Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of lithium-ion battery membranes, in particular to a dry-process electrode for a hybrid capacitor and a preparation method thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of the lithium battery industry, people's pursuit of battery performance is gradually increasing. Currently, most wet preparation processes are used, which have the following problems: First, organic solvents such as NMP are often used, which are highly toxic, difficult to recycle, and have slow volatilization. Second, the drying process suffers from high energy consumption, low efficiency, and uneven coating. Third, during the preparation process, the slurry suffers from poor stability and dispersibility, which limits the conductive performance.

[0003] Therefore, dry electrode preparation technology has become a hot research topic at this stage. In dry electrode preparation, fibrillation is a key process. It mainly uses mechanical shear force to stretch the PVDF molecular chains to form a continuous fiber network. This network is interspersed between the active material and the conductive agent particles, forming a three-dimensional interwoven structure, thereby achieving a self-supporting film of the electrode material under solvent-free conditions. The fibrillation efficiency directly affects the electrode's porosity, mechanical strength, and the formation of ion transport channels.

[0004] At present, the preparation of dry electrodes has the following problems: First, traditional PVDF is not compatible with the polarity of the active material, and the fibrillation process is prone to large pores and poor compactness, low fiber formation efficiency, and poor network continuity; second, traditional PVDF has insufficient chemical compatibility with active materials and lacks a dynamic repair mechanism, resulting in a greatly reduced cycle life; third, the traditional fiber network only serves as a physical support and has not been chemically modified for lithium ion transmission, resulting in poor conductivity; fourth, the active material has the problems of high strength and easy agglomeration, resulting in large voids, decreased compactness, mechanical properties, adhesion, and battery performance.

[0005] In summary, it is of great significance to solve the above problems and prepare a dry electrode for hybrid capacitors. Summary of the Invention

[0018] In a further embodiment, in the toluene-deionized water, the mass ratio of toluene to deionized water is 19-20:1.

[0019] More optimally, the raw materials of the composite adhesive include a modified adhesive, PVDF, and a fluorinated acrylate copolymer in a mass ratio of 1:5-8:0.05-0.2.

[0020] More optimally, the raw materials of the modified binder include the following components: 8 to 12 parts by mass of epoxy-terminated modified polymer, 1.5 to 2 parts of ethylenediamine, 0.1 to 0.2 parts of triethylamine, 1.5 to 2.5 parts of α-lipoic acid, 1.5 to 2 parts of 1-ethyl-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide, and 0.2 to 0.4 parts of 4-dimethylaminopyridine;

[0021] The raw materials of the epoxy-terminated modified polymer include the following components, calculated by mass: 5-7 parts of dimethyldichlorosilane, 4-6 parts of trifluoropropylmethyldichlorosilane, 3-5 parts of methylhydrogendichlorosilane, 0.5-1 part of trifluoromethanesulfonic acid, 9-10.5 parts of allyl-modified cyclodextrin, 2-3 parts of allyl glycidyl ether, 2.5-3.5 parts of bisallyloxymethyl 18-crown-6, and 0.2-0.4 parts of Karstedt catalyst.

[0031] In a further embodiment, the conductive agent includes one or more of graphene, carbon nanotubes, and conductive carbon black.

[0032] In a further solution, the graded rolling adopts a four-stage rolling and secondary circulation process; the roller gaps of each level in the first rolling are 1200μm, 800μm, 400μm, and 300μm respectively, and the roller gap in the secondary circulation is increased by 280μm.

[0033] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0034] This solution combines composite binders with modified active materials to synergistically promote fibrillation efficiency, reduce porosity, and obtain dry-process electrodes with dense structure, strong adhesion, and high mechanical strength. The cycle life and conductivity of the prepared batteries are also improved.

[0035] The composite binder is created by mixing the modified binder with traditional PVDF and a fluorinated acrylate copolymer in a specific mass ratio. The fluorinated acrylate acts as a compatibilizer to reduce interfacial tension, allowing the binder to be evenly distributed on the surface of the active material. The three factors work together to further improve fibrillation efficiency.

[0036] In the preparation of the modified binder, fluorinated linear polysiloxane is used as the base. Compared with traditional spherical polysiloxane, linear fluorinated linear polysiloxane has higher viscosity and strength. Its fluorinated groups form intermolecular hydrogen bonds with the fluorine atoms of PVDF, increasing its compatibility with traditional PVDF. At the same time, the introduction of fluorinated silicone as a flexible chain segment can alleviate the volume expansion stress during the electrode cycle and improve the cycle life.

[0037] However, there is still a polarity difference between linear fluorinated linear polysiloxane and traditional PVDF, which leads to gaps and reduced electrode compactness. To solve this problem, the scheme uses hydrosilylation to graft cyclodextrin onto the silicon-oxygen chain segment to further reduce the polarity difference. At the same time, the hydrophobic cavity of cyclodextrin encompasses the organic groups on the surface of lithium iron phosphate, further reducing the gap and improving the compactness.

[0038] However, despite improving the tightness of the electrode, the binder still has problems with ion transport efficiency, resulting in reduced battery conductivity. To address this issue, the solution simultaneously grafted crown ether groups. On the one hand, its macrocyclic structure can complex with lithium ions, providing more ion transport channels and improving conductivity. On the other hand, crown ethers can form van der Waals forces with traditional PVDF, further improving adhesion.

[0039] However, during the battery's charge and discharge cycles, the pole pieces generate periodic stress due to the volume expansion of the active material. Traditional linear binder segments lack reversible crosslinking points. As the use time increases, the stress accumulates to a certain level, causing molecular chain breakage and film cracking. This can cause the active material to fall off, significantly reducing conductive properties such as cycle life. To address this issue, the proposed solution introduces α-lipoic acid into the binder backbone through epoxyamino ring opening and amidation reactions, forming a dynamic disulfide bond network. On the one hand, the disulfide bonds achieve reversible breakage through the dynamic network, avoiding stress concentration segment breakage, greatly improving adhesion and cycle life. On the other hand, during the fibrillation process, the disulfide bonds promote entanglement of the fiber network, allowing for re-crosslinking, fixing the fibrillated structure, and improving fibrillation efficiency.

[0040] To reduce the strength of the active material, improve its dispersibility, and address the agglomeration problem, the proposed method uses aluminum oxide to coat lithium iron phosphate and dope it with fluorine. This approach offers the following advantages: First, aluminum oxide has high chemical stability and excellent mechanical properties. When coated on the surface of lithium iron phosphate, it effectively inhibits particle agglomeration, alleviates volume change stress during charge and discharge, and reduces particle breakage. Second, aluminum oxide forms hydrogen or chemical bonds with the hydroxyl groups on the lithium iron phosphate surface, increasing interfacial forces with PVDF, improving compatibility, and ensuring uniform dispersion of the lithium iron phosphate during fibrillation, thereby increasing electrode density. Second, fluorine-doped aluminum oxide exhibits enhanced durability and charge retention, further improving cycle stability. It is important to note that the amount of aluminum oxide formed needs to be controlled. When aluminum isopropoxide accounts for less than 1wt% of the lithium iron phosphate powder, the aluminum oxide layer fails to fully cover the lithium iron phosphate particles, resulting in increased agglomeration. When aluminum isopropoxide accounts for more than 3wt% of the lithium iron phosphate powder, the aluminum oxide layer becomes too thick, reducing ion transport. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
