Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electrolytic copper foil, in particular to a cathode roller surface treatment device capable of reducing edge tearing. Background Art
[0002] Lithium battery copper foil is widely used in lithium-ion batteries and other fields due to its good ductility and high conductivity. In the production process of lithium battery copper foil, there are three main processes: copper dissolving, electrolytic foil making, and slitting and packaging. When copper foil is electrodeposited on the surface of the cathode roller, its electroplating efficiency and deposition effect are easily affected by the surface morphology of the cathode roller.
[0003] Edge tearing is a common problem in the production process of lithium battery copper foil. It refers to the situation that when the copper foil is peeled off from the surface of the cathode roller, the foil tears from the edge to the middle of the foil, which directly leads to broken foil and inability to be rolled up normally. After the edge tearing, the residual foil adheres to the surface of the cathode roller and enters the electrolytic cell as the cathode roller rotates, which can easily cause a short circuit between the cathode and anode of the electrolytic cell, causing a major accident. The main reason for the edge tearing of the copper foil is that when the foil is peeled off from the surface of the cathode roller, the bonding force between the copper foil and the edge of the cathode roller is too large. There are many reasons for the excessive bonding force, such as electroplating edge effect, copper plating on the titanium edge of the cathode roller, uneven copper foil deposition, etc. To address this problem, a cathode roller surface treatment device for reducing edge tearing is provided.
