Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of composite ultra-thin copper foil production, and in particular relates to a high-strength ultra-thin copper foil with a dispersion-strengthened copper composite structure and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] Ultra-thin copper foil usually refers to copper foil with a thickness of less than 9μm. With the growing development of electronic information technology, high-performance lithium batteries require copper foil to develop in the direction of better performance and thinner thickness. Therefore, the demand for ultra-thin copper foil is increasing, especially ultra-thin copper foil with a thickness of 5μm or less. Due to the limitation of production equipment, the thickness of rolled copper foil is difficult to be less than 6μm. At present, the production of ultra-thin copper foil is mainly electroplated copper foil, and the higher the performance requirements of lithium battery copper foil, the more difficult the process is, so that my country's high-end lithium battery copper foil has long relied on imports. Because the thickness of ultra-thin copper foil is less than 9μm, it is very easy to curl and bend during the production and application process, and the mechanical properties of ultra-thin copper foil will also be reduced as the thickness is reduced.

[0003] The Chinese invention patent with publication number CN114045536B discloses a method for preparing a gradient ultra-thin copper foil with both high strength and high ductility, comprising the following steps: step S1, preparing a titanium foil substrate with a clean surface; step S2, mixing and dissolving copper sulfate pentahydrate, concentrated sulfuric acid, and additives in proportion to obtain a deposition electrolyte solution, wherein the amounts of copper sulfate pentahydrate and concentrated sulfuric acid are 140-240 g / L and 100-150 mM, respectively; step S3, preparing copper foil by electrochemical deposition, with a current range of 0-700 mA / cm 2 The obtained copper foil has a uniformly changing gradient structure, and can simultaneously improve the mechanical properties of the copper foil, such as tensile strength and stretchability, while ensuring that it has an ultra-thin thickness of 5-35 μm.
