[0002] With the rapid development of electrical devices such as new energy vehicles and portable electronic devices, secondary batteries, as key energy storage devices, have become a focus of scientific research and industry for improving their energy density, cycle performance, and safety. The diaphragm is a key component of secondary batteries. It is a thin film that separates the positive and negative electrodes during electrolysis and prevents energy loss from direct reactions. The performance of the diaphragm determines the battery's interface structure and internal resistance, which directly impacts the battery's capacity, cycle life, and safety.

[0003] Currently, polyolefin separators are widely used due to their lightweight, flexible, and easy processing. However, due to their inherent structural characteristics, surface hydrophobicity, and low softening temperature, polyolefin separators have the disadvantages of poor wettability and low interfacial properties, which in turn leads to reduced battery cycle performance.

[0021] The diaphragm provided in this application has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0022] The diaphragm provided in the present application includes carboxyl-modified diamond, aluminate coupling agent, carboxylate compound and binder in a specific mass ratio.

The carboxylate compound of a specific structure and the carboxyl-modified diamond cooperate with each other to adjust the mechanical properties of the diaphragm. Further supplemented with a binder, the internal bonding force of the diaphragm is increased and the diaphragm structure is more stable, which helps to prevent the diaphragm from rupturing and being damaged during the charge and discharge process of the battery, thereby ensuring the stability of the battery. In addition, the polar groups of the carboxylate compound and the organic groups in the aluminate coupling agent can interact with the polarity analysis in the electrolyte or the organic solvent in the electrolyte to enhance the affinity of the diaphragm to the electrolyte, thereby improving the wetting properties of the diaphragm.

[0038] Among the methods for modifying polyolefin separators, some researchers have combined inorganic materials with polyolefin separators to create separator materials. However, the chemical properties of inorganic materials and polyolefins differ significantly, resulting in weak interfacial bonding between the two. This can easily cause the inorganic materials to fall off the polyolefin separator during battery use, affecting the separator's stability and service life.

[0039] Based on this, the present application provides a diaphragm that does not contain polyolefin.

[0040] In a first aspect of the present application, a diaphragm is provided, comprising carboxyl-modified diamond, an aluminate coupling agent, a carboxylate compound, and a binder in a mass ratio of (0.04-0.06): (0.8-1.2): (0.2-0.3): (0.4-0.6).

[0041] The carboxylic acid ester compound includes one or more compounds having the structure shown in formula (I):

[0042] .

[0043] Compared to conventional inorganic oxide materials, diamond clusters possess advantages such as large surface area, high porosity, excellent heat dissipation, and a rich array of surface functional groups. These advantages offer broad potential for their application in membrane materials. However, the direct application of nanodiamonds in polymer-containing membranes still faces numerous challenges, including achieving uniform dispersion of the nanodiamonds and polymers, optimizing the structure and morphology of the membrane material, and identifying mechanisms for enhancing electrochemical performance.

[0044] This application uses carboxyl-modified diamond, which has good compatibility with components such as aluminate coupling agents, carboxylate compounds, and binders, thereby overcoming the disadvantage of insufficient dispersion uniformity of inorganic materials. Furthermore, the separator provided in this application includes carboxyl-modified diamond, aluminate coupling agents, carboxylate compounds, and binders in specific mass ratios. The aluminate coupling agent can form a chemical bond between the carboxyl-modified diamond and the binder, enhancing the bonding force and strength between the components. The carboxylate compound with a specific structure synergizes with the carboxyl-modified diamond to adjust the mechanical properties of the separator. The addition of a binder further increases the internal bonding force of the separator and makes the separator structure more stable, which helps prevent separator rupture and damage during the battery's charge and discharge processes, thereby ensuring battery stability. Furthermore, the polar groups of the carboxylate compound and the organic groups of the aluminate coupling agent can interact with the polarity analysis in the electrolyte or the organic solvent in the electrolyte to enhance the separator's affinity for the electrolyte, thereby improving the separator's wettability.

[0045] In summary, the diaphragm provided in this application can effectively improve the wettability and interfacial properties of the diaphragm and improve the electrochemical properties of the secondary battery, such as capacity, coulombic efficiency, and cycle stability, by selecting a specific mass ratio of carboxyl-modified diamond, aluminate coupling agent, carboxylate compound, and binder.

[0046] It is understood that in the present application, the mass ratio of carboxyl-modified diamond, aluminate coupling agent, carboxylate compound and binder can be selected from any value between (0.04-0.06): (0.8-1.2): (0.2-0.3): (0.4-0.6). Specifically, the mass ratio of carboxyl-modified diamond, aluminate coupling agent, carboxylate compound and binder includes but is not limited to 0.04:0.8:0.25:0.5, 0.045:0.8:0.25:0.5, 0.05:0.8:0.25:0.5, 0.053:0.8:0.25:0.5, 0.054:0.8:0.25:0.5, 0.060:0.8:0.25:0.5, 0.061:0.8:0.25:0.5, 0.062:0.8:0.25:0.5, 0.063:0.8:0.25:0.5, 0.064:0.8:0.25:0.5, 0.065:0.8:0.25:0.5, 0.066:0.8:0.25:0.5, 0.067:0.8:0.25:0.5, 0.068:0.8:0.25:0.5, 0.070:0.8:0.25:0.5, 0.071:0.8:0.25:0.5, 0.072:0.8:0.25:0.5 .055: 0.8: 0.25: 0.5, 0.058: 0.8: 0.25: 0.5, 0.06: 0.8: 0.25: 0.5, 0.04: 0.9: 0.25: 0.5, 0.045: 0.9: 0.25: 0.5, 0.05: 0.9: 0.25: 0.5, 0.053: 0.9: 0.25: 0.5, 0.054: 0.9: 0.25: 0.5, 0.055: 0.9: 0.25: 0.5, 0.058: 0.9: 0.25: 0.5, 0.06: 0.9: 0.25: 0.5, 0.04: 1: 0.25: 0.5, 0.045: 1: 0.25: 0.5, 0.05: 1: 0.25: 0.5, 0.053: 1: 0.25: 0.5 , 0.054:1:0.25:0.5, 0.055:1:0.25:0.5, 0.058:1:0.25:0.5, 0.06:1:0.25:0.5, 0.06:1:0.25:0.5, 0.06:1:0.25:0.55, 0.06:1:0.25:0.6 or 0.06:1.2:0.3:0.6, or the range consisting of the above two point values ​​as end values.

[0047] In one example, R 11 and R 12 Each independently selected from C3~C 10 Alkyl or C3~C 10 Halogenated alkyl.

[0048] Furthermore, R 11 and R 12 Each independently selected from C3~C 10 Alkyl or C3~C 10 Halogenated alkyl.

[0049] Furthermore, R 11 and R 12 Each is independently selected from C3 to C8 alkyl. For example, R 11 and R 12 Each is independently selected from -CH2CH2CH2-, -CH2CH2CH2CH2-, -CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2-, -CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2-, -CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2-, -CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2-, or -CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2-.

[0050] In one example, Ar is selected from S1 substituted or unsubstituted C6~C 20 Arylene; S1 is selected from C1~C 10 Alkyl, C1~C 10 haloalkyl or . R 13 Selected from C3~C 10 Alkyl or C3~C 10 For example, Ar is selected from 、 、 、 、 or .

[0051] Further, Ar is selected from C6~C 10 Aromatic group.

[0052] Furthermore, Ar is selected from .

[0053] In one example, the carboxylic acid ester compound includes one or more compounds having the structure shown in formula (II): ; m1 and m2 are each independently 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5.

[0054] Furthermore, the carboxylic acid ester compound includes 、 、 、 and One or more of .

[0055] For example, the carboxylic acid ester compound includes 、 、 、 、 、 、 、 and One or more of .

[0056] The above-mentioned carboxylic acid ester compounds are supplemented with carboxyl-modified diamonds, which can improve the mechanical properties of the diaphragm and make the diaphragm easy to form while maintaining a certain strength. Specifically, the π-π stacking of the aromatic groups in the structure can enhance the interaction between the components and structures inside the diaphragm, thereby improving the mechanical strength of the diaphragm. In addition, the ester groups contained therein can chemically cross-link with the functional groups on the surface of the carboxyl-modified diamond, or the ester groups contained therein can bind to the surface of the carboxyl-modified diamond through hydrogen bonding interactions, which not only enhances the cohesion of the diaphragm material, but also helps to construct a barrier that is conducive to the migration of lithium ions but blocks the direct passage of electrons, thereby enhancing the overall stability of the diaphragm.

[0057] Furthermore, the ester groups in these carboxylic acid ester compounds impart good thermal stability and low volatility to the separator. Furthermore, the polar ester groups interact with polar molecules in the electrolyte, helping to form a stable SEI (solid electrolyte interface) layer, reducing side reactions and thus improving the battery's Coulombic efficiency. Furthermore, the alkyl side chains increase the molecular flexibility and help regulate the wettability of the separator material with the electrolyte, ensuring proper ion conduction without causing liquid leakage.

[0058] In one example, the aluminate coupling agent includes one or more of aluminate coupling agent LS60, aluminate coupling agent LS62, aluminate coupling agent LS821, and aluminate coupling agent NXH-821.

[0059] Based on extensive experience and extensive experimentation, the inventors of this application have discovered that the type of coupling agent plays a significant role in the compatibility of the various components in the diaphragm. Other coupling agents, such as aminosilanes, have the disadvantage of insufficient diaphragm stability when used in combination with carboxyl-modified diamond. Aluminate coupling agents hydrolyze or contain functional groups that can hydrolyze to form Al-O bonds, which allows them to react with the carboxyl groups in carboxyl-modified diamond to adjust their compatibility with the carboxyl-modified diamond. Furthermore, aluminate coupling agents contain long-chain alkyl or other organic end groups, which can also enhance their compatibility with organic binders.

[0060] In one example, the binder includes one or more of polyvinylidene fluoride, styrene-butadiene rubber, and carboxymethyl cellulose.

[0061] Furthermore, the binder includes polyvinylidene fluoride. The rational use of the polyvinylidene fluoride binder not only enhances the internal bonding force of the diaphragm, making the diaphragm structure more solid, but also improves the overall stability of the diaphragm.

[0062] In one example, the steps of preparing the carboxyl-modified diamond include:

[0063] Heat-treating the nanodiamond in air or oxygen environment to prepare the carboxyl-modified diamond;

[0064] Wherein, the surface of the nano-diamond has one or more of hydroxyl, carbonyl and carboxyl functional groups.

[0065] Heat treatment of nanodiamonds with one or more of the following functional groups: hydroxyl, carbonyl, and carboxyl groups, can further activate the carboxyl groups and promote their conversion to carboxyl groups. Heat treatment also helps remove impurities from the nanodiamond surface and promotes oxidation, thereby introducing more oxygen-containing functional groups.

[0066] In one example, the process parameters of the heat treatment include: heating to 400°C~450°C at a heating rate of 3°C / min~5°C / min, and keeping warm for 4h~10h.

[0067] It is understood that the heating rate in the heat treatment step can be selected from any value between 3°C / min and 5°C / min. For example, the heating rate includes but is not limited to 3°C / min, 3.5°C / min, 4°C / min, 4.5°C / min, or 5°C / min. The holding temperature includes but is not limited to 400°C, 410°C, 420°C, 430°C, 440°C, or 450°C. The holding time includes but is not limited to 4 hours, 5 hours, 6 hours, 7 hours, 8 hours, 9 hours, or 10 hours.

[0068] In the present application, the source of nanodiamonds can be commercially available or homemade, as long as the nanodiamond surface has one or more of hydroxyl, carbonyl and carboxyl functional groups.

[0069] For example, the steps for preparing nanodiamonds in this application include:

[0070] a1. Take the carbon source trinitrotoluene and the pressurizing agent cyclotrimethylene trinitramine in a mass ratio of (70-40): (30-60) to obtain the explosive.

[0071] a2. Detonate the object to be exploded in a sealed explosion chamber filled with a cooling medium, wherein the ratio of the volume of the object to be exploded to the volume of the sealed explosion chamber is (0.1-0.5):1; prepare black powder.

[0072] a3. Heat-treating the black powder with hydrochloric acid to remove metal impurities in the black powder and removing graphite and carbon by oxidation to prepare the nanodiamond.

[0073] It is understood that the above-mentioned oxide can be oxidized using either a liquid-phase or vapor-phase method. During the oxidation process, the black powder gradually changes from black to light gray, resulting in light gray nanodiamond powder. Infrared spectroscopy reveals that the diamond surface produced by this preparation method has a variety of oxygen-containing functional groups. These include hydroxyl, carbonyl, carboxyl, ester, and ether groups. The oxygen-containing functional groups cover 10% to 20% of the nanodiamond surface area.

[0074] In one example, the thickness of the diaphragm is 150 μm to 500 μm. For example, the thickness of the diaphragm includes but is not limited to 150 μm, 180 μm, 200 μm, 220 μm, 240 μm, 260 μm, 280 μm, 300 μm, 330 μm, 350 μm, 380 μm, 400 μm, 430 μm, 450 μm, 480 μm, or 500 μm.

[0075] In a second aspect of the present application, there is provided a method for preparing the diaphragm described in any example of the first aspect of the present application, comprising the following steps:

[0076] S10, mixing the carboxyl-modified diamond, the aluminate coupling agent, the carboxylate compound, and the binder in a solvent to prepare a mixed slurry;

[0077] S20, forming the mixed slurry into a film, and drying it to prepare the separator.

[0078] In one example, in step b1, the carboxyl-modified diamond, the aluminate coupling agent, the carboxylate compound, and the binder are mixed in a solvent to prepare a mixed slurry, comprising:

[0079] b1. mixing the carboxyl-modified diamond and the aluminate coupling agent in a first solvent to prepare a first mixed solution;

[0080] b2. mixing the binder with a second solvent to prepare a second mixed solution;

[0081] b3. Mix the first mixed solution and the second mixed solution, add the carboxylate compound and mix to prepare a mixed slurry.

[0082] It is understood that the mixing in each step can be independently performed at room temperature or under heating conditions. For example, the process parameters for mixing under heating conditions include: heating to 40°C to 70°C for mixing.

[0083] For example, in step b3, the process parameters for adding the carboxylate compound and mixing include: mixing at 55° C. to 65° C.

[0084] In one example, the mass-to-volume ratio of the aluminate coupling agent to the solvent in the mixed slurry is (0.005-0.1) g:1 mL. The mass-to-volume ratio of the aluminate coupling agent to the solvent in the mixed slurry includes, but is not limited to, 0.007 g:1 mL, 0.008 g:1 mL, 0.009 g:1 mL, 0.01 g:1 mL, 0.011 g:1 mL, 0.015 g:1 mL, 0.02 g:1 mL, 0.04 g:1 mL, 0.06 g:1 mL, 0.08 g:1 mL, or 0.1 g:1 mL.

[0085] In the preparation method of the present application, the amount of solvent used and the heating treatment temperature of the nanodiamond are both reduced, which effectively reduces energy consumption and reduces the incorporation of impurities.

[0086] In one example, the solvent, the first solvent, and the second solvent are each independently selected from one or more of N-methylpyrrolidone, N,N-dimethylacetamide, and N,N-dimethylformamide.

[0087] In one example, the mixed slurry is formed into a film and dried, and the step of preparing the diaphragm includes: coating the mixed slurry on the surface of the substrate and drying it to prepare the diaphragm.
