Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of battery separator technology, specifically to a PBI crosslinked modified PET composite film, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] In fields such as new energy batteries and chemical storage and transportation, PET (polyethylene terephthalate) materials are widely used due to their excellent mechanical properties, barrier properties, and processing performance. However, PET materials are prone to corrosion in electrolyte environments, leading to a decline in material performance and even posing safety hazards. For example, in lithium-ion batteries, organic solvents and fluorides in the electrolyte can corrode PET separators or packaging materials, affecting the battery's cycle life and safety.

[0003] Existing technologies improve the electrolyte corrosion resistance of PET by preparing a coating layer or performing composite modification on the PET surface. For example, patent CN115320206B improves corrosion resistance by constructing a multilayer polyester structure, but the effect is still not ideal. Therefore, this invention proposes a PBI crosslinked modified PET composite film, its preparation method, and its application to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a PBI crosslinked modified PET composite film, its preparation method, and its application, so as to solve the problems raised in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: A method for preparing a PBI crosslinked modified PET composite film includes the following steps: S1: Mix PET masterbatch and PBI (polybenzimidazole) at 50~80℃ for 5~10min, melt blend at 260~280℃ and 200~400rpm, and extrude at 230~250℃ to obtain PBI crosslinked PET composite material. S2: The PBI crosslinked PET composite material is processed and shaped to obtain a PBI crosslinked modified PET composite film.

[0006] In the above technical solution, the PBI molecular backbone contains benzimidazole repeating units, exhibiting excellent heat resistance and chemical stability. During melt blending, PBI acts as a crosslinking agent, chemically crosslinking to form a three-dimensional network structure. This crosslinked structure effectively prevents corrosive substances in the electrolyte (such as organic solvents and fluorides) from penetrating into the PET material, thereby improving its corrosion resistance.

[0007] Furthermore, the mass ratio of PET masterbatch to PBI is (90~100): (1~10).

[0008] Furthermore, the PBI crosslinked PET composite material also contains 1-2 parts of antioxidant, 2-3 parts of lubricant, 15-20 parts of nano-aluminum phosphate, and 6-10 parts of graphene.

[0009] Furthermore, the antioxidant is 1010.

[0010] Furthermore, the lubricant is pentaerythritol stearate.

[0011] Furthermore, the viscosity of the PET masterbatch is 0.65~0.85 dL / g.

[0012] Furthermore, the molecular weight of the PBI is 50,000~100,000 g / mol.

[0013] Furthermore, in step S2, the specific process of the forming is as follows: by casting film, biaxial stretching, and heat setting, a nascent film is obtained, and then processed to obtain a PBI crosslinked modified PET composite film; the stretching temperature is 110~120℃, the stretching rate is 120~130mm / s, the heat setting temperature is 210~220℃, and the stretching ratio is 3:1.

[0014] Furthermore, the thickness of the PBI crosslinked modified PET composite film is 4.5~5.0μm.

[0015] Furthermore, the nano-aluminum phosphate undergoes surface modification, and the modification process is as follows: Step 1: Add nano-aluminum phosphate to an aminosilane coupling agent solution, disperse, react at 50~60℃ for 4~6h, centrifuge, wash, and dry to obtain aminated nano-aluminum phosphate; Step 2: Add aminated nano-aluminum phosphate to ethanol and disperse at 70~80℃. Then add maleic anhydride and heat to 110~120℃. React for 2~3 hours. After the reaction is complete, centrifuge and dry to obtain maleimide nano-aluminum phosphate. Step 3: Add maleimide nano-aluminum phosphate to DMF (N,N-dimethylformamide), disperse at high speed, add diallyl bisphenol A, stir evenly, react at 70~80℃ for 2~3h, then add diphenylmethane diisocyanate, continue stirring, after the reaction is completed, centrifuge, dry to obtain modified nano-aluminum phosphate.

[0016] Furthermore, in step one, the aminosilane coupling agent solution is a 20-25 vt% ethanol solution, and the ethanol solution is a 75-90 vt% deionized aqueous solution.

[0017] Furthermore, in step one, the aminosilane coupling agent is 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane.

[0018] Furthermore, the mass ratio of the aminosilane coupling agent solution to nano-aluminum phosphate is (5~10):1.

[0019] Furthermore, the mass ratio of aminated nano-aluminum phosphate, maleic anhydride, and ethanol is 1:(1.2~2):20.

[0020] Furthermore, the mass ratio of diphenylmethane diisocyanate, diallyl bisphenol A, maleimide nano-aluminum phosphate, and DMF is 0.85∶1∶(1~3.5)∶20.

[0021] In the above technical solution, the present invention utilizes the hydrolysis of the methoxy group in the 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane molecule to generate silanol groups. The silanol groups undergo a dehydration condensation reaction with the hydroxyl groups on the surface of nano-aluminum phosphate to form Si-O-Al or Si-OP covalent bonds. The amino group is grafted onto the surface of nano-aluminum phosphate to form active sites. The amino group undergoes an addition reaction with the anhydride ring in maleic anhydride, and the amino group attacks the carbonyl carbon of the anhydride to generate an imide bond. Then, diallyl bisphenol A is introduced, and its allyl group undergoes an addition reaction with the double bond in maleimide to generate a six-membered ring structure. The hydroxyl groups on the six-membered ring structure further react with isocyanate to form urethane, resulting in a composite nano-aluminum phosphate structure coated with an organic polymer. This significantly improves the thermal stability and flame retardancy of the filler nano-aluminum phosphate. The long chain structure in the polymer molecular chain forms a steric hindrance structure on the surface of the aluminum phosphate particles, which can effectively prevent secondary agglomeration of nanoparticles, improve dispersibility, and improve the compatibility of nano-aluminum phosphate with PET masterbatch during melt blending.

[0022] Furthermore, the graphene undergoes pretreatment before use, and the specific process is as follows: Step (1): Add aluminum oxide to Tris-dopamine hydrochloride solution and stir to react, to obtain polydopamine aluminum oxide; Step (2): Add graphene to tetrahydrofuran and disperse it at a high speed of 1200~2400r / min. Then add 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane and react at 30~40℃ for 4~6h. Centrifuge, wash, and dry to obtain pretreated graphene. Step (3): Add pretreated graphene and polydopamine alumina to ethanol, stir to react, centrifuge, and dry to obtain Al2O3-graphene.

[0023] In the above technical solution, alumina has good wear resistance and thermal stability. Combining alumina with graphene can enhance the mechanical properties and thermal stability of graphene. Through dopamine self-polymerization, a polydopamine coating layer is formed on the surface of alumina. Then, the graphene is pretreated by grafting amino groups onto the surface of graphene. The amino groups further form hydrogen bonds with the catechol hydroxyl groups or amino groups on the surface of polydopamine, resulting in a composite structure of alumina and graphene. The strong adhesion of polydopamine firmly forms an interface layer on the surfaces of alumina and graphene, which can effectively transfer stress and enhance the mechanical properties of graphene. At high temperatures, polydopamine can carbonize to form a dense carbon layer, which has a synergistic effect with nano-aluminum phosphate, enhancing the flame retardant properties of PET masterbatch and extending the service life of battery separators. The organic composite structure formed by dopamine self-polymerization has a synergistic effect with the modified nano-aluminum phosphate, enhancing the chemical stability of PET masterbatch, while effectively inhibiting the secondary agglomeration of nano-aluminum phosphate, making the filler in PET masterbatch more uniformly dispersed and improving the interfacial bonding force.

[0024] Furthermore, the mass ratio of alumina to Tris-dopamine hydrochloride solution is (1~2):20.

[0025] Furthermore, the mass ratio of graphene, 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, and tetrahydrofuran is 1:(0.3~0.5):10.

[0026] Furthermore, the mass ratio of pretreated graphene, polydopamine alumina, and ethanol is (0.1~0.2):1:20.

[0027] Furthermore, the concentration of the Tris-dopamine hydrochloride solution is 10~12 mM.

[0028] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: 1. This invention modifies PET masterbatch by combining crosslinking agent PBI with PET masterbatch, thereby reducing the penetration of electrolyte into polymer chains and inhibiting hydrolysis and swelling. The high thermal stability of PBI may reduce the corrosion rate of electrolyte on PET at high temperatures, reducing the corrosion rate by more than 50% and extending the service life by 2 to 3 times.

[0029] 2. The modified PET material of this invention still maintains good melt flowability and processing performance, and is suitable for existing PET processing equipment.

[0030] 3. No toxic or harmful substances are used in the PET modification process of this invention, which meets environmental protection requirements.

[0031] 4. This invention utilizes 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane to graft amino groups onto the surface of nano-aluminum phosphate, forming active sites. The amino groups undergo an addition reaction with the anhydride ring in maleic anhydride, and the amino groups attack the carbonyl carbon of the anhydride to generate an imide bond. Then, diallyl bisphenol A is introduced, and its allyl group undergoes an addition reaction with the double bond in maleimide to generate a six-membered ring structure. The hydroxyl groups on the six-membered ring structure further react with isocyanates to form urethane, resulting in a composite nano-aluminum phosphate structure coated with an organic polymer. This significantly improves the thermal stability and flame retardancy of the filler nano-aluminum phosphate. The long-chain structure in the polymer molecular chain forms a steric hindrance structure on the surface of the aluminum phosphate particles, which can effectively prevent secondary agglomeration of nanoparticles, improve dispersibility, and improve the compatibility of nano-aluminum phosphate with PET masterbatch during melt blending.

[0032] 5. This invention combines alumina and graphene. The strong adhesion properties of polydopamine firmly form an interface layer on the surfaces of alumina and graphene, effectively transferring stress and enhancing the mechanical properties of graphene. At high temperatures, polydopamine can carbonize to form a dense carbon layer, which synergistically interacts with nano-aluminum phosphate to enhance the flame retardant properties of PET masterbatch and extend the service life of battery separators. The organic composite structure formed by the self-polymerization of dopamine synergistically interacts with the modified nano-aluminum phosphate to enhance the chemical stability of PET masterbatch, while effectively inhibiting the secondary agglomeration of nano-aluminum phosphate, resulting in more uniform dispersion of fillers in PET masterbatch and improving interfacial bonding.

[0049] Samples were prepared from the PET composite films obtained in Examples 1-10 and Comparative Examples 1-4, and their performance was tested and the test results were recorded.

[0050] Tensile strength and elongation at break: Using ASTM D882 as the reference standard, an electronic universal testing machine was used. The test conditions were: gauge length 10 mm, tensile speed 50 mm / min, width 15 mm. Tensile strength and elongation at break were determined. Flame retardancy test: Using UL94 as the reference standard, ignite the sample, then remove the ignition source, record the flaming burning time, and classify the flame retardancy of the sample according to the burning situation.

[0052] Based on the data in the table above, the following conclusions can be clearly drawn: The PBI crosslinked modified PET composite films obtained in Examples 1-10 were compared with the PET composite films obtained in Comparative Examples 1-4. The test results show that: A comparison of Examples 1-10 with Comparative Example 1 shows that the PBI crosslinked modified PET composite film of the present invention has excellent resistance to electrolyte corrosion, mechanical properties and thermal stability, which are far superior to ordinary PET film. The present invention achieves a synergistic effect by crosslinking the molecular chains of PBI and PET and adding functional materials such as nano-aluminum phosphate and graphene, which significantly improves the electrolyte corrosion resistance, mechanical strength and thermal stability of PET film.
