Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of battery separator technology, specifically to a high heat-resistant and pressure-sensitive organic lithium-ion battery separator coating slurry, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] In the construction system of lithium-ion batteries, the separator, as a core component, bears a crucial dual function. First, it precisely achieves physical isolation between the positive and negative electrodes, constructing a solid safety barrier, effectively avoiding the risk of short circuits, and providing fundamental protection for the safe operation of the battery. Second, its ingenious microstructure design can efficiently guide the free migration of lithium ions within it, thereby ensuring the smooth progress of the battery's charge and discharge cycles and laying a solid foundation for the battery's high performance.
[0003] Currently, the commonly used method in the industry to improve the heat resistance of battery separators is to coat the separator surface with conventional ceramic materials. However, this conventional ceramic coating process has significant limitations—to achieve the ideal thermal shrinkage effect, it is often necessary to significantly increase the thickness of the ceramic coating, which directly leads to a significant increase in the weight of the resulting lithium-ion battery separator. Therefore, there is an urgent need to conduct targeted research to develop a novel lithium-ion battery separator that combines excellent properties such as lightweight, high heat resistance, and strong adhesion to meet the industry's pressing need for high-performance battery materials.

[0027] As a further technical solution, the coating method includes dot coating or roller coating.
[0028] The high-performance aerogel matrix of this invention employs a quaternary monomer copolymerization system to precisely control the molecular chain rigidity of the polymer aerogel (polybenzoxazole-polyamide copolymer aerogel), exhibiting a superior thermal decomposition temperature compared to traditional polyimide (PI). Furthermore, it fully preserves the gradient pore structure formed by nanoscale interweaving through supercritical CO2 fluid, balancing mechanical strength and porosity. This establishes a lightweight and high-strength basic framework, replacing the traditional ceramic particle stacking structure and reducing membrane density. Simultaneously, trifluoromethyl (-CF3) groups / amide groups / oxazole rings are directionally grafted into the main molecular chain of the polymer aerogel (polybenzoxazole-polyamide copolymer aerogel) and synergistically interact with N-heterocyclic rings to form a dense hydrophobic barrier layer. This achieves a dual effect: significantly inhibiting material hygroscopicity while enhancing surface electrophobic polarization. Data shows that water absorption is reduced compared to the unmodified system, and high-temperature dimensional stability is improved. Submicron-sized porous ceramic particles are then uniformly anchored in the gaps between the aerogel framework to construct a three-dimensional "point-line-surface" conduction channel; the surface hydroxyl groups of the ceramic particles form hydrogen bonds with the carbonyl groups of the polymer aerogel (polybenzoxazole-polyamide copolymer aerogel), strengthening the interfacial bonding force; performance gains: the electrolyte wetting time is shortened and the room temperature ionic conductivity is improved.
[0029] Through a three-pronged innovation encompassing materials, structure, and process, this invention successfully resolves the inherent contradictions of "thickness / weight / brittleness" in traditional ceramic-coated separators, providing a novel separator solution for high-energy-density lithium batteries that combines safety protection with efficient ion transport. This invention achieves greater integration between the ceramic and separator through polymer aerogel (polybenzoxazole-polyamide copolymer aerogel), porous ceramics, and a compounded pressure-sensitive coating slurry. The coated separator exhibits high thermal stability, excellent wettability, and cold-pressing properties.
[0030] The working principle and beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: This invention, for the first time, incorporates polymer aerogel (polybenzoxazole-polyamide copolymer aerogel) into the battery separator coating slurry, significantly improving the heat resistance and adhesion of the battery separator. The polybenzoxazole-polyamide copolymer is a lyotropic liquid crystal heterocyclic semi-trapezoidal polymer. The high strength, high modulus, chemical corrosion resistance, and high temperature resistance of the polybenzoxazole-polyamide copolymer are due to the high aromaticity of its molecular chains. The polybenzoxazole-polyamide copolymer has a low density, a tensile strength approximately twice that of Kevlar, a tensile modulus six times that of steel, significantly higher heat resistance than other high-performance polymers, and low water absorption.

Preparation of lithium battery separator: Dot coating: The slurries prepared in Examples 1-8 and Comparative Examples 1-2 are pumped into a matrix dot coating system. The slurries are coated on one side of the base film using a dot coating method (coated on any side of the base film, the base film thickness is 5.1 μm, and other thicknesses and areal densities are 3.56 g / m²). 2(Alternatively, a base film can be used.) The base film is dried at 80°C for 10 minutes to obtain a coating, thus obtaining a lithium-ion battery separator; the thickness increase is 1.0 μm, and the coating amount per micrometer is 1.1 g / m². 2 .
[0046] Roller coating: The slurry prepared in Example 3 is pumped into a grooved roller coating structure, and the slurry is coated on one side of the base film by roller coating (coated on any side of the base film, the thickness of the base film is 5.1 μm, and the other thicknesses and areal densities are 3.56 g / m²). 2 (Alternatively, a base film can be used.) The base film is dried at 80°C for 10 minutes to obtain a coating, thus obtaining a lithium-ion battery separator; the thickness increase is 1.8 μm, and the coating amount per micrometer is 1.1 g / m². 2 .
[0047] The aforementioned thickness increment and coating amount per micrometer were tested according to the following test method: Thickness increment (μm) test: The thickness of the battery separator was tested according to the method in GB / T 36363-2018 "Polyolefin separator for lithium-ion batteries". The thickness increment of the lithium battery separator was calculated according to the formula: thickness increment = battery separator thickness - base film thickness. The thickness of the wet-process polyethylene base film was 5.1 μm. Coating amount per micrometer (g / m) 2 Test: The areal density of the battery separator was tested according to the method in GB / T 36363-2018 "Polyolefin Separators for Lithium-ion Batteries". Coating amount = (Battery separator areal density - Base film areal density) / Coating thickness increment; where the areal density of wet-process polyethylene base film is 3.56 g / m³. 2 .
[0048] The following performance tests were performed on the battery separator: Liquid absorption rate and liquid retention rate: The test standard is QB / T 2303.11-2008; Ionic conductivity and thermal shrinkage: The test standard is GB / T 36363-2018, in which the temperature for testing ionic conductivity is 40℃ and the relative humidity is 45%~50%; Heat shrinkage, thickness and areal density: tested according to GB / T 36363-2018; Wettability: Characterizes the affinity between the separator and the electrolyte. The higher the wettability value, the better the wettability and the stronger the liquid absorption and retention, which can result in lower battery internal resistance. The wettability v is calculated as: v = h / t, where h is the wetting height (the height of electrolyte penetration in the vertical direction of the separator), in mm, and t is the wetting time, in min. The electrolyte used in the wettability test is a mixture of electrolyte and solvent. The electrolyte is lithium hexafluorophosphate, and the solvent is a mixture of ethylene carbonate (EC) and diethyl carbonate (DEC) (the volume ratio of EC to DEC is 1:1).

The adhesion strength is obtained when the electrode is a positive electrode and when it is a negative electrode. Positive electrode adhesion strength: The diaphragm and positive electrode are cut to 25×150mm. The hot press temperature is set to 25℃ and the pressure to 1000Kg. The diaphragm and positive electrode are preheated for 1 second and then cold-pressed for 1 second. The adhesion strength of the cold-pressed positive electrode is tested using an electronic tensile testing machine. The diaphragm and positive electrode are peeled until the tensile distance of the electronic tensile testing machine reaches 50mm. The speed of the electronic tensile testing machine is 300mm / min, and the peel angle is 180°. Positive electrode bonding strength = peel force divided by the tensile distance of the electronic tensile testing machine; Peel force: The average value of the force collected by the electronic tensile testing machine during the peeling process of the diaphragm and the positive electrode sheet. The bonding strength test of the cold-pressed positive electrode sheet is calculated based on the data of the tensile distance between 10 and 40 mm, that is, the bonding strength of the positive electrode sheet = peel force between 10 and 40 mm divided by 30 mm. The positive electrode is a ternary lithium nickel cobalt aluminum oxide with the chemical formula LiNi. 0.8 Co 0.15 Al 0.05 The O2 electrode is a carbon-based graphite electrode (containing 91% carbon).
