affinity to electrolyte, can make the electrolyte quickly diffuse along the molecular chain, and the hollow structure can further absorb and retain electrolyte; and the long chain formed by polymerization can retain its shrinkage capacity in a high temperature environment.

[0014] In summary, the air permeability and manganese ion absorption amount of the lithium battery separator are improved, the aqueous coating slurry does not contain organic solvents, the furan dicarboxylic chloride used as raw material can be derived from bio-based raw materials, is environmentally friendly, the hydrophilic performance of the aqueous coating slurry is enhanced, and the application prospect is more promising.
