By improving the deep-drawing and forming performance of the aluminum-plastic film, the energy density of the battery can be increased. The aluminum-plastic film includes an inner layer, an aluminum foil layer and an outer layer stacked in sequence. In order to make the aluminum-plastic film have excellent deep-drawing and forming performance, it is mainly achieved by adjusting the layer structure at this stage, such as increasing the thickness of the aluminum foil layer, the thickness of the outer layer, etc. These methods have limited improvement in the deep-drawing and forming performance.

[0031] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below. If the specific conditions are not specified in the embodiments, they are carried out according to conventional conditions or conditions recommended by the manufacturer. If the manufacturer of the reagents or instruments used is not specified, they are all conventional products that can be purchased commercially.

[0032] As described in the background of the present invention, the prior art has the problem that there is no polypropylene film with improved deep drawing performance and good electrolyte resistance. In order to solve the above problems, Figure 1 As shown, in the first aspect of the present invention, a polypropylene film 1 for aluminum-plastic film is provided, the polypropylene film 1 comprises a heat-sealing layer 13, a core layer 11 and a corona layer 12 which are stacked in sequence, the material forming the core layer 11 comprises a first polypropylene and a first polyolefin elastomer, the mass content of the rubber phase in the first polypropylene is 15% to 25%, and the melting point of the first polyolefin elastomer is 100 to 160°C.

[0033] In the specific implementation process of the present invention, the polypropylene film 1 for aluminum-plastic film can be used as the inner layer of the aluminum-plastic film. At this time, the heat sealing layer 13 plays a packaging role, the core layer 11 plays an overall supporting role, and the corona layer 12 is attached to the aluminum foil layer 2 to play a bonding role.

[0034] In the polypropylene film 1 used for the aluminum-plastic film of the present invention, the core layer 11 is an important component of the aluminum-plastic film, and the quality of its performance directly affects the performance and quality of the aluminum-plastic film. The material forming the core layer 11 includes a first polypropylene and a first polyolefin elastomer, that is, the core layer 11 is obtained by film-forming a slurry formed by the first polypropylene and the first polyolefin elastomer.

[0035] Specifically, the first polypropylene is a thermoplastic, which includes a polypropylene matrix formed by polymerization of propylene monomers. The first polypropylene also includes a rubber phase, which can be a copolymer (such as ethylene-propylene rubber) formed by polymerization of ethylene monomers and propylene monomers. The rubber phase can form a dispersed phase in the polypropylene matrix, and the rubber phase content directly affects the physical properties of the first polypropylene, such as elasticity, impact resistance, etc., thereby improving the overall performance of the material.

[0036] The mass content of the rubber phase in the first polypropylene is 15% to 25%, for example, 15%, 18%, 20%, 22%, 25% or any two of them. By limiting the rubber phase content in the first polypropylene, the polypropylene film 1 has better toughness and impact resistance, and the deep-drawing forming performance of the aluminum-plastic film formed by the polypropylene film 1 can be improved.

[0037] It should be noted that the first polypropylene sample can be analyzed by infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) to identify the characteristic absorption peaks of the rubber phase therein, and the content of the rubber phase can be calculated by quantitatively analyzing the intensity of these peaks.

[0038] The first polyolefin elastomer can be a polymer copolymerized by propylene and α-olefin (such as ethylene, 1-butene, 1-hexene, etc.), and this type of polymer has good elasticity, heat resistance and chemical resistance. Adding the first polyolefin elastomer to the polypropylene film 1 can improve its performance, such as improving high temperature resistance, chemical resistance, etc., so that the polypropylene film 1 has good high temperature resistance and electrolyte resistance.

[0039] The melting point of the polyolefin elastomer will directly affect its thermal stability. Polyolefin elastomers with higher melting points usually have better thermal stability and can maintain their performance at higher temperatures. In addition, the regularity, crystallinity and molecular weight of the molecular chain will affect the melting point. The higher the regularity of the molecular chain and the greater the crystallinity, the higher the melting point; the larger the molecular weight, the stronger the interaction between the molecular chains and the higher the melting point. The melting point of the first polyolefin elastomer is 100-160°C, for example, 100°C, 110°C, 120°C, 130°C, 140°C, 150°C, 160°C or a range composed of any two of them. By limiting the melting point of the first polyolefin elastomer to 100-160°C, the thermal stability of the polypropylene film 1 can be improved, and the bonding strength between the polypropylene film 1 and the aluminum foil layer 2 can be ensured under high temperature conditions, so that the aluminum-plastic film prepared has better high temperature resistance. When the melting point of the first polyolefin elastomer is 100-160° C., it indicates that the first polyolefin elastomer of the present invention has high molecular chain regularity, high crystallinity, high molecular weight, and strong interaction between molecular chains, which can further improve the high temperature resistance and electrolyte resistance of the formed polypropylene film 1.

[0040] It should be noted that the melting point of the first polyolefin elastomer can be measured by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and the thermal performance parameters such as the melting point of the sample can be obtained by measuring the heat change of the sample during the heating or cooling process. Specifically, the first polyolefin elastomer sample to be tested is ground into fine powder to ensure that the contact area between the sample and the heat is large enough; the weighed sample is placed in a crucible to ensure that the sample is evenly distributed; the crucible containing the sample is placed in a differential scanning calorimeter, and appropriate parameters such as heating or cooling rate and temperature range are set, and heating or cooling is performed according to the set experimental conditions, and the heat change between the sample and the reference is recorded in real time; on the formed differential scanning calorimetry curve, the melting point is usually manifested as an obvious endothermic peak, and the melting point of the first polyolefin can be obtained by analyzing the position of this endothermic peak.

[0041] The polypropylene film 1 used for the aluminum-plastic film of the present invention can improve the impact strength and toughness of the polypropylene film 1 and improve the yield elongation by limiting the composition of the polypropylene film 1 and the physical parameters such as the rubber phase content of the first polypropylene and the melting point of the first polyolefin elastomer, so as to reduce the generation of silver streaks and microcracks during the cold stamping forming process when preparing the aluminum-plastic film, and effectively protect the aluminum foil layer 2 from being over-stretched and generating pinholes during the stamping process, thereby improving the deep stamping forming performance of the aluminum-plastic film formed by the polypropylene film 1. In addition, the ability of the polypropylene film 1 to resist the penetration of polar solvents in the electrolyte can be enhanced, so that the aluminum-plastic film prepared by the polypropylene film has good electrolyte resistance. The polypropylene film 1 has good thermal stability, ensures the bonding strength between the layers of the aluminum-plastic film, and has good high temperature resistance. The aluminum-plastic film made of the polypropylene film 1 is applied to a battery, which is helpful to improve the energy density and safety performance of the battery.

[0042] The present invention does not limit the specific thickness ratio of each layer in the polypropylene film 1, and can be adjusted and obtained according to actual needs. For example, in some embodiments, the thickness of the polypropylene film 1 is 100%, the thickness of the heat sealing layer 13 accounts for 5% to 20%, such as 5%, 8%, 10%, 12%, 15%, 20% or any two of them, the thickness of the core layer 11 accounts for 60% to 90%, such as 60%, 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90% or any two of them, and the thickness of the corona layer 12 accounts for 5% to 20%, such as 5%, 8%, 10%, 12%, 15%, 20% or any two of them. Among them, the thickness of the core layer 11 accounts for 60% to 90% of the thickness of the entire polypropylene film 1, which is an important component of the aluminum-plastic film, and the quality of its performance directly affects the performance and quality of the aluminum-plastic film. By limiting the thickness ratio of each layer, the yield strength and tensile strength of the polypropylene film 1 can be improved.

[0043] The mass content of the rubber phase in the first polypropylene is 15% to 25%. In some embodiments, the mass content of ethylene in the rubber phase of the first polypropylene is 20% to 40%, that is, in this rubber phase, the mass of ethylene accounts for 20% to 40% of the total mass of the rubber phase, for example, 20%, 25%, 30%, 35%, 40% or a range composed of any two of them. By limiting the mass proportion of ethylene, the comprehensive performance of the polypropylene film 1 can be further improved.

[0044] It should be noted that the first polypropylene sample can be analyzed by infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) to identify the characteristic absorption peaks of the rubber phase and the characteristic absorption peaks of the vinyl group. By quantitatively analyzing the intensities of these peaks, the content of the rubber phase and the content of ethylene in the rubber phase can be calculated.

[0045] The present invention does not limit the specific mass content of each component in the material forming the core layer 11, and can be adjusted and obtained according to actual needs. In some embodiments, the mass content of the first polyolefin elastomer in the material forming the core layer 11 is ≤30%. In some preferred embodiments, the mass content of the first polypropylene in the material forming the core layer 11 is 70% to 95%, such as 70%, 75%, 80%, 85%, 90%, 95% or the range of any two thereof, and the mass content of the first polyolefin elastomer is 5% to 30%, such as 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30% or the range of any two thereof.

[0046] In the specific implementation process of the present invention, the heat-sealing layer 13 is in direct contact with the battery core to ensure that the aluminum-plastic film can be tightly bonded to the battery core during the heat-sealing process to form a sealed package.

[0047] In some embodiments, the material forming the heat seal layer 13 includes a second polypropylene and a second polyolefin elastomer, wherein the mass content of the second polypropylene is 90% to 97%, such as 90%, 92%, 95%, 97% or a range consisting of any two thereof, and the mass content of the second polyolefin elastomer is 3% to 10%, such as 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9%, 10% or a range consisting of any two thereof, and the melting point of the second polyolefin elastomer is less than the melting point of the first polyolefin elastomer, which can significantly reduce the heat seal temperature, improve the heat seal strength, and meet the packaging requirements of the battery. Introducing the second polyolefin elastomer into the heat seal layer 13 helps to further improve the deep forming performance and reduce the heat seal temperature to improve the heat seal strength.

[0048] The second polypropylene is a thermoplastic plastic, which includes a polypropylene matrix polymerized from propylene monomers. The second polyolefin elastomer can be a polymer copolymerized from ethylene and α-olefins (such as 1-butene, 1-hexene, etc.). In some preferred embodiments, the melting point of the second polyolefin elastomer is 50-80°C, such as 50°C, 60°C, 70°C, 80°C or any two thereof. By limiting the melting point of the second polyolefin elastomer to 50-80°C, the packaging temperature can be further reduced and the packaging strength can be improved.

[0049] It should be noted that the specific material types of the first polyolefin elastomer and the second polyolefin elastomer can be the same or different, as long as the above melting point requirements are met. For example, in some embodiments, the first polyolefin elastomer and the second polyolefin elastomer are each independently selected from at least one of ethylene-α-olefin elastomer and propylene-α-olefin elastomer.

[0050] In some preferred embodiments, the first polyolefin elastomer is formed by copolymerization of propylene monomer and ethylene monomer, or the first polyolefin elastomer is formed by copolymerization of propylene monomer and 1-butene monomer, and the second polyolefin elastomer is formed by copolymerization of ethylene monomer and 1-butene monomer, or the second polyolefin elastomer is formed by polymerization of ethylene monomer and 1-octene monomer.

[0051] In some preferred embodiments, the weight average molecular weight of the first polyolefin elastomer is 150,000 to 250,000, and the weight average molecular weight of the second polyolefin elastomer is 120,000 to 200,000.

[0052] The present invention does not limit the specific type of polypropylene, as long as the rubber phase and ethylene content in the first polypropylene are guaranteed. In some embodiments, the first polypropylene is a block copolymer polypropylene, and the second polypropylene is a binary random copolymer polypropylene or a ternary random copolymer polypropylene. Specifically, when the first polypropylene is a block copolymer polypropylene, the first polypropylene is a block copolymer formed by polymerization of propylene monomer and ethylene monomer. At this time, the first polypropylene includes propylene homopolymer and ethylene-propylene rubber, wherein the propylene homopolymer is a homopolymer (i.e., a polypropylene matrix) formed by polymerization of propylene monomer, and the ethylene-propylene rubber is a rubber phase formed by copolymerization of ethylene and propylene monomers, which constitutes the total amount of rubber phase in the first polypropylene. When the second polypropylene is a binary random copolymer polypropylene, the second polypropylene can be a random copolymer formed by polymerization of propylene monomer and other olefin monomers (such as ethylene monomer or butene monomer); when the second polypropylene is a ternary random copolymer polypropylene, the second polypropylene can be a random copolymer formed by polymerization of ethylene monomer, propylene monomer and butene monomer. By limiting the specific types of the first polypropylene and the second polypropylene, the comprehensive performance of the polypropylene film 1 can be further improved.

[0053] In some preferred embodiments, the weight average molecular weight of the first polypropylene is 200,000 to 500,000, for example, 200,000, 250,000, 300,000, 350,000, 400,000, 450,000, 500,000 or any two thereof, and the weight average molecular weight of the second polypropylene is 200,000 to 400,000, for example, 200,000, 250,000, 300,000, 350,000, 400,000 or any two thereof.

[0054] The present invention does not limit the material forming the corona layer 12, and it can be a conventional polypropylene material in the art. For example, in some embodiments, the material forming the corona layer 12 includes a third polypropylene, and the third polypropylene includes a binary random copolymer polypropylene, that is, the third polypropylene is a random copolymer formed by polymerization of propylene monomers and other olefin monomers (such as ethylene monomers or butene monomers).

[0055] In some preferred embodiments, the weight average molecular weight of the third polypropylene is 200,000 to 400,000, for example, 200,000, 250,000, 300,000, 350,000, 400,000 or any two thereof.

[0056] like Figure 2 As shown, in the second aspect of the present invention, an aluminum-plastic film is provided, which includes an inner layer, an aluminum foil layer 2 and an outer layer 3 stacked in sequence, the inner layer is the polypropylene film 1 for the aluminum-plastic film provided in the first aspect, the corona layer 12 of the polypropylene film 1 is bonded to one surface of the aluminum foil layer 2, and the other surface of the aluminum foil layer 2 is bonded to the outer layer 3.

[0057] Specifically, the polypropylene film 1 for the aluminum-plastic film comprises a heat-sealing layer 13, a core layer 11 and a corona layer 12 which are stacked in sequence, and in the aluminum-plastic film, the corona layer 12 is attached to the aluminum foil layer 2 to play a bonding effect. It can also be understood that the aluminum-plastic film comprises a corona layer 12, a core layer 11, a heat-sealing layer 13, an aluminum foil layer 2 and an outer layer 3 which are stacked in sequence.

[0058] The polypropylene film 1 can be arranged on one surface of the aluminum foil layer 2 by heat bonding or gluing. The polypropylene film 1 serves as the inner surface of the aluminum-plastic film and will come into contact with the electrolyte and the battery cell after packaging. The outer layer 3 can be arranged on the other surface of the aluminum foil layer 2 by heat bonding or gluing, and serves as the outer surface of the aluminum-plastic film and will come into contact with the outside air after packaging. Due to the inclusion of the above-mentioned excellent polypropylene film 1, the aluminum-plastic film of the present invention has excellent deep-drawing forming performance, high temperature resistance and electrolyte resistance, and can be used as a soft packaging material for the battery cell. In some embodiments, the peeling force of the inner layer of the aluminum-plastic film is greater than 3N / 15mm at 120°C.

[0059] In some embodiments, the thickness ratio of the polypropylene film 1 , the aluminum foil layer 2 , and the outer layer 3 is (10-40):(20-80):(10-40).

[0060] A third aspect of the present invention provides a battery, comprising a battery cell and the aluminum-plastic film provided in the second aspect, wherein the aluminum-plastic film is used to encapsulate the battery cell.

[0061] The aluminum-plastic film of the present invention is mainly used in lithium batteries. Specifically, the battery cell of the present invention can be a lithium battery cell. After the aluminum-plastic film is packaged, the inner layer of the aluminum-plastic film is closely attached to the battery cell, and the polypropylene film 1 is actually in contact with the electrolyte. It can be understood that the corona layer 12 is closely attached to the battery cell. Due to the inclusion of the aluminum-plastic film with excellent performance, the battery of the present invention has both excellent energy density and safety performance, and good packaging performance.
