Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of batteries, and more specifically to an anti-rolling current collector and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Composite current collectors are battery materials with a "sandwich" structure, consisting of an inner polymer layer, a middle conductive metal layer, and an outer corrosion-resistant material layer. The inner polymer layer serves as the positive electrode, the conductive metal layer as the negative electrode, and the outer corrosion-resistant material provides insulation and protection. The advantages of composite current collectors lie in their high energy density and good cycle life, while also providing sufficient overcharge protection, stable high-current discharge capability, and excellent safety performance. They can be widely used in high-performance battery applications, such as solar cells and lithium-ion batteries. Compared to traditional aluminum or copper foil, composite current collectors can reduce battery costs, increase energy density, and improve safety performance, thus being considered one of the best solutions for achieving high-energy-density batteries.
[0003] In the lithium-ion battery cell manufacturing process, a roll forming process is indispensable. Current roll forming technology results in differences in tension and elongation between the electrode coating and the composite current collector area. This leads to significant tensile stress in the composite current collector area after roll forming, causing wrinkling at the edges of the composite current collector. Consequently, this results in tab folding and poor cutting during subsequent production. To reduce edge wrinkling, most companies have modified the structural design of the roll forming equipment, but the solution has been unsatisfactory. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This invention aims to at least partially solve one of the technical problems in related technologies. The invention provides an anti-rolling pressure current collector and electrode sheet, a battery, and an electrical device. The provided anti-rolling pressure current collector incorporates an anti-rolling pressure thin film layer, in which a hydrogen-bonded cross-linked photoresponsive polymer can cross-link with a cross-linking agent to form a bonded polymer, thereby causing the polymer film to shrink and thus solving the problem of wrinkling at the electrode sheet edges.
[0005] Specifically, the present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0006] A first aspect of the invention provides an anti-rolling current collector, comprising an anti-rolling film layer and a metal layer, the metal layer being located on at least one surface of the anti-rolling film layer; the anti-rolling film layer comprising a hydrogen-bonded crosslinked photoresponsive polymer, a crosslinking agent, and a polymeric material.
[0007] The anti-rolling current collector provided by this invention features an anti-rolling film layer containing a hydrogen-bonded cross-linked photoresponsive polymer, a cross-linking agent, and a polymer material. These three materials form a shrinkable film. During rolling, heating and light exposure reduce stretching in the rolled portion, thus solving the edge wrinkling problem. Furthermore, the hydrogen-bonded cross-linked photoresponsive polymer forms a hydrogen-bonded network under ultraviolet light; breaking these hydrogen bonds softens and expands the polymer. Adding a heat-sensitive cross-linking agent triggers a cross-linking reaction upon heating, forming a three-dimensional network that intercalates the hydrogen-bonded polymer, causing the polymer film to shrink. Therefore, by controlling the conditions of ultraviolet light and the heat-sensitive cross-linking reaction, precise shrinkage of the polymer film can be achieved, thereby solving the edge wrinkling problem.

[0014] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the thickness of the anti-rolling film layer is 1μm to 8μm; the thickness of the metal layer is 100nm to 1000nm.
[0015] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the anti-rolling film layer is formed by melting a hydrogen-bonded crosslinked photoresponsive polymer, a crosslinking agent, and a polymer material, and the anti-rolling film layer is prepared by the following method:
[0016] The hydrogen-bonded cross-linked photoresponsive polymer, cross-linking agent, and polymer material are mixed, heated and melted, and then extruded to obtain polymer slices.
[0017] The polymer slices are crystallized at a predetermined temperature and then dried. The dried polymer slices are then heated and melted, extruded and cast, and cooled to obtain polymer cast sheets.
[0018] The polymer casting is heated and subjected to longitudinal and transverse stretching and shaping to obtain the anti-rolling film layer.
[0019] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the temperature of the first heating and melting is 220 to 260 degrees Celsius.
[0020] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the predetermined temperature is 130 to 180 degrees Celsius.
[0021] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the second heating and melting temperature is 250 to 300 degrees Celsius.

[0023] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the temperature of the transverse stretching is 100 to 130 degrees Celsius, and the stretching ratio is 2:1 to 4:1.

[0032] (2) Hydrogen-bonded crosslinked photoresponsive polymers can form a hydrogen-bonded network under ultraviolet light. Breaking these hydrogen bonds causes the polymer to soften and expand. When a heat-sensitive crosslinking agent is added, these agents undergo a crosslinking reaction upon heating, forming a three-dimensional network that intercalates the hydrogen-bonded polymer, causing the polymer film to shrink. Therefore, by controlling the conditions of ultraviolet light and the heat-sensitive crosslinking reaction, precise shrinkage of the polymer film can be achieved, thereby solving the problem of edge wrinkling.

[0034] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of an anti-rolling current collector according to an embodiment of the present invention, wherein 1 is the anti-rolling film layer, 2 is the metal layer, and 3 is the substrate layer. Detailed Implementation
[0035] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, but should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0036] A first aspect of the invention provides an anti-rolling current collector, comprising an anti-rolling film layer and a metal layer, the metal layer being located on at least one surface of the anti-rolling film layer; the anti-rolling film layer comprising a hydrogen-bonded crosslinked photoresponsive polymer, a crosslinking agent, and a polymeric material.
[0037] According to specific embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 1 As shown, the metal layer is located on both sides of the anti-rolling film layer (located on the outer side of the anti-rolling film layer), where 1 is the anti-rolling film layer and 2 is the metal layer. According to a specific embodiment of the present invention, as... Figure 2 As shown, it further includes a substrate layer, the anti-rolling film layer is located on both sides of the substrate layer (located on the outside of the substrate layer), and the metal layer is located on both sides of the anti-rolling film layer (located on the outside of the anti-rolling film layer), wherein reference numeral 1 is the anti-rolling film layer, reference numeral 2 is the metal layer, and reference numeral 3 is the substrate layer.
[0038] The anti-rolling current collector provided by this invention features an anti-rolling film layer containing a hydrogen-bonded cross-linked photoresponsive polymer, a cross-linking agent, and a polymer material. These three materials form a shrinkable film. During rolling, heating and light exposure reduce stretching in the rolled portion, thus solving the edge wrinkling problem. Furthermore, the hydrogen-bonded cross-linked photoresponsive polymer forms a hydrogen-bonded network under ultraviolet light; breaking these hydrogen bonds softens and expands the polymer. Adding a heat-sensitive cross-linking agent triggers a cross-linking reaction upon heating, forming a three-dimensional network that intercalates the hydrogen-bonded polymer, causing the polymer film to shrink. Therefore, by controlling the conditions of ultraviolet light and the heat-sensitive cross-linking reaction, precise shrinkage of the polymer film can be achieved, thereby solving the edge wrinkling problem.
[0039] According to an embodiment, the mass ratio of the hydrogen-bonded crosslinked photoresponsive polymer, the crosslinking agent, and the polymeric material is (2.5-10):(2.5-10):(80-95). According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the mass ratio of the hydrogen-bonded crosslinked photoresponsive polymer, the crosslinking agent, and the polymeric material is (2.5-6):(2.5-6):(88-95). According to a preferred embodiment, the mass ratio of the hydrogen-bonded crosslinked photoresponsive polymer, the crosslinking agent, and the polymeric material is (3-5):(3-5):(90-94). For example, 5:5:90.
[0040] According to the embodiments, the hydrogen-bonded crosslinked photoresponsive polymer is a hydrogen-bonded linear azobenzene polymer. These hydrogen-bonded linear azobenzene polymers are linear backbone azobenzene liquid crystal polymers with high hydrogen bond crosslinking density, which can be synthesized by addition polymerization of azobenzene glycol and diisocyanate. This can be obtained by referring to the text of Chinese patent application number 202010686469.0 and publication number CN111875765B. This material is simple to synthesize, introducing a high density of hydrogen bonds into its linear structure, giving the material good crystallinity and liquid crystallization, ensuring good processability while improving its mechanical properties. Under ultraviolet light irradiation, the azobenzene groups inside this material undergo photoisomerization, lowering the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the material. Increasing the ultraviolet light intensity, the photothermal effect of azobenzene raises the temperature of the material, promoting dynamic exchange of hydrogen bonds within the material. By utilizing these two phase transitions as reversible phases and the high-temperature stable crystalline phase as the stationary phase, we can achieve precise, photo-controlled editing and restoration of permanent and temporary shapes simply by adjusting the light intensity. The advantage of this method lies in using the synergistic effect of the azobenzene polymer's photothermal effect and photoinduced Tg reduction to separate the overlapping reversible phase transition temperature zones, achieving multiple shape memories and restorations at lower temperatures. The lower shape restoration temperature also helps avoid thermal creep, and high shape fixation and restoration rates can be obtained even with only linear structures.
