[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of secondary batteries, and in particular to a composite current collector, an electrode plate, a secondary battery and an electrical device. Background Art
[0002] The statements herein merely provide background information related to the present application and do not necessarily constitute prior art.
[0003] In recent years, as the application scope of secondary batteries becomes wider and wider, secondary batteries are widely used in energy storage power supply systems such as hydropower, thermal power, wind power and solar power stations, as well as in many fields such as electric tools, electric bicycles, electric motorcycles and electric vehicles.
[0004] As secondary batteries have made great progress, higher requirements have been placed on their energy density and safety. Compared with conventional current collectors such as copper foil and aluminum foil, composite current collectors are more conducive to improving the energy density and safety performance of batteries. However, the current composite current collectors have problems such as low elongation at break, low tensile modulus, and easy wrinkling and shrinkage, which affect the subsequent process and battery performance.
[0005] Therefore, seeking a composite current collector with high elongation at break and tensile modulus and not prone to wrinkling and shrinkage is one of the key areas of focus for technicians in this field. Summary of the invention

[0011] The above-mentioned composite current collector of the present application is compounded with the conductive layer and the polymer support layer through the bonding layer, and the bonding layer includes polyimide, inorganic particles and a binder; through the mutual cooperation of the polyimide and the inorganic particles in the bonding layer, the tensile modulus of the composite current collector can be effectively improved, and the wrinkling and shrinkage at the pole ear of the composite current collector after the active material layer is coated and dried can be alleviated. In addition, the composite current collector is different from the traditional composite current collector that directly forms a conductive layer on the polymer support layer by evaporation or magnetron sputtering. The conductive layer in the composite current collector can be compounded with the polymer support layer by coating the bonding layer, so there is no problem of large thermal damage to the polymer support layer caused by evaporation or magnetron sputtering, so the composite current collector can have a higher elongation at break.

[0020] In any embodiment, the thickness of the first sub-adhesive layer is 500 nm to 1500 nm, and can be 600 nm to 1200 nm. In this way, the tensile modulus of the composite current collector can be better improved, and the reliability of the tab welding of the composite current collector can be enhanced.
[0021] In any embodiment, the thickness of the second sub-adhesive layer is 300 nm to 700 nm. In this way, the peeling force between the conductive layer and the polymer support layer can be further improved, and the composite current collector can have better tab welding reliability.
[0022] In any embodiment, the inorganic particles include one or more of boehmite, silicon carbide, silicon oxide, aluminum oxide, calcium carbonate, titanium oxide and graphene. In this way, the above-mentioned inorganic particles can cooperate with polyimide to effectively improve the strength of the composite current collector, and these inorganic particles will not react with the electrolyte.

[0030] In any embodiment, the surface roughness of the conductive layer is Ra, and 0.1 μm < Ra < 2 μm. In this way, not only can the active material layer have good adhesion to the composite current collector, but also the electrode sheet can have a lower resistance.

[0054] At present, due to the great development of secondary batteries, higher requirements are also put forward for the energy density and safety of secondary batteries. Compared with conventional current collectors such as copper foil and aluminum foil, composite current collectors are more conducive to improving the energy density and safety performance of batteries. However, the current composite current collectors have the problems of low elongation at break and low tensile modulus. The composite current collector is prone to wrinkling and shrinkage after coating the active material layer, which affects the subsequent process and battery performance. In this regard, the present application improves the structure of the composite current collector so that it has a higher elongation at break and tensile modulus, and is not prone to wrinkling and shrinkage, which is beneficial to the subsequent process and improves battery performance.
[0055] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the first aspect of the present application provides a composite current collector 10, which includes a polymer support layer 11, a bonding layer 12 and a conductive layer 13. The bonding layer 12 is disposed on at least one surface of the polymer support layer 11, and the bonding layer 12 includes polyimide, inorganic particles and a binder; the conductive layer 13 is disposed on the surface of the bonding layer 12 away from the polymer support layer 11.
[0056] The conventional composite current collector 10 usually forms a conductive layer 13 on the polymer support layer 11 by evaporation or magnetron sputtering. When forming the conductive layer 13, the polymer support layer 11 will be greatly thermally damaged, so that the film surface of the composite current collector 10 is easily deformed, and the elongation at break of the composite current collector 10 is reduced. In this regard, the conductive layer 13 can be formed on the polymer support layer 11 by glue coating. However, the tensile modulus of the composite current collector 10 formed by the glue coating method is low. When the active material layer is formed on the composite current collector 10, the pole ear of the composite current collector 10 is easily affected by the drying stress and wrinkled and shrunk, which affects the subsequent process and increases the internal resistance (DCR) of the battery.
[0057] The composite current collector 10 of the present application is compounded with the conductive layer 13 and the polymer support layer 11 through the adhesive layer 12, and the adhesive layer 12 includes polyimide, inorganic particles and a binder; through the mutual cooperation of the polyimide and the inorganic particles in the adhesive layer 12, the tensile modulus of the composite current collector 10 can be effectively improved, and the wrinkling and shrinkage at the pole ear of the composite current collector 10 can be alleviated. In addition, compared with the traditional composite current collector 10 in which the conductive layer 13 is formed by evaporation or magnetron sputtering, the conductive layer 13 of the composite current collector 10 of the present application can be compounded with the polymer support layer 11 by coating the adhesive layer 12, and there is no problem of causing significant thermal damage to the polymer support layer 11, so the composite current collector 10 can have a higher elongation at break.
[0058] It can be understood that the bonding layer 12 can be provided on only one surface of the polymer support layer 11, and accordingly, the conductive layer 13 can be provided on only one surface of the polymer support layer 11; or the bonding layer 12 can be provided on two opposite surfaces of the polymer support layer 11, and accordingly, the conductive layer 13 can be provided on both surfaces of the polymer support layer 11.
[0059] In some embodiments, the mass fraction of polyimide in the bonding layer 12 is 30% to 70%, the mass fraction of inorganic particles is 5% to 10%, and the mass fraction of binder is 20% to 60%. When the mass fractions of polyimide, inorganic particles, and binder in the bonding layer 12 are within the above ranges, the tensile modulus of the composite current collector can be effectively improved.
[0060] In some embodiments, the mass fraction of polyimide in the bonding layer 12 is 30% to 55%, the mass fraction of inorganic particles is 5% to 10%, and the mass fraction of the binder is 35% to 60%. By controlling the mass fraction of polyimide in the bonding layer 12 within the range of 30% to 55%, the mass fraction of inorganic particles within the range of 5% to 10%, and the mass fraction of the binder within the range of 35% to 60%, the tensile modulus of the composite current collector 10 can be further improved, and the wrinkling and shrinkage at the pole ear of the composite current collector 10 can be further alleviated, while at the same time, a greater peeling force can be provided between the conductive layer 13 and the polymer support layer 11.
[0061] It can be understood that the mass fraction of polyimide in the bonding layer 12 can be but not limited to 30%, 31%, 32%, 33%, 34%, 35%, 36%, 37%, 38%, 39%, 40%, 41%, 42%, 43%, 44%, 45%, 46%, 47%, 48%, 49%, 50%, 51%, 52%, 53%, 54%, 55%; the mass fraction of inorganic particles in the bonding layer 12 can be but not limited to 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9%, 10%; the mass fraction of the binder in the bonding layer 12 can be but not limited to 35%, 38%, 40%, 42%, 44%, 45%, 46%, 48%, 50%, 52%, 54%, 55%, 56%, 58%, 60%.
[0062] In some embodiments, the thickness d1 of the bonding layer 12 is 600nm to 2000nm; optionally, the thickness d1 of the bonding layer 12 is 800nm to 1500nm. Controlling the thickness d1 of the bonding layer 12 within the above range can better improve the tensile modulus of the composite current collector 10 and better alleviate the wrinkling and shrinkage at the pole ear. It can also avoid the situation where the peeling force between the conductive layer 13 and the polymer support layer 11 is too small due to the bonding layer 12 being too thin, resulting in a low welding tensile force and an increase in the DCR of the battery cell; it can also avoid the problem that the risk of pole ear welding failure increases due to the bonding layer 12 being too thick, resulting in cold welding, thereby increasing the DCR of the battery cell. It can be understood that the thickness d1 of the bonding layer 12 can be, but is not limited to, 600 nm, 700 nm, 800 nm, 900 nm, 1000 nm, 1100 nm, 1200 nm, 1300 nm, 1400 nm, 1500 nm, 1600 nm, 1700 nm, 1800 nm, 1900 nm, or 2000 nm.
[0063] See also Figure 2 In some embodiments, the bonding layer 12 includes a first sub-bonding layer 121 and a second sub-bonding layer 122. The first sub-bonding layer 121 is disposed on at least one surface of the polymer support layer 11, and the first sub-bonding layer 121 includes polyimide, inorganic particles and a binder; the second sub-bonding layer 122 is disposed on the surface of the first sub-bonding layer 121 away from the polymer support layer 11, and the conductive layer 13 is disposed on the surface of the second sub-bonding layer 122 away from the first sub-bonding layer 121, and the second sub-bonding layer includes a binder. In other words, in this embodiment, the bonding layer 12 includes a two-layer structure, wherein the first sub-bonding layer 121 close to the polymer support layer 11 includes polyimide, inorganic particles and a binder; the second sub-bonding layer 122 away from the polymer support layer 11 can be a simple binder layer. In this way, the peeling force between the conductive layer 13 and the polymer support layer 11 can be further improved, and the tensile modulus of the composite current collector 10 as a whole can be further improved, thereby further alleviating the wrinkling and shrinkage at the tab.
[0064] In some embodiments, the mass fraction of polyimide in the first sub-bonding layer 121 is 60% to 70%, the mass fraction of inorganic particles is 5% to 10%, and the mass fraction of binder is 20% to 30%. Controlling the mass fraction of polyimide in the first sub-bonding layer 121 within the range of 60% to 70%, the mass fraction of inorganic particles within the range of 5% to 10%, and the mass fraction of binder within the range of 20% to 30% can not only well improve the tensile modulus of the composite current collector 10, well alleviate the wrinkling and shrinkage at the pole ear, but also improve the peeling force between the conductive layer 13 and the polymer support layer 11.
[0065] It can be understood that the mass fraction of polyimide in the first sub-bonding layer 121 can be but not limited to 60%, 61%, 62%, 63%, 64%, 65%, 66%, 67%, 68%, 69%, 70%; the mass fraction of inorganic particles can be but not limited to 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9%, 10%; the mass fraction of the binder can be but not limited to 20%, 21%, 22%, 23%, 24%, 25%, 26%, 27%, 28, 29%, 30%.
[0066] In some embodiments, the thickness d2 of the first sub-bonding layer 121 is 500nm to 1500nm; optionally, the thickness d2 of the first sub-bonding layer 121 is 600nm to 1200nm. Controlling the thickness of the first sub-bonding layer 121 in the bonding layer 12 within the above range can better improve the tensile modulus of the composite current collector 10, improve the reliability of the tab welding of the composite current collector 10, and make the DCR of the battery cell at a normal level. It can be understood that the thickness d2 of the first sub-bonding layer 121 can be, but is not limited to, 500nm, 550nm, 600nm, 650nm, 700nm, 750nm, 800nm, 850nm, 900nm, 950nm, 1000nm, 1050nm, 1100nm, 1150nm, 1200nm, 1250nm, 1300nm, 1350nm, 1400nm, 1450nm, 1500nm.
[0067] In some embodiments, the thickness d3 of the second sub-bonding layer 122 is 300nm to 700nm. The second sub-bonding layer 122 can be a simple adhesive layer, in which polyimide and inorganic particles may not be added. In this way, the peeling force between the conductive layer 13 and the polymer support layer 11 can be further improved, and the composite current collector 10 can have better reliability of the tab welding. It can be understood that the thickness d3 of the second sub-bonding layer 122 can be, but is not limited to, 300nm, 350nm, 400nm, 450nm, 500nm, 550nm, 600nm, 650nm, 700nm.
[0068] In some embodiments, the inorganic particles contained in the bonding layer 12 may be one or more of boehmite, silicon carbide, silicon oxide, aluminum oxide, calcium carbonate, titanium oxide, and graphene. Adding the above inorganic particles to the bonding layer 12 can cooperate with polyimide to effectively improve the strength of the composite current collector 10, and these inorganic particles will not react with the electrolyte. The D50 particle size of the inorganic particles may be 1 nm to 100 nm.
[0069] In some embodiments, the binder in the bonding layer 12 includes one or more of a composition containing a multifunctional isocyanate and a polyester polyol compound, polyurethane, epoxy resin, polyacrylate, polyvinyl acetate, unsaturated polyester, phenolic resin, urea-formaldehyde resin, modified polyolefin resin, silicone resin, ethylene-acrylic acid copolymer, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer, acrylic resin, polycarbonate and polyamide. Optionally, the binder includes one or more of a composition containing a multifunctional isocyanate and a polyester polyol compound and polyurethane. In some specific examples, the polyurethane includes one or more of thermoplastic polyurethane and reactive polyurethane. The above-mentioned binder can play a good bonding effect between the polymer support layer 11 and the conductive layer 13, so that the conductive layer 13 and the polymer support layer 11 have a large peeling force.
[0070] In some embodiments, the composite current collector 10 further includes a passivation layer 14, which is disposed between the bonding layer 12 and the conductive layer 13. The conductive layer 13 of the composite current collector 10 and the polymer support layer 11 are bonded together by the bonding layer 12 containing a binder. When the composite current collector 10 is used in a battery, the electrolyte may penetrate between the bonding layer 12 and the conductive layer 13, thereby causing micro-corrosion to the conductive layer 13.

The surface roughness of the conductive layer 13 of the composite current collector 10 affects the adhesion of the active material layer to the composite current collector 10 and the resistance of the electrode sheet. Controlling the surface roughness Ra of the conductive layer 13 within the range of 0.1 μm < Ra < 2 μm can not only provide good adhesion between the active material layer and the composite current collector, but also result in a lower resistance for the electrode sheet. It can be understood that the surface roughness Ra of the conductive layer 13 can be, but is not limited to, 0.11 μm, 0.15 μm, 0.2 μm, 0.3 μm, 0.4 μm, 0.5 μm, 0.6 μm, 0.7 μm, 0.8 μm, 0.9 μm, 1.0 μm, 1.1 μm, 1.2 μm, 1.3 μm, 1.4 μm, 1.5 μm, 1.6 μm, 1.7 μm, 1.8 μm, 1.9 μm.
[0079] In some embodiments, the composite current collector 10 of the first aspect of the present application can be prepared by the following method:
[0080] Provide a polymer support layer 11 and a conductive layer 13;
[0081] Bond the polymer support layer 11 and the conductive layer 13 together through a bonding paste; and
[0082] Cure the bonding paste to form a bonding layer 12 between the polymer support layer 11 and the conductive layer 13. The bonding paste includes polyimide, inorganic particles, and a binder.

In addition, before the composite, a metal layer can be formed as the conductive layer 13 on a thick carrier by evaporation or electrolysis, the metal layer can be peeled off from the thick carrier, and then the metal layer and the polymer support layer 11 can be composited by coating the adhesive slurry to form a composite current collector 10.

The first sub-bonding layer 121 is disposed on a side close to the polymer support layer 11, and the second sub-bonding layer 122 is disposed on a side away from the polymer support layer 11. The first sub-bonding layer 121 includes polyimide, inorganic particles and a binder, and the second sub-bonding layer 122 may only include a binder.

[0088] In some embodiments, when the bonding layer 12 is a double-layer structure, the polymer support layer 11 and the conductive layer 13 can be composited by the following method: gravure coating the bonding slurry of the first sub-bonding layer 121 on the metal foil as the conductive layer 13, baking the metal foil coated with the bonding slurry in an oven at 80°C to 110°C, and then thermally composite the baked metal foil with the bonding slurry coated side with the polymer support layer 11, and the composite current collector is matured to make the adhesive fully adhered, and then the metal foil can be thinned by corrosion thinning process according to design requirements to obtain a suitable thickness. In addition, a metal layer can be formed as the conductive layer 13 on a thick carrier by evaporation or electrolysis before composite, the metal layer can be peeled off from the thick carrier, and then the bonding slurry is coated to composite the metal layer with the polymer support layer 11 to form a composite current collector 10.
[0089] In some embodiments, before gravure coating the bonding slurry on the conductive layer 13, the surface of the conductive layer 13 coated with the bonding slurry may be first passivated to form a passivation layer 14. Specifically, the passivation layer 14 may be formed by compounding a passivation material on the conductive layer 13 by gravure printing, evaporation or magnetron sputtering, and then gravure coating the bonding slurry on the passivation layer 14.

In this way, the electrode plate 20 adopts the composite current collector 10 of the first aspect of the present application. Since the composite current collector 10 has a high tensile modulus, the tabs are not easily wrinkled and shrunk when the active material layer 21 is formed, and the tab welding reliability of the electrode plate 20 is good.
[0091] In some embodiments, the electrode plate 20 may be a positive electrode plate or a negative electrode plate, depending on the material of the active material layer 21 and the material of the conductive layer 13.

[0381] It can be seen from the above Examples 1 to 58 that the composite current collector of the present application has a larger tensile modulus and elongation at break, and the pole piece using the composite current collector of the present application has a smaller pole lug shrinkage rate, a larger pole piece welding tensile force and a smaller U-shaped resistance.
[0382] By comparing Examples 1 to 7 and Example 8, it can be seen that by controlling the content of polyimide in the bonding layer to 30% to 55% and the content of the binder to 35% to 60%, the composite current collector can have a larger tensile modulus while further improving the welding tensile force of the pole piece, reducing the U-shaped resistance of the pole piece, and making the pole piece have a higher elongation at break.
[0383] By comparing Examples 9 to 15, it can be seen that controlling the content of inorganic particles in the bonding layer to 5% to 10% can enable the composite current collector to have a larger tensile modulus and elongation at break, while enabling the pole piece to have a smaller tab shrinkage rate, a larger pole piece welding tensile force and a smaller U-shaped resistance, and its overall performance is better.
[0384] By comparing Examples 16 to 21, it can be seen that controlling the thickness of the adhesive layer within the range of 600nm to 2000nm can make the composite current collector have a larger tensile modulus and elongation at break, while making the pole piece have a smaller tab shrinkage, a larger pole piece welding tension and a smaller U-shaped resistance, and has excellent comprehensive performance. Furthermore, controlling the thickness of the adhesive layer within the range of 800nm to 1500nm can further improve the comprehensive performance.
[0385] By comparing Examples 26 to 32, it can be seen that when the bonding layer adopts a double-layer structure, the content of polyimide in the first sub-bonding layer is controlled within the range of 60% to 70%, and the content of the binder is controlled within the range of 20% to 30%. This can enable the composite current collector to have a larger tensile modulus and elongation at break, while allowing the pole piece to have a smaller pole ear shrinkage rate, a larger pole piece welding tensile force and a smaller U-shaped resistance, thereby having more excellent comprehensive performance.
[0386] By comparing Examples 33 to 39, it can be seen that when the bonding layer adopts a double-layer structure, controlling the content of inorganic particles in the first sub-bonding layer to 5% to 10% can enable the composite current collector to have a larger tensile modulus and elongation at break, while at the same time enabling the pole piece to have a smaller pole ear shrinkage rate, a larger pole piece welding tensile force and a smaller U-shaped resistance, thereby having more excellent overall performance.
[0387] By comparing Examples 40 to 46, it can be seen that when the bonding layer adopts a double-layer structure and the thickness of the first sub-bonding layer is controlled within the range of 500nm to 1500nm, the composite current collector can have a larger tensile modulus and elongation at break, while the pole piece can have a smaller pole lug shrinkage rate, a larger pole piece welding tensile force and a smaller U-shaped resistance, thereby having more excellent overall performance.
[0388] By comparing Comparative Examples 1 to 3 with Example 20, and Comparative Examples 4 to 6 with Example 49, it can be seen that: when polyimide and / or inorganic particles are not used in the bonding layer, the tensile modulus of the composite current collector is significantly reduced, the pole ear shrinkage rate is increased, the pole piece welding tension is reduced, the U-type resistance is increased, and its comprehensive performance is significantly reduced.
