The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.
[0023] Figure 1 This is a schematic flowchart illustrating a method for preparing lithium-ion battery copper foil according to an embodiment of the present invention. It should be noted that if substantially the same result is obtained, the method of the present invention is not necessarily identical. Figure 1 The illustrated process sequence is limited. For example... Figure 1 As shown, the method includes the following steps: Step S1: Mix the mixed solution containing hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, and copper sulfate, solution A, and solution B evenly to obtain the electroplating solution; wherein, the mass ratio of the mixed solution containing hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, and copper sulfate, solution A, and solution B is 150,000~200,000:1~3:1~2; solution A is made by dissolving sulfonated hydroxyethyl cellulose and modified polyethylene glycol in pure water; solution B is made by dissolving sodium polydisulfide dipropane sulfonate, tetrahydrothiazole copper sulfate, and small molecule protein in pure water; the small molecule protein is obtained by enzymatic hydrolysis and purification of small molecule protein from fish skin, with a molecular weight of 3,000~5,000.
[0024] In step S1, in the mixed solution, The mass concentration is 85~95 g / L, and the mass concentration of sulfuric acid is 95~115 g / L. The mass concentration is 25~30 mg / L. Furthermore, in the mixed solution, the content of impurity cations is controlled as follows: ≤1.5mg / L ≤1.0mg / L ≤1.0mg / L ≤3mg / L ≤3 mg / L. The concentrations of sulfonated hydroxyethyl cellulose are 2.0~3.0 g / L, modified polyethylene glycol is 0.5~1.5 g / L, sodium polydisulfide dipropane sulfonate is 3.0~4.5 g / L, tetrahydrothiazole copper sulfate is 2.5~3.4 g / L, and small molecule protein is 1.0~2.0 g / L. In solution B, the concentration ratio of small molecule protein to sodium polydisulfide dipropane sulfonate is 1:2~3. In solution A, the modified polyethylene glycol is amino-modified polyethylene glycol with a molecular weight of 8000~12000, and the mass ratio of modified polyethylene glycol to sulfonated hydroxyethyl cellulose is 1:1.5~2.0.
[0025] Step S2: The electroplating solution is fed into an electrolytic cell for electrolysis to obtain raw foil.
[0026] In step S2, the electroplating solution is fed into an electrolytic cell and electrolyzed at an electrolysis temperature of 50-55°C, a current density of 4500-6000 A / m², and a flow rate of 50-60 m³ / h to obtain a green foil with a thickness of 6-10 μm. Preferably, the electrolysis process uses a titanium-based coated cathode roller, with a surface roughness Ra controlled at 0.1-0.3 μm, achieving a combination of ultra-thin thickness (6-10 μm) and low roughness characteristics, adapting to the thin coating requirements of silicon-based anodes, and reducing the interfacial contact resistance by more than 15%.
[0027] Step S3: Perform anti-oxidation treatment and annealing on the raw foil to obtain lithium battery copper foil.
[0028] In step S3, the anti-oxidation treatment involves immersing the raw foil in an anti-oxidation solution for 3-5 seconds. The anti-oxidation solution is a mixture containing hexavalent chromium ions and phosphate ions, with a pH value of 2.0-2.5, a temperature of 25-35°C, a concentration of hexavalent chromium ions of 1.2-1.6 g / L, and a concentration of phosphate ions of 1.5-2.0 g / L.
[0029] Preferably, the annealing process employs a stepped annealing method, including a low-temperature stage (e.g., 70-80°C) and a high-temperature stage (e.g., 90-100°C). The low-temperature stage primarily eliminates internal stress generated during electrolysis, preventing grain coarsening caused by rapid high-temperature annealing. The high-temperature stage promotes atomic diffusion, repairs microscopic defects, and controls the degree of recrystallization, achieving a balance between strength and toughness. This embodiment utilizes a stepped annealing process, which improves strength retention by 10-15% compared to traditional single-temperature annealing.
[0030] Preferably, the annealing process involves annealing at 70-80°C for 12-20 hours, followed by annealing at 90-100°C for 8-16 hours, and then naturally cooling to obtain ultra-high strength and low brittleness lithium-ion battery copper foil. Preferably, the annealing process is carried out under inert gas protection, for example, nitrogen with a purity ≥99.99% and a flow rate of 0.5-1.0 m³ / h.
[0031] In one embodiment of the present invention, a method for preparing lithium-ion battery copper foil involves selectively adsorbing sulfonated hydroxyethyl cellulose onto the cathode surface to refine the copper grain size; modified polyethylene glycol inhibits abnormal grain growth through steric hindrance, forming a uniform and dense coating structure; and sodium polydisulfide dipropane sulfonate promotes… The process involves reducing interfacial tension and refining grain size; tetrahydrothiazole copper sulfate further refines the grain size; low molecular weight small molecule proteins fill grain boundary defects and improve grain boundary bonding; through the synergistic effect of the above additives, it is possible to prepare lithium-ion battery copper foil with both high strength and low brittleness, with a tensile strength exceeding 600 MPa. After being folded and rolled at 180° by a 2 kg roller, there are no cracks and the tensile strength exceeds 450 MPa. This solves the problem of high strength copper foil being brittle and difficult to adapt to the expansion of silicon-based anodes in the existing technology, and is especially suitable for cylindrical lithium-ion batteries with silicon-based anodes.
[0032] Embodiments of the present invention also provide an application of lithium-ion battery copper foil in the negative electrode current collector of lithium-ion batteries. This lithium-ion battery copper foil is particularly suitable for silicon-based cylindrical negative electrode lithium-ion batteries, solving the problem that high-strength copper foil is brittle and difficult to adapt to the expansion of silicon-based negative electrodes.

[0038] Comparative Example 3 Step S1: Dissolve a clean 8mm copper wire in a copper dissolving tank with concentrated sulfuric acid of 99.95% or higher to obtain a high-concentration copper sulfate solution. The copper sulfate solution in the copper dissolving tank overflows into the sludge tank. After being pumped by the sludge pump, the copper sulfate solution in the sludge tank passes through a micron-level silica filter and a micron-level bag filter into the clean solution tank to obtain a pure electroplating solution. Step S2: Mix sulfonated hydroxyethyl cellulose, polyethylene glycol, octadecylamine polyoxyethylene ether, ethylene thiourea, collagen with a molecular weight of 3000 Da, and pure water to form solution A. The concentration of sulfonated hydroxyethyl cellulose in solution A is 2.6 g / L, the concentration of polyethylene glycol is 1.2 g / L, the concentration of octadecylamine polyoxyethylene ether is 1.6 g / L, the concentration of ethylene thiourea is 4.8 g / L, and the concentration of collagen is 24.0 g / L. Mix isothiourea propanesulfonic acid inner salt, sodium polydithiopropanesulfonate (both added in equal mass) and pure water to obtain solution B. The total concentration of brightener is 2.2 g / L. Add solutions A and B simultaneously to the clean liquid tank at a flow rate of 10 L / h. Step S3: After uniformly mixing solutions A and B with the pure electroplating solution, an electroplating solution is obtained (the concentration of polyol in the electroplating solution is 0.8 g / m³, and the concentration of brightener is 1.5 g / m³). This solution is then fed into the electroplating tank at a temperature of 51°C and a flow rate of 52 m³ / h. The current density is set to 6800 A / dm³. 2 After electroplating deposition on the surface of the cathode roller for about 24 seconds, a semi-finished copper foil is obtained after peeling. Step S4: Mix chromium anhydride, phosphoric acid and pure water to obtain an anti-oxidation solution. The concentration of hexavalent chromium ions in the anti-oxidation solution is 1.2 g / L, the concentration of phosphate ions is 1.3 g / L, the pH value is 1.82, and the temperature is 25℃.

[0040] 2. Folding test: Using a 2kg rubber-coated steel roller, the tensile strength is tested after folding and rolling the roller once. 3.

[0041] The test results of the lithium-ion battery copper foils prepared in each embodiment and comparative example are shown in Table 1.
[0042] Table 1 The XRD patterns of the lithium-ion battery copper foil prepared in Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 are shown below. Figure 2 As shown, Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, compared with the grain color of the lithium-ion battery copper foil prepared in Comparative Example 1, the grain color distribution of the lithium-ion battery copper foil prepared in Example 1 is more uniform, and its brittleness is relatively lower; combined with Table 1, Figures 2-4 It can be seen that the tensile strength of Examples 1-3 all exceeded 600 MPa, and no cracks were observed after being folded and rolled by a 2 kg roller. The tensile strength after being folded and rolled by a 2 kg roller at 180° was all above 450 MPa. The elongation was ≥4% after heating at 140°C for 15 min, and the surface roughness Ra ≤ 0.25 μm, indicating that the embodiments of the present invention successfully achieved a combination of high strength and low brittleness. Comparative Example 1, lacking modified polyethylene glycol, showed a decrease in tensile strength to 205 MPa after being folded and rolled by a 2 kg roller at 180°, indicating the importance of the synergistic effect of the additives. Comparative Example 2, without using a stepped annealing process, showed a decrease in tensile strength to 385 MPa after being folded and rolled by a 2 kg roller at 180°, indicating that the stepped annealing process helps to control strength and brittleness. Compared with Comparative Example 3, the embodiments of the present invention showed a 20% increase in tensile strength and solved the problems of bending cracks and large decrease in tensile strength after being folded and rolled by a 2 kg roller.
