Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of cathode rollers, and specifically relates to a cathode roller for electrolytic copper foil with an ultra-large diameter, and specifically also relates to a manufacturing process for a cathode roller for electrolytic copper foil with an ultra-large diameter. Background Art
[0002] In recent years, lithium battery technology has been committed to improving energy density, and thinner lithium battery copper foil can reduce battery weight and thus increase the energy density of lithium batteries, thus becoming a key development trend of lithium battery copper foil. Leading power battery manufacturers are gradually switching to battery manufacturing processes related to ultra-thin copper foil of 6μm and below. Since 2020, the copper foil market size has reached 74 billion yuan. Driven by huge market demand, the production capacity of lithium battery copper foil continues to expand.
[0003] In this context, reducing costs and increasing efficiency becomes particularly important. Whether the production capacity of a single cathode roller can be increased, thereby increasing production efficiency, has become the focus of major copper foil manufacturers. There are two ways to increase the production capacity of a single cathode roller. One is to increase the diameter of the cathode roller, and the other is to increase the width of the cathode roller.
[0004] At present, the maximum width of the cathode roller used in China is 1820mm. If the width is increased, the consistency of the titanium cylinder will be difficult to ensure. In addition, the cathode roller conducts electricity from the end faces on both sides to the roller surface. If the width is too large, the current in the middle area of the cathode roller will be smaller, and the generated copper foil will be less uniform. At the same time, the roller surface of the wide cathode roller may collapse, affecting product quality and even more seriously endangering personnel safety. Therefore, a cathode roller with an ultra-large diameter for electrolytic copper foil and its manufacturing process are needed to help solve this problem. Summary of the invention
